On the USB drive?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivan Reed stepped back in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the ground, Squid screamed a few painful cries, his complexion already pitch black.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Deadly poison! Touch it and you die!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marco Pendleton took a deep breath and waved his hand, “Take him out, and don’t touch him at all costs!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several bodyguards put on gloves and carefully dragged Squid out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is too much…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivan Reed sat in the chair, his heart still racing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he had touched the USB drive just moments ago, he would probably have been poisoned to death!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brown Bread?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Jaxston, who had heard the news, rushed into the room and immediately saw the image on the screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You know him?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marco Pendleton looked at his senior disciple and said, “Do you know this person?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fabian Percival’s personal bodyguard, Brown Bread!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jaxston pointed at Brown Bread on the screen, “It’s him, sitting in the same car as Luciano Michael and Miss Elwood Thorneycroft!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well played, Fabian Percival! To think you dared to play such a scheme on me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivan Reed gently stroked his bald head, a cold smile appearing on his lips, “Since that’s the case, I ought to send you a gift as well!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Marco Pendleton!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your subordinate is here!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marco Pendleton, dressed in a long robe, stood out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Eliminate a few of Fabian Percival’s confidants for me!
