Alfred''s furious outburst stunned everyone in the Goth family.


    "The entire city of Jayrodale is closing ranks against us right now!" he shouted, his face red with rage.


    "I spent over 30 years building ourwork-30 years of sweat, deals, and favors- and you destroyed it in a single day! You want me to stay away? Fine. But what now? You expect me to sleep on the streets like some washed -up nobody?"


    Alfred was shaking with rage as he pped Dominic across the face again-and again, and again, delivering a flurry of brutal smacks. Given his seniority and power in the family, Alfred''s authority was on par with Dominic''s, if not stronger.


    In fact, Dominic''s mediocrity had long been hidden behind Alfred''s efforts he was the one who kept the family''s reputation intact. So, inside the Goth family, Alfred''s word always carried more weight than Dominic''s.


    After that vicious barrage of ps, Dominic''s face was covered in blood. Even one of his ears had started to bleed.


    Cami shrieked in terror like she was the one getting hit. "It''s over... It''s all over! Even Uncle Alfred''s finished... This is it. Heaven itself wants our family destroyed!"


    Whatever shred of hope Dominic had left vanished in that moment. With a loud thud, he dropped to his knees and Taughed bitterly,pletely broken.


    Blood dripped down from the corners of his mouth and his brow, but he did not care. He just stayed there on the floor, looking like his soul had been ripped from his body.


    Alfred gritted his teeth and roared, "You idiot! You absolute fool! Even now, you''re still ming the world? Are you blind? Or deaf? Can''t you see this is Mr. Lloyd''s punishment raining down on us?"


    Dominic flinched hard as if someone had dumped a bucket of ice water over his head. “Mr. Lloyd... Dr. Lloyd... please, I''m begging you. Please spare our family. Over 300 people are depending on the Goth family to survive. Please, don''t wipe us out... we won''tst without you."


    Still kneeling, he crawled toward Andrew and clung to his leg, weeping and begging like a man with nothing left.


    Cami barked, "Don''t you dare beg him! So what if he got the other families to cklist us? My family-the White family-we''re not afraid of him. We don''t answer to anyone!"


    Dominic''s body tensed. She was right-he still had Cami''s side of the family.


    Cami pulled out her phone and smirked at Andrew. "If you''re really trying to destroy us, then I hope you''re ready for what happens next. Let me show you how powerless you really are."


    She immediately called her brother, Caleb White. "Hey, it''s me..."


    But before she could say more, the voice on the other end exploded. "Shut your damn mouth! I''m not your family! You backstabbing parasite! You deserve everything that''s


    "If the White family gets dragged down because of the Goths, I''ll cut ties with you


    and make sure you pay in blood!

    Cami froze like a statue. It felt like a hundred thunderps exploded in her skull, shaking her down to the bone.


    She muttered, "H-How was this


    even possible? Even her own family had been dragged into this mess. Was Andrew really that powerful? Had his influence already reached that level?"


    Her phone slipped from her trembling hand and hit the floor with a dull ck. She stared at Andrew in disbelief,


    her lips trembling. "Y-You actually managed to push even the White family this far..."


    Andrew let out a cold chuckle as he looked at the devastated couple. "So... now, do you finally believe me?"
