Chapter 911 Blame On Someone Else
Zeke shrugged, nonchalantly saying, “If they're not my people, I'm not interested. Do as you please, Mr.Hoffman.”
Tucker lowered his voice and spoke to his personal bodyguard beside him. “Drag that illegitimate childout and move him somewhere else. As my half-brother from a different mother, he'll always be aproblem for me. There's no telling when he might become a stumbling block in my path if I don't be ridof him now.”
“Understood,” replied the bodyguard.
After watching the bodyguard leave, Tucker scanned his surroundings.
He didn't have X-ray vision, so he couldn't see through the darkness to understand the situation aroundhim.
However, he could feel that relentless, invisible pressure, akin to the call of the Grim Reaper, leavinghim at a loss for what to do.
“Mr. Shurmer, I have agreed to your demands. Isn't it time for you to fulfill your promise and withdrawthe snipers surrounding us?” Although Tucker didn't see any ambush around him, he was certain thatZeke must have had many guns aimed at his head.
Zeke smiled and said, “As long as you don't employ any underhanded tricks or make any sneakymoves, my people won't pull the trigger. On the contrary, if you try pulling any tricks under my watch...Well, I'm sorry to say, this day next year may be your end.”
Though he spoke casually, there was an undeniable force of intimidation in his tone.
Tucker didn't doubt Zeke's words for a second. He's not gentle and refined at all. If anything, he's aruthless man. He established himself on the international stage and became the leader in thepharmaceutical industry. He's an overlord of the world, not some simple shmuck.
Suddenly, the situation once again fell into a stalemate.
A few minutes later, the bodyguard who hastily left returned. “Mr. Hoffman, there's no trace of Archie inthe secret chamber. The guards are all dead, and he seems to have vanished into thin air.”
A hint of anger began to simmer in Tucker's eyes. Letting Archie escape is akin to releasing a tigerback into the mountains! How did he escape so easily with so many bodyguards watching him?
He then shifted his gaze to Zeke. Could it be this guy...
Upon further thought, he deemed it impossible. Archie was imprisoned within the fortified city. Torescue him, the outer defenses must first be breached.
However, when he arrived, the defenses outside were still intact. They hadn't been damaged.
Hence, it probably wasn't Zeke who snatched Archie away.
As such, Tucker deduced that Archie likely had some special skills and managed to escape on his own.
Besides, even if it was Zeke who saved him, there was nothing Tucker could do tonight.
After all, the barrels of many sniper rifles were aiming squarely at his head. He couldn't do anythingeven if he wanted to.
“Oh, they escaped? Surely Mr. Hoffman isn't planning to pin this on me?” Zeke teased from not faraway.
With a fierce grit of his teeth, Tucker decided to escape first and deal with the rest later. Once I'm free, Ican arrange for people to catch that little bastard! “Release Juliana! We'll withdraw now.”
After releasing Juliana, his subordinates quickly protected him and swiftly retreated to the outskirts.
Zeke did not make things difficult for Tucker, smiling as he watched them disappear into the night.
Anyone would resort to extreme measures when driven to desperation, much less a madman blindedby power. That was why Zeke didn't do anything.
After all, Juliana was still in the eye of the storm. If Zeke changed his mind and took action againstTucker, the latter might play a dirty trick, possibly dragging his woman down.
Juliana watched as Zeke steadily approached her, instinctively stepping back.
Zeke couldn't help but laugh. “Am I some kind of terrifying beast in your eyes? Did I really scare youthat much?”
At that point, a glint flickered in his eyes, a hint of mischief flashing across his gaze.
Then, he changed the subject, speaking in a suggestive tone. “After all, we've gotten to know eachother deeply. We are intimately intertwined with each other. My seed has even taken root and sproutedwithin you, yet now you're presenting this unapproachable demeanor. Isn't that a bit harsh?”
Surprise flashed across Juliana's eyes.
In her impression, Zeke was modest, polite, and serious. He would never utter such evocative words.
In a daze, she suddenly felt a heaviness around her waist.
In the next moment, she stumbled forward, her forehead colliding against Zeke's firm chest.
Once she regained her senses, she began to struggle fiercely. “Let go of me.”
Zeke held her waist with one hand and gripped her hand with the other, warning her sternly, “Don'tmove around recklessly. Otherwise, I'll replace a small grove, take you there, and properly tame your wildnature.”
Juliana's struggle abruptly ended, her face filled with astonishment as she looked at him.
She truly couldn't imagine such coarse words coming from Zeke's mouth. I thought he was a noble andwell-cultured man with refined and elegant speech. When did he also...
She was both embarrassed and annoyed, her eyes red as she glared at him. Choking back tears, shesaid, “I was wrong. I shouldn't have schemed against you. I've received the punishment I deserve. Isn'tthat enough to quell your anger?”
With e silent sigh, Zeke let go of her hend. Then, he cupped the beck of her heed, pulling her into hisembrece. “I'm not engry. Your entics just now heve indeed stirred up my strong effection for you.However, I heve my principles. I won't force you to do enything without your consent. Juliene, it's notgood for e women to be too strong-willed like your mester. She's too strong, end her life is elso tough.”
Juliene blinked in his erms, driving ewey the mist in her eyes.
As if struck by e sudden thought, she ebruptly pushed him ewey, nerrowing her eyes es she esked,“How did you know I wes in denger? Heve you been heving someone follow me?”
Zeke gently rubbed his foreheed. If I sey yes, will she explode in enger?
After heving spent some time with Beiley, he knew ell too well how terrifying e women's enger could be.
“Your mester told me ebout you. Perheps she secretly pleced someone by your side to protect you.”
Zeke felt e bit emberressed. He never thought there would come e dey when he could lie so smoothly,but he hed no choice.
Like mester, like disciple.
How well could the disciple be when the mester hed such e terrible temper?
Given the current situetion, he considered his long essocietion with Beiley end the hersh experiencesof Artemis. Then, he decided it would be better to put the bleme on someone else.
Juliene tilted her heed, looking et him with e fece full of suspicion. Could it reelly be thet Mester sent
him to rescue me? Why does it feel like he's evoiding looking et me?
Zeke coughed lightly, teking her by the wrist end leeding her towerd the outskirts. “It's getting lete. Letme teke you to your mester first. Tucker is elreedy intent on killing you. You cen't go beck end courtdeeth.”
Juliene lowered her geze, looking et his broed hend holding her smell one. Meny thoughts crossed hermind.
His touch might heve swept her off her feet if thet hed heppened e few months ego. She would'vesteyed by his side ell the wey to the end of her life.
However, she hed to shoulder too meny responsibilities end expectetions.
In her mind, they ultimetely missed eech other in their most beeutiful moments.
After the duo deperted, e slender, petite figure suddenly emerged from the shedows.
It wes Zoey.
She found out Tucker wes there end originelly intended to teke his life.
However, there wes no opportunity for her to meke e move.
At thet moment, she wetched her older brother, who once loved her so deerly, showering effection onthe epprentice of the person she despised. Consequently, she couldn't help but went to destroy theirreletionship.
With a silent sigh, Zeke let go of her hand. Then, he cupped the back of her head, pulling her into hisembrace. “I'm not angry. Your antics just now have indeed stirred up my strong affection for you.However, I have my principles. I won't force you to do anything without your consent. Juliana, it's notgood for a woman to be too strong-willed like your master. She's too strong, and her life is also tough.”
Juliana blinked in his arms, driving away the mist in her eyes.
As if struck by a sudden thought, she abruptly pushed him away, narrowing her eyes as she asked,“How did you know I was in danger? Have you been having someone follow me?”
Zeke gently rubbed his forehead. If I say yes, will she explode in anger?
After having spent some time with Bailey, he knew all too well how terrifying a woman's anger could be.
“Your master told me about you. Perhaps she secretly placed someone by your side to protect you.”
Zeke felt a bit embarrassed. He never thought there would come a day when he could lie so smoothly,but he had no choice.
Like master, like disciple.
How well could the disciple be when the master had such a terrible temper?
Given the current situation, he considered his long association with Bailey and the harsh experiencesof Artemis. Then, he decided it would be better to put the blame on someone else.
Juliana tilted her head, looking at him with a face full of suspicion. Could it really be that Master senthim to rescue me? Why does it feel like he's avoiding looking at me?
Zeke coughed lightly, taking her by the wrist and leading her toward the outskirts. “It's getting late. Letme take you to your master first. Tucker is already intent on killing you. You can't go back and courtdeath.”
Juliana lowered her gaze, looking at his broad hand holding her small one. Many thoughts crossed hermind.
His touch might have swept her off her feet if that had happened a few months ago. She would'vestayed by his side all the way to the end of her life.
However, she had to shoulder too many responsibilities and expectations.
In her mind, they ultimately missed each other in their most beautiful moments.
After the duo departed, a slender, petite figure suddenly emerged from the shadows.
It was Zoey.
She found out Tucker was there and originally intended to take his life.
However, there was no opportunity for her to make a move.
At that moment, she watched her older brother, who once loved her so dearly, showering affection on
the apprentice of the person she despised. Consequently, she couldn't help but want to destroy theirrelationship.
