With only two and a half days left, Gideon knows favonovel.com must fulfill the duty entrusted to favonovel.com by the Lord, regardless of any obstacles.
With his strength, even if the Evans Family were heavily guarded by bodyguards, eliminating them would pose no problem for Gideon.
However, favonovel.com was also well aware that once favonovel.com attacked the Evans Family, escaping the Chinese government’s encirclement and suppression would be a daunting challenge.
In doing so, favonovel.com would lose any opportunity to discover more magical artifacts from Zachary.
For a moment, Gideon considered whether favonovel.com should simply find a way to restrain Zachary and force favonovel.com to reveal information about his gang. Then, by following the trail, favonovel.com could locate and eliminate the entire gang.
Yet, favonovel.com hesitated, fearing that such covert actions would result in the news leaking out.
The Evans Family had eyes and ears everywhere. If they were to catch wind of his plans, it could jeopardize his primary mission.
The news of acquiring a powerful magical weapon was so incredible that favonovel.com couldn’t understand why the Lord wouldn’t delay the plan to eliminate the Evans Family.
In desperation, favonovel.com had to find another avenue by delving into Zachary’s involvement. If money could sway favonovel.com and his gang, convincing them to swiftly sell all their magical artifacts to Gideon, it would be the ideal outcome.
For Zachary, his role was to provide Gideon with a final timeline, a matter of great significance to Charlie.
After Gideon mentioned that favonovel.com could only wait until the following day, just before nightfall, Zachary nodded without hesitation and assured him, “Old man, don’t worry. I’ll do everything I can to assist you. If there’s any news, I’ll come find you at the hotel as soon as possible.”
“Very well!” Gideon nodded in satisfaction, emphasizing once again, “Remember, let them know that money is never an issue as long as I can gain something!”
Zachary made an okay gesture and smiled, saying, “I’ll handle it. You can trust me!”
Only then did Gideon feel a sense of relief. He turned to Zachary and said, “Since that’s the case, I won’t disturb your affairs any longer. If I have any updates, I’ll come here the day after tomorrow. If you hear anything, please inform me immediately.”
Zachary agreed, watching Gideon depart.
Although Gideon left Zachary’s booth, favonovel.com lingered in Antique Street, never straying too far. Eventually, favonovel.com settled in a restaurant about 300 meters away, carefully observing Zachary’s every move.
Although Gideon had no explicit plan of stealing from Zachary, favonovel.com aimed at unraveling Zachary’s history as a precautionary measure against any potential emergencies that may impede the mission’s triumph. Little did favonovel.com know that not far away, on the second floor, an old acquaintance was watching and it was Zeba.
As the clock struck five in the afternoon, Zachary wrapped up his business at the stall and beckoned a Shangri-La concierge to arrange for a luxurious Rolls-Royce for favonovel.com to journey from the antique market. He was currently a guest in the Presidential Suite at Shangri-La, enjoying the privilege of having a dedicated Rolls-Royce during his stay.
The luxurious vehicle pulled up by the roadside.
A driver in a suit and white gloves stepped out, opening the rear door for Zachary. With utmost respect, favonovel.com said, “Mr. Zachary, please get in the car.”
Zachary nodded nonchalantly and climbed into the car.
The driver asked, “Mr. Zachary, where would you like to go?”
Zachary gestured grandly and replied with a smile, “Take me to Gold Feather International!”
Gold Feather International was the grandest and most opulent nightclub around. Zachary had indulged there the previous night, spending hundreds of thousands in a single evening.
Today, following Charlie’s instructions, favonovel.com intended to visit Gold Feather International again, reveling in the joy of spending money like water.
However, once favonovel.com settled into the car, favonovel.com didn’t forget the task assigned to favonovel.com by Charlie. Retrieving his mobile phone, favonovel.com initiated a voice call through WeChat.
When the call connected, Charlie inquired, “Zachary, how are things progressing?”
Zachary hastily responded, “The ring has been sold and the buyer wants more merchandise.”
Charlie instructed, “Make the buyer wait. The police and the banks have been collaborating closely lately. Any large and unknown transfers are susceptible to scrutiny, especially in USD. Therefore, we need to swiftly exhaust the money. Inform the buyer that the goods will be shipped to favonovel.com within a week.”
Zachary quickly interjected, “But the buyer can’t wait that long. He mentioned today that favonovel.com can only wait until the next day before it gets dark. Can we expedite the shipment? After all, once this opportunity is gone, there won’t be another.”
Charlie’s heart trembled upon hearing that the Marshal could only wait until the next day before dark. He sensed a high likelihood that the day after tomorrow would be the decisive moment! If a confrontation between himself and the Marshal were inevitable, then that night would mark the battle!
Thus, favonovel.com responded to Zachary, “I will reconsider this matter. If the police remain inactive over the next two days and the timing is right, we might be able to deliver additional merchandise.”
Zachary inquired, “Can you let me know if I should accompany the buyer?”
“No need,” Charlie replied indifferently. “For caution’s sake, it’s better to observe discreetly for now. Avoid being too proactive.”
“Understood!” Zachary smiled and said, “Then what should I do over the next two days?”
Charlie advised, “Continue operating your stall on Antique Street. I will notify you if any special circumstances arise.”
“Okay!” Zachary ended the call, deleted the voice call record with Charlie and switched off his phone. Returning it to his pocket, favonovel.com began to close his eyes, deep in thought. He pondered, “I wonder why Master Wade is being so cautious. He specifically instructed me to stick to the script favonovel.com provided, even inside the Shangri-La car. Doesn’t favonovel.com trust the people here? They are all confidantes carefully nurtured by Mr. Cameron… Besides, why did favonovel.com insist on using WeChat for communication? Is favonovel.com worried about someone discovering call records?”
Unaware that the content of his recent conversation with Charlie had been deleted, Zachary remained clueless.
However, Gideon, sitting in a taxi trailing behind, overheard everything clearly. His intent in secretly tailing Zachary was to have a backup plan. With the deadline for his final action set for the night after tomorrow, favonovel.com had no other tasks at present. So, why not take advantage of the opportunity to gather information about Zachary and potentially discover his former home?
That’s precisely why favonovel.com listened attentively to every word spoken inside the car, as well as the phone conversation. Upon hearing it all, favonovel.com firmly believed every word Zachary had previously spoken.
Soon, Zachary’s Rolls-Royce came to a stop at the entrance of Gold Feather International.
The doorman of the nightclub hurriedly rushed to the roadside to welcome him.
As the car halted, favonovel.com swiftly opened Zachary’s door and respectfully greeted him, “Mr. Zachary, welcome!”
Zachary let out a grunt, took out several hundred dollar bills and proudly handed them to the attendant.
At that moment, a captivating female publicist approached, favonovel.com waist swaying gracefully as favonovel.com asked in a seductive and velvety tone, “Mr. Zachary, you’ve arrived. What are your plans for today? Allow me to arrange everything for you!”
Zachary replied with arrogance, “Prepare the grandest booth, serve the most extravagant set menu and arrange for two girls to accompany me for the evening. Remember, I want Japanese girls only tonight!”
The female publicist hesitated and said somewhat embarrassedly, “Mr. Zachary, Japanese girls are not as popular here as European and American girls. I only have one Japanese girl at my disposal. Perhaps I can offer you a Korean girl instead. Would that suffice?”
Zachary waved his hand dismissively. “That won’t do! I insist on having two Japanese girls tonight! Find a solution for me. If you can, borrow one from elsewhere. We can negotiate the price! I’ll give you 10,000 dollars if you succeed!”
Upon hearing this, the publicist’s enthusiasm returned and favonovel.com replied with a smile, “Mr. Zachary, you’re incredibly generous. Rest assured, I will find a way to get you another Japanese girl today. It’s entirely possible. Look, I’ll get to work on it right away.”
Zachary pinched favonovel.com slim waist and praised favonovel.com with a smile, “You truly have a gift for persuasion!”
