“Yes, of course. We'll do that right away,” the martial artists responded with bated breath before leaving the scene
slowly.
Fortunately, he didn't take our lives. It's a miracle we're still alive.
None of them dared to question Zeke's decision.
A warrior as strong as Zeke had thousands of subordinates. He could ask anyone to find out their whereabouts
easily.
If they refused to do as told, Zeke would definitely take their lives.
“Oh, how weak,” Zeke remarked after taking another sip of tea. “Sheldon, do you have other tricks up your sleeve?
Show them now. If you're done, it's time for me to show my wrath.”
At a loss for words, Sheldon turned to look at his security guards carefully.
In response, they fled the scene without looking back.
Is he kidding us? The man managed to defeat ten martial artists easily. We won't be his match. We'd rather resign

Seeing that, Sheldon turned purple with rage.
Bunch of useless fools! How could they screw me up at such a critical moment? How heartless of them!
Meanwhile, Lucy was trying to sneak away.
Sheldon couldn't protect her, so she had no choice but to protect herself.
The only way for her to stay alive was to sneak away before anyone could realize it.
Unfortunately for her, Zeke wasn't about to let her off the hook that easily.
As his gaze landed on her, Lucy trembled in fear and halted in her tracks.
Zeke wanted Lucy to stay and wait for Rhett's arrival.
However, Lucy instinctively thought he wanted to take her life.
In a shaking voice, she warned, “Zeke, y-you can't harm me! Otherwise, I shall lodge a formal complaint with the
embassy...”
With a smile that did not reach his eyes, Zeke announced, “Sure, you can do that. Let's see if the embassy dares to
sanction me.”
Lucy couldn't hide her delight. “Are you sure I can call the embassy?”
“Of course,” came Zeke's calm reply.
“All right!”
Lucy hurriedly dug her phone out to call Yartran's embassy in Eurasia.
Sheldon was also secretly pleased.
Zeke must've lost his mind to agree to let Lucy inform the embassy about this. This will escalate into an
international dispute. No matter how capable Zeke is, he can't violate international law. He's doomed. I'm sure of it.
The call connected within a few rings.
Lucy wailed, “Help! I need help! An Eurasian is beating me to a pulp! Yes, I'm a Yatranian. My name is Lucy, and I'm
a manager at Mitxel Group from Yartran. Please, save me now! I'm going to die soon. I'm at Intercontinental
Group's hot spring resort right now. Hurry!”
After hanging up, Lucy regained her composure and provoked Zeke.

Eurasia won't be able to save you! If you want me to spare your life, apologize to me now. I might consider
forgiving you,” she said smugly.
Emma panicked instantly.
Zeke was an influential figure locally, but his powers were of no use beyond the country.
She couldn't imagine what the consequences would be if Lucy were to bring the matter to the international court.
At once, she said carefully, “Mr. Williams, things are getting out of control. Why don't we—”
Zeke cut her off. “Says who?”
Emma was surprised. “Do you mean it's still under your control?”
Zeke gave a curt nod. “Yep.”
Taken aback, Emma didn't know if she should trust Zeke.
In the end, she chose to trust Zeke, for he had never let her down.
In fact, the ambassador of Yartran's embassy, Jacques, was an old acquaintance of Zeke.
