Cyclops answered, “Of course not.”
Nancy was slightly baffled. “What does Zeke withdrawing from Atheville have to do with you letting us go?”
“Of course it does,” Cyclops replied.
“Zeke Williams’ development in Atheville is affecting our interests.”
Zeke glanced at Ryker with an amused gleam in his eyes. “I think it’s the interests of the Lewis family that is being
affected by me.”
“People are smarter than what you give them credit for. Everyone can clearly see your little agenda, so you can
drop the act and fess up.”
Ryker wore an indifferent look as he muttered, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Of course, he knew that Zeke must have long uncovered the truth that he was the one who had come up with this
conspiracy.
However, he could not admit to it.
If this guy has a recorder on him and I admit that I was the one behind this, he could use it to blackmail me.
Zeke drew in a long breath before saying, “What if I don’t want to withdraw from Atheville?”
Cyclops roared, “Arrogant fool! If you don’t withdraw, I’ll kill Nancy Hinton right here and now!”

“It would be a waste not to have a little fun with a beautiful woman like her.”
Ryker interjected, “Notwithstanding, if word spreads that the higher-ups of the Whiteridge tourist spot had colluded
with bandits, injuring a soldier in the process, your Linton Group will be sued.”
“Either withdraw from Atheville or allow an innocent citizen to die. Your choice.”
“I choose to destroy the bandits and the Lewis family,” Zeke nonchalantly stated.
F***!
Outrageous!
Cyclops flew into a rage. “You’re the one asking for death, so don’t say that I didn’t give you a chance!”
Nancy was dumbfounded. “Zeke, all they’re asking is for you to withdraw from Atheville, right? So just agree to do
it!”
“Which is more important? Our lives or money?”
“Both,” Zeke answered with a straight face.
Nancy was utterly speechless.
You can only choose one or the other!
Cyclops shouted to his men outside, “Come in and beat this guy into a pulp!”
To his surprise, there was no response.
Cyclops frowned and shouted again, “Where the hell is everyone? Get you a**es in here!”
“Coming!” Someone finally answered.
However, the person’s voice sounded slightly unfamiliar to Cyclops.
Thud, thud, thud...
Soon enough, one person after another was thrown into the cave, while the sound of them landing on the hard
ground reverberated throughout the enclosed area.
They were the men whom Cyclops had arranged to guard the cave, stationed outside.
Only, his men’s faces were beaten black and blue and had already passed out.
After all of his men were thrown in from outside, four muscular men entered together.
Four of them were none other than Lone Wolf, Sole Wolf, Wolf’s Greed, and Serpent!
F***!
Cyclops and Ryker were thrown into a panic.
These four people had actually gotten rid of Cyclops’ men in such a short amount of time.
The scariest part was that they had not even made a sound, so no one had noticed what was happening outside!
These four were so skilled that it was frightening!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCyclops was first to snap out of his momentary state of shock, and he quickly lunged towards Nancy.
As of now, Nancy was his only bargaining chip to get out of this alive.
Zeke also moved, the same time that he did.
Whoosh!
He seemed to vanish, before soon reappearing in between Cyclops and Nancy within a second.
He moved faster than lightning, so fast that the naked eye would fail, to catch his movements.
“Die!”
Cyclops whipped out a dagger, intending to stab Zeke with it.
When the dagger was inches away from penetrating Zeke, his leg flew out to kick Cyclops in the armpit first.
Splat!
A muffled sound was heard before Cyclops dropped the dagger in his hand; Zeke had snapped his arm with just a
kick.
Blood splattered in all directions.
Cyclops’ ear-splitting shrieks bounced off the cave walls.
Nancy’s jaw had connected with the ground.
He broke a person’s entire arm with just one kick. What in the actual f***?
