Chapter 17

A middle–aged man with thick brows and large eyes was seated in Room 5, located on the second floor. “Who‘s this young man downstairs?” 

“I‘m not really sure. However, he‘s sitting next to Zachary, and he seems very close with Zachary‘s granddaughter. It‘s possible that he‘s the boyfriend of Zachary‘s granddaughter,” reported the subordinate standing next to him. 

“Send someone to inform Zachary to yield the item out of respect to me, Howard Rosweld. The Bocca Fruit is of utmost importance to me.” 

The subordinate turned around in preparation to dispatch the order. 

Howard called out to him and said, “If he doesn‘t give up, tell him that Sir Osborn wants it.” 

“Yes, sir.” 

A steward–looking man made his way to Kayson. 

Zachary‘s expression turned solemn upon hearing the message. Soon afterward, he said,” Please help me reply to Mr. Roswell that we need the Bocca Fruit to save a patient‘s life, so we can‘t yield.” 

Upon hearing, the steward said in all seriousness, “Mr. Ewell, Sir Osborn wants the Bocca Fruit.” 

Zachary‘s pupils constricted abruptly. He declined persistently initially, but he expressed his hesitation in the meantime

“Mr. Ewell, I‘m sure you understand Sir Osborn‘s power. The item auctioned on the stage may be important but are you and your granddaughter‘s lives more important than that little item?” 

It was a modest threat

Kayson took a glance at the steward and asked, “Are you from Room 5?” “Yes,” replied the steward nonchalantly. He needed to behave courteously to Zachary. 

However, he needed not to be respectful toward the young lad of unknown background.
