Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnd to smoothen things out, Arcus actually had no plans to shed blood. Instead, he would offer the carrot before the stick, by making contact with the Costners before deciding what to do with them.
Frank skimmed through Arcus' proposal before returning it to him. "I'm not worried about anything since I'm letting you take charge. Be bold-I'll be there if things get hairy." "Yes, Mr. Frankton." And with that, Arcus left Frankton Group, calling up sof his former BM Group colleagues and heading to Shanton in groups. After that, they rendezvoused in a mansion owned by Sue Fisher, as Arcus wanted to avoid any unnecessary attention. Moreover, he only brought around three hundred men, which was considerably outnumbered by the thousand or so martial artists under the Costners'mand.
Arcus was not afraid however, as he doubted that they were that eager to burn bridges! Still, sof Arcus' colleagues were left confused by this entire operation. "Why would you do something that has so little payoff? If we fail, Jada and her cabal will mock us!" After all, the Cerulean Summit Legion postured themselves with superiority just because they were more experienced and had joined Frank earlier. If BM Group messed up this operation, the Cerulean Summit Legion would not let them hear the end of it.
Arcus did not think so. "You're right that we joined Mr. Frankton later than they did, and that is why the Cerulean Summit Legion belittles us. But that's also exactly why we should prove ourselves—after we do and they continue to mock us, it's Mr. Frankton they'd have to answer to." Chapter 2377 1 Meanwhile, Arcus had already surveyed Shanton and had quickly arranged for his men to infiltrate various locations.

And knowing that he was an insignificant pawn, Arcus took the initiative to greet Derek. "Your reputation precedes you, Mr. Costner. You are as young as you are successful." Derek sniffed-he would not be here if not for Pat. In his mind, only Frank was his equal, while everyone else was not on his level- not even Jada.
Arcus certainly knew what Derek was thinking and went for the jugular. "I heard you prioritize success over all else, and you're known to be incredibly rational. Perhaps you shouldn't mess up the big picture over sminor annoyance." Derek smirked, as he understood what Arcus was getting at—so that was why Frank would send this kid.
He may appear unassuming and BM Group remained a fringe outfit in Lugh's clique, but he knew how to push a man's buttons. "Take a seat!" Derek said, taking the main seat while beckoning at Pat and Arcus.
As the tsat, Derek said, "Frankton Group is most wee if this is a strictly business relationship-even an acquisition is negotiable. However, we won't be reduced to lapdogs! "That being said, we know our place, and we're not about to get in Mr. Frankton's way. Money talks-which is why my family is fully focused on making money.
