In that instant, a single thought flashed through everyone's mind, including Simon's—this guy is a beast.The air in the room seemed to freeze.However, Jacob watched with burning eyes, visibly excited.Wolf quickly moved to stand beside Austin, ready to fight by his side."Step back," Austin said coldly."Mr. Campbell, I—" Wolf hesitated."They're just a bunch of nobodies. I can handle this alone," Austin's voice was cold and commanding, leaving no room for argument.But that one sentence, full of arrogance and dominance, struck a nerve in Simon and his men like a thousand sharp needles."Damn it, what are you waiting for? Get him!" Simon shouted.The remaining men, still shaken, exchanged glances before their expressions hardened, and they rushed at Austin.Austin moved like a phantom, his fists and feet leaving behind a trail of afterimages as they whipped through the air with deadly force.Austin had seen far worse in his life.This scuffle, which barely rose above the

"Let it. He's your brother, after all. There's no need to make a fuss. Let them in." Derrick said generously, waving his hand.Ethan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly instructed the person outside to let them in.When Austin walked into the hall, dragging Simon behind him, the room erupted in gasps of shock.Everyone's faces went pale."Simon!" Ethan's expression turned grim, and the alcohol-fueled haze in his mind cleared a bit."Mr. Brook..." Simon, who had been in fear and confusion, snapped back to reality at the sound of Ethan's voice.He wailed pitifully, "It's him! He wants to see you!""Damn it!" Ethan exploded in fury, disregarding Derrick's presence as he angrily shouted.Everyone else in the room was also livid, glaring at Austin and those behind him, Jacob and Wolf.How dare they beat Simon to this state—were they trying to get themselves killed by Ethan?However, no one noticed that Derrick, who had been standing at the table with a brush in hand, suddenly fr

"No, no, this won't do. Such wonderful news—Cecily being pregnant—I must return home and devote myself to creating a special painting for her and the little one," Derrick said as he left.Watching Derrick go, Austin couldn't help but chuckle.No wonder he's a master. He managed to handle everything with such finesse, keeping both dignity and face intact.In doing so, he subtly helped Austin and, in a way, saved Ethan as well.This brief encounter left Ethan and everyone else feeling as though they were in a dream.All eyes turned to the painting in Ethan's hands, including Ethan's own.Ethan had practically begged for a painting, and Derrick, in response, casually sketched a pig.But for Austin, Derrick offered to painstakingly create a masterpiece without even being asked.The difference was like night and day!"Whew..." Ethan rubbed his temples, exhaling a breath laced with the scent of alcohol, before once again breaking into a smile.The atmosphere in the room shifted as

Austin knocked softly on the door.Almost immediately, he heard the sound of shuffling from inside.Ezra opened the door, his face full of curiosity. "Sir, what's going on?"Austin quickly made a shushing gesture, worried about disturbing Cecily.Then he gently pushed Ezra back into the room."Sorry to bother you so late, Mr. Lockwood," Austin said.Ezra smiled. "It's no trouble at all. The older you get, the less you need. I was just reading."Austin glanced at the book on Ezra's bedside table and couldn't help but feel a bit exasperated.This old rascal!Ezra blushed and quickly shoved the book under his pillow.Austin sat on the bed and pulled up the text message from Walter, showing it to Ezra."I just received this message."When Ezra read the text, his eyes lit up with a sharp gleam, and he was overjoyed. "This is from Mr. Walter!"Austin nodded, his expression serious. "But I've sent several messages back, and there's been no reply. I called twice—once it was immedi

Austin's gaze softened as warmth flooded his heart.Who hasn't longed for a light left on just for them in a sea of lights? But in reality, how many actually have that?Cecily did that for him.Given her background, the fact that she went to such lengths truly surprised Austin.In the three years he spent in the past, he had never experienced something like this.His nose tingled with emotion as he pulled Cecily into his arms, speaking softly, "Thank you. Marrying you is the greatest fortune of my life.""Alright, alright, I asked Raquel to prepare breakfast earlier this morning. You go to the dining room, and I'll have her bring it over," Cecily said as she gently slipped out of Austin's embrace, her graceful smile lighting up her eyes."Doesn't Bamboo Parlor have a kitchen?" Austin asked, curious.Cecily gave him a playful look. "The chairs in the living room are so hard, and you spent the whole night on one—how could you have slept well? If Raquel had been clattering around
