Now that Kayden had returned to live here again, the implication was clear.Lloyd gazed at the mansion before him, his eyes flashing with a hint of ruthlessness."Uncle Kayden, oh Uncle Kayden, dreaming of regaining control of the Zeals? That's wishful thinking," Lloyd muttered to himself as Jordan knocked on the door, which swung open swiftly.Confidently, Lloyd strode in with his entourage—over a dozen bodyguards, their demeanor aggressive. This didn't seem like a mere visit. It felt more like a confrontation.Kayden awaited him in the hall, his thin face grim, his eyes burning like fiery flames."Uncle Kayden, I've come to see you," Lloyd announced, though his attitude was arrogant, clearly not holding Kayden in high regard.Kayden naturally sensed his hostile intent but maintained a smile as he gestured for Lloyd to take a seat. The service staff promptly brought tea."I'm in good health, no need to worry," Kayden replied.Lloyd didn't touch the tea but held the cup for sho

Lloyd's smirk was sinister and cunning, infuriating Kayden so much that he slammed the table and exclaimed, "Lloyd, are you really using Sophie to threaten me?""Uncle Kayden, please calm down. I have never said such a thing," Lloyd retorted, showing no fear of Kayden as he stepped forward and stared him down. "It was my stepmother who mentioned feeling unwell these past few days. As her stepson, I naturally couldn't ignore it. So, I arranged for her to recuperate in a beautiful place. It's just me fulfilling my duty as a stepson. Where's the threat in that?"Lloyd maintained a malicious smile as he locked eyes with Kayden, a silent warning that coveting the Zeal Group would jeopardize Sophie's safety."Uncle Kayden, you're a smart man," Lloyd said, taking a seat and crossing his legs arrogantly. "You can't have your cake and eat it too. You want wealth and beauty, but such good fortune doesn't come cheap, does it?"Lloyd revealed his true colors. He had dared to confront Kayden be

"You're talking nonsense." Kayden's eyes turned bloodshot, feeling nauseous to his stomach. Why did he have a nephew like Lloyd?"I genuinely care about Sophie, but you and Kerrigan are full of lies and deceit toward her. It's because of you that Sophie ended up with depression. Haven't you hurt her enough? Why use her against me?"Kayden's hysterical demeanor pleased Lloyd greatly. He had feared Kayden would remain indifferent. It seemed Sophie did hold a significant place in his heart."Uncle Kayden, my patience is wearing thin. I didn't come here to negotiate with you today. You should understand what I mean." Lloyd glanced at his watch, clicking his tongue twice. "The place Sophie went to is crowded with tourists, and the mountain roads are treacherous. If anything were to happen, the outcome would be dire.""Don't you lay a finger on her!" Kayden grew desperate, attempting to fight Lloyd.As soon as he stood up, though, Lloyd's bodyguards subdued him.Lloyd sneered. "The gre

Lloyd got ready for a video call with the other side. After a few beeps, the call was connected. "Uncle Kayden, if you have anything to tell Sophie, better do it now."Kayden stared at the phone screen in horror, but all he heard was a man's desperate cries. "Ah! Spare me! Spare me!"The scene was clearly off, and the voice didn't match.Lloyd quickly took the phone and what he saw infuriated him. Instead of Sophie, his men were all sprawled on the ground, clutching their stomachs in agony. Sophie, however, was nowhere to be found.Lloyd gritted his teeth, demanding, "What's going on over there?!"Everything he had arranged had been ruined. Who was behind this?Unfortunately, there was no response from the other side. The wails of Lloyd's men felt like a slap to his face, leaving his cheeks burning with humiliation.Suddenly, there was a bang. The bodyguards controlling Kayden were all kicked away.Owen swaggered in, brushing nonexistent dust off his clothes. With a deadpan exp

Kayden grasped the gravity of Lloyd's intentions and swiftly instructed Owen, "Go quickly. Don't fret about me."Ignoring Kayden's warning, Owen cracked his knuckles, flexed his muscles, and boldly addressed Lloyd's bodyguards, "All of you, come at me together. I don't have time to waste dealing with each of you individually."His words dripped with arrogance, further inflaming Lloyd's bodyguards. Despite Owen's evident skill, his disdain was palpable.Enraged, the bodyguards exchanged glances before collectively charging at Owen.Bracing himself, Owen pulled back his right leg for action.Kayden anxiously observed from the sidelines. Even if Owen emerged victorious from this altercation, he would undoubtedly sustain injuries. Kayden couldn't suppress his disdain for Jade. She had the means to rescue Sophie, yet she allowed Owen to take such a reckless gamble.The bodyguards lunged at Owen, but he suddenly shifted his stance, crouching and shielding his head. In the heat of the m

Unfortunately for Lloyd, the journalists weren't going to let him off the hook so easily. They crowded around the door, demanding a reasonable explanation for his actions today.The esteemed CEO of the Zeal Group was caught red-handed, bringing bodyguards to his own uncle's doorstep. His attitude was arrogant, and his words were brazen. Even when caught in the act by the journalists, he showed no remorse.Lloyd looked at the journalists blocking the entrance in rage, his fists clenched tightly. Apart from Jade, he couldn't think of anyone else who could have gathered so many journalists here within such a short time."What should we do? We can't force our way through," one of the bodyguards whispered to Lloyd, analyzing the situation. "There are too many journalists. If we try to force our way out, it could easily result in injuries. If they write about it, it will have a significant impact on the Zeal Group.""No matter what you do, I must leave here," Lloyd insisted.The more jo

The bodyguard's words shook Lloyd out of his composure. He knew all too well the power of that talk show host. If the host caught him in his vulnerable state, he wouldn't let him off easy."Mr. Lloyd, we can't hesitate any longer," the bodyguard urged as he saw Lloyd struggling with his decision. "If we don't leave now, it might be too late."Lloyd gritted his teeth and shut his eyes tightly."Let's go," he muttered through clenched teeth.Several bodyguards swiftly escorted him toward the backyard, where Lloyd exchanged clothes with one of them in a secluded spot. Donning Lloyd's attire, the bodyguard slipped on sunglasses and headed to the front yard.Meanwhile, the other bodyguards widened the hole in the corner of the wall, making it large enough for one person to pass through.They beckoned Lloyd, saying, "Mr. Lloyd, come quickly. There's no one here."Lloyd scanned his surroundings, ensuring there was no one nearby. With caution, he instructed the bodyguard, "You go first

Had it not been for Jade's plan, how easily could Lloyd have fallen into their trap?With this commotion, the tide had turned in their favor.

Lloyd hired the most famous lawyer for him, instructing the attorney beforehand that they could only win and not lose.The lawyer was under immense pressure—everyone knew this case was difficult to win—but Lloyd offered him a hefty sum. Despite the challenges, he was determined to proceed."Understood, Mr. Lloyd."Satisfied, Lloyd nodded. He had prepared extensively for this trial. Losing was not an option. Since Lloyd's previous incident had caused the Zeal Group's stocks to plummet, he didn't attend the trial in person. However, he could see everything that happened in the courtroom clearly.The judge arrived, as did others, followed by the plaintiff and defendant. Kayden and Kerrigan met again, both looking particularly resentful.After over a month in custody, Kerrigan had aged significantly, barely recognizable with his once-dark hair now white, adding a decade to his appearance.
