章節 252: Ares' Preparations [2]

Ares couldn't refute, even though he knew Zeus' prejudice against Neo was solely due to the Hargraves family name.

"Why do you guys always call me after you've messed everything up?"

Zeus clicked his tongue in irritation.

"Fine. I will deal with Neo Hargraves and Jack Hanma."

"Thank you, and stay safe."

"I don't need well wishes to deal with two brats."

Zeus hung up the call.

The sound of the disconnect echoed in the tent.

Ares exhaled a long sigh and stared at the tent's ceiling.

Hanna, his secretary, could tell Ares was under immense mental pressure.

She watched as he clenched his jaw and his shoulders tensed under the weight of his responsibilities.

He was hiding his burdens.

He couldn't show his weakness in front of his subordinates, especially in hard times like now when they needed his support. He had to act as their pillar.

"It will be fine," Emma spoke up.
