Chapter 106

The incident left Jada terrified. She gulped, bereft of ideas.

"What are you afraid of? There are so many of us; one person can't possibly fight us all. I'm confident a third-tier family like ours can handle a hothead like him!" Victor glanced at his men, feeling more certain.

"Oh? Arrogant for a third-tier family, but even a first-tier family would be nothing to me!" Severin snickered. The Stones had forced his mother to kneel, slapped her, and beaten his father. He shuddered, imagining what might have happened had he arrived a second later. The years of his parents' suffering, their continued bullying, ignited an indescribable rage within him.

Diane, standing behind Severin, gasped at his fighting abilities. She hadn't realized he was so skilled. However, seeing the Stones' large number—over twenty people—worried her. While Severin could handle one person, facing a crowd was different.

"Break his legs!" Victor roared, clenching his fist.

"Charge!" His bodyguards surged forward.

"Halt! Who dares touch Mister Severin?" A shout stopped them, the angry voice startling them.

"Courting death?" Dozens more people rushed in, followed by Blade and Larry, the hall master of Draco Hall.

"Blade? And Mister Larry? Why are they here?" A bodyguard's face fell. They knew the strength of Draco Hall's first and second-in-command. Third-tier families couldn't afford to provoke them.

Victor's face fell as well. Severin's formal address—"Mister Severin"—boded ill. "Hehe, am I not allowed to be here? Your presence doesn't exclude ours." Larry chuckled, surveying the scene. "What's happening here?" [Remove the website advertisement.]

"Sir, we have a grievance with Severin, and we hope you won't interfere!" Victor bowed respectfully.

Larry ignored him, turning to Severin. "Mister Severin, what's the trouble?"

Severin smiled. "Patrick and his group overcharged tenfold at Jada's restaurant last night. Worse, they conspired to assault my wife. I sterilized the pervert, Patrick. Then the Stones decided to avenge him! Unbelievable!"

"Yes! They tricked me into a private room so Patrick could molest me!" Diane, relieved by Draco Hall's apparent support, explained loudly. She didn't know why Larry addressed Severin so formally, but their familiarity was clear.

Victor frowned. "Is that what happened?"

Jada bit her lip, glared at Severin, and said resentfully, "There was scheming, but Severin went too far in retaliation!"

Larry slapped Jada across the face.
