"Sir, we need to focus on treating William first!" Johnny reminded urgently, his voice shaking slightly with worry.Wilfred, whose rage just moments ago had erupted like a volcano, finally started to calm down. His breathing slowed as he reached out and took his unconscious grandson from Johnny's arms. “I heard the medical sage is staying at Rising Sun Hall. Go get him. Now.”As the head of a martial arts family, Wilfred knew a few treatment methods himself. After carrying William into the house, he began examining the boy’s injuries carefully.The more he checked, the colder his heart became. His expression darkened.His grandson wasn’t just injured, he was seriously damaged. Even with timely treatment, William might survive, but as for the martial path? That journey was likely over.And to Wilfred, cutting off someone’s martial arts future was no different than killing them."Aaarrgh!"The howl tore from his chest. The future of the Anderson family was gone. He couldn't accept it.S

The man who spoke looked to be in his thirties, dressed in flashy clothes—clearly trying too hard to look like some kind of cool player. Behind him stood an older man in his fifties, wearing a long coat and exuding an aura like some old-school martial arts guy.The younger man glanced at Hudson standing next to Ivory, smirking. “Ivory, your taste is seriously going downhill. This guy? Really? He looks like some pretty boy you picked off the street.” He scoffed. “A guy like this, what’s he even good for?”Hudson’s brow twitched slightly, irritation flashing in his eyes. But before he could speak, the guy, William Anderson, gave him a once-over and said mockingly, “What’s the matter, pretty boy? Can’t handle a few words from me?”Hudson’s expression turned cold. He wasn’t interested in playing nice anymore. Just as he was about to step forward, Ivory shot a glare at William and snapped, “You’d better watch your damn mouth, or I swear I’ll knock all your teeth out.”The Anderson and Lewi

Everyone in the room was frozen in place—Freya, Enzo, and even Ivory’s secretary, Kira. They all watched in disbelief as Ivory and Hudson walked away together.As the secretary of the president of Lewis Group, Kira knew just how critical this partnership was for the company. Every detail of the deal had already been negotiated. All they needed was a signature, and it would’ve been official.But now? All of it just got thrown out the window—because of a man Freya openly looked down on?Kira was still processing what had happened when a memory from that morning flashed in her mind. Two major companies had planned this meeting, and normally, Ivory would’ve attended something this important herself. She had even said she’d be handling the meeting personally. But when Kira called her earlier, Ivory told her she had to pick someone up and that the negotiation would be left in her hands.At the time, Kira had wondered who could be so important that Ivory would skip such a crucial meeting.No

Rockwell Group – Penthouse Office****The moment Hudson pushed the door open, a cup came flying toward him. He caught it effortlessly.“Hudson, are you seriously insane?” Freya snapped, her face flushed with anger. “You kept calling nonstop like your life depended on it! Do you have any idea how important that meeting was for the company? You’re unbelievable!”She looked like she was about to explode. Her eyes were sharp like daggers, aimed straight at him.Hudson, completely unfazed, glanced around the office and said flatly, “Where’s the agreement?”His calm response only made Freya angrier. He didn’t even want to argue—he had clearly come just for the divorce.She clenched her hands. The cold look in her eyes deepened. For five years, he used to say he loved her. Now, he was turning his back faster than flipping a page.‘Men are liars.’ she thought.The more she thought about it, the more furious she became. She didn’t even bother with another word. She turned to her desk, picked

“Enzo! Enzo!”Freya jumped out of bed and rushed into the next room.Last night, Enzo had planned to sleep with Freya, who was still a virgin. But just as he was about to follow her into the bedroom, Faye stopped him.Faye made it clear—it wasn’t appropriate for the two of them to be together yet. After all, Freya and Hudson were still legally married. They needed to finalize the divorce first.The Wilson family still had a name to protect in Beverly Hills. If word got out, it would bring shame to the entire family.“What’s going on, Freya?” Enzo asked groggily, his eyes half open.“It’s Hudson. He’s not dead. He messaged me just now and said to meet him at the court!”“What? Didn’t you say last night that we’d get news of his death this morning?”Hudson being alive made Freya anxious. She already felt guilty—if he really was still around, she wouldn’t be able to stay calm.Enzo froze for a moment before his face darkened. He immediately grabbed his phone to call Marcos, the guy he hi

She didn’t want to lose him. Someone as skilled and strong as Hudson wasn’t easy to come by, and he’d said before that her grandfather’s condition would require continued acupuncture. If he left now, she wasn’t sure he’d come back.Hudson gave a half-smile and asked, “Can someone else handle a divorce?”“Divorce?” Ivory’s eyes widened in disbelief.She hadn’t even realized Hudson was married. Not once had that crossed her mind.After relieving herself, Ivory returned with an awkward smile. She wanted to know more—who exactly was Hudson’s wife? Why were they getting divorced?—but when the words reached her lips, she couldn’t bring herself to ask.She knew better. No matter what their connection was, there were boundaries, and she still had enough self-restraint to respect them.Taking a deep breath, Ivory said gently, “Hudson, if that’s the case, I won’t hold you up. But once you’re done with everything, give me a call. I’ll come pick you up.”Hudson nodded. Ivory didn’t say anything e
