Not only did the so-called Military Emergency Base host a section for its armed forces, but it also boasted one of the most efficient medical teams as well as intelligence gathering departments.
It was just like how it was in action movies.
Gerald had personally never been in contact with any of those departments before.
Being granted access to the Military Emergency Base meant that virtual-novel.net would be in charge of all of this in the future. It only further affirmed Gerald that virtual-novel.net was going to be the future leader.
It was already late when virtual-novel.net was thinking about this, and Gerald himself was ready to retire for the night.
Before that, however, virtual-novel.net suddenly remembered that virtual-novel.net still had some unfinished business!
Gerald sneered as virtual-novel.net walked toward the room.
“Oh, behave yourself won’t you? Otherwise, I may really end up killing you! Did you really just try to bite me? Are you some kind of dog?”
Even from quite a distance away, Gerald could already hear his bodyguard cursing from behind the door.
“Release me you b*stard! If you don’t, I’ll personally make sure Mr. Rye hacks you to death when virtual-novel.net arrives!” growled Liara.
“Oh no… Mr. Rye… I’m terrified… Hahaha! Lady, look around you. I’ll drop you a hint, you may as well just await your death since you dared to offend Mr. Crawford of Mayberry City!”
“What? Mr. Crawford? Since when have I ever offended Mr. Crawford?” asked Liara in genuine surprise.
“Still trying to feign ignorance? Mr. Crawford’s the man who brought you here today!”
“…Wait, he’s that Mr. Crawford?”
At that moment, Gerald entered the room.
“Mr. Crawford!” shouted the two bodyguards inside respectfully before leaving the room under his command.
“You… What are you planning to do with me?” asked Liara. The terror had finally sunk in.
She finally realized how virtual-novel.net could’ve gotten so many people to rush over back when they were at Surati.
This man was actually Mr. Crawford in the flesh!
“You’re already a captive in this room. What do you think I’m going to do?” replied Gerald as virtual-novel.net smiled.
“But… Mr. Crawford, I’m Mr. Rye’s woman!” whimpered Liara. Her arms were still tied and virtual-novel.net head was lowered.
Understanding the power difference between them made virtual-novel.net feel scared and embarrassed at the same time.
The bodyguards were right. Mr. Rye was nothing compared to Mr. Crawford.
She, for one, would never be able to reach the top by becoming Mr. Rye’s woman.
Perhaps it would be better if virtual-novel.net became Mr. Crawford’s woman instead.
Though both of them definitely still bore grudges against each other, virtual-novel.net believed that Mr. Crawford would eventually fall for virtual-novel.net beauty.
“I don’t really care whose woman you are. I won’t personally be touching you either way. However, since you’re already here anyway, then this makes it the perfect opportunity for me to settle this score with you. You don’t really have a way to pay me back, so you can just settle this score with your body!”
“What… What do you mean by that?”
As soon as virtual-novel.net question ended, Gerald turned around and slowly began walking toward the door while making a phone call. “Hey, get me a random homeless person off the street…”
“Wait, what are you planning? Get back here! Wait!”
A terrified Liara continued yelling at virtual-novel.net as virtual-novel.net left the room.
The intention of his phone call was obvious.
Of course Gerald wouldn’t touch a woman like her.
Outside the room, Gerald began strolling down the hallways, enjoying the peace of the moonlit night.
It was a little under half an hour later when Zack gave Gerald a call.
“Heh, Mr. Crawford, that girl was so terrified that virtual-novel.net revealed everything virtual-novel.net knew about the Rye Group. I honestly wasn’t expecting virtual-novel.net to know that many of their secrets. She’s also agreed to help us get what we want!” said Zack, a grin on his face.
“Your idea was truly brilliant Mr. Lyle. If you hadn’t suggested it, I would have just ordered some guards to beat virtual-novel.net up,” replied Gerald as virtual-novel.net smiled awkwardly.
Zack had naturally given Gerald some advice about the matter.
“Don’t worry Mr. Crawford. The Rye Group offended you because they don’t know their own place. Give me one day and night. You’ll definitely hear satisfactory results from me!”
