"Fuck off!" Bryce kicked the maid to the side as he marched in with his men.

Elijah hurried forward with a servile smile. "Greetings, gentlemen of the Shadowtiger clan. I'm Elijah, the head of the Smith family. May I ask why you have come?"

Despite being the head of the most prominent family among the top four, Elijah still hung his head low when facing the Shadowtiger clan.

The Smith family might be extremely wealthy, but the Shadowtiger clan was packed with outlaws. Moreover, they were acquainted with the Supreme Nexus, something Elijah knew better than to provoke. "We're under Mr. Miller's orders to take Ms. Smith back with us. Ms. Smith, please come with us."

Bryce seemed polite, yet his men immediately surrounded Lillian with a single gesture from him. They were prepared to take her by force.

"Mister, Kieran's injury has nothing to do with Lillian. If you must seek revenge, go after Sebastian instead," Elijah explained.

"Sebastian's your son-in-law, isn't he? You should be grateful that I'm not taking you all with me. I'll kill you if you dare to get in my way!" Bryce jostled Elijah to the side.

"Don't harm my family! I'll go with you." Lillian knew she had no way out. She could only follow them obediently.

Elijah and her parents dared not to interfere, while Jamie, Belinda, and Lucas cackled inwardly.
