Chapter 265
Hearing the order the room fell into a stunned silence. Even the Silver family men hesitated, unsure of how to respond to the grandmother's sudden outburst. At that moment Serenity's uncle looked horrified, his face draining of color. "Mother! What are you saying? they came here for serenity" he stammered. "I've done everything I could for this family!"
"Everything?" she shot back venomously. "Everything except fix the mess you helped create. Maybe losing your freedom will remind you of your responsibilities."
At that moment the tension in the room thickened, the air heavy with unspoken words.
The Silver family's boss stepped forward, his confidence returning as he smirked at the unfolding chaos. "Looks like the old lady's made her choice," he sneered. "Move aside, boy. We're taking them all."
However Ethan, still standing resolutely in front of Serenity, didn't budge. His calm demeanor only seemed to enrage the boss further.
"I said move!" the man barked, gesturing to his men.
Ethan's voice cut through the room like a blade.
"You can take them I don't care but not serenity? if you want to take her then go through me."
Hearing Ethan words The Silver men exchanged uncertain glances, but the boss waved them forward. "Fine. Teach this fool a lesson."
Without wasting anymore time the men charged at Ethan, their aggression palpable. The room erupted into chaos as they lunged at him, but Ethan moved with a fluid grace that seemed almost unnatural.
With a calculated step to the side, he grabbed the arm of the first attacker, twisting it with precision and sending the man sprawling to the floor.
Immediately another came at him with a punch, but Ethan ducked, countering with a swift elbow to the ribs that left the man gasping for air.
Seeing what just happened the rest of the men hesitated for a fraction of a second, but it was enough for Ethan to take control. He pivoted, delivering a powerful kick to one man's chest, sending him crashing into two others. Another tried to grab him from behind, but Ethan spun, using the man's momentum against him to throw him over his shoulder.
Every movement was deliberate, every strike efficient. Ethan's skills were on full display, a mix of precision and raw power that left the Silver men unable to recover. Within minutes, the once-confident group lay sprawled on the ground, groaning in pain and clutching their injuries.
Seeing what just happened the room was silent except for the labored breathing of the defeated men.
The York family stared in stunned disbelief, their earlier insults forgotten.
At that moment Serenity's grandmother's mouth hung open, her commanding presence momentarily diminished.
At that moment the weight of the room pressed heavily against Ethan as the realization dawned on him. If the Silver family discovered he was not only alive but also actively involving himself with the York family, the fallout would be catastrophic.
The York family was already teetering on the edge of ruin, and anyone connected to him could be swept up in the storm, Not after what he did to Their son, old master Silver will not rest.
Serenity. Naomi. Even the people in this room who didn't deserve his protection would face dire consequences.
At that moment Ethan clenched his fists briefly before relaxing them. His mind raced, calculating his next move.
He couldn't allow the Silver family to gain the upper hand by receiving any information about him from the men who had just fled. They were weak, but their information would be deadly.
Your next chapter awaits on My Virtual Library Empire
Straightening his posture, Ethan turned to face the room.
The York family members, still lost in their frenzied panic, hadn't even noticed the shift in his demeanor. Serenity was the only one who had her eyes on him, her gaze filled with unspoken concern.
At that moment Ethan's voice cut through the chaos like a blade.
"I'll be taking my leave now."
Immediately everyone froze, their frantic muttering coming to an abrupt halt.
Serenity's uncle narrowed his eyes. "You think you can just leave after causing this mess? Those men—"
"They won't get far," Ethan interrupted, his tone firm and unyielding.
"But if you want to survive what's coming, I suggest you start preparing yourselves instead of wasting time blaming others."
Hearing what Ethan just said.
The room fell into a tense silence. Serenity stepped forward, her brow furrowed.
She wanted tos say something when Ethan spoke.
"i will be taking my leave now."
