“Frankly, I don’t know much either.”Kayson shook his head. “It seems the third heir of the Wolfendens that Mr. Walker mentioned earlier is planning on going against Wolfenden Corp.”“What?”The crowd of people turned pale with fear upon hearing the remark—even Bradley assumed a solemn expression.“That’s troubling. The Wolfendens is a huge household that has reigned over the provincial capital of Skyspring for decades, with countless skilled fighters working for them.“On the other hand, the Wolfendens not only have a huge influence in Skyspring, but it is also one of the top families in the whole of Skyriv,” said Bradley solemnly.The Waltons were not so bad either, but their influence was only limited to Clouspring. Clouspring was not a feeble city, but it was only ranked third amongst the cities of the entire Skyriv province.Bradley ventured from place to place when he was young, and so he had built his small fame in some cities.However, he was well aware of his family
Bradley’s expression was slightly unpleasant. Frankly, he was well aware of the Wolfendens’ terrifying acts. Unless his family were not planning on having a foothold in Skyriv, it would be absolutely unwise for him to offend the Wolfendens.Kayson furrowed his eyebrows. “Can you please lead the way, Mr. Walker?”Jonathan hesitated.Kayson did not wish to make things difficult for Jonathan upon noticing his reaction, so he planned on looking for the room himself.He was certain that the Wolfendens’ third heir would be protected by skilled fighters anyhow, so he could feel for the presence of those people to locate them.“I shall lead the way, Mr. Yarde.”Jonathan was afraid of the Wolfendens but decided he would wager a bet this time!“Mr. Ewell, wait for me here so you won’t be implicated.”“Sure, I won’t go there and add trouble.” Zachary nodded.Bradley and Hogan were about to stand up, but Kayson asked them to stay.“Thank you for your kind intentions, both of you. However
“You’re such a bully!”Liam was fuming because it was not an easy feat for Wolfenden Corp. to receive Apex Investment Partner’s investment.The company had a bright future ahead now.How could he make peace with the fact that Dawson was here to reap what they sowed?Sadie spoke through gritted teeth. “Don’t even think about it! How will we possibly hand over the company that we built with blood and sweat!”‘Trying to acquire Wolfenden Corp. for just $150,000?‘Dawson, you’re just a bully.’“I’m not looking for a discussion. It’s just a notification to both of you.” Dawson said in contempt, “You may choose not to do it, but you must bear the consequences of your decision.”Sadie was so furious that she almost teared up. ‘This man is impossible!’Liam clenched his fists tightly but did not have the courage to offend the Wolfendens in view of their influence.Otherwise, perhaps his whole family would end up homeless for real.“I can change the company's name to ensure that the
“Kayson…”Sadie’s face was bathed in tears, and her light makeup melted from all the crying. Kayson had a vague feeling in his heart. “Since you were going to meet him, why didn’t you ask me to tag along?”He noticed the injured Liam.Sadie felt even more aggrieved in her heart now that Kayson berated her. ‘How could I know that Dawson would actually try to kill us!?’Dawson spoke. “You’re Kayson?”Kayson looked toward him and said, “The Wolfendens’ third heir?”“I didn’t expect that you’d be sensible enough to know me.”Dawson calmly said, “I didn’t expect you’re a well-trained fighter. Your future is limitless in view of your achievements at such a young age.“My family seeks talent with eagerness. If you’re willing to work for my family, I assure you’ll enjoy boundless wealth and glory for the rest of your life.”Kayson shook his head. “It’s fine. What’s the point of working for a short-lived family?”Dawson’s expression turned solemn, and he said with murderous intent,
“Let’s try it out then.”Kayson landed a palm strike while Dawson looked on in disbelief.“You—”Kayson’s energy hit Dawson’s head, killing him on the spot as he slowly fell limp to the floor. The arrogant third heir of the Wolfendens died just like this.The middle-aged bodyguards widened their eyes in horror. Their third heir had just died!Even Sadie looked frozen, not expecting Kayson to really do anything.“A-Are you crazy? Do you want to get killed!?” Mr. West eventually woke up and stared at Dawson’s body in disbelief.Kayson disregarded him as he approached Wilson, who was pale with a wet crotch.“Mr. Gillete, you haven’t been sleeping well these two nights, huh?”Wilson shuddered. “It was you…”He fell to his knees with a plop. “Mr. Yarde, I’m wrong! Please forgive me! I won’t pick on Wolfenden Corp. ever again!”He had almost skinned himself these two nights. It had been just his legs, but it had gone to his back now. Where next? His neck? Face? Wilson felt like pa
“Hello, I am Bradley Walton.”The name felt familiar to Sadie, like she had heard it somewhere. Suddenly, realization struck her! It was the Waltons’ previous patriarch—Bradley Walton!“Y-You’re Mr. Walton Sr. from the Waltons?”“That’s me. This is my son, Hogan Walton, my daughter-in-law, Catherine White, and my granddaughter, Yulene Walton.” Bradley smiled.The Waltons had been keeping a low profile in recent years, so Sadie could not recognize them since she had never come in touch with them. She felt a little out of place as they were notable names.“Nice to meet you, Mr. Walton Sr…”“You don’t have to be—”“Mr. Walton Sr., do head back if you don’t have any matter pertaining to us.” Zachary interrupted him abruptly.An experienced old man like Bradley understood Zachary’s hint immediately. Although he had doubts, it would be tactless to ask about it openly.“I won’t hold you up then, Dr. Ewell.” Bradley and his family turned to leave without saying anything to Kayson.A
Kayson frowned slightly, not expecting words to get out so fast. It seemed that the Wolfendens’ third heir did have a lot of attention on him.“Yes.” Kayson had no plan of denying it.“As I expected…” Michael did not admonish or reprimand him but told him in worry, “Come to my place. The Whitmans aren’t comparable to the Wolfendens, but we have support behind us too.“As long as you stay with us, the Wolfendens won’t dare push it even if they come.”Kayson was surprised at the offer and could not help feeling the warmth that gushed within him. He did not expect Michael to be so concerned for him. Michael knew that he had offended the Wolfendens, but he stepped out to protect him instead of keeping a distance from him.“Uncle Michael, it’s fine. I’ll wait for the Wolfendens to come for me.”Michael wanted to say more, but Kayson diverted the topic. “Uncle Michael, I need to find a herb named Bocca Fruit within 36 hours. Do you think you’ll have a way?”“Bocca Fruit… Is it rare?
“Master, it’s me, Lincoln!”“Lincoln? Why are you calling?” A voice that obviously belonged to an old man sounded on the other end of the line.Lincoln began to sob.“Master, help! The seniors who came with me are both dead!”“What happened!?” Lincoln’s mentor was furious as his tone went grim.Lincoln told him about what happened instantly.“Kayson Yarde! How dare you kill my mentee! Very well, I shall forgo my title as the Steelification Doyen if I don’t kill you!”Lincoln was delighted. Would his mentor take revenge personally?“I shall depart in another two days. Stay home and wait. Before your seniors and I arrive, do not fight Kayson Yarde again!”Lincoln jolted. His two other seniors who were like his uncles were coming as well? It was fantastic!“Mmph! Uhh… Uhh!” Tuckson, who was in the wheelchair next to him, kept making noises.Lincoln’s gaze was piercing as he said resentfully, “Dad, don’t worry. With my mentor and seniors taking action together, Kayson will have
