Chapter 1611
“You don’t get to call the shots here!” Bennett sneered.
“Zayden'’s already signed Ariana’s fate to me.
She’s mine now, and everything she has belongs to me.
| decide when this gends.
He paused, his menacing demeanor softening a tad.
“But hey, since you've made the journey to Conata, | guess | can show a bit of hospitality.
How about this? Hand over Ariana, and you are free to go.
Holden couldn't help but chuckle.
“You think | journeyed all this way here just to hand her over to you? I’m here to make sure Ariana gets back to
Eleymond safe and sound.
She’s my wife.
Have you ever heard of a husband who tosses his wife to another man? Not happening! Every husband will
protect his wife at all costs.
After saying that, Holden's face darkened.
He didn’t care about confronting Bennett.
If it meant getting Ariana out of here, he was even willing to die.
“Too bad for you.

My crew would toss their wives towithout a second thought if | told them to,” Bennett retorted.
“That just proves your people are spineless.
You are, too.
Why else would you need to snatch someone else’s woman?” Holden countered.
The tension thickened, with neither man willing to back down.
Bennett, already simmering with fury, bristled at Holden's words.
His gaze turned lethal.
“You really think you'll waltz out of here unscathed? | don’t give a damn about your power in Eleymond.
This is Conata, and | doubt you can defeathere.
Otherwise, Zayden wouldn't need to cooperate with me.
“I know | can’t.
” Holden grinned faintly.
“That's why I'm not going anywhere!”
At that moment, the car behind him roared to life.
Seizing the opportunity, the driver sped off with Ariana still unconscious inside.
Simultaneously, Holden took out his gun, aiming it at Bennett's forehead, blocking his path.
“If you dare to send your men after the car, I'll shoot you.
Bennett's heart sank like a stone as he watched Ariana’s car vanish into the distance, his face turning dark with
rage.
He glared at Holden.
“Holden, just remember who's calling the shots around here! You think letting her go means she’s free? Without
my permission, no one is allowed to leave here! She'll still be stuck in this estate!”
Holden replied with a slight smirk, visibly more at ease now that Ariana was safe.
“I know that,” he said, his voice dripping with confidence.
“I acknowledge that this is your territory.
Otherwise, | wouldn't have chosen today to make my move.
As he spoke, Holden edged closer to Bennett, gun in hand.
Despite multiple guns pointed at him, Holden showed no fear.
He was confident about his speed, ready to shoot Bennett before anyone could shoot him.
“Don’t worry, I'm not here to harm you.
| don’t intend to meet my end in this place,” Holden explained calmly.
“So, what do you want?” Bennett asked warily, unable to decipher Holden's intentions.
“How about striking a deal?” Holden saw Bennett take the bait and changed his approach.
“You've been eyeing Eleymond for your arms business, haven't you? What if | told you | could help you with
that?”
“Is that all?” Bennett scoffed, unimpressed.

“Zayden mentioned something similar.
No wonder you two are family, spouting the snonsense! But letmake it clear; Eleymond isn’t my top
priority.
Don’t think you can use that as leverage.
Holden chuckled.
“Why pretend to be tough? If it truly didn’t matter, why would you host such a grand banquet today to impress
Fraser?”
Stung by the truth, Bennett said sarcastically, “Looks like you're well- informed...”
He stopped mid-sentence when he suddenly realized that Holden was dressed exactly like Fraser had been
earlier.
That was when it hit Bennett.
“Were you impersonating Fraser earlier?” he asked.
Before Holden could reply, Bennett continued, “That explains it.
No wonder you strolled into the estate without any trouble.
It seems | indeed overlooked something this time.
“Your greed left a gap forto exploit,” Holden admitted openly, seizing the moment.
“I can’t control everything in Conata, but being a political figure in Eleymond opens doors.
You see, | wasn't just bluffing.
If you agree to my terms, you'll get what you desire—"
