The Rise of a Master It Starts With Rejection novel Chapter 402

Chapter 402 

If Robert had known he would be helping Pierce against Felix, he would not have come for anything. 

Pierce was dumbfounded. He could not believe Felix could make Robert leave so obediently. Robert came from a prestigious background too. While not as wealthy as his father, he had other significant influence. How was this possible? 

“Break both his legs. Tell Andrei to come collect him,” Felix ordered, 

“Yes!” Luis was deeply impressed. Hearing about something was one thing, but witnessing Felix make Pierce’s backup retreat with just a word was truly eye–opening 

At sunset, Andrei listened to the report with furrowed brows in the Hawkins residence. So, Robert just left? That hot–headed kid is usually so impulsive. Why would he leave like that?” 

His subordinate shook his head. “Not sure. From what we saw, Robert seemed terrified of Felix. He left without a peep.” 

Andrei fell silent and went deep in thought. His subordinate prompted, “Mr. Hawkins Senior, what about Mr. Pierce? Felix’s people delivered a message. They want you to collect him personally.” 

Still silent, Andrei stroked his chin. His original plan was to involve Robert, a martial artist from an influential family. If he could pit Felix against the Sharkey family, he could fulfill his promise to Perry while staying clear of it all. 

Losing an illegitimate son would be a small price. But now his calculations had completely backfired. “Get Theodore here.” 

“Yes!” 

Shortly after, a broad–shouldered middle–aged man entered. “You called for me, Mr. Hawkins Senior?” 

Theodore was the Hawkins family’s head of security and a martial artist himself. He had reached the level of Martial Emperor. If Andrei had not happened to save Theodore’s life years ago, someone of his status would not possibly be able to hire a Martial Emperor as his bodyguard. 

“Go bring Pierce back.” 

“Alright!” 

As he turned to leave, Andrei added, “Take the black token just in case. Felix doesn’t seem

like an ordinary guy.” 

After a pause, Theodore asked, “What if they resist and refuse to hand him over?” 

Andrei smiled. “The black token is for any surprises they might have. If there are none… well, you know what to do.” 

“Understood.”
