Sylvester’s face was full of disbelief. Only he knew how powerful these five hitmen he had meticulously trained were.

Sylvester had put in great efforts to train these hitmen. Not only had he hired top-notch powerhouses as coaches for them, but he had also once sent them to international battlefields to experience life-and-death battles.

There had been more than 30 hitmen when he first started training them. But in the end, only five had returned from the battlefield, and they had all experienced countless brutal killings and fights before finally making it back alive.

It could be said that these five people could even rival the top powerhouses of the eight great families of DC.

These hitmen were Sylvester’s trump cards, whom he wouldn’t let appear in front of others unless necessary.

He had summoned his hitmen squad and exposed them in advance to avenge his son.

But in just two seconds, one of them had already died!

This made Sylvester’s heart so painful that it started bleeding.

But the death of one hitman was just the beginning!

Jordan held the dagger he had snatched from the hitman and darted in and out among the remaining four killers like a phantom, swinging his knife every now and then.

Jordan’s movements were extremely skilled. Although he looked extremely relaxed, his movements were as fast as lightning, and none of the killers he faced could escape his terrifying lethal hand.

“Pfft!”

“Pfft!”

“Pfft!”

“Pfft!”

Soon, four successive sounds of throats being slashed filled the air. Just like the first hitman, the rest had their throats slit, fell to the floor, and convulsed violently.

The entire battle, no, massacre, lasted less than ten seconds in total.

After all five hitmen fell to the floor, the first hitman whose throat had been slit was not completely dead yet.

The scene greatly stunned everyone present!

Not only was Sylvester dumbfounded, but everyone else at the scene was also shocked, their minds blank for a moment.

With all five killers having their neck arteries cut, blood continued to gush out from their necks, and the intense odor of blood filled the entire banquet hall.

“Blegh!”

Finally, someone couldn’t stand the strong, revolting odor of blood and the bloody scene in front of them and threw up.

More people reacted to what was going on, and they all turned pale before screaming and running wildly toward the hotel entrance.

It was too… terrifying!

Although there was already Jessey’s death prior to this, he had died from having his throat crushed, which was nowhere near as gory as the death of the hitmen. The guests were terrified to see someone die, but it was still within an acceptable range.

But these five killers had actually died so horribly. Their throats were slit open, there was blood all over the floor, and their bodies were still convulsing, forming a terrifying image!

Soon, almost all the guests of the wedding had run out, and the only ones remaining on the scene were the Dempseys and the Stones.

Jordan glanced at Sylvester, threw the blood-stained dagger in his hand directly to Sylvester’s feet, and then returned to stand behind Lucas. He looked extremely calm, as if the people on the floor were not killed by him.

Clang!

The sound of the dagger landing at his feet made Sylvester jump up in shock and take two steps back in panic.

He had long since stopped being commanding. Now, his face was pale, and his entire body was trembling.

No one dared to say anything for a while.

Bang!

Lucas put the glass in his hand on the table, breaking the dead silence.

“Mr. Dempsey, there’s actually no feud between me and the Dempseys. You should know better than anyone how things developed to this point.

“I also hope that the Dempseys won’t be used as a pawn. Think about it. If they could deal with me easily, would they still need to resort to such lowly methods?” Lucas calmly said to Phil, the head of the Dempseys.

Phil gritted his teeth, looking conflicted.

Lucas stopped paying attention to him and turned back to face Geoffrey with a faint smile. “Mr. Stone, I believe you’re a smart person, and you can probably guess the truth behind this wedding.

“For Maddy’s sake, I can refrain from harming the Stones. But I also hope that you can make the right choice.

“However, I guess Maddy won’t even appear at today’s wedding, right, Mr. Dempsey?”

When he said the last few words, he narrowed his eyes at Phil.

Geoffrey’s eyebrows furrowed into a frown. He glanced at the wedding venue, and sure enough, he didn’t see his granddaughter Maddy.

“What’s going on here? Where is my granddaughter?” Geoffrey questioned Phil furiously.

He had an ominous premonition. Indeed, there was really something wrong with this hastily arranged wedding!

The Stones had probably been made use of!

Phil looked extremely displeased.

He knew very well that the Smiths had arranged everything today. But now that the Dempseys had done what they had to do, the Smiths never showed up!

He was extremely anxious. However, the most important thing now was not to make a scene but to try to stabilize the situation until the Smiths showed up.

Phil gritted his teeth and said, “Mr. Stone, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter! I can also guarantee that your granddaughter is safe and sound!

“The most important thing now is to deal with these two kids in front of you! Once we do, everything will be settled!”

At this moment, even though he already knew that Lucas and Jordan’s identities were not simple and that they were not easy to deal with, the Dempseys were subordinate to the Smiths in the first place. Since they took orders from the Smiths, he couldn’t betray them at this juncture and surrender to two young men with unknown identities.

“Where is my granddaughter?!” Geoffrey hollered, not wanting to listen to Phil’s nonsense at all.

“Mr. Smith, like I’ve said, your granddaughter is now safe, and nothing is wrong! This isn’t the time for us to have internal strife. As long as we deal with these two people, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation!” Phil explained.

Then he turned to look at Lucas and said angrily, “Punk, you don’t need to sow discord between our families! Maddy is my granddaughter-in-law. I won’t do anything to harm her!”

He sneered. “Since you already know that today’s wedding is meant to lure you here, you should already be ready to die here!

“I may as well tell you directly that we have arranged many people in and outside the hotel. Even if you’re powerful, you’ll never be able to escape!

“Both of you must die here!”

A look of menace appeared on Phil’s face.
