Waylon and Ruby grew more and more satisfied with their son–inw as the car slowly pulled up to the vi gates.
The guard spotted the special license te and quickly opened the gate.
Just then, another car suddenly shot out, swerving directly in front of Baron’s.
The golden emblem on its hood gleamed under the light, momentarily blinding Baron.
“Baron! Watch out!”
Ruby instinctively grabbed his arm as the car turned in. <i>This </i>is <i>my </i><i>daughter’s </i><i>husband</i><i>; </i>if anything <i>happened </i><i>to </i><i>him </i><i>because </i><i>of </i><i>us</i><i>, </i><i>how </i><i>could </i><i>I </i><i>ever </i><i>face </i><i>Natalie</i>?
Baron hadn’t expected Ruby to grab him at that moment. He hesitated for an instant, and the collision happened. <fn8c5d> N?w ?ovel chapt?rs are published on Find[?]ovel</fn8c5d>
Waylon immediately pulled Ruby into his arms.
The car jolted violently, but thankfully no one was hurt.
Baron turned at once to check on Waylon and Ruby.
“Dad, mom, I’m sorry.”
“What are you apologizing for? Some reckless fool came out of nowhere. Baron, are you hurt?”
Ruby’s first instinct had been to protect him; she feared he might have been injured.
“Mom, I’m fine. You and dad stay in the car–I’ll see what’s going on.”
Baron stepped out.
The other car door opened.
Jensen emerged.
The moment his eyesnded on Baron, they darkened.
“Baron?”
“Jensen.”

Baron’s voice was sharp and frigid, cutting like ice.
He shut the car door quickly and nted himself between Jensen and the car.
“What do you want?”
His eyes zed with a warning, fury tightly leashed just beneath the surface.

If he hadn’t wanted Natalie to sever her ties with Jensen herself, he would have thrown this man into the ocean long ago.
Jensen let out a derisive snort. “When I saw you at the press conference, I actually mistook <i>you </i>for someone important. But you’re nothing more than the Gunn family’s discard. With a status like yours, how could you possibly be worthy of Natalie? Divorce her now. Stay away from her for good. Cut all ties, never show up in her life again–and I’ll give you anything you want. I can even put you back in the Gunn family’s good graces, right at its core. What do you say?”
Pure disdain gleamed in his eyes, cold and mocking.
The Gunn family was a century–old n with deep roots; everyone in their circle knew, however, that its internal battles were ruthless and bloody. One wrong move could mean total ruin.
Jensen wanted to lure Baron back into that pit, let the Gunn family devour him; if Natalie demanded answerster, it wouldn’t trace back to him.
Baron read him like an open book and wasn’t buying a word of it.
On another day, he might have humored Jensen for sport. But with Waylon and Ruby in the car, and Natalie and the children waiting at home, he had no time to waste.
“Jensen, you’d better move–before I stop holding back.”
The lethal aura rolling off Baron made Jensen shiver involuntarily. <i>How </i><i>could </i><i>a </i><i>discarded </i><i>heir </i><i>carry </i><i>such </i><i>presence</i><i>? </i>
Jensen narrowed his eyes. “And what if I don’t? What can you do to me? You’re just the Stone family’s live–in son–inw; don’t tter yourself. And I’ll tell you this–I didn’te here for you. Talking to you was incidental. If you keep standing in my way, don’t me me for being ruthlesster. Now step aside! I want to see Mr. Waylon.”
He tried to push past, but Baron blocked him again.
“Jensen, don’t you understand innguage?”

Murder simmered in Baron’s eyes.
The more he looked at this man, the more intolerable he became.
Jensen still didn’t take him seriously.

He shoved Baron, expecting to knock him aside; instead, Baron didn’t budge an inch. If anything, Jensen himself felt the urge to step back.
His eyes narrowed further.
“So, you actually know how to fight. But even so, would you darey a hand on me? I’m the president of Luke Corp. If you hurt me, do you think the Stone family would risk conflict with us over a mere son–inw?”
He sidestepped Baron, reaching for the car door.
“Sir, Madam, I’m Jensen–president of Luke Corp, and Natalie’s boyfriend. Please, may I meet you?”
The sheer audacity of it made Baron’s blood boil, his vision blurring with rage.
At the words “Natalie’s boyfriend“, the brutality in his eyes nearly broke free.
“Jensen, you’re courting death.”
With a sudden motion, Baron flipped him over his shoulder, hurling him aside.
But Jensen wasn’t all bluster. The moment Baron moved, he steadied himself midair, twisting his body andnding squarely on his feet.
