James couldn’t shake off what Andrew had just reported to him.

Emilio Vargas was helping Joaquin.

But how?

James had grown up knowing Emilio as their family’s personal lawyer. He knew most of his father’s secrets.

He was the only loyal person that James could never take away from his father.

James clenched his fists.

Without wasting another second, he grabbed his phone and dialed Emilio’s number.

The call barely rang before Emilio answered. “Yes, Mr. Villareal.”

James narrowed his eyes. “Mr. Vargas. I hear you’re quite busy these days.”

There was a brief pause on the other end before Emilio replied smoothly. “Well, I’m currently representing a client.”

James scoffed. “I know exactly what you’re doing right now, Mr. Vargas.”

His voice turned cold.

He wasn’t playing anymore.

Emilio remained silent for a moment, then chuckled. “And what is it that you want, Mr.

  • Chapter 246: A Conversation Between Blood

    Joaquin watched the man in front of him in silence. Javier Villareal sat comfortably in a single chair, his gaze locked onto Joaquin like he was reading him—measuring him.This man was his father. Javier Villareal.And this wasn’t their first meeting.Javier cleared his throat. “So, I guess… this is a bit awkward. I didn’t expect you to bring him here already, Jasmine,” he said, tone calm but deliberate.Joaquin’s brow furrowed. “What do you mean by that?”Jasmine shook her head. “I have my reasons. And besides, you’ve been asking about him for a while now. He deserves to know

  • Chapter 245: Going

    “Joaquin, are you really sure about this?” Jasmine asked, her voice laced with worry. “What if you’re just acting on impulse? Please, think this through first.”Joaquin straightened his shirt and stared at his reflection in the mirror. His jaw was tense, his gaze unflinching.“I have to do this, Jasmine. If the Villareals really have ties to the Black Viper Society, I need to know. More than that, I need to meet our other brother,” he said firmly.Jasmine let out a heavy sigh. She understood her brother’s resolve, but it didn’t ease the gnawing worry in her chest. Especially now that he was planning to face their father—a man she hadn’t seen in years.“Then I’m coming with you,” she decla

  • Chapter 244: Who was he?

    When Joaquin first discovered the power within the ring passed down to him, he felt nothing but awe. It made him feel special, chosen by his ancestors to inherit something sacred.But now… that feeling had changed.He twisted the ring around his middle finger with his thumb, absentmindedly, as the car carried him home.His thoughts were adrift again.If the Villareals truly had ties to the Black Viper Society… when did it start? Was it just his father who was involved? Or did it go even further, back to the roots of their bloodline?Was that why they possessed such secret powers?Joaquin’s chest tightened just thinking about what kind of family he might have co

  • Chapter 243: One of them

    Joaquin returned to the temple in silence. His mind churned, restless—unable to shake the face of the man he had fought.That man… was his brother.And maybe he was the same voice George Beckham once spoke to in secret, back when the Villareals began to move their pawns across the board.Rick walked beside him, his brows furrowed. “You’ve been quiet since the fight. What did your enemy say to you?”Joaquin let out a slow breath. “There’s something you and Mr. Suarez need to know.”Rick’s expression shifted. He could feel the weight in Joaquin’s voice—this wasn’t just aftermath. Joaquin wasn’t just shaken… he was changed.Rick nodded. “Let’s go directly to him.”

  • Chapter 242:The Dragon Gate Trap

    The night air was heavy with mist as Joaquin approached the ancient arch of the Dragon Gate.Perched at the edge of the northern cliffs, the structure stood half-swallowed by vines and time—a forgotten place that once marked the border between warrior clans before peace had been brokered by the Tiger Council.Now, its silence thrummed with tension—as if the earth itself remembered the bloodshed.Joaquin wore no armor. Only the jade amulet around his neck and a simple dark cloak. His steps were soundless, his aura coiled and subdued, ready.He was alone, at least in appearance.Behind him, hidden in the shadows along the ridge, Rick crouched with two of Miguel Suarez’s most trusted scouts. They weren’t

  • Chapter 241: The Order

    Joaquin stood silently beneath one of the archways, arms crossed, eyes fixed on the faint scar left by the Black Viper Society.The viper symbol had been removed, but its presence still lingered. He didn’t need to touch the stone to feel the intensity of murder that had taken place here, and they had erred gravely. The victim hadn’t been just another challenger, but a member of the Council.Their first move had been made. Now that his Flame had appeared, their adversary would not stop.“Joaquin.”He paused mid-thought as he heard a voice behind him. Turning, he saw Rick entering the chamber.“The Council’s requesting you.”Joaq
