The crowd split open into two for Nolan. Nolan took unhurried steps as he walked forward, approaching the round table inside the private dining room.Kevin, Tyler, Emily, and the others were visibly shocked when they saw Nolan actually step forward. They'd thought that he'd continue hiding behind the crowd until it was over like a coward, and he'd tactically slip out of the crowd and make his grand escape without anyone realizing it. But for him to step forward so nonchalantly meant that he was either brave or extremely foolish. As they observed intently from the sidelines, hoping to find out which one Nolan was, Kevin felt like facepalming his face. He knew that Nolan was strong and proud, but Adrian was one of the underworld tyrants. He was strong and very merciless, Nolan was no match for this machine of mass destruction. Not to talk of the advantage he had for controlling a myriad of capable gangsters. What made Adrian Smith's forces so formidable was the terrifying strength wie

Nolan's words jolted everyone out from their daze. They stared at him with deep curiosity, as if they hadn't figured out anything about him just yet.Kevin, Jessica, Tyler, Emily, Linda, and the others were visibly shocked by Nolan's sudden announcement. It felt as if he knew the people that were approaching the private room.Adrian Smith was taken aback momentarily. However, he snapped out of his brief state of daze and turned towards his men, “Prepare to fight. Don't hold anything back.”At that exact moment, the door to the private dining room swung open. A group of men numbering at least a hundred of them stood at the other side of the vermillion door.The men were sporting black formal suits, a pair of black shoes, black gloves concealing their hands, and black sunglasses. These men emanated a strange oppressing aura that made everything around them tremble out of dread.Everyone inside the private dining room with the exception of Nolan himself, were visibly trembling from mere

Adrian Smith's eyes widened in shock, he couldn't hide his bewilderment as he looked at Nolan with an expression of profound horror. “B-but how…? You're just a mere pauper who got extremely lucky and was hired by the Lee family to serve as a bodyguard to their young lady.” Adrian Smith stuttered in disbelief and bewilderment.“I am guessing that's what Tyler Stone told you, right?” Nolan inquired indifferently with a nonchalant demeanor and a calm and composed look etched deeply on his face.“Y-you? How did you find out?”Adrian's shock intensified as he heard what Nolan had just said. He was scared that Nolan would want to take revenge on him for scheming with Tyler Stone to beat him up.“Look. It wasn't me. It was Tyler who planned it. He said he wanted me to rough you up a little bit so that you'd learn your lesson. He did all of this in order to impress some lady. I was only trying to repay a favour I owed him in the past…” Adrian Smith trembled involuntarily as he started recoun

As the footsteps drew closer and louder, a silhouette of a woman appeared from the entrance of the living room. She was sporting a red long flowing dress, red heels, and a red purse adorned with sparkling gemstones.She'd a long black hair cascading down her back. Thin brows, oval shaped face, fair and smooth skin, juicy red lips and a pair of thin long legs… This rose her beautiful percent to about ninety-six.The beautiful lady had a slight resemblance to Jessica. However, she looked a little younger.This was Jessica's sister, Stacey Lee. They were one year apart, but it was hard to tell. They both looked extremely beautiful, however Jessica was a notch ahead of Stacey.Stacey majestically cat-walked towards Jessica direction. Stopping in front of Jessica, Stacey smiled pleasantly, revealing a smile that was as stunning as the moon.“Hey, sis. I've missed you so much. You haven't aged much at all.” Stacey said with a melodious voice. She didn't realize that Nolan was standing besid

Outside the Lee family's mansion, a luxurious car packed in front of the intricate gate.Sitting on the driver's seat of the luxurious car was a young man in his late twenties. He was sporting a brown long sleeved shirt and white pants. The man had blonde hair with black roots, and a pair of emerald green eyes.His shirt was buttoned halfway living two buttons as an exception. His frame chest was visible through the gap on his shirt. He adorned himself with an expensive gold necklace worn around his neck, a diamond wristwatch strapped around his wrist, and he also wore a few rings.A few steps away from the luxurious car, stood Stacey, Jessica, and Nolan.Stacey had a wide grin plastered on her face when she spotted her boyfriend's car, she felt so proud to have been able to bag such a wealthy and influential second generation rich heir and also the grandson of the Grayson family.On the other hand, Jessica feigned a smile as she tried so hard to force herself to appear cheerful and h
