Larry chuckled, and Martha joined in the laughter.

Their smiles appeared eerie to Bryce. What were his younger brother and this daughter laughing about?

Larry patted Bryce's shoulder. "Are you puzzled?"

Bryce remained silent. He sensed that something was amiss. The wine was tainted!

Sighing heavily, he sat down and looked at the two. "Why?"

Bryce knew he was doomed tonight.

Larry was also a legend. Adding the grandmaster-level Martha to the mix, he couldn't escape tonight.

Still, he couldn't fathom the situation!

He found it reasonable for Martha to want to kill him. Ever since Mark was born, he hadn't cared much about her. Girls were meant to marry someday and join another family. After Martha died, her tombstone would bear the name of another family. Only sons were true descendants.

He had always been aware of Martha's resentment towards him. But what reason did his younger brother have?

Larry raised his wine glass. "Brother, you're old and feeble. Martha resents you and w

    Larry had actually teamed up with Martha, who was now seeking revenge against him.Bryce couldn't accept this outcome. Using the chair for support, he shifted sideways."Hmm?" Larry sneered. "Even poisoned, you still struggle like this? Too bad it's futile. Tonight, you will definitely die! Don't worry, I'll take care of the Pentra family! As for that Innova Group? Hmph! They will die too!""Larry! Hold on!" Bryce quickly raised his hand. "The Innova Group has a legend, with profound inner strength. You may not be able to defeat him alone, but if we join forces—""Uncle! Kill him!" Martha didn't want to give Bryce a chance to negotiate. They had to kill Bryce tonight! If Bryce escaped, what if he neutralized the poison and came back to retaliate?"Good!" Larry laughed heartily and rushed toward Bryce. The two clashed fists, and Bryce was sent flying out of the dining room.If he weren't poisoned, he could have battled Larry for 300 hundred rounds, but now he could barely catch hi

    At Westlake Hotel.Eric and Sylvia had just returned from dinner.Their efforts in Westlake City had yielded some preliminary results.If the Pentra family remained inactive for a few more days, they planned to return to Salt City.It had been about ten days since they left, and the couple missed Yvette dearly.Back in Salt City, they made it a ritual to embrace Yvette every evening after work.Sylvia had just finished a video call with Amelia. While being away from home, this was the only way they could see Yvette from afar.After ending the call, Sylvia stretched lazily, her figure becoming increasingly alluring.Eric swallowed hard, thinking of something to say, when the phone in the living room rang.Sylvia teased, "Could it be room service? A beautiful lady at the door? Eric, did you ever order such a service when you were alone outside? Enduring the long nights must have been tough, right? I bet you didn't believe me…"Eric rolled his eyes.He noticed his wife was beco

    Soon, John brought a silver needle case over. Seeing Bryce, he was also greatly startled. "Mr. Johnson, did you kill him?!"That's how it appeared to John. Otherwise, why would Bryce be there?He admired Eric and Sylvia even more now—one had killed the young heir of the Pentra family, and the other had killed the head of the Pentra family.They were peerless ruthless individuals, but he liked such ruthlessness.Mark and Bryce were both dead, so the heavy burden pressing down on the Westlake distributors' heads was completely lifted. From now on, they didn't need not fear the Pentra family.'Serves them right!' John's heart was already setting off fireworks. Such a good thing had to be properly celebrated!Eric glanced at John and said, "He came to us on his own. I don't know what happened. When I saw him downstairs, he was like this."As he spoke, he opened the silver needle case and began treating Bryce's injuries.Although Bryce was at death's door, Eric wasn't fazed. At wors

    Bryce recounted the events with a certain eloquence. The revelation concerning the death of Mark and Sylvia's role as merely a catalyst, with the true perpetrator being Martha, left Eric dumbfounded. He had sensed that something was amiss—the reason Bryce hadn't immediately sought retaliation was precisely this revelation.Eric sighed deeply, contemplating the unpredictable nature of life. Who could have foreseen that Bryce, once at the pinnacle of his power, would overnight become this wretched figure?How could one swallow the bitter pill of being betrayed by those closest to them?"The intelligence reports suggest that your family boasts two legends: yourself and your younger brother, Larry," Eric remarked.Bryce's eyes widened in surprise."You knew about that?" he exclaimed, considering the possibility that Eric might also hail from an aristocratic family. After all, among the aristocratic families he was familiar with, there was one surnamed Hernandez—a name with significa

  • I Married a Beautiful Boss After the Breakup   Chapter 1447

    These were the things Eric wanted to know."The Hernandez family is just like our Pentra family," Bryce said. "This Hernandez family is located in the Lazzla area. Judging by your appearance, you're probably not from the aristocratic Hernandez family. As for the Montgomerys and Hernandezes in King City, I've heard of them. However, I'm not too clear about the relationship between the two Hernandez families."Although there are connections between aristocratic families, it's not too common. Simply put, everyone's strength is about the same, and each minds their own business. No one interferes with anyone else."If I can survive and you want to meet someone from the aristocratic Hernandez family, I can introduce you!"Eric shook his head. He wasn't interested in the aristocratic Hernandez family. If he wasn't interested in the Hernandez family in King City, why would he be interested in the aristocratic one?"Rest well," Eric said. "With two broken ribs, you need to rest for a while

    Bryce was equally troubled. He knew Larry and Martha would target the Innova Group, but it was already early morning!All he could do was wait patiently."What do we do next?" Sylvia asked. "We can't just leave him here to recover forever, can we? Besides, Bryce is quite dangerous. He's only using us for now. Once he's healed and the obstacles from the Pentra family are removed, I believe he'll turn against us."At this, Eric chuckled. "They're all doomed to fail. If Larry and Martha dare to act, we'll deal with them first, then come back for Bryce. He can't escape."-In the afternoon, several major distributors invited Eric, Sylvia, Matthew, Vince, and others to dine.They chose the most upscale venue in Westlake City.Regardless of the quality of the food, the upscale setting was meant to demonstrate sincerity.Their days had improved. Not only the top five distributors but also the smaller ones, were upgrading their vehicles.Previously, like John and the others, they had

    Eric surveyed the scene ahead, where two cars blocked the road completely, causing a halt in their progress. He chuckled and turned to Matthew, saying, "You were right. They're asking for trouble. Looks like it's the Larry, just as Bryce mentioned!"Eric opened the car door with a smirk, and Sylvia followed suit. After all, she was a quite formidable grandmaster.Vince and a few others from the Combat Department also disembarked from the vehicle. They were still in Westlake City, waiting for the Pentra family. Tonight, they were invited to dine by the distributors, and even they were included, considering they had helped them fend off the Pentra family before.On the opposite side, their counterparts alighted as well.Larry held a cigar in his mouth, taking a deep drag before exhaling slowly. His gaze fixed on Eric with a faint smile.However, in the next moment, his smile vanished completely. Despite the dim lighting, he recognized Eric, the man who had killed a transcendent Cate

    Larry rolled on the ground several times, spitting out a mouthful of blood before scrambling to his feet and fleeing.If he knew from the start Eric was the one who had killed the transcendent Catellonian shadow warrior, he probably wouldn't have dared to act. Even if he did, he would have planned it meticulously, not recklessly barging in with his men as he did tonight.Matthew pushed back a Pentra grandmater and prepared to pursue Larry."Let him go," Eric shouted. "Don't chase him. He can only go back to the Pentra family—nowhere else!"Matthew halted, beginning to clean up the aftermath. With Larry fleeing, the rest had no courage left. Those who could escape had already fled, and those caught were detained.Eric said, "Matthew, go to the hotel and bring Bryce here. The rest of you, come with me to the Pentra family. Tonight, we settle this!""Yes!" Matthew promptly turned back.At that moment, Ron's phone rang. Oblivious to the chaos outside due to his drunken state, he was

    In terms of innate talent, Eric was unparalleled, having reached the pinnacle of martial arts. With a single punch, he sent the 'God' flying."Good!" Stealthbane shouted with excitement.The ultimate enemy had finally been defeated, bringing peace to the world. Eric sighed in relief.However, in the next moment, the 'God' stood up again. Spitting out a mouthful of blood, he revealed a bloodthirsty smile. "You have successfully enraged me!"Everyone braced for a potential massacre, but instead, the enemy turned and fled.Could Eric let him escape?"Chase him!" Stealthbane commanded.Allowing this foe to escape would spell endless trouble.A group of people pursued the enemy, who soon reappeared clad in iron armor."Not seen this before, have you?" The 'God' seemed to have recovered somewhat. "Did you think I only research viruses? Wrong! I control global resources and global wealth!"This is our newly developed Doomforge Exosuit which amplifies a person's battle prowess tenfol

    The sturdy floor lay in utter disarray.In desperation, Ruth shouted, "Eric, don't give him any more chances! Finish him off swiftly, or we'll face endless trouble!"Eric was well aware of this logic. As he fought, he said, "He's incredibly strong. Taking him down quickly isn't possible! We must fight to the death!"Eric had never feared battle. Besides, this might very well be his final fight.Their fists clashed fiercely.The 'God' also noticed that Eric was growing more formidable as the battle progressed."How do you have so much strength? Wouldn't it be better if we joined forces to control the world? We could have anything we desire!"All the world's wealth, women, and resources would be ours to enjoy. Why won't you listen to reason?" he roared.Eric's momentum didn't falter. "I don't share your grand ambitions. I just want a simple life with a job that pays 1,000 dollars a month and a warm home with my wife and kids. But you, you've disturbed my peace!"The 'God' was fu

    The 'God' grew more courageous as the battle raged on, causing Stealthbane to worry incessantly.In another high-stakes clash, Eric and his opponent both retreated. Eric sensed his opponent's growing strength, finding it rather peculiar.The 'God' clenched his fist. "I must thank you! My techniques were slightly incomplete, but I've managed to fill the gaps through this battle!"Eric marveled at his opponent's genius. To mend something incomplete was indeed a rare talent.Despite Eric training with the complete manual, he could only match the 'God' blow for blow. This person was terrifying!The opponent's confidence soared. Although Eric had trained with the full manual, the 'God' felt his innate talent far surpassed Eric's. If he could match Eric with an incomplete manual, now that he had perfected it, wouldn't he be unbeatable?"I thought you had potential and considered inviting you to share this world with me," the 'God' said, his tone turning icy. "But now, I see it's unnece

    Stealthbane even felt that Eric might not be a match for the "God."The power was overwhelming.The terrifying aura was enough to crush everything. To an ordinary person, this was a real deity—the strength possessed had already transcended human limits.Eric made his move with a burst of speed. The clash of their fists created a thunderous explosion, and the sound was so intense that Stealthbane felt his eardrums might shatter.This was a battle of the highest caliber, one that even a legend like Stealthbane could not hope to join.Seeing the two evenly matched, Stealthbane sighed in relief. At least there was a chance that the strongest combatants were neutralizing each other. The outcome was still uncertain.Eric shook his aching fist, his expression grave. The opponent's strength was as he had anticipated. If the ultimate boss of the Luminous did not possess such combat power, it would be absurd.Clearly, this "God" had also gauged Eric's strength.He extended a hand toward

    Stealthbane knew that the figure facing them must be the ultimate leader of the Luminous.Suddenly, he no longer wanted to die. If he could hold on just a little longer, it would all be over."Mr. Johnson, these people don't seem ordinary. Could that leader be the ultimate figure of the Luminous? Are we about to complete the game?" he whispered.To him, this mission to the Ark felt like a game: defeat the final boss, and victory is achieved."If I'm not mistaken, it should be. This person gives me... a sense of danger," Eric said.Upon hearing this, Stealthbane felt reassured.Just a sense? That meant the problem wasn't too grave!The leader on the opposite side turned to Eric. "I didn't expect you to make it this far. I underestimated your strength, believing my Ark was impregnable, that no enemy could breach it. But why are you so persistent? Why such determination?"He suddenly screamed in a fit of hysteria, "I have so many people! Such a grand scheme! It has all succeeded!

    Brent shouted desperately, "After you get on your knees, they'll kill you all, and we won't survive either! Kill them! Kill them all!"He understood the situation with stark clarity. Kneeling meant certain death. If they had to die anyway, fighting back would be their only chance of survival.Eric sighed. "Mr. Rogers, in the end, it was we who implicated you. But this place must be eradicated, and the Luminous must be destroyed as well! Everyone, attack!"As the battle commenced, the masked man immediately struck Brent with a punch.Eric charged in. "Die!"He knew that Brent was unlikely to survive. This punch was his way of avenging Brent.The masked man spun around, trying to block Eric's punch. But the speed of the blow was too much—the gust of wind from the punch arrived before the fist did.It was an instant kill.The masked man had no time to react before Eric's punch collided with his chest. The terrifying force shattered the mask on the man's face, revealing an unfamili

    Stealthbane was blinded by rage. He was killing anyone in sight, his fury unrelenting. They had ventured deep into enemy territory, where every encounter seemed to be with an adversary.Eric and his team from the Combat Department showed no mercy.Yet even Stealthbane's resolve was wearing thin."I can't kill them all! It feels like every master in the world is concentrated here!" he shouted in frustration.He felt the number of people he had brought was insufficient. If he had brought a few thousand more, he might have been able to overrun the place.Stealthbane was overwhelmed by the sheer horror of their situation. Fortunately, they had arrived. If anyone else had come, they would have met their end here.The numbers of the masters seemed endless."Damn it!" Stealthbane cursed angrily. "There are too many of them, and they're all exceptionally powerful. What kind of game is this?"He was tempted to retreat, but where could he go?Eric sent an enemy flying, pushing forward

    "I was opposed to coming in from the start, but as you all know, the Rogers family is extremely complex. If we hadn't entered, I might have ended up dead. At least if the virus isn't a threat, that's something!" Brent poured himself a cup of coffee and continued. "These people are ruthless! They want to kill everyone outside the Ark and establish a new order, managed by a select few. It's insane!"You don't need to tell me—I know you're here to kill them."He then pulled a small token from his pocket. "This is our Rogers family's privilege here. It allows us to move freely between different levels. With this, you can go anywhere!"Stealthbane grabbed it eagerly. "Why didn't you mention this earlier? Things will go much smoother with this!"Brent sighed. "Once you've handled everything, could you take me out with you? I really don't want to stay in this dreadful place any longer.""Sure!" Eric nodded. "We'll definitely call you when we leave. For now, we're heading out."Brent e

    Everything was ready, but they couldn't just walk in.Ruth instructed the Combat Department to conduct a three-day intensive training for everyone, focusing on coordinated combat.-After three days, the forces led by Stealthbane moved out, first dismantling the outer defenses of the Ark. This was their specialty!A large group of several hundred arrived in front of the Ark's entrance. At first glance, it resembled a mountain.Jack scratched his head and said, "Is this the gate? I don't see any door."The Holy Templar's people arrived as well. St. Pius said, "Everyone, don't rush. Wait for two minutes. Once the gate opens, we need to get in quickly. I have other plans inside, but once we're in, it's going to be a life-or-death battle! No one should show any mercy!"Stealthbane flexed his fists and replied, "Do I look like a good guy to you? Just watch me deal with them!"No sooner had he spoken than there was a tremendous roar. The ground shook, and the door of the Ark swung
