However, the case still hadn't made any progress.
Therefore, they didn't dare to resist. The consequences of resistance were unthinkable.
They could only endure in silence, thinking that it was better to be a pet by the side of dignitaries in this kind of mansion than be sexually harassed by disgusting thugs.
“Who are all these people?” Ashlyn's voice rang out, cool and detached, carrying a hint of anger that she herself barely noticed.
Lucas gave her a casual glance and said, “These people are all tycoons from Zaewora.”
A trace of contempt tugged at the corner of Ashlyn's mouth. These people truly disgusted her.
However, she also understood that the world wasn't purely good; where there was evil, there was good.
She closed her eyes momentarily, then looked around, forcing herself not to look at those humiliated girls.
The atmosphere was somewhat depressing as they walked.
Leroy led them past these tycoons, then headed straight for the second floor.
After ascending the stairs, Leroy led them to the entrance of a luxurious conference room, which was guarded by a few men dressed in black.
“Mr. Lancer,” the man in black greeted Leroy politely upon seeing him.
“Please open the door. Our esteemed guest has arrived.” Leroy said as he attempted to push the door open.
However, the man in black stopped him. “I'm sorry, Mr. Lancer. If you wish to enter... we'll need to conduct an inspection.”
The man spoke in a businesslike manner.
The so-called inspection naturally meant a body search.
A hint of mockery flashed in Ashlyn's eyes.
How ridiculous! These people... are up to such tricks too?
Upon hearing the words of the man in black, Leroy cast a glance at Lucas.
Spencer, who had been following behind Lucas all along, sneered. He wanna search Mr. Nolan's body? I can't believe he had the nerve to say such a thing. Does he have a death wish?
With a swift move, he lunged forward and aimed a kick directly at the legs of the man in black.
He could only resent these men in black for their lack of discernment, which had now landed him in this awkward predicament.
He was somewhat anxious, and without him realizing it, fine beads of sweat began to form on his forehead.
He glared at the men in black.
Lucas is here as our esteemed guest. No one dares to search him wherever he goes. Even if the President of Zaewora were here now, he probably wouldn't dare to search him either!
“Well, well, I was wondering why it was so lively outside. Turns out it's because Mr. Nolan has graced us with his presence.”
A hearty voice suddenly rang out, followed by the conference room door being swung open.
A middle-aged man slowly appeared at the door.
The man surveyed the situation before him, and with a sweep of his hand, he signaled the men in black to quickly put away their guns.
He approached Lucas with a smile and said, “I'm sorry, Mr. Nolan. These people lack discernment and are thoughtless. You wouldn't hold a grudge against them, would you?”
