Mackenzie nodded. “I studied their background after the fallout with the Tanner family.


    They have cooperated and colluded with various businesses in Nuthana with the goal of taking control


    of the Nuthana Chamber of Commerce. Over the years, the Tanner family has built many alliances,


    allowing neers to establish businesses and pledge their allegiance to the Tanner family in the


    name ofpany representatives.”


    Emmanuel said, “They might have also delved into our background and built a rapport with my uncle’s


    family to use them against us!”


    Mackenzie thought Emmanuel’s analysis made sense and said, “Whether or not o suspicions are


    urate, we must now remain vignt against your uncle’s family, too


    Upon hearing Mackenzie and Emmanuel’s discussion, Beatrix suddenly felt like she had walked into a


    trap. She would have avoideding along if she had known earlier.


    Shane and Frederick had only arrived by car when they entered the vi.


    “Look! Isn’t that Aidan’s car?” Shane recognized the distinctive purple car with a shy design at first


    nce.


    “Yes, that’s him! Should we just ram into him?” Frederick disyed even more eagerness than Shane.


    Caught off-guard by Frederick, Shane couldn’t help but nce at Frederick excitedly. He had never


    killed a person, let alone done this in such a bold manner!


    “Are you afraid? Let me do it, then!” Frederick might not possess Shane’s fighting skills, but he certainly


    had a hot temperamentpared to Shane’s. Given what Aidan h done toward Beatrix, Frederick


    could ram him to death.


    “D*mn it! It’s not that I’m afraid, but there’s just no way I could crush the Lamborghini into pieces with


    my old car! My car would cost far more than just one percent of the cost of the Lamborghini.” Frederick


    thought Shane’s reasoning made both logical and scientific sense, prompting him to scrape the idea


    lest he absurdly end up harming himself instead of Aidan.


    “Let’s tail him for now and wait for a good time to striketer!”


    “Agreed!” The two discreetly followed the purple Lamborghini to the vi zone with a sea view.


    The purple Lamborghini was eventually parked at the car park by the beach. Aidan got out of the car,


    still wearing his signature crafty grin.


    Just when Shane and Frederick were poised to confront Aidan, they suddenly stop d and swiftly hid


    themselves in a nearby alcove when they saw Yosef also exiting A vehicle.


    “What’s happening? Is Yosef Aidan’s personal bodyguard now?” Frederick whispered in shock.


    “Who knows? We wouldn’t be able to fight him now that Yosef is protecting him!” Shane felt helpless.


    Despite his martial prowess, he paled inparison to Yosef.


    “Hehe, Master Harper, after you!” The arrogant Aidan disyed utmost respect toward Yosef,


    recognizing him as the key to their family’s victory in the Grand Martial

    Showdown championship. They needed to ensure his loyalty to the Tanner family.


    Yosef remained impassive as he followed Aidan toward the beach. As they neared the shoreline, a


    dozen stunning girls in bikinis enthusiastically dashed toward them.


    What a time to be alive, surrounded by all these stunning girls!


    Shane and Frederick couldn’t help but gape as they observed from their hiding sp


    “D*mn! No wonder Yosef is serving the Tanner family! I wonder if they need any more bodyguards!”


    Shane eximed.


    Who could resist being surrounded by twelve bikini-d beauties vying for his attention? Many men


    would not even mind taking on the role without a sry!


    Frederick shot Shane a stern nce. Shane chuckled. “Just kidding! Brotherhood triumphs lust. How


    would I ever be part of the Tanner family?”


    “Isn’t it the other way round?” Frederick rolled his eyes and teased. “I never saw you as a reliable


    person.”


    “How could you say that? Everyone knows that I value loyalty above all else! I wouldn’t even bat an eye


    at these girls.” Shane beat his chest with righteousness, but he thought otherwise.


    At least thirty, so I can have a different one every day!


    “Master Harper, do these girls appeal to you?” Aidan smirked, “If you’re interested, I arrange a vi for


    you here and have them serve you every day. How does that sound?”
