To tell the truth, Ruth Wilcox's phone call had saved Lucy Clayton's life, because if she had a meeting with Yusuf Zuck at seven in the morning, Yusuf wouldn't be able to come here after seven.
Yusuf had been somewhat hesitant, especially since through his interactions with Lucy, he had come to respect her. She had guts and bloodlust, making her a respectable opponent!
Yusuf himself carried an air of the Jianghu, but Lucy's was even thicker.
Of course, letting Lucy off was not to say he had completely spared her. Before he left, he said that Lucy's life was now his. He would continue to observe her.
When Yusuf walked out of the main villa building, the cheongsam-clad Ariel Higgins presented him with a cheque, on which was written the figure of one billion.
