At that moment, upon hearing what Nathaniel Jr. had just said, both Mr. Nathaniel and his wife turned slowly to look at each other. Their expressions remained cold, unreadable at first. But something passed between them a silent exchange. They had both seen it. The determination in their son’s eyes. The desperation in his voice. The weight in his bow.

He wasn’t just saying it this time. He wasn’t making excuses.

There was something different in his posture, in the way his fists remained clenched even as his head remained bowed low. This wasn’t the usual Nathaniel Jr. they knew the one who would try, fail, and cover it with arrogance. No. This time… he was pleading. But not out of weakness.

It was because he wanted to prove something.

And that alone was worth noticing.

Mrs. Nathaniel narrowed her eyes and tilted her head just slightly, her lips pressed together in thought. Mr. Nathaniel crossed his arms, staring down at his son with a tightened jaw.

They didn’t speak immediately, becau

    Then without wasting anymore time he turned to Mr. Brown.His eyes narrowed slightly, not in rage but in disappointment.“I wanted to go peacefully,” Tyler said, his voice low and calm. “I didn’t want any trouble. I wasn’t in the mood for drama today. I had plans. I had my own things to take care of.”He took one slow step forward.“But it seems like some people just don’t get it. They don’t listen. They think being stubborn makes them strong. They think dragging someone against their will makes them powerful.”Another step, Mr. Brown’s throat bobbed. His heart was pounding now.Tyler’s voice dropped even lower. “And now, because you decided to interrupt my day, because your men decided to raise their hands first… I’m not going to let this slide.”He came to a stop.“I’m not going to take it lightly with you, Mr. Brown.”His eyes darkened.“I’m going to teach you a very big lesson… one that will remind you next time someone says, ‘I’m not interested’ you better get that into your head

    Immediately a sickening sound tore through the air.The man’s arm snapped like a twig.The force of his own strength turned against him, as if he had punched something far stronger than stone. Pain surged through his body like fire. His eyes went wide in horror as he stumbled back, grabbing his now limp arm, screaming in agony.“Aaaaaargh! My arm! My arm is broken!” he howled, dropping to his knees.Upon seeing what just happened the other two froze instantly, staring at Tyler.They didn’t understand what just happened.Just seconds ago, one of their strongest men had charged at Tyler with confidence, arrogance even, but now he was on the ground screaming like a helpless child his arm snapped in the most unnatural way, like a dry stick crushed by something unseen. And the worst part? Tyler didn’t even move. He didn’t dodge. He didn’t block. He didn’t even blink. He just stood there, like nothing happened at all.The two remaining men stood frozen, staring at their fallen comrade whose

    At that moment, the air around them shifted.The second Mr. Brown gave the command, the three men stepped forward without hesitation. They were big each of them built like a wall, with thick forearms, broad shoulders, and eyes that screamed violence. As they moved in, the sound of cracking knuckles echoed through the quiet scene. One rolled his neck side to side, loosening up his joints. Another stretched his arms, letting out a quiet grunt as his knuckles popped one after the other. They were warming up not because they needed it, but because they wanted Tyler to see, to feel, what was coming.One of the men, the tallest and probably the loudest, stepped ahead of the other two. He pointed at Tyler with a smirk on his face, like he had already won. “It’s best you come with us quietly, man,” he said, his voice low but filled with threat. “We can make it easy for you or we’ll drag you into that van like a sack of potatoes. You don’t want that, not with that pretty face of yours.” He la

    At that moment, Tyler stood tall. His voice wasn’t raised, but the weight of every word he spoke landed like a hammer on a sheet of glass. He looked around slowly, letting his eyes meet every soul in that space eyes filled with quiet fire. And then he started speaking, not like someone trying to argue, but like someone laying down the final truth.“Let me just be straight with everybody here,” Tyler said firmly, with a steady tone that demanded silence. “I don’t want to drag this, and I don’t want to be approached again after this. No one and I mean no one has approached me. Not the Bushman family. Not any other family. Nobody.”Mr. Brown blinked, confused, and slightly taken aback.“I don’t know where you got that information from,” Tyler went on. “But I suggest you go right back there and tell whoever gave it to you that they’re wrong. And honestly, I’m not even surprised. All of you keep moving around like you're playing some big, important game. You think I care about your princes

    At that moment, Mr. Brown calmly adjusted the cuff of his coat, then looked straight into Tyler’s eyes. His voice carried weight not loud, but heavy with confidence and finality.“Now listen,” he said. “I’m not here on behalf of the Bushman family. I came directly as the voice of the Nathaniel family. And that means I don’t deal in rumors, I deal in facts and results.”He took a step closer, tone sharper but still polite.“Whatever it is the Bushman have promised you… status, money, fame, protection I want you to say it now. Every single word. Because I’m telling you, the Nathaniel are ready to double everything. Twice the benefits. Twice the protection. Twice the reward. That’s how serious we are.”He paused again, letting those words hang heavy in the air like a silent threat. “That is why I came myself. Not a messenger. Not a middleman. Me. Because I came to strike this deal with you face to face. So that there’s no misunderstanding. No confusion. No turning back.”Mr. Brown then p

    At that moment, Mr. Brown slowly shook his head in bitter disappointment, his lips pressed tightly together as his eyes remained fixed on Tyler. He couldn’t believe what he had just heard no, he refused to believe it.Did this boy just draw a line with him? he, was being told what to do, what not to do, and being warned about consequences like some street fool? It was absurd. It was insulting. It was infuriating.Nobody… absolutely nobody gave him orders. Nobody dared to stand before him like an equal, not to talk of someone who looked like they were plucked out of some random crowd. It was beyond arrogance it was stupidity.At that moment, Brown didn't respond. He didn’t give in to the anger boiling in his chest. He simply stayed silent. Not because he had no words, but because he had too many. And if he opened his mouth now, he might say something he wouldn't be able to take back.He inhaled slowly, deep and controlled, letting the rage settle somewhere deeper. He decided to act li
