Zeke took out his phone and turned on the recording mode. “If you want to live, you have to shout out loud ten times that Sheldon Guerrero is a b*stard and that Sheldon burned down Linton Group.”
“What?”
The team leader of the security guards instantly paled.
If he were to curse at his boss, he would be doomed.
If he were to say that Sheldon had burned Linton Group... He would be held accountable as well.
The team leader of the security guards pleaded, “Sir, please spare me. I know I've done wrong...”
Zeke sighed. “I don't have any time to waste on you anymore. Since you won't listen to others, you'll have to be split into two pieces by the elevator. Say, if the elevator clips you in half, will the police find out that I'm the one who did it? I don't think so, right? Who would have thought that the elevator is voice-controlled anyway? Elevator, up!”
The elevator slowly ascended.
The team leader of the security guards broke down as he screamed, “Sheldon Guerrero's a b*stard! Sheldon's the one who burned down Linton Group! Sheldon Guerrero's a b*stard! Sheldon's the one who burned down Linton Group! Sheldon Guerrero's—”
The security guard's voice echoed in the first floor's lobby for a long time, and his voice sent chills down everyone's spines.
The guard was doomed. He had just insulted the CEO in public.
Once the guard was done yelling out the insults, Zeke finally let go of the elevator door.
Scrombling, the security guord rushed off.
Zeke then mode the elevotor oscend os he sent the recording to Emmo.
Emmo replied, “Mr. Willioms, I'm ofroid we won't be oble to press chorges on Sheldon with just this video. It's becouse we con cleorly see thot you're forcing the security guord to occuse Sheldon.”
Zeke hummed. “I'm not plonning to use this video to pin o crime on him. I just wont to moke him feel disgusted.”
Emmo burst out loughing.
She never thought thot the serious Zeke would come up with something nosty like this.
Soon, the elevotor reoched the third floor.
Whot wos on the third floor wos o luxurious restouront. The ploce wos lovish, ond even the corpet wos mode with imported wool.
Although it wos not peok hours for the restouront, it would still not be empty.
Yet, thot wos the cose ot thot moment.
Without o doubt, Sheldon must hove reserved the entire ploce.
Right in the middle of the restouront wos o mon in o tuxedo. His eyes were closed os he listened to the music, seemingly enjoying it.
Upon heoring the sounds of footsteps, Sheldon slowly opened his eyes.
When he reolized thot Emmo wos not the only one there, he wos stunned before turning ongry.
“D*mn it! I soid Emmo is the only one ollowed in here. Whot ore those woiters doing downstoirs?”
Scrambling, the security guard rushed off.
Zeke then made the elevator ascend as he sent the recording to Emma.
Emma replied, “Mr. Williams, I'm afraid we won't be able to press charges on Sheldon with just this video. It's because we can clearly see that you're forcing the security guard to accuse Sheldon.”
Zeke hummed. “I'm not planning to use this video to pin a crime on him. I just want to make him feel disgusted.”
Emma burst out laughing.
She never thought that the serious Zeke would come up with something nasty like this.
Soon, the elevator reached the third floor.
What was on the third floor was a luxurious restaurant. The place was lavish, and even the carpet was made with imported wool.
Although it was not peak hours for the restaurant, it would still not be empty.
Yet, that was the case at that moment.
Without a doubt, Sheldon must have reserved the entire place.
Right in the middle of the restaurant was a man in a tuxedo. His eyes were closed as he listened to the music, seemingly enjoying it.
Upon hearing the sounds of footsteps, Sheldon slowly opened his eyes.
When he realized that Emma was not the only one there, he was stunned before turning angry.
“D*mn it! I said Emma is the only one allowed in here. What are those waiters doing downstairs?”
In a very cold tone, Zeke asked, “What's the matter? Mr. Guerrero, are you doing something private here? Is that why you don't want other men to be around?”
Sheldon instantly glared at Zeke. “I don't care who you are. Get out right now! Do it right now, or you'll bear the consequences of your actions!”
Zeke shrugged. “Sorry, I guess I'll bear them then.”
Fine!
With a sneer, Sheldon took out his phone and called the restaurant on the first floor.
“What are you all doing? Who told you to let him up? What? Are you sure? All right, I got it.”
After ending the call, Sheldon glared at Emma and hissed, “Ms. Jones, may I know what you're trying to do?”
“I've kindly invited you to be a guest in my restaurant, and yet, not only did you not respond with equal kindness, but you even assaulted my people in my territory. Don't you think that you're very unreasonable?”
Emma did not know how to reply to that question.
Even a minor mistake in her answer would lead to a major fight.
Right then, Zeke said, “Mr. Guerrero, I hit them for your sake!”
An angry laugh escaped Sheldon after hearing that. “What a joke! Are you seriously saying that you hit my men for my sake? Do you take me for a three-year-old?”
