The Incredible GoldMaster

Engagement Party

Sophia family is the richest in Atlanta, one of the most well known families in the entire city, and many people have tried and failed to connect with them.

Abigail and her parents Seeing Sophia in their presence now created an impression that their family was about to be known in the whole of Atlanta.

“Sophia, welcome to my house. I can’t believe you are here for my engagement party,” Abigail spoke with nervousness, grinning vigorously like a fool.

But to her surprise, Sophia didn’t even say a word to her. She walked past her to Henry, looking at him, and with a calm voice she said, “Please come with me.”

Everybody who had experienced this was stunned as to why Sophia had approached Henry instead of Abigail, who was the one celebrating her engagement.

What could make Sophia come to Abigail’s engagement party if not to congratulate her? This question left everyone clueless.

“Um, sorry, but are you sure you ain’t talking to the wrong person, because this man just stormed in here and we are about to chase him out of the mansion?”

Sophia’s mom tried to convince.

“I think you are here to see my daughter Abigail, right?” she added, after grinning like a fool.

“Abigail?” Sophia muttered in confusion, then spoke out.

“I don’t even know who Abigail is, or who the name implies to. I’m only here to meet this man I am talking to, so please, if you could all excuse me, I have urgent things to attend to.”

Sophia brushed off their thoughts, with a dismissive reply.

Abigail’s family was embarrassed by the scene that had just happened. People kept asking if Sophia had come to see Abigail, probably they might be friends or something, but the people were disappointed that Sophia came to see a man dressed in tattered clothes, looking like a madman.

Henry and Sophia walked to the Ferrari she had parked outside, and so they got in. They rode out of Abigail’s family house with the watchful eyes of people.

While driving, Henry shifted his gaze to Sophia, who was focused on driving.

“You said you don’t want to have anything to do with me. It looks like you can’t stay away from me after all.”

Henry smirked, pushing backwards onto the Ferrari soft seat.

Sophia fumed, before raging at Henry with a high voice. “You pervert, what do you see yourself as? You have no importance to me.”

“And yet, I’m in your car, having a sweet free ride, huh.”

Henry scoffed with a narrowed eyes before laughing.

Sophia gasped. She knew Henry had figured out why she had come looking for him. She didn’t want to play hard and went straight to the point.

“I need your help, and it’s a very serious one, or I will lose someone that’s precious to me.”

Sophia finally spoke out, her voice low and her tone changed and her facial futures looking sad.

It turns out that after Sophia learned that her grandfather was seriously ill, Sophia immediately thought of Henry—who had once casually cured her heart condition in just a few moves. Sophia believed Henry’s medical skills were extraordinary and wanted him to treat her grandfather.

As it happens, the earring Henry gave Sophia has a tracking function—not only can Henry see Sophia’s location, but Sophia can also track Henry in return.

Henry realizes he misunderstood her intentions and gives an awkward, sheepish smile. He thought she must have loved the sex they had and wanted more from him.

But the next second, a loud crash sounded in front of the car, making Sophia match on the brake pad of her car, and so the car stopped. Sophia tried starting the car, but it wasn’t coming on. She was dazed as to what had happened. And just immediately, four cars came stopping just in front of Sophia’s car, and a bunch of men trooped out of the car, fully armed with guns.

Sophia flinched, seeing all these men.

The attackers are henchmen sent by Sophia’s old enemy—Thomas, a ruthless villain that had been plotting to kidnap Sophia for a long time. Thomas somehow learned that Sophia went out without bodyguards, and Thomas saw the chance to strike in kidnapping her. What he didn’t expect was that Henry would be together with Sophia.

Henry shifted his gaze to Sophia and with a calm assuring smile he said, “Stay here. I will be back.”

“Those men have guns, they might kill you if you do anything foolish. Where are you going? Stay here with me. I’m already placing a call for the police to come to our aid.”

Sophia panicked, fearing that Henry could get hurt. He wasn’t with a weapon or anything to defend himself.

Henry sneered, refusing to utter any words, then stepped out of the car.

“What is this fool doing? Don't make me laugh, are you trying to fight the bunch of us? We are more than twenty in total. We are fully armed, you have no chance against us.”

One of the men, the one leading the henchmen, warned with a sneer.

“We are here for the lady. Walk away, and we won’t hurt you.”

He added, his face scowled in anger.

“The lady, she’s with me, and she’s going nowhere,” Henry replied, then began walking forward.

“This man thinks I am joking with my warnings. Hey Mr or whoever you are, you are going to die anyways.”

the leader of the squad sneered, then stepped forward, his fist clenched.

The man went close to Henry, then threw a punch, but just in a split second, Henry skillfully dodged from the blow, then broke the man’s leg, grabbed his hands, and broke them as well. The man begged for mercy, but Henry, infuriated, broke his second leg, leaving the man screaming in pain.

The rest of the men shot towards Henry in reaction, but Henry beat the whole of them, and the few that were able to survive got to the car they had come with and fled.

Sophia was left stunned after witnessing what had just happened.

Her eyes widened in disbelief then suddenly caught up to the injury Henry had gotten from the fight. Blood gushed from the side of his shoulders after taking a hit from one of the bullets he tried to avoid.

Henry got back to the car as promised, opened the door then pulled Sophia out.

“Who are you? Are you some sort of an extraordinary human being or what?” Sophia asked, her eyes filled with disbelief, curiosity already taking hold of her.

“No, I am a retired soldier, who is well trained, that's how I could defeat them,” Henry replied teasingly, avoiding answering the question from Sophia.
