Seeing this, Grayson stumbled backward in terror, his face completely drained of color.
The entire crowd screamed in horror, panic spreading like wildfire.
The previously light atmosphere instantly turned deadly serious because of this "gift."
Marcus smiled at Grayson: "So, how do you like the present I brought you?"
Realizing Marcus wasn't here to give gifts but to settle scores, Grayson completely lost his shit.
After the initial shock, he frantically tried to smooth things over: "Mr. Kane, this has nothing to do with me!"
Then he suddenly whirled around and pointed straight at me: "It's HER! That fucking bitch did this!"
"She's my ex-wife—always throwing around her weight as Mrs. Montgomery, sticking her nose in my business."
"She definitely ordered Tommy to trash your club."
"I had no clue!"
When crisis hit, Grayson's first instinct was to throw me under the bus.
The elite crowd quickly jumped on the bandwagon:
"That's right, Mr. Kane! This woman's been throwing her Mrs. Montgomery title around like she owns the world!"
"She's been pulling power trips for years, causing trouble everywhere."
"This has to be her doing—if you want revenge, go after this bitch!"
Montgomery Corp was the state's biggest corporation with tons of subsidiaries and business partners.
Most of the elite families here had deals with Montgomery Corp.
Everyone was terrified that Marcus would destroy Montgomery Corp in his rage and hurt their bottom line, so they didn't hesitate to throw me—a complete outsider—to the wolves.
With everyone pointing fingers at me, Marcus's expression grew darker and darker.
Grayson could obviously feel Marcus's fury building.
So he grabbed me without hesitation, snarling: "You fucking bitch, get down and apologize to Mr. Kane right now!"
The crowd immediately chimed in:
"Exactly! This woman has no idea how powerful he is—she actually dared cross Mr. Kane!"
"Trash like her needs to be taught a lesson!"
"Apologize now, or we'll make sure you regret it!"
Lindsay shrieked: "Vivian, get on your knees and beg Mr. Kane for forgiveness!"
I used to admire Grayson's backbone and self-respect.
That's why I fell for him and secretly supported him all those years.
But now that I'd built him up, his backbone had disappeared.
Watching him throw me to the wolves to save his own ass, I shook my head in disappointment:
"I'd apologize, but he wouldn't dare accept it."
My words sent shockwaves through the room.
"Are you fucking insane? You're still disrespecting Mr. Kane to his face?!"
"He wouldn't dare accept your apology? Who the hell do you think you are?"
"He's the Grim Reaper of Manhattan's elite—are you trying to get us all killed?"
"Grayson, shut her up!"
Grayson was shaking with rage, raising his hand to slap me: "You fucking bitch! Are you trying to destroy the Montgomery family?!"
But Marcus suddenly grabbed Grayson's wrist and kicked him so hard he went flying across the floor.
"I've been putting up with your shit for way too long!"
"Scum like you doesn't deserve to be in this position!"
"And you think you can just hit people in front of me? You must have a death wish!"
Marcus punctuated each word with another vicious kick.
Within seconds, he had Grayson coughing up blood on the floor.
Grayson was too beaten and bloody to even beg for mercy—just making pitiful whimpering sounds.
Seeing Marcus explode with such rage, the previously righteous crowd immediately shut their mouths.
They were all terrified of becoming collateral damage, barely daring to breathe.
Lindsay and the Montgomery family were frozen in terror, watching the scene with complete horror.
In the deathly silence, I spoke calmly: "Don't spill blood in here."
I paused, glancing at my son's urn: "My son doesn't like seeing violence."
The entire crowd screamed in horror, panic spreading like wildfire.
