Mi marido accidental es ¡un billonario!

628 Chapter 627

Everyone present tensed up immediately, stepping forward as if they wished to take the punch for Brian.

Luke roared, “Dad!”

Keira furrowed her brows, her pupils contracting slightly, yet she didn’t step forward. She had already seen that Brian managed to dodge the blow, evading most of the attack. He ensured that the part of his body that got hit would only cause a minor injury.

Brian was struck and fell out of the fighting ring, which was a loss. He clutched his abdomen and breathed heavily.

The people around him, including Holly and Vincent, couldn’t help but step forward and surround Brian.

Holly asked, “Uncle Dawson, how are you?”

Brian chuckled, “I’ll live.”

He then looked around at the crowd. “Do you know where all these injuries on my body came from?”

The crowd was slightly stunned, shaking their heads.

Brian looked down. “Thirty years ago, when I was twenty, just like Luke, I went on a mission against a single person. He had stolen a large portion of Crera’s technological secrets, so it was crucial we intercepted him. By then, he had fled to a foreign country. That country used the same tactic, claiming he had violated their laws and detained him, preventing me from bringing him back…”NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

Brian’s gaze was downcast. “At that time, I took on ten men alone, using a method common in the Special Division, and eventually succeeded in bringing our man back.”

As Brian spoke, a silence fell over everyone present.

He looked at them. “What does personal honor or shame mean in the face of justice?”

Without uttering a word of blame, those who had felt ashamed about ganging up, thinking it would be dishonorable, now had flushed faces. Here they were, discussing honor and martial virtue. But had their enemy ever cared about such things years ago?

No… They could maintain a bit of dignity now because their predecessors had laid a solid foundation for them!

Holly said with determination, “I only regret not having learned martial arts. Otherwise, I could have stepped in to deplete King’s stamina, making it easier for those who come after.”

Luke clenched his fists, looking toward the people from the Special Division.

James shouted angrily, “If you don’t go up now, I’ll call the Freeman Sect. But it’ll take them time to get here; they won’t arrive immediately…”

Amidst the conversation, someone suddenly leaped forward, “I’ll go!”

Everyone turned their heads to see a young man ascending the stage.

Subsequently, a group of high-ranking Special Division members immediately stood up and formed a line beside the ring.

Both Luke and Holly let out a deep sigh of relief.

James glanced at Keira.

The people now taking the stage were less skilled and would only serve to exhaust King’s stamina. It was certain that they would all lose.

Seizing the moment while the bout was ongoing, James slipped beside Keira. “Sis, are you going up later?”

Keira narrowed her eyes.

She was waiting to see how things unfolded…

If Luke and James could beat King, she wouldn’t need to reveal her identity as the senior sister. But if they couldn’t win…

Keira’s expression turned serious, and she was about to speak when Holly coughed lightly. “Keera doesn’t need to go up. You all go ahead!”

After saying that, Holly gave Keira a meaningful look.

James hesitated for a moment, then gave a wry smile and lowered his voice. “But from observing King’s moves, I’m afraid Luke and I might not be able to overcome him.”

Keira lowered her gaze. “Don’t worry. Just do your best.”

James took the hint. He breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and then moved to the end of the line, standing in front of Luke.

Luke was startled. “You should be behind me.”

Since James was more skilled in martial arts, having him fight last would increase their chances of winning.

James, however, smiled. “I’ll focus on exhausting him. If you can win, that’s great. If not, no worries.”

James patted Luke’s shoulder. “Even though we both have a rivalry because of Kate,,I’m willing to set that aside today. If you win, you’ll gain great renown within the Special Division, and taking over will make perfect sense.”

Luke was taken aback.

He awkwardly turned his head away but didn’t say anything unpleasant.

One by one, the fighters in line took their turns. Each stayed in the fight longer, partly because the remaining fighters were more formidable and partly because King’s stamina was being drained… Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

A relay battle was indeed effective!

When it came to James’s turn, King had already begun to pant. The Special Division members were proving to be even more troublesome than expected. Fueled by Brian’s example, they fought with all their might until they were backed into a corner and then conceded defeat.

Seeing this, James turned to Luke. “I’m going to exhaust the last of his stamina. When it’s your turn, it’ll be your victory! Luke, I’m counting on you this time!”

After saying that, he jumped straight into the temporary fighting arena. James warmed up his muscles, waved to King, and said, “Bring it on!”
