Winner Takes All Chapter 672
"Anyone who covets the Campbells bloodline will die!" Alexander shouted.He bent down and grabbed a handful of stones, tossing them one by one as if he were playing a game.Ordinary stones, once released from Alexander's hand, achieved terrifying speeds, slicing through the air like bullets.Screams echoed through the forest.One by one, bleeding bodies emerged from hidden spots. Each hit was a fatal strike!Even Austin felt his scalp tingle and an overwhelming fear grip his heart.Could a human truly reach this level?Austin had never slacked in his training because he knew that to inherit the Campbell family head position, he needed not only a perfect business record but also a strong body and combat skills.True elite families demanded their members to excel in all areas. That's why the Campbells provided elite education for their outstanding young members.But the more Austin trained, the more he understood human limits. Yet Alexander's abilities shattered his understandin

Who is he?Austin gazed deeply at the departing bandaged man.To withstand Alexander's full-force attack and then be allowed to leave with a smile meant he wasn't an ordinary person.Could it be...Suddenly, a thought flashed in Austin's mind.He glanced at Alexander but didn't ask any further. Instead, he said, "Uncle Alexander, let's go home.""Alright!"Alexander nodded, looking at Dahlia's grave. "Go and kneel for your mother. Pay your respects properly."The return to the Tetra Club was just as grand, but unlike before, Austin wasn't concerned about causing a stir.His mind was consumed with thoughts of the bandaged man.Among all the assassins, who else could walk away from Alexander alive?Nether!Realizing this, Austin felt a chill envelop his entire body.The arrival of Nether, the tenth-ranked assassin on the Death List, had been swift!If Alexander hadn't shown up unexpectedly, Austin would likely have faced Nether, even while hiding in the Tetra Club.That wo

Alexander's words left everyone, including Austin, speechless.A ruby taken from the crown of Raemund—no wonder it was nowhere to be found on the market.Wait!Austin and Cecily were simultaneously taken aback. They exchanged a glance, and Cecily's face turned slightly pale, her expression conflicted.If the ruby came from Raemund's crown, didn't that mean it was taken from Pyragora?For a moment, Cecily didn't know whether to feel excited or afraid.Alexander ignored their reactions and walked over to Aldus, who was sitting in a wheelchair.The moment Aldus saw Alexander, he became dazed. When Alexander got closer, Aldus finally snapped out of it."Mr. Alexander."Alexander looked at Aldus calmly for a few seconds, then suddenly scolded disdainfully, "Ten years and still no progress. You're useless."Aldus gave an awkward laugh, feeling embarrassed but didn't argue back.When others call him useless, Aldus would not agree. This was his pride as the mercenary king who had do

A gentle breeze rustled the leaves in the courtyard, creating a serene atmosphere.On the stone table, sandalwood incense wafted in the air beside a pot of coffee.Austin hadn't felt this relaxed in a long time. Sipping his coffee, he looked at Alexander, feeling a sense of security thanks to him."Uncle Alexander, is there any way to deal with this?" Austin asked.The Emersons had struck a crippling blow, and the Shadow Web Syndicate had issued an assassination order, leaving even Walter helpless.Conventional methods weren't working, so Austin could only hope that Alexander had some unconventional solution.If this dragged on and he continued to hide in the Tetra Club, relying on layers of protection, he might stay safe, but what about his position as the head of the Campbells?His business plans were already set in motion, but with him holed up in the Tetra Club, everything was at a standstill.How could he deliver a perfect score to the Campbells like this?He had endured

Someone else was here?!Austin was shocked, his pulse racing. From start to finish, he hadn't sensed anything.Even Raquel, Aldus, their bodyguard team, and all the monitoring equipment hadn't detected a thing!As soon as Alexander finished speaking, footsteps suddenly echoed—unhurried, as if taking a stroll.Austin followed the sound, his pupils shrinking to pinpricks, and felt his scalp tingle.The courtyard door opened. The man wrapped in bandages slowly walked in.His only visible eyes were as shadowy as a venomous snake, emitting a chilling, sinister light. His entire body radiated an icy coldness.What was going on? Where were Raquel, Aldus, and Wolf?Austin's mind was in turmoil, overwhelmed with thoughts.Instinctively, he wanted to get up and escape, but he remembered Alexander's advice.Gritting his teeth, he forced himself to stay seated on the stone bench, watching the man intently.When the man was about ten steps away, Alexander suddenly waved his right hand, s

The scene before Austin made him feel icy cold and terrified.Silently incapacitating everyone—no wonder Nether was ranked 10th on the Death List!Austin could have already imagined the grim outcome if Alexander hadn't been there.Austin quickly called for everyone to be taken to Legacy Hospital.Fortunately, they were only knocked out and not in any life-threatening condition.In the hospital room, Austin sat by the bed, keeping watch over the unconscious Cecily, still shaken.He couldn't believe that despite all their layers of protection, they had been so vulnerable to someone like Nether!Taking a deep breath, Austin looked at the unconscious Cecily, gently stroking her face with a heart full of sorrow. "I'm sorry I couldn't protect you."By evening, everyone had woken up.Under Samuel's arrangement, they underwent extensive re-evaluation to ensure there were no lingering effects, finally allowing Austin to completely relax.By the time everything was settled, it was alre

A thought suddenly struck Austin, leaving him stunned.He looked at Cecily in shock. "Do you think Uncle Alexander might have done this?"Cecily was momentarily surprised.Her lips moved as if to speak, but she remained silent. Because, indeed, Alexander had the capability.Austin's mind raced, and his eyes gleamed with newfound clarity.He didn't know why Alexander had left the Grave Prison, but if Alexander had dealt with the Grim Guard Mercenaries, then the Shadow Web Syndicate's assassination order might change!Thinking this, Austin became ecstatic. Despite his usual composure, he couldn't help but squeeze Cecily's hand tightly.Cecily looked at Austin in bewilderment. "Honey, what's going on?""Maybe, just maybe, there's a turning point coming!" Austin said with a smile.……Over the following week, everything seemed to return to normal.The Tetra Club had been unusually calm, no assassins had shown up. Even the monitoring equipment hadn't detected any signs of intruder

"Shadow Web Syndicate, Death List's top assassin, Nether!" Ezra's eyes were filled with confusion as he spoke.Nether?!Austin's body tensed, and his expression turned to one of disbelief.How was this possible?"It can't be. Nether was here a week ago, the man wrapped in bandages!" Austin's voice trembled, unable to contain his shock."Mr. Lockwood, you all saw him. And after you were knocked out by Nether, it was Uncle Alexander who scared him off. How could he turn around and assassinate my dad?"Doubts spread through Austin's mind like wildfire.The Emersons from the capital had posted a bounty on the dark web targeting him. Nether failing to assassinate him, then turning to target Walter?It made no sense!Even Shadow Web Syndicate wouldn't issue such a nonsensical "bonus mission," right?"Sir, I was just as shocked when I learned of this. The family is still investigating, and we don't know the exact reasons yet," Ezra said, looking at Austin with confusion and fear.S

Austin never expected that Nancy would come back.As he returned to the Tetra Club, he remained sullen, his eyes dark with unresolved anger.Seeing Austin like this, Cecily felt a pang of sadness.She gently tried to comfort him, "It's all in the past now, isn't it? I'm here with you, and we have our baby on the way.""I can't just let it go," Austin shook his head."The best I can do is not seek revenge against them, but to truly forgive and forget—I can't do that."The actions of Nancy's family were still fresh in his memory.Austin wasn't someone who sought revenge for every slight, but he was far from the kind of person who could simply forgive and forget, moving on with a carefree "Hallelujah."Dahlia's despair as she lay in bed, the arrogance and cruelty of the Welch family…In the eyes of the Welch family, Dahlia's life wasn't worth as much as Harvey's wedding.Even when the time had passed and he was about to finally be happy with Cecily, the Welch family not only dem

After leaving this city, Nancy put in a tremendous amount of effort to "rebirth" herself.Meeting Ethan had shown her a different side of life.While he wasn't part of the uppermost echelons of wealth and power, he had enough. Most importantly, he treated her with the utmost respect.She understood Ethan's background, which made that respect all the more valuable.A man of his stature could have any woman he wanted in his bed the same night.Yet Ethan had shown her incredible patience, making her question whether the rumors about him were true.Tonight, returning to this city was her way of bidding farewell to the past and embracing the future.After all, people need to look forward, don't they?Meanwhile, Ethan was feeling more dejected than he'd ever been.Lying in his luxurious bed in Brook Villa, he couldn't sleep, tossing and turning restlessly.He had hoped to establish a connection with Austin. A figure like him would be incredibly valuable to have on his side.He tho

The river breeze was cool, and the lights reflected on the water flickered softly.The figure in front of them wore a long black coat, standing quietly by the railing. Her fair, delicate profile, partially obscured by a few strands of windblown hair, carried a hint of melancholy."Sir, Mrs. Campbell, is something wrong?" Aldus noticed the change and quickly stepped forward to inquire."Let's go home," Austin suddenly said, his previously cheerful expression now somber, with a touch of disdain.Go home? They had just arrived.Aldus was surprised and quickly followed Austin's gaze. When he saw what Austin was looking at, he immediately understood.Without a word, he turned to leave with Austin.But a soft hand gently grabbed Austin's arm."It's been so many years, aren't you going to say hello?" Cecily asked."I have no desire to greet her," Austin said, his disdain clear and unhidden.Three years of marriage, filled with nothing but pain.Even when Dahlia was gravely ill, Nan

After a busy day, just as Austin was about to finish up, a new invitation appeared on his desk."Who delivered this?" Austin asked."Ethan," Wolf replied.Austin chuckled, didn't bother opening the invitation, and instead tossed it directly into the trash."I've got to get home to Cecily."When he returned to the Bamboo Parlor at Tetra Club, Raquel had already prepared a delicious dinner.The dishes were beautifully presented, with vibrant colors and enticing aromas.After dinner, Austin and Ezra stepped out into the courtyard."Mr. Lockwood, any news from the Campbells about my dad?" Austin asked, the text message from Walter still weighing heavily on his mind.Considering the Campbells' efforts to find Walter, and given their intelligence resources, they should have been some leads by now.But Ezra shook his head. "Nothing, Not a trace.""The Campbells' intelligence network has never been this weak, has it?" Austin frowned, speaking in a low tone.Ezra gave a wry smile. "

"Childhood?"Austin stopped his workout, wiped the sweat from his face, and smiled bitterly.His childhood had been bleak.Only Dahlia had brought some light into the darkness.Seeing Austin's pained smile, Aldus immediately realized his mistake.He quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Sir. I spoke without thinking. You don't need to answer that.""It's fine," Austin replied, gesturing towards a nearby bench, and inviting Aldus to sit with him.Once they were seated, Austin slowly began to speak. "There's not much to tell about my childhood. It was mostly just being called an 'illegitimate child' and living day to day, never knowing where my next meal would come from."If it weren't for my mom fighting tooth and nail to raise me, I'd probably be dead by now."With just a few simple words, he conveyed a world of suffering.Aldus felt a wave of guilt. He had only been trying to find clues from Austin's past that might explain his exceptional combat instincts and incredible physical

Austin's gaze softened as warmth flooded his heart.Who hasn't longed for a light left on just for them in a sea of lights? But in reality, how many actually have that?Cecily did that for him.Given her background, the fact that she went to such lengths truly surprised Austin.In the three years he spent in the past, he had never experienced something like this.His nose tingled with emotion as he pulled Cecily into his arms, speaking softly, "Thank you. Marrying you is the greatest fortune of my life.""Alright, alright, I asked Raquel to prepare breakfast earlier this morning. You go to the dining room, and I'll have her bring it over," Cecily said as she gently slipped out of Austin's embrace, her graceful smile lighting up her eyes."Doesn't Bamboo Parlor have a kitchen?" Austin asked, curious.Cecily gave him a playful look. "The chairs in the living room are so hard, and you spent the whole night on one—how could you have slept well? If Raquel had been clattering around

The room fell into a heavy silence."Deactivating the phone number… was Dad trying to prevent me from tracking his location?" Austin murmured with a frown.Ezra pondered for a moment, his voice low and serious. "Perhaps he was more concerned about someone else tracking him."Austin's eyes widened in realization.Of course—if Walter could send him a message to let him know he was safe, he wouldn't be worried about Austin tracking himDeactivating the phone was likely to prevent others from tracing his location."But who is he trying to avoid?"Ezra shook his head, remaining silent.Having followed Walter for many years, he knew the man's temperament and habits. But this time, he was truly baffled.He couldn't even begin to piece together a clue.Taking a deep breath, Ezra forced a bitter smile. "I'm afraid I'm at a loss this time, sir. There's no sign of anything unusual from the Campbells either."This statement only deepened Austin's confusion.If there were anyone who cou

Austin knocked softly on the door.Almost immediately, he heard the sound of shuffling from inside.Ezra opened the door, his face full of curiosity. "Sir, what's going on?"Austin quickly made a shushing gesture, worried about disturbing Cecily.Then he gently pushed Ezra back into the room."Sorry to bother you so late, Mr. Lockwood," Austin said.Ezra smiled. "It's no trouble at all. The older you get, the less you need. I was just reading."Austin glanced at the book on Ezra's bedside table and couldn't help but feel a bit exasperated.This old rascal!Ezra blushed and quickly shoved the book under his pillow.Austin sat on the bed and pulled up the text message from Walter, showing it to Ezra."I just received this message."When Ezra read the text, his eyes lit up with a sharp gleam, and he was overjoyed. "This is from Mr. Walter!"Austin nodded, his expression serious. "But I've sent several messages back, and there's been no reply. I called twice—once it was immedi
