Chapter 1242 Grant’s Support Team
He was a true rising star of the nation, a prominent figure destined to wield immense power in the future.
As a mere martial artist, how could he dare provoke such a freakishly talented individual?
Even if he could win the fight, he wouldn’t dare.
“Why so quiet now? Weren’t you just showing off how tough you were? If you’ve got the guts, let’s have a little duel
and see what you’re made of!” Scarlet taunted with a stern face.
All eyes in the vicinity were now fixed on Zachary.
Zachary was in a tight spot. Surrendering would damage his reputation, but winning would bring even more trouble,
possibly drawing the attention of the high-ranking officials in the Martial Law Bureau and landing him on their
blacklist.

place?” Lord Thaddeus said with a serious tone.
“Your relationship with my father has nothing to do with me,” Scarlet replied without any courtesy.
“You…!” Lord Thaddeus was momentarily furious. As a Viscount, being shouted at by a younger generation like this
was quite a slap in the face.
“Alright, let’s calm down a bit,” Adam Spanner stepped forward with a smile. “Lord Viscount, we’ve come here
today not to cause trouble but to seek justice. You’ve detained some people who shouldn’t be detained. If you want
to avoid a conflict, it would be wise to release them. It’s in everyone’s best interest.”
“Adam Spanner, my lordship, we’ve always upheld justice and never resorted to illegal methods. Besides, today is
my grandson’s engagement day. How could we randomly detain people?” Lord Thaddeus denied the allegations.
“Lord Viscount, if you insist on playing a game, then there’s no point. You know very well what your family has
done, and it’s in your best interest to admit your mistake before things escalate,” Adam Spanner said with a forced
smile.
“Adam Spanner, son, you seem to have been deceived by someone. My family has always acted with integrity, and
I believe you’re mistaken,” Lord Thaddeus replied solemnly.
“Lord Viscount, I’ve advised you politely. If you don’t heed it, you’ll bear the consequences,” Adam Spanner’s smile
gradually faded. “My sister here isn’t as patient as I am. If you provoke her, she can make things turn ugly. You
should consider it carefully.”
“If you don’t believe us, you’re welcome to search the place thoroughly to confirm the truth,” Lord Thaddeus said
with an open hand, projecting an air of calm confidence.
His composed demeanor was quite convincing.
“Lord Thaddeus, I’ve tried to reason with you, but if you continue to be uncooperative, don’t blame us for being less

When the blade was already at one’s throat, resisting further seemed rather foolish.
“Don’t waste time talking to him. People like him won’t shed a tear until they see a coffin!” Scarlet impatiently
raised her delicate hand. “Men, let’s take this place apart!”
“Yes!” With her command, the elite forces of the Dark Panther Cavalry immediately began to take action.
“Dang! Let’s see who dares to move!” Lord Thaddeus roared, and his personal guards rushed forward, confronting
the Dark Panther Cavalry. The two sides stood face to face, tense and ready for a showdown.
The atmosphere crackled with tension and the scent of gunpowder.
Just as a confrontation was about to erupt, loud and resonant cries suddenly erupted at the entrance.
“Minister of War — Mr Byron Ironsides has arrived!”
“Commander of the Imperial City Army — General Lucas Bradley is here!”
“The eldest son of Duke Marcus Drake — Young Master Alistair Drake has arrived!”
And so on…
The cries reverberated one after another, deafening and echoing through the skies, making everyone shiver in
fear.
