    Just then, four or five bodyguards in ck trench coats, whom William had earlier stationed nearby in case of an emergency, burst into the room. Who knew that William actually had some foresight?


    They were surprised to see rence lifting William off the ground with one hand around his neck.


    William was 5 feet and 10 inches tall, and he weighed 160 pounds.


    However, rence was able to lift William with only one hand. They looked at each other in surprise. How strong was he?


    These bodyguards did not have time to think twice. rence was choking William, and William was dying.


    “What are you doing?”


    “Let Young Master William go!”


    rence remained unstirred as he choked William.


    William’s face turned from blue to purple, almost suffocating. His eyes rolled back. “Forgive... me...”


    One bald man bellowed, “What the f*ck are you doing?


    “I told you to let go of Young Master William. You’re going to choke him to death.”


    Seeing that rence remained unmoved, the bald man pulled a folding stick out of his trench coat pocket, pressed its switch, and swung it at rence’s arm.


    rence’s expression sank, and he kicked it without even looking back.


    Thump...


    The bald man flew upside down like a sandbag, hitting the wall behind him. He shattering the Italian limestone masonry into a spider-web-shaped crack.


    “Boss, are you okay?”


    Theckeys hurriedly helped the bald man.


    The bald man spat out a mouthful of blood. He dared not attack again. He stared at rence in surprise. “Are you a martial artist?”


    rence remained silent.


    The bald man’s face seemed uncertain. “Pal, I can see from your kick that you’re no ordinary person. Are you a martial artist?


    “We admit defeat.


    “But since you’re a martial artist, you cannot attack ordinary people.


    “The Martial Arts Association has a rule that if martial artists attack ordinary people, they will be punished by the Martial Arts Association.


    “Let Young Master William go now, and I can forget this ever happened. You’re going to suffer if the Martial Arts Association gets wind about this.”


    The bald man thought rence was a martial artist, so he had used the Martial Arts Association to pressure him.


    He had no idea that rence had just activated his governing and conception vessels, so he was unusually strong.


    rence did not even look at the bald man as his wrist applied the necessary force.


    Crack...


    rence crushed William’s neck with a loud crack.


    “Young Master William!”


    “Hisss!”


    The eyelids of the bald man and hisckeys twitched as they gasped sharply.


    rence threw William’s body aside and calmly pulled out his phone. “Hello? Brother Wright, I’ve just killed someone.


    “Can you help me take care of it?”


    It was the first time rence had murdered someone. For whatever reason, his heart was racing.


    Despite that, he looked calm.


    “What? You killed someone…?” Julian, who was at the other end of the line, instantly turned serious. “Where are you? Don’t move. Secure the ce. I’ll be right over.”


    rence gave him the First Birch Hotel room’s number and hung up.


    The bald man and his men looked at rence in horror. They did not know rence. They could only wonder who the hell rence was.


    He had killed a man, yet he was still calm enough to call someone else to clean up his mess.


    The bald man felt his scalp tingle. They could neither leave nor stay, so they only stood by awkwardly, not daring to move.


    rence looked at Miranda, who was lying unconscious on the ground. He picked her up andid her on the bed before covering her with the nket.


    She was still unconscious and in shock. She had steady breathing and had not suffered any injuries.


    Fifteen minutes or soter, Julian burst in with a group of people, filling the corridors.


    “Mr. Julian?”


    The bald man recognized Julian and was now even more surprised.


    Had rence asked the vice president of the Martial Arts Association’s Mediterranean City Branch to clean up his mess?


    Julian walked in, and his men immediately subdued the bald man and hisckeys. “Brother Howard, who did you kill?”


    rence sat on the edge of the bed and pointed at William’s body. “Him.”


    Julian went over to take a look, and his expression turned a little grave. “William Keynes? The heir of Keynes Property Development Group?


    “Brother Howard, why did you kill him?”


    “Will it be tricky?” rence frowned.


    If Julian could not take care of it, he was going to ask Emmett to do it.


    Julian nodded, then shook his head. “It’s tricky, but not that tricky.


    “William might be hedonistic, but his father isn’t a simple man. Though he’s only the president of the Keynes Group, which is worth just over tens of billions of dors, the Keynes family in Mediterranean City is a subdivision of the Keynes family in Beth City.


    “William’s father is a son born to a mistress. He came to Mediterranean City more than twenty years ago. He had been said to havee here to develop his career, but he had actually been sent away by the Keynes family in Beth City.”


    Julian frowned. “However, the Keynes family has just lost an heir. Even if he’s only a grandson from a mistress...


    “It can be a big deal or a small one. Brother Howard, don’t worry about it. I’ll take care of it. Nothing happened today, and you know nothing. Keep that in mind.”


    Julian told that to rence as he instructed his men to put William’s body in a sack and get it out of the room.


    rence nodded earnestly. “Thank you, Brother Wright.”


    “You saved my life once. Consider this my repayment to you.” Julian smiled faintly and sped away with his men and William’s body, as well as with the bald man and his men.


    They left as quickly as they hade.


    rence and Miranda were now the only ones left in the room.


    rence sat on the edge of the bed as he looked at the unconscious Miranda. He sighed lightly before closing the door and leaving.


    Now that they were divorced, he did not want Miranda to know that he had killed someone for her.


    He wanted to spare Miranda from feeling that burden.


    rence also did not want Miranda to be involved in William’s death.


    After leaving the room, rence went back to the private room where River had been holding the dinner. The others had had enough to drink, so they made rence have a few more drinks when he got back.


    “Just wait and see.


    “I’ll be a better doctor than you.” Drunk from a couple of drinks thrown back after rence left, Ruby rushed up to rence and shook her fist at him.


    rence could not help feeling amused. His tension from the murder dissipated a little when he saw the state the girl was in.


    “Ruby, behave yourself.” Master Summers kept a straight face.


    It was not until 10 PM that everyone left.


    River had someone send rence back to Thirteen Hall.


    Early the next morning, rence got a text from Julian.


    [William’s dead. Car crash.]


    rence read it and deleted it.


    He decided to forget aboutst night. He would focus on running Thirteen Hall and standing aloof, separate from worldly affairs.


    However, things did not go as he wished. rence had just opened Thirteen Hall’s main door when a bloodied middle-aged woman rushed in, breathing unsteadily. She flung herself into rence’s arms. “Doctor, save me.”


    rence grabbed her wrist, and his expression changed. “Your meridians are broken, and your heart has shattered!


    “You have more than one hundred bone fractures. Were you hit by a car?”


    She was lucky to have survived such a fatal wound.


    The woman was now unconscious and unable to answer.


    Master Williams rushed out. “Master Howard, what’s happened to her?”


    “I have no idea. Maybe she got into an ident. Hurry up and save her..” rence scooped the woman up and headed for the backyard.
