“He's the Great Marshal. The one who towers above everyone else in Eurasia. The Archduke who strikes fear into
the hearts of tens of thousands of enemies. The man who slaughters everyone in his way just like the Grim
Reaper!”
“I-I ended up making enemies of the Great Marshal... Oh my goodness! This can't be true. It just can't be.”
Rhett added, “There's no doubt that he's the Great Marshal. Otherwise, how else did you think Linton Group
managed to elevate itself to such heights within just a few short years? Or the fact that I treated Zeke with such
deference? Going forward, I'm sure you know what to do. If you continue to cause the Great Marshal grief, the
Mitxel family would be wiped out from the face of the Earth with a single word from him.”
Jared gulped. “G-Give me a moment to calm down. I need some time to gather my thoughts.”
With that, Jared walked into his room and locked the door behind him.

It wasn't until he splashed his face with cold water that he finally managed to calm down. Only then did he give
Warren a call, intending to inform the latter that he was backing out of their arrangement.
After all, he couldn't afford to get on the Great Marshal's nerves.
When the call connected, Warren's frosty voice rang out. “What is it? Do you have progress to report on our action
against Linton Group?”
Jared took a deep breath before replying, “Mr. Williams, I'm sorry to inform you that I won't be able to continue
helping you take down Linton Group.”
Warren exploded instantly, “B*stard! How dare you disobey me? Do you want me to kill you?”
“Mr. Williams, please calm down and listen to my explanation. Do you know Zeke's true identity? He's the Great
Marshal. Offending him would result in the deaths of the Mitxel family and its hundreds of members. In no way am I
exaggerating the situation to you.”
“And here I was, thinking that it was something major. Of course I'm aware that Zeke is the Great Marshal.
Otherwise, I wouldn't be bothered to take him on.”
Jared cursed repeatedly in his heart.
Why didn't you f*cking tell me from the beginning? Now, you have landed me in big trouble. Instead of beating
around the bush, you should've told me up front that you're trying to get me killed.
Jared responded, “Mr. Williams, I'm sure you've no illusions about the Great Marshal's power. Even with the Mitxel
family's influence, we would barely be able to lay a scratch on him. Therefore, I'm sorry—”
Warren demanded, “Jared, what's the meaning of this? Are you looking down on me?”
“Mr. Williams, please don't misunderstand my intentions. I just can't afford to offend the Great Marshal, that's all.”
“Therefore, are you also assuming that I can't afford to offend him too?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJared's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
What is Warren saying? Is he claiming to be the Great Marshal's equal? I-Isn't that unrealistic?
Although Jared was cognizant of Warren's capabilities, he knew that the latter was still some ways off when
compared to the Great Marshal.
Hence, he replied carefully, “Mr. Williams, are you saying that you can go toe to toe with the Great Marshal?”
“Haven't you noticed we have the same surname?”
His words intrigued Jared further.
Zeke Williams... Warren Williams... They do share the same surname...
All of a sudden, something occurred to Jared. He recalled finding Warren's face familiar the very first time they
met.
After giving it more thought, he realized that Warren and Zeke closely resembled each other.
Even though he had never met the Great Marshal, he had seen pictures of Zeke.
Can these two be brothers?
Jared inquired, “Mr. Williams, are you and the Great Marshal twins?”
“Technically speaking, we are the same person.”
