Cole looked down at Peter and shook his head. "It's hard to say for now. But even if someone rich wanted to hurt Mr. Fuller, someone poor would execute it. In other words, all the workers here will be removed."

"Did Charlotte agree to this?"

"She doesn't know about this."

Zoe smiled and shook her head. "You and Mr. Fuller are really arrogant. Clearly, you have a better way to solve this."

"It's safer."

The business industry was cruel and cold. Even if they had a better way, they would be willing to end everything just for the sake of safety. They seem to have no sentiment towards these workers. They can be easily sacrificed like grass.

Their lives were worth nothing. But Shane would arrange better jobs for them after ensuring they were not involved in this.

Soon, Cole's men caught four people, which were more than they thought. He asked his men to look after Zoe and Peter for the moment.

Outside the hospital ward, people walked back and forth. They were all bodyguards asked to guard them.

"Now I know what he meant just now. Even we are just chess pieces in his eyes," Peter said sullenly.

"It's also for our safety."

"Zoe, I've once heard of a joke. A blogger said she loved cats. Someone in the comments asked her, if someone said they loved you but decides what you ate every day and whether you can have kids, would you want to be with him? That blogger said she would be sick of him. Then, the person replied that her cat would be sick of her too."

Zoe laughed. It was indeed a good joke.

Peter sat down at the bed and crossed his arm when he noticed her mood turned better. "So you see, they did this for our safety but they've never asked for our opinion before."

"You seem to have a lot of resentment towards Cole."

"We are all poor people."

"We are not."

Zoe's words stunned Peter.
