Mr. Terence was stupefied.
Drinking this whole bottle of wine in one go would be asking for his life!
He wasn’t capable of doing it.
The wheels in his head turned and he said, “Mr. Williams, I still have to settle the balance for Ms. Edward. If I finish
this whole bottle, I’ll be too drunk to do it...”
Zeke gave a faint smile. “You don’t need to worry about that. I’ll do it myself.”
Sharon Edward heaved a sigh of relief.
Thank God he didn’t forget about this pressing matter. And he doesn’t look like he’s mad at me or offended at all
for that matter.
This is how men should be! Generous and forgiving!
Unknowingly, Zeke had stolen a piece of the ice queen’s heart.
Mr. Terence was at a loss for a moment and didn’t know what to say.
Crew-Cut couldn’t stand it anymore and pushed to his feet. “C’mon, man. Haven’t you heard the saying ‘don’t burn
your bridges’? What do you gain from forcing Mr. Terrence to drink?”
A huge smile stretched across Zeke’s lips. “Then, tell me, what do humans gain from watching circus acts? Why do
so many people spend money to go to circuses?”
In other words, he was saying that Mr. Terence was nothing but a clown capable of only making a fool of himself.

Crew-Cut was enraged and he spat, “Either you take my advice or face the consequences. So what if you’re the
boss of Nutel Entertainment? To us, you’re nothing but a flea. I’m warning you; this is my territory. Nutel
Entertainment has always been under my protection, but here you are, disrespecting us. Do you believe that I can
easily crush your company?”
Zeke shook his head. “Nope.”
“You wanna die?” Crew-Cut slammed the table in anger.
Mr. Terence acted like a peacemaker between them. “Alright, Mr. Williams. You know what they say, if enmity isn’t
settled amicably, there is no end to it. Clearly, this night could’ve had a better ending. There’s no need to start a
feud.”
“Tell you what, I’ll down a few drinks for them, and you pretend this whole thing never happened. How about that?”
“Let’s all make money together. That’s all that matters, no?”
The tension on Zeke’s face visibly eased. “Mr. Terence. come here.”
Seeing that the situation was slightly more relaxed, Mr. Terence felt more at ease and quickly went over to Zeke.
Zeke opened the bottle of wine and sneered. “I said, I want you to finish this whole bottle. If you refuse, I’ll have no
choice but to force it on you. And trust me when I say, I never go back on my word.”
Then, under everyone’s watchful eyes, he poured the whole bottle of wine on Mr. Terence’s head.
F**k!
Mr. Terence exploded in anger. “Kill him. Kill this son of a b*tch!” He ordered the four men.
Crew-Cut roared with rage, “Are you asking for death, you m**herf**ker?”
With that, the four of them lunged at Zeke.
Zeke wasn’t rattled in the least. He pulled the very frightened Sharon behind him and flipped the tabletop, kicking it
heavily as he did.
The tabletop was like a tennis racket, hitting Crew-Cut and his buddies in the head and causing them to bounce
backwards with a loud bang.
The four of them crashed against the wall and slumped to the ground. They spat out blood and couldn’t get to their
feet anymore.
However, Mr. Terence was cheering in his heart upon seeing that.
This idiot dared to attack Crew-Cut and his boys.
With the temper the four of them had, even if Zeke didn’t end up becoming a corpse, he would lose a limb or two
at the very least.
This is the best opportunity to get them to do all the dirty work.
As expected, Crew-Cut had gone off the edge of sanity. “F**k. How dare you attack us? You’re dead meat.”
“Dawg, call for backup.”
Dawg clumsily took out his phone and dialed a number. “Axel, we’re being attacked. Send some people to help us
now.”

“How many are you up against?” Axel asked nervously.
“One.” Dawg replied.
Axel released a string of curses. “You trash. Four against one, and you guys are losing? You’re all a bunch of good-
for-nothings.” He sighed. “Where are you?”
“We’re at the Royal Spa Hotel.” Dawg answered.
Axel blinked in surprise on the other end of the line. “Huh? I’m at the Royal Spa Hotel too, but I’m at the parking lot
now and can’t go anywhere at the moment. Can you bring whoever that person is over?”
“No problem.” Dawg said gleefully.
Sharon has gone full panic mode now as her mind was plagued with the name ‘Axel’.
She grabbed Zeke’s arm and tugged him towards the exit. “Zeke, hurry. We can’t afford to provoke this Axel guy.”
Zeke remained where he was and arched a brow. “Who is this Axel guy exactly?”
Sharon nervously answered, “Axel is literally the right-hand man of the Oakheart City’s underworld leader, T-Rex.
Offending him is equivalent to offending the entire underground world in Oakheart City. Let’s go to the police
station. The police can protect us.”
She never expected Zeke to burst out laughing.
“So, he’s just T-Rex’s subordinate. And here I was, worrying over nothing. Relax. Even T-rex has to bow to me, let
alone his subordinate.”
