Chapter 056 – “Who Exactly is that Young Man?”
*****For several seconds, only the low hum of the engine filled the vehicle.Jason's jaw locked so tightly it seemed capable of cracking a tooth, while his breathing became uneven. His thoughts were a complete mess.‘If even sir couldn't help...’ He didn't dare finish that thought.Without realizing it, his attention drifted from the road, and the steering wheel shifted slightly beneath his grip before he hurriedly corrected the vehicle again.Drawing in a long, shaky breath, he turned toward Nicholas once more, his gaze filled with desperate hope... the kind belonging to a son watching his father slip away day after day.Yet...There was still nothing.Nicholas remained reclined comfortably against his seat, looking as relaxed as someone out for an afternoon drive.His face revealed no surprise, concern, or excitement.If anything, he looked almost bored, making it impossible for Jason to tell whether the diagnosis sounded simple... or utterly hopeless.That unreadable calm tortured
Chapter 055 – Jason’s Concern
*****Inside the car, pin-drop silence currently enveloped the entire space, making the atmosphere unusually heavy and almost suffocating.The steady hum of the engine only emphasized the uncomfortable quiet.Jason sat stiffly behind the steering wheel, every muscle in his body drawn tight.His palms clung to the wheel, damp with sweat, while the back of his shirt had already become soaked.His heartbeat also refused to settle.‘What is Sir thinking now?’‘Is he still upset about what happened at the gate?’‘Did today's incident destroy the relationship I've been painstakingly building with him?’One anxious thought chased another without mercy.Every few seconds, he stole a cautious glance toward Nicholas, desperately hoping to find some clue on his face… anger, disappointment, annoyance, and anything at all.Yet there was nothing.Nicholas remained as relaxed as ever, leaning comfortably against his seat with an almost lazy expression, as though the humiliating confrontation at the
Chapter 054 – An Unforgettable Memory
*****From beginning to end, Nicholas's demeanor remained completely relaxed, as though everything unfolding around him had nothing whatsoever to do with him.The desperate cries, the terrified faces, the crushing atmosphere... none of it stirred even the slightest ripple in his expression.He merely gave a casual nod, and Jason immediately hurried toward the vehicle, respectfully taking the lead as though escorting someone of immeasurable status.Watching the pair walk away, every guard paled even more, all of them trembling all over, while Captain Johnson felt the last trace of strength drain from his body."Mas... Master!" he cried desperately.His voice cracked with panic, but neither Jason nor Nicholas slowed their footsteps.Seeing that he was being completely ignored, the captain's final shred of composure collapsed.Thud!He dropped heavily to his knees."Mercy, Master!" he wailed even louder, his voice filled with anguish. "I've learned my lesson! I swear I'll never judge any
Chapter 053 – The Captain and Guards’ Punishment
*****Jason silently thanked every god he could think of that he had kept his phone beside him the entire morning, checking it almost obsessively while waiting for Nicholas's message.Every few minutes, he had glanced at the screen, fearing he might somehow miss the notification by a single second.He thanked his lucky stars that he had seen the message the instant it arrived.More than that, he thanked fate that he hadn't hesitated even briefly, hadn't gone looking for his personal driver, and hadn't wasted precious time asking someone to prepare one of the luxury cars.Instead, he had bolted out of the villa, seized the first vehicle within sight, and driven toward the front gate like a man racing against death itself.Otherwise... Jason shuddered violently, refusing to let his imagination finish that dreadful thought.Ultimately, he drew a slow, steady breath, barely managing to suppress the fury boiling inside him."Please forgive me, sir," he said respectfully as he turned toward
Chapter 052 – Jason’s Fear
*****Jason was staring directly at the captain at this moment.However, gone was the respectful, apologetic man who had greeted Nicholas only moments ago.In his place stood someone whose gaze was so cold and sharp that it resembled a blade capable of carving straight through flesh and soul.Seeing this, Captain Johnson's heartbeat directly exploded inside his chest.'Did... did I say something wrong...?' he wondered.But just at that moment…“You...” Jason finally spoke, his voice carrying enough frost to freeze the air itself. His eyes never left the captain's face. “...you didn’t just call Sir a random riffraff... did you?”The captain. “_”He stared blankly for a second, unable to react. Then… he felt the blood in his veins turn to ice, his breathing becoming even more difficult.None of the surrounding guards dared utter a sound.Then...Jason's expression darkened completely, the last trace of restraint disappearing from his face.“You stupid fools!” he exploded, his roar crash
Chapter 051 – Disbelief
*****For several endless seconds after Jason addressed Nicholas, the only sounds remaining were the frantic heartbeats echoing inside everyone's chest.Every pair of eyes widened to their limits, their mouths slowly fell open, and their minds simply... stopped working.'Sir...?' That single word exploded inside every person's head like thunder. 'Master Jason... called him... sir?'The guards felt their scalps go numb, while Captain Johnson's knees nearly buckled beneath him.All of them couldn’t believe their ears.No.They found it difficult to believe; after all, who was Jason Hunter?He was the CEO of Stellar Group, one of the most influential corporations in Ironstone City.Rumor had it that the company possessed terrifying connections reaching all the way into the Imperial Capital.On top of that, Jason himself belonged to the mighty Hunter Family… an A-rank household whose influence stretched far beyond Ironstone City.Countless business tycoons treated him with utmost respect,
