CHAPTER 73 PART 2
"You attempted to force Mr. Cross to surrender valuable property through threats of violence," Lieutenant Colonel Harrison explained. "That's textbook extortion.""Wait!" Edward fell to his knees, his pride completely shattered. "Please, there's been a misunderstanding! I'll pay you! Whatever you want! Just let this go!""Are you seriously attempting to bribe federal officers?" Major Stevens asked incredulously."Please!" Emilia joined her father on the floor, tears streaming down her face. "We'll do anything! Name your price!""You're both making this worse for yourselves," Lieutenant Colonel Harrison warned coldly. "Attempted bribery of military personnel is a federal offense.""I have money!" Edward desperately pulled out his wallet, spilling cash across the marble floor. "Take it all! Just forget this ever happened!"Major Stevens looked down at the scattered bills with disgust. "Sir, you're pathetic. Do you really think we'd compromise our honor for your dirty money?""But... but
CHAPTER 73 PART 1
The heavy knock on the front door echoed through the mansion like a death knell. Edward straightened his shoulders and smoothed his expensive suit, preparing to play the role of innocent victim to perfection."That's them!" Edward announced triumphantly, striding toward the entrance with renewed confidence. "Time to face justice, Keith. I hope you're ready to spend the next twenty years behind bars."Emilia practically vibrated with excitement as she followed her father. "Finally! Keith, you're about to learn what happens when you mess with the Richardson family!"The front door swung open to reveal two stern-faced soldiers in full military dress uniforms. Their presence commanded immediate respect, and even the wounded thugs on the floor fell silent."Good evening," the lead soldier announced, his voice crisp and authoritative. "I'm Lieutenant Colonel Harrison, and this is Major Stevens. We received a report about an armed individual on these premises."Edward stepped forward eagerly
CHAPTER 72 PART 2
Yona dropped to her knees beside Keith, clutching at his trouser leg with desperate hands. "Please, Keith! Forget about the heirloom! It's just a piece of jewelry! Your freedom is worth more than any object!""Get up, Yona!" Emilia snapped at her sister. "Stop embarrassing yourself by begging for this criminal!""I'm trying to save him!" Yona sobbed, her tears falling freely. "Keith, please listen to me! Run away right now! Leave through the back door! There might still be time!""Time for what?" Edward mocked. "The military doesn't play games, little sister. They've probably already surrounded the entire neighborhood. Your precious Keith is finished!"Keith looked down at Yona with gentle eyes. "I appreciate your concern, but I'm not going anywhere. And I'm certainly not leaving without what I came for.""You're absolutely mad!" Emilia declared, throwing her hands up in exasperation. "In my mind, you're already sitting in a prison cell wearing orange jumpsuit! Why can't you understan
CHAPTER 72 PART 1
Edward's hands trembled with vindictive excitement as he grabbed his phone and dialed the military base with deliberate precision. His finger hovered over the speaker button before pressing it, ensuring everyone in the room could hear his moment of triumph."Fort Richardson Military Base, Sergeant Williams speaking," came the crisp, professional voice through the speaker."Sergeant Williams, this is Edward Richardson," Edward announced with self-important authority. "I need to report a serious criminal incident at my residence. There's an armed individual on my property who has illegally discharged a firearm and wounded multiple people.""Sir, are you currently in immediate danger?" the sergeant asked with evident concern."The situation is contained for now," Edward replied smugly, his eyes never leaving Keith's impassive face. "But this criminal is still armed and extremely dangerous. He's already shot two men in the legs and threatened my family."Keith remained perfectly still, hi
CHAPTER 71
The lead thug cracked his knuckles menacingly as he stepped forward, his eyes locked on both Keith and Yona. "Alright, boys, playtime's over. The boss wants them both taught a lesson they'll never forget.""Wait!" Yona cried desperately. "I'm part of this family! You can't hurt me!""Orders are orders, sweetheart," another thug sneered. "Your daddy said anyone who gets in the way gets the same treatment. Family or not."Keith positioned himself protectively in front of Yona, his stance relaxed but ready. "You gentlemen might want to reconsider this course of action.""Shut up and take your beating like a man!" the first thug roared, swinging a massive fist toward Keith's face.Keith caught the punch effortlessly, his grip crushing the thug's knuckles until the man screamed in agony. With a swift twist, Keith sent him flying across the room to crash into the ornate dining table."What the hell?" another thug gasped, staring at his fallen comrade. "How did he—"Keith's elbow connected w
CHAPTER 70
Yona's sobs echoed through the dining room as she maintained her protective stance in front of Keith, her small frame trembling with desperation and fear."Please, Father, I'm begging you!" Yona cried, her voice breaking with emotion. "Keith saved your life! How can you repay his kindness with violence?"Edward's face contorted with rage as he glared at his youngest daughter. "Yona, if you don't stop this pathetic display right now, I'll order these men to beat you senseless along with your precious Keith!""You wouldn't dare hurt your own daughter!" Yona gasped, her eyes wide with disbelief."Try me!" Edward snarled, his patience completely exhausted. "I am the patriarch of this family, and I will not tolerate insubordination from anyone - not even my own blood!"Emilia stepped forward with a cruel smile. "Yona, you always were the weak link in this family. Stop embarrassing yourself and get out of the way!""I won't move!" Yona declared through her tears. "If you want to hurt Keith,
