“Yes, he really is!” Ronnie said with an affirmative nod. “Even if Dad’s judgment was off
and Emmanuel isn’t going to enjoy a meteoric rise, isn’t marriage supposed to be about
love? Since Julian has chosen Roselynn, why impose your values on him? Just listen to
my advice. There’s no forced happiness. Sometimes, we have to let the young ones
make their own choices!”
With that, he left, having said his piece as a sibling should. However, he wasn’t sure if it
would change his sister’s views.
After he left, only Althea remained. She lay quietly, staring at the ceiling. Her mind was
in turmoil, her eyes distant.
What Ronnie had said clashed fiercely with her long-held beliefs.
“I’ve always had the Summerton family and my children in mind. How could I be wrong?
I couldn’t be wrong! Everything I do is for Julian’s benefit. He’ll thank me eventually…”

On a different note, Emmanuel didn’t have much bandwidth for the Summerton family’s
matters as the Quillen family’s competition was approaching. Tonight, he was stepping
up to represent the Quillen family at the competition!
Little did he know, something was brewing behind the scenes.
Today, Yasmine quietly sought out Joe, the representative of the organizing committee.
Usually high and mighty, Joe surprisingly showed courtesy to Yasmin-even a hint of
humility. “Greetings, Ms. Morgan. Do you have any instructions?”
Thanks to the previous association between the Nuthana Martial Arts Association and
t’wa
the Airspace Group, Joe, being part of the Martial Arts Association’s management, was
one of the few who was well aware of the Airspace Group’s power and Yasmine’s
identity.

Yasmine was equally courteous, her demeanor showing no signs of arrogance. “Mr.
Wallace, you’re exaggerating. I wouldn’t dare to give instructions, but I do have a small
favor to ask.”
“Ms. Morgan, please go ahead and tell me what’s on your mind.”
“Alright. Tonight, a formidable contender from the Airspace Group will sign up to
compete. I’d appreciate it if you could arrange for them to face off against Emmanuel.”
Joe was slightly taken aback by Yasmine’s request. He was well aware that the
Airspace Group was established with the goal of gathering the world’s top mart
artists. And now, Yasmine wanted to have a fighter from the Airspace Group test
Emmanuel’s prowess. Is Emmanuel perhaps under the Airspace Group’s observation
Given Joe’s position, he was unlikely to pay much attention to the Quillen family. After
all, the family hadn’t made an appearance in the Nuthana Grand Martial Showdown for
30 years. He even doubted they could secure a spot in the qualifiers!

Who would’ve thought that a martial arts practitioner from the Quillen family would
catch the interest of the Airspace Group? That’s a tremendous honor for any martial
arts practitioner!
“Alright, Ms. Morgan! Consider it done. I’ll take care of this just the way you want.”
“Thank you.”
With Joe’s response in hand, Yasmine left without further ado.
Meanwhile, at the Onza branch of the Terence Group, Logan Collins, the head of t
Quillen family’s security team, was already here, nervously training in a training room
within the building.
He was a bundle of nerves. In the past couple of weeks during the preliminaries, he had
either attended the live matches or watched the recordings afterward, but he made
sure to catch every match. Back in Yeringham, he had no clue, but now, he realized the

world was vast and filled with countless skilled fighters.
Putting himself in the ring, it seemed impossible to secure a spot in the finals, no
matter what strategy he employed or who he faced. If he were just a lone fighter, losing
would be no big deal, but he represented the Quillen family. Losing in an embarrassing
manner would tarnish their reputation, turning them into a laughingstock!
