The Combat Department had finally acquired some leads regarding the underground arena in King City.Eric had also successfully completed his mission. However, the results were unexpected. It was surprising to discover that a legend was working under the owner of the underground arena. Pierce sensed that the arena posed a threat to King City and must be eradicated.Under Pierce's supervision, King City Bank operated with high efficiency. He aimed not to save the bank but to clear its debts. Premium assets were sold directly to other banks eager to take over.After a few days, Sylvia's savings at King City Bank were processed. After adding up the Hernandezes' savings, the total was around 8 to 9 billion dollars.Naturally, this caused Pierce quite a headache.After handling large transactions, Pierce finally breathed a sigh of relief. Now, it was time to address the issues behind King City Bank.During these days, the Combat Department also discovered some information. King City

Eric stood up and said, "Then let's go and help. After all, I have shares in Hernandez Corp.."Sylvia smiled at Eric's excuse.-At the Hernandez residence.Julius received unexpected news that the Calles and Lynars were resorting to drastic methods. Despite his disbelief, there was little he could do. The audacity of the two families indicated they had secured their connections.He gathered the Hernandez martial artists, counting fewer than 10 grandmasters.The Montgomerys alone boasted at least 20 grandmasters, and the Calles and Lynars would likely bring at least 10 grandmasters with them.Putting on his clothes, Julius sighed and instructed Nera, "You are from the Calles family. Andrew will not trouble you. Leave before they arrive."The lack of action from the Montgomerys meant they were left to defend themselves.Beyond financial issues, this was the crisis Julius had feared. The Hernandezes possessed premium assets, so the Calles and Lynars were willing to take the risk

Julius glanced at Rafael. "Do you think he'll come to help us? For so many years, I've been oppressed by your father. I knew he was in Salt City, yet I dared not go find him. Besides, I dare not face him."Julius admired Grace a lot. Ostracized by the Montgomerys, she relied on herself to become who she was today. Julius believed it was Eric who made her persevere through these hardships.And what had Julius done? After the Hernandezes separated him from Grace, they forced him to marry Nera.Julius sighed. "Rafael, you should leave too. It's over for the Hernandezes. Whatever the Calles and Lynars want, I'll give it to them on the condition that they promise to spare you and the rest of the family members."When the Hernandezes were in their prime, they could call in reinforcements. But once they declined, nobody would be willing to help.Moreover, Javier had exhausted the Hernandezes' connections. They should be thankful that their past allies didn't take advantage of them.Andr

Andrew and Curtis seethed with anger. Just as they were on the brink of success, Eric intervened."Mind your own business! Hernandez Corp. belongs to the Hernandezes, and Julius is the CEO. Whether to sell or not is his decision!" Andrew retorted icily.Eric smirked. "While I've never openly acknowledged my ties to the Hernandezes, I do own shares in Hernandez Corp." He gestured toward Julius, adding, "Legally speaking, if he were to pass away, I should inherit Hernandez Corp. as his heir."Andrew's face darkened. Eric's unexpected appearance tonight caught him off guard.Eric ignored Andrew, took a seat, and casually addressed the Calles and Lynar representatives, "The Calles family has recently risen to prominence, and the Lynar family is a second-rate player. So, how did you manage to assemble so many grandmasters?"The Calles and Lynars had brought along a substantial group of grandmasters. According to Eric, it seemed impossible for these two families to possess such a formid

"The space inside is too cramped to showcase our skills, so let's settle it outside!"The Locke brothers were unfazed. After all, Eric was with them.Julius couldn't help but sigh at involving Eric in this matter.Curtis burst into laughter, remarking, "Are you out of your mind? You're clearly outnumbered, and you still insist on fighting? Do you have a death wish?""What's so funny? The fight hasn't even started, and you already think you've won?" Matthew retorted, looking at Curtis.Curtis snorted. "Hmph! Cut the crap! Attack and take them down quickly!"Dozens of people swarmed in and surrounded the Locke brothers. Even though the two of them were highly skilled, they couldn't withstand so many opponents of the same level.When the brothers were surrounded, Eric took action.Julius felt a gust of wind, and Eric disappeared without a trace.Before anyone could react, Eric's punch sent a grandmaster flying, knocking down several others simultaneously."Take him down first!"

Julius watched in astonishment as the Calles and Lynars fled.Eric ignored Julius, turned to Sylvia, and said, "Sylvia, let's go back and rest."Sylvia nodded and approached Eric. As they prepared to leave, Julius called out to them, "Wait!" Eric turned around and said, "Next time someone pressures you to sell Hernandez Corp., tell them to seek my opinion first. Don't forget, I also have shares in the company."With that, Eric, Sylvia, Matthew, and Vince left the Hernandez residence.Julius felt uneasy as they departed. He had envisioned offering protection to Eric after assuming control of the Hernandezes, intending to make amends for neglecting him for nearly 30 years. Unexpectedly, in the end, it was Eric who had protected the Hernandezes.Nera approached Julius. "Regardless of the outcome, the Hernandezes are safe now, aren't they?"She sensed a coldness in Eric's demeanor. It seemed Eric had shown up tonight primarily because he had a stake in Hernandez Corp. The father an

The Montgomerys were rapidly expanding, boasting a considerable number of grandmasters in their security forces. Without Eric's intervention, the Hernandezes would have faced elimination.After some casual conversation, Sylvia's stomach growled. Her recent habit of staying up late had left her craving late-night snacks.Eric speculated it might be a sign of pregnancy, but a quick pulse check dismissed the notion. Despite both of them not actively pursuing parenthood, their current hectic schedules didn't make it an ideal time for children."Feeling hungry?" Sylvia asked as she grabbed a pastry.Before Eric could respond, Matthew burst in, exclaiming, "Madam, something's amiss. The police are on their way to arrest Mr. Eric."As his words hung in the air, sirens wailed outside the Montgomery residence.Curtis and Andrew joined the scene with wide grins.Grace would never tolerate their presence if not for the police's presence."Why are you here?" Grace asked with a dark express

"I didn't intend to pursue this matter, but now it seems that is not an option anymore."Eric turned, looked at Matthew, and instructed, "Matthew, call Captain Smithson. Have him send someone over to take over this matter. Also, check if the Calles and Lynars have engaged in any illegal activities. If so, handle it according to the law.""Yes, sir." Matthew took out his phone. He had some interactions with Miller and had his number.For Eric, there was a lingering doubt that bothered him. How did the Calles and Lynars gather so many grandmasters tonight?Even if the two families joined forces, they wouldn't have such strength.Eric's actions dumbfounded Andrew and Curtis. Who exactly did Eric ask Matthew to call? They sounded quite formidable.Eric ignored the two and glanced at the police officer."If I were you, I would wait here for a while before deciding whether to get involved in this matter. Of course, you can also arrest the heads of the Calles and Lynars first. Maybe yo
