In terms of either influence or physical prowess, the Marlowe family couldn’t compare to the Supreme Pavilion or the Bulgart Industry.The Marlowes might dominate among the ten prestigious families, enjoying overwhelming advantage over their peers, but if they dared to clash with the Supreme General, they would be wiped out without hesitation. Everyone present knew it.Julian smirked coldly, clearly unfazed. “You’re right. The Supreme General reigns above all. Naturally, even the Marlowe family would never dare to offend him.”Then his tone shifted, sharp and mocking. “But the problem is… this so-called Supreme General in front of us isn’t real.”The room froze. His words cut through the air like a blade.Julian lifted his hand and pointed directly at Adam, his eyes gleaming with contempt. “If he truly were the Supreme General, I would kneel and pay my respects right now. But unfortunately, this man is a fraud.”Murmurs spread through the hall like wildfire. A moment ago, nobody would

But the man showed no fear. Instead, he sneered, taking his time as he stepped forward. Every click of his expensive leather shoes echoed in the silent hall. He reached the center, turned around slowly, and faced the entire crowd like a king looking down on his subjects.“First, let me introduce myself.” His voice was calm, dripping with arrogance. “My name is Julian Marlowe… from the Marlowe family of Ray City.”The moment the name left his lips, it was like a thunderclap.“The Marlowe family?!” someone gasped.“The top family of Coastal Flair!”Murmurs erupted, spreading like wildfire.Everyone knew the weight of that name. In Coastal Flair, ten great families had stood for generations, their roots stretching into politics, the military, and global business. But among those titans, the Marlowes reigned at the very peak. Their wealth rivaled that of entire nations. Their influence stretched beyond borders. And unlike most clans, they did not merely rely on riches or status—within the

“O Supreme General, Tessa divorced you because Mr. Boros—Christian—forced her. She didn’t intend to do that. Tessa, why are you just standing there? Say something!” Eleanor’s face twisted with desperation as she frantically signaled Tessa, her voice almost trembling.Tessa opened her mouth, but before she could utter a word, Adam raised his hand. His cold eyes silenced her instantly.“You claim you were forced?” Adam’s voice cut through the air like a blade. “You signed away your marriage for the ten-billion-dollar project. Don’t insult me by pretending it wasn’t your choice. Do you think I’m a fool?”Tessa’s lips trembled. She wanted to defend herself, but the truth was undeniable. The project had weighed heavily in her decision, even if she hadn’t meant to abandon Adam completely. She lowered her gaze, unable to speak.But Eleanor refused to give up. She stepped forward, wringing her hands, her voice dripping with false humility. “O Supreme General, please believe us. Tessa was corn

“Kneel, you rascal!” Ambrose roared as he grabbed his son by the collar and slammed him down to his knees.Christian gasped, choking, his face flushed with humiliation.“Mr. Manchester, please… please give us another chance,” Ambrose begged desperately. He kowtowed so hard his forehead smacked against the floor. His voice trembled as he cried out, “We were blind, arrogant fools. I beg your forgiveness!”Adam sat still, calm, his expression unreadable. The weight of his presence pressed down on everyone like a mountain.“As adults, you must pay for your own mistakes,” Adam said flatly, his voice steady but sharp as a blade. His eyes swept across the crowd, freezing their hearts. “I gave you a chance. You squandered it. Do not make the same mistakes in your next lives.”Ambrose’s face turned ashen. He knew it was over. There was no mercy left for him or his son.In a sudden, shocking motion, Ambrose pulled out a dagger. Gasps erupted around the hall.“Dad…?” Christian’s voice cracked wi

At that moment, Ambrose froze. His face drained of color, sweat beaded on his forehead, and his chest rose and fell like he had just seen a ghost. His lips trembled, but no sound came out.“Dad, why are you just standing there?” Christian barked, annoyed. “Tell someone to kill this piece of trash already! He’s pissing me off!”Smack!The sound echoed across the hall as Ambrose’s palm cracked against his son’s face.Christian staggered back, clutching his cheek in shock. “Dad… why did you hit me?” His voice shook, a mixture of anger and disbelief.“You useless fool!” Ambrose’s eyes burned with rage. His body trembled as though he might explode. “This is all your fault! You nearly doomed us all, you little bastard!”Without warning, Ambrose lunged at Christian, striking him again and again. Each blow carried the desperation of a man who realized just how close he had come to death.“Stop—Dad, stop! It hurts!” Christian screamed, stumbling backward, scrambling to shield himself. The once

Hammer was out on a business trip. Before leaving, he had been worried that Ambrose might fail to recognize Adam, so he sent Dennis to keep an eye on things.When Dennis entered the hall, his face darkened at the sight before him. Several men were circling Adam, trying to “teach him a lesson.” The sight made his stomach knot.“Mr. Dennis?” Ambrose’s eyes narrowed, genuinely surprised. “What brings you here?”Dennis’s jaw clenched. His voice was sharp, like a whip cracking across the room.“If I hadn’t come now, you would’ve caused a disaster!”Ambrose frowned, pretending not to understand. “What do you mean, Mr. Dennis?”Dennis took a step forward, his glare fixed on Ambrose. “Who gave you the right to lay your filthy hands on Mr. Manchester?” His tone was ice-cold, every word carrying a warning.The hall went silent. Several of Ambrose’s men looked at each other, confused.“You… know him?” Ambrose asked with disbelief. Then he sneered, his lips curling. “Don’t tell me you’re standing
