The Man’s Decree The Man’s Decree Novel Chapter 97

The Man’s Decree Novel Chapter 97At that moment, everyone’s expression changed instantly. As for Zayne, the chill he felt down his spine
turned him sober at once.
He had not expected that by falsely claiming to know Tommy just to satisfy his ego, he would end up in
such dire circumstances.
When he saw Zayne’s reaction, Josh sniggered before giving Zayne a tight slap. “Why aren’t you as
brazen now as you were before? How dare you hit my man and even abuse Mr. Lewis’ name? Looks
like you have a death wish.”
Josh’s slap brought Zayne back to reality. He pleaded at once, “Mr. Queen, I’m sorry. I won’t do it
again. I swear I won’t.”
Zayne’s pleas struck home with Maria and his subordinates. They finally realized that he had been
boasting all this while and never knew Tommy at all.
Upon the epiphany, all of them began to tremble, as there was no one for them to rely on.
“Sorry?” Mr. Queen chuckled insidiously. “It’s too late for that now. Prepare for your doom!”
Overwhelmed by fear, Zayne dropped to his knees with a thud. “Mr. Hoffman, I won’t dare to make
false claims in Mr. Lewis’ name anymore. I beg of you. Please show me mercy.”
At that moment, Zayne was filled with remorse and crying like a baby.
As for the others, they were even more terrified than Zayne was. Maria stared at him in shock, as she
didn’t even know what to think.
After glancing at Zayne, who was on his knees, and shifting his gaze toward the rest of the group,
Charlie asked, “Mr. Queen, what do you think we should do?”Charlie handed Josh the honor. After all, he was one of the establishment’s key customers.
“They’re just a bunch of hot-blooded youths. There’s no point in crippling them. I suppose we can just
let them go.” Josh waved his hand.
The moment he heard those words, Zayne prostrated himself to thank Josh. Just when everyone
heaved a sigh of relief, Josh turned his attention to Hilda, Maria, and Lydia. “The men can go, but the
ladies have to stay and accompany me.”
At that very instant, the ladies were stupefied.
Zayne in particular was even more shocked given that Maria was his girlfriend, and her dad had just
acknowledged him. He could disregard Lydia and Hilda, but there was no way he could leave Maria
there.
Pointing at Maria, Zayne suggested with a sycophantic smile, “Mr. Queen, this is my girlfriend. Can I
take her with me? The rest can stay with you. After all, I have been cohabiting with her for a year, so I
don’t think you’ll be interested in her.”
In truth, he had never slept with Maria before. All he wanted to do was to extract her from danger.
Despite shooting him a glance, Maria didn’t say a word. After all, her priority was to save her own skin.
Just as expected, Josh’s eyes were filled with scorn after hearing Zayne’s words. With a wave of his
hand, he replied, “You can go, but the other two have to stay.”
novelbinIn response, Zayne thanked Josh profusely before preparing to leave.
In the meantime, Lydia panicked and grabbed Zayne’s arm. “Mr. Carlson, don’t leave me here. Don’t
leave me.”As for Hilda, she looked helplessly at Kai, as he was the only one she could rely on. After all, no one
else would be willing to do so because they barely knew her.
“Lydia, just have a few drinks with Mr. Queen. You’ll be fine. I’ll come back in a while to pick you up.”
Zayne pushed her toward Josh, causing her to be quickly filled with despair.
As for Hilda, she gently held onto Kai’s sleeve with tears in her eyes. Even though she wanted Kai to
escape, she didn’t want to stay either. Consequently, she had fallen into a dilemma.
