2024-07-04 12:18:51The door opened and a man walked in.
William and his wife couldn't bear to look at him. They knew that Steven would definitely choose the worst man to be Diana's husband. But, Diane turned to look. She wanted to see who would be her husband. Dixon looked into Diana's eyes. He walked right across the hall and everyone was staring at him. Steven smiled condescendingly and said, "Dixon, congratulations! You're going to be husband of one of the Hamilton family's grandchildren!" Steven added, "You don't have to thank us, we just hope you'll take good care of Diana." Steven walked over to Diana and gently took her hand, "Come, Diana." He took Diana's hand and brought her in front of Dixon, then placed his hand in Dixon's hand. All the guests started clapping again when they saw this, as if they were attending a happy wedding ceremony. But, William and his wife knew that everyone was just laughing at them! Tomorrow, all the people in Reddof would know that a useless man had married Diana Hamilton, and it would become a hot topic. After this wedding ceremony ended, Yoruna immediately left in tears, while William quickly rolled his wheelchair after his wife. At the entrance of the hotel, a cold wind blew on Diana's face and she came to her senses. She looked up at Dixon who stood beside her. Her face was expressionless, but her voice was hoarse. "I don't blame you. You should be pitied too." Dixon didn't say anything. The person in front of him was the little girl from fifteen years ago. She was still as nice as ever. She tolerated this situation and suffered this kind of bullying just so that her parents could live happily. "Hi, my dear cousin, congratulations!" Suddenly a man walked out of the entrance and smiled condescendingly at Diana, "Congratulations on getting such a wonderful husband!" He deliberately emphasized the word 'wonderful', and said it with great sarcasm. Diana frowned and bit her lip. She looked at Sonny Hamilton with annoyance. "My dad and my family worked hard for your wedding," Sonny sighed as he said. "Now, you have found a husband, we can rest easy." Sonny glanced at Dixon. Sonny knew that Dixon was found by Steven, who was his father. And he knew how low Dixon's background was. "For you, Diana's husband. Now, you're married to the granddaughter of the Hamilton family, you'd better be nice to us here." Sonny continued happily. "Have a baby soon, okay? That will make Grandpa happy too." "No matter what your baby looks like, or even if you give birth to a deformed baby, the Hamilton family can still afford to raise that baby." Sonny said contemptuously. "Sonny, are you done bullying me!?" Diana was annoyed. "Diana, I'm just giving you congratulations on getting married," Sonny said with a condescending smile. "Grandpa also said that he hopes you will have a baby soon. I think you're going to make love and produce a baby tonight! And if you actually have an idiot kid, it'll be even funnier. Haha!" "Sonny!" Diana raised one hand to slap Sonny. Diana bit her lip, and reluctantly lowered her hand. If she dared to hit the eldest grandson of the Hamilton Family, then tomorrow her family would be evicted. "What? Do you want to slap me?" Sonny teased Diana. He was even happier when he saw Diana lower her hand. Sonny deliberately sighed loudly, "Your father has been paralyzed for many years, and your family would have starved to death long ago if the Hamilton Family hadn't supported you. Now, we have gone to great lengths to find you a husband, but you are not only ungrateful but you also want to slap me. If Grandpa finds out you tried to slap me, then the consequences..." Diana began to tremble. She looked at Sonny very angrily. She turned to leave, but Sonny blocked her way again. "Diana, this is Grandpa's decision. If you're not happy, tell him." Diana started crying because she was so angry at Sonny. "What do you want to do?" Dixon suddenly asked her. Diana raised her head and looked at Dixon, and said, "I want to slap him hard!" She had just finished speaking and there was a loud slapping sound. Sonny held his face as he fell to the floor. He screamed when he felt a burning sensation from his face. "Aaa! It hurts so much!" It was Dixon who had slapped Sonny!

621-Don't Call Me Uncle!
Meanwhile, The atmosphere slowly calmed down as dozens of security guards flooded the scene. "Call an ambulance! Hurry!" Edo shouted, his voice echoing. Yonus was still lying on the floor. Although he was no longer pinned down, the two arrows were still lodged in his legs. No one dared to pull them out, fearing it would worsen the bleeding. Abraham supported Yonus with one hand while pressing down on the wound with the other, trying to stop the steady flow of fresh blood. "Hold on a little longer. Once the doctor arrives, you will be fine," Abraham said, trying to reassure him. Yonus’s lips trembled. His face was pale, his eyes red and watery from the unbearable pain. Even so, he forced himself to speak. "Uncle... Abraham... th-thank you..." His voice was weak and broken. "Don’t talk anymore," Abraham shook his head firmly. "Stay strong. The ambulance will be here any second!" Yonus only gave a faint nod. In his mind, he vividly recalled how, at the brink of death, his own fa
620-Hey, Wake Up...
Yonus was still lying on the floor. The arrow had pierced through his thigh, pinning him down and making it impossible for him to move. His cries grew more gut-wrenching. Edo panicked and wanted to help, but he had no idea what to do. "Help! Somebody help!" Edo shouted desperately. Hearing his son's screams, Edo felt like his heart was about to leap out of his chest. Was this killer insane?! The target was supposed to be Abraham! Why was he attacking Yonus instead?! "Why are you still standing there?! Help him!" Edo was still frozen when Abraham rushed over, using all his strength to pull out the arrow. "Yonus, hang on! I will save you!" Abraham yelled as he snapped the arrow, his palms scraping badly in the process. Then, another arrow flew! Edo felt his soul nearly leave his body. The arrow shot straight toward Abraham, missing his heart by just inches and grazing his shoulder. Even Edo could not hold back his scream. "Watch out!" He never expected Abraham to ris
619-A Sniper
Earlier, Edo might still have had some doubts. But when he saw Abraham arrive alone, he became even more certain that the man was hoping Dixon would show up. “Ladies and gentlemen,” Royo stood on the stage, his voice loud and commanding. “I am truly pleased to welcome you all to tonight’s exhibition. It is a great honor to have you here!” “The companies invited here today are some of the most influential in the northern region. Their products have been well received in the market.” He continued confidently, “Tonight, I want all of us to interact, build connections, and create opportunities for collaboration. The goal is not only to strengthen the northern economy, but also to open more doors for everyone here.” A round of applause immediately filled the hall. “The exhibition is right behind me, with all the products on display. Please, take a look around, ask questions, and give feedback. I hope tonight marks the beginning of new partnerships that will bring prosperity to the nor
618-Dixon Wasn't Coming
"Royo, I remember you," Abraham replied casually with a slight smile. "Good... At such a young age, you've already accomplished a lot. Since you're hosting an event this big, of course I had to come to show my support." "Thank you for your support, Uncle Abraham Edric. The younger generation still needs guidance from seniors like you," Royo said with a smile, then gestured politely. "Please, come in and have a seat." Abraham nodded and walked in. To everyone’s surprise, even Jack was nowhere to be seen. "He must be insane!" some people whispered. Abraham came without his personal bodyguard. It was as if he either believed the assassination threat was just a rumor or was simply too confident in himself. Beatrice’s heart was pounding. She had no idea what Abraham was thinking. She had even gone to the Edric family estate to warn him to stay away from this exhibition if possible. Yet Abraham still came. Even worse, he came alone without Jack, his well-known, skilled bodygua
617-The Exhibition
Dixon was only holding his phone, chatting with Diana, and ignoring everyone else. Lokan went to get ready for the exhibition. There would be several influential figures at the event, including the heads of three powerful families. This was not just an ordinary exhibition. Hamilton Group was most likely included on the guest list only because of Dixon. The exhibition was hosted by the Biz family, with Royo as the main person in charge. The hall was grand, clearly showing that a powerful family was behind the event. This was not simply an event to attract investors and merchants. If that were the case, Abraham would not have been interested in showing up at all. Because the Biz family was hosting this exhibition, everyone who attended was expected to show respect. The entire Porto Mall had been prepared exclusively for the event. Staff members occasionally came by to make adjustments and ensure that everything would be perfect for the evening. The way powerful families orga
616-An Invitation
"Uncle Abraham, about tonight’s exhibition..." "The Biz family has never been this proactive before," Abraham replied with a light laugh. "If I reject their sincere invitation, I’ll only look rude. Whatever is going to happen, will happen. There’s no point in hiding from it. Besides, I’m not worried about street rumors like that." "But..." Beatrice still looked uneasy. The Biz family was hosting tonight’s exhibition, and it was Royo who had warned that Abraham’s life was in danger. On top of that, Dixon had slapped Royo in public. There was no way Roman would let that go so easily. Beatrice feared it was a trap. "No more ‘but,’ ....don’t worry," Abraham said with a warm smile. "Thank you for your concern, but there’s no need for you to worry about this. You should get back to work." "The Mopp family situation is already keeping you busy. Back when your father was still around, we weren’t that close. But if you ever need help, just ask me," he added. Jack escorted Beatrice out,
