Gusto glanced at his brother after the two guards had left. "Brother, should we reject it first?" Gusto whispered."Reject it? How can we reject the proposal after we have agreed to it?" Gusto's brother was enraged."What if it was known to the public? I'm afraid that everyone will say that our family does not honor promises and has no integrity. Moreover, the Babylon is not a typical organization anyway. How would they feel if we suddenly rejected them just like this?" Gusto's brother spoke in exasperation."But there's nothing I can do about it. I can't do anything against my rebellious son. How about you go ahead and bring Jeanette back home?" Gusto whispered. Gusto's brother's lips twitched uncontrollably as a response. "If you can't do anything against your son, can I do anything against him?"He was not courageous and powerful enough to take someone away from Jason."Why don't we inform Babylon about this? Didn't my rebellious son say that someone wants to meet him?" Gusto
The old man only nodded lightly as a response and no longer asked them to stay. Madison then tidied up his collar and spoke softly, "The weather is getting cold. You should not go outdoors. I'll come and visit you in the future.""Yes, of course." The old man nodded and then watched Madison and Jason as they left.The freezing cold permeated the air. "That old man was my teacher. It was also deep in the winter when I ran away from home when I was young. I was cold and hungry, and it was he who took me to his home. His wife saved my life. Now, I suddenly realized that so many years had passed within the blink of an eye," Madison spoke softly with an affectionate gaze as she looked at Jason, who bent down to tie her shoelaces."So this old man wants to make you his daughter-in-law?" Jason stood up and smiled."Can you stop being such a petty person?" Madison pouted her lips."This is not about me being a petty person. Any lunatic who is scheming after my darling deserves to die." Ja
At this moment, the sound of a heavy object impacting the ground was heard as a man's wallet had suddenly dropped onto the ground not far away."Madison," that man gently spoke those words.Madison raised her head and glanced at the man, then spoke softly, "You have returned.""Yes." The man nodded, then picked up his purse.A hint of amusement could be seen in Jason's eyes. He had already discovered this man some time ago and clearly recognized his identity based on his demeanor. "Your significant other?" the man asked."Technically, I should be regarded as her husband. No matter what feelings you might have had in the past, I advise you to get rid of any ideas by now. My name is Jason Sky. You can go and ask around. You can go ahead and try if you think that you have what it takes to compete with me." Jason spoke cruelly.Jason had not cared about any of his stories. He only knew that the woman in his arms belonged to only him and no one else. He would not allow anyone else to
"The marriage is agreed upon by the Babylon and Hill Family. It seems like it has no relation to you, isn't it?" Zach frowned and spoke in annoyance.Obviously, he did not know about Jason's relationship with the Hill Family. After all, the information was only known to the members of the three great families while no one else would know about it. Moreover, it was actually something shameful, so none of them would ever spread this information to the public."It's not your business to decide if it's related to me. No matter what, Jeanette will not be married. Feel free to talk to me about it if you want her." Jason smirked."Someone like you?" Zach was instantly flustered.Slap! The next moment, Jason heavily slapped Zach's face and then casually retrieved his hand."Could it be that your elders in the Babylon had never taught you about the principle that you should follow in the martial arts community, that you should respect the strong? What right do you have to speak loudly to m
Even if anyone wished to bother him, none of their attempts would succeed since they had to deal with Ava first.Jason would start taking action once the New Year was here.'Babylon? Heheh… Come to think of it. No one has ever unveiled their secrets.' In that case, Jason would not mind breaking that record.He felt that it was also an opportunity for him to completely determine the true strength of the martial arts community in the current era.The night was calm. Diana stood in front of Jason obediently. She was still wearing thin clothing despite it being winter, which completely showed off her attractive figure."The New Year is about to come. I'll give you a couple of days off. Of course, it's fine if you refuse to take the vacation as well. It's all up to you," Jason told Diana.She had already reached the Grandmaster Realm. Her diligence and dedication were obvious to see since she had likely reached that realm while he was hospitalized. Although an individual on the Grandm
Jason nodded and followed Ken out of the courtyard. "You're going against the Babylon?" Ken asked Jason.Jason shrugged and made no comment.It was reasonable that Ken would come to know of it since it was impossible to hide such a massive event from the Sky Family. This was probably also the reason why Ken had personally come to visit. If the Sky Family only wished to send Jason some gifts, it would not be necessary for the heir of the family to come personally."It's no longer a small affair. The Babylon has the intention to stir the pot and to isolate you from the rest of the martial arts community," Ken told Jason.Jason chuckled as a response. It was obvious that Babylon would spare no expense in messing with him since he had acted arrogantly back then."You're still laughing? You were always capable of handling matters appropriately. Why would you be so impulsive this time?" Ken spoke to Jason in annoyance.If he could actually defeat Jason, he would have smacked him alread
"Even if it's great stuff, we can't keep it until it spoils anyway!" Madison spoke helplessly.She clearly knew of her mother's temperament. Farah was a utilitarian and slightly petty person. To have her give these high-quality goods away to people would be akin to making her slice off her own flesh."Then we'll give it away!" Farah spoke with a sorrowful expression.Then, she started picking items and reserving the best ones for her own family.The second uncle's family members were the earliest to arrive. There was also a young man who came along and referred to Madison as his sister. Then, he glanced at Jason and hesitated silently. "Call him your brother-in-law. You idiot!" He eventually greeted Jason after receiving a slap from his second uncle.Jason smirked and asked, "Have you graduated?""Just like Miranda, he will start interning after the New Year," the second uncle replied."Yes, that's quite good." Jason nodded lightly."If you are staying in Mediterrania, make sur
At this moment, he suddenly understood the actions that the Sky Family had taken back then as they had abandoned her. If it was Jason himself who was faced with this situation, it was likely that he would be absolutely furious as well.The second uncle only smirked as he looked at Jason, who was deeply in thought. He did not know what to say to further the conversation.Actually, he felt that his son was not as dull as he proclaimed. It was possible that his son was actually frightened and no longer dared to speak after receiving his previous advice.At this moment, Icy, Lucy, and Lillian had arrived, and they greeted Madison. For an inexplicable reason, they would always feel a little trepidation when they were faced with Madison.This certain behavior was not related to Jason at all since nothing could happen between them. However, they would still show a little more respect to Madison.It was likely that they had done it because they were women that worked as Jason's subordinat
