At 9 p.m., Zayn had just finished eating with his men inside a time-honored restaurant in Glyngarth.
While he was paying the bill, he told the waiter, "I'd like a piece of Black Forest cake to go. This cake is very tasty. Nathan has always liked to eat chocolate cake since he was a child, so he will definitely like this dessert. I'll bring him this while I visit my granddaughter."
It turns out that Zayn was preparing to leave for Northania tomorrow.
Thus, he wanted to meet Nathan and Queenie before he left tonight.
Soon, the waiter packed a piece of Black Forest cake for Zayn, who then asked his bodyguard to carry it before they left the restaurant.
A few of them got on a Maybach parked on the side of the road, and Zayn told the driver, "Head to the Jade Hotel!" 'Yes, Sir!" The driver answered. While on the way there, Zayn, who was usually strong and domineering, was actually becoming a little anxious.
He couldn't help but ask the bodyguards around him, "Nathan has been refusing to forgive me. Do you think he will shut me out and refuse to see me if I go to him like this?"
The bodyguards were struggling to come up with a reply.
At that time, their car was driving by a dark and remote area when the driver suddenly exclaimed, "Sir, a man is standing in our way in the middle of the road ahead."
At this, Zayn and his bodyguards immediately grew alert.
Frowning, Zayn looked through the windshield and saw a slender, tall, dark-skinned man standing in the middle of the road expressionlessly. He was raising his hand to signal them to stop the car.
Being an experienced man, Zayn could see that the guy blocking their way had a strange aura around him.
He ordered solemnly, "Don't stop. Just drive ahead!"
At his command, the driver could only bite the bullet and drove straight towards the man.
The man blocking the way was none other than the top assassin in Southeast Asia, The Fiend.
Upon seeing the car driving straight towards him, The Fiend rolled his eyes slightly. Something horrifying could be seen in his eyes, as he actually had two pupils in each eye!
