Chapter 329 The End for the Hoff Family
“Stand up, Alton. Have you captured your target?” asked Caspian.
Charles was left dumbfounded as he watched from the side.
“Yes, sir,” answered Alton.
Alton then stood up and waved back at one of his men. “Bring the target over!”
Two of the soldiers left the room and returned with a handcuffed young man in tow.
“Jean!
Charles was shocked when he recognized the young man being brought into the room.
It was none other than his own son, Jean.
“Dad! You gotta help me!”
Jean felt relieved once he saw his father, as if he had finally seen a glimmer of hope.
Charles was on the verge of tears as he asked his son what happened. “You should’ve been out of Diatoran by now, Jean! Why did you get caught?”
He had already made plans for his son to escape New Bay.
He had also assigned dozens of bodyguards to follow Jean. These bodyguards should have accompanied him out of Diatoran as per his order.
But now, Charles could only wonder what had gone wrong.
“Dad! Deputy Gibson had arrested me before I even left New Bay!” complained Jean while tears flowed down his cheeks.
He was arrested in broad daylight even though he was the heir to the most powerful family within New Bay.
He had wanted to retaliate but ultimately surrendered himself to the authorities under the pressure of having dozens of handguns pointed at him.
Jean was both surprised and saddened to find his father in such a grievous state..
He had already noticed that Hoff Residence was in disarray as he was being escorted into the house.
The streets outside the house were painted completely red after the Hoff’s men were all defeated in combat.
The men had all collapsed onto the ground and were wailing continuously.

Alton ordered his men to arrest all of the Hoff family’s men.
He saw them as nothing more than troublemakers in New Bay.
Dealing with them was part of cleaning up New Bay for a peaceful future.
The most shocking news to Alton was the fact that the Hoff family had ten eternal grandmasters working for them.
Charles had kept the existence of the ten eternal grandmasters under wraps so as not to reveal his trump card.
Alton felt that it was a pity that all ten of them had already died–their blood painted the entire floor red.
The death of ten eternal grandmasters all at once was huge news.
They were all established fighters who were powerful and respected, but they had never stood a chance against Caspian.
Jean scanned his father from head to toe and realized that he was seriously injured, his shirt tattered and his entire body covered in blood.
He was the only other person in the world that had known of Charles‘ true strength..
Jean also knew that no ordinary man could have possibly defeated his father in combat.
And yet, he could only wonder how thoroughly defeated his father had been to be lying on the floor.
Jean slowly looked up to find Caspian standing still with his arms folded.
Caspian was emanating a powerful presence that forced everyone around him into submission.
Jean wondered if Caspian had managed to destroy the Hoff family alone.
Charles froze for a moment before his eyes widened from realization.
The empire known as the Hoffs was on the verge of collapse. Charles had never in a million years expected something like this to happen. He had never expected someone so powerful like Caspian to suddenly appear in New Bay.
Tears flowed down his cheeks as he begged Caspian. “Mr. Lynch, please! I’ve never begged anyone for anything in my entire life, so please! Please spare this old man’s one and only son! I’ll do anything. I’ll atone for all my sins!”
