“We’ve endured hardships together.”

“That figures. With someone like you as his main man, who wouldn’t he dare confront?”

Marlon joked, “I’ve heard you never resort to killing, Mr. Ward. That’s unfortunate. In this line of business, being too merciful can be costly.”

Caden asked, “So, could I borrow a few of your men for some practice?”

Marlon’s expression darkened. Was Caden suggesting harming his men? Wasn’t that an insult?

“Mr. Ward, you certainly have a sense of humor,” Marlon said, clinking glasses with him.

Caden kept his response vague. Marlon was known for his brutality and wasn’t easy to manipulate. Caden, however, had a strong presence that showed he was no ordinary man.

Eager to impress, Marlon said, “Mr. Ward, I have some advice for you. Stay away from Alicia. She will eventually be with Mr. Hampton. Let her go now to save yourself some trouble.”

Caden lifted an eyebrow, casually asking, “Corey’s woman? Is that so?”

Marlon chose not to disclose more.

“She’s just a woman. Why place such value on her? Miss Moss has everything you desire. Isn’t she a far better option than Alicia?”

An associate nearby, enjoying a drink, laughed.

“Mr. Ward, I saw the news. Your marriage proposal was quite the event.”

Caden gave a sly smirk.

The subordinate, his eyes red from drinking, said without restraint, “I’ve never seen anyone from a wealthy family like you express love so openly.”

“I was curious about the woman who caught your eye, so I looked her up, and wow, she’s a real gem!”

Caden leaned back, his face expressionless, as he observed the drunken subordinate. The man, caught up in his daydream, wore a suggestive grin.

“She’s beautiful and has an amazing figure. Mr. Ward, since you’ve found a new interest, maybe you could introduce her to us?”

At that, Marlon grabbed a bottle and smashed it over the subordinate’s head.

“Watch your language!” Marlon shouted.

“A bit of booze and you lose your manners? Mr. Ward’s lady isn’t for your amusement.”

He gestured sharply with his eyes for the subordinate to leave. The subordinate, visibly upset, remained.

Marlon turned to Caden with an apologetic smile.

“Just some reckless talkers. Don’t mind them.”

Caden’s demeanor was cold, his voice calm.
