******

Normally, Ben’s father was quiet and restrained, the type who usually swallowed their anger until it rotted inside him… someone who loves running from trouble as far away as he could.

Yet right now… the same man appeared as though a demon had possessed him.

He continued surging forward aggressively, instinctively lifting the thick stick he was holding, his body moving even before his mind could catch up.

And watching this, Glenn, for a brief second, calculated the angle of the baton, the distance, the speed, and the direction it was heading.

And the conclusion… it came easily.

Ben was trying to strike him with the stick… a realization that instantly threw Glenn off guard.

Although with Glenn’s strength, he wouldn’t be hurt no matter how hard Ben struck him, but still… Ben was trying to kill him.

And just as this thought hit him, Ben reached him, whacking the stick down without the slightest hesitation.

But… before the situation could spiral, several men rushed in and g

  • Chapter 389 – Glenn and Ben’s Depart

    ******“Do you know where they took little Ethan?” Glenn’s tone wasn’t loud or serious.Instead, it was casual, almost conversational, sounding as if he were asking for directions to a restaurant rather than the location of some unknown enemies most definitely after his life.And hearing him, Ben, who had been on edge the entire time, nodded his head before he even realized it. His movements were too quick, his eyes glossy with anxiety.“I… I don’t know the exact place,” Ben admitted sincerely. “I tried getting it, but they said we can only call them when we’re ready to deliver you. Then they will send us the coordinates.”Glenn nodded once, absorbing the information without visible reaction.“Then please call them,” he said.His eyes flickered faintly, a sharp glint passing through them before disappearing just as quickly.‘Let’s see who thinks they have the capability to get me,’ he thought calmly.He didn’t say it aloud, of course.Experience had long taught him that pe

  • Chapter 388 – Do You Know Where They Took Little Ethan

    ******The abductors hadn’t explained Glenn’s offense, why they wanted him, or anything.Instead, all the spokesperson had said was that… to release Ethan, Glenn had to be delivered to them before the next day without any delays or tricks.Otherwise, Ethan would be killed.The caller had been calm… mockingly calm as though he were discussing a routine transaction instead of a child’s life.They had also been explicitly warned not to involve the cops… the abductors claiming they would know if they did, and once they did, Ethan would die.And as Glenn listened to all this, his expression didn’t change. But internally, he exhaled slowly.In fact, even before his arrival, Ben had already been prepared to go to Jonathan’s house to learn more about him… to confirm whether he had been released from prison.Ben hadn’t recounted much about that to him, but...Glenn knew.He had been certain that if he hadn’t arrived when he did, Jonathan and his family… people who had nothing to do w

  • Chapter 387 – Ben’s Recount

    ******Ben’s voice wasn’t that loud, but it carried weight, completely catching everyone off guard.But before they could react, Ben ignored them and looked back at Glenn.“Okay then,” Ben said, his tone heavy, restrained, and exhausted. “I will give you the information you require.”Silence…Then everyone, “_”They couldn’t help but stare in a daze for a moment, then they turned to Ben in surprise.But Ben wasn’t looking at them. His gaze was locked on Glenn, all the fierceness, aggression, and murderous intent he had shown earlier utterly vanished, as if they had never existed at all.“I don’t know whether you genuinely don’t know what’s happening,” Ben continued slowly, “or if you’re pretending.”His eyes were bloodshot, his expression carved from stress, sleeplessness, and exhaustion.“But I will tell you everything anyway.”A massive wave of disbelief rippled through the crowd.“This…” they blinked in unison, all of them returning to their senses.Then…“Husband!” C

  • Chapter 386 – The Crowd’s Accusation and Hostility

    ******Glenn had no idea who might be after him… he hadn’t had any enemies since returning to Jay City… or so he had assumed.And this assumption cracked quietly in his mind, not with panic, but with a mild, almost academic curiosity.If someone had gone as far as abducting an innocent child just to draw him out, then whoever was behind it was either tired of living or he had destroyed their entire family and livelihood.Still focused on Ben, Glenn continued.“I will go there and rescue little Ethan,” he said, his voice still calm, steady, and serious, completely stripped of emotion to the point that it sounded almost detached… like a man discussing a delayed appointment rather than walking into a trap designed with a child’s life as leverage.The reaction was immediate.Every mouth fell open, several jaws literally slackened, and all eyes widened, all of them acting as though Glenn had just declared he would stroll into a burning building for a casual chat.But Glenn didn’t g

  • Chapter 385 – Since They Claimed They’re After Me, I Will Go to Them!

    ******“This… this motherf*cker is still smiling at a time like this?!”“Does that mean he doesn’t feel even the slightest shred of remorse for what he has done?!”“Hah! What else would you expect from an ex-convict?”“Why was trash like him even released from prison in the first place? He should’ve been left to rot!”Every face twisted with disgust, eyes blazing with self-righteous fury as the crowd fed on itself... each insult louder, uglier, faster, more vicious, and more confident than the last, heavily soaked in hatred and moral outrage. As for Charlotte and Ben… they froze, staring at Glenn as though they were seeing him for the first time… and what they thought they saw shattered something inside them.Charlotte’s body trembled violently as she lifted a shaking finger to point at him.“You…” Her voice scraped out of her throat, hoarse and brittle, as though it might snap at any moment. “Did you just… smile?”Her eyes widened, turning glassy and disbelieving.“Does th

  • Chapter 384 – Blood Really is Still Stronger than Anything as Usual

    ******Ben’s eyes flashed with icy ferocity, thick veins bulging at his temples as his fury reignited.“You dare act ignorant with me?” the man roared, his voice hoarse and shaking with rage. The killing intent rolling off him surged violently, thick enough to make the people closest to him flinch.It looked as though he might truly lose control this time.And just like that, the fragile silence in the air shattered like a piece of glass, the street erupting again.“This bastard! How dare he act oblivious!”“Does he really think we’re fools?”“He’s pretending he doesn’t know anything? At a time like this?”“If he had nothing to do with it, why would he show up now?!”“Hmph! He thinks we are so stupid to believe it’s a coincidence!”“What a joke!”“Shameless!”The bystanders’ insults came fast and vicious, each one sharper than the last.Spite dripped from every word, stabbing toward Glenn like a barrage of blades meant to flay him alive.Their faces were twisted with hat
