Outside Winston Mansion

The night air stirred as a matte-black Cadillac Escalade rolled up the driveway of the Winston Mansion. The engine gave a low growl as it came to a stop near the front entrance, the headlights casting long shadows on the red carpet.

The back door opened.

A heavy boot hit the ground.

And then came the man himself — Mr. Stanwell Wood.

Clad in a custom-fitted dark coat stretched over broad shoulders, Stanwell was built like a war tank. His eyes were sharp, his jawline carved from granite, and that signature smirk sat on his face like he owned the entire damn city.

Behind him, three massive bouncers stepped out, dressed in sleek black and moving like shadows.

The head of security near the door froze for a second — then lit up like a kid at a concert.

“Oh my God… Sir! Mr. Stanwell!” the security guy gushed, almost tripping over his words. “It’s an honor—man, it’s such an honor. I watched every match you had. That one in Mexico—where you broke that guy’s jaw and col

  • Chapter 484

    The six killers who had charged at Jaden wailed in pain, their screams echoing through the deserted restaurant as they scrambled backward, clutching their mangled hands and arms. One fluid motion from Jaden Rift had annihilated half of Nightreaper’s assault team, leaving the rest in stunned terror.But Nightreaper was not one to be deterred easily. The moment he saw an opening, he lunged forward, his massive frame charging like a battering ram. He clenched his fist with deadly intent, and the sound of cracking bones filled the air—a sharp, eerie, firework-like noise that sent a shiver down the spine of everyone watching.Jaden’s eyes narrowed, sharp and calculating, as he fixed his gaze on Nightreaper through the cacophony of crackling joints.“It’s the Firecracker,” Jaden said, his voice calm but edged with awe. “Every joint in his body makes that crackling sound when he exerts power. The strength compounds with every snap. Truly a fancy technique… and incredibly dangerous.”Nightrea

    Miracle Avenue was undergoing renovations, its usual hum of chatter and clinking cutlery replaced by the faint echo of hammers and construction equipment. The restaurant remained closed to the public, giving the place an eerie quiet, punctuated only by the footsteps of those moving within.Nightreaper strode into the restaurant with his nine subordinates, their heavy boots echoing ominously against the polished floor. Each man carried himself with deadly precision, exuding the confidence of trained killers accustomed to getting what they wanted.At a table by the window, Jaden Rift sat leisurely, a perfectly cooked steak in front of him. He cut through it slowly, almost lazily, as if he were completely unconcerned about the armed men approaching him. Morix Sable stood silently nearby, his presence calm but imposing, like a shadow ready to strike at the slightest provocation.On the floor, Brutal Flame and his men lay motionless, groaning in pain, each monitored closely by Jack and his

    “I’ll gather thousands from Okade,” Nemesis Thorne said, voice hard as iron. “We will crush Jaden Rift and Morix Sable under our numbers. Let them see what happens when the Ortega family moves.”Nightreaper did not mirror Nemesis’s fury. He stayed low and measured, the kind of man who feared waste more than battle. “We could,” he said slowly, “but you must remember there is that chief training soldiers in Ironvale City now.”Nemesis narrowed his eyes. “You mean that Northern chief? That won’t stop us.”Nightreaper shook his head. “It should. If we make a major move here and draw that chief’s attention, we risk bringing down the heavy hand of the state. Remember Black Monarch. Remember Kent Duvan. Those were messy losses. We cannot afford to repeat them.”Nemesis’s jaw tightened. The old wounds stung. He had never liked the idea that someone else could interfere with the Ortega family’s reach, but Nightreaper was right. A direct assault that attracted national forces would cost them fa

    Nightreaper stood tall before Nemesis Thorne, his massive frame casting a shadow across the room. His voice was low and steady, but it carried a hint of unease. “There’s a problem, boss.”Nemesis sat lounging in his chair, a cigarette dangling lazily between his fingers. He took a slow drag, exhaling smoke in a thin stream as his eyes narrowed. “What’s wrong?” he asked, his tone deceptively calm.“Both Ponytail and Brutal Flame are in trouble,” Nightreaper said flatly.Nemesis’s frown deepened, his gaze sharpening. “Wait a damn minute. Weren’t Brutal Flame and his men supposed to get rid of Elias Verrick and film his death? What the hell did he get himself into?”Nightreaper’s eyes were grim. “Ponytail and his men never returned. We’ve lost all contact with them.”Nemesis sat up straighter, his cigarette pausing halfway to his lips. “Then where’s Elias Verrick?”“I already had someone check,” Nightreaper replied. “Elias Verrick is alive and safe at home. Which means Ponytail and his c

    Jaden moved like lightning, his every strike precise and devastating. Each kick, punch, and sweep sent Brutal Flame’s henchmen flying or crashing into walls. The sound of groans, cracks, and thuds filled the office as one by one, they fell to the floor, writhing in pain. Despite being outnumbered, they were no match for Jaden.It was over almost as quickly as it had begun. Less than two minutes had passed, and all thirty men lay scattered across the room, moaning and clutching their injuries. Their coordinated attack had turned into a complete disaster.Selena, having seen Jaden’s abilities before, remained calm, though her heart still skipped a beat. She had long since learned not to underestimate him. But for Vane, Nora, Fera, and the group of executives, the sight was almost unreal. They stared at Jaden in disbelief.“This… this guy is way too skilled,” Vane muttered under his breath. “How can one person take down thirty men like that?”Selena rushed over to Jaden, concern etched a

    The moment Brutal Flame finished his words, the thirty men behind him raised their machetes, iron bars, and clubs, and stormed forward like a pack of rabid wolves. In an instant, the office descended into chaos—the crash of shattering glass, the splintering of wood, and the metallic clang of weapons striking furniture filled the air. Desks toppled over, chairs shattered, and stacks of documents scattered like snow in a storm.Employees screamed as they scrambled out of harm’s way, some ducking under tables, others rushing for the exits, their faces pale with terror. The once-pristine office now looked like a battlefield.Vane trembled, his fists clenched, though his voice quivered with both rage and helplessness. “You bl**dy hooligans! How dare you wreck my company!?” he roared, but his anger was almost drowned out by the deafening noise of destruction.Brutal Flame cut through the chaos like a predator, his eyes burning with cruelty and a wicked grin plastered across his face. “I won
