Chapter 619
The Protector levi garrison
As expected, Jacky was already staring at him with icy eyes. âThatâs your problem! I want to see her tonight, thatâll be my problem.â
âUnderstood! Iâm sorry, I promise Iâll do exactly as you asked!â Leslie said, hurriedly pressing his forehead to the floor in a deep bow.
Jackyâs meaning was clear enough. No matter how, he wanted to meet Zoey that very night.
âIf you canât even get this done, then youâd better start thinking of your last words,â Jacky said mildly.
The moment he left, Leslie wiped off his cold sweat with the back of his hand.
He nearly died in there.
He couldnât risk making that mistake again.
âYou, get this done.â
Leslie passed the baton to Derek.
To him, it was way too embarrassing for him to personally invite someone over.
âOf course! Donât worry, Father, Iâll be sure to prove myself to Jacky.â Derek smiled.
The Triple Groupâs building had been renamed under Oriental Star Group.
In Zoeyâs office, the secretary reported, âMs. Lopez, someone who claims to be Derek Davies is asking to see you.â
âBring him in.â Zoey nodded.
Recently, a number of South Cityâs family business representatives visited her. She hadnât turned anyone down yet.
Soon enough, Derek and the others reached the reception area.
âYouâre Ms. Zoey Lopez?â Derek asked snidely.
To Derek, there was no one in South City who he couldnât afford to mess with.
He had always been straightforward and cocky.
âYes. May I know what youâre here for?â
Zoey already didnât like his tone very much.
âMy master wants you to join us for dinner tonight! Iâm just here to pass on the message. Iâll send someone over to pick you up later tonight.â
Derek clearly didnât care about whether Zoey agreed or disagreed.
âGet ready. Iâll be back to pick you up in a while.â
After that, he turned to leave.
âHold it right there,â Zoey said in a crisp voice.
âWhat?â
âWho is this master youâre speaking of?â Zoey asked.
âYouâll know tonight. Either way, heâs way more respectable than you can even imagine. Just listen to whatever he says.â
Derek had just finished speaking when Zoey called out, âSend him off.â
âWhatâs that supposed to mean?â he asked in disbelief.
âSorry. I donât accept invitations from strangers,â Zoey declined.
Derek laughed. âZoey Lopez, Iâll have you know that you may turn down everyone else in South City, but this will be the one person you arenât allowed to decline! In fact, thereâs no reason for you to do so.â
Jacky had already killed Brock Green.
Who would dare to turn him down?
âThen why donât you tell me who he is?â
Zoey was already clearly furious.
âHis identity is to be kept secret, so youâll only know when you see him! If you turn him down, youâll really regret it. Do you know how Brock Green and the Grandmaster died last night? My master killed both of them!â Derek announced proudly.
âThatâs not a reason. Send him away!â Zoey commanded.
The guards forced Derek out of Oriental Star Group.
âI wasnât done!â Derek screeched urgently.
âWhat do we do now? That woman clearly isnât willing to do this the nice way!â one of his subordinates asked.
âIf she wonât play nice, we wonât either! Once she gets off work, weâll bring her back by force.â Derek chuckled. âJacky already told us he wanted to see her no matter what!â
âUnderstood. Weâll keep watch right here,â his subordinates replied.
