Joseph looked arrogantly at Leona, convinced her ignorance of the Griffin family's power led her to make such naive statements."Mr. Griffin, aren't you worried that the Griffin family might face the same fate as the Stoermer family?" Leona asked.She had retreated to the door but found it would not budge. Her anxiety grew."The Stoermer family? What are you talking about?" Joseph raised an eyebrow, confused.In truth, he was just a distant relative of the Griffin family and was unaware that the Stoermer family had already been eliminated.Seeing Leona's attempts to open the door, Joseph's smile widened.He taunted her. "Leona, you're not getting away. I have people outside keeping watch; you can't open the door."Tonight, you'll stay here with me just like Blair has done so. She was quite cooperative back then. I wonder if you're as skilled as she is."Joseph could not hold back any longer and lunged toward Leona.She screamed in fright and scrambled to avoid him."There's n
In his office, Joseph slowly approached the unconscious Leona.His two men stood guard, smirking as they anticipated him to finish quickly so they could enjoy Leona themselves.Joseph had done that many times before, and they had benefited handsomely from associating with him.Suddenly, footsteps echoed down the corridor.Before they could react, a figure swiftly approached.One of them shouted, "Who's there? Are you looking for trouble? Mr. Griffin has important business tonight. If you don't want to die, get lost!"Just as he said that, his eyes widened in shock.The intruder had reached him and had him by the throat!Matthias tightened his grip and kicked the other guy.Within seconds, both of Joseph's men were lifeless.Matthias kicked the door open with force.Joseph had just reached Leona and was about to strip her when the door was kicked open, causing him to freeze in terror."Damn it! Are you trying to get yourself killed? Don't you know I have important business t
After ending the call, Matthias approached Joseph, towering over him with a murderous gaze."Any last words?"Joseph's heart raced with fear. He was intimidated by Matthias' cold gaze, but he quickly regained his composure."You can't kill me. If you do, the Griffin family and Victor won't let you get away with it!""I won't kill you. That's just going to dirty my hands," Matthias said coldly.Matthias was brimming with murderous intent and needed to release his rage. However, he did not want Leona to suffer anymore and wanted to resolve the issue once and for all.A few minutes later, Alpha arrived with a pale-faced Victor, followed by an anxious middle-aged man."Mr. Veltroni! Tobias! Save me! Kill this man!" Joseph shouted desperately when he saw the familiar figures.Then, he glared at Matthias and said through gritted teeth, "You're done! With Mr. Veltroni and Tobias here, it's over for you! You'll pay for everything you've done!"Yet, before Joseph could finish his threa
Joseph would have sold everything he owned to change the past if there were a time machine.Unfortunately, it was only wishful thinking, and too late for regret."Mr. Lowell! Mr. Lowell! Please spare me! I was blind and acted out of bounds. I swear I'll never do this again!" Joseph pleaded, his forehead smeared with blood from banging it repeatedly.Matthias stared at Joseph, silent and unmoved.The entire time, Joseph had only begged for his own life, never mentioning the family he had put in danger.Matthias scoffed, dismissing Joseph as unworthy of further attention before walking away."Mr. Lowell! Matthias! You can't do this! This isn't fair! I didn't even touch Leona! This isn't right!" Joseph screamed, his voice filled with frustration and fear.Tobias slapped Joseph's face, glancing anxiously in Matthias' direction as he did so."You fool! Do you want the entire Griffin family to suffer for your mistakes? You were doomed once you had those impure thoughts about Mr. Lowe
"Do you think you're all that just because you brought in 15 million dollars? You think you can ignore me, your manager?" Blair snapped, her anger bubbling over.She had thought Leona was bold enough to skip work after getting involved with Joseph.Blair was jealous, believing Leona had somehow latched onto Joseph's influence and was acting superior.However, after confirming Joseph had resigned from his vice president position and left the country, Blair dismissed the thought.While she was still annoyed by Joseph's abrupt departure, she was mixed with a sense of relief and a desire for revenge against Leona.Only Kyle knew of Wealthtrack Financial Corporation's change in ownership, and no one else had access to that information. So, Blair was unaware that Leona's supervisor had been replaced and that Joseph was no longer in the picture.Otherwise, she might have approached Leona with a different attitude.Furthermore, Victor and the Griffin family were embarrassed by both the
Leona felt trapped.Blair had obviously used her absence as leverage, and if Leona did not attend the reunion, she risked losing her job."It's all your fault! Matthias, didn't you say you'd handle the leave for me?" Leona's voice was filled with frustration."Honey, don't be mad. I did arrange your leave, but who knew your college buddy would pull this trick?" Matthias quickly explained, secretly scoffing.A college reunion?Caleb was one of Leona's former classmates, was he not?With Blair suddenly insisting on Leona's attendance, Matthew could tell it was a setup by the two.If someone was eager to dig their own grave, he might as well lend them a helping hand and a shovel."Don't worry, honey. It's just a reunion. It's been three years since you've seen your old friends. It'll be good for you to catch up," Matthias replied, feigning ignorance of the true intentions behind the event.Leona hesitated.Under normal circumstances, she would have been happy to attend a reunion
Caleb and Blair entered the private room, dressed in beautiful outfits that immediately conveyed their success and high status."Hey! Caleb, Blair, you two finally made it! Everyone's been waiting for you to arrive!"As soon as they appeared, some classmates quickly gathered around Caleb and Blair, greeting them warmly."Caleb, I can't believe you've become such a big name in Havenwood's business world in just three years. You're the pride of our class!"Someone praised Caleb, and the change in attitude was noticeable.Before Caleb and Blair arrived, they were mostly peers of similar status; everyone was eager to curry favor with Caleb and Blair."Exactly! My manager heard that I was Caleb's classmate, and he had been trying to get me to introduce him. He's even asked me several times to arrange a meeting."Caleb smiled modestly, addressing the crowd, "Let's not make a fuss. I'm just a vice president. It's nothing to brag about.""Caleb, don't be so humble. Everyone in Havenwoo
"Please don't hold Leona's past against her. I'm just trying to help her by teaching her workplace etiquette. Let's sit and make ourselves comfortable," Blair said.After her words, everyone looked at Leona in different lights—there were glances of ridicule, mockery, sympathy, and surprise."Leona, is that true?" Madeleine asked, her face filled with disbelief."Maddy, don't believe her. I'm working under her now, but I haven't had a job for the past three years due to family issues. I'll explain everything to you later," Leona replied.Then, she refilled everyone's drinks.At first, they were rather polite when Leona served them their drinks. Soon, they considered it normal for her to do that, so they ignored her.Caleb watched the scene with disdain.After getting punched by Matthias, Caleb thought Leona had married someone impressive. However, it seemed Leona's whole family was not doing so well.As he thought about his plan, Caleb secretly scoffed.He intended to make Leon
Clearly, Matthias did not hold back as Roland's body flew far, blood spewing from his mouth even before he hit the ground.His action shocked the Lowell family members, their faces filled with fear. Pierre was the first to kneel, followed quickly by the others."I came here today to ask if you regret your actions and to destroy you, not to negotiate," Matthias stated coldly. "Any chance of reconciliation between the Lowell family and me vanished the moment you drove my parents to their deaths."I said I'd destroy the Lowell family and that East Mountain would become my parents' grave. What? Is the word of the leader of the Legion of the Unbreakable so meaningless to nobodies like you?"Pierre and the others turned pale, finally realizing Matthias truly intended to destroy them."No! The Lowell family has a history that spans thousands of years. It can't end with me! I admit I was foolish back then. I'm willing to pay any price to make amends!" Pierre pleaded."Please calm down. W
On East Mountain, all the guests invited to the Lowell family's gathering stood frozen, their faces blank with shock and disbelief.Ten minutes earlier, they had been confident of the Lowell family's victory, treating the confrontation with Matthias as a mere game. However, the tables had turned—the mountain echoed with the sounds of battle, and the Lowell family's pride, the seemingly invincible Crimson Titans, were being slaughtered by Matthias' forces.Furthermore, Frederick had taken his own life. Pierre, who had always been above everything, thinking he controlled everything, was on his knees, begging Matthias for mercy.That sudden turn of events left them all stunned and trembling in fear. Those quick to flatter the Lowell family and rebuke Matthias wished they could go back in time and slap themselves.Matthias was the leader of the Legion of the Unbreakable, the most feared organization in the international warzone. Everyone finally realized that their actions, including t
"I'll make East Mountain the foundation and the lives of all Lowell family members the grave. You betrayed my parents and my friend. I'll make you atone for your sins for generations to come!"Legion of the Unbreakable! Where are you?" Matthias called out.When Matthias finished speaking, countless powerful and terrifying auras suddenly erupted across East Mountain. The sky seemed to darken, heavy clouds gathering ominously.A group suddenly appeared to the east of the 4000 Crimson Titans warriors. Five figures at the forefront unleashed terrifying auras, charging into the center of the Crimson Titans' formation with unstoppable momentum."We're Lambda, Upsilon, Delta, Eta, and Pi of the Legion of the Unbreakable. We stood by Lord Matthias to destroy our enemies!"To the west, another five figures appeared; behind them, ten more. In other directions, more people emerged."Chi, here with Lord Matthias to annihilate our foes!""Nu, obeying Lord Matthias to eradicate our enemies! T
Just as Frederick's hand was about to strike Wyatt's head, a figure suddenly appeared before him, moving so fast that it caught Frederick off guard. Before he knew it, a sharp pain shot through his chest.Frederick was shocked to find himself flying backward. Not only that, but Matthias was the one who struck him. He could not believe it, his mind buzzing from the surprise and confusion.As Frederick's body slammed hard into the ground, he coughed up blood, his eyes wide with disbelief. It seemed he had been severely injured by just a single kick from Matthias.A deathly silence fell over the crowd, and everyone was stunned by what they had just witnessed. They could not believe their eyes—the leader of the Crimson Titans, a top-tier warrior, had been sent flying by Matthias' kick.Even the 4000 Crimson Titans warriors were momentarily stunned, unable to comprehend how a single kick from Matthias defeated Frederick."I told you I came here to destroy all of you. Did you not take m
Wyatt's eyes were red, his heart heavy with the guilt of a decision that had haunted him for a lifetime."So, the Alistair who died back then was actually my son, Dexter. The real Alistair is Matthias, this man standing before you now! He's the true heir to the Lowell family! I, Wyatt Armstrong, swear on my life that everything I've said is the truth!" Wyatt shouted, his face pleading as he looked toward the assembled family heads.For a moment, the crowd fell silent. Finally, they understood why Matthias claimed to be Alistair.Among the crowd, some family members' eyes flickered with sympathy. They knew Wyatt was telling the truth, but they could not acknowledge it because doing so would mean offending the Lowell family."How ridiculous! What a joke!" Pierre suddenly burst into laughter, then fixed his gaze on Wyatt, his eyes filled with rage."You're nothing but a lowly servant. I never thought you'd betray us and side with outsiders against the Lowell family! You ungrateful do
Matthias moved past Alpha and approached Frederick.His gaze swept over Pierre and the others as he continued speaking, "Since the city's most prominent families are gathered here today, I simply want to recount past events in front of everyone."I didn't expect that as soon as I opened my mouth, you'd all jump to silence me. Are you afraid that the truth will tarnish your reputation?""How dare you! Absolute nonsense!" Pierre suddenly lashed out, his face dark with anger.He glared at Matthias and spoke with added emphasis, "You're nothing but a nobody, impersonating a member of the Lowell family, spouting lies and fear mongering. The truth? I've already told the truth about what happened back then. Do you think the heads of these distinguished families will believe the words of a fraud like you?""Exactly. The tragedy that happened to Oswald and his family scarred us. You're a nobody, repeatedly picking at the Lowell family's wounds with your little tricks. Do you really think a
The Crimson Titans warriors were restless, waiting for Frederick's command to charge en masse, whereas the Lowell family members looked slightly uneasy but still believed they had everything under control.The guests whispered among themselves. They knew Matthias and his subordinates were Supreme-level warriors and were puzzled as to why Frederick, as the leader of the Crimson Titans, could not defeat Matthias' man. In fact, the two men were still standing in place.Suddenly, two figures burst from the crowd—Draco and Gorgon, the other two Supreme-level warriors of the Crimson Titans."Alpha, stand down," Matthias said calmly.Alpha immediately released Frederick but remained in front of Matthias. Though he knew even the three opponents together were no match for Matthias, as a subordinate, he could not allow such insignificant beings to threaten his leader.Unexpectedly, Frederick quickly retreated, stopping Draco and Gorgon from intervening."Matthias, no wonder you're so confi
The Lowell family members scoffed at Matthias' words. With the Crimson Titans army and three Supreme-level warriors on their side, how could they not be assured of victory?"Matthias, stop your clownish behavior. Bring your people out and face the Crimson Titans' fury!" Pierre taunted, exuding an air of complete control."Game over, Matthias. Today, you'll all die here because of your past foolishness!" Frederick sneered, ready to order an attack at any moment.However, Matthias remained indifferent to Pierre and Frederick's words. Instead, he continued speaking as if to himself."Ten years ago, the previous Lowell family head, Oswald, traveled abroad with his wife and child to check on the Crimson Titans, the family's military unit in the warzone," Matthias said. "Little did he know, he was walking into a trap set for him long before."Matthias turned to Pierre, his eyes filled with hatred and anguish. "I bet you didn't expect that he knew it was a trap, but he went without hesit
Matthias and his group slowly ascend the mountain. Behind him were Leona, Danielle, Wyat's family, Alpha, and several warriors from the Legion of the Unbreakable.Meanwhile, the Lowell family and their guests were descending hurriedly, their presence intimidating and their numbers overwhelming.When both groups spotted each other, Matthias remained indifferent. After all, every member of the Lowell family was long dead in his eyes.However, the Lowells were seething with anger. Matthias' bold attempt to ascend the mountain was seen as a disgrace to their family—never before had anyone dared to challenge them like that.Frederick led the Crimson Titans and quickened his pace, fearing Matthias might turn tail and flee upon seeing their formidable force. In an instant, the two groups met, with barely 50 meters between them. Then, Frederick raised his hand, and the Crimson Titans halted immediately, demonstrating their strict discipline.Matthias stopped as well, staring at Frederick
