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
Christian’s eyes and mouth widened. He never thought that Valerius could break through the attack, and the man remained in the same position without moving an inch.Before his astonishment could fade, he was struck hard in the stomach. It wasn’t just the stomach; Valerius also landed a punch on his face. As a result, Christian fell.Yang Lee, witnessing this, closed his eyes. His concerns had become a reality. If only Christian had been calmer, he wouldn’t have attacked recklessly like that.In the current state of heightened emotions, all Christian could think about was how to strike his opponent to defeat him, without considering and assessing the openings to attack.“I hope Christian can regain control!” mumbled Yang Lee.Yes, that was Yang Lee’s only hope, as he could see that Valerius was a formidable opponent, much stronger than Ravon.Valerius grinned at Christian’s fall, “Your strength is nothing. To me, your punch was just a mere trick.”Christian rose and stood tall again. H
The two individuals were the most panicked when they witnessed the horrifying scene before their eyes.Currently, dust was swirling due to the clashes that had taken place.In everyone’s mind there, Christian was considered the most unfortunate in this attack.It made sense, considering the fact that Valerius was a 5-star level S martial arts fighter, while Christian’s origin was unknown. Moreover, from a physical standpoint, Valerius’s fist was as large as Christian’s head, making it undoubtedly advantageous for Valerius.However, all of this was just theoretical on paper. The reality at this moment was different...The scattered dust was gradually clearing, allowing everyone there to see what was happening between Christian and Valerius.They were genuinely shocked and astonished when they saw Christian still standing firmly, while Valerius lay on the ground with a broken hand. His arm bone had dislocated from the elbow joint and tore through the skin.It was a horrifying sight.Val
Yang Lee’s final request was difficult for Phoenix to accept. If he only had to apologize here in front of Claudia, Phoenix wouldn’t mind. Perhaps he would even force Gideon to kneel and apologize to Claudia. However, apologizing in the media, that was something Phoenix couldn’t allow.The consideration, of course, was the tarnishing of the Young Family’s reputation. And his personal name would also be stained because the public would surely claim that he had failed in raising his child.“Master Yang Lee, if my son has to apologize now at Claudia’s feet, I will have him do it. But if Gideon has to apologize in the media, I can’t let him,” Phoenix said, shaking his head slowly.“The Young Family’s reputation will be tarnished if he does that. I implore you, Master Yang Lee, to understand,” Phoenix said in a soft tone. The man was careful to keep his tone in check with Yang Lee, not allowing it to rise.Yang Lee replied, “All the choices are yours. The conditions I give, if you fulfill
Since a few days ago, Christian had been eager to attend the exhibition of the world-renowned jewelry master, Master Arben. His desire to give Yvette an unparalleled, luxurious, and priceless gift was in jeopardy.“You should have told me yesterday; maybe I could have arranged it. Where should I look for it now?” Laura said, lifting her shoulders.In Christian’s mind, Darrell immediately came to his attention. So far, the man had always been reliable in times of need.However, when he wanted to contact Darrell, he hesitated. Christian felt embarrassed to be too dependent on him.“Fine, then. After this, just go straight home. I’ll go out for a bit,” Christian said.“Where are you going? Don’t tell me you’re planning to sneak into the exhibition to find available tickets?” Laura suggested.“Is there still a possibility? If there is, I’ll go there,” Christian replied.Laura scratched her head, realizing she had misunderstood.“Oh, I thought you were planning something bold. I just wante
After seeing Christian’s closeness with the children there, Laura stepped out of the car. Just as Laura exited, Anika also emerged from the orphanage.The middle-aged woman glanced at Laura before continuing her steps towards Christian.“Are you just arriving, Chris?” Anika asked, greeting.Christian immediately turned towards the source of the voice. His face lit up with joy upon seeing Anika looking healthy and fresh.“Yes, Mother, I just got here. Your face looks really fresh; it’s nice to see,” Christian said, then kissed the back of Anika’s hand.The middle-aged woman stroked Christian’s hair affectionately, saying, “Yes, I feel healthier every day.”In addition to the medication she took, Anika’s excellent psychological state, witnessing Christian becoming a great and successful man, also contributed to her well-being. Moreover, the generous monthly financial support from Christian alleviated any financial strain, ensuring she could provide proper nourishment to the children und
A familiar voice of a man could be heard. The discordant sound emanated from...“Orion! Are you here too?” Christian exclaimed upon seeing his cousin Yvette’s figure there.Orion grinned. Then he said, “Of course, I’m here. This place is for conglomerates like my family. I should be the one asking you. What are you doing here? You don’t belong here, you know!”“Hmm... I just wanted to see how these conglomerate exhibitions are held. Well, you know, I’ve never been to a place like this. Unlike you, who is used to coming to places like this,” Christian responded, addressing Orion’s taunts.Laura frowned at Orion. She disliked him immensely, considering him an arrogant man.For the past few years working at De Delta company, Orion was a superior she despised.“It’s pointless for you to enter; there’s nothing you can afford here. It’s better for you to go home. Use your money to have catfish parcel for dinner rather than paying a hefty entrance fee or buying through scalpers,” Orion remar
