Chapter 18 A Difficult Opponent

A bunch of burly guys stepped out of the black sedan, exchanging glances as they eyed the narrow gap between the white car and 

their own

The leader frowned, Watch out, this might be a tough one.” 

No regular person would park like that. A few inches off, and it’d be crash. The white car looked like a cheap knockoff, and if it hit their soupedup ride, it’d be toast

The door of the white car swung open, and out stepped Zoey. She leaned casually against the door, sizing up the men in front of 

her

Nice build, pretty strong. But 

they take a hit?she mused

Hey, who sent you guys?she asked, all casuallike

The leader wasn’t in the mood to chat, We’re here to take Miss King with us. We’ll let you go after noon tomorrow. Play nice, and you won’t get hurt.” 

Noon? Zoey raised an eyebrow, What’s so special about noon?” 

The guy stayed stonefaced

Zoey thought for a sec, Ah, the engagement party, right?” 

The leader’s poker face slipped just a bit, confirming her guess. Maya sent you.” 

Miss King, just cooperate,he said, clearly done with the small talk This 

is chick wi 

much 

was sharp, and he didn’t want her figuring out too 

Alright, let’s get this over with. I’ll take you all down and get my answers.” 

Such arrogance! The other guys couldn’t handle the taunt

Fine, Til take you on, the leader said

No need, all of you come at me,Zoey shot back

One of the guys, who had rolled up his sleeves, laughed at her. It had been a while since someone had been this cocky, and he was ready to teach her a lesson

This girl’s asking for it! What are we waiting for?” 

Get her!‘ 

The 

group of thugs didn’t feel any shame in ganging up on a girl. They swarmed Zoey, thinking they’d overwhelm her

The leader hung back, planning to clean up afterward. But he never got the chance

He watched as his men hit the ground one by one with their joints dislocated, groaning in pain

He stopped watching, his face growing serious

Zoey moved through the crowd like a dancer, light and swift, ench mive elegant yet powerful. In no time, only the leader was left 

standing

Zoey wasn’t even winded, just a few strands of hair out of place, Case on.” 

The leader wasn’t dumb. He knew his men’s skills, Didn’t expect Mi King to be a martial artist,” 

Are we fighting or not?She looked like she couldn’t be bothered with more words

The leader didn’t hesitate, I’m no match for you

Smart,Zoey thought, smoothing out her sleeve. Send Mayn a messige, tell her everything went smoothly.” 

Can I ask why you’re doing this?Even his tone had turned respectful

Zoey opened the car door, giving him a faint glance, Less talk, more action.” 

The leader nodded, watching her leave before turning to clean up the mess

The engagement party was a big deal. The place was decked out, and the guests were all rich and powerful

Jesse was in high spirits, mingling with guests in the living room, showing off his favorite grandson

People were offering their congratulations. Everything was set, just waiting for the bride

But they waited and waited, and the other star of the show never showed up

Don’t worry, maybe she got held up, lesse said, but he was starting to feel anxious

Maya chuckled, She’s not coming

Jesse frowned, What do you mean?” 

Exactly what I said.” Maya pulled Thalia closer, looking pretty pleased with herself, If there’s gonna be an engagement, it should be between Thalia and Henry.”

Chapter 18 A Difficult Opponent

What nonsense are you spouting? A line who framed others is fit to be my granddaughterinlaw

And Zory is?Mayn didn’t give a damn about Jesse’s opinion. She was dead set on ruining the engagement today, so she dragged Henry and Thalia into the crowd

Henry looked annoyed, Mom, you’re being ridiculous

Moms doing this for your own good. You’ve been putting up with Zory for Grandpa’s sake even though you can’t stand her. Don’t worry, Mom’s got this. Just as Maya finished talking, a slemler figure walked in through the door. 

With a long white dress, a cool demeanor, and eyes full of allure, her beauty captured everyone’s attention

Maya’s smile froze, and Zoey smiled faintly, I’m here to crash the wedding” 

Maya’s mind was spinning. The text said the job was done, so how was she here? What were those idiots doing

Henry, will you come with me?Zoey asked

Ignoring Maya’s fury, Thalia’s resentful glare, and the guests shock, Roey’s eyes were locked on Henry

Even though he knew she was doing this to spite Maya, and there was no affection in her eyes, Henry still couldn’t help his heart from skipping a beat. The answer came out without hesitation, TII go with you.” 

Zoey’s lips curved into a smile. They held hands, the cold and the bright, the strong and the gentle, standing together so perfectly

Maya was so mad at her son’s betrayal that she wanted to hit someone. She asked Zoey, How did you do it?” 

The people Maya sent were Zoey’s defeated subordinates, but they shouldn’t have been taken down so easily by an ordinary person, Those small try were too weak, not worth my effort,she replied

Maya realized this woman was really good at making light of things to infuriate people. Arrogant, if you’re so great, dare to spar 

with me?” 

Sure.Zoey agreed without hesitation

Henry reflexively gripped her fingertips, Are you really going to agree?” 

Zoey raised an eyebrow, Yes.” 

My mother,Henry ignored his mother’s glare, she was trained by rop martial artist, one of the best, ranked in the top fifty 

The Novaria Martial Arts ranking had a hundred names. But fifty was a significant dividing line, with a huge gap in between

Zoey’s expression didn’t change, It’s fine, don’t worry, I won’t lose you to them.” 

Henry’s good intentions were met with her retort, making him want to let go of her, but looking at her perfect profile, he inexplicably didn’t move

If we’re going to spar, let’s do it property. There’s a place in the backyard, I’ll have it cleared. Zoey, you both should change clothes, and a match should have stakes to be interesting.Jesse smiled, enjoying the spectacle

Zoey cooperated, You decide?”

Chapter 18 A Difficult Opponent

Jesse looked at her lovingly, hey understands me. A martial arts mach: stop at the point of contact, no lifethreatening or disabling injuries. The loser must apologize and shake hands. Can you do that?” 

Maya chuckled, Are you so worried Til cripple her?” 

Jesse looked at her meaningfully

Fine, I agree.Maya ignored the strange feeling in her heart, overly confident in her skills, not thinking she could lose

Zory, of course, didn’t object. Okay.” 

Soon, the backyard was cleared, and the two changed clothes and wed to the center of the field one after the other

The crowd formed a circle, knowing this was a match with no suspense. But seeing Maya, the top martial artist and disciple of Saul Pena, in action, the reappearance of longhidden skills, was enough to excite them

Jesse called out, Begin.” 

Maya 

shot towards Zoey like an arrow from a bow
