Zephyr immediately flew into a rage. "Rodney, you little bastard! I haven't even settled the score with you for messing with Aspen! After I take care of that punk Andrew, I'll be visiting Madblade Martial Academy too!" Rodney's expression turned cold. "Great. I'll be right here waiting for you. But honestly, I doubt I'll ever get the chance. After today, it's still up in the air whether your Bridgefields Stevens family will even exist." Zephyr's fury burned hotter as he finally saw it for what it was—these people had come together just to take down his family. Nonetheless, he was not so easily intimidated. "Mr. Garner, Madam Vostokoff, what's the meaning of this? Who is this 'boss' of yours? As far as I know, my family has never crossed paths with him." Natasha and Dylan exchanged glances before both of them let out mocking laughs. "Mr. Zephyr, who in the world gave you the confidence to bring your entire family here to Jayrodale without even knowing what's going on? You're h

Christina snapped. "The facts are right before us—how is it not? If you didn't pull the strings, why are all these people targeting the main Stevens family?" Andrew let out a mocking smirk. "Christina, you're underestimating me. I don't need to manipulate anyone—understand? I ordered them directly. That's not the same as manipulation." Christina's face stiffened. Direct orders? Was he seriously claiming he had the authority to command Marvin and Radiant Group's people? She did not believe it. Nonetheless, Andrew did not care whether she believed it or not. He turned to Zephyr and gestured. "Zephyr, I'll make this simple. Give me an answer—if I'm satisfied, you and your family can leave. But if I'm not satisfied, you're not returning to Bridgefields." Zephyr let out a bitter laugh, his anger barely contained. "Andrew, you injured Aspen and humiliated my family. Now you want me to give you an answer? Do you think that's possible?" Andrew remained calm. "You should ask your

Aspen did not even want to imagine what would happen if Andrew had personally taken action. Even Gordon, the strongest fighter in the Bridgefields Stevens family, had already fallen. Now, there was no one left in the family who could even dream of challenging Andrew. Andrew glanced at Aspen kneeling before him and smirked. "Aspen, I was more used to you standing tall, looking at me with that arrogant gaze, speaking to me like you owned the world." Aspen's body trembled, and she quickly shook her head. "No, no, Mr. Lloyd! I wouldn't dare—I truly know my mistakes! If you want to kill me, sell me, torture me—whatever it is, I won't resist." She continued, "I just beg you, please spare my father and the rest of the Bridgefields Stevens family. They only came here because of me! If anyone deserves to die, it's me, not them!" Andrew scoffed. "The moment Gordon died, you should have known when to cut your losses. But your arrogance blinded you, Aspen. So tell me, why should I spare

Since resistance was futile, there was no choice but to submit. Zephyr said, "Aspen, I swear I'll find a way to get you out of this hellhole!" Leaving behind that one sentence, he led the Bridgefields Stevens family out of Jayrodale in a state of utter defeat. Aspen watched their retreating figures, silent tears slipping down her face. As long as her sacrifice could ensure her family's survival, then it was worth it. Andrew glanced around. "That's enough. Let's head back." Without another word, he stepped out of the Stevens mansion doors. Christina clenched her teeth. "Andrew, what exactly do you plan to do with Aspen?" Andrew did not even turn his head. "I haven't decided yet, but it depends on how she behaves. If she's useless, I'll sell her off abroad and let fate decide the rest." Aspen, trailing behind him, turned even paler. Right now, she was nothing more than Andrew's property. If he decided to ship her off, she would have no choice but to accept it. As they lef

In the end, Christina grew frustrated and snapped, "Mom, stop talking. I already have a headache, and all this talk isn't going to change anything!" Irene pouted. "I'm just worried! Now that the main family won't back us anymore, and that little bitch Aspen has completely cut ties with us! The Stevens family has no one left to rely on! If that bastard Harvey comes back to torment us, what should we do then?" Leroy thought for a moment, then suddenly brightened. "Christie! Isn't Finley, the Moore family heir, still in contact with you? Back when Aspen was around, we had an alliance with him, didn't we?" He asked, "Why don't we reach out to him now? With his ties to Hidden Dragons, he could be the perfect shield for our family!" Irene's eyes lit up. "Yes! That's right—there's still Finley! The leader of Hidden Dragons is his granduncle. Also, he fancies you, right? Christie, think about it—if you can win over Finley, the Stevens family will officially have Hidden Dragons as our b
