In any other manâs case, hearing the Four Beauties express their expectations
would have him jumping at the chance to prove himself.
But for Emmanuel, all he did was smile casually, unfazed by the thick tension
in the air or Yunaâs repeated attempts to bait him.
His real opponents were Teddy Tanner and not the Savage Martial Saint.
With that thought, he dismissed Yuna and ascended the staircase.
He was here to reclaim his sister.
If the head of the Quill family dared to refuse him, he wouldnât hesitate to
unleash chaos.
Yunaâs enchanting eyes flashed with irritation. How can my looks and charm
have no effect on him?
âMr. Lowe! Oh my, what an honor to have you here! You shouldâve given us a

To Emmanuelâs surprise, as he entered the upper banquet hall, an elderly
man with gray hair approached him, flanked by a group of people, all looking
respectful.
âYou must be Old Mr. Quill?â
Emmanuel wasted no time with pleasantries and asked directly.
âIndeed, I am. Iâm Deangelo Quill. Itâs my birthday today!â
Deangelo greeted Emmanuel with a bow, his attitude impeccable.
Emmanuel noticed that Xander and Owen were absent from the scene.
Instead, Larry, who had once lent him money and helped him, was present.
Considering Larryâs past kindness, Emmanuel chose not to explode in anger.
He returned the gesture and said, âThen I wish you a long life, Old Mr. Quill!â
âThank you!â

Deangelo didnât mind that Emmanuel hadnât brought a gift and quickly

invited him in. âMr. Lowe, your presence truly honors me. Please, take a seat!â
âNo need for that!â
Emmanuel didnât waste time and got straight to the point. âIâm here to find my
sister. She was taken by Owenâs men. Old Mr. Quill, please have him return my
sister safely!â
âWhat? Such a thing happened?â
Deangelo looked genuinely shocked.
Behind him, a sizable crowd of guests comprised mostly of the Quill family
and their relatives stood gathered, naturally divided into various factions.
Someone whispered in Deangeloâs ear, deliberately blocking their lips from
view.
However, Emmanuel heard it loud and clear; they were advising Deangelo to
calm him down, and he could guess the intentions behind it.

They certainly hadnât expected him to bargo in unannounced and without
preparation, and they surely didnât claro confront him headâon.

Indeed, after hearing the whispored words, Doangelo immediately smiled
and clasped his hands toward Emmanuel. âMr. Lowe, thank you for coming all
this way. Please, have a drink! Iâll get in touch with my wayward grandson
right away. If he has indeed disrespected your sister, I will not let it slide!â
âSkip the drinks! I need a clear answer from you right away, Old Mr. Quill!â
Emmanuel pressed firmly, unwilling to fall for their diversionary tactics.
Deangelo frowned slightly but could only agree. âAlright,â he said.
He then turned to Larry Quill and instructed, âGet in touch with your brother
immediately!â
Larry grew agitated and responded, âGrandpa, thereâs no guarantee heâll
answer my call. If you truly want to make peace with Mr. Lowe, why donât you have Dad or even yourself reach out to him instead?â

The room grew tense as everyoneâs expressions shifted subtly. Larryâs bold
suggestion left them all taken aback.

Deangelo, now slightly embarrassed, had no choice but to scold him. âHow
dare you speak to me like that! Are you saying I canât even get you to do
what I ask anymore?â
âUnderstood. Iâll give it a try!â Larry had no choice but to comply and called
Owen right then and there.
As expected, the call went unanswered.
Once he reported back, Deangelo turned to Emmanuel with an apologetic smile. âMr. Lowe, Iâm truly sorry! My unruly grandson canât be reached. How
about this? Tomorrow, Iâll host a banquet at my estate. Please, come as my
guest, and if Owen really has your sister weâll ensure sheâs returned to you
unharmed.â
Emmanuelâs brow furrowed as a murderous glint flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, he was no longer just the gynecologist he once wasâhe
couldnât be dismissed with mere words.
âOld Mr. Quill, letâs cut to the chase. Iâve known for a while that the Quill family
was involved in the massacre of the Quillen family. The fact that I havenât
acted against you yet is my way of showing goodwill. But donât mistake that
for weakness.â
With that, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Deangelo by the collar,
pulling him close.
âHow dare you!â
âLet go of him!â
âDo you have a death wish?â
Chaos erupted in the banquet hall as voices rang out, but no one dared to
approach. They had all witnessed Emmanuelâs terrifying power.
Emmanuel cast a cold glance around the room, looking at them as if they

were nothing but worthless trash.

Finally, it was Larry who stepped up, pleading with him. âMr. Lowe, weâve had
our fair share of dealings! Whatever my brother or anyone else has done, itâs
not my grandpaâs fault. If you need a hostage, take me instead!â
âLarry, youâre an honest man, but unfortunately, you were born into a corrupt
family. Itâs hard to stay clean in the mud,â Emmanuel remarked with a sigh.
Out of respect for Larry, he loosened his grip on Deangelo but didnât back
down. âSince youâre offering to take his place, youâll come with me. Tomorrow
morning, Iâll visit the Quill Residence again. If my sister so much as has a
scratch on her, the entire Quill family will pay the price.â
Boom!
As his words landed, Emmanuel struck out with DragonâBreaking Palm, and
the force of the blow sent a wall of the banquet hall crumbling to the ground.
The entire hotel seemed to shake from the impact.

The room erupted into chaos, with guests screaming in terror.
What kind of monstrous power is this?
Is he even human?!

Deangelo wiped the sweat from his brow. He could only nod repeatedly in
fear. âMr. Lowe, we understand,â he said, his voice trembling.
Only then did Emmanuel turn and stride out of the room under the gaze of
everyone present.
Although he didnât take Larry as a hostage, Larry still followed him closely,
both getting into Sageâs car.
Emmanuel knew leaving now was the smart choice. Killing everyone here
wouldnât accomplish anything right away. If he wanted to destroy the Quill
family, he had to handle something else firstâeliminate their allies. Without
their support, the Quills would be powerless and easy to take down.
âEmmanuel, are you dead set on going up against the chairman of the

Chamber of Commerce?â Larry asked bluntly, his boldness showing
Emmanuel glanced at him through the rearview mirror and nodded without
hesitation. âThatâs right. If the Quills are bent on siding with Teddy Tanner
against my family, Iâll have no choice but to uproot the Quill family entirely.â
Larry sucked in a sharp breath, biting his lip before continuing, âAre you sure
you have the power to do that? Letâs be real hereâthe reason you got away
with what you did today is because the Quills werenât prepared. But
tomorrow, if you show up here, itâs a whole different ball game.*
Emmanuel finally looked at him, a slight smirk tugging at his lips. âWhy are
you warning me so openly?â
Larry sighed. âIâm well aware of the mess the Quill family has gotten itself into.
And I also know that many families and factions in Eldoria already have a
deep grudge against us. If this keeps up, itâs only a matter of time before we
face a serious reckoning.â
âGo on,â Emmanuel commanded.

Larry continued. âThe Quill family has already offended half of Eldoria, and
now theyâre stirring up even more trouble in Nuthana, trying to curry favor
with the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce by going after his enemies.
The situationâs spiraling out of control. I know that sooner or later, the Quills
are going to face the consequences.â
Emmanuel nodded slightly, realizing Larry wasnât a fool. It was a shame he
didnât hold much power within the Quill family.
âThe Quills have done a lot of terrible things, but Mr. Lowe, if you do conquer
the family, I hope you wonât punish the innocent along with the guilty,â Larry
pleaded earnestly.
Emmanuel chuckled. âAnd what if I lose tomorrow? Will you plead for me as
well?â
