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,
615-About Diana
Beatrice did not hesitate. She went straight to the Edric family residence. Abraham was sitting in his study, staring at an old painting on the wall. His eyes were empty, lost in thought, as if he had sunk into the past. Jack sat nearby, carefully brewing tea. "Uncle, you must not go to the exhibition tonight," Beatrice said in a panic. "Royo Biz said someone wants to kill you. And he didn’t look like he was joking." "Jack, is the tea ready? Why is it taking so long? I want Beatrice to try it," said Abraham, ignoring Beatrice’s warning. He kept his eyes on the painting. Beatrice grew even more anxious. "Yes, Sir." Jack poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of Beatrice. "Miss Beatrice, please." But Beatrice had no intention of drinking tea. She was too restless. "This is Dixon’s favorite tea," Abraham said softly. Those words made Beatrice pause. She stared at the steaming cup, her heart pounding. Slowly, she lifted it and took a small sip. "This is so bitter," she said.
614-See You...
"How dare you hit me!" Royo froze, barely able to process what had just happened. He truly hadn’t expected Dixon to strike him without any warning. "Do I need to wait for the right time to hit you?" Dixon replied calmly. "For some reason, I just can’t stand your arrogance and attitude." "Why you..." Royo was furious. "I don’t care who Abraham is, or who wants to kill him," Dixon continued, completely unfazed by Royo’s anger. "Whether he lives or dies has nothing to do with me. And who do you think you are?" Dixon’s pride made Royo boil with rage. His face flushed as he held back his emotions. He wanted to fight back, but deep down he knew he was no match for Dixon. Based on the information he had, even Nouh and the strongest fighters from his family had been defeated by Dixon. It was said that Dixon could bring him down with just a finger. That slap… it wasn’t just painful. It was humiliating. Royo wanted to retaliate so badly, but Dixon’s cold glare froze him in place.
613-Slapped Another Guy
Beatrice frowned slightly. A trace of worry flashed across her face. She glanced at Dixon as if to warn him — stay alert, but don’t overreact. Still, the man had already stepped forward. "Beatrice, you're here too? It's been a long time." "Yes, it's been a long time, Royo Biz." Beatrice deliberately said his full name. Dixon immediately understood — it was a warning. Royo Biz. Of course, he was from the Biz family. Dixon’s eyes narrowed as he recalled Andreas’ last words. "His Excellency… perhaps someone from the Biz family." That’s what Andreas had said. Dixon kept his face calm as he looked at the well-built man approaching with confident strides. "Do I know you?" Dixon asked flatly. "Oh, Mr. Dixon Edric, you hold such a high position, it's only natural that you wouldn’t know someone like me." Royo stepped closer and extended a hand. But Dixon said nothing, he didn’t shake it. Royo smiled, pulling his hand back without a hint of embarrassment. "Beatrice alrea
612-Someone Called Dixon
“And what did you find?” Edo asked with a sneer. “Matty said no,” Yonus replied with frustration. “In that case, we should just take everything by force!” Edo let out a long sigh. His face now twisted in anger. “If you actually got something useful out of this, you wouldn’t reek like that, would you? You’re a disgrace! The Sazz family has been humiliated because of you!” Yonus said nothing. He knew he could no longer lie. His face burned red with shame. “I just wanted to prove that I’m worthy of becoming the next head of the family,” he said with a shaky voice. “I underestimated him,” he continued, clenching his fists. “I’ll fix this. Besides, that man named Dixon isn’t from the Edric family. That means we can go after him without worrying about consequences!” “You fool!” Edo shouted. “I spent a fortune on your education overseas. And this is what you’ve learned?” “It would’ve been so much easier if Dixon really was part of the Edric family,” Yonus muttered, filled with frustra
611-Yonus and Edo
"Young Master Yonus, Mr. Edo Sazz has requested your presence," said the butler politely at Yonus’ door. "Alright," Yonus replied. He had planned to speak with Edo Sazz himself. His original goal was to resolve this issue first before reporting anything to Edo. So as soon as he returned, he went straight to the Edric family residence. What he didn’t expect was not only his failure to settle the matter, but also how completely humiliated he was by Dixon. Edo’s taste in art was very different from Abraham’s. The decorations sparkled with gemstones and precious metals. You didn’t have to be an expert to know that the paintings hanging on the wall were extremely valuable, framed in gold and diamonds. It was a strange combination to pair such luxurious frames with traditional paintings, but Edo Sazz liked that style. "Father," said Yonus as he pushed the door open. Edo looked up. "What are you shouting for?" Edo snapped with a scowl. He wasn’t that old, but his hair had already tu
