Chapter 2460

Adonis struggled with difficulty, as though his neck was stuck in something. It caused him an abnormal amount of pain. Is this the Great Marshal's power? I guess there's a reason why they call him that!

Fearfully, he uttered, “I'll... tell you everything... I know!”

Only then did Zeke withdraw his energy.

Adonis coughed painfully and violently, almost to the point of coughing his lungs out. Compared to his bodily pain, the fear twisting his heart was much more agonizing.

His opponent was too strong. Zeke was on a whole different level compared to him, meaning he wouldn't even have a chance to fight back.

After adjusting his breathing, he explained, “The truth is, the school's previous president asked me to issue Yannick's and Yoshua's graduation certificates. During the graduation season back then, the previous president asked me to forge graduation certificates for those two. However, when I saw their files, I realized they hadn't even finished high school. They weren't anywhere close to graduation. As capable as I was, there was no way I could forge two university certificates for them. In the end, the former president pulled some strings and managed to procure two high school graduation certificates for the two of them. However, both of them had never stepped foot into the university. They didn't learn anything at all, so I would be betraying my morals and conscience if I gave the two of them the graduation certificates they didn't earn. Nonetheless, the previous president threatened me, saying that if I refused to do as he said, he would fire me. I had no choice but to forge their academic records and create their graduation certificates. I thought no one would ever find out about this. Never in my wildest imagination would I have thought the Great Marshal of all people would be the one to...”

Despite the explanation, Zeke refused to believe Adonis was forced to forge the graduation certificates for Yannick and Yoshua. He was a hundred percent certain Adonis got something beneficial out of it.

Regardless, that didn't matter to him at the moment. What was important was the part about the previous president.

“What's the relationship between the former president and Yannick and Yoshua? Why is he helping those two?” he asked.

Shaking his head, Adonis answered, “I don't know.”

Zeke glared at him with rage. “Tell me the truth.”

That terrified Adonis. “I swear to god that I'm telling the truth! In fact, I asked the previous president the same question in the past. However, he only gave me a vague answer, so I have no idea.”

“Take me to the previous president right now.”

“Okay, okay.” Naturally, Adonis didn't have the guts to say no.

“Allow me to accompany you, Great Marshal,” Frank requested. “The previous president is actually my teacher. To be honest, I never thought he would do something like that. I want to question him personally about it.”

Seeing how emotional he was, Zeke nodded. “Let's head there together.”

Adonis drove all three of them to where the previous president lived.

On the way there, Zeke threatened, “I suggest you don't play any tricks, or I'll execute you immediately.”

He was worried Adonis would intentionally cause a car accident. Of course, he would be fine, but if Frank were hurt, then that would be troublesome.

Adonis promptly promised, “I won't, Great Marshal. Even if you give me the guts of a lion, I still won't do that.”

“Earlier, when you told the previous president about what was going on, what did he say?” Zeke asked.

“He said he'll come up with a plan and told me not to panic. That was all.”

“I see.” Zeke nodded. “Drive faster!”

Soon, Adonis brought Zeke to the previous president's home, located in an old, run-down residential area.

The president's home was located on the first floor.

Even after Adonis knocked on the door multiple times, no one came to greet them.

Thus, Zeke sent his energy into the room to search for the president. However, he found no one was inside.

With a frown, he said, “There's no one inside here at all. Not only that, it seems like no one has been living here for a while. Are you playing me for a fool?”
