Lina’s expression darkened, and anger surged within her. She was about to say something when Zuko stepped

forward and blocked her behind him. It momentarily stunned her.

Zuko’s broad back shielded her completely, preventing her from seeing Violet’s malicious smile or the wicked faces

of the thugs. He was like a wall, isolating her from the ugliness of the world.

Lina’s heart warmed, and she wore a barely noticeable smile.

Zuko’s voice turned cold. “Ms. Grist, if you have something to say, say it to me.”

“Say it to you? Who do you think you are?” Violet crossed her arms and sneered. “It seems like you’re enjoying

your newlywed life. You’re quite protective of her! Is this little b*tch skilled in bed to make you so devoted?”

“Violet Grist, watch your mouth! You—”

Before Lina could finish her sentence, Zuko pressed her head back behind him.

Lina then lifted her little head from under Zuko’s arm on the other side. “Violet! You—”

“Go back!” Zuko continued to press her like he was playing whack-a-mole.

Regardless, he would not allow Lina to face this group of people alone.

Violet clapped her hands and sarcastically remarked how deeply in love the two of them were. She then signaled

with her eyes, and immediately someone from the van unloaded boxes of drinks.

Violet’s voice became sharp. “Lina Jenner, let me tell you some good news. Our Rose Dew from the Grist Group has

been rebranded and relaunched! Hahaha! Are you disappointed? You reported us for such a long time, but we’re

still making money! How many merchants are still on your side?”

Lina bit her lip. Unfortunately, this “wall” in front of her was thick and solid, denying her any opportunity to curse at

people.

Violet was triumphantly pleased as she pulled out a procurement contract.

It clearly stated that all beverages in Jazzy Mint supermarket were to be procured from the Grist Group for a period

of 20 years.

“Lina, this contract bears the signatures of your parents. You wouldn’t dare to default, would you?” Violet smiled

cunningly. “I kindly brought these few boxes of goods for you. Sell them all within three days!”

“You’re shameless!” Lina’s head emerged from under Zuko’s arm again. “This contract was signed last year, but it’s

clearly an unfair clause! You took advantage of my parents’ lack of understanding and forced them to sign it!”

Violet sneered. “Heh! The contract has been signed. Are you trying to back out? You little b*tch, be careful. I’ll sue

you in court!”

“Fine! I’d love to ask the judge why we merchants have to continue selling your products with quality issues!”

“You!” Violet could not gain any advantage in the argument, so she ordered the thugs to smash the store!

Since the day Lina started reporting the Grists, Violet had planned it out. This small supermarket was the only

capital for Lina’s family’s survival. As long as she caused trouble every now and then, made things difficult for Lina

at university, and prevented her family from doing business, she would love to see what else Lina could do against

her.

However, Lina not only dared to continue fighting against her, but she also seemed more aggressive than before.

Violet gritted her teeth in anger.

It was said that someone had started investigating the accounts of the Grist Group. All of this was thanks to that

despicable girl!

“What are you all standing there for?” Violet clenched her fists. Every word she spoke seemed to carry a nail.

“Since they refuse to sell our products, I’ll ruin their store!”

“Wait!” Zuko let out a low roar.

His low, chilling voice was like a lion intimidating a pack of hyenas, leaving everyone stunned. The thugs all looked

at each other, afraid to make a move.

As Zuko’s icy gaze swept across the crowd, eventually fixing upon Violet, a shiver ran down her spine. However, she

fought to maintain her composure.

Zuko spoke slowly, enunciating each word. “Ms. Grist, how’s this contract written? Can I take a look?”

“You?” Violet sneered.

She held a deep-seated belief that he was nothing more than a truck driver, lacking intelligence, relying on brute

force, and with a history of criminal activities and time spent behind bars.

“Zeke, can you read?” she asked mockingly.

“Ms. Grist, are you testing me?” Zuko smirked. “If you want to know if I can read, give me the contract. I’ll read it

line by line, and you’ll know, won’t you?”

“Hahaha!” Violet and the thugs burst into laughter.

He really was a big fool. He could not even tell that she was mocking him!

The more it was like that, the more entertaining it became.

Violet arrogantly handed him the contract. “I’m coincidentally in a good mood today. Go ahead and read it! I’m

listening.”

Zuko smiled and took the contract.

There was a red stamp on the last page, meaning this was not a photocopy of the original document.

Lina glanced at him and pointed to a certain line—the contract consisted of two copies, with each party holding one

copy. Photocopies had no legal effect.

Zuko nodded and gave her a look.

Lina immediately understood and whispered in his ear, “The other copy is at home.”

“Good.” Zuko smirked.

In fact, unfair agreements like this were easy to challenge. It would have no legal effect even if it were the original

document.

It was just that the other merchants had been enduring silently under the tyranny of the Grists, only seeking to live

in peace.

“Hey, are you going to read it or not?” Violet shook her head and teased Lina. “Lina, what did you tell him? Did you

tell him how to read those words?”

Zuko blocked Lina with his arm, pushing her behind him.

In the split second, when no one reacted, he quickly tore the contract into pieces!

“Zeke Hamerton!” Violet screamed, watching the shredded pieces of paper fall to the ground. Anger distorted her

facial features.

“What are you doing? You unilaterally breached the contract! I… I can sue you! I’ll sue you until you go bankrupt!”

she barked.

“Breach the contract?” Zuko raised an eyebrow. “What contract did I breach, Ms. Grist? Do you have any

evidence?”

“You breached the procurement contract just now! You—”

“And where is the contract?” asked Zuko.

Violet froze.

The original contract had only two copies—one in Lina’s hands, and the other had just been torn to shreds by this

man.

Zuko sneered. “Ms. Grist, since this contract wasn’t signed through proper channels, there’s no need to terminate it

through proper means. Proper ways should be reserved for proper people.”

He turned to look at Lina. “Lina, am I right?”
