Chapter 21
William and Susan couldn't help but burst into laughter, as if they had heard the most humorous joke in the world. "Edward, are you going to hit me for that bitch? I admit, I can't beat you. But do you dare to fight here in such a gathering? Here is Morgan family's territory!" William sneered. Obviously, this guy with poor brain capacity and shrunken mind failed to understand Edward's well-intentioned reminder. You know this is Morgan family's turf, but do you know that you have just offended and insulted the princess of the Morgans? Poor guy, you've dragged your family into hell. Edward did not explain further, only looked at him compassionately and said, "William, I hope you can keep smiling like an idiot without worries." "Fuck! Fuck you!" William cursed angrily. Ignoring him, Edward turned and left. The buffet at the banquet offered a variety of cuisine from around the world, almost all of which he had never seen before. So, he licked his lips and casually indulged in the

Steve's face was pale, trembling all over, perhaps out of fear or anger. William was even more shocked, falling into a daze. "Steve, you...you must be joking, right? She...she...how could she be Miss Morgan..." William was so scared that he started to stutter. "It's impossible, how could Edward, that pauper, possibly make friends with the noble Miss Morgan? Lord Rod, you must have mistaken her!" Susan said in confusion. However, Steve did not answer them. How wish he could fly away with a pair of wings, to keep distance with these two scoundrels. Seeing Steve behave so serious, William and Susan gradually believed in the fact that they didn't want to accept. William's hand holding the wine glass was shaking slightly, and Susan bit her lip tightly. She couldn't accept that her useless ex-husband had gained the favor of a wealthy heiress after their divorce. "It's not...not possible! Edward is a useless coward, he couldn't possibly have contact with Miss Morgan!" Steve sneer
Chapter 23
Susan's voice was not loud, but it seemed particularly abrupt and obvious in such a quiet occasion. Jessica gave her a cold glance, but said nothing. After all, as the representative of the Morgan family, she disdained to engage in a squabble with a barking dog, which would undoubtedly lower her dignity. "Who is that woman? Is she crazy? How dare she offend Miss Morgan?" "She must be mentally unstable!" "I don't know her, but the man next to her seems to be the heir of MC&Dickens." "Humph, MC&Dickens, maybe it has some status in New Angelia, but in front of the Morgans, it's just a piece of trash!" "So ridiculous..." The crowd looked at them coldly, with unfriendly gazes. William's face looked extremely gloomy, as if he had eaten expired canned fish. He wished he could slap Susan, the crazy woman, to death. "Shut up, you fool!" William anxiously lowered his voice and reprimanded. They had unintentionally offended Miss Morgan, and now Susan insulted her again... This stupi
Chapter 24
Edward was wearing a black tailcoat, with a handsome smile on his face, confidently walking onto the stage. He had never participated in such a solemn business occasion before, nor had he ever been so attentively watched by so many tycoons. Therefore, he was actually somewhat nervous inside. However, with Jessica's encouraging gaze, he instantly dispelled the inner tension and brimmed with more confidence. Standing beside Jessica, he surveyed the applauding crowd below the stage. The brief and enthusiastic applause passed, soon discussions surged like a tide. "Edward Flamel, I've never heard of this name." "Flamel? Sounds an old surname, but there seems to be no such family in New Angelia." "Although I haven't heard of him, he looks quite handsome." "..." Meanwhile, William's face turned extremely pale! Trembling his lips, he muttered in disbelief, "No, no... this... it’s impossible!" Clenching his fist, his face full of unwillingness. A man who had once toyed with at his

Jessica stared coldly at Susan, her face filled with hostility. Jessica didn't care about Susan's slander towards her, but she wouldn't allow her to insult Edward. "I..." Susan opened her mouth, ready to retaliate. Thankfully, William covered her mouth and trembled as he explained to Jessica, "Miss Morgan, she has gone insane, please forgive her rudeness..." Jessica snorted and ignored them then. Arguing with them at the banquet would only make her a laughingstock. After the banquet, she would deal with them! However, Susan was unhappy. She muttered, "Darling, she was just playing a joke on us, deliberately shining the spotlight on us." She shook William's arm, trying to coax him. "Shut up!" William couldn't help but shout angrily! He increasingly felt that Susan was a troublemaker. Even if he knew Jessica was playing with them, what could he do to resist? Nothing! The rules of this world are like this, big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat plankton... At this mom
Chapter 26
William felt very tired when he heard that Susan was still slandering Edward, He couldn't understand how he fell in love with such a stupid woman. Why did he hook up with her? However, if she wasn't an idiot, how could she be seduced by him with just sweet nothing? Jessica was sitting there quietly, but when she heard what Susan said, she suddenly stood up and stared at her. She looked at Susan with cold eyes and asked, "What did you just say?" Susan didn't hesitate and answered immediately, "Edward is..." Snap! A loud slap sounded. Before Susan could finish her words, Jessica slapped her directly in her right cheek. Her cheek turned red instantly, and the clear slap marks were even more eye-catching. "Bitch! You don't deserve to judge Edward!" Jessica spoke harshly.. Susan covered her face, feeling aggrieved and angry. She looked at William hurriedly and said angrily, "Honey, she hit me, please avenge me quickly." "Damn you bitch!" However, William raised his hand and s
Chapter 27
Hearing this, Mayor George looked a little annoyed. He had emphasized many times that the recent physical examination report proved that he was very healthy, but Jessica and the veterinarian seemed to be sure that he was suffering from a serious disease, and Jessica even threatened that he would beg that lowly man for help. How ridiculous! In fact, the reason why he distressed Edward so much was not only because he looked down upon Edward's social position, but also for a personal reason. That was because of his nephew Bob, who had pursued Jessica for many years, but she had rejected him many times. However, Jessica suddenly defended that ordinary man who had accomplished nothing, and he had even once married and dumped. So he snorted unhappily, "Bob is absolutely more outstanding than that guy!" Jessica chuckled and said, "Uncle George, if compared with the best young people in the capital, Edward may lose temporarily, but compared with Bob, Edward will definitely win!" Her

15 minutes ago, a black Bentley just drove out of the estate. "Hmph, Jessica believes in a bankrupt vet, how ridiculous!" George lit a cigar on the car, his tone mocking. His driver said somewhat worriedly, "Sir, although that vet guy is insignificant, but offending the Morgan family is not a good choice." George waved his hand dismissively, saying indifferently, "I've informed Bob about this, he'll be here soon. Bob is much more outstanding than that guy, I believe he'll make the man back down soon." In George's view, Edward wasn't even worthy of polishing Bob's shoes. "Besides, Jessica doesn't represent the Morgan family!" George said meaningfully, taking a deep drag of smoke. Suddenly, he felt a stabbing pain in his body, though fleeting, it made him cough. And inhaling the cigar smoke only made it worse, causing him to cough uncontrollably, as if his lungs were about to explode. After a while, George, his face tear-streaked from coughing, looked very disheveled. He wip
Chapter 29
Upon hearing Edward's words, everyone was stunned. Mayor George hadn't expected Edward, such a despicable fellow, to dare refuse his order, and Jessica was also surprised that Edward, who had rarely shown anger, was now displaying such behavior. In her eyes, Edward had always been a gentle person, seldom getting angry. However, she was pleased with this change in him! "Scoundrel, what did you say?" George immediately became furious, and his driver, who also doubled as a part-time bodyguard, glared angrily at Edward, completely forgetting the fact that he had just been scared off by him, and sternly demanded, "Cure Mayor George immediately! Otherwise, I'll make you pay!" Edward raised his head slightly to look at the tall, muscular man in front of him, and in the next moment, he slapped him, sending him flying, several teeth even falling out in the process. The onlookers were not only shocked that Edward dared to directly offend the mayor but also astonished by his strength, cap
Chapter 30
George stood outside the villa, looking at the balcony on the second floor with a complex meaning in his eyes, without saying anything. After a moment, he said with a melancholy tone, "Let's go home!" He ignored the speculation of his driver, although he also had some doubts about Edward. But the ability Edward displayed today surpassed his imagination. He knew that no matter whether Edward staged this scene himself or not, he couldn't afford to offend Edward anymore. Because it seemed that Edward could not only save lives but also kill in invisible ways! "Sir, this bastard has offended you so much, we should teach him a lesson! For instance, we can secretly assist your nephew Bob," the driver suggested cunningly. George remained silent for a moment, then waved his hand and refused, "From now on, I will not interfere in the struggle between Edward and Bob." "Sir, but..." the driver was anxious to persuade him, as he still hoped to use the mayor's hand to avenge himself again
