Ezekiel said nothing, but his face gradually darkened. Without making it obvious, he glanced at the beautiful woman beside him.
The Soryan woman was Ezekiel's personal bodyguard and technical specialist. She shook her head at Ezekiel. This meant she was telling Ezekiel that the device was working fine. So, there was no way to prove that Andrew had stolen the Blackstar Crystal.
"Alright, enough with all this scanning. Does this thing even work?" Finally, Andrew made his move and slapped the device away with one hand.
Ezekiel suppressed his rage and laughed coldly. "Andrew, you've got some real skills, managing to slip past this."
Andrew looked disdainful as he replied, "I already told you that I stole it. Too bad you don't have proof, so what can you do about it? Anyway, goodbye!"
He pushed past Ezekiel and Kyrie and walked away with big strides, taking Aspen and Natasha with him.
The two Soryan women beside Ezekiel were about to make their deadly move.
"Don't move… At least not now. It's not the right time," Ezekiel ordered in Soryan.
Kyrie could not believe it. "Are we just going to let him walk away like that? You're really going to let him go?"
Ezekiel sneered. "If I don't let him go, then I'd appreciate it if you, General, could keep him here for me. Can you do that?"
Kyrie frowned. "What do you mean? Are you mocking me?"
