A few minutes later, the Rolls-Royce Ghost started and followed behind the discreet vehicle.Inside the Ghost, Shingen was sitting face-to-face with the others. He lit up a cigar and gave it a huff before asking, "What's your view with the Xaviers' attitude in this?""Very strange," Mizukakushi said.She was a sensual woman with a figure typical of an Islander. She was also someone who could make it to the big screen. However, a woman like her was extremely sensitive to all kinds of information. She had found out many useful things when she was with Shingen.That was why Shingen instinctively asked for her opinion."Normally speaking, a huge family like the Xaviers of Wolsing wouldn't be unsophisticated. The young ladies from their families should have already been engaged with the sons from other similarly top families."However, they had contacted the Shinto Way not long ago and proposed a marriage for you. From what I gathered, the Xaviers didn't find a woman from a branch fam
Shingen nodded and hummed in acknowledgment. At the same time, he took out another cigar and started to smoke. After he was done with the first puff, he said, "You said these are all on the surface. Why don't you tell me what's under the shadows?"Mizukakushi nodded and said, "Maybe it's me being too suspicious, but I found out something the Xaviers had never told us. Yvonne has been working as Harvey's right-hand woman for a long time, and the two of them often appear together."In other words, Yvonne might have belonged to Harvey already. If you're going to steal his woman, he's going to go against you until the bitter end.""Harvey?" Shingen was slightly taken aback. "Why is this name so familiar to me?""Of course you're familiar with ut. He's the one who has ruined Shindan Way and Shinkage Way's plans in HK City. Even our men from Shinto Way in the outskirts have suffered in his hand. In other words, this man is our public enemy. Unfortunately, he's still living a good long
Only when the old man had put down the brush in his hand did Jesse take a step forward and say, "Sir, Mr. Shingen from the Shinto Way has arrived."The old man turned and let out a smile. "I am Nashon Xavier. I'm glad to finally meet you."Shingen smiled and said, "You're too kind, Mr. Nashon. I know what I'm capable of, so please stop teasing me."Shingen didn't want to waste his breath anymore, and immediately steered the conversation to the topic of the day."Since the Xavier family has invited me to Wolsing for a marriage proposal, I wonder if my possible fiancee is already here? I'm not exactly particular about this, but I don't believe I'm asking too much if I wish to see the woman who's going to be my wife earlier, right?""Of course not, of course not." Nashon laughed and waved his hand. "Jesse, ask your sister to come out here."Jesse smiled and left. After a while, Yvonne appeared in front of all of them while wearing a white traditional dress. She didn't wear any makeu
"Sir, while the blood of the Xavier family does flow within my veins, the Shaw family is the one that raised me. I'm afraid not even I can decide who to marry. Only the Shaws have the right to decide that for me. "It doesn't matter how I look at it. The Xaviers have no right to do this… Especially when you're asking me to marry an Islander. You're dreaming!"With that, Yvonne added determinedly, "You want me to marry him? Over my dead body!"When Nashon heard what Yvonne had to say, his expression darkened. "Yvonne, don't forget that this is part of our deal. The family has used our yearly privilege to assist you in helping that man and used our men in Dragon Cell to silence the critics. And now, you wish to turn your back on us?"I can make Harvey innocent, but I can also make him guilty. Whether he's innocent or guilty is in your hands. That's why I must ask you to reconsider before speaking another word."Yvonne spat coldly, "If I have to marry an Islander to make free Harve
"Shingen, is it?" Yvonne said as she took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down. "Of the Tokugawa family from the Island Nation? The Scion of Shinto Way, the leading school of the Six Schools? The top three of the Top Ten Young Islanders? Did these things give you such confidence and arrogance in our country?""Aren't these enough?" Shingen gave Yvonne a meaningful smile. "Since you know me that well, then you know these aren't all my strengths. If I reveal everything that I have, the entire world will shudder before me."Yvonne said coldly, "Go on, boast some more. Don't forget where you are right now. You're in the territory of the Xaviers of Wolsing, one of the top ten families in Wolsing. One of the most powerful factions in this country. You can kill us, but we will suffer any of your humiliation!"The eyes of some of the members of the Xavier family standing at the side flashed when they heard what Yvonne had to say. A few couldn't help but take a step forward, glaring a
Yvonne laughed when she heard what Nashon had to say, but it was laced with disdain.Nashon continued, "I also want to remind you of one thing. After you have accepted and enjoyed everything the Xavier name has given you, you should understand that you have to pay a price. Fate has given you everything, Fate has also determined that price."I'm not asking you to marry Mr. Shingen. I'm simply informing you. You'll marry him whether you like it or not. Even if you kill yourself right now, I'll deliver your corpse to the Island Nation all the same. Understand?"Yvonne smiled coldly. "You're so shameless, Nashon. Since when have the Xaviers of Wolsing raised me? Since when have I used any of your resources? And here I was wondering what made all of you ungrateful people suddenly change and want to make peace with me."All of that is because you want me to marry some man? The thing I regret the most right now is my desire to rejoin the Xavier family. If I had known, I would've just kept
Yvonne spat coldly, "You didn't hear it clearly enough? I'm saying you're an animal! Or do you want me to tell you that you're even worse than an animal?!"Yvonne fished into her pocket, but Shingen moved his foot and stomped her wrist. He crouched, then pulled out a gun from her pocket."Tsk… A gun especially made against martial arts warriors. Even a True Warrior won't have an easy time if he takes this point blank, right? This is the culmination of Country A's genetic research. The power it possesses is no weaker than the so-called martial arts lethal weapons from your country."Oh, you want to kill me using this? I'm so scared! What should we do if we're afraid? We should, of course, face our fear directly in the eye…"Shingen immediately broke Yvonne's wrist by exerting his weight on his foot.Yvonne grunted, feeling the pain slowly spreading out. Sweat covered her head.However, not only did she beg for mercy at this time, she didn't even scream. She simply looked at Shinge
"It has nothing to do with pity. However, the Xavier family is still a reputable family. If you do something like this before your marriage, even if it's just with an illegitimate daughter of ours, it is enough to damage our reputation," Nashon said with a sigh."For my sake, please don't touch her for now. Once she has married into your family, we won't complain no matter what you want to do to her. Once a woman marries into your family, she is your responsibility, so you have my permission to do whatever you wish. We are all members of high society, so you have to show us this much respect at least."Shingen looked at Nashon, whose face was stern. After a moment, he chuckled. "Fine. I'll let this be for your sake, Mr. Nashon. However, Selene's Blessing has no cure. Let her drink three glasses of amaranth beer each day to suppress the effects of the drugs. The effects of the drugs would compound and burst the day she stopped drinking the beer."However, I believe that day is also
