Robert yelled, “I have nothing to tell you when you can't even honor your promise of killing Zeke! Please leave at
once! If not, I'll get others to show you the way out!”
Wendy let out a long sigh and aimed at him with her gun while announcing nonchalantly, “I am not a fan of
violence, but I guess you leave me no choice. If you don't answer my question, I'll send you to hell in a few
minutes.”
Robert's mind was all over the place, but he managed to calm himself a few seconds later.
He thought there was no way Wendy would shoot him when she was at the headquarter of United Group. If she
really did, there was no way she could leave unscathed once she was surrounded by his men.
Thus, Robert repeated himself arrogantly, “Is that a threat? I'll never allow you to—”
Wendy pulled the trigger and fired a shot at the arrogant man's stomach, rendering him speechless with the
racking sensation. As a result, blood gushed out of his wound.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSubconsciously, the injured man tried to stop himself from bleeding, but his effort was to no avail.
In the end, he ended up shrieking in pain and convulsing against his will, all while staring at Wendy with his eyes
widened.
She's insane! I can't believe she has the guts to shoot me when she's in my office! Isn't she afraid I'm going to take
her into custody?
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Someone knocked on the door and asked, “Sir, what's going on? Is everything fine? We heard someone firing a shot
a few seconds ago! Are you still in the office?”
The shot had alarmed the security guards on duty outside of the office. They rushed over to check on Robert a few
seconds after the incident took place.
Wendy inched over with her gun while grinning. She whispered, “I'm sure you know what you're supposed to do,
don't you?”
Since his life was at stake, Robert knew it wouldn't be wise to challenge Wendy unless he had a death wish.
Therefore, he resisted the racking sensation he felt and yelled, “Just leave me alone until I summon all of you!”
Shortly after Wendy ensured the security guards were no longer around, she repeated her question with a vicious
smirk, “Now, why don't you spit out the details?”
Gritting his teeth to brace himself through the pain, he gasped out his reply, “I-I sent someone to kill Zeke and...
those women around him! It's safe to assume they're dead!”
“Who have you sent to take them out?”
“It's a King Class warrior.”
Wendy burst out laughing and mocked, “Is that some sort of joke? Aren't you aware not even a million warriors of
King Class possess the capability to kill him? I'm almost certain the one on the way to hell is the man you've sent his
way!”
Robert was confused by Wendy's statement. She made it sound as if Zeke was undefeatable when Zeke's party was
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe defenseless one.
Why does it sound like you're the one trying to pull my leg? Stop exaggerating things and think so highly of Zeke
when he's just a nobody!
A few seconds later, Robert explained, “I hadn't sent him to challenge Zeke to a showdown. Instead, I sent him to
poison Zeke to death. In spite of his inhumane capabilities, there's no way he's immune to poison.”
Wendy thought Robert had a point. She queried to verify her speculation, “Are you certain?”
“Of course. If he's as almighty as you claim, I'm sure he has destroyed the entire place to get his revenge against
me. The fact I'm still alive means he's long dead.”
She put her gun aside and remarked, “Well, I guess you have quite a valid point. I'll allow you to roam free for the
time being since you're still useful in one way or another.”
Immediately after she wrapped up her conversation with him, she sneaked out of the man's office once again.
Robert craned over to pinpoint Wendy's location shortly after her departure. However, she was nowhere to be seen
anymore.
