CHAPTER 677 HOW MUCH POWER DOES HE HAVE
Jared's expression darkened because even a subordinate dared to speak to him this way, but then he thought about Gladius’ background and Northania’s Cross family's prowess and came to realize that it was not a wise idea to offend him. With that in mind, he kept his temper in check.
Centaur, along with the expressionless Minotaur, sat beside Gladius, while Jared sat at the passenger's seat, asking the chauffeur to start driving.
Jared's and Gladius’ men followed them in a huge fleet of black cars, and the huge ensemble attracted the attention of the passersby.
Gladius asked coldly, "I'd asked you to investigate where Nathan Cross is located. Have you done it already?" Jared nodded and replied, "Yes. They live in the Riverside area."
He then immediately lowered his voice and announced, "Mr. Cross, since you're here, | have something that | need to report to you.
Gladius squinted. "Go ahead!" Jared then told Gladius about how Nathan had made a few dozen outlets of Noblewoman Beauty in the South shut down. Noblewoman Beauty was the company built by Helen, and it had been doing relatively well lately.
However, in the eyes of the powerful Cross Family, it was not anything of significance, not receiving an inch of their care.
Despite that, Gladius was concerned about how Nathan could manage to mobilize the relevant authorities, shutting down a few dozen outlets in just ten minutes. This could only mean that Nathan was a very formidable person.
Ahint of concern flashed before Gladius’ eyes for the first time as he asked slowly, "How did Nathan Cross do that? How much power does he actually have?"
Jared pouted and uttered dismissively, "I'll be damned if Nathan Cross actually has any power. He's just a very cunning person. He reported us to the authorities because the 315 Consumer Rights Banquet was happening tonight, and that'd caused our shops to be shut down."
Jared then continued rather awkwardly, "He's not a very capable person, but on the other hand, his wife, Penny Smith, is a force to be reckoned with. She's the president of the Cross Group, and the Cross Group is a favored company in the South. A lot of political leaders give them preferential treatment as well."
Gladius felt relieved instead when he heard that, and he smirked and scoffed, "It seems like Nathan Cross is nothing to worry about. My mother had really overestimated him. If I'd known this earlier, | wouldn't have come here personally and | would've just sent some of my men over here. What a waste of my time! | could've been sleeping with more women!"
Jared immediately realized that Gladius was a vain man who enjoyed the company of women, so he immediately exclaimed, "Haha. Mr. Cross, you like pretty ladies, right? Then, you've come to the right place."
Gladius was stunned. "Why is that so?”
Jared grinned. "Nathan's wife is famous for her beauty in the business world, and she's prettier than most celebrities. On the other hand, Penny's cousin, Kylie Tonkins, is also a beautiful lady. The sisters are enough to make your trip worthwhile."
Jared then took out his phone, opened the Cross Group's official website, and showed Gladius Penny's and Kylie’s pictures.

He muttered in surprise. "Tsk tsk. They say the South is famous for their peau ladies, a dnow ChiioW yeah hat syigalijthe Sees The sisters lly are beautiful!

Centaur immediately sucked up to him, "Haha. Mr. Cross, you're about to enjoy the pleasures of killing your enemy and toying with your enemy's wife!" Upon hearing that, Gladius’ lips curled slightly upwards in an ambiguous smile.
On the other hand, Jared scoffed. He deliberately catered to Gladi
