“Grandpa, how did you get injured so seriously out of the blue? Who did this to you!?” Rose questioned furiously. She would not let the culprit off the hook, no matter who it was.Gerald replied impassively, “Your father came with some men.”Rose’s eyes widened before she retorted, “That’s not my father!”Her eyes were filled with resentment and wrath.The realization then struck Kayson. Gerald was Rose’s maternal grandfather, but she shared the same last name as him. Kayson had thought that Rose’s father had the last name Templar as well, but it seemed there was another story behind it.Gerald spoke up. “Excuse us for the embarrassment, Dr. Yarde.”“Nothing like that. Let me know if there’s anything I can help with,” replied Kayson.Gerald sighed. “To be honest, I do have a favor to ask from you.”“Do tell.”At that point, Gerald talked about Rose’s parents.Rose’s mother, Amelia Templar, was a kindhearted woman, but because Gerald had kept her so cocooned in safety, she had
Gerald’s gaze was icy as well. “I didn’t expect him to dare step in the Templars, bringing others along.”“What’s he doing in our house? Why did he hurt you?” Rose gnashed her teeth.Gerald’s gaze was dim as he sighed. “He wants to take you with him.”Rose was appalled. “Take me with him? On what ground? I’m a Templar, not an Irving!”Gerald said nothing but told Kayson seriously, “Dr. Yarde, I’d like to ask you to take Rose with you.“Jenson, that scum has bought over the majority of the people in the Templars. I spent the past few years trying to treat my injuries, and he’s infiltrated too much.“I’m unable to protect Rose, but you’re a grandmaster and defeated Nicholas Scott. You’re my last hope.“His intention to take Rose away will never be to compensate her or anything like that. I can’t let him get Rose.”Kayson smiled and shook his head. “No, Elder Master Templar, I can’t take Rose away. The one who should be running should be Jenson Irving.“Not you and Rose, the vict
“My daughter dearest, come on out and meet your daddy!”Gerald was on his guard immediately. Rose clenched her jaw in rage while her eyes went red.“Dr. Yarde…” Gerald was still thinking of asking Kayson to escape with Rose through the backdoor.Kayson stated flatly, “Don’t worry, Elder Master Templar. No matter who it is behind him, I’ll make him pay for everything he’s done today.”Gerald was astonished, but Kayson had already gone to the front with Rose following closely behind him.There, a middle-aged man wearing a suit with his hair slicked back stood by the door with his men looking triumphant. It was none other than Jenson Irving.He looked pleased when he saw Rose but scowled the moment he caught a glimpse of Kayson and snarled, “Who are you? Stay away from my daughter!”“Who’s your daughter? Stop it!” Rose snapped.Jenson frowned. “Rose, what are you talking about? I’m your dad! You can’t deny our connection of blood!”“This is the first time I’m seeing someone as sh
Master Gould, who was about to get rid of Gerald, was slightly stunned. He did not know why, but the cup in front of him exuded a dangerous aura. It made him feel like it was a powerful weapon in front of him instead of a teacup, and he had the feeling that he must not let the teacup touch him. Therefore, he decisively gave up the attack on Gerald. Gerald turned around but did not have the guts to take a step forward, and his eyes were filled with fear.He was a grandmaster right now, yet he was still no match for Master Gould. He couldn’t sense his presence at all, but how could a living person erase his presence completely?Not only that, but he did not sense anything at all when he attacked him.“Elder Master Templar, let me handle him,” said Kayson, taking a step forward.Jenson scoffed and said, “Kid, this is the first time I've seen someone in such a hurry to die.”Kayson replied indifferently, “Die? There are indeed people who can kill me in this world, but it will
Gerald took a step forward, and Jenson pleaded, “Dad! I’m the one Amelia loved the most, Dad!“I’m your son-in-law, so you can’t kill me!”“Shut up!”Gerald felt nothing but a surge of disgust coursing inside of him. His eyes turned bloodshot when he heard how Jenson addressed him.This was the man who had cheated on his daughter. He was the one who had caused his daughter to fall to her death from such a high place.His heart was filled with nothing but hatred right now.“Speak! Why are you looking for Rose? Don't tell me that you're coming back for her because you want to make it up for her. I don't believe in such sh*tty excuses! After all, no one knows better than me what kind of a person you are.”Jenson’s face was filled with snots as he pressed on. “I… I really just want to make it up for Rose, Dad. You’ve got to trust me.”Kayson chimed in indifferently. “Elder Master Templar, I have a way to make him spill the truth. Just make sure you record down everything he says.
Now that the crisis of the Templars had been lifted, Gerald would be able to handle the rest himself.After parting with the Templars, Kayson followed Master Gould to his place.“Judging from your strength, you could have killed Elder Master Templar easily. But why didn’t you do that?” Although Kayson had his own speculation, he still wanted to hear the answer from Master Gould.Master Gould said, “I have no feud against him, and I’m forced to work for Eden Joy.“I had already seriously wounded him back then, so I didn't want to take his life. It's just that I didn't expect Jenson would bring other people there as well.“If you hadn’t stepped in, Gerald would’ve been dead.”As they were talking, they arrived at a neighborhood. Inside Master Gould's house, a girl who seemed to be in her 20s at most was sitting motionless next to the window. The girl had a pair of beautiful eyes, but there was no light in them as she stared out of the window blankly.“Mr. Yarde, she’s my grand
Kayson came to Skyspring International Airport and smiled when Shyla appeared in his vision.The one who had called him was none other than Shyla. Kayson asked, “What brought you back here again?”Shyla said, “My dad just got into an accident, so of course, I need to come back.”Kayson felt she was right as well. After all, Jeremy was her father.“How is my father?”“He’s fine right now.”Shyla sighed. “Thank you. I’m sure it must be you who saved my father, right?”Kayson replied softly, “I’m just doing what I should do.”Shyla smiled as she looked into Kayson’s eyes.Soon, both of them returned to the Tinsleys. Jeremy had already gotten a lot better.Shyla said helplessly, “Dad, I thought you got into an accident. But why are you walking even faster than me right now?”Jeremy chuckled and replied, “This is all thanks to Kayson. He’s really the most amazing person I’ve ever seen in my life. Calling him the best doctor isn’t enough anymore.”Shyla knew that her father and
“Cheat?”Tyrone and his son were dumbfounded, but Kayson knew very well what Shyla was trying to say. It seemed to him that this woman was vengeful.When they were drinking last time, he had expelled the alcohol out of his body with his inner energy, and that's how he drank her down.He did not expect her to still remember it even after such a long time had passed. It seemed to him that she was not really happy with that.Shyla brought Kayson to a rather upscale restaurant in her car.“This restaurant is the best in the town. They offer the most authentic dishes, and most of their dishes are affordable.”Kayson said, “Your family is rich. Why do you have to care about money?”Shyla snorted and said, “I'm buying you dinner with the money I earned from my part-time job.”That being said, she was still a university student. No matter how strict the TInsleys were with her, they would still give her some allowance.The good thing was that Shyla did not take advantage of her family'
