The Reign of Zane Gardner Chapter 176 - A Trail of Concern
Meanwhile, Zane continued to ride with impeccable focus and smooth execution, seemingly oblivious to the drama unfolding behind him. He remained unaware of James's predicament, fully concentrated on the challenges before him. Each obstacle was met with precision and confidence, reinforcing his skills and determination with every maneuver.As time passed, the finish line came into view for Zane. A smile spread across his face, fueled by the rush of nearing victory. His excitement was not for the prize itself but for the personal triumph it represented. Winning this challenge was about affirming his ability to adapt and succeed in new and demanding situations.As Zane approached the finish line, Lily spotted him from a distance and couldn't contain her excitement.

The Reign of Zane Gardner Chapter 177 - Unexpected Hero
Zane sensed the grave possibility that James might have ventured deeper into the hazardous alternate route and met with an accident. Preparing to follow the trail, he turned to Lily with a plan. "Lily, I'm going to go in and track him down," Zane said decisively. "I'll ask the guards to come and pick you up.""No, Zane, I'm coming with you," Lily responded firmly, her voice filled with determination."But, Lily, we don't know how extreme the path inside might be. Wouldn't it be better if you waited here?" Zane expressed his concern.Lily, aware of the alternate route's reputation yet having never traversed it herself, only knew of its challenges through tales from others. Despite this, her resolve was clear. "No, I'm going with you. I won't let you go in there alone," she insisted, her tone resolute.As Zane and Lily were about to enter the risky alternate path, the rumble of approaching motorcycles halted their plans. Five bikes approached; four were ridden by Lily's personal guar
The Reign of Zane Gardner Chapter 178 - Unexpected Recovery
Zane was deeply immersed in his meditation, channeling the energy around him into his own body. This process required considerable focus and time.While Zane continued his meditative practice, the others waited anxiously, especially Clark. Observing Zane's unusual method, Clark couldn't help but whisper to himself, "Can he really heal someone? What kind of knowledge is he using? Who is he, really?"Despite his doubts, Clark couldn't hide his concern. He had known James's late father and James himself for many years. Their long-standing relationship had fostered a deep emotional bond, amplifying Clark's hope that no further harm would come to James.Zane focused on the most life-threatening of James's injuries—a previously undetected internal bleeding in his abdomen that Clark had initially missed. Placing both hands in front of his chest, Zane then gently laid them on James's stomach, trying to stem the flow of blood within.Channeling all his energy, Zane concentrated on promoti
The Reign of Zane Gardner Chapter 179 - Gratitude and Grace
As Zane administered his unique form of treatment, James's consciousness ebbed, leaving him only vaguely aware of the events unfolding around him."Mr. Gardner, has James recovered? Did it really work?" Clark asked, his voice laced with hope yet fraught with concern.Zane responded with a gentle smile and a nod, his demeanor calm and reassuring. "Yes, Mr. Clark. It worked," he confirmed.Approaching James, Zane scrutinized his condition closely. Indeed, it appeared that the injuries had been effectively managed. "However," Zane continued, his tone becoming slightly more serious, "regarding Mr. James’s abdomen, although the bleeding has stopped, the area still requires restoration. Mr. James will need to be cautious with his movements."This update brought a mix of relief and caution to Clark. Realizing the effectiveness of Zane's treatment and reflecting on his previous aggression, Clark was filled with remorse. He repeatedly bowed his head in a gesture of apology and gratitude, s

"Is there a special event happening at Scott Company?" Zane muttered to himself, pondering the possibility.Zane caught fragments of discussions about a concert that was to be held in Sunhaven.

As the late afternoon slowly turned to dusk, the atmosphere around the island was calm and peaceful. The blue ocean reflected the setting sun as it dipped below the horizon. Guests were enjoying themselves, chatting and laughing in various corners of the island. However, at the edge of the dock, Zane stood alone, his eyes fixed on the horizon, savoring a rare moment of solitude."Zane," a soft voice called out behind him.Zane turned and smiled as he saw Claire approaching. "Claire, come join me," he invited.She carried two slender glasses filled with a bright red drink. Her steps were graceful, her smile gentle, as she handed one glass to Zane. "This is for you," she said softly."Thank you, Claire," Zane replied, accepting the glass.Claire looked at him curiously. "So, what are you thinking about, standing here all by yourself?" she asked, glancing at Zane’s face, which seemed more serene than usual.Zane turned his gaze back to the sea and smiled softly.

Zane stood facing Morano at a close distance. Zane remained calm, while Morano wore a dismissive expression."So, are you sure you want to face me alone, young man? Hahaha."He continued, "I’m not even sure if your grandfather could, let alone you."Without warning, Zane darted forward, his body becoming a blur that was hard for the naked eye to follow. His teleportation allowed him to move at lightning speed, appearing beside Morano and delivering a powerful punch. "Today, I will tear down the empire you’ve built. In the name of my grandfather, I will destroy you."Morano managed to dodge the first attack, but Zane was already behind him in an instant, kicking him hard in the back. Morano staggered but quickly retaliated."Hahaha, young man, you’re truly naive. I will show you who I really am."Their duel grew more intense. Every time Zane disappeared and reappeared, he landed one or two hits. But Morano, with his extraordinary power, began to match Zane's attacks.Punch after pun

Morano moved his face slightly and signaled for his two men to leave. They cautiously exited the room. Morano, who had been sitting in a luxurious swivel chair behind his desk, now walked towards Zane. They were face to face. Alessandra remained seated calmly on the sofa, observing Zane.She wasn't surprised by Zane's ability to teleport, as she had often heard stories about John Clark from her father, Morano. So, she wasn't shocked, but she hadn’t expected Zane to possess the same ability.Zane locked eyes with Morano and firmly said, "Don’t ever say that again. It’s disgusting."“Hahaha, Zane Gardner, I don’t know what John told you. But, yes, you two were pretty close. I was hurt—it felt like unrequited love, hahaha.”“Stop your nonsense.”“Wow, you’re braver than John, huh? He should’ve learned more from you, hahaha.”Zane remained where he stood. "I don't care about anything you're saying."“So, why are you here? Did your grandfather send you to surrender? Has he finally admit

Chapter 293 - Caught in the Spotlight
Zane stood on top of a building across from the FBI office. He had successfully completed his first mission, and to his surprise, it had been easier than expected. Maretti, Harris, and Dominic lay bound, their hands and feet tied, though their mouths were left free. The flashes from the cameras of journalists bombarded them. "Stop it! You fools!" Harris shouted, demanding the reporters stop taking pictures and recording. "Zane Gardner! This is all Zane Gardner's doing! You're idiots; you should be after him, not gathered here. We are the victims!" Maretti yelled. But their cries fell on deaf ears, as the journalists ignored them and broadcasted everything live on TV and the internet. The headline read: "The Biggest Scandal of the Century: Elite Businessmen Exposed as World Mafia Leaders!" Everyone flooded the comment sections. "What is this? What have they done?"

After Zane successfully subdued the three leaders of The Crimson, he put on his advanced glasses, designed for enhanced vision. "Good job, Alfred, I can see everything clearly," he said, speaking into his earpiece. At that moment, Zane could see the busy city and a convoy of black cars. It was obvious that they belonged to Morano’s men. "Yes, Master. Morano’s forces will arrive soon. It’s best if you move quickly," Alfred replied from a rooftop.The sudden cut of the CCTV feed had already made Morano suspicious, so he ordered his men to head to the location where Maretti and Harris were.

The fake Zane quickly intercepted him, and the two became locked in a fight.While the fake Zane was busy with Dominic, Harris tried to help free Maretti. He picked up a chair and aimed to strike Zane with it.But with measured reflexes and senses, Zane calmly lifted his right leg backward. It hit the chair that was thrown at him, causing it to rebound and hit Harris instead.Seeing Zane about to inject Maretti made her act. She tried to push Zane away, but her attempt was useless—Zane’s muscles were too strong.“I’m stronger than you think,” Zane said, cornering Maretti.Without wasting any more time, he grabbed Maretti’s hand with his other hand, the one not holding the syringe.Zane knew they had to act quickly. They were aware that their leader, Morano, wouldn’t sit idly by if something serious happened to his subordinates.At that moment
