Chapter 555

Blondie bellowed, “F**king hell, trying to be a white knight, eh? Well, you have to get by me first.”

“You should leave before I turn you into mush.”

Zeke ignored blondie as he maintained his gaze on Susan. “Susan, I’m sorry I’m late.”

“Are you alright?”

Susan shook her head immediately. “Mr. Williams, I’m fine.”

With that, Zeke heaved a sigh of relief before turning his attention towards blondie. “You must have a lot of gall to dare harm my woman.”

Susan felt touched when Zeke mentioned that she was “his woman”. It simply made her imagination run wild.

Blondie threatened, “Haha, who do you think you are? Today, I’m not only going to beat up your woman, but I’m also going to cripple you.”

“Boys, rush him!”

The eight of them surrounded Zeke and closed in on him quickly.

Blondie brandished his steel pipe and swung it at Zeke again.

Susan started to panic, “Mr. Williams, you should escape and just leave me...”

Meanwhile, Zeke pulled Susan behind him. “Stay behind me and don’t make any sudden movements.”

Susan stared at Zeke’s silhouette and caught the faint scent of his sweat as he bravely faced the attackers.

The scene caused her to feel a surging sense of infatuation for Zeke as she reveled in the sense of security he gave her.

Faced with the enemies’ encirclement, Zeke wasn’t worried at all. Reaching his hand out, he easily caught blondie’s metal pipe.

With a forceful tug, he snatched it away with little effort.

At that moment, the enemy began their onslaught and rained blows on him repeatedly.

Without avoiding them, Zeke wielded the metal pipe around.

He swung it so fast that all everyone could see of the pipe was just a blur.

Five seconds later, the scene fell silent.

Zeke had neither moved from the encirclement nor taken any damage.

Meanwhile, the eight employees were all lying on the ground grimacing in pain. Some were holding their heads while others their stomachs as they rolled around on the ground miserably.

Everyone was stunned.

“This guy is really fearsome and as strong as a bull too.”

“The scene was even more exciting than a movie, not to mention it’s real and happened right before our eyes.”

“This b*****d is really a good fighter. I guess that the rumors of one man being capable of beating ten are really true.”

“Sigh, we’re in trouble now. The new boss has someone so powerful by her side. We can kiss our wages goodbye.”

“Damn it, there goes our wages.”

Even blondie who was still reeling from the beating felt an uneasiness bordering on fear.

He had just experienced firsthand how powerful Zeke was.

Given how easily the metal pipe was taken from him, he was well aware of Zeke’s immeasurable strength. Could he be one of those legendary martial art masters?

He no longer dared to go head-to-head with Zeke. His only choice was to rely on the crowd by provoking them.

He shouted, “Damn you! Not only did you not pay our wages, but you also attacked us.”

“My brethren, how can you tolerate this? You wimps disgust me!”

As expected, blondie’s provocation worked as the other employees were riled up and started to protest vehemently.

“How dare they bully us, it’s just too much.”

“Instead of apologizing for not paying our wages, they beat us up. They’re really trying to force us to our deaths.”

“There’s no point in staying in a company like this. I quit.”

“I quit too.”

Meanwhile, Jacob who was watching by the side was delighted at the turn of events, which was better than he had expected.

He did not plan for Zeke to beat up the employees and cause them to quit.

All colors drained from Susan’s face.

With Zeke beating up the workers, she had lost the moral high ground and the situation started to spin out of control.

“What are we going to do?” She looked helplessly at Zeke.

Zeke gently patted on her shoulders, “Don’t worry, someone will clean this mess up.”

Susan smiled wryly in response. She as the boss couldn’t even deal with this, let alone somebody else.

As Johnathan approached to help blondie up, he gave Zeke a disappointed look.

“Boss, I admit that these men were being brazen and impulsive, but you shouldn’t have beaten them up so badly.”

“Since you don’t care about your employees, there’s no point working here anymore.”

“I quit!”
