Larry took a deep breath. “Well, Mr. Jenkins, you might not believe me when I say this, but... General Cosmopolis sent this over himself. Didn’t you see his Hongqi L5 just now?”

“Besides, even if these documents were fake, the ones in the computer wouldn’t be! This is triple ‘S’ confidentiality we’re talking about!”

Oh my goodness!

Brent collapsed onto the sofa, utterly devastated.

Those four ba****ds! What made them think they could stir up trouble with the Great Marshal and get away with it?

Why did I even let myself get dragged into this mess?

“What are you waiting for, Mr. Jenkins? You should go and apologize to Mr. Williams!” Larry reminded him.

Oh, right!

Brent immediately took off running.

“Remember to keep his status a secret!” Larry yelled after him.

“Understood!” Brent hollered back.

Meanwhile, the four masters had Zeke surrounded, stopping him from making a run for it.


Zeke simply snickered.

What makes you think you can stop me?

Stop being so delusional!

At that moment, Brent barged into the room again, huffing and puffing.

Wayde spoke up before he could. “This guy tried to make a run for it, but we managed to stop him before he could do so. You should add another charge to his list!”

However, Brent simply slapped Wayde across the face and yelled, “Shut up!”

Everyone froze, their smug grins wiped off their faces.

What’s going on?

Why did he just do that?

However, Brent’s next move shook everyone to the core.

He turned to Zeke and bowed low. “Apologies, Mr. Williams!”

“We arrested you without a thorough investigation, so my subordinates and I are to blame for this situation. Please forgive us, Sir!”

“What’s the point of having laws in place when you can just solve everything with a simple apology?” Zeke asked coldly.

Brent bit his lip. “Mr. Williams, I am willing to resign over this matter.”

Compared to wealth and status, he would rather keep himself alive.

“That’s not necessary. You’re just doing your job,” Zeke stated. “However, my wife got a shock of her life when you arrested me. You’ll have to find a way to make it up to her.”

Brent heaved a huge sigh of relief and said, “Yes, Sir! I’ll send you home right now and apologize to Mrs. Williams!”

“Alright, let’s go.”

Wayde and the other masters were utterly confused.

What’s going on? Weren’t they going to send him to the detention barracks?
