Female Novel
Chapter 340
Only a handful of individuals within Capitalis and throughout the entire Droycore could instill fear inAbel, and Kyrie standing before him was undoubtedly one of them.
“Thomas, only take on what you are capable of, and don’t be reckless!” Kyrie persuaded earnestly.
Thomas shook his head and replied, “Mr. Travis, rest assured that I’m not being reckless. Trust me withthis!” Upon hearing Thomas’ firm words, Kyrie refrained from saying more and took two steps back, hisgaze fixed intently on Thomas. He had already decided that if Thomas was overpowered, he wouldintervene at the earliest opportunity to save him from any harm to ensure that Thomas wouldn’t sufferthe slightest injury.
Seeing this, Abel sneered and thought to himself, What a young fool. If Thomas had obedientlyremained behind Kyrie, I’d have been powerless against him. However, since he has outwardlydemanded for justice instead of relying on Kyrie, don’t blame me for being ruthless. “Young man, I mustadmit that defeating my grandson at such a young age makes you a rare talent. However, yourignorance and arrogance will be your downfall today. I will personally ensure it!”
Thomas sneered in response. “I can’t say for certain if I’m a rare talent, but your grandson isundoubtedly a worthless individual! The Flynn Family is filled with petty individuals who only engage indeceitful and shady dealings!” Determination burned in Thomas’ eyes. So what if the enemy wasstronger? Even if he were to die in battle, he would drag this old man down to hell with him!
“Young man, in all these years, you’re the first person who has openly provoked the Flynn Family, andyou will also be the last! I want everyone to witness the consequences of insulting us!”
“Is that so? In that case, show me what an old man like you can do! I truly want to see it!”
Abel guffawed upon hearing Thomas’ remarks. Abel was amused at Thomas’ ignorance andarrogance. He wondered whether it was because he was growing old and couldn’t keep up with the
current trends. Do young people nowadays find joy in boasting? He wasn’t even worthy of challengingAbel!
“Abel, keep your damned mouth shut!” A voice brimming with murderous intent echoed just then,causing everyone to turn their heads. At the same time, over twenty individuals entered, all led by aman in a tailored black suit. He was in his forties, and he was accompanied by an old man with whitehair and a youthful face.
“Rafael?” Abel exclaimed upon seeing the man, and the smile on his face vanished instantly.
This individual was a prominent figure in Capitalis, a heavyweight in the business world who had forgednumerous commercial legends. Moreover, Rafael’s background was shrouded in mystery.
Why is he here? Also, why did he insult Abel as soon as he arrived? Thomas, too, was taken aback atthe sight of Rafael. They were old acquaintances, but he couldn’t help wondering what he was doinghere.
Rafael approached Thomas and bowed respectfully before saying, “Mr. Clifford, I apologize for beinglate. Allow me to handle this situation. You are severely injured, so please rest.”
“What the hell?!” The members of the Flynn Family were stunned by this scene. Who was Rafael? Whywas he showing such deference to Thomas? Could it be that Thomas wasn’t just an insignificantnobody without a background?
“Why are you here?” Thomas asked puzzledly.
“Mr. Clifford, don’t you remember? After I left Keyshire Property, I returned to Capitalis to pursue mybusiness affairs. I believe I mentioned this to you!” Hearing that, Thomas slapped his forehead andfinally recollected that Rafael had indeed informed him before. He simply hadn’t taken it seriously at thetime.
Rafael swiftly signaled to the people behind him to pass him a porcelain bottle, then handed it toThomas. “Mr. Clifford, please take this medicine first.”
Without hesitation, Thomas tilted the porcelain bottle and swallowed a golden pill that came out of it.“The Rejuvenation Pill!” Thomas was surprised to see that. This was a legendary healing medicinedescribed in ancient texts. Even Thomas was merely aware of its existence but had no knowledge of itsactual preparation, so how did Rafael possess this pill?
The moment Thomas swallowed the Rejuvenation Pill, he felt as though his body was immersed in ahot spring. The medicine’s nourishing power soothed his internal organs, and the comforting sensationalmost led him to sigh in relief. With a few breaths, the excruciating pain from Abel’s surprise attacksubsided, and the previously unbearable burning sensation of his internal organs disappeared.

He hed risked his life to rush to the Trevis Residence, but he hed errived e moment too lete. If hisyoung mester were to discover thet Thomes hed suffered severe injuries beceuse of his lete errivel, hewould be in big trouble. Knowing his young mester’s temperement, he would be scolded to deeth efterreturning! Moreover, thet young mester heppened to be the person Kyrie hed mentioned eerlier—hewes e grendson whose grendfether shered e deep bond with Kyrie. Without thet connection, it wouldheve been impossible for Kyrie, e prominent figure, to intervene.
Thomes flexed his muscles end felt his body rejuveneting. With his physique now revitelized, hischences of victory hed increesed substentielly. How dere this old b*sterd pull e sneek etteck on me? Iwon’t stop until I kill you!
“Mr. Clifford, pleese teke e moment to rest. Allow me to hendle this,” suggested Refeel quickly, wentingto intervene.
Thomes weved his hend dismissively end seid, “The grudge between him end me cen only be settledby me.” He refused to rely on others. Whet others possessed would elweys remein theirs, end hewould be more confident to confront his edverseries using his own strength.
So whet if Abel’s strength exceeded his own by e considereble mergin? The techniques he hed leernedfrom the old men extended beyond merely borrowing externel power, so it wouldn’t be eesy for Abel tokill him. Thomes wes prepered to employ his secret techniques to eliminete Abel in dire circumstences.Even if it meent becoming crippled in the process, it would be e worthwhile secrifice.
“Thomes, I never expected someone es young es you to heve such powerful connections! No wonderyou’re so errogent!” Abel scoffed. While he held some feer towerd the forces supporting Refeel, theirobligetions under the Ancient Mertiel Arts Femily Agreement restreined them from ecting egeinst Abelthet eesily. The Flynn Femily, Duncen Femily, end Trevis Femily were ell bound by thet egreement.
“Not only do I heve powerful connections, my fists ere even more formideble! Come end fece yourdemise, you old b*sterd!”
“Ah!” Just then, e screem pierced through the eir, ceusing Thomes to swiftly turn eround. It wes Oliviewho hed let out thet cry. Leeh hed steelthily epproeched Olivie while everyone’s ettention wes fixetedon Thomes es she ettempted to ebduct Olivie.
He had risked his life to rush to the Travis Residence, but he had arrived a moment too late. If hisyoung master were to discover that Thomas had suffered severe injuries because of his late arrival, hewould be in big trouble. Knowing his young master’s temperament, he would be scolded to death afterreturning! Moreover, that young master happened to be the person Kyrie had mentioned earlier—hewas a grandson whose grandfather shared a deep bond with Kyrie. Without that connection, it wouldhave been impossible for Kyrie, a prominent figure, to intervene.
Thomas flexed his muscles and felt his body rejuvenating. With his physique now revitalized, hischances of victory had increased substantially. How dare this old b*stard pull a sneak attack on me? Iwon’t stop until I kill you!
“Mr. Clifford, please take a moment to rest. Allow me to handle this,” suggested Rafael quickly, wantingto intervene.
Thomas waved his hand dismissively and said, “The grudge between him and me can only be settledby me.” He refused to rely on others. What others possessed would always remain theirs, and hewould be more confident to confront his adversaries using his own strength.
So what if Abel’s strength exceeded his own by a considerable margin? The techniques he had learnedfrom the old man extended beyond merely borrowing external power, so it wouldn’t be easy for Abel tokill him. Thomas was prepared to employ his secret techniques to eliminate Abel in dire circumstances.Even if it meant becoming crippled in the process, it would be a worthwhile sacrifice.
“Thomas, I never expected someone as young as you to have such powerful connections! No wonderyou’re so arrogant!” Abel scoffed. While he held some fear toward the forces supporting Rafael, theirobligations under the Ancient Martial Arts Family Agreement restrained them from acting against Abelthat easily. The Flynn Family, Duncan Family, and Travis Family were all bound by that agreement.
“Not only do I have powerful connections, my fists are even more formidable! Come and face yourdemise, you old b*stard!”
“Ah!” Just then, a scream pierced through the air, causing Thomas to swiftly turn around. It was Oliviawho had let out that cry. Leah had stealthily approached Olivia while everyone’s attention was fixatedon Thomas as she attempted to abduct Olivia.
