After Skylar’s outburst, a heavy silence settled over the room.

“Ryder, we have a situation here! Jeb and Karina have been seriously injured, and four of our bodyguards have been killed. I’m at North Plaza…” Skylar explained in a rush. 

Growing up under the influence of Lord Southmere’s methods, he understood the subtleties at play here. 

Simon, Trent, and Elliott–all with impeccable backgrounds–stood firmly on Robin’s side. 

Even if his father were to come, this would not be resolved on the spot, and it would only serve to offend these powerful families further. 

Eithan also realized that today’s fault lay with Skylar, who had tried to treat Robin as if he were a rootless commoner, a man to be bullied without consequence. 

Yet, that approach was clearly impossible now. 

At this level of influence, their aim was to resolve conflicts without causing others to lose face publicly. 

If they needed to take action, they would do so discreetly, from behind the scenes. 

With so many voices supporting Robin today, using direct force was out of the question. 

The wisest option would be to eliminate Robin quietly, in a way that Simon and the others could not directly oppose. 

In this situation, involving his father, Ryder Shaw, to handle the matter would be beneath their status, 

After a moment’s hesitation, Eithan leaned in and whispered to Skylar, “Mr. Fiori, let’s handle this as Mr. Cross directs. This approach will keep things more manageable. 

There’s an important military operation underway here soon, so it wouldn’t be appropriate for my dad to get involved right now. 

We can address this after the operation is complete, Eithan suggested cautiously. 

Skylar’s temper flared. ‘Eithan, how can you say that? If you don’t do it, I will!” 

Without waiting for further persuasion, Skylar dialed Ryder’s number. “Ryder, where are you right 

now?” 

A deep voice responded on the other end, “Skylar, is something wrong? I’m at the office.” 

“Ryder, we have a situation here! Jeb and Tina have been seriously injured, and four of our bodyguards have been killed. I’m at North Plaza… “Skylar explained in a rush. 

After listening, Ryder paused. “Skylar, I’ve heard some details about this. Hand the phone to Mr. Cross.” 

Simon took the phone. “Mr. Shaw, are you still tied up with work?” 

“Simon,” Ryder replied calmly, “what’s your plan for handling this matter?”

“I’m currently carrying out the military’s emergency orders to clear North Plaza. The Fioris issue will be addressed later.” 

“Understood, Ryder responded led, I’ll speak with Skylar.” 

Simon returned the phone to Skylar, who took it, still fuming. 

Ryder’s only instruction was, “Follow Mr. Cross’s arrangements for now. We’ll discuss it when we meet.” 

Skylar was stunned. Ryder had refused to intervene directly and instructed him to listen to Simon instead. 

The thought was hard to accept–his anger boiling beneath the surface. 

He was a member of one of the top five wealthy families of Brighton, yet his children had been beaten, left kneeling, and his bodyguards killed. 

And now, everyone was rallying behind the one responsible. 

How could Skylar, with his influence in Brighton, accept this outcome? 

Today, we can’t just let this go! 

If necessary, I’ll take this straight to the old man! 

Just then, the thunderous roar of engines filled the outdoor square. 

Glancing out the windows, they saw four military helicopters slowly landing. 

From the helicopters, three teams of elite special forces in combat uniforms swiftly deployed, forming two sharp rows as they entered the first–floor hall. 

Following them, another helicopter landed, from which four lieutenant generals, five major generals, seven senior colonels, and nearly 20 more officers–colonels, lieutenant colonel, and majors- disembarked. 

Nearly 40 high–ranking officers, accompanied by the clite forces, proceeded to the second–floor hall. 

At the head of this formidable procession was Hunter, a lieutenant general and the commander of the Special Operations Military Region. 

Walking beside him was Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Caleb, joined by Major General Jack of Dragon Palace, Deputy Commander Major General Trevor Holland, and Major Generals Wilson and Xavier, with a cadre of colonels following close behind. 

The sight left everyone on the second floor wide–eyed with shock. 

This was the entire senior command of the Special Operations Military Region in one place–an unprecedented, elite lineup. 

What could require such a powerful presence? 

Seeing them approach, Skylar, the Fioris‘ patriarch, rushed forward, waving his arms frantically, only to be stopped by two police officers.

Desperate, he shouted, “Commander Baxter, I am Skylar Fiori! I have something important to tell you!” 

Hunter paused, casting a cold glance his way. “You have something important? Wait your turn.” 

“Commander Baxter, I have urgent matters to discuss! Skylar continued shouting, undeterred. “Your former subordinate, Robin, killed my four bodyguards and seriously injured my daughter and son. I need to report this to you!” 

Hunter’s expression grew even colder. “I told you to wait if you have something to say. Didn’t you hear 

me? 

Two police officers immediately pushed Skylar back, but he kept shouting, “Commander Baxter, this is too serious, Robin, a general, actually did 

The officers drew their guns, and Skylar instantly fell silent, realizing that if he continued, he might be shot on the spot. 

Yet he could not bear to remain quiet. 

“This thug Robin should be tried in a military court!” 

Hunter stopped, turning back slowly with a piercing gaze.
