Upon hearing Nathan''smands, the hooligans who had their hands in their pockets suddenly


    brandished weapons out of nowhere.


    "H-How dare you?" Aidan''s voice trembled. He seemed badly shaken. "Do you not know our family''s


    standing in Belbanks? We''re just second to the Taylors! You''re only bringing trouble to yourselves if you


    mess with us!"


    "Haha! Even a kid knows that the Taylors are the wealthiest in Belbanks. But I haven''t heard of the


    Lovce family." Nathan stretched his neck to loosen his muscles.


    Then, he snickered. "Anyway, I''ve finally met the Lovces in person. Second to the Taylors, huh? I


    guess that''s only in Belbanks. Once you step out of this city, you''re a fucking nobody! Hahaha!"


    The other gang members joined Nathan in hisughter. Ss guffawed. Even Liam, who always looked


    serious, betrayed a grin.


    "You—" Aidan was at a loss for words. Joseph red at his useless son, who not only made a joke out


    of himself but also made the Lovce family into aughingstock.


    "Mr. Joseph, it''s not toote to change your mind." Ss decided to be civil. "You can''t afford to get into


    a fight at this age. If you''re beaten up, you might get bedridden for weeks!"


    "Go, all of you!" Joseph instructed his men out of anger. He could not ept being taunted by the


    Taylor scoundrels. "We will leave with Julien today!"


    "Damn it! This is the first time I''ve seen such a stubborn donkey! Guys, teach them a lesson!" Nathan


    barked.


    The men from the Ivory Gang immediately charged at the Lovces'' bodyguards. Soon, they were


    embroiled in a fight at the parking garage.


    Although Joseph and Aidan were shielded by their bodyguards, they emerged from the fight looking


    disheveled. The poor Aidan, who tried to put on an act of the good son, was kicked on the butt, pped


    in the face, and hit a few times by the stick, causing him to yelp in pain. His suit was in tatters, and so


    was his reputation.


    Ss was enjoying the fight when one of the Lovces'' bodyguards sneaked in front of him and


    attempted to punch him in the face.


    Before Ss knew it, he heard an agonizing scream. Liam quickly showed up to shield him from the


    attack and fractured the arm of the bodyguard. Then, he stepped on the bodyguard, whoy sprawled


    on the floor. It all looked easy for Liam.


    "Wow, Colonel, you truly live up to your reputation!" Gaping at the scene, Ss pped hard. "I dare


    say, only Jasper Beckett could rival your skills."


    "That scoundrel? Is he even this good?" Liam squinted doubtfully.


    Ss coughed in embarrassment upon recalling that he was the one who started calling Jasper names.


    It all felt rather awkward now. "Well, he''s not too bad. Let''s not forget, he was a military veteran."

    At first, Ss thought that the righteous Liam might speak ill of Jasper. To his surprise, Liam fell into a


    short silence before muttering, "Looks like Jasper Beckett isn''t entirely a good-for-nothing."


    "Ss! Liam!"


    The two brothers spun around when they heard Alyssa calling out to them. They watched as Jasper


    and Alyssa hurried over with Julien by their side.
