Asher was about to say something more, but Thomas didn't give him the time of day. With a swift turn, he and his team moved to apprehend the Grimshaws. Asher's brow twitched uncontrollably, feeling as if his dignity was being trampled into the dirt.

"Vivienne, have you considered the consequences of your actions?" Asher gritted his teeth as he glared at Vivienne.

Vivienne, hands in her pockets, exuded an aura of defiance. "Consequences? Never cared for them."

Asher laughed in disbelief, repeating, "Fine, fine, fine! If you choose to dismiss the Grimshaws, then don't blame me for what comes next!"

Raising his voice, Asher commanded, "All Grimshaws, listen up! Attack with full force. Treat all outsiders on our turf as fair game, dead or alive!"

The Grimshaws, always proud and disdainful, whether servants or masters, looked down on everyone else.

Suddenly invaded by Vivienne and Percival, and seeing that their captors were heavily armed-obviously government forces-they had hesitated to fight back. But with Asher's command, they threw caution to the wind and charged at Vivienne's team.

In an instant, chaos erupted.

Vivienne just smiled.

Turning to Percival, her smile was irrepressible. "Mr. Wolf, the world is full of fools gifting us their heads on a platter!"

Percival grinned back, "Free heads, why not take them?"

Then, looking at Leopold and Thomas, he said indifferently, "Leopold, Thomas, if even one Grimshaw escapes, you'll be mining coal on Fariana Isle!"

Leopold, energized as if injected with adrenaline, declared, "Don't worry, Percival. Mining coal won't be my fate!"
