Semua Bab My Invincible Husband Has Returned: Bab 231 - Bab 240

Out of nowhere, the suited enforcers stepped aside, clearing a path. Eaden walked through, calm as a cucumber, stopping at the private room's entrance. He gave Quim a look that could kill, the dark threat in his eyes unmistakable. He said in an even tone, "Quim, you think you can just waltz into Drunham City and turn it on its head? Who do you think you are, going after Mr. Cole like that? You want to throw down, you gotta get past me, Eaden, first!" His words were calm. However, they carried a force that swept through the room like a tidal wave.Eaden's entrance made Quim's face fall.They sent a clear threat that Quim could not ignore. His eyes blazed with anger and a fierce fire as he snapped, "Mr. Wafer, that punk hurt my daughter and killed some of my men! There's no way I'm letting him off the hook today. I don't care what he means to you. Today, I'm dealing with him! Don't think your presence here changes anything, Mr. Wafer. Even if the king himself showed up, I'd make him

Quim was in full-blown panic mode.He shot Eaden with a look filled with suspicion and confusion. "Was it you?""Did you conspire with Howard against me?"It was not just a question, Quim was convinced of it.The timing was too perfect.Eaden just chuckled at Quim's accusation and shot back, "Still thinking of taking down Mr. Cole, are you?""You really don't get it, do you? I couldn't possibly pull strings with Mr. Mosier. This was all Mr. Cole's idea."That revelation hit Quim like a ton of bricks. It was him! He spun around to see Liam, then lounging on the couch, leisurely enjoying his wine. Before him, Samara, Yanely, and the others stood in line, bowing deeply, their faces ashen and bodies shaking, too scared to even lift their heads.They were petrified, regretting why they ever agreed to come to tonight's party with Samara, why they had taken part in shaming Celena.They had never seen anything like that before. They thought they were just going to a party to give Cele

Ignoring her wounds, Billie crawled over to Liam, apologizing just as fervently as Quim while spilling all of Samara's dirty secrets."Mr. Cole! I'm so sorry, I shouldn't have let myself be swayed, to go along with them in tormenting your wife! Please, spare my dad and me! I was wrong to underestimate you and wrong to harm Celena! It was all Samara's doing, she's the one who brought us here, and told us to pick on your wife! She was about to rip off Celena's clothes just now... to throw..."Liam's eyes turned to ice, his piercing gaze fixed on Billie as he asked in a chilling tone, "Rip off the clothes... and throw what?""Samara vowed to strip Celena bare and toss her out for all to see, to reveal the famed beauty of Drunham City! Mr. Cole, it was all Samara's doing!" True friends, huh? Those were only true when it did not cost them anything. However, Billie, desperate for a lifeline, threw Samara under the bus!Already roughed up by Liam, Samara quivered on the floor. Billie's

Yafe was perched on the couch, furiously jabbing a finger at Celena, his voice laced with anger and his mind racing with worry. The Fabish family, a big name in Drunham City's hotel scene, was neck and neck with the Stones, and they had ties that ran deep.The Fabish family was not just any client; they were top-tier for the Stones. If they pulled the plug on their partnership, the Stones would take a serious hit.Celena, her face a canvas of makeup trying to mask last night's bruises, could not quite hide the damage. Yafe's outburst left her looking like a deer in headlights, fear and anxiety written all over her.Sherah let out a disdainful snort before laying into her, "Celena, you're nothing but trouble. Always rubbing people the wrong way! Lucky for us, Quim and Eaden, along with Mr. Wafer, are too busy with their own turf wars. Quim's behind bars now, thank goodness. If he weren't, with the way he operates, we'd be bracing for a storm of payback!"Reginald's face clouded over

Tucker's eyes darted through the crowd, searching for Celena. He scanned the room, but she was nowhere to be seen. His face tensed with concern, and he bypassed the customary handshake with Reginald, asking directly, "Is Celena here?"At Tucker's words, Reginald's smile froze, and a ripple of tension passed through the onlooking Stones, some barely concealing their glee at the brewing drama. What would Celena do then?He had barely set foot inside and was already on the hunt for Celena, ready to confront her.Clearly, Celena had crossed a line, for Tucker would not have brought his daughter along if it were not serious.Caught off guard, Reginald's hand hung awkwardly in the air before he withdrew it, his face darkening. He called out with an intense fury, "Celena, step forward now!"Always one to blend into the background, Celena lingered at the back of the crowd. Her slight frame was hidden behind the others, explaining why Tucker had missed her. However, before she could make a
