A Warm Marriage After Rebirth

Chapter 171: Chapter 171: Unleashing the Beast (4)

The Galloway Family’s auction company was one of the best in Sanford, and it made a significant contribution to the city’s tax revenue. But the Galloways had been acting more and more domineeringly, their competitive tactics growing increasingly dirty. They held a monopoly in the auction industry, making it impossible for other small companies to grow. This time, they had gone too far. Just because someone pointed out a fake, they had retaliated by beating the person so badly they ended up in the hospital! It was simply outrageous!

The unfortunate Miles Galloway had just been taught a lesson by Ronan Winters on the island, only to be immediately targeted by Corbin Yorke. With attacks coming from both legitimate and underworld figures, the Galloway Family’s predicament was easy to imagine.

Meanwhile, the one who had been kissed unconscious by Terrence Grant was recuperating in bed, completely unaware that her primary objective was nearly accomplished. Terrence Grant had resolved with just a few words what she had thought would consume a great deal of time and energy. But for him, it was all so simple. Such were the benefits of power!

Terrence Grant glanced at Seraphina Sterling sleeping soundly, then gently closed the door and walked to Logan Grant’s hospital room. Although Logan’s injuries were only superficial, they looked quite frightening. He would be fine in a few days, but Terrence Grant was still a little worried.

To the outside world, he was the Grant Family’s "Demon King of Chaos," who acted with arrogant recklessness and no regard for the consequences. Perhaps he had worn the mask for so long that sometimes even he had trouble telling which one was the real him. It was likely only in front of Logan Grant that he could take it off.

"Bro, what are you doing here? Don’t worry. Even though I’m all black and blue, I don’t have any internal injuries. It just looks scarier than it is! I was dodging while they were hitting me!" Not expecting Terrence Grant to come, Logan Grant shot up in bed.

"The conference will be over soon. Have you thought about how you’re going to explain yourself when you go back looking like this?" Terrence Grant leaned against the door, exuding all the authority of an older brother.

At the mention of going home, Logan Grant immediately deflated. ’If my family sees me in this state, the sky will fall! Especially Grandpa and Mom—they’ll definitely interrogate me until they have every last detail! The nagging... just thinking about it gives me a headache! And if those punks from the compound see me beaten up this badly, they’ll laugh at me for a whole year!’

’Oh, god!’ Logan Grant suddenly felt like his whole world was crashing down.

Terrence Grant’s face was stern. ’It’s a good thing I came, or Logan would have had a miserable time going back.’ "Don’t go back home," he said. "Go straight to the base. You won’t have a single day of peace next year. The military academy entrance exam isn’t easy. If you can’t pass it, you can just get your ass straight into the army!"

The mention of this instantly energized Logan Grant. "I’ll definitely pass the exam! I’m going to be just like you, Bro, and become the best soldier there is!"

"Then go to the base and temper yourself. Neither the academy nor the army is as simple as you imagine. This is the path you’ve chosen, and you’ll have to walk it yourself, for better or for worse." After giving him a meaningful look, Terrence Grant left the room.

’A soldier like my brother... that’s the life.’

The Grant Family only needed one Demon King of Chaos. He was enough.

Seraphina Sterling felt like she had been asleep for a very long time. It had been ages since she’d had such a satisfying rest. Between Apex Collections, the conference, and that troublesome Jade Bracelet, everything had piled up at once, leaving her mentally and physically exhausted. This long sleep had completely restored her energy.

She had already forgotten why she fainted in the first place. Just as she started to sit up, Terrence Grant walked in carrying two food containers.

Seeing Terrence Grant’s face—so handsome it could make gods and men jealous—Seraphina Sterling’s memory slowly returned. ’It seems... Terrence Grant just kissed me! And I didn’t refuse! And most importantly... it seems he kissed me until I passed out!’
