Chapter 440 Downfall of the Traditional Martial Arts Association

+15 BONUS

After Caspian finished speaking, he picked up the landline on Willow’s desk.

“Yes, is this the receptionist? Tell everyone in the company that Ms. Stewart will be busy for the next

two hours. No one is allowed to come to her office. Anyone who does will be fired on the spot!”

After ending the call, Caspian smirked at Willow and said, “You have nothing to worry about now.”

“Hubby, you’re… so annoying..

Willow didn’t expect Caspian to do what he just did.

She felt so embarrassed.

“Wait a minute. Why did you say I’ll be busy for two hours?” Willow asked puzzledly.

Clearing his throat, Caspian replied, “Isn’t two hours the average amount of time? Anyway, let’s get

started. We haven’t done it in the office before…”

He scooped Willow into his arms, and soon, their passionate embrace heated up the office.

“You were such a brute just now, hubby. Look! You ripped my clothes. I’d be mortified if someone saw

this,” Willow shyly grumbled as she adjusted her outfit.

Caspian had been in too much of a rush earlier.

Willow never thought she’d be having sex in the office either, though she had to admit it felt different

from doing it at home–it was quite thrilling.

“Why don’t we try something new next time?” Caspian suggested with a chuckle from his seat on the

couch.

Willow’s breath hitched. What did he mean by that? Were there other ways to do it?

Ace made it back to the TMAA’s headquarters. The moment he arrived, he announced that he would

be going into seclusion for a while and wouldn’t be seeing anyone.

At the same time, the news of the TMAA’s crushing defeat had spread all over Dhord City.

All the remaining members of the TMAA were living in fear.

Lately, Morrison Group went into a frenzy and bought over the TMAA’s businesses at absurdly low

prices.

+15 BONUS

When the TMAA refused, Morrison Group seized the businesses by force instead.

Even after returning to the TMAA, Ace didn’t show himself in public, and barely any of the high–ranking

members of the TMAA remained.

The TMAA was as good as dead since the ones still around were headless chickens.

All who bore a grudge against the TMAA used this chance to seek vengeance.

In the dungeon of the TMAA, Ace’s expression hardened as he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

His face was pale, and his body was incredibly frail.

“Caspian!” Ace snarled through gritted teeth.

The TMAA was going through its worst crisis.

Ace knew full well what had been going on the past few days, but he was so preoccupied with his own

condition that he didn’t have the strength to care about anything else.

Nevertheless, seeing the way the TMAA was on the verge of crumbling apart gave Ace the urge to tear

Caspian into pieces.

Just then, the low thud of footsteps rang out.

Startled, Ace turned around and growled, “Who goes there?”

A man wearing a cloak and a veil emerged.

Ace tensed up the moment he saw that man.

Despite being a supreme grandmaster and the chairman of the TMAA, Ace was just a pawn.

All along, he had been working for a mysterious person with the last name Lange. He didn’t even know

the person’s full name and merely addressed him as Mr. Lange.

It was this enigmatic Mr. Lange who helped Ace establish the TMAA. He wanted Ace to expand the

TMAA’s influence to gain full control over Diatoran’s martial arts world.

But Ace failed to accomplish that, and now, the TMAA was at risk of being eliminated for good. “Did Mr.

Lange send you here to kill me?” Ace asked through gritted teeth.

He knew what kind of man Mr. Lange was. Besides, he was no longer of any use to the latter. Thus,

there was no reason to keep him around.

“I’m sure you understand what Mr. Lange is like-”

The veiled man was halfway through his sentence when Ace got on his feet and roared, “Well, get on

with it, but I won’t be giving in without a fight!”

+15 BONUS

His reaction made the veiled man chuckle in a way that sent chills down a person’s spine.

“Don’t worry. Mr. Lange did consider killing you, but since you’ve tried your best, he’s willing to give you

a chance to make

up

for

your failures.”

“Oh? Is that so?” Ace said doubtfully. He didn’t believe Mr. Lange would be so benevolent.

“There’s nothing I can tell you. You’ll need to return with me.”

“What? Where am I going with you? Do you want me to abandon the TMAA?” Ace exclaimed in shock.

“And why not? Do you think there’s any reason for the chairman of the TMAA to stick around any

longer?” the veiled man asked as he eyed Ace.

Ace kept quiet. The veiled man was right. The TMAA was nothing but an empty shell now. They were

no longer the mighty force they were before.

Nevertheless, Ace had a hard time giving up just like that. He spent decades building the association

up. It pained him to leave so abruptly.

“You don’t have a choice in the matter. This is Mr. Lange’s decision,” the veiled man declared coolly.

Ace hesitated, but in the end, he clenched his jaw and said, “Alright! I’ll leave with you!”

He was out of options. He was doomed if he stuck around here.

“Guess you’re not a complete fool,” the veiled man remarked with a cackle.

The two men left the dungeon, and moments later, a fire started. Everything was burned to a crisp.

The next day, a shocking piece of news spread like wildfire. Ace, the chairman of the TMAA, had died

in a fire.

In an instant, all of the TMAA’s enemies descended upon the TMAA, causing its members to flee.

The once mighty TMAA was gone in a flash.

Many were unaware that the fall of the TMAA was related to Southlake City. But many factions and

forces, including those from Diatoran’s martial arts world, were starting to pay attention to the

seemingly unremarkable city.

“What? The TMAA has fallen apart?”

+15 BONUS

Caspian was taken aback by the news. Though the TMAA was indeed caught in a fairly dire situation, it

shouldn’t have crumbled apart so quickly.

“Is this information accurate?” Caspian asked with a frown.

“Definitely, Caspian. The TMAA has indeed been overthrown! According to the news, Ace locked

himself up in the dungeon upon his return, and he died in a fire there,” Sylvia reported. “Oh? Is that

so?” Caspian remarked as he rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

Ace’s death was just a rumor. Though everyone said he had died in a fire, no one saw his body.

However, it was indeed a fact that the TMAA was no longer in existence.

Sylvia asked quietly, “Caspian, should I get someone to investigate…”

“No need. It doesn’t matter whether Ace’s dead or alive,” Caspian said. Ace was insignificant to him.

It was only a shame that someone else must have gotten their hands on the TMAA’s sizeable holdings

and assets.

“Hubby, it’s time for us to head off!” Willow called out once she appeared.

“I’m coming,” Caspian replied.

Caspia and Willow were heading to Easton.

They wanted to invite Rebecca to become their brand ambassador as well as get the consumer data

they needed from Easton Research Center.

In order to face off against the aggressive Morrison Group, they needed to be fully prepared.

“What? Caspian and Willow have gone to Easton together?”

The moment Jyn heard the news, she got an unsettling feeling.
