Chapter 172 He Had Chosen Right

Elton staggered backward, rattled by the unexpected turn of events. His footing slipped, and he failed to catch Daron, who crashed to the ground with a heavy thud.

Speechless, Daron could only stare in disbelief.

“Sam, are those really the Angels of Death?” At home, Jessi’s entire body trembled as her eyes remained fixed. on the screen. Maren stood at the center of the chaos like a monarch commanding her court–confident, composed, unrecognizable from the woman they once knew.

Sam’s voice dropped to a whisper, hollow with shock. “How did things end up like

this?”

“The Onyx is hers. Even the Angels of Death answers to her,” Nadia whispered, her voice barely audible.

Confusion gripped all three of them, pulling them into a haze of disbelief and self–doubt.

But one among them didn’t share that same confusion.

That was Wilbur.

“Maren leads the Angels of Death. That changes everything that was ever said about her—it was all false. She’s

innocent.”

Wilbur finally grasped what truly mattered.

He had once questioned her, bought into the whispers and gossip. But now, standing face–to–face with the undeniable reality, he saw those rumors for what they were–nothing but dirt thrown by the fearful.

Because truly, what kind of woman becomes the ruler of Baimsa’s underworld through seduction alone?

She didn’t need to sell herself. With the Onyx and the Angels of Death at her back, she held the power to crush the city with barely a glance.

“I got it wrong. I need to make this right. Wait for me, Maren!”

mercy.”

When confronted by death, he felt completely powerless, as though every last bit of strength had slipped from his grasp.

“I’m not the type to hand out forgiveness. That’s something only God should handle. What I do is make sure they get the chance to meet Him.”

Maren lifted her gun and pressed the barrel to his forehead. Then she pulled the trigger.

The shot rang out, clean and final. Blood sprayed, and Daron–once feared was nothing more than a memory.

“That’s it! Baimsa’s entire underground belongs to us now!” someone shouted.

“Our boss is incredible!” Westley couldn’t contain himself, bouncing on his feet with pure adrenaline.

What had begun as a carefully laid ambush ended with Maren flipping the script entirely and dismantling her enemies with precision.

Victory had never looked so effortless.

“Hold the cheers. The Onyx is still battling the Slayers. Westley, take your team and back them up.” Maren remained focused.

Without needing another word, Westley gave a sharp nod and sprinted off to mobilize his squad.

Ricky sent a few of his own men to back Westley, making sure they had the strength they needed to crush the Slayers without leaving a trace behind.

“Simon, Ricky, you two clean up the battlefield and take control of the two gangs territories,” Maren said coldly before striding off.

“Understood!” Simon and Ricky replied in unison.

Ricky kept his composure, but Simon couldn’t hide the excitement bubbling beneath his skin.

He had chosen to follow Maren because he had seen something in her. He had believed she could lead the Onyx to a higher place.

Only over a month had passed, yet they had conquered Baimsa’s underworld.
