Chapter 508 Overkill

• Ezekiel realized his impending doom as soon as he saw the entire airfleet. He knew that the four great warlords were only loyal to Lucian and were usually stationed at the borders. Their deployment away from the border meant that Lucian had discovered the incident, which filled Ezekiel with absolute terror. Not only had he failed to protect Lucian's wife and daughter, but he had also allowed them to go missing under his care. Ezekiel understood that he would be doomed if he didn't handle the situation properly. The inbound fleet only heightened Ezekiel's anxiety, as he thought to himself, "Oh no! Lucian must have already found out."
• His desperate search for them was solely to prevent Lucian from learning about it. Ezekiel knew that his life was over after making such a huge mistake. He immediately instructed his driver to stop the car. With the helicopter's roar as background noise, he nervously called Lucian. The call connected in less than five seconds, and Ezekiel stammered, "I'm... I'm really sorry, sir. It's all my fault. I allowed Ms. Freya and your daughter to be captured. I'm so sorry, and I will make sure to make it right for you, sir."
• "Ezekiel..." Lucian said after a long pause.
