Rena glanced at the furious George and couldn't help but worry. However, she didn't hesitate at all and quickly chased after David.
George looked at David's figure walking toward the door, and his heart was even more furious. This was simply challenging his authority!
The furious George immediately roared.
"Stop right there!"
Rena heard the roar that contained strong anger coming from behind and couldn't help but look at David in front of her.
If David didn't stop, she wouldn't stop either!
However, under her gaze, David, who had already walked to the door, stopped. This made her sigh in relief, but at the same time, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. If possible, she actually didn't want David to compromise. She still hoped that David would be like when she first joined the FBI, showing off his abilities and being fearless!
However, reality wasn't that simple after all. Not all problems could be solved as long as one was determined and fearless. Sometimes, people always had to learn to compromise.
Just as Rena was having mixed feelings, she saw David turn his head around and smile at George as he said loudly, "Don't worry, I'm not going to let you go.
"Director, when you get the Avengers, I will definitely help you capture Tony Stark!"
After David finished speaking, he looked down at Rena, who was surprised with a hint of excitement, and said gently.
"Let's go and eat. I'm hungry after this delay!"
Rena couldn't help but smile when she heard this. She nodded and said.
"Me too!"
The two looked at each other and smiled. Everything was understood without words.
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but quietly fall on George's dark face. Looking at David's appearance, it seemed that he was going to shed all pretense of cordiality with George. He didn't give him any face at all.
There weren't many opportunities to see Director George being humiliated, and most of them were happy to see it.
They just didn't know what George would do next. Everyone couldn't help but look forward to it.
George naturally felt the gazes of the people around him. He knew that if he couldn't suppress David today, his dignity would definitely suffer a great blow. Although these people couldn't rebel, it was inevitable that there would be many negative voices.
This development must be suppressed!
This was no longer just a matter between him and David. The other deputy directors should also be waiting to see him make a fool of himself. They wanted to find a chance to replace him, but he would never give them the chance!
George knew David very well. He knew what David was after, even though he didn't care about it.
Immediately, a cold light flashed in George's eyes as he spoke sternly to David.
"If you dare to walk out of this door today, you don't have to come to work tomorrow!"
Hearing George's threat, David couldn't help but stop.
For David, whose goal was to fight crime, George's threat hit him right where it hurt!
This was also the reason why David had been patient before.
As the director of the FBI's Los Angeles Branch, George did have the right to fire the agents under him. Even if he was a supervisory agent, as long as George was willing to pay, there would be no problem.
The fact that he was fired by the FBI would also be recorded in his file and become a stain. By then, even the local police wouldn't recruit him. The law enforcement department would completely close the door to him. He would no longer be able to fight crime legally as a law enforcement officer unless he was like the superheroes in the movies, wearing night clothes and being a "vigilante" not accepted by the law. This was not what David wanted.
Reina naturally knew this, so she just stood quietly behind him without saying anything. No matter what, she supported David's choice.
However, David only paused for a moment. Then, he pushed the door open and left with Reina without looking back!
If it was in the past, George's threat would have worked on him. But now, he was no longer the ambitious FBI agent who could only struggle in the face of oppression.
Now, he was a first-class agent of S.H.E.L.D.. He had the entire S.H.E.L.D. behind him. Stroking the S.H.E.L.D. badge in his pocket, David's heart was unprecedentedly firm!
Since Chen Mo said that he would help him solve George's problem, David believed that Chen Mo would be able to do it. This wasn't a blind trust, but a rational judgment made based on Chen Mo's strength.
Not to mention anything else, just the S.H.E.L.D. badge that could transform into a mechanical spider that Chen Mo gave him was enough to kill George. Of course, even if he didn't deserve to die, it wouldn't be a problem for him to stay in the hospital for a month!
Seeing David and Reina leave, George's face was as dark as the black agent next to him.
No one around him spoke. The hall was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
David's departure was equivalent to slapping George in the face in front of dozens of FBI agents. George could guess that in less than an hour, this incident would spread throughout the entire branch. Everyone would know about it, and his prestige would take a huge hit.
George gnashed his teeth in hatred as he watched David leave in a carefree manner. A ferocious look involuntarily appeared in his eyes.
Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!
David, you'll pay for everything you've done today!
…
On the other side, David and Reina walked side by side to the car parked on the side of the road. Reina looked at David's side profile, and a look of worship and infatuation appeared on her face. This was the boss that she had always liked!
He hadn't changed at all. He was still the unyielding and fearless man from before!
David walked directly to his car, opened the door, and got in. Reina didn't drive her own car. Instead, she opened the door of the passenger seat and got in.
After fastening her seat belt, Reina couldn't help but turn to look at David and said worriedly.
"Boss, tomorrow …"
David looked at Reina's worried look and couldn't help but smile.
"Don't worry. You know that I'm not an impulsive person. You'll know tomorrow."
Hearing this, Reina took a deep look at David to make sure that he wasn't comforting her. Then, a bright smile appeared on her face. She no longer mentioned the incident just now and said with a smile.
"Then let's set off quickly. I'm really hungry!"
David smiled and nodded. He immediately started the car, put it in gear, and stepped on the accelerator. The car suddenly started and sped forward.
Reina felt the strong acceleration, but she couldn't help but turn to look at David with a bright smile on her face. It was as if she had returned to the time when she had just joined the FBI and was taken on a mission by David.
