---- Chapter 1980 The subordinate repeated, "Mr. Burke is dead! He was killed by Andrew. The Hopkins family just
sent word." After he heard the report, Maurice was finally certain his ears were not playing tricks on him.
Nonetheless, while his hearing was fine, his heart gave a painful jolt, and his fists clenched so tightly that his
knuckles cracked. "That bastard really dared to attack the Driscoll family!
| didn't think he'd actually have the guts to do it!" Maurice growled through clenched teeth, his voice rising into a
furious roar. Walter's death was, at best, a mild loss to him. The man had been a loyal servant for decades, yes,
but to someone like Maurice, who was long accustomed to power plays and betrayal, loyal dogs were easy to
replace. What truly stung was not the man's life, but the insult to the family's reputation.
Walter had been the Driscoll family's chief steward and the leader of the Shadow Division. For him to be hunted
down and killed by Andrew was undoubtedly a hard slap to the Driscoll family's face. "Exterminate!" Maurice
snarled. "An eye for an eye. Hit him the ---- way he hit us!" After the initial wave of rage passed, his eyes turned
ice-cold. " Tonight, the entire Shadow Division will storm The Sovereign Residences and wipe Serenity Villa off the

voices in unison. "Yes, sir!" Maurice continued, "Walter's dead, but | assthe Hopkins family is fine. What
about Diego and Timothy? Are they on their way to Blumedale to follow orders?" The two men exchanged a
heavy look, both seeing the discomfort in the other's eyes. One of them spoke reluctantly. "Sir, Mr. Hopkins
Senior says the Hopkins family suffered heavy losses.
It might take at least ten days before they can cto aid the Driscoll family." Maurice froze for a second, then

are clearly stalling. But fine. Once Andrew's dealt with, I'll make sure the Hopkinses learn what fear really
means." At this moment, Scarlett dragged her body into the room.
"Dad!" Maurice looked up and could not help but frown, "You're this ---- badly injured, yet you're not resting? Why
are you running around? Scarlett gritted her teeth, "The injuries on my body won't heal overnight. But no matter
what, | won't die from them! | cto tell you that something else has happened!" Maurice's eyelid twitched as
he hurriedly asked, "Something happened? What happened?" Walter's death had put him on high alert, and now
