Franco forced a heavy smirk as he stared at the 27 years old, Eddie Watson, tall and model-bodied, Eddie stood at the exit door with 20 armed men.
Seeing this, Muna feared for Franco's life. “Please, Franco! You don't have to engage in an argument with him. Allow me take care of this!” Muna tried to put Franco off from facing Eddie who was extremely mad but Franco turned deaf Ears. Before Muna could add more words, Eddie's voice echoed. “You dared to raise your filthy hands on my brother, huh? You will definitely pay with your life!” He said, his eyes fixed on Franco who wasn't freaked or scared. “Men!” Eddie yelled “Attack this Bullshit here and make sure you don't stop beating him until he stop breathing!” Muna turned to Franco, her heart racing non-stop. She shook her head as she tried touching Franco who was determined not to move forward but Franco ignored her and walked forward. “He is not even scared of dying!” A guest whispered audibly and another added “A fool at 20 is a fool forever!” “I can't wait to see him die!” The side talks continued flowing as Franco continued walking towards the strong THUGS walking before him. “Such audacity!” Rita commented, a smile of satisfaction dancing on her lips. “What are you waiting for?” Eddie yelled at the men who were making any attempt to kill Franco. “I said to kill him already!” He added and the men kicked off to attack Franco but before they could even raised their hands on him, his eyes shimmered blue and he stretched his hands, commanding all twenty of them to fall at the same time. Seeing this, Eddie widened his mouth. “Stand up you fools and get him!” He commanded and the men got up again to fight Franco but this time around, Franco bent low and collected one of the men's DAGGER! Standing up from his previous squat, he flung the DAGGER towards the men and using his power of thought, he controlled the dagger to stab all twenty strong men standing before him! As the men fell in weakness, the entire guests were left with their mouths opened in awe! “How on earth was this possible?” Elena was the first to ask in surprise, turning to her sister who added “Is this not the naive and worthless Franco we all used to know? How come he became so strong?” While Lena and her sister were lost in this thoughts, Franco was already walking towards Eddie who stood in surprise beside the exit door. Him as well was shocked but even with that, no way he'd surrender to a useless FOOL like Franco. “So, tell me, Eddie Watson, do you have more men available? I really want to use them for practice!” “Someone as stupid as you have the audacity to speak to me in that manner?” Eddie responded, “You defeated the men because they were weak! But I don't give a damn…” he added, his voice rising nonchalantly. “You've commited two offences which include hurting my brother and marrying my Fiance!” He completed and Franco gave him a DOWNGRADING Face. “Muna?” He asked ridiculously, trying to make fun of Eddie. “If it's Muna you were referring to, then I'm sorry to inform you this but she is my wife ” “Muna is my Fiance and soon to be wife! You have such a courage to wed her?” Eddie said almost immediately after Franco but a voice echoed after his, “I am not your wife, Eddie!” The entire Guests were found in Yelp as they watch Muna deny the ALMIGHTY Eddie Watson! “I never loved you, Eddie, yet you still went on with proposing to my family knowing that they will approve this Marriage” “If you don't love me then who do you love?” Eddie asked impatiently, his red eyes concentrated on Muna. “This trash?” He added. “You and I know very well that this idiot here can't even afford your breakfast. You know how stinkingly Poor he is! He can't even elevate the Scott Empire neither is he able to help your family out. So I don't see the need for this marriage” Eddie's voice rained with vexation as he stared at Franco who smirked after him. “You called me Poor without even knowing my background!” “Though I may be poor, I have the capacity to provide Muna with everything she needs and even lift her to the pinnacle of life! That's how determined I am…” Everyone in the event burst into immediate laughter even before Franco could complete his utterance. How stupid he could be! They mocked him, believing he's hallucinating. Including Muna who stared at him in surprise. She knew without a doubt that Franco was lying. Before she could speak to him, Eddie spoke up. “It's not all about words, Franco! It is all about action!” “You don't say silly things you can't achieve, so what's the need for lying? Trying to impress your new in-laws the same way you deceived your old in-laws?” “I don't say things I'm incapable of doing. Once I say something, I make sure to fulfill them” Franco responded. “Quite interesting, Franco!” Eddie changed his tone to a more sarcastic tone. “Why don't you prove your worth to us! Show us how big and mighty you are…” “What do you want me to do? Say it and I'll do it!” Franco cut Eddie off. Muna held his shirt and whispered “Don't do something foolish, Franco!” “I refuse to let anyone intimidate me, Muna!” Franco responded “I will teach this pervert here that I am more than what he thinks I am!” Immediately after Franco's words, Eddie threw some newspapers to him. Picking them up, he saw his Master, Sir Xoxo. “He is the former Ruffian Lord of the Ruffia Group. I want you to make him available here!” Eddie added almost immediately, “If you're able to make him come to this villa, only then will you be consider as a true Genius!” “Is that all?” Franco asked to everyone's surprise. They all wondered what gave him liver to accept such a proposal when the SAID person is very powerful and people like him can't even afford to be his Driver. Muna was the first to speak up for Franco. “This is my marriage, Eddie! You don't have the right to tell my husband what to do!” “Besides, Old Mr Xoxo is very old and can't even afford to come here. How can an ordinary person lilke Franco make him come here?” “You don't have to worry about me, Muna!” Franco said after Muna, “I can manage this myself!” He added and Eddie smiled viciously. He knew that there is no freaking way that Franco would be able to bring Mr Xoxo to that event, so, this is a pretty way to make him learn his hard lesson! “Come on, what are you waiting for? Call Mr Xoxo and command him here!” Eddie's voice echoed ironically, trying to make fun of Franco. As they all stared at him to see how he perfectly performs this task, Franco dialed a number and upon response, he instructed “In two minutes, I want you to bring Sir Xoxo to this event! Track my location!” He said and hung up. Immediately he hung up, Lena was the first to speak up. “You have just Two minutes, Franco! Just two minutes to make your so called XOXO appear here because the one and only Xoxo we have in this country can never be here in two minutes!” “Just sit and watch, Lena! Don't be too fast!” Franco responded, turning to Edgar whose eyes were clicked on his watch. Before Franco could take his eyes off Edgar, he said, “Two minutes is up, Franco! We didn't see anybody called Xoxo!” “I knew you were Fake!” He added “Your time is up, Franco but we haven't seen Old Xoxo here! You think we are all fools here?” Eddie added, his tone full of rage and poison. “Since you failed the task, I think you should sign the Divorce papers!” He added and flung the Divorce papers to Franco but before the papers could land on Franco's face, it hung on the air. Everyone exclaimed in surprise as they watch the papers stay stagnant in air, without landing! “How on earth was this possible?” Eddie shook his head in wonder. “Only a Ruffian Lord have the power to hang things like this! Tell me, are you the Ruffian Lord or member of the Ruffian group?” “He is not a member of the Ruffia group! We made that possible!” A voice echoed from behind forcing everyone to look back! Their jaws dropped after seeing David Murphy, the Representative of Ruffia group walking in uniform with some men in all BLACK ON BLACK! As they all walked forward, they made a space for an old man, in his 80’s and in all BLACK as well, walking elegantly towards Franco. “He is the Former Ruffian Lord!” They all whispered to themselves as the men continued walking towards Franco. When they got to Franco, they bowed their heads and chanted “Forgive us for being late, Our Lord!” Eddie was left in awe! “Everyone bowed before this trash, including the Almighty Lord Xoxo! How is this possible?”

238. He Should Be Removed Immediately!
The silence that followed Franco’s threat was broken when Granny stepped forward. The tip of her walking stick struck the ground with a sharp crack, commanding attention. Her wrinkled face was stern, her eyes locked on Eddie.“What on earth are you thinking, boy?” she demanded. “Did you truly believe you could bring down the Lord? Do you have a death wish?”Eddie froze, his breath catching. Of all people, Granny was the last he expected to hear this from. He had thought she would show her resentment for Franco—maybe even stand beside him in tearing the man down. But her words revealed the opposite. She was siding with Franco.The realization stung like betrayal.“What are you saying, Granny?” Eddie’s voice shook with disbelief. “You mean to tell me I shouldn’t be doing this? Don’t you know who we’re talking about here? It’s Franco! The same useless man who once lived under your roof as a pauper. And now you defend him?” His voice rose, raw and incredulous. “You should be condemning hi
237. Choose Wisely!
The whispers in the crowd still rippled like restless wind when Franco turned his cold eyes toward Eddie.“I love your audacity, Eddie. But…” His voice trailed, heavy with menace.“You should have learned from what happened to Rita,” Franco continued, his tone sharpening. “Her fate should have been enough warning—that no one speaks against the Ruffian Lord.”Eddie turned to him, fearless, his stare piercing through the weight of the threat.“So, what exactly are you trying to prove by that? That you’re above being spoken against?”He stepped closer, his voice gaining edge. “You should know better, Franco. Just because you were made the Ruffian Lord doesn’t mean you’re pure. Personally, I don’t see anything Ruffian about you. You don’t even deserve the position you’re standing on.”The words barely left his mouth when a metallic click cracked the air—guns cocked and aimed at Eddie’s head.The sharp sound froze the crowd. Breath caught in throats as everyone braced for the inevitable—a
236. Do You Have Solid Reason To Back It Up?
As Rita collapsed, weak and fragile, the cameras instantly locked onto her face—the woman who had shaken the heart of the Lord.This had never happened before. Even Lord Xoxo himself was stunned. How could the Lord’s divine ears be moved by Muna’s words?The crowd whispered the same question, their voices rising in disbelief.Eddie only shook his head. He still couldn’t accept it. The very man he despised, mocked, and dragged through the mud—Franco—was now standing before them as the Ruffian Lord.The memory struck him like a blade. Months ago, Franco had challenged him to present a gift to the Scotts. Eddie brought fakes, confident in his scheme. Yet Franco had destroyed those gifts and—before everyone’s eyes—summoned Lord Xoxo to deliver treasures worth billions.Now it all made sense.Eddie’s lips trembled.“So… Franco was right that day? He wasn’t faking it? He… was the true genius?”His chest tightened. His thoughts dragged him back to that night.“And that night…”His pulse quic
238. The Ruffian Lord Can Be Merciful?
But even with all her begging and desperate pleas, her mother’s body kept trembling under the assault of that terrifying power.Her words couldn’t reach Franco. They bounced off him as if they were nothing, and the sight of this made her lips quiver.“My words don’t reach the ears of the Lord… This isn’t the Franco I once knew. This version is merciless, unyielding. Why? Why can’t he hear me? Is he truly this wicked—or is he only taking his revenge on us?”As the thought left her trembling lips, she looked up again—and froze. Franco’s ears were glowing. Her head shook violently as she whispered to herself, trying to grasp the meaning of it.It wasn’t only her who was shaken. The people watching also asked themselves, their voices filled with dread.“Why is this happening? Why are the Lord’s ears glowing?”“This can’t be a good thing!”“No…this is bad, terribly bad!”“Is this a curse? A bad omen? What on earth is happening?!”Everyone had questions, yet not a single answer that could e
237. I Have Sinned I know
Elena’s lips quivered until her teeth began to chatter. She stood rooted, watching her mother convulse as if struck by lightning. Breath jagged, she tried to make sense of it all. “Franco is the—Franco is the Ruffian Lord?” The words came out broken, each syllable soaked in disbelief.Rita’s body shuddered under the invisible pressure. Maya threw herself to her knees before Franco and bowed her head until her forehead touched the floor. “My Lord, have mercy. Please—my mother didn’t mean to. She failed you; she failed to show you the honor you deserve. Spare her life.”Franco’s fists tightened. Mercy did not live on his face. He unleashed another searing orb; it struck Rita with bone-deep force. Her mouth hung open—soundless. She hovered between worlds: mind sharp, body betrayed by pain.Edgar staggered as if the revelation had knocked the breath out of him. “Franco… the Ruffian Lord?” he repeated to himself, as though saying it might bend reality.Maya’s voice cracked again. “Please,
