The duo replied anxiously, “Ah! We've nothing to do with her. W-We're the common employees of Intercontinental

Group.”

Zeke snorted. “Pfft! You're good at telling cock-and-bull stories!”

Next, he whipped out his phone and clicked to play a voice recording. Surprisingly, it turned out to be the recording

made when Leanard and Rodney were flirting with Lucy.

In the face of the overwhelming evidence, Lucy was on the brink of an emotional breakdown. Oh my! I'll be

charged with committing a commercial crime! I'll be doomed!

Clenching his fists, Rhett growled, “Fine, Lucy. It never occurs to me that you would have the cheek to do so. I've

underestimated you! From now onwards, you're sacked by Mitxel Group! On top of that, I'll get someone to

investigate you. If we find out you're involved in fraud and embezzlement, you could be charged with that as well!”

“I...” Lucy blushed crimson with embarrassment and could not utter any words.

Rhett asked Zeke warily, “Mr. Williams, are you satisfied with my way of getting the matter resolved?”

Zeke shook his head. “No, I'm not.”

Perplexed, Rhett stuttered, “M-Mr. Williams, what do you want then? Could you please enlighten?”

Zeke raised his voice and retorted, “She not only humiliated me but also rebuked all the Eurasians. If you were me,

what would you do then?”

What? Rhett got all fired up in an instant. Good gracious! Does the foolish woman know who Zeke Williams is? He's

the respectable Dragon Master representing Eurasia and the nation's pride! By getting on Mr. Williams' nerves,

she's actually stepping on the toes of the whole of Eurasia! It's not as simple as a commercial crime. She could be

sentenced to execution because of that!

Rhett realized he must give it his all to get the matter resolved. If not, Mitxel Group might be in a precarious state.

In the worst scenario, they would even spell trouble for the whole of Yartran.

Temper flaring, he unleashed his wrath on Lucy. “Lucy, get your ass over here!”

Lucy dragged herself toward him, trembling with fear. “Mr. Rhett, I...”

Even so, the latter slapped her without a second thought.

The impact of the slap was so strong that she slumped on the ground with burning pain in her cheek.

Covering her cheek, tears welled up in her eyes as she yowled, “Mr. Rhett, didn't you feel that it's too much? No

doubt, I shouldn't have humiliated him. But he had slapped me earlier too. If you feel that's not enough, I can

apologize to him again. But you shouldn't treat me violently!”

Undeniably, she had been slapped a few times within a short span.

First, she was slapped by Zeke and next by Jacques, ambassador of Yartran's embassy in Eurasia. And now, it's Mr.

Rhett's turn to vent his anger on me! Pfft! Do you think I'm a worthless small fry that deserves all these?

Rhett bellowed, “Since you have the gut to humiliate Mr. Williams, I should've finished you off, let alone slapped

you! What're you waiting for? Get on your knees and beg for Mr. Williams' mercy!”

Lucy was nonplussed.

She recalled how Jacques burst a blood vessel after she humiliated Zeke. Meanwhile, Rhett also hit the roof

because of the same reason. Could it be this Zeke Williams is no ordinary man, so I've shot myself in the feet for

humiliating him?

She could not resist feeling a prickle of fear. Her gut instinct told her that she had dug her own grave by provoking

Zeke!

At the sight of Lucy as motionless as a statue, Rhett slapped her again. “What's the matter with you? Apologize to

Mr. Williams now!”

Thud!

Prevailed by intense fear, Lucy eventually dropped to her knees in front of Zeke. “Mr. Williams, please accept my

apology. I shouldn't have gotten on your nerves. If I'm not mistaken, there's an old saying in Eurasia that sounds like

this... a wise person tends to be magnanimous...”

Her voice trailed off when something came to her. Wait a minute! Why does it sound familiar to me? Oh yeah! I've

already apologized to him just now, haven't I? Why should I apologize to him again? If others turn up later, does it

mean I'll still need to apologize to him and be prepared to be slapped again? My goodness! I'll be beaten up to a

pulp for sure then!

Rhett growled at her, “Get lost, and don't be an eyesore here! Don't stir up any trouble while waiting for the group

to investigate you!”

Without hesitation, Lucy struggled to her feet and ran for her life despite the pain in her body. She could not take it

any longer.

Shortly after, Rhett stated respectfully, “Mr. Williams, please take a seat. Let's talk Project Mitxel out.”

“Hmm,” Zeke hummed nonchalantly and took a seat.

Rhett whipped out a copy of the document and handed it to Zeke. “Mr. Williams, this is the agreement drafted

exclusively for Linton Group. Please take a look.”
