Hearing my words, Damian was furious to the point of almost exploding.


    "Fine, fine, it seems like you''re not going to learn until it''s toote. Everyone, listen


    up! Grab this kid! Today, I''m going to cut out his tongue to set an example!"


    At hismand, his subordinates, who had been stunned by my words, immediately started walking toward me.


    I wasn''t scared because I knew Quintus was secretly protecting me.


    If he thought he could handle these people, he would. If it seemed like too much trouble, he could always call for backup.


    I trusted his judgment.


    As I waited for them to approach, Benjamin, Liam and Matthew suddenly stood by my side.


    I was a bit stunned. "You guys..."


    Matthew''s face was pale, but he clenched his fists. "We''re in this together. If we''re going down today, we''ll go down as a group!"


    "That''s right. If it''s just you, he might try to cover it up. If all four of us go down, he can''t just sweep it under the rug! If he''s got the guts, let him try. We''ll make sure the media gets involved. I want to see if they''re really that powerful to the point of hiding everything!" Liam said firmly.


    Although Benjamin was too afraid to speak, he still stood firmly by my side.


    I felt a bit emotional.


    It seemed I had truly found good friends who would stand by me through thick and thin.


    "Ben!"


    At that moment, Tiffany ran up and tightly hugged Benjamin''s arm.


    Benjamin was startled and quickly said, "Don''te here!"


    Tiffany immediately responded, "Ben, you''ve done so much for a friend, how could I, as your sister, let


    you ask this alone? I''m going with live and die together."


    You


    "Tiff!"


    "Ben, don''t say anything more. I won''t leave!" Tiffany said.


    Amy also rushed up and stood by Tiffany''s side, leaving only Yvonne hiding in the back.


    Originally, I was the only one at risk, so Damian didn''t take us seriously.


    Even if he really hurt me, Dragonshade Society could easily cover it up.


    However, it wouldn''t be that easy with six people involved. It would be hard to silence all of us.


    If something happened, the news would spread quickly. Even if Damian didn''t die, he would be skinned alive. That was why he felt uneasy.


    At this moment, hisckeys had already surrounded us.


    Liana sneered. "What do you think you''re doing? Do you really think I''ll give you the chance? Listen up, keep these guys separated and under contro Don''t let them get close. Then, we''ll focus on dealing with William."


    "Yes, Ms. yton!" theckeys replied.


    I had to admit that Liana was clever. Soon, her men dragged Benjamin and the


    others away, making sure they couldn''t get any closer.


    Meanwhile, I was surrounded by sevenckeys.


    Even then Tremained calm. I looked at Liana and said, "I was going to ask earlier, but now I don''t need to. It''s obvious what you and Damian are you two must be having an affair behind everyone''s backs."
