The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 440

After Caspian finished speaking, he picked up the landline on Willow's desk.

"Yes, is this the receptionist? Tell everyone in the company that Ms. Stewart will be busy for the next two hours. No one is allowed to come to her office. Anyone who does will be fired on the spot!"

After ending the call, Caspian smirked at Willow and said, "You have nothing to worry about now."

"Hubby, you're … so annoying …"

Willow didn't expect Caspian to do what he just did.

She felt so embarrassed.

"Wait a minute. Why did you say I'll be busy for two hours?" Willow asked puzzledly.

Clearing his throat, Caspian replied, "Isn't two hours the average amount of time? Anyway, let's get started. We haven't done it in the office before …"

He scooped Willow into his arms, and soon, their passionate embrace heated up the office.

…

"You were such a brute just now, hubby. Look! You ripped my clothes. I'd be mortified if someone saw this," Willow shyly grumbled as she adjusted her outfit.

Caspian had been in too much of a rush earlier.

Willow never thought she'd be having sex in the office either, though she had to admit it felt different from doing it at home—it was quite thrilling.

"Why don't we try something new next time?" Caspian suggested with a chuckle from his seat on the couch.

Willow's breath hitched. What did he mean by that? Were there other ways to do it?

…

Ace made it back to the TMAA's headquarters. The moment he arrived, he announced that he would be going into seclusion for a while and wouldn't be seeing anyone.

At the same time, the news of the TMAA's crushing defeat had spread all over Dhord City.

All the remaining members of the TMAA were living in fear.

Lately, Morrison Group went into a frenzy and bought over the TMAA's businesses at absurdly low prices.

When the TMAA refused, Morrison Group seized the businesses by force instead.

Even after returning to the TMAA, Ace didn't show himself in public, and barely any of the high-ranking members of the TMAA remained.

The TMAA was as good as dead since the ones still around were headless chickens.

All who bore a grudge against the TMAA used this chance to seek vengeance.

…

In the dungeon of the TMAA, Ace's expression hardened as he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

His face was pale, and his body was incredibly frail.

"Caspian!" Ace snarled through gritted teeth.

The TMAA was going through its worst crisis.

Ace knew full well what had been going on the past few days, but he was so preoccupied with his own condition that he didn't have the strength to care about anything else.

Nevertheless, seeing the way the TMAA was on the verge of crumbling apart gave Ace the urge to tear Caspian into pieces.

Just then, the low thud of footsteps rang out.

Startled, Ace turned around and growled, "Who goes there?"

A man wearing a cloak and a veil emerged.

Ace tensed up the moment he saw that man.

Despite being a supreme grandmaster and the chairman of the TMAA, Ace was just a pawn.

All along, he had been working for a mysterious person with the last name Lange. He didn't even know the person's full name and merely addressed him as Mr. Lange.

It was this enigmatic Mr. Lange who helped Ace establish the TMAA. He wanted Ace to expand the TMAA's influence to gain full control over Diatoran's martial arts world.

But Ace failed to accomplish that, and now, the TMAA was at risk of being eliminated for good.

"Did Mr. Lange send you here to kill me?" Ace asked through gritted teeth.
