An Understated Dominance By Marina Vittori Chapter 1357-“Hey! Who’s causing a ruckus at the Golden Balcony?” The atmosphere grew tense as a young man stormed in. His eyes were sharp as daggers, casting an intimidating presence upon arrival.

All those who met his fierce gaze instinctively lowered their heads. “Isn’t that Hugo Langford, the fourth young master of the Langford family? What is he doing here?” “Remember, the Langford family is the big boss behind the Golden Balcony. If there’s a ruckus here, they won’t turn a blind eye.” “They’ve not only beaten up Mr. Hans but also messed up the Langford family’s establishment. These two kids are in deep trouble today!” “Hah, youngsters nowadays think a few punches make them kings of Oakvale. What a joke!” The unexpected turn of events ignited a flurry of discussions among the guests in the VIP hall. Now that the Langford family was here, there was no way this situation would end well.

“Mr. Hugo … please, help me!” Hugo’s arrival had Pablo shedding tears of relief. He struggled to his feet. Despite a shaky gait, made his way forward. But halfway through, he lost his balance, causing him to tumble forward.

His momentum threw him right at Hugo’s feet.

“Pablo? What happened to you?” Hugo was taken aback, looking astonished. He had been having a good time in the adjacent venue when he heard about the trouble at the Golden Balcony and rushed over. He had never seen Pablo in such a wretched condition.

With both hands broken, a fractured left leg, and a battered face covered in fresh blood, Pablo looked utterly disheveled.

He was a pawn of the Langford family in the South City. He might not have been a big shot, but he had some power in the area. Ordinary forces wouldn’t have dared to provoke him, much less brutalize him to this extent.
