Chapter 31
The prople in the private room who were high on drips clearly didn’t understand what had happened. Jirn looked at all the guests for a while before letting out a sigh. He informed the waiter beside him, “Call the palice ”
The waiter was shocked. The people working in The Eve of Lost Age all knew what illegal activities were involved here. These activities were the source of their income and also helped gather connections between business partners,
If they called the police new, there was no way The Eye of Last Age wouldn’t be p
punished.

Jim also knew what he was about to give up. However, he couldn’t help the shiver running down his spine as he recalled Zayne’s expression when he had left earlier.
When he tumed back to the trust fund kids in the room, he couldn’t help the disgust oozing out of his eyes. He was angry at them for trying to hurt the person who was protected by Zayne in his place and not somewhere else. However, he couldn’t do anything else.
His only option was to come clean and deal with them as fast as possible. It not, Zayne would make sure the fallout was far worse.
Enrica didn’t know what happened after that. She buried herself in Zayne’s arms, watching him walkout of The Eye of Lost Age without being stopped. He stopped a cab and took her home.
She was finally saved.
Enrica’s body couldn’t stop shaking as tears kept streaming down her cheeks. The thought of what had almost happened made her drown in regret
She regretted being so impulsive and agreeing to come to this kind of place just like that. She thought she had prepared everything. But in reality, her preparations were nothing in the eyes of those people.
Feeling the trembles of the woman in his arms, Zayne pressed his lips into a thin line. The streetlights flashed through the cab’s windows and cast shifting shadows on his face, making his expression unreadable,
When they reached home, Zayne slowly put Enrica on the couch before telling her in a deep voice, “Those people will reap what they sow.”
Enrica strank to a comer on the couch and looked up at Zayne before her. Itis tall frame covered her fully in his shadow. Although expressionless, hus lips curled down slightly as he carried a menacing air around him.
She opened her mouth and carefully asked in a slightly hoarse voice, “Are you angry?”
She knew the trouble she had caused today was very stupid. But she wouldn’t have agreed to join the gathering if she had another option. Ultimately, she just thought too highly of Rohana
Ennica didn’t know what had gone wrong on Zack’s end. If it hadn’t been for Zayne, she couldn’t imagine what would have happened.
However, Zeyne wouldn’t be in a place like that for no reason. He might have neglected his clients or even offended them just to save her. It was reasonable for him to be angry at her
Enrica lowered her head and said with difficulty, “Thank you for saving me today.”

Enrica looked up to him and asked with uncertainty, “Really?”

Lowering her head, Enrica couldn’t help the sting in her nose. After calming herself down, she explained everything.
While listening, Zayne’s brow furrowed deeply.
After realizing her strange behavior a while ago, he had his assistant investigate if anything abnormal had happened to the Schubert family. His assistant might larer only investigated taurica and Cules, not considering Julian as part of the Schubert family.
Because of that, Zayne massed this potentially deadly information.
