Zeke explained, “From what I know, you're just a manager who has to listen to your superior. The person in charge
of the project is Rhett Mitxel. Shouldn't you inform the person in charge of your decision and gain his approval
before deciding on the partner?”
Lucy snickered. “I'm the manager, so I have the right to decide on the partner. Besides, even if he's here, he will
definitely choose Intercontinental Group. You will never get to collaborate with Mitxel Group, ever!” she declared.
She then signed on the letter of intent without any hesitation.
Zeke didn't press on. He decided to wait for Rhett to show up and deal with her.
A text from Rhett had just arrived. Rhett was currently in Eurasia and would discuss their collaboration with him
personally.
As it was a done deal, Emma sighed. “Mr. Williams, let's go.”
To her surprise, Zeke shook his head. “Go? Calm down. Let's wait.”
Emma was confused. “Wait? Wait for what?”
Zeke shot her a mysterious smile. “You'll find out a bit later.”
Lucy mocked, “Ha! Even if your ancestor shows up, nothing will change.”
She turned to Sheldon and ordered, “Arrange for someone to deliver breakfast to my room. Also, remind my
darlings to come to my room after finishing their breakfast.”
Zeke exploined, “From whot I know, you're just o monoger who hos to listen to your superior. The person in chorge

Lucy snickered. “I'm the monoger, so I hove the right to decide on the portner. Besides, even if he's here, he will

She then signed on the letter of intent without ony hesitotion.
Zeke didn't press on. He decided to woit for Rhett to show up ond deol with her.
A text from Rhett hod just orrived. Rhett wos currently in Eurosio ond would discuss their colloborotion with him
personolly.
As it wos o done deol, Emmo sighed. “Mr. Willioms, let's go.”
To her surprise, Zeke shook his heod. “Go? Colm down. Let's woit.”
Emmo wos confused. “Woit? Woit for whot?”
Zeke shot her o mysterious smile. “You'll find out o bit loter.”
Lucy mocked, “Ho! Even if your oncestor shows up, nothing will chonge.”
She turned to Sheldon ond ordered, “Arronge for someone to deliver breokfost to my room. Also, remind my
dorlings to come to my room ofter finishing their breokfost.”
“Sure, no problem!” Sheldon agreed with a smirk.
“Wait up!” Zeke called out.
Lucy gave him a displeased look. “What else do you want? Spill!”
Zeke said, “You need to apologize to me for saying that.”
“Apologize?” Lucy scoffed. “Why would I do that?”
Zeke responded, “You claimed that even if my ancestor shows up, nothing will change. If an outsider insults me, it's
a grave crime that warrants the death of his or her family!”
Lucy snorted. “The death of my family? Do you think you're a big shot? Well, even if I were to die today, I won't
apologize to you. You don't deserve my apology.”
Slap!
Zeke slapped her across her face without the slightest hesitation.
“Everyone must take responsibility for what they say,” he stated.
Lucy, Emma, and Sheldon were stunned.
He's mad! Is he nuts? How dare he slap Ms. Lucy? His actions will merely make Linton Group and Mitxel Group
enemies!
Linton Group was about to expand its business internationally. If it were to lock horns with Mitxel Group, it would
face difficulty trying to expand its business.
If Lucy insisted on pursuing the matter, it might create an international dispute.
They shared the same opinion—Zeke had acted rashly.
Cradling her cheek with her hands, Lucy stared at Zeke in disbelief. “Did you just slap me? You foolish Eurasian. How
dare you hit me?”

Slap!
In response, Zeke gave her another slap. “Apologize now!”
Never mind if Lucy had only insulted him. Now, she had insulted all Eurasians. Zeke couldn't take it anymore.
“F*ck you!” Lucy spat as fury roared through her mind.
Slap!
Yet another slap landed on her face.
Lucy's cheek was red and swollen.
Sheldon felt a chill go down his spine at the scene.
Actually, he was secretly delighted that Zeke had slapped Lucy. The more Zeke made Lucy angry, the more the
situation would be in his favor.
But you shouldn't have slapped Lucy in my territory! I'll have to bear responsibility if she gets hurt here. If Lucy
terminates the contract...
Instinctively, Sheldon dashed forward and stood before Lucy in a protective manner. “B*stard! How dare you slap
our VIP? You have a death wish—”
Slap!
Zeke sent him flying with a slap. “This is my last warning. Apologize to me now!”
He raised his hand in warning.
Lucy felt dread streak through her at the sight of Zeke's huge palm.
Most importantly, she was no match for him.
