The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 2194

As one of several mansions in the entire Ocean City, Tatum Residence was still
brightly lit even though it was late at night.

All the high-ranking members of Tatum Corporation gathered in the meeting
room.

"Why is Crimson so much less efficient than before? Why is there no news for so
long? Have they killed Lennon?"

A grumpy member of Tatum Corporation asked with an annoyed face.

Most of the people present remained silent, but a few looked worried.

Word about Sky High Organization's incident had already spread, and Tatum
Corporation knew exactly how strong Optimus Security Services that Sean
founded was.

This time, they decided to hire assassins to take Sean out, and Tatum
Corporation chose Crimson Assassin Organization, the most powerful
organization in Ocean City, to be safe.

Thinking success of the mission would come soon after Crimson's assassins
struck, but there was unexpectedly still no news from Crimson after half the night
had passed.

Speaking of the assassin organization called Crimson, it had a great reputation in
the upper class of Ocean City.

Their reputation was nothing good, of course. Crimson Assassin Organization
repeatedly built its reputation with blood.

It was rumored that anyone in Ocean City could become Crimson's target if
Crimson was offered enough money, even if the target was a member of the
Lake family-the most powerful family in Ocean City.

"Crimson is an organization that will kill anyone if they paid enough money. While
Sean's Optimus Security Services is strong, Crimson and Sky High are worlds
apart!"

"That's right. Sky High is just a bunch of crafty thieves, and Crimson repeatedly
showed the world how powerful they are! Sean will never survive the night with
them assassinating him!"

"It would be best if Crimson could succeed. Sean has repeatedly struck Tatum
Corporation. If we don't get rid of him, he will soon bring down Tatum
Corporation!"

Everyone talked about Crimson's strength and Sean's definite death.

Perhaps affected by these remarks, several people who had been somewhat
worried before were no longer worried.

"Be quiet! Old Master's here!"

A man with a hurried look barged into the room and shouted at everyone present.
As soon as he spoke, the whole meeting room fell silent, and everyone looked at
the door with expectation.

In anticipation, an old man walked into the meeting room with an eagle-head
walking cane.

The old man's hair and beard were white, but he seemed energetic instead of
decrepit.

If members of other families in Ocean City were here, they would recognize the
old man at a glance.

The old man was named Christopher Tatum. He was the real head of Tatum
Corporation and the actual master of Tatum Corporation.

When Christopher was younger, he was also a famous heartless character in
Ocean City. However, as he grew older, he stepped down, which gradually made
the people in Ocean City forget the real owner of Tatum Corporation.

With Christopher's arrival, the meeting room, which was a little noisy before,
became silent immediately. Everyone looked excitedly at the old man sitting in
the main seat. It showed how respected the white-haired Christopher was in
Tatum Corporation.

"I was ready to retire, but I suddenly learned that someone is attacking Tatum
Corporation property.”

Sitting in the main seat, Christopher spoke slowly with his eyes slightly closed.
He was not loud, and his tone was also calm, but everyone in the meeting room
could feel pressure for some reason.

The legend famous in Ocean City decades ago for his cruelty had returned to
Tatum Corporation because of Sean.
