Chapter 1619

Emboldened by their numbers, the gang members quickly descended into violence. The masked man remained still amid the chaos, while Kyle fought like a whirlwind, taking down ten opponents in mere moments. Within minutes, the entire gang lay sprawled on the ground. The gang leader knelt and bowed repeatedly, ultimately leading his men away in humiliation. The outcome was clear—SK Group had decisively taken control. It was the first time Gideon had witnessed such impressive combat skills; he couldn't resist capturing a few photos of Kyle in action. As the dust settled, the masked man began to survey the area. Feeling it was safe, he gradually removed his mask. Gideon zoomed in, and as the mask was lifted, he finally saw the man's face. He turned to Abigail, his expression one of shock. The leader of SK Group was none other than Jenson. Abigail's eyes mirrored Gideon's astonishment. Over the years, her relationship with Taylor had become distant, leaving her unaware of the inner workings of SK Group. She had never imagined that Jenson would be the one taking charge of the organization in Helen's absence. Gideon quickly regained his focus, aiming his camera squarely at Jenson. The two brothers of the Newton family—one the owner of Destiny Corporation and the other the head of SK Group—left Gideon intrigued about the roles of their other two siblings. He kept his finger on the shutter, determined not to miss any details. Just as he continued snapping photos, he noticed Kyle take a call and step out of frame. After five intense minutes of photography, Gideon finally stowed his camera, satisfied with his shots. Just as he was about to share his findings with Abigail, he noticed a tall figure looming behind them. Without needing to look up, Gideon recognized Kyle by his distinctive attire. Both he and Abigail knew they were outmatched. Abigail and Kyle exchanged a knowing glance, instantly recognizing each other, but they kept their composure in front of Gideon. With a courteous gesture, Kyle signaled for them to follow. "Mr. Newton would like to see you both downstairs." Both Gideon and Abigail were seasoned in high-stakes situations. They stood up calmly and followed Kyle to meet Jenson. As their eyes locked, the air between them crackled with tension, each side sizing each other up with barely concealed animosity. In the seven years that had passed, Jenson had shed his youthful innocence. His gaze now exuded the matured confidence of a man, and his physique had broadened significantly; even the heavy suit he wore couldn't hide the muscles beneath. Jenson first approached Abigail, casting her a knowing look before turning his attention to Gideon. "Hello, Mr. Rhett. It seems you have quite the grievance with us at SK Group." "In this world, everyone has a right to their grievances," Gideon replied, holding his head high. A smirk crossed Jenson's lips, followed by a cold laugh. "If you're dissatisfied, perhaps you should keep your distance. Following me around like a bothersome fly is rather annoying." "For the sake of society and its people, someone has to take on the unpleasant tasks," Gideon shot back. "I see. So you consider yourself a champion of justice, huh? Then tell me, what crime has SK Group committed?" Jenson asked, locking his gaze on Gideon. His expression was stoic, radiating intimidation. "Isn't taking the law into your own hands a serious offense?" Gideon shot back fiercely. "For the right price, SK Group will do anything—even if it's illegal!" "And what's wrong with that?" Jenson replied coolly. "When the law fails, SK Group steps in. We've resolved countless conflicts. Why is it only you who wants to take us down?" "There's no point in debating morals. If you plan to kill me, just do it. Spare me the theatrics," Gideon scoffed. His expression was one of contempt. It was as if he was ready to face death without flinching.
