Ivana snorted in disdain. "I really shouldn't have invited her here if I knew she'd behave like this.”"It's alright.” Vicky smiled. "Let's eat!"

Even as everyone returned to the banquet table, Olive could suddenly be heard screaming outsidethe door.

"What happened?!" Everyone turned apprehensively toward the door to replace that Hubert hadreturned.

This time, he was accompanied by two middle-aged men. One could feel their presence from afar,and they were clearly brimming with energy, making it obvious they were all vigor wielders.Moreover, their fists were dripping with blood that were not theirs.

Crack!

A sick crunching of bones resounded in the banquet hall, followed by Corey's screams.

He then collapsed to the floor with an audible thud, as sweat gushed down his forehead.

"See? That's for standing up against me." Hubert chuckled coolly and turned toward Zorn, gesturingacross his neck with his finger. “Kill him."

"No!" Kiki broke down as she saw that Zorn was ready to do it and ran forward, crying, "I'll comewith you, Hubert! Don't kill Corey—he has nothing to do with this!"

"Oh, but he does now.” Hubert sneered smugly at her. "I warned you, but you didn't listen. Nowyou'll see the consequences of upsetting me!"

"Urgh..."

On the other hand, Corey closed his eyes in despair as he watched Zorn raise his fist, his heartwelling with endless regret.

He really should not have intervened—someone like him could not afford to challenge the Soranofamily. All the martial elites at their disposal could easily destroy him, and no one would avenge himeven if he was killed.

All he could hope for was one thing—that the Soranos did not take out their rage on his family.
