Flashing a manful grin, Sawyer peered into her eyes and his fingers spiritedly wrapped around her tapered waist, as if he was asserting in front of her family members that Sasha was his woman.
“Y-You!” Sasha nearly froze in shock.
She couldn’t believe that it was Sawyer standing next to her.
She had definitely pushed him out through the window and even closed it.
So, how did he climb back up to the first floor?
Sasha couldn’t get her head around what just happened.
On top of it, her family members who were already pissed off at her, now had gazes glowing like burning stoves.
“T-They will eat you alive,” Sasha uttered in a low voice. “Why did you come back? Do you not value your life? Do you think your recklessness will bring you out of your poorness?”
“I have three major goals, miss,” Sawyer responded in a similar wavelength. “The first is to find a cure for my sister’s complicated condition. The second is to marry a woman who can help mankind. The third is… to bring peace to this world before my kids are born.”
The first sentence made sense to Sasha as it was expected to come out of a poor man’s mouth, but the next two sentences sounded more like a fantasy than a dream.
Either way, she was in a spot now. She could care less about a nobody’s dreams.
“Don’t tell them you’re poor,” Sasha whispered as she came a step down the stairs. “Tell them you’re a vice president of a bank. You earn about 150K per year. It’s not much, but it’s better than revealing your real revenue.”
“I don’t want to lie, though.”
“If you don’t lie, you will die.”
“But one lie begets another.”
“Just shut up. You won’t be seeing me or my family after this breakfast, so just lie your way through if you want to live!” she scolded him in a low voice.
If only her family members weren’t watching, Sasha would have surely taught this prick his place for touching her without her permission!
“He’s taking advantage of me, Sasha Deville, whom many powerful men sought favor from,” Sasha also couldn’t wait to teach this philanderer a lesson.
Sasha could see her father, David Deville, giving her an unblinking stare, not even bothering to eat the food on the plate.
It was even more the case for Sasha’s mother, Maria, and the same could be said for the other ten family members sitting at the table.
Their rigid, odious expressions gave away their inner feelings.
“With what face did you come to eat?” Maria questioned her daughter in a sharp tone. “How could you bring a stranger into your room? You think this house is a brothel?”
“M-Mom…” Sasha frowned and couldn’t respond. She looked like a squirrel with an acorn stuck in her throat.
Sawyer, however, pulled a chair back and gestured Sasha to sit, surprising everyone.
What was with this guy?
How could he be calm when the air was so tense and nerve-wracking for her?
After Sasha hesitantly sat down, he sat right next to her.
“Shameless. Utterly shameless,” Maria openly cussed, her long sparkling earrings waving to and fro. “If you stick with trash, you’ll become trash, too, Sasha.”
“He looks like he’s in late twenties or early thirties, maybe?” Sasha’s sister, Noelle, said. She had stylish bangs for haircut. “I didn’t know that you liked older men, Sis.”
Sasha wanted to tell her younger sibling to shut up, but she couldn’t do so in this nervy atmosphere.
“How old are you, dear?” Sawyer looked at Sasha.
(Dear? This guy…!) Sasha didn’t want to answer, but she forced out a smile and said, “23.”
“Oh, I’m 32,” he replied.
“Nine years of difference?” Noelle scoffed. “That’s a little too much, I think. And he’s wearing a T-shirt. Who wears T-shirts on dates? He must be piss-poor, though he seems to be a fan of the Empyrean just like me.”
“No one asked for your opinion,” David coldly glanced at Noelle, making her shut up. His gaze then shifted to Sawyer. “You… instead of apologizing to us first, you sat down at our table and started eating and talking brazenly. You have no manners or decency. Someone like you can never become my son-in-law. If I ever see you with Sasha again, I will erase you from this world.”
Sasha expected her father to threaten like this. She thought this would make Sawyer sweat.
Sawyer remembered the words Sasha spoke last night while in her drunken stupor.
She told him how her family members were all selfish, and that her parents only started treating her well after she began earning a good salary, and how her family members used her salary for their daily needs, making it quite hard to save money.
Now, they were also trying to get her married to a rich guy so they could use her to pave their own future.
“I want to marry your daughter,” Sawyer said, holding Sasha’s hand in front of everyone as he thought this would be the best route instead of arguing with them.
Maria and some others ended up coughing out the food that was in their mouths.
Even David coughed hard and had to sip some water.
“You want to marry my daughter and enter the great Deville family?” Maria growled. “How preposterous!”
“Being nice-looking isn’t enough. Even male prostitutes look handsome. If you want money, tell me how much you want,” David uttered, his voice somewhat quivering in rage. “I’ll sign the check right away and throw it in your face.”
“Dad,” Darius, the elder brother of Sasha, voiced his mind in worry, “what if he asks for an absurd amount?”
“Pfft, brother,” Noelle laughed, “I doubt this guy even knows the difference between a million and a billion.”
“Oh, I think I do know the difference,” Sawyer innocently replied. “Your face looks like a million dollars, but Sasha’s face looks like a billion dollars. Am I right?”
Noelle’s face turned ashen. “Y-You…” she quickly looked at her mother. “Mom, call Big Dog and get this clown kicked out!”
Sasha was startled because she had seen Big Dog choke a tiger to death with an elbow lock just because it growled at Maria once from behind the fence.
At this rate, Sawyer might really get killed.

CHAPTER 86
Maria got so emotional she nearly dropped the mobile.“A-Are you telling the truth?” Maria asked. “This isn’t some prank call, right?”“Our CEO, Emily Walker, is probably already on her way to your home, ma’am,” the voice on the other side of the call replied. “Please do greet her well as your family is also going to be shown on the television.”Maria was thrilled to hear that.The call ended, and Maria started yelling YES!“What happened?” David asked. “Did you win a lottery or something?”“No. It’s bigger than the lottery!” Maria excitedly yelled. “Our family won the best customer of the year award for the Goldblood perfume company!”“Oh…:” David had expected so much, so he was a little disappointed that it was just an award.Sasha, however, had a faint glow in her eyes.She took out her mobile and checked online and then smiled. “Mom, do you know that the best consumer of the year is eligible to buy as many as thirty percent shares of the Goldblood company?”“What?” Maria was pleas
CHAPTER 85
The next morning.Sasha came downstairs and saw the new head butler, Big Wolf, beating up a few people.“Hey, what’s going on here?” Sasha cringed with disgust because the blood of those people was dirtying the carpet.“Good morning, ma’am,” Big Wolf saluted her first. “These contractors are responsible for constructing our shopping mall.”“Why are you beating them?”“The other night, the slight vibrations caused the half-built mall to collapse,” Big Wolf said, startling her.She checked the photos Big Wolf showed on the tablet.“Even the pillars have cracks in them?” Sasha frowned. “They used less cement and more sand, huh…”“Yes, ma’am,” Big Wolf showed another image. “I’ve calculated all their expenses and made a rough estimate. The real cost for the construction so far was approximately 32 million dollars, but they charged 49 million from the Deville family.”Sasha’s gaze turned piercing cold. “If the little earthquake didn’t happen, then this would have gone unnoticed. And the fi
CHAPTER 84
Later that night.Though the Deville family members prepared a grand dinner menu, Sawyer did not even come out of his room after bathing.When they sent a butler, Sawyer told him he was feeling too tired, and he just wanted to sleep.So, there was nothing Maria could do other than throw most of the food outside.After dinner, Maria told Sasha to try and enter his room that night, but Sasha politely refused.“He said we can date, so there’s no need to force anything now, Mom,” Sasha tried to reason with her.“Date? Haven’t you both already done that?” Maria asked. “So why do you want to date again? You should straight away move to fixing the engagement date.”“Mom, don’t push me with this, okay?” Sasha’s eyes turned sharp.Her mother had tried to force her to marry Ashton until a day ago, but now, she completely flipped the script and began forcing her to marry Sawyer instead.“How am I pushing?” Maria quickly retorted. “I’m only telling you to wed your lover.”“On the first day you me
CHAPTER 83
After entering the mansion, Sawyer sat down on the couch.“Do you want me to call Sasha?” Maria asked him after ordering the maids to prepare the bath for him.“No need,” Sawyer was staring at the television which was showing a cartoon program where humans were fighting the famous monsters of the current times.Coincidentally or not, Zombieman was also there in the show.“Mom, do you know who took care of Zombieman?” Noelle asked.“Of course, it’s the Empyrean,” Maria replied quickly. “Everyone knows that. All the criminals were taken care of by him.”“Not all the criminals, Mom,” Noelle smiled and looked at Sawyer. “It was Sir Sawyer that took care of Zombieman.”Maria blinked a few times. “What?”David’s eyes enlarged very much. Zombieman was a worldwide infamous criminal with strength that could destroy a city. He was considered a potential threat to humanity itself. So, how could such a monstrous criminal lose against Sawyer?David didn’t believe it even for a second.He thought t
CHAPTER 82
Sasha’s nervousness wasn’t unfounded.Considering the past, Sawyer must be here for only one reason. To get his payback.But how could her own mother, Maria, not see that? She was just that blinded by the possibility of establishing a positive association with someone socially superior.Sasha, however, was not daydreaming. She was very much aware of her own position right now, given how snobbish she had also acted on the morning she had found Sawyer in her bed.She had branded him poor and judged him by his clothes and the lack of any lingering perfume on his body.All the signs that day pointed out that Sawyer was poor and was likely after Sasha’s wealth.So, Sasha did what she believed was necessary.In hindsight, she believed that she was a little bit harsh that morning, probably because she was not able to control her emotions well after seeing a man in her bed. He was charming, yeah, but he was still a stranger.Now that stranger became a phenomenon in just twenty four hours.Saw
CHAPTER 81
Until evening, Sawyer visited many places around the city and didn’t just write checks for those who were in need. He also offered them advice and hope.Many people asked him which city he belonged to, but Sawyer told them that he’s a human, and that’s all that mattered.Even though he did not reveal the name of the city he was born in, Mayor Benedict and many others believed that he was likely a person from Jewel city.After all, only that city was known to have immense wealth because it was a place full of powerful supersoldiers. Most of the world-famous supersoldiers came out of that city.Now, Sawyer was making a name for himself.The news agencies, the celebrities, and even the big businessmen from all around the Summit city wanted to meet him.However, none of them had Sawyer’s contact number.So, they all tried to contact those who were next to Sawyer.This included the mayor, Noelle, and also David.Even Maria and Sasha were also getting calls because David was on the truck th
