Sophia trembled upon hearing her father’s words. She nervously asked, “What are you suggesting, Dad?”

Tim said lowly, “Did you watch the news just now? If we scare Serena a little or injure her child, they’ll have to stay in the hospital longer. Then, we’ll have full control over the party. I believe even Chuck can’t do anything about it.”

Tim smirked at the end. He had just thought of this scheme.

‘It’s seamless and will leave no trace.’

Sophia lit up with delight. “That’s a perfect plan! With that, the association will likely transfer the membership qualification to us. After all, Serena is injured and can’t sign the agreement. We only need to apply slight pressure on that little bitch.

“We'll coax her into giving up the qualification. Then everything will be easy.” The more Sophia spoke, the brighter her smile became.

Tim nodded in approval. "That's right, honey. I'll leave it to you. Remember, leave no traces. Find someone who's discreet and efficient. Don't hire those only

    Sophia nodded. “It's done.”She sent Serena and Coco’s photos to Marco and their hospital address and ward number.On the other side, Marco noticed his phone lighting up on the table. He glanced at it and saw a seventy-five thousand dollar deposit. Marco laughed heartily and opened the message. After reading it, he clapped to signal everyone in the private room to stop.He exclaimed, “Brethren, we have a job! Let’s finish our drinks and hit the road!”Half an hour later, Marco and his dozen men arrived in several sleek cars at the hospital. However, they saw an overwhelming number of patrol officers as they approached."Marco, what's going on? Why are there so many cops around?" One of his underlings asked anxiously.Marco smacked his head and scolded, "Why are you panicking, moron?! We haven't done anything wrong. Follow me."He led his crew straight into the hospital. He followed Sophia’s provided information and went up to the third floor. The group found two officers station

    Marco was shocked and panicked when he saw the uniformed patrol officers. His legs trembled as he knelt. “Uh, sorry, sirs. Wrong room. If we cross paths again, well, no, I hope we don’t. Ever.”Marco repeatedly bowed as he stood up and backed away. However, two officers had already blocked the exit behind him."Get in!" One of the officers bellowed, kicking Marco's backside. The other officers threw Marco’s men into the ward and made them kneel.Marco was no longer as arrogant as he was when he kicked open the door. “I-I’m sorry, gentlemen! I-I genuinely messed up and took a wrong turn. Please, spare me.”His henchmen were also in tears as Harold rose from the sofa with a stern expression. Harold glared at Marco and his men, thundering, “Marco! What are you doing here?!”Marco flinched and looked at the towering figure before him.'My God! Isn't that Chief Harold? He's here too?'The next second, he banged his head against the floor tiles, wailing, "Chief Harold, I messed up. I

    Marco and his men were dumbfounded.‘Chief Harold treated that man with such respect. Didn’t Sophia say he’s just a worthless in-law? What’s going on?’Xayne glared at Marco, sending shivers down his spine. The latter quickly looked away and trembled all over. Xayne calmly said, “Deal with them as you see fit.”Soon after, he got up and left. He exuded a menacing aura as soon as he stepped out of the ward.‘You’re heartless, Sophia. Since you tried to harm Serena, you can’t blame me for retaliating.’Xayne hailed a cab and headed straight to the Swift Group. When he arrived, he strode past the front desk toward the company’s vice president’s office. Meanwhile, the curious employees trailed behind him.Xayne kicked Sophia’s office door open.Bam!The door shattered.Sophia was sweet-talking Ethan over the phone. She was startled when she saw Xayne standing at the doorway. Terrified, she stumbled back several steps, almost tripping over herself. She was livid. “Have you lost you

    Sophia hung up and glared back at Xayne. “It’s over for you now! How dare you threaten me? I haven’t settled the score with you, yet you dare to come here and kick down my door? I’ll break your legs!”Xayne remained composed as he stood his ground with his hands in his pockets. He said, “Marco has been apprehended. What can you accomplish by yelling at me? Your actions will warrant your demise now.”Sophia shuddered at Xayne's words.‘Marco got arrested? Isn’t he supposed to teach Serena and Coco a lesson? How useless! He took my money and got caught!’Sophia’s anger grew, but she denied Xayne’s claims, “I don’t know what you’re talking about. Who’s this Marco person? I only know that you’ve barged in here and threatened me.”Xayne remained indifferent. He did not bother explaining anything to a woman like her. Suddenly, hurried footsteps approached from outside. A few burly guards with riot batons pushed through the crowd and entered the office.The leading security chief adjust

    Frances stated, "Don't ask what you shouldn't and cooperate." She tried to restrain Xayne, but he subtly shifted his stance. “Ms. Frances, please have some self-respect. I haven’t committed any crimes, and you don’t have the authority to take me in.”Frances grabbed the air when Xayne moved. She frowned and said, “Who says you haven’t? I need your cooperation in investigating the hospital incident. I only want to ask you a couple of questions. What’s wrong? Are you hiding something?”Xayne frowned in resignation. He knew she was not a bad person. She was just hot-headed and stubborn, perhaps interested in his background."Sorry, but my daughter is waiting for her cake. If you have any questions about the hospital, you can talk to Chief Harold," Xayne calmly stated, preparing to leave.However, his actions angered Frances. After all, she was a patrol officer, and Xayne seemed to dismiss her importance. She had thoroughly looked into his background and discovered he was the only li

    Tony, Violet, and Royce accompanied a middle-aged man and woman with a handsome young man. Judging by Tony and Violet’s nods, the trio were no ordinary people. The young man wore a seventy thousand dollar Patek Philippe watch.Meanwhile, the middle-aged man and woman wore expensive outfits. They exuded an air of arrogance.Xayne’s entrance caught their attention. The trio glared daggers at him, and the middle-aged woman assessed him as if he were beneath her. She asked, “Who’s this guy, Violet?”The middle-aged man glanced at Xayne but said nothing. The young man sat on the sofa behind him while looking at his phone. He raised an eyebrow and looked at Xayne disdainfully.Violet felt embarrassed as she introduced, “Charise, he’s Serena’s husband, Xayne.”Charise sneered, “So, he’s Serena’s husband. No wonder we heard rumors that she had married a good-for-nothing as soon as we arrived in town. We didn’t believe it at first. We thought, at worst, you would allow Serena to marry into

  • Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector   Chapter 365

    Since Xayne did not retort, Violet did not bother arguing. Instead, she turned to her elder sister and asked, “Charise, what brings you to town this time?”Violet was not keen on ingratiating herself, but Charise was blessed with good fortune. She had married into a good family, and her daughter found an excellent husband.Charise crossed her arms and spoke proudly, “Nothing much. My son-in-law’s new company is in this town, so we visited to check things out. Since you’re in Shalholm, we decided to visit you, too. We’re hosting a little family gathering tonight and would love to invite you all for a meal.”Her son-in-law, Chandler, was the third son of the Cann family from the provincial capital. While the Cann family was only a second-tier family in the city, they were better than the Swifts. Chandler graduated from Stanford University and held two master’s degrees at a young age.The Cann family invested five hundred grand to start a company for him in Shalholm, making him the ge

    It was seven in the evening when Xayne, the somewhat fragile Serena, and the wide-eyed Coco arrived at the Red Mansion. Serena and Coco were amazed by the scene before them. After all, they had never been to the Red mansion before.The redwood walls and floors were reminiscent of ancient palaces. The crimson-dressed hostesses at the entrance were tall and graceful with delicate features.Suddenly, a disdainful voice sounded, "Well, look who’s here. Quite bold of you."Xayne turned and saw Royce, Violet, and Tony approaching from the parking lot. They looked gloomy with mocking smirks.Violet scoffed and did not spare a pleasant word for Xayne. “A scum will always be a scum. Don’t blame me for not warning you about the embarrassment you’ll face. Keep your mouth shut, and just eat tonight. Understand?"Xayne remained composed, but Serena tugged at his clothes and whispered, "Xayne, please agree with my mom."Xayne nodded in agreement.Violet only entered the Red Mansion afterward.

    Dean's wild provocations quickly drew a crowd of onlookers.At that moment, a striking young woman stepped forward, removing her sunglasses as she made her way through the throng.The woman was dressed in an elegant black gown, the hemline revealing a pair of flawless, slender legs that caught everyone's attention. Her expression, however, was haughty, as though she looked down on everyone around her.She was Deanana Lovorka, the heiress of the Lovorka family conglomerate. While not exactly a household name, she was considered a minor socialite in the upper circles of Drakonix."Manager Dean, it's been a while!" Deanana greeted casually.As someone who frequently traveled abroad for business, Deanana was a familiar face at the airport and she had crossed paths with Dean on several occasions.But she was not here for a casual chat with Dean. It was far from it.She had come specifically to see Xayne.This was, after all, the legendary King of the North. Just six months ago, he w

    "Do you have any idea whose luggage this is?" Aava asked coldly with a sharp and commanding tone.She was on the verge of revealing her special credentials—something she rarely used unless absolutely necessary. Xayne had been her hero, someone she deeply admired. The ridicule from Miodrag moments earlier had already pushed her to the edge, and now even a low-level airport staffer dared to humiliate him."Of course, I knew. Xayne, the King of the North six months ago; now he's just a regular civilian," the staffer replied with icy indifference. The staffer smirked. "Miss, do you think Xayne is still the mighty King of the North? There's no war, the capital isn't under siege, and he's utterly useless now. Take my advice—someone young and beautiful like you should stay far away from trash like Xayne. Get closer to someone like Young Master Dongfang instead. It'll do wonders for your future!"Dean swaggered over, cigarette dangling from his mouth, hands clasped behind his back. His ex

    Upon hearing those words, both Xayne and Aava paused in surprise, then frowned in unison.The VIP lounge was clearly still operating as usual. Inside, over twenty people were relaxing—some reading newspapers and sipping coffee. There was no sign of any "closure" or "disinfection."It was obvious that this so-called announcement was deliberately targeting Xayne and Aava."Manager Li, isn't this going a bit too far? That's Xayne—formerly the King of the North. He has special privileges to use the VIP lounge. If this gets reported to higher-ups, we could all be in trouble…," whispered one of the airport staff, cautiously approaching Dean."Higher-ups? Haven't you heard? Young Master Lyuben already gave the order—anyone who sides with Xayne will see their entire family wiped out." Dean sneered, exhaling a cloud of smoke as he lit a cigarette."And even if the higher-ups find out, what can they do?" Dean added mockingly. "I'll admit, six months ago, I wouldn't have dared cross Xayne. B

    Miodrag's laughter quickly caught the attention of onlookers in the bustling terminal. But their gazes were fixed not on him but on Xayne.The "King of the North" was a name nearly everyone recognized, yet no one dared approach him. Lyuben's warning had spread far and wide: anyone who got close to Xayne would face annihilation."Miodrag! What gives you the right to mock Mr. Xayne? Just hours ago, he was fighting on the front lines for this country. And you? What have you done besides indulge yourself in luxury?" Aava snapped with a sharp and clear voice."Heh, I pay taxes, don't I? Doesn't spending money generate tax revenue? Without people like me keeping the economy alive, what would Xayne have eaten in the north? Dirt?" Miodrag smirked, his tone dripping with mockery. He sneered and continued, "If not for us rich kids throwing around millions in donations every day, Xayne wouldn't even have warm dirt to eat!""Damn it! The nerve of that guy!""What's so special about the East

    "Is it true that Xayne captured the so-called 'Lord of Light' alive?" Lyuben remained calm as he was playing a grand piano in the lounge."Indeed! Word is, the Lord of Light's master, Master Emin, was present as well. However, Xander also made an appearance. My analysis suggests it was Xander who forced Master Emin to retreat, while Xayne crippled the Lord of Light." An older man lowered his head respectfully as he spoke, his voice tinged with urgency."Oh? Defeating the Lord of Light… he must have had a trick up his sleeve. Was it some kind of tactic or setup?" Lyuben asked without betraying a hint of emotion."It's said that Xayne specializes in traps and ambushes. Otherwise, Hiram and his crew wouldn't have met their end in that mansion. Master Dongfang, you mustn't underestimate him!""Hmm?!" Lyuben's eyes shot open suddenly, piercing beams of icy resolve radiating toward the older man.The man immediately lowered his head further, not daring to meet the gaze of the young lead

    "Lowes, what are you panicking for?" Zoro's cold gaze locked onto Lowes.Even though Lowes was several generations younger than him, as the head of the Bullard family, he had the status to stand on equal footing with Zoro."I'm not panicking, I just don't want to see more white funeral banners hanging at the Bullard family estate. If Xayne comes back and chooses to settle the score, do you think any of us can handle it? You might not know this, but back when King Quidie rebelled, even Klink didn't dare lay a hand on him," Lowes replied, his voice strained but steady.He paused, taking a long, slow breath to calm himself. "Put it another way, if Xayne comes for us, even KB Kings Circle won't step in to save us. If that doesn't scare you, then I don't know what will!"The air in the room grew colder. Lowes glanced around at the faces of the other family heads, hoping to see reason in their eyes. But then came a sneer.Zoro let out a low, disdainful chuckle. "Even if Xayne didn't die

    "Xayne!" Zoro clenched his fists so tightly. If anyone had a grudge against Xayne, the Eastin family's hatred was no less than that of the Bullard family. Not to mention, Flamey had been killed by Xayne not long ago. This blood feud had to be settled.The Big Four weren't some weak, defenseless prey that Xayne could toy with as he pleased. For decades, the Big Four had controlled the heart of the Drakonia's economy. Every senator, governor, and political figure had to show them respect. But since Iver's death, the Big Four had lost their glow. People who once bowed their heads were now looking down on them. The root of all this was because of Xayne.That's why, after Flamey's death, the Eastin family had no choice but to call upon their master, a man who had been living in seclusion for decades. Every bit of information regarding Xayne's trip to Egenda, his plans, his contacts, and even his flight schedule had been deliberately fed to Lord of Light.They made it clear that the momen

    "In the end, his ambitions were never realized. When he attempted to merge all five Dragon's Hearts, he died. After his death, the Dragon's Hearts vanished without a trace. That's why the Light Order has always kept a close eye on Drakonia, especially on the methods Commander Zedd used to track down those Dragon's Hearts," Joe explained.Hearing this, Xayne was utterly stunned. He had never imagined that over a century ago, Commander Zedd had possessed five Dragon's Hearts. That would have been a time when Drakon Destiny was on the rise. However, because of the failed fusion, Commander Zedd lost not only his life but also Drakon Destiny's, which declined, leading to the humiliations and defeats that followed over the next century."So you're saying the Dragon's Hearts are tied to the fate of a nation?" Xayne asked, his shock evident."Absolutely. Based on our research, there's no doubt about it. The fate of Drakonia is linked to the Dragon's Hearts. Every time someone successfully f

    In the VIP lounge of the airport, Xayne and Aava were waiting for their flight. Not long after, a tall, broad-shouldered young man strode in. He scanned the room briefly before his eyes locked onto Xayne and Aava. Without hesitation, he walked straight toward them. "Mr. Xayne, I'm sorry for the wait. I was sent here by Yves."The young man sized up Xayne, his eyes flashing with surprise when he saw that Xayne was completely unharmed. Word had spread about Xayne's clash with Lord of Light, a confrontation that even drew out a Radiant Commander figure, Emin. Yet here Xayne was, perfectly fine. It was hard not to be impressed.As Yves's right-hand man, Joe Zhird knew better than to underestimate someone like Xayne. His respect was evident in his tone and demeanor. With his status as the top lieutenant of Black Ice Platform, even the heads of prominent families would approach him with courtesy. But right now, it was Joe who was showing deference to Xayne, and this caught Aava by surprise
