"Okay, okay! I know! Ugh, this is such a drag!" Megan replied impatiently to her mother."I think you should take a step back when it comes to anything involving her love life, Mom. Whether or not the guy she likes is rich doesn't matter because we already have more than enough to spend for the rest of our lives. If he's poor, we can just let him stay with our family as a live-in son-in-law." Diane comforted Felicia."But… but I just want the best for her!" Felicia grumbled.They soon went back into their respective cars, but unlike earlier, it was Severin and Diane's car that was at the front. After all, they were the ones who chose which hotel to stay, so the other cars merely followed behind them. However, Severin did not expect to be stopped by several of the city's guards when he reached the city entrance."Is something the matter?" Severin got out of the car and asked the guard.The person who seemed to be in charge said with a smile, "My apologies, but anyone who wishes to
Megan smiled immediately and said, "Hehe, you're the best! Diane was right to choose you."Diane rolled her eyes at Megan as soon as she heard that remark. "Then why did you initially persuade me to leave him? You were just as insistent on persuading me to be with Edward even when Severin had returned!"Megan smiled awkwardly. "That's… that's because we didn't see the bigger picture."Felicia then said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Diane. We couldn't have known then that Severin was such an amazing individual. At that time, he was an ex-convict, and Edward was the son of a second-tier family. We were hoping that you could choose someone who can give you a good life.""Okay, Mom. Let's not talk about the past. Let's just look to the future and live happily," Diane said. She did not want to talk to Felicia and Megan about that."Yeah, I know!" Felicia immediately smiled. "The past is in the past, and we need to look ahead. Our life will only get better and better in the future.""Well
"Maybe you can treat them all to dinner. I bet they'll throw themselves all over us once they know our background." The fat guy remarked when he saw Arnie's excitement.After thinking for some time, Arnie finally said, "They dress well, so there's a chance they're not gold diggers. If anything, all ten of them might be married to that man!""Whoa! That guy is one lucky b*stard then!" the fatty said. "My women ate all the good stuff after coming home with me, and now they're all plump. I can't be bothered to go home anymore, and I'd much rather have fun outside."Dave joked, "Don't your women get angry at you if you're never at home, Moby? Aren't they going to give you a hard time?"Moby said coldly, "Give me a hard time? Please. They wouldn't dare. As far as I know, they're more worried about me chasing them out of the home! They know how much their quality of life will drop if they're kicked out. They're living the high life right now, and all they do is eat, drink, and laze aroun
After all, that was not their first time encountering such a situation.Before Diane and the others could say anything, Moby immediately said, "This handsome young man here is Arnie Pearson, the scion of a second-tier family. If you think about it, it's quite formidable for a family to be recognized as a second-tier family in a place like Skystream City. An upper-tier family like his is considered to be one of the truly wealthy families."However, Severin said with a cold smile, "I'm sorry, but we've never met you, and we're not the kind of people who would want to take advantage of other people's kindness. We appreciate your gesture, but we'd be more comfortable staying in a hotel."Severin was perceptive enough to know that Arnie had ulterior motives for being courteous to them, but he nevertheless refused politely because he did not want to cause trouble in a place like Skystream City.Arnie's lips twitched a few times, and he did not expect that Severin would reject him so deci
Severin sighed helplessly when he looked at Arnie's stubbornness. He took a step forward and said, "Are you sure? If you want to court death, then I'll show you what true despair is so you don't go around thinking that you can do whatever you want in Skystream City.""Haha, you're one mad lad! Get him, boys! Kill him and capture all his women!" Arnie ordered his bodyguards with a wave of his hand. He fumed when he saw Severin fearlessly making such ruthless remarks to him."Charge!" The bodyguards rushed up immediately.Their attainment was not very low since most of them have reached level seven or level eight profound master. In smaller cities, those who had similar strength levels were usually the leaders of the smaller forces. By contrast, such individuals in Skystream City were—at most—ordinary bodyguards who served upper-tier families.There were two bodyguards with a higher attainment base than the rest. One had reached level two warrior king, while the other was level four
The other guy frowned too. "He's dealing with our attacks head-on without using any skills or techniques! Can he even withstand the attack?"However, a huge roar sounded at almost the same time, and both the huge tiger and the flying sword were smashed into pieces by Severin's punch. They crumbled into pieces in midair and turned into powder."That's… that's impossible! How?!" The level two warrior king was so frightened that he retreated two steps back. He shook his head repeatedly, with his face full of disbelief."How did he even achieve that?! He couldn't have been able to withstand that attack if he isn't at least a level six warrior king! He did it so easily too! Could he be a level seven warrior king?" Khaled was also stunned by the scene before him and could only stand there in a daze."Hehe. Time for you to meet your maker!" Severin had no plans to show them any mercy as he dashed toward them and punched both his fists into their chest before they could react.The two war
"What else can we do except carry their bodies and go home right away?" Arnie then gritted his teeth and said, "He and his ten women are staying in this hotel, so it should be easy to find out more about them. I'll head home, inform my father, and bring our strongest men over here. My goal today is to end his life."Moby was just as angry, but he still had the clarity of mind to say to Arnie, "Are you sure you want to tell your father about this? He doesn't like it when you go out hitting on women. You might succeed in bringing your men to kill that kid, but you might not get the chance to play with any of those girls.""That’s right," Dave chimed in. "Knowing your father, he'll take one look at those women and know what's going on. Even if he avenges you and kills that guy, he'll let those women go instead of allowing you to bring them away with you. They're all weak women, after all."Arnie's lips twitched a couple of times, but when he thought of the humiliation that he had suffe
The receptionist looked at Severin in awe. She found him to be quite handsome, and she had no idea which wealthy family was he from to have so many beautiful women around him."Sir, I'm sorry, but we no longer have any ordinary rooms available. Only luxury suites are available right now, but they're on the pricier side." The receptionist said with a smile.Megan's expression soured as she retorted, "What are you trying to imply by that? Do you think that we're unable to afford a luxury suite? How expensive are they, anyway?""One suite costs three thousand dollars a night!""That's super expensive!" Megan was taken aback by the price.The receptionist then explained, "These luxury suites weren't that expensive before, but the price has been driven up because the province governor will be celebrating his sixtieth birthday party. Many who come here from other cities or other provinces are wealthy, so this demand for good rooms in expensive hotels makes the room prices go up.""I se
