Zeke did not slow down. “Tell your boss to come and meet me.”
The security guards flew into a rage. “Who the hell are you? Now, for the last time, get out!”
Zeke ignored them and continued walking.
The two security guards rushed forward to tackle him.
However, before they could even land a single blow on him, Zeke swatted them away and sent them flying across the lobby.
The security guards started to seethe with anger.
How dare he pick a fight here! they thought.
“Help! Someone is trespassing!”
Whoosh!
A hoard of people rushed up to Zeke and surrounded him.
The people outside looked on in silent shock.
They could not believe how derailed Zeke was.
Not only did he say those absurd things, but he also actually went in to beat those people up!
“That guy’s dead meat...” someone murmured.
Among the crowd, Lacey and her family stood rooted to the ground, drenched in cold sweat.
What in the world is Zeke trying to do?
His forces were mostly concentrated in Oakheart City, yet he was stirring up trouble in Riverdale District... how delusional!
They were sure that Zeke was going to meet his end there and then.
When Lacey finally registered the situation, she thrust herself forward and screamed, “Stop! Stop it! Don’t start a fight!”
Nancy grabbed Lacey before she could rush into the fray. “Lacey, are you crazy? You’re going to get yourself killed if you go in there!”
“Calm down, let me think, let me think...”
Although Nancy despised Zeke, she could not bear to see her sister cry over her favorite man’s body.
Daniel clenched his jaw and walked over to Aaron before going down on both knees right in front of his uncle. “Uncle, please, help us save Zeke...”
“We will hand over the Linton Group to you if you’re willing to save him.”
“Yes, Granduncle, please help us!” Lacey pleaded.
“If you help us out, Linton Group will be yours in no time!”
However, Aaron just snickered. “Don’t you forget that I have a bet with Zeke? He’s going to lose it to me anyway, so why would I want to help him out?”
A look of desperation appeared on Lacey’s face.
They had hoped that Aaron would help them turn the situation around, but his nonchalance crushed their last hope.
“However, since we’re all part of the Hinton family...” Aaron said suddenly.
Lacey and her family perked up immediately. Their gazes were instantly filled with the flame of hope once again.
“I’ll make sure he dies a quick and painless death so that he doesn’t have to suffer.”
That came as another blow to Lacey and her family.
Lacey clenched her jaw. “If that’s the case, then I’m dying with him!”
After that, she made a move to run into the hotel.
Nancy screamed and grabbed her tightly. “Lacey, no! Don’t go in! You’re going to die!”
“Let’s come up with another idea...”
Meanwhile, Zeke was surrounded by dozens of security guards.
“Tell T-Rex to get his sorry as* here,” Zeke ordered coldly.
The guards flew into a rage.
“Who do you think you are? How dare you address Boss by his real name?”
“If you can kowtow to us ten times, slap yourself another ten times, and pay a million in medical fees, then maybe we can let you off alive.”
“If not, then prepare to die!”
Zeke sighed. “I’m sorry, but you don’t have the right to disrespect me.”
“You ba****d!” a bald-headed man growled. “I’ll show you who’s the boss here!”
“Beat him up, boys!”
“Wait!” a bespectacled man in the crowd yelled suddenly. “Stay back.”
