“Julia is under my protection,” William said, his voice low but solid, as he turned from Julia to face Jack fully. The faint clatter in the hall died instantly, as though every sound understood the weight behind those words. “Hurt her, and you’ll regret it.”

The atmosphere in the hall shifted sharply. Until this moment, fear had worn many faces, but now something else crept in. Anticipation.

Two powerful men stood opposite each other, each with a reputation that could silence rooms and ruin lives.

Guests who had been whispering moments earlier now held their breath.

Some clutched their bags closer, others leaned back instinctively, as though distance alone could shield them from the collision about to happen.

    "Jack?" Julia whispered, the name falling from her lips like broken glass. She stared at him closely, as though the name itself carried thorns that pricked her skin with every syllable. Her brows drew together slowly, confusion and old pain crossing her face in waves as memories she had carefully buried deep within herself clawed their way violently back to the surface. Four months ago, the night rain had been absolutely relentless, pouring down in thick sheets that soaked the pavement and blurred the city lights into long streaks of white and gold. The world had been reduced to water and darkness, but Julia hadn't cared. She had chased after Jack's car barefoot, her slippers forgotten somewhere far behind her on the wet sidewalk. Her lungs burned with exertion, her chest ached with desperation, but she didn't stop running until her trembling fingers finally wrapped around the damp sleeve of his expensive coat as he reached to unlock his car door."I swear I didn't hit Lisa," she

    “Stop!”The single word thundered through the banquet hall like a gunshot. Conversations died instantly. The screams that had filled the air seconds earlier were swallowed whole, replaced by a stunned, suffocating silence. Every head turned at once toward the entrance.A tall man stepped in, his presence commanding without effort. He was dressed in a sharply tailored dark suit, his movements calm, measured, and unhurried, as though chaos had not been unfolding moments earlier. His eyes were cold, observant, and piercing, sweeping across the hall with quiet authority.“Jack Collins?” voices rose in unison from different corners of the hall, disbelief thick in the air.Whispers followed immediately, overlapping each other in a restless wave.“That’s Jack Collins.”“He’s really here?”“He’s one of the top elites in New York, on par with William Austin.”A woman leaned toward her companion, lowering her voice but failing to hide her excitement. “He recently partnered with Hurst Corp.

    "Julia, you've mastered the art of emotional blackmail," Bosco snapped, his voice hoarse and ragged but still somehow dripping with arrogance despite the fear that lingered visibly in his eyes. Even now, cornered and desperate, he clung to his superiority like a drowning man clutching driftwood.Julia's gaze hardened into something cold and sharp. She took a slow, deliberate step closer to him, folding her arms across her chest once more. "Bosco," she said coolly, each word precise and cutting, "it truly baffles me how you can be this confident that everything in this world revolves around you." Her lips curled slightly at the corners, not quite a smile but something far more dangerous. "You honestly believe I would destroy a woman's birthday celebration, risk the wrath of William Austin himself, and expose my own scars just to gain your attention?"Her words landed like consecutive slaps across his face.William let out a low, genuinely amused laugh beside her, shaking his head s

    "Stop! Please!" Gavin screamed, his voice cracking with desperation as he flapped both hands wildly through the air. The motion was frantic, erratic, as though the sheer force of his panic could somehow halt what was coming. His face had twisted into something unrecognizable. Gone was the arrogance that had always defined him, that smug superiority he wore like armor. Now there was only raw, unfiltered terror. Sweat beaded across his forehead, mixing with the blood that had already begun to dry in dark streaks along his temple. His knees buckled slightly, trembling under the weight of fear that had finally crushed what remained of his pride."Julia, stop Mr. Austin now!" he shouted hoarsely, his voice breaking as he whirled toward her. His eyes were wide, pleading, searching her face for any hint of mercy. She was his last lifeline, his final desperate hope in a situation that had spiraled completely beyond his control.Julia stood exactly where she had been standing moments bef

    The atmosphere in the hall grew thicker, hotter, and more suffocating with every passing second. The air seemed to vibrate with tension, pressing down on everyone like an invisible weight. William's men, holding their belts like weapons of judgment, moved forward with slow, steady steps that echoed fear into every corner. Each footfall against the marble sounded like a countdown to reckoning. The Reynolds kept staggering backward as a family, huddled together in their expensive clothing now wrinkled and stained, pale and trembling like cornered animals.Elliot was the first to break under the pressure.His voice shook so violently it almost cracked. "Mr. Austin—wait! Please!" he yelled, stretching his hands out desperately as if he could push the danger away. His legs wobbled beneath him, but he continued moving backward with his family, nearly tripping over his own feet. "We're Julia's family!" he blurted out in pure desperation. "Please spare us for her sake… okay? Please?"Behin
