Beatrix had already alerted the police, and soon, police cars surrounded the building
where the incident took place.
Ashton, flanked by her team, hurried over to Emmanuel and Mackenzie, asking in
surprise, “Aidan is dead?”
Emmanuel nodded.
Ashton swiftly assessed the situation inside. Upon returning, she addressed Emm
and Mackenzie, expressing shock. “He died like a dog! I assume you killed him wh
was trying to harm your wife?”
Emmanuel nodded again.
Ashton nodded in agreedment. “Serves him right! Legally speaking, your actions could
be seen as self-defense, but the Tanner family won’t take this lying down. Prepare

yourselves. Things are going to get dicey from here on out.”

Not the slightest bit bothered, Emmanuel comforted Mackenzie. “You have nothing to
worry, Mackenzie. The incident with Tobias before is in the past.”
Mackenzie chuckled. This fool seems to have wisened up, showing more care and
consideration than before.
Ashton smirked and teased, “Alright, you two should head back. If I need more answers,
I’ll find you. I can’t handle all this mushy stuff in front of me!”
“Thank you so much for
your assistance,” Mackenzie replied politely.
Now that the truth was out, she no longer distrusted Emmanuel. Emmanuel treats
Ashton like a buddy. I shouldn’t see her as a love rival anymore, nor should I be jealous
of her.
As Ashton anticipated, Steven Tanner arrived at the Summerton family’s villa later that

evening with a group of men in tow.

Zaiden felt a sense of foreboding at the sight of the head of the Tanner family of Onza,
but still managed to force a smile. “Mr. Tanner, what brings you here at this late hour?”
Althea stood beside Zaiden, her expression solemn. She already surmised the reason
for the Tanner family’s visit.
“Hmph! Mr. Summerton, are you declaring war on us, the Tanner family?” Steven didn’t
beat around the bush.
Feeling the pressure, Zaiden struggled internally but managed to keep his cool. “V
would you assume that, Mr. Tanner? While we may not be allies, we certainly aren’t
enemies either. There must be a misunderstanding somewhere.”
In the past, Zaiden reluctantly took over the Summerton family. With a risk-averse
mindset, he cautiously managed the family’s social connections and business affairs.

He avoided forming alliances or making enemies too hastily, skillfully navigating the
complex web of relationships with care and diplomacy.
Despite being a branch established by the Tanner family of Zovince, the Tanner family
of Onza held significant sway. With two or three dozen similar factions nationwide,
Zaiden never underestimated their influence.
Had Julian not used the family inheritance as an excuse to push through the sale of the
Hadley factory to the Quillen family last time, the Summerton family wouldn’t find
themselves entangled with the Tanner family
“A misunderstanding, you say?” With a kick, Steven sent the table crashing in th
Summerton family living room, creating a deafening uproar that made Althea trem
Zaiden’s expression darkened. While he hesitated to provoke the Tanner family, it didn’t
mean he’d tolerate being trampled on, especially in his own territory!

While the Summerton family might seem focused on protecting their own territory, they
had hidden forces backing them, so they weren’t lacking in fierce, capable fighters. The
Tanner family would have to think twice before messing with them.
“The Quillen family killed my son, and yet your Ashton insists on shielding those
murderers. What else is that if not a declaration of war against the Tanner family?”
Zaiden was left speechless by Steven’s words.
Years immersed in business, politics, and military affairs had shaped Zaiden’s
perspective, diverging drastically from the norm. He knew all too well that fairn
justice were mere illusions in this cutthroat world, where power and force reigne
supreme.
Unaware of the details surrounding Emmanuel’s confrontation with Aidan, Zaiden
found himself unable to refute Steven’s accusations.

family to oppose us, the Tanner family, in Onza?” Steven continued to threaten, “While
the Tanner family of Onza might not carry the weight of a renowned name or an ancient
noble lineage, we’re still part of the Tanners, answering to Teddy Tanner, the esteemed
chairman of the Chamber of Commerce. Should anyone dare to challenge or cause
trouble, the chairman won’t sit idly by!”
“There seems to be a misunderstanding here. Please allow me some time, Mr. Tanner, I
assure you, I’ll investigate thoroughly and provide a satisfactory explanation.”
Feeling the pressure and under Althea’s subtle cues, Zaiden reluctantly concede
Steven’s demands.
