"Greetings, Mr. Ruby Senior!"

It wasn't until those words were spoken that the Ruby family members came back to their senses and greeted Rowan. No one had expected him to appear in such a dramatic way.

They understood the reasoning behind his actions, though.

After all, if even Augustus could openly apologize to Felix, it was clear that Felix held an extraordinary status. Whether or not the Ruby family feared him was secondary, but they certainly didn't want to create a mysterious and powerful enemy unnecessarily.

"I've seen enough of the Ruby family's hospitality. It's not necessary to keep this up," Felix said coldly.

He sneered inwardly. Rowan clearly knew exactly what was happening. While he might not have orchestrated the events in the hall, there was no way he was unaware of them. If not for the Crayden family's appearance, this situation wouldn't have unfolded like this.

A dull thud echoed as Reid was about to apologize. He then rolled his eyes and collapsed to the floor.
