Chapter 738 – Is That… Master Xavier
*****The remaining calm people in the midst of this storm were none other than Xavier and Grace.Right now, the couple stood unmoving, appearing like statues, their expression not changing even a bit.Xavier still wore his familiar, maddeningly casual smile, acting as if the world and its noise couldn’t reach him. Grace, by contrast, wore the look of cold detachment, her face sculpted into aloof indifference.But her eyes betrayed her.Anyone who looked deep enough would catch the flicker of anxiousness and restlessness swimming under that frosted surface right now.She also knew the legends of the Myron family and their meteoric rise to the upper ranks without leaning on the first-rank houses.To meet them in person could mean doors opening for her and her company that she had only dreamed of. The thought alone quickened her pulse.But after everything that had happened tonight… the mockery, the insults, and the scorn, Grace no longer dared
Chapter 737 – Julius’s Anticipation
*****Only about four people in the entire hall remained composed at this moment.The first was Julius, who was seated calmly in the third section, his sharp eyes fixed not on the chaotic nobles, but on one man… Xavier.Unlike the rest, Xavier hadn’t flinched.He uttered a word, fidgeted, or so much as shifted in his chair.The only reaction Julius had caught on his face was a subtle lift of Xavier’s brow at the initial announcement of the Myrons’ arrival, and after that… nothing.He had stood there lazily since his arrival, his posture relaxed, and his expression unreadable.It was the look of someone utterly unconcerned, as if everything, even the news of the Myrons’ arrival, were no more important than hearing a servant announce dinner was ready.And that baffling calm sent Julius’s blood rushing with excitement.He continued studying Xavier’s every line and every twitch… or rather, the complete lack of them.He searched desperate
Chapter 736 – The Commotion In The Hall
*****Only after the father and son’s footsteps faded away did the rest of the hall finally return to life.Yet no one commented on what they had just witnessed… that the Scoan father and son duo, who had left their guests unattended for over an hour, had suddenly dropped everything to go grovel at a guest like overeager butlers.No one mentioned the hypocrisy.They didn’t even seem to notice. It was as though getting looked down upon was normal.Not only that.The difference between the way they had treated Xavier and Grace compared to the Myron family was staggering… like night and day.But did anyone care? Not even slightly.Instead…“Damn! The Myron family really came?” an E-rank elder burst out, his voice ringing with pure, unhidden envy. “They only sent a representative when I broke through to the E-rank!”“Aish! I thought they wouldn’t bother showing up! We could’ve used that to crush and bully the Scoan family!”“The Myron family here, in person… This is insane. I n
Chapter 735 – Lucius Scheme
*****For a moment that felt like an eternity after the announcement dropped, the grand hall was enveloped in a silence so absolute that it could have suffocated a heartbeat.It was so intense that a single pin falling to the ground right now would not just echo, but it would explode in the hall like thunder, shaking every bone to the core and making everyone flinch in fright.From the first section of the hall to the third, every face has the same expression… wide eyes, dropped jaws, and bodies frozen in place.It was as though the entire hall had just been told the world was ending in ten minutes, and the countdown had already started.No matter who they were and what their background was, every last one of them froze solid, their earlier chatter and sneering forgotten.Even Sarah, whose elation had only just shot straight through the roof, at the sort of unexpected humiliation Xavier and Grace were about to receive, felt her malice disappearing, completely overtaken by shock.
Chapter 734 – The Myron Family Is Here
*****'If master was calm now, it could only mean one thing... he was setting up for another devastating reversal and hard face smack.'With this thought in his mind, Julius, despite the inferno raging inside him, forced himself to stay seated.His muscles twitched with the effort, his teeth nearly cracked from being clenched so tightly.Yet he endured, desperate to witness once again how Xavier would turn humiliation into triumph. Maybe he could even learn from it and store it away like a secret technique to use in the future.And then, there was Lucius.While Julius trembled with fury, Lucius was practically glowing with glee.His grin stretched from ear to ear, smug and unrestrained as he stood beside his father. His eyes shone brightly, alight with excitement as he savored every cruel word that battered Grace and Xavier.He had intended to orchestrate this humiliation himself, but fortune had handed him a gift. The mob had done half his work for him, and it was so deliciou
Chapter 733 – Julius’s Rage
*****Sarah’s performance was so convincing that many in the hall instantly pitied her, seeing her as a delicate, innocent woman who had once been ensnared by a wolf in sheep’s clothing.“It’s okay, sis,” a woman in the first section shouted, her voice harsh, eager to join in the mob.Then she sneered and jabbed her finger toward another target. “At least you had the courage to dump him once you learned what he truly was! Not like some so-called cold goddess here, who always struts around as emitting coldness and indifference, as if she’s untouchable, constantly looking down on everyone, only to cling to an ex-convict in the end!”Her words sliced through the air like a whip, causing all eyes to follow her finger. It was pointed at Grace.In the next second, disgust and disbelief ignited in their eyes. It was as if the fragile halo Grace had usually worn had now been torn away and replaced with jagged, gleaming horns.“All the strong, powerful, wealthy men in this city have cour
