Junior's heart skipped a beat, excitement evident in his expression. "Where are they? How's Laurel? Let's go right away!"

But Timothy wiped his brow with a sigh. "They... they're already dead."

"What!?" Junior frowned, a sense of unease creeping over him. He glanced worriedly in the direction Rosemary had left, then thought for a moment. "Let's go see!"

A few minutes later, in the car, Timothy drove while saying, "Commander, I know you two argued fiercely just now, but Ms. Jackson... she shouldn't be that kind of woman. Is there a misunderstanding?"

Junior took a deep breath. "I don't want to believe it either, but... isn't the fact staring us in the face?"

Timothy wanted to say something more but Junior cut him off coldly. "Don't worry about me and her. Just drive faster, finding Laurel is more urgent!"

"Alright!" Timothy accelerated and then continued, "Commander, don't worry too much, Laurel will be fine!"

Then he added, "Oh, and earlier, when I interrogated that Alberta, he was so scared that he let slip some information... He said there's a rumor that the thugs who took Laurel might be Clark Larson's people! But before I could ask more, he passed out."

"Clark Larson?" A cold, murderous intent flashed in Junior's eyes. "Investigate this person thoroughly for me!"

"Yes!" Timothy nodded instantly.

Forty minutes later, Timothy parked the car at a rundown salvage yard.

Looking around, they saw SWAT officers in uniform gathered around a small car not far away.

"Hello, sir! Which one of you is Captain Gonzalez?" A police officer in his fifties hurried over, his tone extremely respectful.

"I am!" Timothy responded solemnly.

The man raised his head and chest, saluting crisply. "Iris Toby from Keklia Town Police Station, reporting to Captain Gonzalez!"

An hour ago, he had been leading a special meeting at the station. But then his superior suddenly sent an urgent message—a high-profile figure's daughter from the Shadowstorm Legion had been abducted! Right here in Keklia Town!!

The leader of the Shadowstorm Legion, none other than the legendary King of Westcrest, Junior Anderson, had personally forged this iron-blooded corps! Since its inception, they had fought in countless battles, large and small, without ever tasting defeat. They had left all enemy nations in fear!

Yet now, someone had dared to kidnap the daughter of an important figure of the Shadowstorm Legion! Was there anything more terrifying than this!?

"How's the situation?" Timothy asked as he walked with Junior towards the car.

"Yes, captain. Four assailants were all found with their throats slit, and no useful clues were left at the scene," Iris Toby reported, glancing at Junior involuntarily.

Though Junior remained silent, Iris sensed a regal aura about him, making him feel small and insignificant. Waves of shock and speculation surged through Iris's mind. 'This man was likely the rumored King of Westcrest, Junior Anderson! If his guess was correct... dear heavens, this was catastrophic!'

Soon, the three arrived at the car. Junior bent over and entered. Four men were slumped in their seats. Their throats slashed open and their upper bodies soaked in blood. When Junior saw a small girl's shoe left on the back seat, an overwhelming aura of vengeance radiated from him. A chilling atmosphere was casted over the surroundings, leaving everyone in their police uniforms shivering with fear, struggling to breathe.

"Captain Gonzalez, is he..." After swallowing hard, Iris asked cautiously.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't," Timothy replied sharply. "The less you know, the better for you!"

"Understood," Iris replied solemnly.

"Check!" Junior stepped out of the car, his voice cold. "Identify these four individuals as quickly as possible. Review all their recent contacts thoroughly. Particularly focus on a man named Clark Larson! Investigate him thoroughly!"

'Clark Larson? The Underground King of Keklia Town?' Iris recalled.

"Received, Commander!" Iris nodded repeatedly, refraining from further questions.

"You handle this personally!" Junior added, looking directly at Iris. "And ensure that no information about us leaks out!"

With that command issued, the entire system of the Keklia Town Police Station sprang into high gear, placing the entire town under strict martial law.

Junior remained silent. He gripped the small girl's shoe tightly, his eyes bloodshot and filled with determination.

    "You...you have no idea what we Maldonados are capable of," Omar continued, taking a deep breath. "I promise you'll regret this. No one has ever dared challenge the Maldonado family like this in Keklia Town. Not just you two, but Rosemary and her entire family will suffer...""You really are an idiot," Timothy sighed, shaking his head. He couldn't help but recall battlefield scenes where the Commander, alone with his battle sword, left a trail of bodies, turning the place into a hellish landscape.Such power was far beyond what a small family like the Maldonados could withstand. Truly, ignorance was bliss.Just then, Junior's phone rang. Seeing Rosemary's name, his breath caught.Guilt from his earlier harsh words towards her surged through him. Taking a deep breath, he answered softly, "Rosemary.""Where are you? Any news about Laurel?" Rosemary's anxious voice came through the line."Rosemary, don't worry. Laurel is safe now," Junior reassured her."You found Laurel?" Rosemary's voi

    After hanging up the phone with Nicolas, Junior pulled out his own phone and dialed Iris."Commander!" Iris answered after just one ring."Bring some people to clean up the club," Junior said sternly. "Also, meet me at the Maldonado Manor in three hours.""Uh?" Iris was momentarily stunned but quickly replied, "Understood!"After hanging up, Junior turned and headed for the door, with Timothy following behind, carrying the unconscious Omar.Meanwhile, outside the most upscale private hospital in Qiekery, a Mercedes-Benz was parked not far from the entrance.Inside the car were Nicolas, the Maldonado family's butler, two strong bodyguards and Laurel, who was lying unconscious in the back seat. Nicolas had just finished his call and sat in his seat, his face dark and menacing, his eyes like blades, and a murderous aura radiating from him.It had been almost thirty years since he had been this angry. In Keklia Town, someone dared to challenge him, Nicolas! It was outrageous. He had alrea

    “Great. That little bastard should feel honored—her heart will be transplanted into Master Omar’s daughter,” someone nearby sneered.At those words, Omar’s spirits lifted. His daughter had been waiting nearly two months for this surgery. The Maldonado family had exhausted every option, and at last, there was progress.As for Laurel’s life, Omar couldn’t care less. To him, people were simply born into different stations. Allowing this low-life’s heart to save his daughter was, in his view, already a mercy."Congratulations, Master Omar!" two rich young men exclaimed simultaneously."Haha, thank you!" Omar laughed heartily. He raised his glass and drank it all in one go.Boom! At that moment, a gust of wind shattered the private room into splinters, sending wood fragments flying."Ah..." The girls screamed in unison."Damn, who dares cause trouble here? Are they tired of living?" The tall guy was startled. He got up and walked towards Junior and Timothy. "Where did you losers come from?

    Bam! Bam! Bam! Tables, chairs, and benches around exploded; windows on the walls shattered into pieces, and the bar counter collapsed with a crash. Clark, like a cannonball, was thrown out, smashing through the wall behind him and crashing onto the cement floor outside."So strong." He managed to utter a few words before a large amount of blood spurted out, his body convulsing a few times before going limp.He never imagined that he, the underground king of Keklia Town, revered by thousands, would one day lose his life because of a little girl! If given another chance, he probably wouldn't have taken on that job from the Maldonado family! But life had no 'ifs'. Karma had its retribution, and everything had its consequences!Splurt! Junior, blood rushing to his heart, suffered even more. He spat out a mouthful of blood, his aura also weakening."Ah..." Junior fell to his knees, tears streaming down his face, crying out into the sky with a heart-wrenching cry. 'In the end, was I too lat

    Azure Sky Dining, one of the most upscale restaurants in Keklia Town. Normally, only the wealthy or influential dine here—definitely not a place for ordinary white-collar workers. Today, starting from the afternoon, the restaurant turned away all walk-in customers with the reason that Clark was hosting his birthday party here tonight.Initially grumbling patrons quickly shut their mouths upon hearing Master Larson's name and hurriedly left. Clark, known as Master Larson, was the king of the Keklia Town underworld! Not only ordinary people but even the prominent families of Keklia Town treated him with utmost respect.By 6 pm, the restaurant lobby was bustling with lively chatter. Apart from the underworld figures of Keklia Town, representatives from various major families also sent generous gifts. However, to avoid suspicion, they left promptly after presenting their offerings.At six-and-eight, a Maybach pulled up at the restaurant's entrance. Shortly after, Clark, surrounded by his

    "Which hospital? What's the doctor's name?" Junior paused slightly before continuing, "Tell me everything."Rosemary straightforwardly recounted all the information she knew to Junior.A few minutes later, Junior spoke up, "I'll go handle this. Just wait for me at home."Rosemary nodded. For some reason, she felt Junior was unusually calm and full of masculine resolve at this moment, which gave her a sense of security.But before he could take two steps, a large group of cars stormed into the narrow street, roaring towards Rosemary's house. Dozens of black-clad bodyguards armed with knives exuded a murderous aura."It's that man who disabled Mr. Morley. Kill him!" shouted a man with a broken arm.Rosemary's face went pale. "Oh no, the Morley family's people are here.""This is bad," Harley was extremely nervous, her legs trembling."Timothy, handle them," Junior stared coldly at them."Just right, time to stretch my muscles," Timothy's eyes flashed with bloodlust as he shot out like a
