Isaac reminded Warwick of the incident at Diana’s birthday banquet, and his cheek started burning. He took a deep breath and threatened, “You won’t leave Aurum County alive if you hit me!”“Oh, yeah?” Isaac lit a cigarette as he walked toward Warwick.Albert and his wife held their breaths. Things would get out of hand if Isaac beat up Warwick here.As Isaac approached, Warwick felt an overwhelming pressure looming. But he held his breath and stood his ground.Suddenly, Diana lunged toward Isaac and held him back. “I’ll go with you. Don’t start another fight.”The consequences would be unbearable if Isaac beat up Warwick again.Diana’s grasp was powerful as she dragged Isaac toward the door.Albert and his wife let out sighs of relief. They felt their heartbeats returning to normal.“Isaac, if you’re a man, don’t run away like this.” Warwick was furious that Diana was willing to go with Isaac.Isaac stopped walking. He instructed, “Slap him!”Slap who?Diana swiveled on her

“Do you think nothing will happen if you stay in the car, Isaac?” Charles shouted.Warwick stepped forward and hollered, “Garten, I give you ten minutes. My men will start shooting if you are not out of the car by then.”Albert heard him, and his face paled instantly; Jane shrieked—her eyes rolled backward, and she fainted on the spot.“Warwick, for the sake of our friendship, please don’t harm Ana. She’s innocent!” Albert begged.He knew these soldiers were under Warwick’s command—they only listened to Warwick’s instructions.“Innocent? She should’ve known the consequences when she went off with Garten.” Warwick’s eyes were cold.Albert’s heart dropped, and his legs gave way. He kneeled in front of Warwick and started to beg earnestly.Diana saw everything, and tears ran down her cheeks.“How did it come to this? Isaac, what shall we do?” Diana shouted.Isaac stared at Warwick, who was as proud as a peacock, and his eyes turned cold. “Let’s get down.”The car doors clicked o

Everyone was astounded, more so Warwick. He grabbed the document and read it thoroughly.“What’s the meaning of this? What’s the reason for my dismissal?” Warwick roared at Old Jackson.Old Jackson shrugged. “There’s no reason. You may leave.” He commanded the soldiers, “Squad! Fall in. Dress right, dress. Ready, front. Dismiss.”Nobody dared disobey his orders. They assembled promptly and left in their respective vehicles.Warwick and Charles exchanged a glance. Albert was on pins and needles. The turn of events was too abrupt.When Warwick and Charles turned to leave, Isaac called out, “Did I say you could leave?”The dust had not settled. Albert bolted toward Beefy Bob and pulled Diana into his car.Warwick tensed up as Isaac approached. He was bleeding from his mouth and nose. He looked around to realize the only one who could help him at that moment was Albert.“Albert, please help me hold him off.”Albert looked up to see Warwick begging him. He smirked. “My wife is unco

The Beacon Clinic was ablaze with lights. Several luxury cars were parked outside; almost everyone in the Kane family was there.The provincial capital hospital had already classified Watson’s food poisoning case as critical. The chief doctor had simply explained that the toxins had already circulated through his body and that conventional medicine could no longer help him. All they could do was transfer him to the Beacon Clinic in hopes that holistic medicine would help.“Where is Mr. Crowe? Why hasn’t he come?” a middle-aged man sitting next to the bed roared at a few doctors wearing white robes.His name was Edgar Kane, Watson’s younger brother and the vice president of the Kane Enterprise. He shared a close relationship with his brother. When he heard about his brother’s sudden illness, he immediately rushed to the hospital with his wife and kids.“Mr. Kane, Mr. Crowe has just returned from visiting his grandchildren abroad and is still recovering from jetlag at home. We’ve alr

Oliver didn’t know how cruel this person in front of him could be, but George did.Seeing Beefy Bob grab his son and walk toward the window, George immediately reached out his hand and shouted, “Stop, stop now. Let my son go. I’ll treat him.”Beefy Bob paused for a couple of seconds, but when he didn’t hear any new instructions from Isaac, he lifted Oliver and threw him out the window.There was a loud crash.“Ah…” Oliver screamed in terror as he fell from the broken window.George shouted for his son, running to the window. When he saw that Oliver had landed in a bed of flowers below, his knees crumpled, and he fell to the floor.He raised his finger at Isaac with a terrifying expression on his face. Gritting his teeth, he said, “You animals, I’ll…”“If you don’t treat him now, I’ll go to your house. As you know, I can get quite cruel to someone who doesn’t listen to my words. The next Crowe family member to fall might not fall from the third floor, but the 13th or even the 30t
