Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 2322 Strongest VS Strongest

Finished

The warship trembled, its hull groaning under the assault. Gunfire rang out, mixing with the deafening noise of the chaos around them.

Santiago quickly analyzed the situation, making up his mind in an instant. He motioned to his subordinate. “Get the fleet moving toward Chanaca. And prepare a small boat!”

The subordinate hesitated, confusion flickering across his face, but he obeyed without question.

Santiago strode to a nearby compartment. The sight before him was lay sprawled on the floor, their weapons no match for their attackers.

A figure stood in the midst of the chaos.

grim. Several Northern Region soldiers

An elderly man, pale–haired and full of energy, his presence as commanding as Santiago’s.

“It’s you,” Santiago muttered, his voice a mix of recognition and something harder to place.

“Of course, it’s me,” the old man replied, a calm smile on his lips.

“Long time no see, Santiago. You’re aging well. Still guarding the borders at sixty, huh? Not like those fame- chasing singers.”

“Don’t act like you’re not the reason I’m still here,” Santiago shot back. “If it weren’t for you and your kind stirring up trouble, my successor would’ve already taken over.”

Santiago stretched his back, his old joints creaking. “Haven’t moved like this in years. Guess the new year means I can’t escape a real workout. Let’s see if these old bones still have it.”

“Your successor?” The old man laughed, a low, mocking sound.

“You sure know how to pick them. That’s a quintuple–S class Legend’s bloodline, right?”

“Of course,” Santiago grinned.

“You think I’d just pick anyone? You’re not the only one still going strong, Helios. You’re my age, and here you are, trying to go toe–to–toe with me for Airspace Group’s interests. Looks like you’ve got the bigger gamble.”

At the sound of his name, Helios‘ expression softened, just for a moment.

“It’s the final showdown,” Helios Sheffield–Grey said, his voice steady, but the fire in his eyes told a different

story.

Before Santiago could respond, Helios‘ fist shot forward with terrifying speed.

The punch didn’t come for Santiago.

Instead, it unleashed a wave of flames straight at the door, targeting the Northern Region soldiers who were charging in to help.
