Chapter 59 Saving Face; Losing Ground

Vera struggled to shake off Brody

"Let go of me! I swear, if you lay a finger on us today, the Devil will chop you to pieces!"

Brody paused, surprised that this woman knew Shawn's name.

But then he laughed, thinking, how could Shawn possibly know someone like her?

"Ha! Nice try, trying to scare me. Go ahead and call him. Let's see if he even picks up for you!"

He shoved his phone in front of Vera, displaying Shawn's number.

"Go on, just hit send, and you'll connect with Mr. Cooper"

Seeing the situation before her, Vera realized that without Robin stepping in, there was no way out of this.

Seeing the nervous expressions on Vera and the others, Brody concluded that what Vera had said earlier was just meant to confuse him. He pressed the call button for Shawn himself.

On the other end, the Devil's deep voice came through, "What's going on? Brody, what the hell are you. calling me for in the middle of the day?

Brody quickly started buttering him up. "Mr. Cooper, I know you've been resting and feeling bored lately, so I thought I'd bring you a couple of pretty girls to chat with. This one says she knows you. Just wanted to confirm.

He grinned at Vera, "Why don't you say a few words to Mr. Cooper? Didn't you say you knew him? Do you think you

can bluff me! Let's go. You're coming back with me to serve Mr. Cooper! Or you'll regret it for the rest of your life!"

A few of his buddies moved in to grab Vera and Alice, trying to pull them away.

In a panic, Vera shouted, "Robin, aren't you going to come help us?"

Robin had no intention of getting involved.

But thinking about how Vera came here with him, he felt a bit responsible.

He turned and walked up to Brody, snatched the phone away, and said into the mic.

"The Devil, huh? This is Robin. Are you looking to die?

On the other end, the Devil's tone changed instantly. "Mr. Ramsey, I had no idea it was you! Don't worry. I'll handle this right away!"

Robin tossed the phone back into Brody's lap, "Tell Devil to be at the Four Seas Entertainment World in an hour. If he's even a minute late, I'll take his life!"

With that, he turned and walked into the lobby.
