"Lucius... has been captured by Calydon's son?"
Pompey stood up abruptly, and the chair behind him was ripped off with a loud ripping sound.
The sudden noise startled everyone in the room; they had never expected Pompey to make such an expression.
Especially Fagga.
He frowned deeply and began to reassess Lucius's place in Pompey's heart.
Judging from his previous conversation with Pompey, he was very farsighted, knowing that blindly opening up the ether industry to the outside world would be detrimental in every way.
However, they did not let these drawbacks deter them or throw the baby out with the bathwater. Instead, they meticulously devised solutions.
A cake mixed with arsenic is still a cake. Break the cake, pick out the arsenic and throw it away, and then eat the cake.
This is Pompey's style of doing things, showing the prudence and boldness of a hegemon.
But now, Pompey's expression suddenly changed because of Lucius's kidnapping, which shows that Lucius is quite important to Pompey.
“I apologize, I lost my composure. However, Lucius is the second-in-command of our Triumphs, and he is young. His sudden kidnapping has indeed angered me... I apologize, but we may have to end this conversation early.”
Sure enough, Pompey bowed slightly the next moment to express his apology.
Without pausing for a moment, he turned and walked towards the door, waving goodbye:
"Help me gather the brothers of the Triumphs... no, just a few guards will do. Don't make a scene unless absolutely necessary. Also, please entertain my friends from New Elidu well, and the Triumphs will cover all expenses."
After saying that, Pompeo was about to leave the room and the dining room, heading straight for his motorcycle.
Insert the key, put on the helmet, kick open the side stand, twist your wrist to awaken the motorcycle's heart, and the sleeping beast instantly roars.
"etc!"
Suddenly, a shout from behind interrupted Pompey's next move. He turned around and saw Fagá and Eileen approaching, and was somewhat puzzled:
"Mr. Director, you..."
Faga adjusted his monocle, gestured for Elaine to get in the car with his hand behind his back, and then said:
“I’ll go with you. The journey here was a bit rushed, and I haven’t had a chance to properly get to know the second-in-command of the Triumphs. I want to see what kind of person he is.”
"Is that so? Then please drive faster. The situation is urgent, I won't slow down."
When Pompey saw that only Fagga and Ellen had come along, while the young master and his classmates remained in the restaurant, he assumed that Fagga, the director, was the main person there to discuss business, and that the young master was just a mascot.
But it doesn't matter who you talk to.
Therefore, Pompey had no doubt that Fagga wanted to meet Lucius, and simply asked Fagga to drive faster.
"It's okay, my assistant is a very good driver, and she usually drives."
Fagar laughed and opened the passenger door of the SUV.
Upon hearing this, Pompey's last remaining worries vanished, and he suddenly exerted force with his left foot, pushing the motorcycle away from its tilted position.
"In that case, I'll give it my all. Please floor the accelerator!"
Buzz!
The motorcycle sped off, leaving a long whistle behind it.
Especially after leaving the city, there was no longer the constraint of 20 yards. The overlord's chariot could no longer suppress itself, and with a sudden roar, it broke free of all shackles. With a loud bang, Pompey shot out like lightning.
Seeing this, Pompey's two bodyguards quickly drove after them.
"Eileen, go! Let them see the speed of a ferocious deep-sea shark in the sand!"
Fagar fastened his seatbelt, exuding confidence and charisma.
Eileen rolled her eyes at Faga. With no one else around, she seemed more relaxed, even daring to use her tail to push the gear lever. Her free right hand reached over and pinched Faga's cheek, pouting in dissatisfaction:
"You talk too much, you think you're so funny... and you're hiding? Come closer, I can barely touch you. If you stay too far away, I'll have to use my tail to touch you."
"Tsk, suddenly I feel like staying in the restaurant to slack off with the class monitor and Ruby."
