By some twisted stroke of luck, Arclile’s manhood—though bruised and swollen–had not been completely destroyed. While he silently thanked the heavens, his hatred for Tiana grew even deeper.
That seductive married woman? He was determined to have her tonight, no matter what it took.
Just then, Jerry and a dozen of the Rhodes family’s top fighters finally arrived on the scene.
Jameson, seeing that his people were in place, narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “Mr. Hopkins, you really want to keep pushing this?”
Archie let out a twisted laugh. “Mr. Rhodes, your wife hit me. That punk by your side hit me too! Do you really think someone like me, who cares this much about his reputation, is just going to let that go?”
Tiana scoffed. “So what if we don’t let it go? Mr. Hopkins, you’re nothing more than a disgusting maggot. What are you going to do about it?”
Archie screamed, his face flushed with rage. “Tiana, you filthy bitch! Do you think you’re better than me? Tonight, I’ll make sure you beg me to stop!”
Tiana smiled slyly. “My precious son–in–law could wipe out your entire Hopkins crew all by himself. Want to test that theory?”
Archie froze for a beat, then turned to look at Andrew and burst into mocking laughter. “A nobody with decent fists? Kid, you’re nothing compared to the experts the Hopkins brought tonight.”
Immediately, over a dozen of the Hopkins elite turned their steely gazes on Andrew. The weight of their collective pressure was intense.
Even so, Andrew stood there unfazed—calm, collected, completely unshaken.
Jameson stepped in. “Andy, fall back. I will handle this.”
Andrew smiled faintly. “No rush, Mr. Rhodes. My people are on the way.”
Jameson blinked in confusion. “Your people?”
He found it hard to believe. Andrew had barely gotten his footing in Blumedale, how could he have anyone under his command?
Archie, already seething, snapped, “Hopkins crew, attack! That punk especially–I want every inch of him broken!
But before the Hopkins men could move, a fleet of black Mercedes vans roared up to the entrance of The Palace, blocking the road completely.
One after another, fierce–looking men in black uniforms stepped out, each one buzz–cut, stone–faced, and radiating deadly intent.
The doors kept opening, with each van packed to capacity. It took more than ten full seconds for them all to unload.
The sight stunned everyone in the crowd, including the Hopkins experts and the Rhodes family.
Jameson and Tiana both froze, their eyes wide in disbelief.
Lauren turned to Andrew in shock. “Andrew… did you call these people?”
Andrew replied calmly, “I wouldn’t say I called them. I just asked them to come talk some sense into the Hopkins.”

At last, over 100 Keller family fighters assembled neatly at the entrance. Logan walked to the front, his face stone- cold, his aura menacing.
“By blood and oath, the Kellers stand with Mr. Andrew Lloyd–my brother in all but name!”
A hundred voices roared back, shaking the ground. “The Kellers honor Mr. Lloyd!”
The sheer force of it made people go pale on the spot. And the direction of their salute? It was not toward Jameson or Tiana. It was Andrew–just Andrew.
Even Lauren was speechless, staring at Andrew as if she had never seen him before.
Tiana’s face twisted with disbelief. “The Keller family… damn! This little bastard is actually close to the Keller family, the top of the Five Apex Families! I thought I was already giving him enough credit. But now? I still underestimated him!”
Someone gulped audibly somewhere in the crowd, the sound jarringly loud in the silence. The bystanders who had previously been mocking Andrew started backing away quickly, their knees shaking uncontrollably.
Another whispered, “We’re screwed… we’re so screwed… That kid called in the Keller family. And not just anyone -Logan, their heir, even calls him brother? What the hell is this, an action movie?”
Someone said, “Let’s get out of here. Quit staring like idiots! I don’t care how strong the Hopkins are–in front of the Keller family, they’re just ants.”
“Tonight, the Hopkins are gonna take a massive loss. They messed with the wrong man!”
