Chapter 246: The Smiling Tiger Arrives
Jack Sullivan continued his meal with complete composure, occasionally glancing at Steven Turner who remained kneeling on the blood-stained marble floor. The young man's face was a mask of pain and humiliation, but his eyes burned with the promise of revenge."Jack," Anna Young whispered nervously, "maybe we should leave before his father arrives. This Steven Harris sounds very dangerous.""Dangerous to some people," Jack Sullivan replied calmly, cutting another piece of meat. "Not to me."Grace Chang paced anxiously near the windows, checking for any sign of approaching vehicles. "Mr. Sullivan, Steven Harris is known as the Smiling Tiger for a reason. He's incredibly powerful and has never been defeated in this region.""How interesting," Jack Sullivan said with mild curiosity. "I look forward to meeting him."Twenty miles away, Steven Harris sat in the back of his private helicopter, his face grim as he processed what Marcus Baker had told him over the phone. The Smiling Tiger was a
Chapter 245: The Breaking Point
Steven Turner's face contorted with rage and humiliation as he stared at Jack Sullivan, his wounded pride overriding any sense of self-preservation."I don't care who you think you are!" Steven Turner snarled. "This is Grace Region! My father's territory! You're nothing here but an outsider who got lucky once!"Marcus Baker stepped forward urgently. "Steven, please reconsider what you're saying. Mr. Sullivan's reputation—""His reputation means nothing here!" Steven Turner cut him off viciously. "I don't care if he killed a hundred bandits! In Grace Region, the Turner family rules!"Grace Chang looked horrified. "Steven, you need to stop talking immediately!""Don't tell me what to do!" Steven Turner whirled on her. "Just because your family has money doesn't mean you understand real power!"He turned back to Jack Sullivan with venomous contempt. "You think killing some highway robber makes you special? You think it gives you the right to disrespect me in my own territory?"Jack Sulli
Chapter 244: The Stunning Revelation
The tension in the banquet hall reached a breaking point as Steven Turner continued his furious tirade against Jack Sullivan. The party guests watched nervously, expecting violence to erupt at any moment."You worthless nobody!" Steven Turner screamed. "I'll destroy you for insulting my family! You have no idea what you've done!"Just as Steven Turner raised his hand as if to strike Jack Sullivan, the banquet hall doors opened and a distinguished man in a military-style uniform strode in. His presence immediately commanded attention, and conversations died as guests recognized the newcomer."Vice President Baker!" Grace Chang exclaimed with obvious relief. "What brings you here tonight?"Marcus Baker, Vice President of the Tiger Martial Arts Association, surveyed the tense scene with sharp eyes. His uniform bore the distinctive tiger insignia that marked him as one of the most powerful martial arts officials in the region."I came to personally deliver some important news," Marcus Bak
Chapter 243: The Skeptical Crowd
After Paul Young's humiliating departure, the atmosphere in the banquet hall gradually returned to normal. Grace Chang, determined to be a gracious hostess despite the earlier disruption, approached Jack Sullivan's group with a warm smile."Please, don't let that unpleasantness spoil your evening," Grace Chang said sincerely. "I insist you stay and enjoy the party as my personal guests.""That's very kind of you," Anna Young replied politely, "but we really should—""Nonsense!" Sophie Stewart interrupted enthusiastically. "Grace, you have to hear about what Jack did on the bus! It was absolutely incredible!"Grace Chang looked intrigued. "Oh? What happened?"Sophie Stewart's eyes lit up as she launched into her story. "We were traveling to Jefferson County when these terrible bandits attacked our bus! The leader was that notorious criminal Hedgehog—you know, the one who's been terrorizing the highways for years!""Hedgehog?" Grace Chang's expression grew serious. "I've heard of him. V
Chapter 242: The Birthday Girl's Judgment
The commotion at the buffet table had drawn a growing crowd of elegantly dressed guests, all curious about what was disturbing the exclusive birthday celebration. Through the circle of onlookers, a young woman in an expensive designer gown pushed her way forward, her face showing clear irritation."What is going on here?" Grace Chang demanded, her voice carrying the authority of someone accustomed to immediate obedience. "This is my birthday party, and I will not tolerate disruptions!"Grace Chang was strikingly beautiful, with perfectly styled hair and jewelry that probably cost more than most people's annual salaries. More importantly, the tiger-shaped brooch on her dress marked her as a member of the Tiger Martial Arts Association—a detail that immediately commanded respect from everyone present.Paul Young quickly composed himself, seeing an opportunity to salvage the situation. "Miss Chang, I sincerely apologize for the disturbance. This man here," he pointed dramatically at Jack
Chapter 241: The Deceptive Invitation
At seven o'clock sharp, Paul Young arrived at the Young family home in a polished black sedan. He wore an even more expensive suit than before and carried himself with the swagger of someone about to demonstrate his superiority."Ready for an unforgettable evening?" Paul asked as Jack Sullivan and Anna Young approached the car.Anna Young had dressed simply but elegantly in a navy blue dress, while Jack Sullivan wore a clean button-down shirt and dark slacks—modest but presentable attire."Thank you for inviting us," Anna Young said politely, though her tone remained cool."My pleasure," Paul replied, opening the car door for her with exaggerated gallantry. "Tonight, you'll see what fine dining really means."As they drove toward the Four Seasons Hotel, Paul kept up a steady stream of conversation about his important connections and impressive salary. Jack Sullivan listened with apparent interest while Anna Young stared out the window, clearly wishing she was anywhere else.When they
