“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'
Kayson smiled and said nonchalantly, “You truly live up to your reputation of being the Tinsleys’ heiress. I almost fell for your trick.”He was no longer the clueless hothead he was when he first came to the city in the past. Shyla’s expression remained unchanged, and she said calmly, “I’m only giving you a sincere suggestion without any altruistic motive.”Kayson smiled but did not comment further. Shyla felt dejected and displeased in her heart upon noticing the situation. She appeared calm on the surface but turned her head to look outside of the window. Meanwhile, a figure walked past the outside. The person halted to a stop upon seeing Shyla, and he expressed his delight.Shyla said, “Bumped into an old friend from high school.”Kayson nodded while the figure that Shyla saw across the glass window earlier had already walked into the place as soon as Shyla finished her sentence.It was a handsome young man with a tall, well-proportioned figure. His features were more th
The guests in the surroundings looked on. Someone grinned and said, “Precisely. Enchantment, do you think this is a movie or something?”Someone from the other table chimed in by saying, “People these days have the courage to cook up nonsense with anything.”“The girl is having a drink with an old friend willingly. You’re not his boyfriend, so why do you meddle in her affair?”The shift manager of the restaurant came rushing over as well and expressed his shock. “Mr. Jaycox, what brings you here?”Brandon took a glance at the manager and found the person to look familiar, yet he could not recognize him. “Who are you?”The shift manager said with a flattering smile, “Don’t you remember me? I was at Mr. Russell’s party previously.”“Ah!” Brandon remembered him now and said, “I remember now. You’re one of Mr. Russell’s subordinates, right? What’s your name again?”The shift manager said respectfully, “My name is Shane Hoffman, but you can just call me Hoffman.”Brandon’s gaz
The middle-aged man’s eyes glistened with a violent glint. Kayson said nonchalantly, “Your staff members attacked me first. Could it be that it is still my fault for fighting back?“According to you, I’m supposed to stand there obediently while this Hoffman beats me to death?”The middle-aged man sneered and said, “Since you’re in Eden Joy’s establishment, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t behave yourself and stand there obediently.”Shyla furrowed her eyebrows and said, “I’m Shyla, Jeremy Tinsley’s daughter. If I’ve offended you in any way, I hope that you can forgive us.”“The Tinsleys?”The middle-aged man’s gaze was cold. “Are you trying to intimidate Eden Joy with just your family’s reputation?“Let alone you’re just a clueless girl, not even if your grandfather Tyrone is here will be adequate!”Upon saying that, a powerful aura burst forth from the middle-aged man’s body. A formless strand of energy shot toward Shyla like an invisible needle!Kayson’s gaze was icy col
Mr. Russell entered the Skyworth House with his subordinates. The restaurant was one of Eden Joy’s establishments that he owned. Moreover, the restaurant was doing rather well, with an annual net profit of $15,000,000 to $30,000,000. Hence, he had assigned a powerful master to monitor the restaurant so people would not stir up trouble here.However, something bad happened at the establishment that he was very confident in today. “Who is the friend who created a disturbance in my territory? Don’t you know that this is Eden Joy’s establishment?”Arno Russell’s gaze swept toward Kayson as soon as he entered the place. “Is it you, boy?”Kayson said nonchalantly, “I suppose. Brandon hypnotized my friend, and you’re going to give me a proper explanation on this.”Arno frowned and looked toward Brandon next to him. “Arno! The boy is rude, insolent, and shows no respect to Eden Joy!”Brandon immediately complained to Arno. Arno’s gaze was solemn as he said, “Don’t worry, my frie
Perhaps, not even Arno could protect him. All of a sudden, Arno burst out in laughter. “You’re really good at fighting, my friend. I’m truly sorry for getting into conflict with you when we’re supposed to be on the same side!”Kayson thought about how good Arno was at suppressing his emotions instantly and how Arno was not a reckless man.“How may I address you, my friend?”“Kayson Yarde!”“Mr. Yarde! I’m really sorry for the incident today. I didn’t expect that we’d get ourselves in such a huge misunderstanding. Why don’t I punish myself by having a few drinks as my apology? What do you think about that?”Kayson took a glance at him and placed the pendant on the table. “Bring the person who forged the pendant to me, and today’s incident shall be forgotten.”Arno’s pupils constricted abruptly. Soon afterward, he said smilingly, “Mr. Yarde, I commissioned an expert to forge it many years ago, and the expert has already vanished for a long time.“It is truly quite impossible to
Shyla kept a calm expression as she looked at her wrist that Kayson held. The corners of her lips curled into a barely discernible smile. Kayson let go of her hand with a normal expression on his face after they walked away for a distance. Shyla felt rather disappointed in her heart but did not show it. She said, “My father is already looking into Eden Joy, so we should be able to receive detailed intel on them soon.”Kayson nodded. “We need to look into Eden Joy properly. I’m afraid that the organization is not as simple as it seems.”He remembered Brandon’s pendant. It was a simple object but very effective in manipulating ordinary women. As they were speaking, Jeremy’s call came.Shyla said, “Father.”Jeremy said in a solemn tone, “I didn’t manage to find any issue with Eden Joy.”Shyla was stunned. “No issue?”Jeremy said, “The biggest issue is when there’s no issue. A large enterprise like Eden Joy should not be that clean.“Moreover, I didn’t notice that in the pas
“This person could tell at one glance that something was off with Brandon’s pendant. If this person really knows something, he’s going to be a huge threat to Eden Joy.”Zeke would rather mistakenly kill him than let him off. Moreover, the boy was trying to take over the Skyworth House from them. How could they possibly not care about their establishment that made an annual profit of $15,000,000 to $30,000,000?Even though Eden Joy was wealthy, it did not belong solely to Zeke and his son!They were only two of the top-level executives. After coming up with an idea, Zeke looked toward the old man wearing a robe next to him. He looked like a sorcerer with long hair. “Master Sandford, I’m afraid that we will need you to take the trouble on this.”Master Sandford said with a calm expression, “Sure, just prepare the money.”Master Sandford was a pre-celestial fighter who was exceptionally well-trained in fighting. He was commissioned by Eden Joy to kill quite a number of people,
