Moreover, could someone like Zacharias, who sat in the office year-round, really fight?
It was not that Shirley was overly confident, but under her father’s training, she had indeed reached a certain level of standard.
Zacharias seemed persuaded by his nephew. He stood up and unfastened the buttons of his waistcoat with his long fingers, revealing a white shirt and a pair of black pants underneath. He emanated a refined and gentlemanly aura.
Imogen, would you be willing to spar with me?” Zacharias walked toward the door. Shirley didn’t expect Zacharias to actually want to spar with her. As his bodyguard, she couldn’t refuse his request..
“Don’t be afraid, Pretty. My uncle can’t beat you. Go ahead!” Tony shouted from the side.
“I’m willing.” She nodded. Corinne, who was in the kitchen, overheard the conversation outside. It caught her attention, and she felt a bit anxious. She also wanted to participate in this close combat with Zacharias.
Unfortunately, she was in the midst of preparing dinner, so she could only feel frustrated.
,The evening sun sank behind the mountains while leaving a faint afterglow that bathed the garden in a soft yellow light. Zacharias stood under a lamp while cracking his knuckles, making a crisp sound.
Only now did Shirley feel the oppressive aura emanating from this man. She thought he was just a high-level politician sitting in an office, but unexpectedly, he exuded a burst of strength. It seemed like he had been disguising himself all along; at this moment, his gaze revealed a beast-like brutality beneath the cultured exterior.
She immediately heightened her alertness. This was not an opponent who was easy to deal with. She had underestimated this man just now, and now she had to focus her energy on handling him.
“Imogen, let’s begin!” Zacharias called out to her. Since he invited her to make the first move, she didn’t hold back. She clenched her fist and assumed an attacking stance.
As her fist moved toward the man’s face without holding back, his brows furrowed, and he skillfully blocked the attack with his arm. The rebounding force made her realize once again that this man wasn’t a kitten but a wild beast.
