"You...you have no idea what we Maldonados are capable of," Omar continued, taking a deep breath. "I promise you'll regret this. No one has ever dared challenge the Maldonado family like this in Keklia Town. Not just you two, but Rosemary and her entire family will suffer...""You really are an idiot," Timothy sighed, shaking his head. He couldn't help but recall battlefield scenes where the Commander, alone with his battle sword, left a trail of bodies, turning the place into a hellish landscape.Such power was far beyond what a small family like the Maldonados could withstand. Truly, ignorance was bliss.Just then, Junior's phone rang. Seeing Rosemary's name, his breath caught.Guilt from his earlier harsh words towards her surged through him. Taking a deep breath, he answered softly, "Rosemary.""Where are you? Any news about Laurel?" Rosemary's anxious voice came through the line."Rosemary, don't worry. Laurel is safe now," Junior reassured her."You found Laurel?" Rosemary's voi

The Maldonado Manor sprawled at the foot of a picturesque mountain in the east of Keklia Town. Its vast grounds were nestled by water and surrounded by natural beauty. In Keklia Town, the Maldonado family reigned supreme; almost nothing was beyond their reach.Yet, the estate now lacked its usual bustling atmosphere. A heavy, oppressive aura hung over the entire grounds. In the plaza near its entrance, thousands of people stood in tight formation. Among them, nearly five hundred wore uniforms from the "Maldonado Martial Arts Club", each armed with cold weapons and displaying a tense, serious demeanor.Another hundred or so were clad in suits and sunglasses, their expressions cold and their waists bulging with concealed firearms. About three hundred others appeared more casual, many with tattoos and each wielding a machete.In addition, there were two more groups of about two hundred people each, all of them strong and imposing. These groups represented two other promi

"Archangel, is there some sort of misunderstanding here?" Nicolas took a few hesitant steps forward.No matter how arrogant Nicolas was, he wasn't foolish enough to underestimate the Darkmoon Legion. He knew well that if the Darkmoon decided to target the Maldonado family, it would only take them half an hour to turn the family to dust."May I ask, Archangel, who is this gentleman?" Nicolas pointed nervously at Junior."Commander, did they do this?" Archangel completely ignored Nicolas and turned to Junior."Yeah," Junior nodded slightly.Whoosh! At those words, a thousand uniformed soldiers drew their weapons in unison. "Kill!"The pressure in the estate intensified, thickening the oppressive atmosphere even more.Members of the Maldonado family felt their legs weaken, breaking into cold sweat and panic-stricken faces."I-I can't take it anymore!" one of the armed black-clad men shouted. "If I'm going to die, I'll go down fighting!"With

When Rosemary saw Laurel in Junior's arms, tears streamed uncontrollably down her face. She quickly took Laurel into her own arms.Wallace and Sylvie, along with Harley, were stunned when they saw Laurel.They hadn't expected Junior to actually bring her back!"Laurel, what happened? Wake up, don't scare Mommy!" Rosemary cried out as she saw Laurel unconscious."Even though Laurel has been saved, she's lost too much blood and is in a coma. I'll take her to Eastoria to find the best hospital and doctors for further treatment," Junior said."Th-thank you…" Rosemary managed to relax a bit and then carried Laurel to the sofa."Junior, who exactly took Laurel?" Harley asked him with respectful tone."Harley, shut up!" Sylvie shouted. "If you keep talking to him like that, I'll throw you out of this house!""Mom, don't shout so loudly!" Harley pouted."Nicolas Maldonado's granddaughter needed a heart transplant, and Laurel was a match. T

Berkshire Villa, nestled at the foot of a mountain in West Eastoria, was a place of convenience and beauty. The estate was bustling with activity and brimming with people.Ira Nelson lounged comfortably in a recliner, a fine cigar dangling from his lips. To his left sat a popular young model, softly massaging his thigh, while on his right, a tall, well-known Eastoria TV host was slicing fruit for him.As the second son of the head of Eastoria's most powerful family, Ira led a life of leisure, frequently hosting parties for his friends. As the alcohol flowed, the conversation often turned to the women around them."Eastoria's number one beauty is definitely Rosemary. She's the most stunning woman I've ever seen, bar none!" Ira said, savoring his glass of red wine and speaking as though he was hungry for Rosemary's body."Master Ira, sounds like you're planning to make a move? But Rosemary has been exiled to Keklia Town by the Jackson family. She won't be back in E
