In order to appease the Great Marshal, Ryker decided to use Lucius, as his scapegoat.

He hurriedly tried to placate Zeke, “Please calm down, Great Marshal. I wasn’t aware of this matter at all. I believe

that someone has been parading my name around to hoodwink others! Don’t worry. I’ll investigate this thoroughly,

ensuring that justice is served.”

Zeke mused, “Oh, you weren’t aware of this? Then I guess Lucius Johansson is the culprit. Hmph, how dare he use

the name of the military to deceive others, conducting an illegal fundraising? He must be severely punished!”

Ryker answered, “Please don’t worry, General. I’ll definitely ensure that he gets punished.”

The call then ended.

Only then did Ryker realize that he was drenched in a cold sweat, from head-to-toe.

He was both regretful and terrified!

On one hand, he was regretful that his plan was foiled, meaning that he was unable to drive Zeke out of Atheville.

How did that brat Williams get such a stroke of good luck?

On the other hand, he was terrified, that if he did not handle this matter well, he and his family would both have to

pay a huge price.

He sighed, “I guess that I’ll have to sacrifice Lucius, for the sake of both me and my family.”

Thus, he gathered a team, as they made their way over to Golden Pictures.

Along the way, a thought kept surfacing within his mind.

Why does the Great Marshal’s voice sound so familiar? I’m sure that I’ve heard it somewhere, but I can’t remember

where.

After Zeke made the call, he headed back to the hall.

Lucius rolled his eyes at him. “Why are you still here? Are you still waiting for the Great Marshal to entrust a military

film to you?”

Zeke nodded. “Yeah.”

Hahaha!

It made everyone roar with laughter.

Lucius was speechless. “If the Great Marshal really arrives to commission you to shoot a film, I’ll cut off my own

head.”

Zeke replied, “Unfortunately, you won’t get the chance to see the Great Marshal anymore. You’ll be arrested in just

a moment!”

Lucius snorted. “Get out! Other than making sarcastic remarks, what else are you capable of?”

Suddenly, the door to Golden Pictures opened, and Ryker barged in with a huge team.

Lucius was overjoyed. “Just you wait, you brat! How dare you make a ruckus here. I’ll get General Lewis to arrest

you this instant.”

At that moment, he quickly turned to greet Ryker, along with everyone else.

Rushing up to Ryker, Lucius respectfully greeted, “General Lewis, it’s an honor for us to be graced by your

presence. Please, come and take a seat.”

However, Ryker questioned him in a forceful tone, “Lucius Johansson, I’d heard that you’d paraded my name

around with the intention of deceiving people, by illegally raising funds for a film project?”

Lucius was confused. “Huh? What do you mean? You’re the one who’d entrusted the film to me...”

Slap!

Ryker gave Lucius a tight slap without hesitation. “How dare you slander me! I’m going to sue you for slandering a

military officer. Men, arrest him and the five celebrities beneath him!”

In a flash, Ryker’s men had arrested Lucius, along with the five other celebrities.

The crowd was stunned.

What the hell is going on?

What is Ryker trying to do?

How can he kill the chef after being fed?

Have we been fooled by him?

Why is he causing harm to us?

Worried that Lucius would continue to defend himself, implicating him, Ryker hurriedly signaled to his men to bring

Lucius and the others away.

As they were dragged away, Lucius and the others stared at Zeke in shock and fear.

Zeke was right.

But how did he know?

Or was he the one who’d arranged for all of this to happen?
