+10 pearls Their expressions turned peculiar when they realized that Benedict had been one step ahead of them.

They couldn’t help but admire the man’s quick thinking in seizing the opportunity swiftly.

Even though they were impressed, they decided to let Benedict take the lead, as it saved them the trouble of getting involved. They stood back and watched as the situation unfolded.

Suddenly, a commanding voice broke the silence. “How dare you cause trouble at the Chalker family’s territory!”

A swarm of b*dyguards swiftly rushed toward the scene, overpowering Benedict’s men and subduing them.

Angelina’s eyes sparkled with hope as she hurried over to the man who spoke. “Please help me, Dad!

I’ve only just taken over Jadeborough News recently, yet it’s already being destroyed. I’m devastated!”

The person who arrived was none other than Angelina’s father–in–law and Joseph’s father, Gerald Chalker.

Standing beside Gerald was a burly middle–aged man bearing a striking resemblance to him, presumably his brother.

The onlookers couldn’t help but wonder when Gerald had acquired a brother, as they had never encountered him before.

At that moment, Gerald strode forward with a stern expression, confronting Osmond face to face.

“Osmond Langdon, you may dominate the South River District, but who gave you the audacity to extend your reach to the North River District?” he challenged.

“Don’t you know why I came to North River District?” Osmond nonchalantly rested the sledgehammer on his shoulder and locked eyes with Gerald.

Gerald’s gaze hardened as he turned his head and glanced at Angelina. He then sneered at Osmond, “So are you doing this because you are frustrated that my daughter–in–law exposed your scandalous affair with Cordelia?”

Upon hearing this, the influential figures from the various prominent families of the South River District couldn’t help but show strange expressions.

Frustrated? Hardly. The Chalker family is about to face a great calamity, and we’re eagerly waiting to divide the properties in the North River District. Why would we be frustrated?

Suddenly, the burly man who bore a striking resemblance to Gerald stepped forward. His eyes were filled with disdain as he approached Osmond.

“Are you the South River King?”

“Who are you?”

Upon hearing his voice, Osmond immediately shifted his gaze from Gerald to the man standing before him.

In the next instant, his b*dy trembled slightly.

He couldn’t believe it.

As Osmond stood before the formidable man, he couldn’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of pressure.

A look of astonishment crept onto Osmond’s face.

Osmond, who had honed his martial arts skills and relied on them to establish his dominance in the South River District, was taken aback.

The person standing before him exuded an aura that was undeniably on par with his own.

He couldn’t comprehend how the Chalker family could harbor such a formidable individual.

Just then, the man spoke. “I’m Wilfred Chalker, Gerald’s younger brother.”

“Wilfred Chalker?”

Upon hearing this name, everyone was momentarily stunned. However, they soon came to their senses and exclaimed, “Wilfred Chalker, the man who went missing ten years ago?”

Tyson, the patriarch of the Chalker family, had two sons: Gerald, the elder son, and Wilfred, the younger son.

Ten years ago, Wilfred mysteriously disappeared.

The news of his disappearance had caused a tremendous stir at the time. The Jadeborough News dedicated considerable coverage to the case, running missing person notices and updates for six month’s continuously.

No wonder the man before them seemed familiar, yet they were unable to remember who it was —it it was Wilfred, the one who vanished ten years ago.

Wilfred nodded and said, “That’s right, it’s me. I accidentally fell off a cliff but miraculously survived. I was fortunate to encounter a mentor and learn martial arts from him. Now, I have Inu, 25 Jan Kiss Chapter 101 The Missing …

“A martial artist!” gasped the crowd in shock.

Even Osmond shared the same reaction.

Although he had some foundational martial arts skills and could easily defeat a dozen ordinary people, it was insignificant compared to a true martial artist.

Wilfred’s transformation into a martial artist after his misfortune was nothing short of astonishing. It sent shivers down the spines of those who heard the revelation.

With an air of arrogance, Wilfred proclaimed, “I’ve returned to Jadeborough to consolidate the forces here. From now on, this city belongs to me, and there will be no place for you, South River King. Do you have any objections?”
