The party continued, and although Sophia questioned why Dylan didn't use that opportunity to throw Rachel and Tyler out, she couldn't help but conclude that Dylan held no grudge against them.

Micheal climbed up stage and gently hit the head of the microphone to get people's attention. "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry for the small interruption that occured some minutes ago; it has been handled and we saw that it was just a misunderstanding." He paused, taking a step forward before continuing.

    Rachel, who stood by the side, smiled slyly, "Oh, this is going to be nice!" She was so confident that Nal would beat Antonio to a stupor."You think? I've never really seen Nal in a fair fight before," Tyler said, causing Rachel to pause for a second, thinking that he might be right.This was the first time Tyler actually thought wisely, and it made Rachel turn to him before asking,"He's not good in combat?""I don't know that! The thing is, I've not actually seen him in combat," Tyler said, causing Rachel to feel immensely worried.She paused for a second, wondering why Dylan did not fight Nal himself—it all started to make some sense.Dylan knew that Nal's pride would not let him turn down the fight, so he intentionally made him accept it, knowing that Antonio was better in combat than Nal."We need to do something. I do not want to bend a knee to Los Lobos! God forbid I let that happen!" Rachel said, causing Tyler to arch his brows, asking, "What can we possibly do?""We need to

    Antonio, who was standing by the corner, stood upright; he had his hand crossed in front of him as he moved his neck sideways as if trying to pop his neck.Nal briefly shifted his gaze to Antonio. "You are disrespecting me by telling me to fight Antonio. I'll beat him in a heartbeat!""If you're not so scared, then why don't you just show us instead of whining?" Antonio cut in, causing Nal to scoff before stepping down from the stage; he popped his finger and said,"What happens when I beat Antonio?" He asked, deciding to set the stakes."If Antonio is successful in beating you up, then you and your men will have to bend the knee to him and be under him!" Dylan said."And if I beat Antonio up?" Nal inquired."If you do that, then Antonio would bend the knee to you and so would his men and even your headquarters that they have successfully acquired would be returned back to your group." Dylan said, causing Nal to arch his brows; it wasn't until this moment that he realized that the hea

    Just in the moment, a gentle touch on his shoulder caught his attention, causing him to quickly turn only for his eyes to fall on one of the spectators."I think I can apply some pressure on the wound! That could prevent more blood loss." The lady said, causing Dylan to quickly let go of Rosanna but he didn't fail to make sure that she was in a comfortable position.Shortly after leaving Rosanna in the hands of the lady, he swiftly turned to Nal, Tyler, and Rachel—at the same time, he casually checked through his phone messages for any important text."I just got a message from Antonio. The mentioned trying to reach you but failed." He read the first line from Micheal,"He asked to inform you that they've taken down the leader of the Nalson group—Lathel. And now, he and some of his men are heading straight to the banquet!" He informed.Dylan immediately shoved his phone into his pocket and took some steps closer to Rachel and the two men with her."Stop! Don't come any further." Nal s

    The lieutenant was pissed; he gritted his teeth and demanded, "You have one last chance to apologize to the lady or the bullet is going through your head!""Do you think this is a joke, or do you think that I cannot pull the trigger if I want to?" The lieutenant asked, feeling insulted by Dylan.He quickly turned to Rosanna, who seemed completely frightened. "Look how scared you're making your lady feel. Or wait, you don't want to apologize to another lady in front of her! Is that it?" He asked, but Dylan didn't respond."Dylan, please, just listen to him! I really do not want anything to happen!" Rosanna pleaded, but Dylan was stubborn."Stay back and stay out of this. You only need to be safe, believe me... I have everything under control," he said, trying to reassure her that he had everything in control."Dylan... I don't think these people are here to play! Haven't you heard of the Nelson gang before? They're not so strong but very merciless, and that's what makes them feared by

    "There's no need for y'all to be afraid yet! Choi family will soon be taking control over the ciy and the choi family is not a fan of sterling corporation like most of you..." He paused on emphasis,"Once they're in control, any anyone still associated with sterling corporation would automatically be ab enemy!" He informed causing the small whisper in the hall to immediately turn to loud chatters."Calm down! Calm down! There's no need for the argument yet!" He paused and took a step forward before continuing,"Fortunately for you all, the leader of choi family is merciful! He is ready to give everyone in chance and this is what I call—A call for repentance!" He said, letting out a dry awkward laugh."Choi family is giving every single person here a chance, if you're willing to abandon sterling corporation and corporate with choi family, you will be spared from the wrath of choi family" Nal said, the leader of Nalson group informed causing Dylan to pause for a second, because choi's a

    Dylan gazed at his phone screen, contemplating whether or not he needed to call Micheal on this matter. After much deliberation, he finally dialed her number. "Hello!" "Sir... Do you need any assistance?" She asked, wondering why Dylan would call her just as the banquet started."I need you to quickly do some research on the Nalson gang for me. I might have underestimated their intelligence!" He said."Okay, sir. What exactly should I be looking for while investigating them?" Micheal inquired."I want you to find out who the leader of the Nalson gang has been communicating with lately and what the plan is about. I need this information now!" Dylan ordered before ending the call.As soon as Dylan ended the call, she immediately started the investigation.Meanwhile, the party continued with no interruptions, but Dylan didn't fail to keep a good eye on Tyler and Rachel—unfortunately, just like he suspected, they started acting suspicious.He quickly took out his phone and checked his t
