Emma hesitated in her response. She was worried that Zofia might misinterpret what she said, which could adversely affect Zofia’s relationship with Christian Demetri.“Why are you silent? Come on, tell me! Tell everything without covering up or exaggerating!” Zofia exclaimed with an impatient expression due to her overwhelming curiosity. She couldn’t help but be curious, as this concerned her parents.“Mr. Demetri got angry and decided to bankrupt Mr. Manuel and take over the entire Kowalska family,” explained Emma.Zofia furrowed her brow upon hearing this. She knew Christian was a strong and influential person. However, Zofia doubted whether Christian could bankrupt her family.“So, what happened next? Can Mr. Demetri really make my family go bankrupt?” asked Zofia. She attempted to move to lean against the bedhead, but due to the pain in her stomach, she refrained.Emma nodded. Then she said, “Mr. Demetri can do it in the blink of an eye. He said it at night, and by morning, the ci
Certainly, the news about Orion, who was Christian’s wife’s Yvette Delta’s cousin, was of great importance to Ambrose and Reginald along with their loyalists.Reginald could use Orion as someone who could provide accurate information and dangerous actions that could jeopardize Christian’s life.His personal secretary combined her thoughts. Then she said, “I’ve inquired about this to someone in New York. From the information obtained, it turns out Orion De Delta is the cousin of Yvette De Delta, who was recently revealed to be Christian Demetri’s wife.”Ambrose smiled broadly. This news truly made him happy.“All right then, thank you very much. I’ll inform you later after I discuss this matter with Uncle Reginald,” Ambrose said as he stood up.“Very well, Sir!” replied the secretary.Ambrose walked out of the room and headed to Reginald’s office to deliver this significant news.“Uncle, there’s something I need to tell you!” Ambrose exclaimed without permission and without knocking on
Darrell fell silent upon receiving that question from Diego. He, too, began to doubt the decision he had just made.However, Darrell couldn’t retract what he had said because, at the moment, the best course of action was to surprise Ravon and Gideon Young.After contemplating for a moment, Darrell said, “In that case, you need to control your emotions better. Only act if they engage physically. I’m giving you a chance to defend yourself and your troops.”“As for that matter, I understand. But should we discuss this issue with Mr. Demetri? What if he disagrees with our current actions?” Diego asked. His facial expression clearly revealed his fear that Christian would be greatly displeased with him.Darrell replied, “Currently, Mr. Demetri cannot be reached. He’s been going back and forth between Puncak and New York for several days; I don’t know what he’s up to, but it seems crucial for him. It’s related to his preparation to face Ravon.”Diego furrowed his brow, feeling perplexed. “Wh
Diego didn’t waste this opportunity to belittle Ravon in front of everyone.He stared at Ravon, smiling as if he were witnessing a joke.Diego, usually a serious man, now bore a slight resemblance to Christian. Perhaps he was imitating his big boss.“Why did you come here and want to meet me?” Ravon asked.“Do you want to talk here?” Diego inquired, looking around.“Taking you inside might make you comfortable and unwilling to leave. I’m closing registration for new members. So, just say what you want to say here!” Ravon replied.“Hahaha... alright, if that’s what you want!” Diego said, shrugging.After that, Diego returned to his serious demeanor. From his gaze, facial expressions to his tone of speech, everything became grave.“I came here to deliver an ultimatum from Darrell’s boss to you!” Diego declared.Ravon raised his eyebrows. Then he asked, “Deliver an ultimatum? About what?”“Our subordinates found many strange and inappropriate items in Octagon and its surroundings. You we
The time has come. One week felt very long for Claudia but remarkably short for Christian.Claudia immediately turned towards Christian and, on reflex, grabbed his hand, squeezing it.Christian understood Claudia’s anxiousness. He smiled and said, “Don’t worry. I can win this fight. Just relax.”Claudia took a deep breath. She was genuinely worried but couldn’t stop Christian. She nodded in agreement.“But, Mr. Demetri, can I join? If I’m there, maybe my anxiety will fade quickly,” Claudia requested.Darrell quickly responded, “I think it’s better for Claudia to stay here. I’m concerned, and her presence might make the situation less conducive.”Claudia shook her head, saying, “I promise, I’ll stay quiet and follow all your and Mr. Demetri’s instructions. I won’t disrupt the moment. Please, Mr. Darrell!”As Darrell was about to respond, Christian spoke, “Alright then. But you will be closely guarded by Darrell’s men. You must follow Darrell’s orders. If the situation becomes unfavorab
Gideon Young appeared very tense watching this fight. Because right now, his father is beside him to witness this fight as well.“Daddy didn’t know beforehand that Ravon would fight tonight. Why didn’t you tell Daddy?” Phoenix asked.Gideon shook his head with a hint of worry and said, “I-I don’t know either. But three days ago, he told me he would fight. I thought he had informed Daddy.”“No. He didn’t say anything while working,” Phoenix said.They both then focused on the Octagon to witness the upcoming fight.Christian is now ready. He starts positioning his feet in a solid stance as taught by Yang Lee.Seen from the more developed stance compared to before, it shows that he is applying what Yang Lee taught him well.“Why are you just standing there? Come on, advance!” challenged Ravon.Christian just smiled in response to Ravon’s challenge without moving at all.Seeing this, Ravon became furious. Now, he’s the one with the problem getting closer.“In that case, don’t blame me if
Phoenix stood up, eager to meet Darrell. However, just as he was about to take a step, a voice from Christian interrupted him with an announcement.He halted and redirected his gaze towards the Octagon.Christian was standing, holding the event microphone.“I’m here to declare that I challenge a coward with a dirty mind to fight me now!” Christian declared passionately.This was unexpected. Initially, Christian only wanted to announce that Gideon Young had harassed Claudia and ask him to apologize. But for some reason, he ended up challenging the young lad to a fight.“Gideon Young! I challenge you to fight in the Octagon to settle what you started,” Christian exclaimed loudly. “Up until now, I haven’t accepted the harassment you did to Claudia a week ago.”Boom!Christian’s words created a stir in the entire Young Octagon Devil Arena. Everyone began discussing Demetri’s mentioned harassment.Dissonant murmurs filled the air from some of the audience members.Phoenix immediately turne
Emotional is not Christian’s nature. However, at this moment, he finds it challenging to control his emotions.He swiftly launched his first attack upon seeing Gideon enter the Octagon. Disregarding the already damaged state of the Octagon, he leaped to strike Gideon.Seeing Christian coming at him, Gideon quickly exited the Octagon and closed its door, causing Christian to hit the door made of steel wire.“Whoa... calm down! I just entered, and you’re already attacking,” Gideon said, raising both hands and descending the Octagon stairs.“You scoundrel! Come forward! I won’t let an abuser live peacefully!” Christian exclaimed with a high-pitched voice.Gideon shook his head. Then he said, “How could I enter if you’re ready to attack as soon as I step in?”“So what? You don’t want to be hit by me? Well then, it’s simple. Just kneel at Claudia’s feet and apologize to her!” Christian said from atop the already damaged Octagon.What? This is crazy. A Young being asked to kneel before an o
