Chapter 868 There Is Only Reverence
Rafael was anxious to secure the signed documents from Spike and Lucinda.
He had no clue about the purpose of Karter's visit, or even who he was.
Meanwhile, a number of unfamiliar people were coming and going in the ICU, causing a lot of noise, which was starting to get on his nerves. Infuriated, Rafael pointed at Karter and shouted, "What is this? Who are you people?
"This isn't some movie set! Are you just background actors? Get out of here!
"You're disrupting the Cravens' business, and I'll make sure you regret it!"
Karter froze, not fully understanding what was happening.
He had been so anxious about meeting the renowned Master Ramsey from Dragon Palace that he hadn't noticed Rafael and the others in the room.
Karter glanced at Rafael; then nervously looked toward Robin.
Since Robin remained silent, Karter, as a mere Plemouth captain, dared not speak out.
When Rafael saw that Karter wasn't responding, he stood up in anger and pointed at him. "What are you staring at?! Get out!"
"Take care of this jerk!" Robin's sharp voice broke the tension.
Karter immediately understood what was going on.noveldrama
On the way there, he had learned about Spike's true identity.
He had been silently grumbling during the journey about how arrogant some people could be.
Just because you might think someone is weak and easy to push around doesn't mean they're not someone powerful you
should avoid.
The Dixons and the Cravens thought that because of their connections, they can steal Delgado Enterprise. But what they don't realize is that they have sealed their own fate from the start-death and destruction. Jack, with a dark expression, pointed at Spike in the bed. "General Lynch, this is General Delgado of Dragon Palace!"
Karter bowed low. "General Grayson, I understand what needs to be done! Please rest with Master Ramsey for a moment."
Then he noticed the property transfer agreement in Rafael's hand and saw two thugs trying to force Spike's thumb onto the paper, Rage boiled inside him. "Enough! Stop it now!"
Karter slapped Rafael hard across the face.
The ICU fell into a tense
silence.
representative of the Cravens! You're asking for trouble.
Several bodyguards immediately rushed forward, preparing to strike.
Karter, truly enraged, couldn't believe anyone would dare challenge him in Plemouth.
"I'm Karter Lynch!"
"Karter Lynch?!" Rafael hesitated, trying to process the name. He had no idea who this person was. "Who the hell is Karter? You think you're important? Hit him!
"You're asking for trouble!" One of the plainclothes guards suddenly rushed in, pulling out a gun aiming it straight at Rafael's head. "He's the Captain of the Plemouth Guard. How dare you insult him!?" Rafael and the guards from the Cravens froze.
They had come here simply to handle a property transfer, yet they found themselves face-to-face with the Captain of the Plemouth Guard.
Amidst the shock, Rafael finally took a proper look at Karter.
This captain had been featured countless times in Plemouth's news-he was well-known to everyone.
He was the most powerful person in the Plemouth Guard.
Rafael and his men quickly bowed before Karter.
"Captain Lynch, I'm so sorry! I didn't realize it was your esteemed presence. It was all a misunderstanding. Please show mercy!"
Suddenly, Rafael noticed Robin standing by the window, arms folded behind his back.
"Captain Lynch, I swear I didn't mean to offend you! I was only cursing that kid-please, spare me!"
Slap! Slap! Slap!
Karter trembled, then swung his arm, landing a series of furious slaps across Rafael's face.
Rafael, stunned and bowing his head in shock, dared not utter another word.
"Anyone who offends Master Ramsey will pay with their lives!"
Four plainclothes guards immediately moved in front of Rafael and his men.
"Master Ramsey?" Rafael, panicking, glanced at Robin, now filled with confusion.
He had no idea who "Master Ramsey was.
But seeing Karter's actions, it was clear that this person was far more important than the captain of the Plymouth Guard.
Karter approached Rafael, picked up
the property transfer documents for the seaside villa, flipped through
them and shook his head in
disbelief Plemouth?
"Do you even know who General Delgado is? A Dragon Soul Twelve Great Warrior? You dare to seize his property?
"It seems the Cravens are about to meet their end."
Rafael and his bodyguards stared at Lucinda and the bedridden Dash, utterly confused by Karter's words.
"You idiot, let me make this clear! Mr. Dash here is General Delgado, once a national hero!
"Plotting against a general's family and trying to steal his property? You're all dead men walking!"
Hearing this shocking revelation, Rafael nearly lost his mind.
Dash is a General?
How could I run into someone with such a distinguished background and military power?
What kind of bad karma have I accumulated to get into this situation?
At that moment, Rafael could only wish he could cry.
Had he known about Delgado Enterprise's powerful background, even with ten times his courage, he never would've dared to oppose them. Now, regret gnawed at him.
He knew exactly who the Twelve Great Warriors of Dragon Soul were-legendary figures of immense power!
The Cravens didn't even register on the radar compared to them.
In front of such giants, the Cravens were nothing!
This disaster wasn't just his-it was the end of the Cravens.
After tonight, they would be erased from existence.
Outside, the rain poured relentlessly, the night wind howling through the air.
The chaotic Valentine's Day night raged on, filled with unease and tension.
Rafael bowed his head in front of Robin's back, begging desperately. "Sir, please spare my life! I truly didn't know who you were.
"If the Cravens had known your identity, they would never have dared commit such heinous acts..."
Robin slowly turned around, his
voice cold. "If he weren't a general, if tMaster Ramsey, whate

would you and the Cravens have
done? Content belong
"But in this world, there are no 'ifs. There is only reverence!
"Take them out and feed them to the dogs!"

Before Rafael could continue begging, four plainclothe guards immediately gagged him and his men, dragging them out of the ICU.
Lucinda, deeply moved, said, "Thank you, Master Ramsey!"
Robin gently took Lucinda's arm, stopping her from bowing, "Mrs. Delgado, there's no need for thanks.
"Please wait a moment while I attend to General Delgado."
He checked Spike's pulse, finding it weak.
Such symptoms could only be the
result of deep emotional turmoil

affecting his internal organs, throwing his body's balance into disarray.
Had Robin not arrived in time, Spike would have died that night.
Robin retrieved his silver needles.
Eighteen points of light, infused with vital energy, shot toward Spike's critical acupuncture points, piercing his body...
