Semua Bab My Invincible Husband Has Returned: Bab 681 - Bab 690

The four elders were all beside themselves with rage to hear this. "Who the h*ll does he think he is? What gave him the guts to say such a thing?""Outrageous! Does he think this city is his personal playground that he can come and go as he sees fit? How dare he take Connor and Keith hostage? We can't allow him to disrespect you like this!""Don't worry, Jay, we'll get to the bottom of this. I'll summon my troops right this instant!""This is unacceptable! Not even Malcolm would ever dare to commit such atrocity! Where the h*ll did this twat even come from, anyway? Does he have any idea who he's going up against? This is outrageous!"Jay was secretly delighted to have elicited such a response from his fellow comrades, but he showed no sign of glee on his face and instead said curtly, "Don't get ahead of yourselves, my friends. Listen to me. The fact that this young man could easily command Steven, the battalion commander of the Western Precinct, means that he holds some power withi

Jay was a former soldier, after all, so one glance from him was enough to make anybody's legs turn weak, and Steven was no exception. The four elders approached, scowling, and pointed at Steven. "Steven! What are you waiting for? Let them go right now!""You have no right to capture Connor and Keith! No one is allowed to bring Connor and Keith out of here. The only way you can do so is over our dead bodies!""Let them go right now, Steven!""Assistant, keep your eye on them both! No one is allowed to take them away without our permission, and if anyone dares to sneak them out of here, I will not hesitate to shoot!""I couldn't believe this was happening until I got here. What on earth is happening to this city? How dare a mere first lieutenant like you even dare to capture the Saunders brothers?"Jay's soldiers pointed their guns straight at Steven and pulled the safety. In a split second, the air seemed to turn several degrees colder as Steven's men stared down the barrels of t

Malcolm had brought a thousand of his best soldiers with him. As soon as they heard his command, they sealed off the entire area, including the adjacent streets. The citizens who were still loitering around the area were evacuated, and all the streets were cleared away so that no cars or people were allowed to enter or leave. Jay's expression darkened when he saw that it was Malcolm. "Malcolm, how dare you even order to have me captured?"Malcolm, however, did not acknowledge him and instead strode over to Liam. He adjusted his cap, then saluted Liam and declared, "Malcolm Lynch, general and commander of the garrison, reporting for duty, King Pendragon, sir!"Everyone was so stunned by this that they felt as though they had been struck by lightning. The Saunders and the elders, including the soldiers they had brought with them, all stared in horror at this. All sorts of emotions crossed their faces—initial shock, then excitement, then admiration and finally fear. Jay and his two so

Celena finally let out a sigh of relief and reached out to pinch Jovie's nose teasingly. "You're not allowed to say things like that in the future, do you understand? I was terrified for a moment there!"Jovie was a little upset at the fact that her mother did not believe her and instead thought she was just telling tall tales. She pouted, nibbling on her straw rather despondently, and muttered, "There were so many people there… Fine! I still think Dad's the bravest man in the whole wide world!"Celena smiled at this. "Okay, Jovie, I believe you. Your father is indeed the bravest man in the whole world!"Celena scarfed down the rest of her breakfast, then disappeared into the bedroom to get changed. By the time Liam and Jovie finished their breakfast, she had already gotten changed and was halfway out the door. Celena had only just gotten discharged from the hospital a few days ago. Liam recalled that the doctors had requested Celena to get some rest while she was at home, so he s

Even the ones who had looked confident about their muscular build all eventually came out of the interview room, looking despondent. One of these men even muttered under his breath, "Are they hiring a bodyguard or a punching bag? This is crazy… Absolutely atrocious! I'm never coming back to this h*llhole again…"Liam finally opened his eyes. At that moment, a woman wearing a tailored suit, a blue name tag, and black-rimmed glasses stepped out, clutching a stack of documents. She stopped at the door and shouted, "Next, Liam Cole! Is there a Mr. Liam Cole here?"Liam leaped to his feet and followed the woman into the room. The moment he stepped in, he realized that this was not an office he had previously expected. If anything, this looked more like a dojo!There was a giant arena in the middle of the room, not unlike those reserved for boxing matches, and a woman with a high ponytail, dressed in a white boxing uniform, stood within it. Although she had her back to Liam, he could te
