Every stir from behind heightened her trepidation and yearning, coupled with overwhelming shyness.Though three years married, this would be their first time.

The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 263: The Public Clash
He believed in Lawrence's capabilities, for though unfamiliar with Joseph Rogers' prowess, sans underhanded tactics, a direct duel favored not the challenger. The true crucible lay in the unmasking of their respective trump cards...Amidst the thunderous challenge, a towering silhouette ascended the arena. This figure, lean and sharp-eyed, regarded the familiar Lawrence with a sinister sneer. "I never imagined you would live to see this day of retribution.""Yet it has been five years. Such trivialities should have faded into the past, Mr. Lawrence. No need for this endless fixation." "If you desire reconciliation, we could jointly reign over Emerald City!"Lawrence's rage smoldered at the dismissive tone, murderous intent roiling within as he faced the reappearance of Joseph Rogers after half a decade's absence.

The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 264: You are 'King'!
Jason's gaze sharpened as the mocking voice's owner emerged from the shadows - a mysterious figure garbed in white, his demeanor radiating haughty contempt for all beneath his regal bearing."And you are?" Jason arched a brow, sensing the undisguised murderous intent directed solely towards him."Wayne Howard - commit that name to your nightmares, for it shall become your eternal tormentor. Truth be told, you have piqued my curiosity. But who could foresee your foolish trespass against those you ought never cross? Pity - your existence cannot be suffered to linger."Yet as his gaze fell upon the fractured jade pendant adorning Jason's neck, the white-robed figure's sneer froze, his countenance shifting as realization blossomed. "How did you come by that artifact?"After such frenzied efforts the previous night, to encounter it here by sheer happenstance - the universe's paths proved indeed inscrutable! An unmistakable match to the photograph, this was no mere coincidence."You refer
The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 265: A Throat Sealed by the Sword's Edge

Yet Joseph Rogers' evident inferiority drove his desperate offensive as furtive glances scanned the viewing platforms.Where was the signal from the venerable Mr. Howard?Today's spectacle served to bait ulterior players, luring Lawrence's ruinous resurgence that they might crush all adversaries underfoot.
