! Chapter 0548 I As Alonso struck, Callie's face went | ghostly white, and her eyes were closed.

| She was engulfed in despair, which chilled her to the core.

| Despite her noble birth into the Xanthos family, a martial tradition-rich lineage, Callie had only scratched the surface of self-defense. She had never delved into the deeper martial arts or harnessed her vital energy.

Her brother, Tacker, oblivious to the impending danger, crouched on the ground, cradling his head and emitting a pitiful chuckle, his words muffled.

It was a life-or-death situation! In front of everyone, Alonso lunged at the siblings. His right hand, fingers slicing through the air with a chilling force, was ready to strike Tacker's stomach.

| His left hand was balled into a fist and ! hurtled toward Callie's forehead —a blow that would undoubtedly be her demise, as | sudden and tragic as a shattered gem.

\ His left, balled into a fist, hurtled toward ! Callie's forehead—a blow that would | surely be her end, as sudden and tragic as a shattered gem.

However, out of nowhere...

"Quite the commotion here, isn't it?" A voice cut through the chaos, and a shadowy figure appeared in front of Callie with impossible speed, manifesting without warning.

There was a crisp snap! Alonso, in the midst of a pounce, was swatted away like nothing.

‘Alex! Alex!" When Callie saw the figure, she shook, her heart screaming Alexander's name.

, Tears streamed down her face.

)\ He was there, the man of her dreams, the man responsible for her father's death, a !" childhood friend, and the husband of another.

| "Itappears I've arrived at a bad time," Alexander said, landing with ease. He did not spare Callie a glance. Instead, he scanned the crowd. "However, when it comes to settling debts, timing is irrelevant." ""Ywain is gone, but his debts remain unpaid. Now, I'm here to take that 40 percent stake in the Callie Group," Alexander said.

A 40 percent stake? Alonso had just regained his footing after being knocked back by Alexander's powerful blow. He locked eyes with the other members of the Xanthos family, who were all surprised and suspicious.

, Who was the guy who had appeared out } of nowhere? | Alonso might not have been the family's | golden boy, but he was still in line to learn the Xanthos family's secret martial / arts. His abilities were adequate, and he | was on the verge of entering the Grandmaster league—a big deal in those parts.

That kid, barely older than a boy, had the ability to push him back with a single move? That was trouble.

"Who are you?" After recovering from his initial shock, Alonso's gaze became icy as he confronted Alexander. ""Ywain is dead.

What debts are you even talking about? I haven't heard of that.

"Besides, the Xanthos family is a big deal.

And 40 percent of the Callie Group? There are billions at stake. You think you can simply walk in here and claim it?

| "And another thing —Ywain owes you? ! Where's the I0U, the proof? You can't just spout nonsense and expect us to believe i it!" | He had a point, and he knew it.

| Alexander simply stared back, unfazed, and shook his head slowly. "There is no 10U. My word serves as sufficient proof.

Ywain harmed my friend, and 40 percent of Callie Group is the payback.

"He may be dead, but the debt's not gone.

The Xanthos family has to make it right." No I0U? The rest of Alexander's speech was lost on the Xanthos family, but the phrase— no IOU—stuck like glue. They rallied around Alonso, raising their voices in a chorus of outrage. "Patriarch, this guy is just stirring trouble for the sake of it, coming here to pick a fight!" "Yeah, the Xanthos family is no

| pushover. We have to teach him a ) lesson!" f ""Patriarch, just say the word. We might | not all be grandmasters, but we have plenty of fight in us. We can take him down easily if we attack at the same | time!" "Get ready, everyone. When Patriarch gives the signal, we'll move as one!"
