Logan was on the verge of a total breakdown.

All his hard work, including the trap he set up, had gone to waste because of Hades’ ‘revival’.

Now Zeke had leverage over him!

He refused to accept this fate!

Will I be oppressed and enslaved by Zeke for the rest of my life?

No! I will resist!

“It’s all because of Hadley Murphy! The f**king assassin whom she assigned me is a weakling. Not only that he failed to complete his mission, but he became a captive of Zeke. Now Zeke has dirt on me. Hadley Murphy should be responsible for this.”

Logan dialed Hadley’s number and blustered, “Hadley Murphy, where are you?”

“I’m picking up girls at the karaoke,” Hadley replied.

Logan exploded with rage, “What?! Karaoke? I’m in deep trouble because of you. And now you still have the mood to sing? You f**king ba****d! Get your ass here right now, I have something to discuss with you.”

Hadley mocked, “You’re defeated by Zeke Williams and now you’re blaming me for your incapability? Are you serious? You can’t blame gravity for failing to poop, can you?”

“Cut the bullshit.” Logan was growing impatient. “My plan would have been perfect if not for the stupid assassin that you assigned me. I don’t care. The assassin is held captive by Zeke, and you need to get rid of him. I will be under Zeke’s thumb so long as he still holds the assassin as his captive.”

“Don’t worry, I will get rid of that incompetent assassin myself,” Hadley gave her words, “Besides that, I’m planning to ruin Zeke Williams’ reputation. I lost everything because of him, and I won’t let him get away with this.”

Logan’s eyes glinted with excitement. “How are you going to do it?”

Hadley smiled and told Logan her plan through the phone.

Logan’s attitude changed instantly after listening to her plan. “Ms. Murphy, I’m impressed. Your helper is definitely more powerful than the underworld and military forces.” Then, he laughed maniacally and continued, “If your plan works, Zeke Williams will lose his foothold in the whole of Eurasia.”

“However, I can’t achieve it on my own. Logan, I need your help,” Hadley cut to the chase.

“You know Zeke Williams has dirt on me. If he finds out that I’m going after him, I’m afraid he will send the captive assassin to the military. I will be dead if that happens.” Logan hesitated for a while and said, “So, I can only help you in secret.”

Hadley was pleased. “Cool! You don’t need to show yourself, just bend the rules a little. As you know, I can’t expose myself as an assassin. Whereas your biggest advantage is that you can exercise your power and influence openly.”

Logan had the last word, “Deal.”

After ending the call, Logan made another two phone calls.

The first phone call was to a company under his name.

The second phone call was to a person named “Mr. Hoffman” in his contact list.

Meanwhile, Hadley stretched lazily and patted Emily on her waist.

Hadley’s touch gave Emily goosebumps. Emily was fine if any other woman touched her waist, but not Hadley since she knew of Hadley’s sexuality.

Emily pulled herself away and said, “Ms. Murphy, please behave yourself.”

Hadley laughed in amusement. “Chill, you’re not my cup of tea. You’re indeed good-looking and sexy, but your temperament is streets behind Lacey’s. In my eyes, you’re incomparable to a stunner like Lacey.”
