Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1995-Denis and Jake both wore somber expressións, their brows furrowed with unease. They had no true grasp of Emmanuel’s strength or the intricate web of strategies supporting him. Their decision to follow was built entirely on trust, leaving them feeling uncertain and vulnerable.
“Ha! Everyone!” Xander’s voice rang out, full of mockery as he addressed the crowd. “Due to the slander against Ms. Yuna and the Tanner family, we, as the hosts, must step in to defend her honor and take care of these scoundrels. I urge you all to disperse quickly, unless you wish to become collateral damage–then I can’t be held responsible for what happens.” As Xander finished speaking, the onlookers scattered, not wanting to get caught in the impending chaos. Eldoria’s grand ballroom swiftly cleared, leaving an open space where more than a dozen fighters now encircled Emmanuel and Sage like wolves closing in on their prey.
With a smirk twisting his lips, Gregory stepped forward. “Emmanuel, I’ll admit, you’re strong. But walking in here today means you’ve sealed your own fate.
One–on–One or a Gang Up?
There’s no way out for you now.” His voice dripped with venom, his eyes flashing with lingering bitterness from their last encounter. Emmanuel had crippled him during that fight, leaving him with an injury that made every step painful, but that hardly mattered anymore. Back at the Quill Residence, Gregory had rallied a band of masters and set an elaborate trap, confident that Emmanuel wouldn’t slip through his fingers again. This time, he’d make sure there was no escape.
“You lost to me before, yet you still dare to talk big?” Emmanuel’s calm words sliced through Gregory’s bravado, causing his face to flush with humiliation.
Whispers rippled through the crowd as those present now remembered Gregory’s loss in Yeringham–a defeat many hadn’t been aware of until now.
