Only then did her mother finally relax, her face softening with a loving smile.

She knew her daughter well—kind-hearted and principled. She wouldn't do anything truly wrong.

    Fist after fist crashed down on Felix’s face, each blow more merciless than the last.Felix passed out from the pain, only to wake up again in agony.When he came to, he scrambled to his knees in front of Anthony, kowtowing desperately."Mr. Jones, I was wrong! I swear I was wrong! Please—spare me! Let me live!"He trembled violently, like a fat pig pinned to the butcher’s table.Anthony’s face remained cold and indifferent, saying nothing.Franklin, on the other hand, stood ramrod straight like a soldier awaiting orders."Mr. Jones, say the word—I'll deal with this piece of trash however you like!""Someone like him has no place in government," Anthony said flatly. "Do what you want. I never want to see him again."In truth, it wasn’t Felix who had truly provoked Anthony—it was Ian. The real culprit had already been punished. Killing Felix would’ve been meaningless.Franklin nodded furiously. "Yes, yes, absolutely! Everything will be done as you say, Mr. Jones."He then turned and ro

    Anthony took a deep breath and said coldly, "I hadn’t planned on killing you. But now, I’ve changed my mind. You have to die today." Ian sneered in response. So long as his father was here, he believed nothing could go wrong. He turned to Felix and said, "Dad, did you hear that? This punk’s out of his mind!" Felix’s face was dark, but he didn’t fly into a rage. Instead, he said coldly, "You think I, Felix Doyle, got this far by bluffing? I’ve earned my place—understand?" He raised his hand and commanded, "Call Mr. Thompson. I want this kid dead today." "Yes, Mr. Doyle!" One of the Mythical Tier bodyguards immediately took out his phone to make the call. "No need to call. I’m already here." A deep, rugged voice rang out from outside. Felix’s face lit up with joy. "Ha! Kid, you're finished now!" He turned his head quickly. Outside, Mr. Thompson was escorting a middle-aged man inside—his face cold, his expression uneasy. That man was Franklin Fisher, mayor of Silverhave

    Panic overwhelmed Ian Doyle. Facing these two monstrous figures, his courage shattered. "You… you just wait…" His hands trembling, Ian fumbled out his phone and dialed his father’s number. "Dad… Dad! Come save me! I’m going to die!" As soon as the call connected, Ian broke down into sobs. "What’s going on? What happened?" came an urgent voice from the other end. "Dad, no time to explain! Come now! I’m at Crystal Haven, Villa One!" "I’m busy right now! Who the hell would dare touch you?!" his father shouted furiously. "Dad, it’s Freya Mitchell… she recorded me! Her ex-husband is trying to kill me! You have to come now or I’m dead!!" The moment he heard that, Ian’s father exploded with rage. "Fuck! Who dares touch my son?! Don’t they know I’m the mayor’s secretary?! Tell him to wait. I’m coming right now!" The call ended. Ian looked smugly at Anthony, sneering: "My dad’s on his way.

    Preston hesitated and said carefully, “Mom, we… we really were pretty cruel to Anthony before. Maybe we should go apologize. He might be willing to help us.”Kimberly stared at him for a moment, then slowly nodded. “You might be right. How about we call him and ask to meet?”“Yeah, okay!” Preston nodded quickly, but added, “But Mom, you call him. I’m not doing it. He definitely doesn’t want to see me.”“Sigh, fine.
