A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 303

Duke Rowland shuffled the poker card and said, "Don't worry, Boss. Everything's been taken care of."

Julian grinned smugly. "Those clueless punks dared to act up on my turf? They're asking for it. That Robert was useless—he actually let himself get wrecked by trash like that!"

Duke nodded in agreement. "That kid ran fast today. Otherwise, I would've crippled him."

Julian asked, "Did you spread the word?"

"Yeah, make sure everyone knows. If that Jack guy has any guts, he won't keep hiding—he's as good as dead."

Realizing resistance was futile, Julian finally lowered his head like a defeated dog.

"Please, sir. Let's talk this out. We're all civilized men, no need for violence!"

Jack smirked and delivered another slap. "Running a shady bathhouse, exploiting women, and making dirty money—but now you wanna talk to me about civility? Where was your so-called civilization when you were bullying my friends?"

With that, he rained down another flurry of blows before pointing at Julian's tattoo. "Tell me, what's that ink on your chest?"

Julian trembled as he stammered, "Dueling Serpents and the Sacred Stone…"
