Chapter 490

Zeke looked towards Lacey and the expression in his eyes turned gentle again. “Be good. It’s going to be alright. I’ll be back soon.”

Lacey nodded her head obediently. “Okay.”

Zeke walked out and brought Logan to an empty private room.

Little did Logan know; Hadley was also in that room.

He immediately got angry at the sight of Hadley.

It’s all because of Hadley’s lies that my plan failed. She told me that she had killed the Red Killer who had been held captive.

Due to Logan’s extreme anger, he didn’t focus on why Hadley was here.

Logan gritted his teeth as he glared at Hadley, “You asshole! You lied to me. Is this all Necro has to offer? You’re unworthy of being a killer.”

Hadley gave him a bitter smile. “I’m sorry. I had no other choice but to do so. Grandmaster wanted me to lie to you.”

Hadley took a glance at Zeke as she spoke.

What?

Logan couldn’t believe his ears as he widened his eyes and stared at Hadley. “You... What did you just say?”

“My grandmaster wanted me to lie to you,” Hadley answered.

Logan’s voice trembled, “And who...who is your grandmaster?”

Hadley sighed, “Stop the act. You knew who he is.”

Hadley looked at Zeke again with mixed feelings.

I’m still not used to calling him my grandmaster...

Thud!

Logan couldn’t stand properly and fell onto the floor.

This revelation was a huge blow to him.

I can’t believe Zeke Williams is Hadley’s grandmaster!

A top killer of the Necromancer Assassin Organization is actually a disciple of this young man!

That means I’ve told his disciple to murder him earlier!

Obviously, that wouldn’t work!

It’s all over now. I’m done for!

Zeke suddenly roared, “Kneel!”

Logan was still shocked. He couldn’t hear what Zeke had said.

Zeke roared again, “I told you to kneel! How dare you, Logan Hugh, a military officer conspire with a killer from an Assassin Organization to assassinate another military officer? As someone from the Pharmaceutical Group, not only did you not save the lives of those in need, but you also have even manufactured drugs. That’s a scourge to our country and the people! On this, you deserve to die!”

Logan Hugh immediately looked up at Zeke with bloodshot eyes. “You...you’re from the military!”

Zeke smiled coldly and nodded.

Boom!

Logan was mind-blown once again.

He was well aware that a military officer conspiring with an assassin to kill another military officer meant that he would get the death penalty.

And a military officer manufacturing drugs, scourging the country and the people would also lead to the death penalty.

These crimes were enough to make him die multiple times!

I’m really doomed!

Logan suddenly thought of something and he struggled to get up. With a thud, he kneeled in front of Zeke and begged for mercy.

“My ancestor! You’re my ancestor. Please forgive me...give me another chance...please, my ancestor...”

I’m going to lose my life soon. There is no time to care about my face right now.

If it meant that he could keep his life, he was even willing to eat shit, let alone kneeling and begging.

Zeke sneered, “Chances are not given, they should be earned.”

Logan looked at Zeke expectantly, “What do you wish for me to do?’

“There’s a pharmaceutical company and an entertainment company under your name. Since you’re going to die soon, why don’t you hand them over to me.”

Logan’s eyes lit up, “Are you going to let me live if I hand them over to you?”

I’m going to lose my life if I don’t listen to him, what’s the point of all these riches now?

“What are you talking about? I would regret it for the rest of my life if I don’t remove bad apples like you. But I will give you ten minutes. Within these ten minutes, you are free to run away. I won’t make a report on you. I’ll only do it after ten minutes. Let your destiny decide if you live or die.”

“Twenty minutes!” Logan said through gritted teeth.

Zeke sighed, “It seems like you don’t know your place. Do you think someone like you has the right to negotiate with me?”
