Love At The Wrong Table

“Manny, why did you scare her like that?” Roselynn couldn’t help but tease her

brother as she approached Whispering Wanda with a friendly smile. “You’re

the shop owner next door, right? I look forward to working alongside you in

the future!”

“Uh, working together… right, well, goodbye!” Whispering Wanda, still shaken,

quickly scurried away. As soon as she left the mall, her gossip began. She told

anyone who would listen about how terrifying Emmanuel was, claiming his

malice was palpable and that he was probably out for blood. She even

suggested that his sister might be just as dangerous, warning that the two

siblings were definitely not people to be trifled with.

Meanwhile, Hank, having left Empire Heights Mall with Violet, finally exhaled a

long sigh of relief. His face immediately darkened as he turned to scold his

Violet was still confused. Everywhere they went, her fiance had always been

a formidable force in Zovince, crushing anyone who dared cross him. Yet the

moment he encountered that man, he had acted like a mouse facing a lion.

She couldn’t help but ask, “Darling, who exactly were those two? What’s their

story?”

Looking around to make sure they were alone in the alley behind the mall,

Hank lowered his voice. “That man is Emmanuel Lowe. You might not

recognize his name, but do you know who the martial world considers the

strongest right now?”

“Of course I do!” Violet replied confidently. As his fiancee, she was well–versed

strongest is obviously Mr. Gwain Lannister. After him, it’s you and Wyatt!

“Good grief!” Hank’s face twisted into a frown. “You actually believed the

than me, and I’ve only ever bragged about being third!”

“Hmph, you’ve always said Gwain was stronger, and there’s that Northern

Wolf Warrior who’s as famous as him, but you always said no one knows just

how powerful he is. That puts you right below them, right?”

“Exactly!” Hank exclaimed, shaking his head in exasperation. “I’ve never

claimed to be the second strongest–there’s always been someone above

her body trembled in fear.

“Now you understand?” Hank said, equally agitated. “It’s not that I’m weak-

it’s that he’s too strong! You were lucky he’s been in a good mood lately.

Otherwise, we’d both be dead by now! You have no idea how many people

that man killed in Eldoria!”

The more Violet listened, the more frightened she became. Her hands and

legs began to tremble uncontrollably, and she nodded frantically. “How wasT

trying to bully someone? We need to leave now before he decides to finish us

off in private!”

“Haha, that’s not his style,” Hank said, still a little shaken but trying to reassure

her. “Emmanuel’s not the type to sneak around. If he wanted to kill me, he

wouldn’t have hesitated. After all, he wiped out so many people back in

Eldoria in one fell swoop.”

“Even so… let’s just get out of here, darling,” Violet insisted, still not convinced.

She wasn’t familiar with Emmanuel like Hank was, and the fear of him coming

back for them weighed heavily on her. She just wanted to get as far away as

possible, as fast as they could.

Estate,” Hank said, dismissing his fiancee. He had more pressing matters to

attend to. After all, he and Wyatt had a bet going to see who could find

Roselynn first. Hank had only come to Empire Heights Mall to handle Violet’s

problem, worried that Wyatt might beat him to the punch and report it to

Gwain. But to his surprise, he had stumbled upon Roselynn himself, giving him

the upper hand. Now, he couldn’t wait to get back and mock Wyatt for his

inefficiency.

Smiling to himself at the thought, Hank drove down a small road, only to

suddenly find himself blocked by several cars, one in front and one behind.

-these people had come prepared, and there were multiple skilled fighters

among them. Every time Hank dodged a lethal blow, another assailant

attacked from a different angle. Even a tiger couldn’t fend off a pack of

wolves, and these people were using every dirty trick in the book, clearly

intent on killing him.

The fight dragged on, with Hank desperately trying to break through their

encirclement. Just as he attempted to force his way out, an unseen projectile

hit his leg, crippling him.

“Ahhh!” Hank screamed in agony. The group of attackers quickly swarmed

him, beating him until he was left for dead in the street. Soon after, one of the

men in black approached a black car parked at the end of the alley and

reported in a low voice, “Mr. Verkade, the job is done.”

Gautier nodded indifferently and gave his orders. “Clean up the scene. Have

the strongest among you deliver the final blow, and then make sure the news

gets to the Lannister family quickly.”

“Yes, sir!” The man in black responded promptly before carrying out the task.

Gautier, meanwhile, quietly left the scene.

Back at the Lannister Estate, Wyatt had been searching all day for clues

about Roselynn’s whereabouts. He had learned that she was in Zovince but

hadn’t yet pinpointed her exact location. Deciding to regroup, he returned to

the estate, figuring he would have more luck finding her the next day. After

all, Zovince was Lannister territory- Roselynn couldn’t evade them for long.

“Where’s Hank?” Wyatt asked as he arrived at the main house, planning to

check in on his rival.

“Seriously? He’s been out all day messing around with women and still isn’t

back? What about Mr. Gwain?” Wyatt muttered, his irritation growing. He had

half a mind to go tattle on Hank. Even though Hank was a first–class martial

servant in the Lannister family, he was still just a servant. Skipping out on

important duties to handle personal affairs? Unacceptable!

Before Wyatt could locate Gwain, a servant came rushing toward him, visibly

panicked. “Mr. Wyatt, terrible news!”

“What’s with the panic?” Wyatt scolded the servant, displeased by the lack of

decorum. The Lannister family prided itself on maintaining composure and

grace, even among their servants. Displaying such frantic behavior was a

disgrace.
