The Mafia Heiress's Comeback: She's More Than You Think novel Chapter 82

Chapter 82 What Did

Maren Have

Maren’s arrogance was clear.

Ashton’s anger boiled over in an instant when Maren stood her ground.

“You’re crossing a line, Maren!” Ashton threatened, his hand raised in anger.

“Try it, and you might not be walking out of here on your own,” Maren threatened, her tone deadly.

Ashton’s hand stalled in the air. He was painfully aware that Maren was no longer the vulnerable girl she once

was.

Maren had managed to defeat Daniel. Who knew how long she’d been hiding her strength?

Moreover, she now had underworld connections. It was a bad time to challenge her.

Biting back his anger, Ashton conceded.

“Tomorrow, I’ll be at the office. Ensure the contract is prepared,” Maren said, making it clear she had no reason

to stay. She needed to return to the academy for her diploma.

Though seething, Ashton held his tongue.

“I get it.” Reluctantly, he accepted the situation, knowing resistance would only provoke Maren further.

As Maren walked away, seemingly unbothered, Ashton was struck by a sudden regret,

They had underestimated and devalued Maren for too long.

It was no surprise that the situation had deteriorated beyond repair.

In a fit of anger, Ashton hurled a cup against the wall, the sound of breaking glass echoing his inner turmoil.

Maren’s triumph over Daniel became an instant sensation.

ゆ

The city of Baimsa, always at the cent

of attention, buzzed with online debates and discussions about Maren’s

newfound fame.

“Wait, what? Maren defeated the dean of the Royal Military Academy?”

“That’s the top fighter in Baimsa. Is this even the same Maren we used to know?”

“The so–called failure? And she’s defeated the dean? It all seems too good to be true.”

“Is there any chance the video has been edited? It looks incredibly real though.”

Chapter 82 What Did Maren Have

“I used to trash–talk her. Think she’s coming for payback?”

“Man, I’ve said a lot of crap about her too. Surely, she wouldn’t bother to hunt us down, would she?”

Unbeknownst to Maren, she had ignited a massive online frenzy. Since the duel concluded, her name.

dominated the internet in Baimsa.

While some questioned if the video was real, others were scared of what she might do in return. The shock

was universal.

At that moment, in the VIP suite of Elysian Heights Hospital in Baimsa, a video showcasing Maren’s victory over

Daniel was playing repeatedly on the television.

Rows of armed guards lined the hallway and flanked both sides of the hospital bed.

Bang!

Tucker, reclining in bed, hurled his meal and utensils to the floor in frustration.

“It’s her! It has to be her!”

“Dad, take it easy. The doctor said you need rest,” said the short–haired young man sitting by the bed, trying to

calm Tucker down.

However, Tucker’s attention remained fixed on the TV, his eyes ablaze with anger as he watched Maren.

In Baimsa, Tucker was renowned as the only rival to the Royal Military Academy’s dean in terms of fighting

prowess. There was supposed to be no one else.

Out of nowhere, a mysterious woman appeared in Baimsa. First, she took down Marcus. Then came Tyler and

Scorpion.

Tucker had previously fought Scorpion and understood the caliber of these international–level fighters. His local

gang couldn’t match that kind of threat.

Having witnessed Maren on television effortlessly defeating Daniel, Tucker was alarmed.

During his own encounter with Scorpion, Tucker had managed to withstand three moves.

Daniel, however, had fallen at Maren’s first strike, indicating she might be even stronger than Scorpion.

Tucker was now convinced that Maren was the mysterious female racer stirring up the city.

“Gather our top fighters, Brooks. Arm them with our most advanced weaponry. I want the Morgan family

erased from existence. Do it for your brother!”

Brooks Freeman initially couldn’t grasp his father’s sudden rage. Hearing Tucker’s directive, though, he

hesitated, then understood the motive.

Since the last explosion on the city’s outskirts, Tucker had been hospitalized with severe injuries.

His animosity towards Maren had deepened, fueled by unresolved anger over Tyler’s death.

Still, Brooks had his doubts. “Dad, if Maren Morgan really is that racer, just trying to overpower her might not

work.”

Chapter 82 What Did Maren Have

Brooks, unlike his impulsive brother Ricky, was regarded by Tucker as a strong leadership prospect, more competent than Tyler and already seen as the future head of the Angels of Death.

Although close to Tyler, Brooks now needed to adopt a leader’s mindset.

With a sharp snort, Tucker brushed the concern aside. “Being strong doesn’t make her untouchable. She’s still human, and humans can be killed. We’ll crush her with numbers–no one survives that kind of firepower.”

Back then, Tucker respected Scorpion, but only because Scorpion had the weight of the Sovereign Underworld behind him.

But what did Maren have? All she had was a rich family.

And money? That didn’t mean much. In this world, power was what truly counted.
