Jessie panicked. She wanted to put a stop to this madness, but one of the men slapped her across the face, making
her see stars.
An employee hurriedly hauled Jessie up to prevent her from being brutally attacked again.
In less than ten minutes, mayhem descended upon Grand Empire Group.
Many of the employees were injured and bleeding all over the floor.
Jessie had broken down into tears. “Hurry. Call Mr. Williams over to get everything under control.”
Her assistant frantically pulled out a phone and dialed Zeke’s number before passing it to Jessie.
Jessie sniffled as she spoke, “Mr. Williams, come to Grand Empire Group, quickly. A group of men are causing
trouble here. They’re smashing things and hurting the employees.”
At that very moment, Zeke was at Linton Group discussing with Dawn the best way to explain to Lacey about the
extra eight billion that had been transferred to them later on.
They were in the midst of a heated discussion when his phone rang with a call from Jessie.
After listening to her, Zeke turned livid and slammed his fist on the desk.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe desk cracked from the force of it.
“Mr. Quin is a fool. If he had some brains, he would’ve realized I’m not someone he should mess with based on
what happened to Gavin Zachary. Instead, he regrouped and came at me again? I’ll crush him once and for all this
time.”
He then said to Dawn, “Dawnie, you go ahead an explain to Lacey about the eight billion. Just don’t rat me out.”
He got to his feet with a solemn expression. “I have to go to Eastend to settle an urgent matter.”
Dawn’s curiosity was piqued. “What’s the urgent matter, Zeke?”
“Some people are bullying my employees, so I’m going to beat those dogs up,” Zeke replied matter-of-factly.
Dawn was a smart girl, so she instantly understood what he was about to do.
She quickly grabbed a mop from the side. “Zeke, this is the international dog-beating tool. I wish you all the best.”
Zeke rolled his eyes at her and replied in a dry tone, “Very funny.”
As soon as Zeke left, Lacey walked in. She immediately noticed the prominent crack in the middle of the desk. It
was a result of Zeke’s violence.
“Huh? Dawnie, what happened to your desk?”
Dawn answered with the first thing that came to mind, “Oh, nothing. A large piece of hail fell from the sky just now,
and it cracked my desk.”
Lacey was bewildered.
The 403 Highway was the only main road from Rivermouth to Eastend.
At that moment, a large group of men waiting to ambush Zeke hid behind two mounds on both sides of the road.
This group of people consisted of Twelve and his men.
The moment Zeke’s car drove past the border and entered Eastend, Twelve waved his hand and ordered,
“Brothers, seal the border immediately.”
“No one is allowed to enter! No one!” He emphasized. “Let’s cut off his escape route and kill him off today, just like
fish in a barrel.”
Hundreds of his men immediately set up roadblocks on the main road, sealing off the border to any incoming cars.
Zeke arrived at Grand Empire Group soon after.
Eleven and his men had already left by then.
Upon seeing the mess at Grand Empire Group, Zeke was beside himself with rage.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe assistant director, Jessie, timidly stepped forward. “Mr. Williams, I’m very sorry. I failed to protect Grand Empire
Group and its employees.”
“It’s not your fault... Wait. You’re injured too?” Zeke frowned when he saw the blood on her.
Jessie sighed defeatedly. “This is nothing compared to the losses suffered by Grand Empire Group. Mr. Williams, our
top priority is to restore the company’s operations. Don’t worry about me.”
Zeke lit a cigarette and took a long drag from it before announcing, “Everyone, please rest assured. You can count
on me to avenge all of you for what happened today. Those of you who are injured, head to the hospital to get
yourselves treated. The company will reimburse all the costs in full. As for the remaining employees, stay back and
help clean up the mess. Let’s continue with company operations.”
Everyone stood their ground, motionless.
In truth, their injuries weren’t severe. They didn’t need to be treated at the hospital.
All of them wanted to stay back and restore the company with Zeke.
However, in the end, under Zeke’s insistence, the injured went to the hospital to be treated.
