In the blink of an eye, Xayne took down the pirates who wielded guns. They didn't even have time to react before they were riddled with bullets, falling into pools of their own blood.The remaining pirates with machetes instantly dropped their weapons. They knelt on the ground and clutched their heads. The sudden change left everyone stunned.Xayne swiftly collected all the pirates’ weapons and tossed them to the yacht's captain and the others. Then, he said, "Stay here. Someone will come to assist you shortly."With that, Xayne turned and charged toward the cabin. Inside, Bradley and Sean were smirking, awaiting the outcome outside."Hahaha! Did you hear that, Mr. Sean? There's definitely a fight going on outside!" Bradley sneered. "In no time, Serena will undoubtedly be brought in. You can then enjoy her right here."Sean’s face flushed. He could barely contain his excitement at the thought of having a beauty like Serena soon.Suddenly, an icy, death-like voice echoed from the

In the bustling Venzor port at noon, a large luxury cruise ship was slowly docking. This private yacht was owned by the Kleenings and adorned with a big, red "Kleening" logo on its hull.At the forefront of the deck, a man dressed in a white suit gazed at the modern skyscrapers in the distance. His eyes revealed a faint gleam of determination. This man was none other than Sean, the third son of the Kleening family, who had been on the yacht two days ago.After two days, the icy temperament emanating from him had become more apparent. His eyes were glowering, containing a simmering anger."I'm back, and this time, I will make you pay, Xayne," Sean uttered. His tone was calm, but his words exuded a palpable killing intent.Behind him stood an older gentleman in a gray suit. He possessed white eyebrows and had a lean face and slightly squinted eyes. He appeared benevolent, but the aura surrounding him made him seem formidable."Mr. Sean, your father instructed you not to act reckless

Sitting inside the Swift Group meeting room was Serena dressed in a sleek, waist-cinched black dress. With delicate features and snow-white skin, she exuded a mature and irresistible charm.Seated across from Serena, Sean's gaze emitted an intense lust. He licked his lips, eyeing her from head to toe. He was determined to make this woman his this time.Important figures of the company sat on either side, including Tim and Sophia."Serena, do have a good discussion with Mr. Sean on cooperation. We'll step out for now." Tim stood up, signaling the others to leave along with him. Although reluctant, he thought that a potential collaboration with the Kleenings was crucial to the Swifts."Mr. Sean, why am I not aware that you're coming today?" Serena asked as she sipped her coffee.Serena disliked the man across from her. She had noticed his lustful gaze. Though he was the heir of the Kleenings, he had no clue how to hide his desires.Serena would not have agreed to meet him if he wer

"Serena, Mr. Sean is doing this for the good of the Swifts. Think about it. In the future, the Swifts will be a major enterprise backed by the Kleenings. You'll become one of the top ten within the industry, and entering the business world of the capital will be just around the corner.“On top of that, you'll still be a manager. What's wrong with such a picture?" Bradley interjected with a fawning attitude.He hadn't expected Mr. Sean to bring this up so suddenly. It seemed like his next plan was much closer now."Impossible! The Swift Group will never accept acquisition. Moreover, this matter isn't within my control." Serena's tone went up, her expression full of anger."Then there's nothing to discuss." Sean, sitting in his seat, played with the ring on his finger, displaying an arrogant attitude. He stood up, placed his hands behind his back, and said to the gentleman standing nearby, "Mr. Joshua, take her."Joshua nodded slightly, agreeing to Sean's command.Serena felt an ov

Sean couldn't contain his anger, pointing at Xayne and shouting, "Mr. Joshua! Break his arms and legs now!"In Sean's eyes, Xayne was his archenemy. Without Xayne’s death, it would be hard to ease the hatred in his heart.However, Joshua didn't move. Instead, he whispered in Sean's ear, "Sir, this person is extraordinary. We shouldn't act rashly. We need to plan for the long term."Sean frowned even deeper upon hearing this but had no other option."Ms. Serena, I hope you think it over. You have three days to decide. When the time comes, I'll be back."With that harsh statement, Sean left the meeting room.Once Sean and his companions left the Swift Group, Serena finally relaxed from the immense pressure. She collapsed on the sofa, her body trembling.Xayne asked in concern, "You okay?""Water... Water..." she croaked.After drinking a large gulp of water, Serena started to feel better.…When Sean got back to the hotel, he smashed everything in his hotel room in frustration
