Chapter 250
A deathly silence fell over the crowd. No one had expected the Weller family’s power to be so overwhelming, nor for two masters from the Stevens family to fall so easily.
“How is this possible? They were supposed to be unbeatable!” Irene exclaimed in disbelief.
Leroy nearly, stumbled, his face pale with panic. “Our masters lost? This can’t be happening!”
Christina’s face turned ashen white. With the main family’s fighters defeated, Harvey truly had them cornered.
In her daze, she spotted Andrew in the crowd, remembering his earlier warning about the masters of Bridgefields‘ Stevens family being no match for the Weller family.
“So much for the mighty Bridgefields Stevens family,” Harvey gloated as he returned to the stage, contempt written across his face.
Few in the crowd dared to meet his gaze, which only fueled his satisfaction.
However, Harvey noticed one person still meeting his eyes with casual indifference, seemingly unimpressed by the Weller family’s victory.
“Andrew, you’re dissatisfied, aren’t you?” Harvey sneered.
“Showing off at your father’s funeral, causing such a scene, and thinking you’re so great,” Andrew replied, looking at him like he was an idiot. “Oh yes, I’m very impressed. You’re truly your father’s worthy son.”
“Save your sarcasm, Andrew,” Harvey snapped. Don’t worry, we’ll settle our score soon enough.
He then turned his attention to Christina and commanded, “Christina, I order you to come here now and agree to be my wife.”
Christina remained frozen, biting her lip as her body trembled with humiliation and helplessness. “Hurry up. My patience is limited.” Harvey’s voice turned ice–cold.
He added, “You’ve always been mine, and no matter how much you struggle, you’ll never escape me.”
His bullying tactics prompted protests from the crowd.
“Marriage should be based on mutual love. Isn’t this beneath a family of your status?”
“If you were a real man, you’d court Ms. Stevens properly instead of using your family’s power to force her!”
Harvey scanned the crowd with a cold smile. “It seems many of you disapprove of my methods. Well then, anyone who has a problem with it, step forward. Let’s see how well you can handle my fighter’s fists.”
Chapter 250
The righteous crowd fell silent immediately. While some might have matched Harvey’s influence, none wanted to face the Weller family’s martial might or risk making an enemy of the vindictive new Weller family head over the Stevens family’s troubles.
“Is there no justice in this world?” Irene laughed bitterly. “Won’t anyone stand for us?”
