The few people looked at Lina, who was in bed, and gulped unwillingly.
However, they only dared to dream about sleeping with her in the presence of the Grists' princess. They were only here for a job, so they would have to obey whoever was paying.
Violet smirked in satisfaction before staring at them in disdain.
…
Zuko was going to take a shower and sleep when the people from the Grists came for him.
The thugs Violet had hired had ill intentions and attacked him from his back!
As he heard the footsteps approaching from behind, his innate sense of alertness kicked in, prompting him to swiftly turn his head. Yet, at that very moment, he felt a sudden impact on his back, as one of them struck him with a rod!
He knelt on the ground, forcing himself not to fall, but they tied him up and shoved him into an old van. It was silent throughout the journey.
Unfazed by the situation, his expression remained stoic and cold. The hooligans instinctively cowered under the overwhelming aura emanating from him, keeping their distance out of fear.
Before long, they escorted him to the hotel.
The ringleader of the thugs wore a sly grin on his face, gestured a thumbs-up to him, and then pointed toward a room. "You're getting lucky tonight, fool!"
Zuko frowned as he saw a girl lying on the bed.
He would always hear those drivers discuss how arrogant the Grists' princess was when he did his delivery. She had drugged a girl that she did not like and had gotten a few thugs to sleep with her. That girl jumped off a condo in the end…
Zuko clenched his fists as these people repulsed him.
"Hey, fool!" A thug suddenly smacked his head. "Are you dumbstruck by your luck?"
"Ha, it makes sense. Anyone would be dumbstruck to have such great luck landing on them!"
"Boss, this fool sure is lucky! Ugh…”
