Chapter - 154

The hefty man sneered, “Susan, you better listen carefully.”

“Either you get the waitress to apologize and lick my shoes clean, or you spend a night with me.”

“Otherwise, I will chase you out of the pharmaceutical industry immediately!”

“One word from me is all it takes to get rid of you!”

Susan clenched her fists, her fingers almost penetrating her palms.

She knew what Reinz Pharmaceutical was capable of. Indeed, he would be able to chase her out of the pharmaceutical industry easily.

However, she would never give in to such ridiculous requests. Susan would never spend a night with him, nor would she get the waitress to lick his shoes clean.

She knew she would suffer in guilt for the rest of her life if she were to give in to the man.

In the end, she clenched her teeth and made up her mind. “Sir, why don’t you show me some mercy. Let’s each take a step back, okay?”.

“I’ll apologize on behalf of this waitress.”

“In order to prove my sincerity, I will compensate ten million for your loss.”

Susan reached for her chequebook as she finished her sentence. She immediately filled in the required details and figures.

The man took a peek and replied with a contemptuous look on his face, “Hmph! Are you looking down on me?”

“Do you really think I need ten million of yours?”

“I told you! Either you spend a night with me, or you get her to lick my shoes clean. I mean, I don’t mind if you want to lick them clean on behalf of her too.”

Susan was in a tight spot. She closed her eyes and clenched as teeth, with no idea what to do next.

The waitress could no longer bear with the humiliation. She told Susan as her eyes brimmed with tears, “Ms. Susan, you have been taking care of me all this while. I-I can’t possibly bring you down with me.”

“I’ll lick… I’ll lick his shoes clean…”

The waitress got on her knees and was about to make her way to the man as soon as she finished her sentence.

“Get up!” Susan stopped the waitress. “Don’t get on your knees because of such a man!”

“Sir, it seems like there’s no room for negotiation anymore, huh?”

The man got full of himself and replied, “Yes! There’s no room for negotiation. What are you going to do about that?”

Susan replied, “Fine! Forget about it! I’ll stop my venture into the pharmaceutical industry!”

“Please take your leave. We do not welcome guests of such sorts like you.”

The man sneered once again. “Chasing you out of the pharmaceutical industry is but the first step.”

“Eventually, I’ll chase you out of Rivermouth!”

A chill ran down Susan’s spine when she heard his words.

Rivermouth had always been her base of operation. It was where she had built up her resources and connection throughout the years.

She would become a nobody once she left Rivermouth.

The man was obviously going after her with everything he got. He was determined to get his revenge.

He laughed sardonically and left in an arrogant manner. “I’ll give you a night to think things through. Please figure out what you’re going to do next.”

Suddenly, Zeke broke the silence. “Hold it right there. Did I ask you to leave?”

Everyone in the suite laid their eyes on Zeke the moment he spoke.

They were anxious because they realized the person who tried to stop the hefty man was but a youngster.

Who the hell is this poorly dressed guy? How dare he offend the hefty man whom even Susan Raynor dares not provoke?

Who gave him the audacity to do so?

Susan could barely hold back her excitement when she saw Zeke.

Zeke, who had been indifferent towards her all along, had actually stood up and reached out to

Her.

Susan would be lying if she were to say she wasn’t touched.

However, she soon returned to her senses. The harsh reality in-store inundated her.

Zeke was indeed an influential figure, but the base of his operation was Oakheart City.

Reinz Pharmaceutical reigned over the region; they had a strong global presence as well.

Can Zeke… really outmatch this hefty man?

Susan whispered because she didn’t want to enmesh Zeke in the affair, “Mr. Williams, please stay out of this. They are quite nasty opponents.”

“Thank you. You’re doing me a favour by helping me to get rid of troublemakers like him,” Zeke expressed his gratitude in a callous tone.

Susan was confused and thought to herself when she heard his words. What does he mean?

The hefty man sized Zeke up and paid him no heed as the latter was dressed casually.

“Who the hell do you think you are? Do you think you have the rights to talk to me?”

Zeke ignored him and reached for his phone. “Xavier Brown, I’m waiting for you at Grand Millenium Hotel. I want you to get your ass over here right now.”

Everyone was blown away when they heard the name, Xavier Brown.

Xavier Brown was none other than the most famous doctor of Eurasia. He was also the president of Reinz Pharmaceutical.

However, the youngster in front of them had just ordered him to rush over to the Grand Millenium Hotel and had addressed him by his name.

They thought the youngster must have had lost his mind.
