Chapter 1255 - 1254: Phone Call

Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, Zobek's body instantly froze. Looking at Lu Yu's half-smiling expression in front of him, he momentarily didn't know how to respond.

Zobek, at this moment, unexpectedly didn't know how to deal with Lu Yu's question.

Currently, Zobek had no idea what Lu Yu was planning. He simply couldn't understand why Lu Yu was so adamant about having him call someone over.

Though Zobek hailed from a prominent family, his insight was anything but shallow. He always felt that Lu Yu must have a special purpose for doing this.

Even if he knew, Zobek couldn't voice a single word of refusal!

Zobek understood that he was completely at Lu Yu's mercy, like a fish on the chopping board, with no ability to resist.

"What are you standing there for?"

Seeing Zobek caught in a dilemma, Lu Yu coldly spoke, his gaze full of menace, staring intently at Zobek, "Have you made up your mind?"

Lu Yu's eyes slightly narrowed, like those of a hawk, emitting a chilling glint. He then said, "I'm really looking forward to your answer now!"

As he spoke, the icy glare in Lu Yu's eyes became even colder, piercing into Zobek's heart like a steel needle, causing a violent contraction within him.

For a moment, Zobek had no idea how to answer Lu Yu's question.

"You really don't know what's good for you!"

Seeing Zobek's lack of response, Lu Yu instantly lost patience. In a flash, he grasped Zobek's neck and lifted him like a chick.

Being lifted by Lu Yu, Zobek struggled frantically, but how could his strength compare to Lu Yu's?

No matter how fiercely he struggled, it was all in vain; the gap in strength between them was simply too vast.

Zobek resembled a small animal, his strength incapable of breaking free from Lu Yu's control!

"No need to struggle!"

Feeling Zobek struggling in his grip, Lu Yu coldly remarked, his eyes icy, "You have two choices now."

With his eyes narrowed, Lu Yu continued, "First, obediently make the call and bring someone over."

"Second, I'll use my strength to crush you to death!"

Lu Yu's eyes flashed sharply, "Of these two outcomes, you choose wisely; don't blame me for not warning you!"

While talking, Lu Yu's gaze was full of decisiveness, appearing exceedingly formidable.

"I, I..."

With Lu Yu clutching his throat, Zobek fearfully spoke up, "I'll choose the first one!"

Zobek's words were filled with fright. Under Lu Yu's threat, he quickly compromised.

Everyone cherishes their life, and as the son of a prominent family, Zobek was no exception. Looking at Lu Yu, he made the wisest choice.

He didn't want to die, so in this situation, he decided to call his family members over!

Zobek knew very well that if he dared to say a word of refusal, Lu Yu would crush him without hesitation.

"Very good."

Hearing Zobek's words, Lu Yu smiled slightly, displaying a faint smile, "Since that's the case, call them over obediently. If you can't do that, don't blame me for being ruthless."

As he spoke, Lu Yu's fingers tightened, sending a powerful force toward Zobek's throat.

The force was so strong it made Zobek feel a sense of suffocation!

"I'll call!"

Feeling the suffocation, Zobek hurriedly said, "I'll call right now!"

His voice was trembling, his face a ghastly shade of liver red from the oxygen deprivation.

"That's more like it."

Hearing Zobek's voice, Lu Yu nodded, immediately tossing Zobek away with his arm.

Thud!

Instantly, Zobek was thrown to the ground by Lu Yu, landing with a heavy thud.

The sound echoed in the vast lobby of the Newman Group, a dull resonance.

Blergh!

Slamming onto the ground, Zobek spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale, starkly contrasted with the blood on his lips, strikingly conspicuous.

"Now, get someone over here immediately."

Looking down at Zobek, Lu Yu spoke with an imposing authority, "If I don't see anyone shortly, I won't hesitate to kill you."

As he spoke, Lu Yu's voice was icy, laced with a sharp, lethal intensity that sent a chill down one's spine.

"Yes, yes."

Feeling the lethal edge in Lu Yu's words, Zobek didn't hesitate, picking up the phone, dialing his family's number, and pressing the call button.

"Hello, hello, this is Zobek."

Once the call connected, Zobek said, panic in his eyes, "I'm at Newman Group, threatened by force. The enemy is formidable. Hurry, get Father here."

As he spoke, Zobek's voice was subdued and fearful, unable to afford any delay, compelled to follow Lu Yu's instructions.

Any slight mistake, and Lu Yu would kill him without mercy!

"Understood, young master, I'll inform the Duke immediately!"

Hearing Zobek, a man's voice came through the phone.

The voice was urgent, recognizing the severity of the situation.

Their master being threatened by force was indeed a pressing matter!

(Dammit, since taking this crappy job, it's one meeting after another, from dawn to dusk, and I swear to God, I'm done arguing with my boss about it, no more meetings, finish three chapters by 11 at the latest! Enough complaining)
