The Lincoln family has Lord Lincoln as patriarch, but due to his old age, he was no longer in charge of most things, with his first son, Aston’s father, Nicholas, taking charge instead.Currently, Nicholas was in his office in a meeting with a few clients when his assistant suddenly rushed in, a lady who went by the name Jane.“Sir, there's an issue.”Nicholas quickly scolded her. “Are you out of your mind?... Can't you see that I'm in an important meeting?... It seems you no longer like your job!”“I'm sorry, sir, but the situation is really serious. I just received a call from the butler at home, he says someone assaulted the young master and dropped him in the middle of the road for everyone to see. The video is currently trending on the Internet.”“What?” Nicholas could hardly believe his ears but that was hardly the end of it as the assistant further reported.“Now, he's in the hospital in a critical condition.”“What!?” Nicholas jumped to his feet at the shocking news. “Who assa

Nicholas frowned as he realized that his guards were struggling to take down William which further worsened his worries.If he couldn't defeat William with money, logic, or force, then how exactly was he supposed to get out of this situation unscathed?Meanwhile, the guards continued to struggle against the killing intent sent out by William, hoping to land at least one severe blow on him.William wasn't about to let that happen as he seized the weapons of Nicholas' men before proceeding to knock them out with hardly any difficulty.This sight was enough to instill fear in Nicholas as he trembled at the sight of his men falling against William's unmatched strength.“Do not test my patience, Nicholas. I have very little of it.” William warned in a domineering manner as he remained seated, staring at Nicholas who didn't dare to breathe wrongly.Gulping nervously, he intoned while struggling to stop the urge to pee himself due to how frightened he was. “You are one of them.”Nicholas had

“So this is what people like Zara Khan enjoy. Truly amazing.” Charles muttered only to pause as he saw what was showing on the television.“Breaking news, a surprise announcement from Avalon's one and only, William Belmont.”Charles didn't know why, but he had a feeling something bad was about to happen, and his gut didn't fail him as a moment later, William appeared on the screen, flanked by two guards with several bundles of dollar bills placed on the table before him.“Hello everyone, my name is William Belmont. This broadcast, in truth, is only meant for one person, but I decided to send it to everyone in this city. Mister Charles, it is an honor to meet you once again. I had no idea that you would return, not as a friend, but as a foe. It is rather interesting that you'd take such a decision after our discussion the last time.”Charles tensed as he realized that William knew he was in the city.“It wasn't too long ago that I left the home of a broken family making a promise to ta

No one had recognized William when he arrived so they didn't even bother to speak up for him, quickly isolating him from the rest of those gathered. Considering he was a newbie, they understood why the Wilsons were acting this way.It was to make a statement to ensure William would be careful when around them in the future which was how the Wilson family liked it.They enjoyed being feared because then no one would dare to go against them else they'd end up suffering in their hands.Meanwhile, William remained silent as he watched Oliver bellow like a bull without reasoning.Finally, Oliver shifted his attention to him. “You over there, are you the owner of this piece of trash?”“Indeed, I am, and mind you, that was a vintage car you just crushed.” William calmly remarked, hardly bothered by the car damage.He could just as easily get it fixed, but he smelled an attack from Oliver, and the worst thing he could do now would be to turn away.“Oh, a vintage you say?... No wonder you dar

“You must be Zero, I've heard a lot about you.” The young man to approach was the young master of the Morgan family which was also comparable to the Wilson family in the underworld business.After hearing about William, he wished to do what the Wilsons were too scared to do and teach William a lesson so he would understand that he wasn't special while also causing the Wilson's to lose face for being wary of a nobody. “And you are?” William inquired, not privy to the man's identity.“Frank Morgan.” “I see.”“I'm quite curious to know what you did that would cause the Wilson family to leave you be. I mean, you don't look too special to me.”“If you say so.” William calmly intoned. “Now if you'll excuse me, I am not in the mood for a conversation.”William tried to leave only for Frank to block his path with a raised hand.Taking a deep breath, William glanced at him with the latter meeting his gaze with a condescending look on his face.“I'm still talking to you.” “You don't want to
