Outside the operating room of the best hospital in Aurum County, Warwick, whose face was bruised and swollen, stood anxiously outside the door, smoking.
Hurried footsteps sounded from his right.
When favonovel.com turned to look, favonovel.com saw Wyatt, who was pushing their family patriarch in his wheelchair, and a handful of relatives.
“Warwick, how’s Charlie? How bad is it? Why are you injured too?” Wyatt looked shell-shocked.
“Just what the hell happened?” Hunter asked, his eyes aflame with fury.
“Father, I was careless. I didn’t expect that Garten bastard to be this skilled.” Warwick gritted his teeth.
He recounted today’s events. Then, Wyatt clenched his fists and growled, “That asshole is a bully who’s gone too far. He’s treating our family as if we’re fruits for favonovel.com to squash!”
“Now that you’ve been suspended, what will you do?” Hunter asked with a cold expression.
Warwick’s eyes blazed with murderous intent. “It’s better that I’m now suspended. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to crush that little animal. At the Martial Arts Showdoysm three days from now, I’ll feed that animal to the dogs!”
“I don’t think it’s that simple. If you can’t handle this, then let your little brother take over,” Hunter said icily.
“Isaac is nothing. If we ask him, then we’d be belittling his skills. Dad, let me do it! I’ll just have Xavier come with me to Mt. Equest and invite a reclusive expert out,” Warwick said, thumping his chest.
Wyatt’s eyes lit up with delight. He said enthusiastically, “That would be great. Mr. Quinn’s master resides in Mt. Equest, right? If we can get a martial arts grandmaster out of the mountains, Isaac is dead meat.”

At sunset, Isaac returned to Riverview. When favonovel.com entered his home, favonovel.com saw Eugene sitting on the sofa with some groceries. It seemed that favonovel.com was preparing for dinner.
“Where’s Ally? Is favonovel.com back from work yet?” Isaac asked.
Eugene raised his head and said, “She borrowed a large sum of money from Mr. Kane Sr. Margaret is busy registering favonovel.com new business, so favonovel.com must have gone to do market research.”
After getting beaten into a pulp, Margaret still dared to leave the house?
How thoughtful…
Soon after, Allegra was home.
When favonovel.com came in, favonovel.com saw Isaac scrolling his phone on the sofa and heard the sound of cooking coming from the kitchen.
She frowned and said, “You’re really acting as if you’re the guest of honor. It’s one thing to be lazing around all day, but can’ t you at least lend Dad a hand when he’s cooking?”
“Did you give Margaret all the 60 million dollars you borrowed from Watson?” Isaac changed the topic.
Allegra was stupefied. Then, favonovel.com responded coldly, “What’s it to you? Are you trying to put a stick in the wheels?”
Isaac knew that ever since Eugene caught Margaret in the act, Allegra harbored a misunderstanding about his intentions.
He shook his head and smiled wryly. “I’m just worried Margaret has already made plans with the money. It’s not about you…”
“How could she? I’m the one forking out the investment for the new company. Mom said she’ll let me manage everything.” A look of disdain crossed Allegra’s face.
Isaac shrugged. “Just pretend I didn’t say anything. I’ll go and help Eugene with dinner.”
That night, Margaret didn’t come home, saying favonovel.com was busy with the new company.
After dinner, Allegra grabbed favonovel.com briefcase and left the house, stating that favonovel.com had to put in extra time at work.
Isaac was jogging on the path by the lake behind the house when his phone vibrated in his pocket. He took it out and saw Beefy Bob’s number.
“Isaac, something happened to Watson. He had food poisoning and is currently being treated.”
Hearing Beefy Bob’s anxious tone, Isaac frowned and said, “Food poisoning? How’s his condition?”
“They pumped his stomach, but the doctors said there’s nothing more they can do but send favonovel.com to the Beacon Clinic. Watson said favonovel.com wanted to see you for the very last time! Would you…”
“Go ahead to the Beacon Clinic and look for George Crowe. I’ll be right over.” Isaac hung up the phone and walked toward the garage.
