Chapter 833
Even Zephyr was starting to feel that he had miscalculated; maybe he had been too reckless. Of course, if he was feeling that way, then Christinaโs family was in an even worse state of mind.
โIs Andrew really capable of rallying so many powerful figures?โ Christina wondered as she clenched her teeth, her expression darkening.
If this was the comparison, then as the mere CEO of Stevens Corporation, she was nowhere near Andrewโs level.
Leroy swallowed hard, his scalp tingling as he muttered, โMom, Christie, it looks like the main family is about to get crushed. What do we do? Should we run while we still can?โ
Irene kept telling herself to stay calm. โNo, we have to hold our ground. Mr. Zephyr is the head of the Stevens familyโas long as heโs here, no matter how many people Andrew has, he wonโt be able to do anything to us!โ
Yet, even she did not believe her own words.
Suddenly, Dylan grabbed the glass in front of him and smashed it against the floor, shattering it into pieces.
โZephyr, Iโll say this onceโget on your knees, apologize to Mr. Lloyd, and wait for his judgment!โ Natashaโs voice was icy. โOr we can just wipe out every last fighter in your family and see how much of a big deal you really are, daring to come to Jayrodale to challenge him!โ
Rodney snorted impatiently. โMr. Garner, Madam Vostokoff, why waste your breath on him? Seriously, itโs just some second-rate family from Bridgefields. With Mr. Lloydโs strength, he could crush the entire Stevens family with a single step. And Zephyr still wants to act tough? What a joke!โ
Zephyr gritted his teeth, his face twisted in anger. โYou lot better not push things too far!โ
Rodneyโs temper flared. He stepped forward and, without warning, slapped Zephyr across the face. The crisp sound echoed through the hall.
โHey, old bastard! So what if I do push it? What the hell are you gonna do about it?โ He jabbed a finger in Zephyrโs face and openly mocked him.
Zephyr was shaking with rage. As the head of the Bridgefields Stevens family, he had spent years at the top and had never been slapped in the face. Yet now, it was not even a rival patriarch who had hit himโit was some junior punk.
โMr. Zephyr, since theyโre being this aggressive, why donโt we just start killing?โ one of the Stevens family fighters gritted out.
Meanwhile, most of the Stevens family members were utterly panicked. If a fight broke out, they knew they were outmatched. At best, the main Stevens family forces could go toe-to-toe with Dylan and Natasha.
However, Madblade Martial Academy and the men working for Jayrodaleโs wealthiest mogul, Marvin, would completely slaughter them. Zephyr understood the situation and quickly raised a hand to stop them.
He shouted, โNo one moves! Iโll handle this!โ
Natasha remained cold. โMr. Zephyr, the only way you handle this is by kneeling and bowing before Mr. Lloyd!โ
Zephyr clenched his jaw so hard it almost cracked. โFine, I admit it. The Bridgefields Stevens family walked right into this trapโwe got played by that bastard Andrew. But where is he? Let him come out and talk to me face-to-face.โ
He continued, โI want to ask him directlyโdoes he really think he can handle the weight of making me kneel?โ

Dylanโs eyes narrowed as a vicious glint flashed across them. He was just about to strike.
Natasha was fed up too. This idiot kept talkingโletting him kneel was already giving him a shred of dignity, yet he still dared to act tough?
Forget it. They might as well knock him down first and make him kneel later.
โHold it!โ Just then, a laid-back voice rang through the hall.
Andrew strolled in unhurriedly, entering the grand hall of the Stevens mansion alone. The moment he appeared, a wave of excitement ran through his people.
โMr. Lloyd, youโre here!โ
โMr. Lloyd, perfect timing! Just give the order, and weโll wipe them out!โ
โMr. Lloyd, you didnโt even need to comeโwe couldโve handled this in three minutes. If a single Stevens family member were still standing by then, Iโd personally take responsibility!โ
One after another, the crowd called out, eager for action.
Rodney was still fuming, glaring at Zephyr with undisguised hostility. โMr. Lloyd, donโt waste timeโjust say the word and weโll finish them off!โ
Before Andrew could speak, Christina let out a cold laugh. โAndrew, this is what youโve doneโstirring up all these people just to go after Mr. Zephyr. Have you even thought this through? This is Jayrodale. Sure, you have the numbers advantage now.โ
She added, โBut once the top fighters in Bridgefields hear about this, do you really think they wonโt hunt you down the moment you step outside?โ
Andrew glanced at her with a calm expression. โAnd when did you see me rallying all these people against Zephyr?
