After finishing her words, Queenie hopped into her Ferrari and drove off. Brittany squinted her
gorgeous eyes and said, âIf Iâm not mistaken, this Lord Bale of Hydra Group is
interested in our Lush Cosmetics.â Alex huffed. âHe can dream on.â
Brittany said, âHydra Group is quite powerful in Michigan, but theyâre just powerful in the underworld,
they donât have much status within the business world.
He may be the president of SCBA, but many large
families look down on him, they donât even deign put on their courteous pretense⦠Oh, by the way, our
Lush Cosmetics has gained a lot of popularity clue to Zendayaâs commercials. Yet a lot of people still
think
weâre just easy meat, they think they can overpower us as long as they want to.
We may be up against Hydra
Group this time, but we might have to face a super large family next time. It just depends on how much
it
would benefit them.â Alex closed his eyes and pondered for a while, then said, âAlright, Iâll accept his
invitation then. Letâs see if
this Lord Bale has what it takes to take Lush Cosmetics from us.â
Brittany said, âI have the same opinion too. We should face any problem head on. Or else, we wonât be
able
to know if theyâd try to pull dirty tricks on us later on.â Alex replied, âIâll just go alone.â
Brittany said, âIâm the one that heâs inviting, so how could I not go?â
Just then, Maya walked out of the company and stared at Alex with a gentle gaze for several seconds.
She
said, âCount me in!â
Waltz said, âThey said that only three people can go with an invitation, I think I should go!â Maya shook
her head. âWeâd be at a better advantage if I were to go.â Waltz was startled, she said, âWhat do you
mean?â Maya only smiled but didnât say a word. Alex explained, âMaya is already an Advanced-Mystic
ranked martial artist. Waltz, I already told you that
Maya was going to surpass you sooner or later.
You can only blame yourself for being lazy.â Waltz felt abnormally upset. When she first got to know
Maya, she was just an average person. To her surprise, Maya had already
surpassed her in such a short time. She shot Alex a dirty glare, as if she was suggesting that he must
have given Maya a special treatment.
Alex glared back at her and said, âThen itâs settled. Waltz, Michelle, you two should take the small
energy
pill that Iâve invented recently later in the afternoon. You should try and train more to hone your skills to
the
next level. Donât worry about anything else for now.â

At the same time, Queenie had just gone back to Hydra Group. She started crying as soon as she saw
her
godfather, Lord Bale.
âGodfather, those people from Lush Cosmetics are too cocky and despicable. I want to
bring someone to kill them!â
Lord Bale was in his sixties as of now, his heard was completely white.
However, his face was still brimming with energy. He was holding two steel eggs in his hands, turning
them
with a grunting sound. His gaze turned cold as soon as he saw the slap mark on Queenieâs face. âGod
damn
it!â He paused and said, âBut those are just insignificant people. I have invited many skilled martial
artists to the
banquet tonight, so I canât afford to keep them waiting.
Iâd like to see if my title as Lord Bale of Hydra Group
still works. If it doesnât, Iâll be sure to snap them back to reality.â Queenie wiped her forced tears.
âThank you for calling the shots for my sake, Godfather.â
Lord Bale waved his hand. âRun along now, Iâll be sure to avenge you with a payback of a hundred
times
tonight.â
Queenie hummed in agreement. Thinking of Michelle, she couldnât wait to grind Michelleâs bones into
ashes. Before they knew it, it was already five in the afternoon. The whole Phoenix Mount Diner of
Michigan had
been reserved for this very day. Lord Bale was the host of the banquet and invited his martial artist
friends who were going to represent Hydra Group in the tournament tomorrow.
Hence, the scale of the banquet was the greatest in the entire restaurant. With loud cheering, they
were eating and toasting joyously with one another. Queenie, on the other hand, was keeping an eye at
the entrance, waiting for Alex and the others to arrive. After waiting for quite a while, she felt that those
three trash would chicken out.
When the time came, she
could bring along some of Hydra Groupâs underlings and teach them a lesson. Just then, she noticed
three people with the corner of her eyes, they were Alex, Brittany and Maya. Her expression
immediately turned cold. âSo you people really did come to dig your own graves! This is
perfect. Since youâre here now, youâd be a fool to think weâd let you leave.â
