"Sure. Be my guest."


    I extended a palm toward Liana.


    Her face was pale as she gritted her teeth and pulled her phone out, holding it to


    her ear. However, she received no response except for the dial tone. She scowled.


    When her call hung up from theck of response, she refused to give in. Liana called him once more.


    Still, no one picked up.


    When Damian saw that, he asked Liana," Mom, what''s the problem?"


    Liana hissed through her teeth, "I called your dad, asking him toe over and teach this broke loser a lesson. However, no one picked up!"


    Damian replied, "Mr. Wilde organized a celebratory dinner today to treat his subordinates to a meal and reward them. He also invited a few renowned guests to witness it. They''re definitely busy there. It''s understandable that Dad didn''t pick up."


    "Is that right?"


    Liana frowned. However, her tensed-up face rxed.


    "In that case, stay here and watch them. I''ll make a trip there myself so that your


    father wille over and support you in the flesh no matter the cost!"


    Before Damian could reply, she grabbed her bag and rushed off.


    I couldn''t help but chuckle at her retreating figure.


    She insisted that she was getting help. However, it was clear that she realized that things weren''t going well for them and decided to sneak away, leaving Damian to clean up their mess. Empty promises were music to my ears.


    After leaving, Damian was the only member of Dragonshade Society still standing. Naturally, there was no way I would let him off easily.


    Considering how Lynn had offended Dragonshade Society and how I offended Damian, our war with Dragonshade Society was bing inevitable.


    I had wanted to minimize the severity of our conflict and resolve it eventually.


    There was no point in doing so after this. We''d just go for it.


    I pulled my phone out and messaged Quintus with a few tasks.


    If everything went as nned, I would destroy Dragonshade Society today.


    After texting him, I scanned the people around me coldly.


    "I don''t care who you used to work for, or whether you offended me today. Right now, I''m giving you a chance to get out of here


    immediately and disappear from my line of sight. I''ll let your misgivings slide. Otherwise, I''ll beat you up daily till you pee your pants. This will continue till the day you die."


    I red at Maximus.


    "Well, fuck off already!"


    Maximus flinched. He opened his mouth as though he was about to say


    something. In the end, he said nothing. After shooting Mark a baleful re, he left while holding his other hand.


    His departure sent waves through the crowd.


    Many people here didn''t belong to Dragonshade Society. They were merely Damian''s friends. Knowing that there would not be a feast awaiting them here and continuing to stay would implicate them, they fled.


    Those who remained were part of Dragonshade Society. They were pretty loyal. My words hadn''t scared them off. They stumbled to their feet and huddled around Damian.


    Damian clenched his fists and


    roared furiously, "Don''t delude yourself into thinking that you can scare me by hiring beaters from Quadrant Springs. When my momes back with our people you''ll die before even knowing what happened!"
