“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 than fight against him! It's more important to stay alive!

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!”
