200 Arrogant Fellow (1/2)

”Hold!!!” Zach suddenly shouted that made Draco pause as he looked at Mr. Big, asking for his Boss' signal.

”How about my right-hand man? Let my right-hand man exercise his fists on that loser. Let's see how good of a fighter the CEO of the Liu Group can be.” Zach suggested mockingly, with a one-sided smile on his face.

”I actually know this guy, Mr. Big. And to be honest, he just rubs me up the wrong way... Just because he's from a powerful and wealthy family, he thinks he can always have things his way. I want his head!” he said appearing calm and relaxed, even looking slightly amused at the thought of having Jeru's head, but had actually been cursing inwardly, because the signal that they had been waiting for still had not arrived.

Mr. Big arched a brow as he asked, ”You know this man personally? So you are probably also a part of high society?”

Mr. Big's curiosity on Wolf's identity was once again piqued… But Wolf only chuckled as he replied, ”Probably… You can keep on guessing, Mr. Big, but one thing is for sure… this guy annoys the hell outta me. He's an arrogant fellow who needs to be taught a lesson!!!”

Thea gasped, hearing the familiar voice from the man with a mask. 'Zach...' she mused as her heart almost jumped out of her chest with joy. They still had hope! Zach was here and it could only mean that the Military back-up would arrive soon.

”Arrogant?! Me?!” Jeru sniggered inside because he could feel that Zach had meant every word he said, putting emphasis on the word 'arrogant'. He spit out the blood in his mouth and wiped it off his chin as soon as Draco released him.

He looked around and assessed the situation on how he could move fast to protect Thea. That was his task at hand while Zach was in charge of Leon.

Zach then looked at Torin after Mr. Big agreed to his request. Torin widened his eyes at Zach saying, ”Me? Why me?” But Zach ignored him as he gestured him to go and hit Jeru.

Torin attacked Jeru in haste but Jeru quickly dodged it. Jeru understood that Zach was just stalling for time when he suggested that Torin fought with him instead of Draco.

'Dammit, it looks like the signal isn't here yet!' Jeru mused as he exchanged meaningful glances with Torin.

Jeru noticed that Zach had vaguely been moving himself closer and closer to Mr. Big. If Zach could get ahold of Mr. Big, all of his men would have to hold fire. He stretched his neck before he smirked at Torin.

Torin had a weary face when he saw Jeru's smirk. 'Darn it!' He cursed silently. Jeru would definitely give them a good show… 'Oh my poor body!' He added silently as he prepared himself for Jeru's attacks.

Jeru ran towards Torin but instead of fiercely fighting each other and giving each other a good blow, they were just scuffling, using the mixed martial arts techniques of striking and grappling as if they were just sparring with each other.

”Fu*cking hell, Boss!!! Are they kids playing around on the playground? What is this shit, Boss?” Complained Draco as he watched the two who were still wrestling with each other without actually making an effort to hurt each other.

Meanwhile, Leon's face was blank as he observed the ongoing fight. He then shifted his look to Chin, and then at Thea.

'Something is off!' he mused...

He suddenly noticed a loophole in Chin's story. Chin had told him that she was abducted by Jeru, but then somehow had managed to outwit him. But then again, how...?

He had observed Jeru's movements. Even with his injuries Jeru was still able to dodge his opponent's attacks with his swift and nimble movements as though he could read his opponent's mind and predict the next move. That was not only a trait of a good fighter, but also that of a clever man. There was no way Chin was able to outwit him.

Moreover, he recalled that Jeru had been tied up when he boarded the ship. And judging from Jeru's fighting skills, it could not have been possible for Chin to tie him up like that without Jeru's cooperation.

So, there could only be one conclusion... Just as she said before, she was indeed trying to outwit someone. But instead of Jeru, the person whom she was trying to outwit was… him.
