    Everyone in the banquet hall was shocked.Who would have thought that Gage, who had been calm and smiling, would attack Edgar? This was no longer a simple drunken fight.


    “You… how could you …” Edgar stammered. He wanted to say more, but the blood gushed from his mouth. Then, his body swayed, and he slumpedto the floor.


    “Edgar, don’t worry. The de missed your heart by just an inch. It won’t take your life for now. Just lie still and don’t make any trouble,” Gage said calmly.


    He took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood off his fingers. His demeanor was strangely calm, as if his actions didn’t matter.


    Christopher was furious. “Bastard! How could you? Edgar tried to reason with you, and you dare attack him? You’re out of your mind! Men, seize this traitor!”


    “Yes, sir.” At hismand, a group of armed soldiers stormed in.Unfazed, Gage threw the handkerchief onto the floor.

    “Gage! One wrong move, and you’ll regret it forever. Do you have a death wish? You’re causing a ruckus at the Murray residence!”


    “As long as there is room for negotiation, you should stop. Turn in your weapons, or face the consequences!”


    “Fool! You’re nothing but a fool!”
