"Boss, please don't act impulsively." Kingsley's voice sliced through the tension. He continued, "It's not worth sacrificing yourself for someone like her. If she harms anyone, I'll make her pay." Kingsley could sense Luke's seething anger.

Anger could drive a person to do anything, even regrettable actions.

If Luke assaulted Hillary, he would be dragged into the mess, a price too steep to pay!

Reading the situation's gravity, Joaquin quickly took the knife from Luke as he was also afraid his son would do something foolish.

Witnessing this, Hillary sneered, and her arrogance was on full display. "Hmph! I knew you didn't have the courage! Are you trying to act tough in front of Mr. Lawson? You're amateurs!"

Her disdain shifted to Kingsley. "Kid, you have quite an attitude! Who do you think you are to make me pay the price?"

Kingsley stared back at her, his gaze cold and unyielding. "You're the one who called earlier?"

"That's right. So what?!" Hillary crossed her arms defiantly. "Kid, let me tell you, I am Yulia's manager! I must remind you that her contract explicitly prohibits her from dating during the contract period. I caught the two of you together. She could lose her job and face a hefty penalty with just a word from me!"

As she spoke, she pointed upward, respectfully gesturing toward Kendall.

"Moreover, Mr. Lawson is currently interested in dating her. Therefore, I suggest that you leave now if you want to avoid any trouble. You must be aware of the power and tactics of the Lawson Family. If you do not have any sense of shame, then be prepared to face the consequences."

Kingsley sneered and curled his lips in response to the threat made by her. Ignoring her, he turned to Ethan, who looked terrified, and gestured for him to come closer. "Your name is Ethan, right? Come over." Ethan glanced at his grandfather for approval.

Joaquin shot a glance at Kingsley, then nodded approvingly. "Go ahead. Mr. Nicholson is a good person." Encouraged by his grandfather's words, Ethan kept a watchful eye on Hillary and approached Kingsley quickly. Kingsley gestured to Joaquin and Luke. "Both of you, please take a seat."

Seeing Joaquin and Luke slowly sitting at the nearby table, Hillary immediately grew defiant. She glared at Kingsley, asking, "Kid, what do you mean? You can't even protect yourself. Are you planning to stand up for them?!"

Ignoring her, Kingsley addressed Kendall, who had remained silent. "Mr. Lawson, right? You're here for me today. If you have something to say, come to me directly. Don't involve the Mccarty Family." Kendall looked up and sneered, his tone full of arrogance. "The kid dirtied my clothes, which was a minor issue. I only intended to punish him a little. Unfortunately, you spoke up for them, so I can't let them off so easily."

He shifted the topic seamlessly. "But... dealing with those worthless people can wait. Let's talk about you stealing my women."

"Yes, let's deal with this toad first!" Hillary glanced at Ethan, who was hiding in Yulia's arms, and shouted at Kingsley, "Since you're so keen on protecting this brat, we'll deal with you first before we handle him!' Her shout frightened Ethan, who snuggled closer into Yulia's embrace.

Yulia fought to suppress her trembling body, gritting her teeth as she spoke, "Mr. Lawson, I have no relationship with you, let alone being your woman! There's no point in talking about stealing women or anything like that. I hope you won't trouble us any further."

Kendall's gaze wandered over Yulia, filled with a playful and lewd expression.

Yulia felt uncomfortable under his stare and held Ethan tighter.

Tap, tap, tap...

Kingsley drummed his fingers against the table. "Mr. Lawson, are you here to confront me? Come on, show me what you've got."
