Chapter 972 – A Shocking Realization
*****“Sir…” the Prime Minister began, his voice trembling nervously, “Sir Grandmaster…”Seeing him like this, Xavier’s entire demeanor sharpened, suddenly alert. 'What happened? Did something serious occur?'But then…“In case you were in the city three days ago, I would like to apologize,” the Prime Minister blurted out, his tone full of shame. “For failing to keep the city thoroughly protected… and allowing two A-rank fighters to turn everything upside down.”Xavier, “_”He blinked, momentarily taken aback.“What,” he asked slowly, staring at the man as though he had just confessed to burning down the continent, “are you talking about?”The old man hesitated again… apparently, his new hobby, and scratched his head awkwardly. “I mean the night three days ago… when it felt like the world was ending.”He sighed heavily, as though reliving the trauma.“Actually, the rest of the city thought a natural disaster had tried to occur that night. But…” He lowered his voice dramatica
Chapter 971 – Xavier’s Concern
*****Xavier was already contemplating the kind of punishment so deep that it would leave regret etched into the bones of the ones who dared enough to hurt his wife, for the next generations to come.He wanted them to understand… deeply and painfully that they had knowingly stepped across a line that no mortal or immortals should ever cross.And above all… he wanted to finish everything before Grace woke up.Because to Xavier, that was the real challenge. Not crushing his enemies… that part was easy.The challenge was doing it swiftly, silently, and cleanly… without letting Grace worry for even a heartbeat.The thought made Xavier sigh internally and lean back in the seat.His expression was unreadable, but his thoughts were a chaotic storm beneath the calm surface.‘I should just stick to the original plan for now,’ he told himself, exhaling slowly as his jaw tightened. ‘If the Harrisons can’t get this done…’His gaze sharpened, a cold light flashing through his eyes at the
Chapter 970 – The Prime Minister’s Anxiousness
*****“Call the two of them and tell them to meet us at the Harrisons’. All of us must do everything in our power to make the sir forgive our family.”Aldric didn’t argue after hearing his father’s command… he didn’t even blink.Instead, he immediately fished out his cell phone and, adopting the strict tone of an elder brother, called his two younger brothers.His voice was cold and absolute… no excuses, no questions, and no delays allowed.“Meet us at the Harrison residence. Immediately.”He didn’t entertain questions nor give explanations.Instead, the moment he issued the order, he ended the call, his hands trembling faintly before he shoved the phone back into his pocket and climbed into the SUV.…..Meanwhile… utterly and completely unaware that his brief encounter with the Prime Minister had sent shockwaves of pure terror, commotion, and a great misunderstanding back at the Prime Minister’s office, both Xavier and the elderly Prime Minister were inside a moving vehicle
Chapter 969 – The Blackwood Patriarch’s Decision
*****The old man’s fists clenched so hard that his knuckles turned bone-white, regret tearing through him ruthlessly, burning into his heart, his soul, and every corner of his being.Finally, he drew in a long, shaking breath, brimming with emotion.“I can only salvage this as best as I can,” he muttered under his breath, his voice ragged but resolute. This was not optimism… it was survival instinct.Slowly and heavily, as though every regret in his body weighed down his bones, he rose to his feet and looked at his son and granddaughter.“Since the only two people we know who are aware of the sir’s true identity are the Prime Minister and the Harrison old man… and since the Prime Minister is currently with the sir…” His voice dropped into something deep and grave, snapping Cassandra and Aldric out of their daze.“We have only one path left. We must go to the Harrison old man and beg... not request or negotiate, but beg him to connect us to the sir, so we can apologize and show
Chapter 968 – The Blackwood Patriarch’s Regret II
*****The Blackwoods' elderly Patriarch’s heartbeat thrashed frantically in his chest, a wild rhythm threatening to tear him apart… until suddenly…He froze, a flash of memory clicking in his mind.And with this, a jolt of realization shot through him so violently that he nearly jumped.‘What?’His eyes widened drastically, his pupils shrinking as a sharp memory surfaced… something from only two days ago.The day after the two A-rank fighters’ clash, whose shockwaves had nearly shattered half of Riverton City… the leaders of the top families had all gathered inside the city council hall.After the main discussion ended, the Revercrest Patriarch had raised an issue, openly questioning the Harrison Patriarch about their handling of Project Echelon.Before then, the Blackwood patriarch already had his own doubts… especially after he had learned that the company which Project Echelon was assigned to, was connected to Xavier… belonging specifically to his wife.That had made him w
Chapter 967 – The Blackwood Patriarch’s Regret
*****Still at the front of the Prime Minister’s office.Cassandra sat on the cold marble floor, her knees tucked in and her back slumped like someone whose entire world had been reduced to ashes.She didn’t merely look devastated… she looked ruined, the kind of ruined where people assume your mansion just exploded, your favorite dog ran away, and your ancestral home burned down all on the same morning.Her eyes were empty, glassy, and unfocused… the type of look that stabbed straight through anyone with a functioning heart.But of course, no one noticed.Why? Because her father stood not far away, trapped in his own emotional nightmare.The man looked like a statue someone forgot to finish carving… stiff, pale, and staring into nothing, his soul clearly having packed its bags and left the premises.In fact, if a fly were to land on his forehead right now, it would probably think he was the decorative ornament in front of the Prime Minister’s office.And then there was the el
