“You are so bad!” Lumi blushed and hit Ryan on the chest. She knew what he meant.
They sorted their clothes, and the serious look returned to Lumi’s face. She opened the door. “Come in, Patricia.”
Patricia entered, feeling a little embarrassed as she glanced at Ryan.
Lumi walked behind the desk and put the bills into a paper file before handing it to Patricia. “Ryan will go to Newlane Logistics to ask for the twenty-million-dollar arrears. You go with him. Well, I am worried about him going there alone.”
Patricia took the file in her hand and glanced at Ryan in bewilderment. “You, Mr. Fletcher?”
What was Ryan thinking? She could not believe that he volunteered to ask for money back from Newlane Logistics. In case he did not know, Newlane Logistics has owed money for many years. Mears Corporation had exhausted every avenue and even sent their security team to demand payment but to no avail.
There were some influential people behind Newlane Logistics. So Mears Corporation could do nothing about it.
“Let’s go, Patricia,” Ryan said after nodding at Lumi.
While leaving the president’s office, Patricia offered to drive her car. Ryan had no objection. After all, driving an eight-million-dollar Maybach to collect debts would seem a bit too flashy.
When Ryan and Patricia left Mears Corporation in a car, a group of men in black inside a van outside the Mears Corporation building were looking through binoculars in the direction where Ryan and Patricia left and reported to the headset. “Mr. Moore, Ryan has just left Mears Corporation with Lumi’s secretary. It looks like they are really going to recover the money.”
“I know. Hmph! As long as he goes there, I will make sure he will not come back.” The one speaking on the other end of the phone was none other than Allan Moore. He was humiliated by Ryan while he was at Mears’ residence in the morning. While he was still wondering if he could get a chance to get even with Ryan, Ryan had given him the opportunity.

Half an hour later, Patricia and Ryan were less than 1,000 meters from the main gate of Newlane Logistics building in their car.
While driving, Patricia still tried to dissuade Ryan. “Should we just forget about it and turn back, Mr. Fletcher? I know you do this for Miss Mears, but the possibility of the two of us getting any money back from Newlane Logistics is as good as zero.”
Ryan tilted his head and glanced at her. “You don’t trust me, Patricia? Never try, never know.”
While the two were talking, the main gate of Newlane Logistics building was within sight.
On normal days, there were only a couple of security guards guarding the main gate. But now, there were at least 70 or 80 heavily armed men gathering there with weapons in their hands.
Patricia slammed on the brakes and stopped the car on the road shoulder at seeing this situation. “Look, Mr. Fletcher, they must have expected our coming to demand for payment and hired thugs to wait for us. Those guys are ruthless. We had better turn around.”
There was a reason for Patricia’s fear. The last time when she and Lumi came demanding payment, a few security guards of Newlane Logistics nearly groped them. So she could not be warier when she saw a situation like this.
Ryan was not surprised at all that Newlane Logistics was expecting them.
“What are you afraid of, Patricia? Step on it and slam through the gate.” He said nonchalantly.
“What? Slam through the gate? There are so many people there!” Patricia was taken aback.
The two were less than 200 meters away from the company’s gate. Among the group of thugs, four or five were walking towards Patricia’s car with steel pipes.
Ryan shook his head and looked at Patricia as if he couldn’t even with her. “Let’s swap our positions, Patricia.”
While speaking, he reached to wrap his hand around her waist. Before she could even know what was going on, she found herself having swapped positions with Ryan, with Ryan sitting behind the wheel.
Release the handbrake, put in first gear, and step on the accelerator.
Everything was done in one fell swoop, with no hesitation. “Sit tight, Patricia.”
The next moment, the car roared and sped toward the gate of Newlane Logistics building.
Four or five brawny men wielding steel pipes in their hands extended their arms and stood in the way as they tried to stop the car. “Stop the car! I said stop the car! You idiot! Didn’t you hear?”
Sitting next to Ryan and seeing he had no intention of slowing down, Patricia was panicking and clinging to the door handle next to her with both hands. “Slow down, Mr. Fletcher. We are going to crash!”
The corner of Ryan’s mouth curled up as he ignored Patricia and continued to put the pedal to the metal. He had no hesitation when slammed toward the four or five guys in front.
Seeing that Ryan was a daredevil, those brawny guys standing in the way finally wimped out.
“D*mn it! He is crazy!” Several burly guys hurriedly rolled aside to the ground, barely avoiding the speeding car from hitting them.
Ryan drove Patricia’s Audi and slammed through the glass door of Newlane Logistics’ building into the company’s lobby hall, like a bull ran into a porcelain shop.
Because of the inertia, after the car drove into the company lobby, it crashed into several tables before it stopped in the middle of the lobby.
Everyone was stunned and could not say a word.
