Mike Colin was once a young man filled with great ambition, embracing fervor and aspiring to build a successful career, providing his family with a happy and fulfilling life. Together with his friend, he overcame numerous challenges, undeterred by obstacles, tirelessly striving forward, step by step, to establish the foundation of today's success. Within three years, achieving great success, earning admiration from all, East Site praised him as a talented individual regardless of age. However, as the tall tree catches the wind, one step towards success generated much envy and spite, leading to betrayal and forcing him to leave behind his beloved wife, wandering in exile. Three years later, returning alone, Mike Colin traversed through the harsh winds and bitter blood, his demeanor changed. From a failure, he transformed into a renowned warrior, commanding respect far and wide. Back in East Site, he concealed his identity, seeking revenge step by step, investigating... The truth behind it all was even greater than he had imagined...
The smell of blood lingered in the air.
The gusts of wind carried the scent of death, blowing relentlessly.
"General, the enemy has retreated from our territory, they are pulling back further."
Alex Liam reported with utmost respect.
"Tell Soid Liam to stay and handle the remaining matters. You come with me back to S city."
The imposing figure of the general always exuded an indescribable sense of authority.
He was the warrior of East Site, nobody knew his true identity.
Everything about General was kept confidential, only two people in East Site had the authority to access his files.
"Back to S city?"
Alex Liam's face showed a hint of confusion.
"Yes. We are going to leave tonight."
General decisively made the decision, turning back towards the mansion to prepare.
Watching his imposing figure, Alex Liam felt somewhat puzzled, but something seemed to become clear to him.
Everyone knew the fame of General, but few knew that this warrior had a past.
Before embarking on this military path, General was a successful businessman along with his close friend Adrian Ager.
But for some unknown reason, both of them were targeted, one ended up in prison, the other went into exile.
It was during his exile that General encountered his mentor, gradually becoming the renowned warrior.
In just three years, the reputation of General resounded far and wide, with East Site's noble clans wanting to ally with him and foreign powers seeking his friendship.
But perhaps due to past betrayals, General remained aloof.
In S city.
The Colin Villa in Lopes's clan.
"General, this is..."
Looking at that strange and magnificent villa, Alex Liam felt somewhat skeptical.
"From now on, don't call me General anymore, my identity is top secret. Call me Mike Colin."
Maintaining his usual imposing demeanor, but his voice softened slightly as he looked towards the villa.
This was his and Jasmine Lopes's home, she had suffered greatly for him.
He left her alone when they were targeted years ago.
He felt immense pain, and now that he returned in glory, he wanted to give her a good life.
"Let's go."
Mike Colin signaled to Alex Liam.
Alex Liam followed, his face showing daily confusion.
In the luxurious living room of the villa, the atmosphere was extremely tense.
"Jasmine Lopes, think carefully. Today, I'll give you two choices: either leave here with nothing, or marry Master James."
The elderly man leaned on his walking stick, his hair graying, exuding the authority of a patriarch.
Daniel Lopes, the patriarch of Lopes's clan, and also Jasmine Lopes's grandfather, was extremely angry.
"I... I don't like that Master James. He..." Jasmine Lopes struggled to speak, tears streaming down her face, feeling utterly pitiful.
Her useless husband had left years ago, leaving her to fend for herself and now she was being forced into marriage.
She felt immense pain in her heart.
"Anyway, you're already a married woman. How could I..."
"Quiet!"
The sound of the walking stick hitting the floor resonated like a command from the master.
"What's so difficult about that? If I want, you can receive the divorce confirmation papers today."
This was a signal to let Jasmine Lopes know that there was no room for discussion.
Daniel Lopes has been the head of the Lopes Clan for many years, and no one has dared to argue with him.
His words are like commands, to which one can only respond with agreement, not disagreement.
Accustomed to this, today's matter seems predetermined.
He only wanted Jasmine Lopes to marry for the benefit of Lopes's clan, the James's Clan was influential, they had many necessary connections for Lopes's clan.
He didn't hesitate to sacrifice a useless granddaughter for those significant relationships.
"Father... Jasmine Lopes doesn't like Master James... Everybody know... He... is... lewd."
Seeing the mocking gazes of other relatives, Jasmine Lopes's father, Hoden Lopes couldn't bear it.
Although he was afraid of this patriarch Daniel Lopes, Hoden Lopes only had this one daughter, he couldn't bear it, especially since her mother had passed away early.
"Keep quiet. What right do you have to speak here? You useless thing."
Daniel Lopes was furious.
Everyone around looked at Hoden Lopes and Jasmine Lopes, finding amusement in their misery.
In Lopes's clan, Hoden Lopes was always looked down upon.
Three years ago, when Jasmine Lopes married Mike Colin, she was seen as an outstanding young woman, admired by all.
They even showed respect to them both.
But ever since the Dragon Sky conglomerate of Mike Colin and Adrian Ager was taken over by others, with one imprisoned and the other missing until now, Hoden Lopes had been living in the house like a parasite.
Jasmine Lopes still had some capability working at Lopes Corporation, helping to secure many projects for the family, at least having some value.
Now she was even caught in the eyes of Master James, let alone mentioning his notorious debauchery, even if he wanted Jasmine Lopes as a tool for pleasure, Lopes's clan would gladly offer her up.
"Grandfather, I refuse to marry, absolutely refuse, even if Mike Colin is useless, he's still my husband. My husband is missing, I can't marry someone else."
"Nevertherless I don't like Master James."
Seeing the mocking glances from her own family, Jasmine Lopes looked at her father, pleadingly begging, feeling deeply saddened, she mustered all her courage to rebuke Daniel Lopes eloquently.
"You fool."
"Why does Lopes's clan have two useless fools like you?"
Each member of Lopes's clan added a comment, afraid that things would get out of control.
For the first time, Daniel Lopes was challenged by others, feeling his authority as patriarch was being undermined, he was extremely angry, his face turning dark.
"F***, useless things, you're both fools."
"I've raised you both to argue with me like this? That wretch Mike Colin is now a beggar somewhere, if you're rid of him, you should be celebrating, huh? And you, if you haven't done anything for the Lopes Clan, then don't hinder my family's advancement!"
As Daniel Lopes spoke, he used his cane to strike both Jasmine Lopes and Hoden Lopes's faces, then stepped on Hoden Lopes's body with ease.
Taken by surprise, Hoden Lopes fell, Jasmine Lopes hurriedly came to support her father.
"Grandfather, you hit me to take it out, my father hasn't done anything wrong. He's sick, please..."
Jasmine Lopes cried and embraced her father.
In this Lopes Clan, the father and daughter endured countless hardships.
But without any place to rely on, they needed expensive medicine for their father's illness. Jasmine Lopes endured the humiliation from the Lopes Clan.
They even took advantage of her, but she knew it was all for her father's sake.
"How dare you say that. How much expensive medicine has your father taken from Lopes Clan? If you marry Master James, won't everything be settled?"
"I won't say much. Either willingly come tonight to find Master James, or you and your father leave here."
Daniel Lopes sat down, his tone like a command, indicating that Jasmine Lopes would agree.
But because of her sick father, Jasmine Lopes needed to think it over.
At this moment, Hoden Lopes, unable to bear the pain, pulled Jasmine Lopes back, shouting loudly.
"No, Jasmine Lopes, you can't marry that villain. Even if I die, I won't let you marry that Master James."
Seeing this scene, Daniel Lopes furious, threw the teacup at Hoden Lopes, but it was too slow, the cup hit Hoden Lopes's head.
Seemingly not yet angry, Daniel Lopes raised his cane, intending to strike Hoden Lopes, and Jasmine Lopes, fearing for her father, quickly hugged him.
But the cane stopped in midair, unable to come down.
"Who gives you the right to hit my father-in-law?"
The voice was authoritative as if demanding Daniel Lopes to back off.
