Mia stopped dodging. She clenched her fists, slowly lifted her arm, and placed it near the corner of her eye, her knuckles turning white. With a cold smirk aimed at Wesley, she declared, "Let the show begin!"

You've seen women in dresses dancing, and even women in dresses wielding swords, but never before had anyone witnessed a woman in a dress throwing punches. And yet, Mia managed to fight without revealing too much, somehow adding a touch of grace to her movements.

The Cedillo family was stunned, watching as if Mia had the ability to levitate. The image that came to mind when thinking of a roundhouse kick was usually a burly man with hairy legs, attacking his opponent with brute force and no elegance. But when Mia kicked, her movements were swift, her beige dress fluttering through the air, carrying an almost ethereal quality.

Initially, her family worried as she fought back, but soon, everyone in the yard was mesmerized. Wesley, lacking any real skill, flailed about in a rage, his attacks wild and without direction. Mia ducked, leaped, and flipped over him in a smooth motion. If Hansen wasn't holding his grandson, he might have burst into applause. The little guy was astounded, his eyes wide and unblinking as he watched his mom defend herself, unable to contain his excitement, "Ah-ah-ah!"

Seeing himself outmatched by a woman, Wesley's anger turned to humiliation, charging at Mia like a mad dog. "Ten minutes up," the timer, Jiang, announced. Mia puffed her cheeks, her lower lip slightly covering the upper, blowing a strand of hair out of her face.

Andre stood behind Old Walker, casually resting his hands on Walker's shoulders, "Kidnapping my son, joining forces with Tom, what were you thinking?" Old Walker clenched his teeth, "Any proof that I was involved in your son's kidnapping?" Andre picked up chopsticks from the table, pressing them against Walker's throat, his voice chilling, "At my age, I don't bother with evidence, I follow my instincts." After a moment of pressure, the chopsticks snapped. Andre scoffed, patting a shaken Walker, "Just kidding." Walker was visibly shaken, his heart racing. "Since we're old rivals, I'll give you two choices. A quick death or a miserable life. Pick one," Andre said, returning to his seat, leaving Walker in agony. He
