Chapter 458: Chapter 458

They had been looking for a way for them to work around everything for the last few days but they had been unable to find a way out.

Zach should have been happy that Ronaldo was offering to do it for free and he shouldn’t have been trying to turn down the offer.

Ass someone in the army he may have taken offence by his words and he may have even gone as far as taking. It as a threat.

The last thing that they needed was to make yet another enemy out of the military. They were ruthless and they were much stronger than any force that they had met before now.

If they were to go up against them it would have been a terrible mistake on their part. One thing was surer and that was the fact that the military was a force to be reckoned with.

"I am sorry about that Zach didn’t mean to offend you." Andy said in a hurry. He knew that it wouldn’t be good for them if they were to start a war with them.

He had to try and diffused the situation before it got any more out of hand.

"Well I only spoke the truth because why is he selfish and not willing to allow us to enjoy some of the goods as well." He said to him with a chuckle.,

Andy was silent for a moment as in a sense he did agree with Ronaldo. But he knew better than to say it out loud. He had to show that he was on the side of Zach and even if he didn’t agree with him he would have to tell him that later on and he wouldn’t be able to say it in front of Ronaldo.

"You know how men are with their women they wouldn’t want to share her. So you understand why he would be so protective over her. Don’t think of it as him trying to insult you. He is only trying to protect his own and nothing more." Andy said to him as he tried to explain the situation to him.

He hoped that the commander would understand what he was implying and that he wouldn’t take offense in Zach’s words.

He didn’t want the situation to bubble into something that was much bigger than it already was.

Her owed everything that he had to be on Zach’s side. He owed Zach a lot and he knew that he had to do everything that he could in order to assure Ronaldo that he was on his side.

Andy knew that there was nothing that he could do for Zach that would be enough to repay him for everything that he had done for him.

Zach had been there to lift him up when he was down and he had pulled him out of one of his toughest spots.

Without the smiths and Zach Andy wouldn’t have been able to reach where he was at that very moment.

He owed them a lot and for that it was more of a debt that he knew that he would never be able to repay in this life.

He could only try.

He knew that he would have to do his best in order to make sure that he diffused the situation carefully.

If they were to make Ronaldo angry then he would certainly come back for them and this time he would be angrier than ever and it would be much harder for them to get away from his clutches than that of the government.

"Well I hope that he is able to come and apologize for that behavior of his because I will not be helping him out unless he does." Ronaldo said to him in a mutter.

Andy hummed nodding his head art him but he knew how Zach was and he knew that the chances of him coming back to apologize were slim.

"Yes of curse he is sorry. You know that he wouldn’t do anything that would cause you to be upset." Andy said to him as he lied through his teeth.

"Zach and the smiths all respect you and the rest of the military and they know that they need you in order to prevent any more threats from the government and that is why we are here so that we can strike a deal with you. The last thing that we want or the last thing that we want to do is to cause any trouble." Andy said to him as he tried to tell him what was happening.

He watched as something flickered within Ronaldo’s eyes. He knew men like him and he. Knew that he was the type of person that enjoyed getting his ego caressed. The only way that he would still be up for the deal was if Zach were to apologize.

However Zach was just as stubborn as he was and he knew that he wouldn’t apologize for something that he didn’t do.

Zach was stood towards the back as he watched the two of them interact. He had hoped that with him walking out of the room that some of his anger would diminish but him seeing the fact that Ronaldo didn’t feel sorry for what he had done he felt something inside of him snap.

he had to teach him a lesson and deal with him once and for all. Without warning he pulled his hand out of Brittany’s and marched out from the back room.

Her made his way towards the table watching as Andy tensed as he looked towards him in shock.

"Are you back to apologize." Ronaldo asked tsking a sip of his drink. However Zach chuckled darky as he grabbed him by the scoff of the neck.

Ronaldo’s eyes widened with both bewilderment and fear. ’Don’t do anything stupid." He warned but Zach was too far gone to care.

Without warning he balled his hands up into a fist before slamming his fist against Ronaldo’s face. Ronaldo closed his eyes going limp in his arms before Zach dropped him into the seat.

"Why would you do that!" Andy called out in panic. Zach only shook his head at him in response before walking away from him.

Zach walked back to where Brittany was as Andy watched the passed out Ronaldo in his chair. This was very bad and he knew that they couldn’t risk anything happening to the commander. He wished that Zach had tried to at least be more civil instead of taking the opportunity to lash out.

"Why couldn’t you have just apologized to each other and moved on." Andy called out exasperatedly as he knew that at the end of the day he was the one who would have to clean up Zach’s mess. He knew things had just gone from bad to worse.

It was almost as if Andy didn’t know him. Zach wasn’t going to apologize not after the way the commander had acted and the only way that the two of them could carry on and work together was if the commander were to change his ways and stop throwing rude words towards Brittany.

"I am sorry." Brittany said as she took in the situation that seemed to be escalating around her. She couldn’t help but blame herself for what was going on. Maybe if she wasn’t here then nothing would have happened.

She watched as Zach turned towards her with a hardened gaze before shaking his head.

"Why are you apologizing. You have done nothing wrong." He said to her and she gulped because the truth was that although his words were meant to comfort her it didn’t stop the nagging feeling inside of her.

"I know that you said that but if it wasn’t for me then he wouldn’t have made you angry and you would be able to use his services." she said to him.

Zach hardened his gaze as he looked towards the commander one last time before turning back to her.

"You are right. We would have been able to secure the deal by now if you weren’t here. but I wouldn’t have been able to learn the type of person that he was and I wouldn’t have found out that he is a horrible person. So that is thanks to you." He said to her.

She didn’t know how to feel after that as she watched him give her as tight smile. "Well what are you going to do now." She found herself asking him.

He thought over it for a moment before tightening his hold on her hand and tugging her forward. "I am going to get us out of here."

Brittany widened her eyes at his words as she tried to free her hand from his grip and she shook her head from side to side.

She couldn’t help but feel as though if they were to leave now it was going to send the wrong signal to the military and that was the last thing that she wanted.

"No please you don’t have to do that. The last thing that I want to do is to cause trouble. You can just go back I there and apologize and then you guys can patch everything up and you don’t have to turn this into a nig deal.;" she tried to explain to him.

However she watched as he stopped un his steps for a moment. He tensed up before turning around to look at her.

"You have been with the smiths for a while and it is safe to say that you know me fairly well."
