Chapter 100
“Do you really think Lucy can help you make a stand in Starfield City?” Baldrick’s gaze was as cold as frost as he sneered, “You’re blacklisted, and it’s not just in Ardenweald.”
Susan’s breath hitched, completely stunned, watching Baldrick walk away with a sudden, indescribable unease
in her heart.
Her phone rang abruptly.
Without hesitation, Susan answered the call.
“Susan, who the hell did you piss off? Lumina Corporation just announced that anyone who hires you is declaring war on them forever!”
Susan’s mind screamed, all her rational thoughts vanishing. It was The Sandro Group!
Something clicked, and Susan’s face went pale. Could the rumors be true? Was the CEO of Starfield City’s leading enterprise, Lumina Corporation, also the head of The Sandro Group?!
No, she can’t be blacklisted. She needs Lucy’s help.
Beside the car.
Baldrick looked at Nancy with a complex expression, saying, “Nancy, I’m sorry you had to go through this tonight.”
Nancy shook her head slightly, replying, “It’s not your fault. My feud with Susan goes way back. As long as Susan stays here, it was bound to happen.”
“But…”
“Drop it.” Judson cut in impatiently, “If you really feel sorry for Nancy, then get rid of Susan.”
Under normal circumstances, Baldrick would have retorted, but this time he remained silent.
Judson took Nancy’s hand: “Let’s go home, Nancy. I’m exhausted.”
Nancy also wanted to go home. After all, encountering such an incident was a bit too much: “Baldrick, Judson and I are leaving now. You should head home and rest too.”
As Nancy opened the car door and got in, Judson had already started the car and drove away, as if worried Baldrick might say more.
Left behind, Baldrick watched the car drive off, then coldly took out his phone and dialed a number.
“Dig up all the dirt on Susan and Mathew, and the dark history of the Ryan family over the years.”
Anyone who dared to mess with Nancy was going to pay, he’d make sure of it.
Meanwhile, in the club’s lobby.
A group of bodyguards looked at the unconscious Kenny, exchanging puzzled glances. Just as they were about to carry him to the hospital.
Thud, thud, thud-
The sound of measured footsteps grew closer, and in moments, a dozen men in black suits burst in, quickly forming a tight circle around Kenny.
Kenny’s men froze, and just as they were about to intervene, a voice, casual yet laced with menace, rang out, “Either put Kenny down, or join Kenny in coming with me.”
The interrupted group turned, staring at the young, handsome man who had just walked in, almost devilishly

attractive.
With a wicked smile playing on his lips, he appeared completely unfazed and defiant.
Everyone in the room gasped in shock.
“Mr. Ferguson!”
The man was Michael Ferguson, the head of the Ferguson family, controlling all of Ardenweald’s underworld. His methods were brutal and decisive. To ascend to power, he had fought his way through blood and betrayal, earning him the nickname “The Underground Grim Reaper.”
“Right, looks like you know me~” Michael’s lips curled up in amusement, his narrow eyes landing on Kenny’s
men.
A fierce glint in his eyes, “Tell the Ryan family, Kenny messed with the wrong person. No need to collect his body.”
Messing with Ferguson’s woman? They were in for a world of pain!
