| Chapter 1515 They never imagined Emmanuel would take them on after the bodyguards announced their identity. Once they snapped out of it, they lunged forward again. But in the blink of an eye, Emmanuel had knocked all the bodyguards down.
The waiter standing nearby watched in disbelief and gasped silently. It hit him that Emmanuel must be a skilled fighter, which explained his audacity in taking on the Ashford family.
But the waiter also knew that while showing off might feel good, crossing the Silverbane family was a risky move.
Upon seeing that, Tessa retreated and glared at them. She seethed, "You... How dare you bully me? You're done for! Get on your knees now, or you'll regret it!" Emmanuel paid no attention to her and turned to Mackenzie. He asked tenderly, "Darling, I didn't accidentally hurt you, did I?” She smiled and replied, "Nope. But your martial arts skills are amazing." "You... you're drivingcrazy!" Tessa seethed, watching the couple who had just knocked her bodyguard down, still displaying affection right in front of her.
On the contrary, the waiter was speechless.

Even though the Ashford family wasn't part of Zovince's Big Four, they were still a major player in the city's wealth hierarchy. When they arrived in Onza, they brought their influence with them. So, who would be bold enough to challenge them? What went down? "Mr. Silverbane, you've arrived at the perfect moment! Can you believe there are still such ignorant fools in Onza? He dared to attack my people and even had the nerve to bully me... sniff... sniff... You've got to helpset things right!" Tessa wasn't the independent type like Angela and Mackenzie. So, when she spotted Blaze, she instinctively turned on her vulnerable mode. It was a stark contrast to her previous assertiveness.
"Don't worry! We always call the shots here in Nuthana," Blaze declared proudly, lifting his head high before glancing around.
But upon seeing Emmanuel and his wife, Blaze visibly hesitated momentarily before regaining his composure. "I wonder who's bold enough to cause a scene in Onza. Turns out, it's these up-and-comers from Yerringham." Emmanuel smirked in response, while Mackenzie simply ignored Blaze.
"What? Do you think nabbing a spot in the Nuthana Grand Martial Showdown finals makes you superior? You reckon you can strut around like you own the place here in Onza?" Blaze's tone dripped with contempt as he fired off his questions. Emmanuel chuckled lightly. "We're just here for a meal. Is that what you call arrogance? We're not out to pick fights, but anyone who tries to pick one with us might regret it." "Oh, are you implying a challenge with us?" Blaze arched an eyebrow.
Behind him, the Silverbane family fighters were poised for action. They had heard about the Quillen family securing a spot in the showdown.
Meanwhile, Ruben had been nursing a grudge since his defeat to Emmanuel in their last encounter. He wouldn't bother with martial ethics or principles if things turned physical. At that moment, he was eager to act and ensure Emmanuel paid the price. And then, they would have one less formidable opponent to worry about in the Grand Martial Showdown final.
"Why are you itching for a brawl, Blaze?" Emmanuel remained cool. el "Last tat The Paradise, you used your influence to pushdown. Are you hoping for a repeat
performance today? Today won't be any different if you didn't get your way last time. His words stirred up old grievances, and Blaze's eyes flashed with fury.
Mackenzie gently rested her hand on her belly and reminded Blaze, "Mr. Silverbane, you've got important arrangements with the Ashford family today, right? If things turn
violent, aren't you concerned it could derail your plans?" Her words were both a warning and a plea for reason.

inside her during a fight.
Her words struck Blaze right where it hurt.
