THE INSANE HUSBAND IS IRON WOLF COMMANDER CHAPTER 90
At a secluded private lounge near the Hayley estate, two of the city’s most powerful men sipped aged liquor and wore thin expressions.Head Lord Hayley swirled his drink and muttered, “So, we both bowed, and he didn’t even blink.”Head Lord Garvos chuckled. “He treated us like street performers trying to impress a god.”Hayley exhaled, leaning back. “You think he wants to take Texas City?”Garvos nodded slowly. “He doesn’t want it. But he could take it.”Hayley’s eyes narrowed. “But to become Commander—officially—he needs recognition from all major forces. The finance guilds, the commercial banks, the energy conglomerates… they won't hand power to someone just because he throws a punch.”Garvos smirked. “Then let them wait until he throws a building.”Hayley paused, tapping his glass. “What about Emma?”Garvos looked amused. “You still think your daughter stands a chance?”“She’s stubborn,” Hayley replied. “So is he. That’s a start.”Meanwhile, Jack Sullivan pulled into the driveway o
THE INSANE HUSBAND IS IRON WOLF COMMANDER CHAPTER 91
Jack Sullivan stepped through the gilded glass doors of the Grand Imperial Hotel with measured grace, his composed demeanor masking the calculations behind his eyes. The prestigious tasting event hummed with activity—pharmaceutical luminaries exchanged pleasantries in the outer hall, but Jack knew the inner chamber housed the true treasures.Ancient herbs. Spiritual roots. Medicinal pills valued beyond most fortunes.Jack navigated through the assembly with quiet purpose, acknowledging no one. His thoughts drifted inward as he moved.My previous life ended because I pursued power too hastily, he reflected, his gaze steady and focused. When Kafer struck me down, he destroyed more than my physical form. Now I have this second chance—to build methodically, with wisdom and patience.He subtly flexed his fingers, appreciating how energy circulated through his meridians with newfound clarity and precision.A body honed for combat. A soul tempered for greatness. No more shortcuts—only master
THE INSANE HUSBAND IS IRON WOLF COMMANDER CHAPTER 92
The Grand Imperial Hotel’s tasting event was in full swing, with waiters carrying trays of rare wine and whispers of billion-dollar deals floating through the air. In the inner hall, only the elites moved freely. Jack Sullivan wasn’t bothered. He wasn’t here for their approval.But the name they kept calling him?That was starting to grind.“Oh, look who it is,” sneered a familiar, shrill voice. “The insane’s son-in-law actually showed up.”Jack didn’t flinch. He didn’t need to look to know it was Ashley’s mother, decked out in enough fake jewels to outshine a chandelier. Her voice alone could curdle wine.“I’m honestly impressed,” she continued, sipping her overpriced drink. “I figured you’d be under a bridge somewhere. Or maybe barking for food.”Jack glanced at her calmly. “You sound bitter. Let me guess—another investment failed?”She scoffed. “You’re the failure, Jack. Everyone knows it. Married the village lunatic and still walking around pretending you matter.”Village lunatic,

The moment Jasper Steel opened his smug mouth again, Jack had already decided.“You’ve got a big mouth,” Jasper sneered. “One I’m going to cut into pieces after this event—”CRACK.Jack’s fist buried itself into Jasper’s stomach like a steel piston.The arrogant heir collapsed like a folding chair, gasping, knees buckling as he clutched his gut, eyes wide in pure disbelief.“Guess your mouth couldn’t protect your stomach,” Jack muttered.People nearby froze. Wine glasses trembled. Even the violinist in the corner stopped mid-string.Ashley covered her mouth. “Oh my god, Jack!”Jasper wheezed. “Y-You… you hit me—!”Jack dusted off his knuckles. “You asked for barking. I gave you a bite.”Jasper tried to stand but stumbled, face pale with fury. “You’ll regret this. My father—”“Can’t fight your battles,” Jack interrupted coolly. “Send him too if he wants to lie next to you in a hospital bed.”Ashley grabbed Jasper’s arm, torn between helping him and just vanishing.“I told you not to pr

As the elevator doors opened to the underground floor of the Grand Imperial Hotel, Jack Sullivan stepped out with Ashley at his side. The atmosphere shifted immediately, the air thick with power and influence. The room was filled with the most elite of Texas City’s businessmen, politicians, and prominent martial artists, all gathered to discuss rare herbs and spiritual treasures.But as soon as they entered, the crowd’s attention was immediately drawn to them.Jack’s reputation had preceded him, and it was like the silence in the room swallowed them whole. Ashley was still taking it all in, her eyes wide as she glanced around. There was no denying it: the heavyweights were here.But then, a loud, booming voice cut through the silence.“Mr. Jack!”Jack didn’t flinch. He didn’t even acknowledge the man immediately. But when Big Tom, the owner of Stardust Nightclub, a notorious figure with muscles like a bouncer and a reputation that scared even the toughest in Texas, approached, the res

Ashley could feel her blood boil, but Jack was unbothered. He didn’t even acknowledge Jasper’s presence for a moment.Jasper laughed bitterly. “What? Too busy staring at the herb tables? Don’t worry. I’m sure you’ll fit right in.”Ashley’s hands clenched. “Jasper, stop it.”Jack didn’t even look at him. “You’ve got a lot of nerve. I’ve seen more substance in a fast-food burger.”Jasper’s face twisted with fury. “You think this is funny, huh? Just because you’re playing at the grown-up table doesn’t mean you belong here.”Ashley stepped in, trying to calm things down. “Jasper, please. Can we just leave it? I—”“No,” Jack interrupted. “Jasper’s too busy barking to realize he’s on the wrong side of the fence. You want to pretend like you belong? Try not embarrassing yourself in front of real people for a change.”Jasper’s lips curled in an angry sneer. “I’m not the one making a fool of myself. You’ll never be more than the insane’s son-in-law in their eyes, Jack. You’re just a joke in a
THE INSANE HUSBAND IS IRON WOLF COMMANDER CHAPTER 96
Jessica’s gaze shifted to the room below, eyes flicking from one group of important figures to another. “He’s not even looking at them… but the real play here isn’t the herbs. It’s the people. You saw the five board members of the top medicine companies. And of course, there’s President Inker. He’s the one we need to impress.”Charlotte’s smirk didn’t fade. “Exactly. Those five board members hold the future of medicine in Texas City. Inker knows it. If I play my cards right, I’ll have them eating out of the palm of my hand. Jack can sit in his corner and brood. He won’t even notice.”Jessica raised an eyebrow. “And what about the other company owners? Don’t you think they’ll be… upset when you buy everything?”Charlotte laughed softly, almost mockingly. “Upset? They’ll be lucky if I let them even have a seat at the table when I’m done. They won’t challenge me. Not with my influence.”Jessica nodded but still seemed uncertain. “You think Jack will just sit back and watch while you wrec
THE INSANE HUSBAND IS IRON WOLF COMMANDER CHAPTER 97
Jessica leaned against the bar, still amused. “Seems like a pretty good show. He’s holding a lot of the cards tonight.”Frank’s eyes narrowed, irritation clear. “I’ve built an empire on traditional medicine, Jessica. He’s just a glorified plant hunter.”Meanwhile, Garrett wasn’t paying attention to Rolex’s complaints. He was more focused on the variety of herbs being displayed before him—his fingers tracing over them with an almost reverent touch. It was obvious that the Evergreen region’s rich plant life gave him an upper hand. And he knew it.At that moment, Dr. Jason Steel entered the room, his presence commanding immediate attention. His expression was grim, but his eyes gleamed with a clear, almost dangerous intent. His reputation as a renowned conventional medicine practitioner had been under siege since Frank Rolex’s innovative treatments started gaining popularity. And now? It looked like he was here to strike back.Dr. Steel walked up to Garrett, a smile playing on his lips b

The late afternoon sun cast golden streaks across the marble floor of Jack Sullivan’s villa. The air was peaceful, laced with the faint aroma of aged Bordeaux wine, and the still ripple of the pool reflected serenity.David Sun leaned back on a lounger, wine glass in hand. “Jack, I’m telling you, you need to let me design a wine cellar here. This place deserves it.”Jack smirked slightly. “You just want to make sure I drink your overpriced imports.”Before David could respond, a click echoed from inside the house.Then another.Jack’s eyes narrowed slightly. The sound wasn’t from the front gate.“Did you invite someone else?” David asked, sitting upright.“No,” Jack replied, already rising from his chair. His bare feet padded quietly across the polished stone as he approached the sliding glass door.A shadow crossed the interior hallway.Then, without warning, a man casually stepped into the courtyard.He was young—late twenties maybe—with slicked-back hair, a smirk that screamed enti
CHAPTER 143
Inside the Shaw family estate, the atmosphere was quieter than usual.Charlotte Shaw sat stiffly on the antique leather chair, fingers laced tightly in her lap. Across from her, Richard Shaw poured himself a cup of tea, moving with deliberate grace.“You’ll apologize,” he said calmly.Charlotte’s brows furrowed. “I already said I regret what happened.”Richard looked at her over the rim of his cup. “Regret is not apology.”“I just…” she hesitated, then admitted, “I don’t want you to be the one to do it.”He set the cup down with a soft clink. “Then you shouldn’t have needed me to.”The silence between them was heavy, but not cruel.“I will personally represent the Shaw family at the Harvest Festival in Eastridge City,” he continued. “Our presence is expected. Our humility is required.”Charlotte looked away. Her pride bruised, her voice small.“I never thought it would come to this.”Richard leaned back. “That’s because you never thought he was more than a shadow. Now you know better.
CHAPTER 142
“He’s the eldest son of the Eastern Sullivan family.”She blinked. “The who?”Richard closed the file slowly. “The Sullivan family. East-coast monarchs of power, both legitimate and underground. Their name is whispered in federal halls and boardrooms alike.”Charlotte scoffed. “The Eastern Sullivans? I’ve heard of them, but they don’t compare to the state capital families. They’re not even on the same ladder.”Richard’s jaw tightened. “That’s where you’re wrong. You think we’re playing a local game? Jack Sullivan is walking across a global board.”Charlotte frowned, but her grandfather continued, his tone deepening.“His third uncle, Nathan Sullivan, is the one who built the underground empire in Carson City—an empire that even federal agents avoid confronting directly. Do you know who handles most of the private security logistics in five states? The Sullivan family.”She swallowed, unease creeping in.“And his mother,” Richard added, “is Margaret Williamson.”Charlotte blinked. “Tha
CHAPTER 141
Inside the deepest chamber of the Nine Scorpion Cave, the air pulsed with heat and pressure. A faint green glow radiated from Jack Sullivan’s body as he sat cross-legged, bare-chested, surrounded by the crushed remains of venomous scorpion cores. His breathing was slow, deliberate, and deep.For the last three days, Jack hadn’t moved. Not even once.The Scorpion Essence, distilled from the Emperor Scorpion’s body and the most potent venom sacs, now coursed through his veins. It burned, reshaped, and empowered.His skin glistened with sweat, but under it, something more terrifying was forming.Scorpion strength…His fingers twitched, now strong enough to crack steel with a flick. His back was lined with corded muscle, but it wasn’t brute strength alone—it was a precision power, venomous and fast.If I’d had this power during the Robert fight, Jack thought, I could’ve shattered his defenses in one strike. He wouldn’t have walked away.His chest rose slowly.This changes everything.Outs
CHAPTER 140
On a remote island far from the chaos of cities and scorpion-infested caves, an old man bent low over a patch of rocky soil. With slow, deliberate motions, he pulled up weeds that didn’t belong. His tattered shirt clung to his wiry frame, but a small swallow emblem stitched on the chest shimmered faintly in the sun.Victor Yates—once feared across nations, now a humble farmer. Or so it appeared.A young man approached, hesitating as he stepped over the jagged path of coral and dirt.“Master Yates.”Victor didn’t look up. “You found more wild yam?”The young man’s throat tightened. “No, Master… it’s about James Leonard.”Victor’s hand paused mid-pull.“Well?” he said, not turning.“He’s… dead.”The silence that followed was heavier than the sea breeze.Victor continued weeding without a word. The soil trembled subtly under his fingers—a sign of internal energy shifting beneath the surface.“Who?” he finally asked.“Jack Sullivan.”Victor exhaled slowly. “That name again.”“He also kill
CHAPTER 139
James Leonard’s eyes narrowed, his body tense like a coiled spring.“You’ve made it this far, Sullivan,” he muttered, “but you won’t leave this mountain alive.”Jack rolled his shoulders, voice calm as ever. “Big words from a man who just fed his own ally to a scorpion.”With a roar, James lunged, his fists blurring with speed. The first punch hit Jack square in the chest—followed by three more in rapid succession.THUD. THUD. THUD.Jack didn’t even flinch.James froze mid-strike. “What…?”Jack looked down at his chest, brushed some dust from his coat. “You done?”James stepped back in disbelief. Those hits could crush concrete… but he didn’t even stagger.Is he human?Jack smirked. “Iron Body Technique. Guess your master didn’t teach you that.”James growled and went in again, this time throwing everything—knees, elbows, fists, spinning kicks. The ground cracked beneath him, and shockwaves rippled out.Still, Jack barely moved.Then came Jack’s turn.He stepped in, faster than lightn
CHAPTER 138
“I’m not here for The Ghost,” James Leonard said coldly. “Frankly, I didn’t like him much. Arrogant, sloppy… too obsessed with making a name.”Jack raised an eyebrow. “Then why come for me?”James cracked his neck. “Because he was still my master’s student. Victor Yates trained him. His death reflects on the Yates lineage.”He took another step closer, killing intent radiating off him like heat.“I’m not here to mourn a brother. I’m here to defend my master’s honor. And that means killing you, Jack Sullivan.”Ron Taylor’s throat bobbed. He really means to fight Jack… this is bad.Behind them, the Emperor Scorpion loomed, its stinger dripping, poised over Uncle Frank, who was barely holding on.“J-James…” Frank rasped, coughing blood. “Help… me…”James turned to him slowly, lips curling into something cruel.“You? Help you?” He chuckled, then raised his leg.Before anyone could react—BAM!James kicked Uncle Frank like trash, launching him straight toward the scorpion’s gaping pincers.
CHAPTER 137
A deep hiss echoed from the cave’s maw, darker and heavier than before.Then it appeared.An Emperor Scorpion.Jet-black, armored like obsidian, the monstrous creature scuttled out from the darkness. Its pincers were thick as tree trunks, and its tail arched high—dripping with venom that shimmered like green fire.Uncle Frank tried to rise.Too late.CRACK!The Emperor’s stinger struck him dead center in the chest."AAAAHHH!" Uncle Frank screamed—his first scream in decades.Charlotte’s face turned ghost-white. “Uncle Frank!”Blood spilled from his mouth as his body convulsed, thrown backward like a ragdoll. The entire battlefield froze—everyone had heard of the Emperor, but few had ever seen it. And no one expected that sound from a man like Frank.“Help… Master… James…” Uncle Frank rasped.That name rang like a thunderclap.From the group of supposed bodyguards, one man stepped forward.He was tall, sharp-eyed, and dressed plainly, blending in with the security team—until now.In a
CHAPTER 136
The air turned heavy.A low, grinding rumble echoed from deep inside Nine Scorpion Cave.BOOM.A sharp vibration ran through the ground. Pebbles trembled. The trees swayed unnaturally.Jack Sullivan turned his head slowly toward the cave entrance.“They’re awake,” he said simply.Nie Mitchell’s face drained of color. “T-That sound… I’ve heard it before.” He staggered back a step. “Oh no… the nest is disturbed. They’re coming!”Before anyone could react, Charlotte Shaw snapped her fingers.“Uncle Frank!” she barked. “Take the vanguard. Clear it before they spread!”Uncle Frank nodded. “Yes, Miss!”He gathered a dozen armored men and dashed forward, spear in hand, moving like a man half his age.Ashley stepped closer to Jack. “What’s inside that cave?”“Poison,” Jack said. “And stupidity.”She blinked. “What?”Jack exhaled. “You’ll see.”From the mouth of the cave came a horrifying sound—a clicking, hissing flood of chaos.And then they appeared.Over 300 venomous scorpions, each rangin
