In fact, they had even witnessed deaths that were much more brutal than this one.


    It was the sheer violence of the murder that shocked these people, an inexplicable terror rising in their chests as they trembled before Wilbur.


    Someone sensed that things were off at once and rushed off to hide in a corner and call Demi.


    Very soon, the doors of the other department heads'' offices flew wide open.


    The department heads emerged, frowning at the sight of Wilbur and the now- headless assistant.


    Chastin walked out as well, roaring furiously at the sight before him. "What the f*ck are you doing, Mister Penn?"


    "I''m sure you know exactly what I''m doing," Wilbur smirked.


    Chastin was a man in his forties with tan skin. "I don''t know anything, but you''d better have a good exnation for why you just killed my assistant out of the blue."


    The other department heads walked over as well, stopping at a distance from the two men.


    Wilbur chuckled. "You ordered someone to kill me, but I''m the one who needs to provide an exnation? That doesn''t feel quite right, you know."


    Chastin''s expression remained unchanged. "When the hell did I do that? You''re just making shit up."


    "The marksman told me himself. He gave me your name. I know that you''re the only person behind this, but your name was the only one mentioned, and that''s why I''ming for you," Wilbur stated.


    Chastin sneered. "Where''s your proof? Bring that marksman here and we''ll clear the air."


    "He''s dead," Wilbur said nonchntly.


    Chastin''s expression darkened at once. "Which means you don''t have any proof! How dare you try and frame me!"


    "You know better than anyone here what you did," said Wilbur coldly.


    Chastin scoffed. "You''ve only been here for a few days, and you''re already using people of ridiculous things. Don''t you think you''re being a little disrespectful, especially to your seniors who have been here for a while?"


    "Are you saying you can ce a hit on me just because you''re my senior?" Wilbur''s expression grew colder by the second.


    The other department heads'' expressions were solemn as well. They looked at Wilbur coldly, and it was clear what their stance was from their looks alone.


    All the workers were staring at the few of them in shock as well, unsure of what had just happened.


    Nevertheless, it was clear that these department heads were picking on the new


    guy.


    Of course, the workers did not dare say a word and merely watched meekly. Just then, Demi came over with two of her men.


    "What''s going on here?" Demi nced at the assistant''s headless corpse on the ground coldly.


    Chastin was the first to speak up. "Madam Madres, Wilbur Penn killed my assistant and used me of trying to kill him out of nowhere, with no proof either. This is an act of great disrespect, Madam Madres, and I hope you get to the bottom of it so that justice is served."


    "Exactly. It''s so disrespectful of him to do something like that to people of high positions like us."


    "Wilbur really is crossing the line, acting out like this within just a few days of working here. How are we supposed to work in peace after this?"


    The other department heads spoke up as soon as Demi was here, dragging Wilbur through the mud.


    That was because they all knew that none of them would be any match for Wilbur in a fight.


    None of them would have benefitted if they had angered him just now and provoked him to kill everyone.


    Now that Demi was here, they had nothing to fear anymore.


    There was no way Wilbur would dare to kill in front of her, right?


    Thus, the others began to attack Wilbur together.


    To be honest, Chastin was pretty shocked himself.


    He was the first to learn of the failed assassination attemptst night.


    Wilbur was too good of a fighter, far exceeding their expectations.


    The silver lining was that both the marksmen had perished.


    There was no proof, thus Chastin did not hesitate to point the finger at Wilbur at once.


    However, right at that moment, Demi turned to Wilbur and asked, "Someone tried to kill youst night?"


    "Yes," said Wilbur.


    Demi frowned. "Do you have any proof that it was Chastin who did it?"


    A cold smirk appeared on Chastin''s face.


    All of a sudden, Wilbur threw a punch.
