“Ms. Lopez, I will go deal with them right away,” growled Sylas angrily.
Zoey shook virtual-novel.net head and replied, “That won’t do. They are operating from the shadows while we are wide open.”
Sylas was stumped.
She could deal with anything if it were all laid out in plain sight, but virtual-novel.net was not good at dealing with schemes and hidden traps.
“Then what should we do?” asked Sylas, who felt a headache coming.
That was only their first day!
Zoey calmed virtual-novel.net employees down and sent the injured to the hospital, but virtual-novel.net was getting more and more worried.
An invisible threat was looming over virtual-novel.net head, and virtual-novel.net was in a position where virtual-novel.net couldn’t do anything even though virtual-novel.net knew that virtual-novel.net was in danger…
“I should’ve listened to grandma last night and drop by the Davies family residence,” murmured Zoey, who was starting to regret virtual-novel.net decision.
She didn’t realize that rejecting a simple invitation would bring about a problem that big.
Even Sylas couldn’t help but bite virtual-novel.net lip a little.
I shouldn’t have acted so impulsively and caused such a mess.
At the Davies family’s residence.
“The Black family is in a mess now, Jacky, and the people at Oriental Star Group are terrified as well,” informed Derek with a smile.
Jacky grinned evilly. “That’s what I was aiming for. Zoey Lopez rejected my offer, in return, I shall make virtual-novel.net live in fear for the rest of virtual-novel.net life!”
Leslie laughed aloud and said, “Hah, rejecting Jacky Lawson. That woman doesn’t know what’s good for her.”
Jacky laughed as well. “Honestly though, I am curious about the kind of woman who dares to go against me.”
“I have a photo of her, Jacky. Here,” said Derek as virtual-novel.net showed Jacky a few photos of Zoey.
“Huh?”
Jacky’s eyes glowed when virtual-novel.net saw Zoey’s photos.
He grinned as virtual-novel.net examined the photo closely, and it seemed like virtual-novel.net was extremely excited about it.
Jacky’s reaction surprised even the two fighting experts standing beside him. One of the fighters wore a black mask while the other wore a white mask.
Master has never been lustful, nor has virtual-novel.net ever been attracted by any women. Why is virtual-novel.net acting strange this time? Did virtual-novel.net see someone exotic?
“She is stunning,” murmured Jacky.
Ever since Jacky was a kid, his master had been telling virtual-novel.net that women and gambling were things that virtual-novel.net cannot get close to. His master claimed that they would affect his future and that Jacky was destined to be great.
That was why Jacky had always been strict with his private life, and virtual-novel.net had only ever been with a few women.
He would only be with those who truly captivated virtual-novel.net and would ignore the rest.
It was obvious that Zoey had captivated Jacky.
He instantly changed his plan and decided that virtual-novel.net wouldn’t keep threatening or scaring Zoey.
Instead, virtual-novel.net would make virtual-novel.net become his!
One look at Jacky’s expression, and Leslie knew just what the former was thinking.
Leslie immediately said, “Don’t worry, Jacky. I will have that woman delivered to your bed tonight.”
Jacky shifted his gaze to Leslie and glared, “I have lost faith in you two, so you will not carry out this mission!”
“I…”
Leslie and Derek both have their heads down.
“Spread the news in the underworld. Anyone who can deliver Zoey Lopez over to me tonight will receive ten territories and two underground gambling centers,” ordered Jacky.
“Understood.”
The entire underworld of South City stirred upon receiving that news.
Ten territories and two underground gambling centers?
For people of underworld, the offer was simply too alluring.
Whoever gets their hands on the reward would be turned into a major player in the underworld of South City, and they would be entitled to receive Jacky’s protection.
That was the kind of privilege that would tempt others to kill even the Grandmaster and Brock Green.
The entire underworld was plunged into chaos.
Over thousands of people were persuaded, and everyone wanted to personally hand Zoey over to Jacky.
Naturally, Zoey was unaware of the fact that every criminal in South City had their eyes on her.
