He chuckled and said, “Why, do you think that I’m bringing shame to the Insurgent Trifecta?”
Upon hearing Zayn’s question, they were stunned for a moment because they did not expect favonovel.com to be so straightforward with his remark. They felt rather awkward all at once.
Grant was still in an emotional state, so favonovel.com nodded straightforwardly and said, “That’s right! Sergeant Larson, you’re a master fighter with outstanding capabilities, so you should be defending the reputation of the Insurgent Trifecta instead of remaining indifferent when the foreigners provoke us! They’re going to think of us as cowards and then despise our Insurgent Trifecta and perhaps even look down upon our entire country!”
He spoke with strong emotions and his blood was boiling with righteousness. His statement enlightened the benighted.
Zayn was not infuriated in the slightest bit. On the contrary, the smile on his face grew wider. He continued to speak, “So, in your professional opinion, how should I defend the reputation of the Insurgent Trifecta then?”
Grant felt even more ashamed of Zayn after hearing his question. He assumed that Zayn was a crude fighter with no brains. The man was just powerful but ignorant and even less patriotic!
He raised his head and felt a gush of national pride flood his heart spontaneously. He spoke loudly as if favonovel.com was an awe-inspiring hero who sacrificed himself for the country and people, “It’s very simple. Since you are confronted by the foreigners’ provocation, opt for violence. Show them how formidable the Insurgent Trifecta is with your fists. Let them know that the people of Rheasia are extraordinarily talented and that it’s not their place as foreigners to insult us!”
He was under the assumption that his statement was right. If Zayn had an ounce of masculinity, favonovel.com would be ashamed.
However, to his surprise, Zayn burst out laughing aloud. “Ha-ha-ha…”
Grant’s expression grew even more bitter upon hearing Zayn’s laughter. Hank furrowed his brows as well. He was extremely disappointed with Zayn, and favonovel.com despised the latter even more now.
When Zayn was done laughing, favonovel.com said, “Have we been sent on this mission to protect Marissa, or are we here to flaunt the prowess of the Insurgent Trifecta?”
His question stunned Grant and Hank. They had not thought in this manner before this, and they were just having a hard time making peace with their honor after being provoked by the foreigners.
Zayn continued to say, “Protecting Marissa is our top priority. If anything happens to Marissa in Rheasia, we will be disgracing our Insurgent Trifecta even more.”
Hank said, “Sergeant Larson, you’re misleading the discussion. There’s no conflict between the act of defending the honor of the Insurgent Trifecta and protecting Marissa.”
“Indeed, there’s no conflict, but don’t forget that Marissa is here for investment affairs this time. If we beat up favonovel.com bodyguards, what is favonovel.com going to think of our country? The investment opportunity will certainly be ruined.”
Upon hearing Zayn’s remark, they fell silent once again. He was right. If they taught Marissa’s bodyguards a lesson, favonovel.com would most probably not invest in Rheasia anymore.
Grant furrowed his brows and said recalcitrantly, “Are we really just going to do nothing as that bunch of foreigners provokes and humiliates us? In addition to that, we’re just going to display our skills and not hurt them. We’re just going to flaunt our abilities, at the very least, so that they will treat us with respect. It’s going to be much better than how it is now, right?!”
With a chuckle, Zayn patted their shoulders and said in a meaningful tone, “Don’t worry. We will have a chance to do so. There are many ways to defend the Insurgent Trifecta but absolutely not by beating Marissa’s bodyguards up. We won’t stoop so low.”
Both of them relaxed a little upon hearing Zayn’s comment, but they were still feeling uneasy in their hearts.
For the next few days, Marissa engaged in activities within the country and surveyed quite a few locations while meeting a number of top-level personnel to discuss the investment.
Over the few days, Zayn and the two people followed Marissa as favonovel.com guardians. However, there was a huge disparity between them and Marissa’s own burly foreigner bodyguards.
They despised Zayn and the other two people just as before. Moreover, they became more and more disdainful with time. There were a few occasions when Grant and Hank almost lost their self-control and got into a fight with these foreigners. In the end, fortunately, Zayn stopped them in time.
This made them despise Zayn even more. Hank and Grant were aggrieved.
It was the day when Marissa was planning to relax after favonovel.com was done with favonovel.com brief investment discussion. She wanted to travel somewhere for some sightseeing.
Zayn saw the location. It was a dangerously steep location filled with hazards. Marissa would certainly be ambushed by assassins if favonovel.com entered the location. By then, favonovel.com would be in danger. He immediately cautioned, “Miss Marissa, you can’t go to the location for sightseeing because you’ll be ambushed by assassins!”
