Chapter 1993

Mario shouted, “Now, come over here and get on your knees!”

Ronald trembled from pure rage and humiliation. Forcing a man to kneel was no different from slapping him across the face and spitting in his mouth. Nevertheless, with the situation pressing down on him, refusing was not an option.

He told himself that a real man knew when to bow and when to stand tall. Andrew had already caused him enough misery, and he could not let that bastard’s games cost him his life as well.

“Fine!” he ground out, forcing the words past his teeth.

Mario wore a smug, mocking smile as he spread his legs apart and waited for Ronald to kneel before him.

Ronald bent his knees slightly, doing mental gymnastics and telling himself it was just like giving respect to this man’s grave in advance, so what did it matter?

Then, out of nowhere, a scream ripped through the air outside.

Ronald’s people and the Driscoll family forces were simultaneously alarmed and confused by the commotion.

The next moment, the Driscoll family soldiers burst in, shouting angrily, “Don’t believe Ronald’s lies. His reinforcements have arrived, and they’re attacking our men!”

Mario exploded with rage. “Ronald, you lying piece of shit, how dare you play games with us!”

The other two martial kings also roared in anger. “You bastard, you tricked us? Go to hell!”

Ronald stepped back, his mind completely blank with confusion.

What the hell was happening?

He had genuinely been about to surrender, so how could this possibly be a trick?

Moreover, where were these supposed reinforcements coming from? He did not have any backup forces.

“Mr. Potter, we’ve come to help you!”

“We underground forces will never be slaves! Kill!”

The shouts rang out, and Ronald heard someone specifically calling his name. Then, he watched in shock as Logan charged in with just a single sword.

Ronald was completely baffled and shouted angrily, “Logan, what the hell are you doing?”

Logan was frantically attacking the Driscoll family soldiers while shouting back, “Andy sent me to reinforce you! He said he’d definitely help you wipe out all the Driscoll family forces!”

Then, he yelled, “Kill them! Kill every last Driscoll family dog!”

The Driscoll family’s elite fighters could no longer restrain themselves, and all attacked at once. A new round of brutal fighting erupted throughout the place.

Mario roared as he threw a vicious punch directly at Ronald’s skull, his strike incredibly ruthless and precise.

Ronald had no choice but to fight back savagely, finally releasing the pent-up rage in his chest.

Between blows, Ronald shouted, “Logan, did Andrew really have a change of heart and send you to save me?”

Back-to-back with Ronald, Logan laughed. “That’s right, Ronald. Didn’t expect Mr. Lloyd to be so loyal to you, huh? The moment you were in trouble, I came running!”

Ronald felt a wave of emotion. “Seems I was wrong to doubt Andrew all this time, thinking he was setting me up. Turns out, when I’m in real danger, he’s the only one who shows up. Logan, you’re a true brother. Tell me… How many men did you bring?”

Logan answered honestly, “Ah, well, you know I’m loyal, so of course I came to save you. But… It’s a bit embarrassing… It’s just me. I came alone.”

Ronald froze, almost soiling himself. “Just you? No one else?”

Logan nodded. “Yeah, just me. And to be honest, Mr. Lloyd said the enemy’s too strong, so you should fight while retreating and get out of here first. We’ll deal with the Driscolls later.”

Ronald was furious. “You son of a bitch, if it’s just you, why did you make such a huge commotion when you arrived?”
