Chapter 605 A Fresh Start

605 A Fresh Start

Crowley had found himself in a taxi staring out of the window. Life felt a little crazy for him at the moment. He was an adult, one that was 35 years of age and had his career path quite set out.

He enjoyed his job, loved what he did and didn’t mind if he was to do it for the rest of his life. Which was why he found the current situation frustrating and strange. The car was filled with his belongings, all taken from his apartment, and he was leaving the city he had lived in for a long time, in order to head to a new place.

‘Slough, I can’t say it's a town that I have heard much about, but when I did some research it seems they have been in the news relatively frequently.’ Crowley thought. He wasn’t the type to focus on what was happening in the outside world, because he had dedicated everything he did, to his job, and now he had lost that.

‘Honestly, I don’t know much about the Howlers Group either, but it was too good of an offer, that I couldn't refuse.’

Crowley was thinking back to the phone call he had received. He was in a desperate situation, at the end of the day an adult needed money to live and get by. There were no benefits from the local government apart from housing in the even lower tier cities, which was a life that was hard to rise up from.

The Howlers were offering a high generous wage, one that matched what he had got form the AFA, which was hard to believe. A tier-3 town able to do such a thing, it seemed almost too good to be true.

What tipped him to accept the offer in the end, was the fact that it was, in a way, better than what the AFA offered. Giving him free accommodation and meals as well, and the job role was quite similar as well.

It was an offer he couldn't refuse, and if there was anything he needed, the man on the phone had stated that they would try their best to get it for him. Every bone in Crolwey's body was telling him that it was a scam, but while on the phone he had seen another rejection email and decided to give it a go.

When the taxi finally arrived in the town, turning and twisting his head, Crowley was left with awe. The roads didn’t have pot holes, the sidewalks were wide with aesthetic trees planted every so often, and the buildings were well maintained. Upstodatee from n(0)/ve/lbIn/.(co/m

‘This doesn’t look like any tier-3 town I have been to... this looks almost like a tier-2 city.’

Due to Crowley not being involved in the gang business, he only read the news that was available to the public, so he knew nothing about the fact that the Howlers controlled Notsburg as well as having partnerships with many of the other Tier-3 towns.

A lot of wealth had been placed to upgrade Slough, and when the annual GDP would be calculated, it would soon be recognised as a tier-2 city.

‘Maybe I didn’t make a bad decision after all?’ Crowley thought.

“Why... did I keep looking at her, have I seen her before? But I’ve never been to this town... that's impossible, maybe she was an AFA student?” Crowley thought, and ignored all that as he went to his room.

When the girl closed the door behind her, she started to rub her shoulders as she got chills all over her body.

“What's wrong, Amy?” White asked as she was busy watching tv.

“I think there’s some pervert on our floor, he wouldn’t stop staring at me.” Amy replied.

“A pervert in this building, I doubt it, but you never know these days.” White replied. “Speaking of, if he is a pervert, we should go to that class that Kai sent us. He told us to be there, that Self Defence class.”

“Oh, it starts tomorrow right?” Amy said. “Yeah, maybe it will be good, you never know what could happen. What are you watching anyway?”

Looking at the TV, it looked like an Altered match was going on. She never thought White would be into these things, but she was a strange girl.

“Introducing form the Town of Slough, our sparky fighter from the AFA with her debut match, XIN CLOVE!!!!” the TV announcer shouted.
