Reddof City, At Airport.
Twenty men in black suits rushed out of the exit, each with a serious face as if they were about to fight a formidable enemy. They reached the sidewalk outside the airport. A young man of thirty was sitting on a long bench, slowly exhaling cigarette smoke from his mouth. He is Dixon Edric. "Young master Dixon, welcome." Edy respectfully spoke to Dixon as he stood about three steps behind him. "Mr. Abraham hopes you can come back, he misses you a lot." In front of others, Edy had a high standing as a leader, and no one dared to go against him. But in front of Dixon, he felt so low! Dixon turned slightly with a flat expression on his face. "Did he miss my power? Or my money?" If anyone else said something like that, Edy would hate it. How could the rich and powerful Edric family of Reddof City ever covet someone else's power and money? But the man in front of him is different. He is the sole heir of the Edric family! Thus, Edy must respect him. "When he kicked me out of the house and married that bitch, then I no longer belong to the Edric family." Dixon exhaled the last of his cigarette smoke, "Dixon now has nothing to do with the Edric family!" "Don't send anyone to look for me again. Otherwise, I will kill everyone you send!" Dixon said threateningly. His terrifying murderous aura was very visible. After saying that, Dixon left. Edy could only relax his clenched fist after he saw Dixon leave. There was a car ready in the airport parking lot. Dixon immediately got into the car and contacted someone, "Witan, have you arranged everything? Give me the address." Dixon quickly hung up the phone. He held a pink handkerchief and his mind drifted back to fifteen years ago. By the time he was fifteen, he was kicked out of his home and wandering the streets. He was cold and hungry when a little girl in simple clothes gave him a packet of bread and this handkerchief to wipe his sweat. After that he was taken away by a mysterious person. And when he first appeared, the whole world shook! Three years later, he was given the name, God of War of the East. He was only eighteen years old back then. Now twelve years had passed. He had the power of a god and could shock the world, but he chose to return quietly. He would never forget that little girl. He couldn't forget that kind face. Dixon put away the handkerchief carefully and took a deep breath. The car sped out of the parking lot. *** Meanwhile, at the Fairmont Hotel. The city's famous Hamilton family received a proposal from the best man to marry their granddaughter, and this attracted a lot of attention. Diana Hamilton sat in one of the function rooms, she was very nervous, her eyes were red from crying, and she felt completely oppressed. Yoruna Velto who was Diana's mother stood up, her face even redder with anger. "William, they're definitely no good! If you're still a man, go and reject your father's decision!" Yoruna screamed at her husband, "Are you willing to watch them destroy your daughter's happiness?" The Hamilton family started as a small shop, and within fifteen years, they had grown and become a third-tier wealthy family in Reddof. The head of the Hamilton family named Harry Hamilton became an example of a successful entrepreneur who started from zero. Harry Hamilton had three sons: Steven, Nico, and William. Steven has taken over most of the Hamilton family business, and Nico is responsible for expanding the business in different cities. But, William had lost both his legs in an accident, so he could only rest at home and be looked down upon. Steven and Nico have conspired to persuade their father to agree to find a husband for William's daughter, and they even guarantee to find a very good man for Diana. And in the end all the male candidates who would become Diana's husband did not have great qualifications. One of them was even older than Diana by ten years, and had a history of mental illness! This was not finding a good husband for Diana at all. This destroyed her! William also felt anger at this time. But, he didn't dare to go against his father's decision. He knew Harry's temper was very high and always made decisions that no one could interfere with. No one in the Hamilton family could oppose what Harry wanted to do. "He's Diana's grandfather, so he won't do anything bad to her." After thinking for so long, William embarrassedly took these words out of his mouth. Yoruna pointed her finger at William, and cried as she shouted, "I regret marrying a weak man like you!" Yoruna knew that William was a filial son and had always been very obedient to his father. After becoming disabled, he became even weaker and did not dare to go against his father at all. But Yoruna knew that this arranged marriage issue would still ruin Diana's future, and their family would be laughed at and humiliated. Yoruna sobbed as she yelled at William, and Diana cried softly, while William could only clutch his numb thigh, showing how much he blamed himself and how helpless he was in this situation. "Mom, don't yell at Dad anymore." Diana managed to put on a smile, but there were tear marks on her pretty face. Diana knew this was a tactic of her uncles. After graduating from university, she started working for the Hmailton Group and achieved great results within two years, even overtaking her uncles' children in terms of achievements with ease. They were worried that Diana would struggle to control their family business, so they instigated Harry to find a man willing to marry Diana. The goal was to prevent Diana from continuing her business career at the Hamilton Group. William felt bitterness and helplessness when he saw his daughter trembling slightly. He didn't dare to look at his wife's sullen face. He knew that it was difficult for them to live in the Hmailton family, but at least they didn't have to worry about their living expenses. If they refused this arranged marriage, they would be expelled. In the main hall of the hotel, the place was brightly lit and all the guests had arrived. Harry was sitting right at the front, wearing an exquisite suit, holding a cane and his face beaming. "Dad, it's time to make an announcement." Steven stood next to his father. Steven looked at Diana who wasn't sitting too far away, and announced in a loud voice, "We have the results here, and we have chosen a man who is most suitable for Diana." Harry stood up. Everyone looked at him as he spoke. "Today I would like to officially announce the man I have chosen for Diana, my granddaughter." Everyone applauded. But for Diana, this applause mocked her. Steven took out a beautifully designed business card and gave it to his father. The name of the man who would marry Diana was written on it. They had checked carefully. Diana's future husband did not have a great background, he is an orphan, over thirty years old, poorly educated, has no skills and is homeless. He is a useless man. And he even has a mental illness. So after this man marries Diana, Harry will cut off the Hamilton family business from Diana, even his children will not get a share of the Hamilton Family's property! Harry's eyes were nearsighted and couldn't see clearly, so he squinted his eyes and looked at the business card carefully before announcing, "This is Diana's future husband, his name is Dixon Edric!" The moment the name was announced, everyone turned their heads to look at the main door of the hotel.The door opened and a man walked in. William and his wife couldn't bear to look at him. They knew that Steven would definitely choose the worst man to be Diana's husband. But, Diane turned to look. She wanted to see who would be her husband. Dixon looked into Diana's eyes. He walked right across the hall and everyone was staring at him. Steven smiled condescendingly and said, "Dixon, congratulations! You're going to be husband of one of the Hamilton family's grandchildren!" Steven added, "You don't have to thank us, we just hope you'll take good care of Diana." Steven walked over to Diana and gently took her hand, "Come, Diana." He took Diana's hand and brought her in front of Dixon, then placed his hand in Dixon's hand. All the guests started clapping again when they saw this, as if they were attending a happy wedding ceremony. But, William and his wife knew that everyone was just laughing at them! Tomorrow, all the people in Reddof would know that a useless man had married
Diana was dumbfounded, in her heart she said, "Dixon dares to slap Sonny?" Diana's face immediately paled with fear. Because, Sonny will kill Dixon because of this! "Why did you obey what I wanted to do?" Diana asked Dixon with a panicked expression on her face. "It's because you're my wife now," Dixon replied casually. I'm just saying it as a form of emotion, not that you should slap him." Diana explained. Diana stared in shock at Dixon. She never expected Dixon to slap Sonny for her. Sonny immediately got up and punched Dixon. All this time, no one had dared to hit him, and even worse, the one who slapped him was Diana's husband: a useless man! His fist had just reached Dixon's chest, but Dixon used one hand to grab Sonny's fist. Dixon suddenly exerted force and the next thing Sonny felt was his wrist breaking! "Aaaa! This hurts!" Dixon whimpered in pain. "Diana is my wife. No one will bully her from now on." Dixon only let go of Sonny's hand after saying this, th
Meanwhile, Dixon went home with Diana. Diana was still dumbfounded all the way home. She never thought that Dixon would slap Sonny for her. When she snapped out of her reverie, she began to worry. Dixon's attack would definitely offend Sonny. They arrived at Diana's house. Diana pressed the doorbell, and after some time, William opened the door and looked at Diana with guilt-filled eyes. William looked at Dixon who was standing behind Diana. But, he didn't say anything and just nodded. "Let's go in." "Don't come in!" Dixon had not yet entered the house, but when Yoruna came in hastily, her face was still covered in tears. "Get out!" She shooed Dixon away. "Because of you, Diana will be humiliated and bullied in Reddof! You have ruined my daughter's good name! Get out now!" Yoruna cried as she shouted. She was not at all willing to let Dixon marry her daughter. If Dixon was a wonderful man who came from a wealthy family, Yoruna might have been able to accept it. But,
The next day. Sonny is very happy now. When he gets this project signed, then his position in the Hamilton family will rise to a higher level. He would be the next heir of the Hamilton family. His hand was still bandaged as he walked into the Moster Group office. He walked towards the reception, a look of arrogance on his face. "I'm looking for the CEO Moster to sign the contract." "Hello, do you have an appointment with the CEO?" asked a well-dressed woman. "I am the general manager of Hamilton Group, my name is Sonny Hamilton. We've been discussing this project with CEO Moster for a long time, and we'll be signing the contract today," Sonny replied. "I'm really sorry, CEO Moster won't see anyone without an appointment," The female receptionist smiled calmly. "I said, I'm the general manager of the Hamilton Group!" Sonny began to get annoyed. "I'm really sorry, I only know Miss Diana from the Hamilton Group. CEO Moster has given instructions to allow Miss Diana into
"Do you always think that everything you've achieved at Reddof over the past five years was given by me?" Witan suddenly asked. Paulo hurriedly replied, "Yes. If you hadn't made the effort to take care of me, I would still be a gangster roaming the streets and wouldn't be where I am today." "No. Think harder!" Witan continued. Paulo was speechless. He realized that this was not the right answer. Suddenly he swallowed and his voice began to tremble, "So...the correct answer is that I've been helped by your big boss all these years?" "Yeah." Witan continued, "He can give you everything. But, he can take everything you have. Do you understand what I mean?" Paulo replied immediately. "I understand. Thank you boss for your guidance, I will make sure to do well!" Witan said no more and hung up. Paulo felt his legs go weak, so he walked over to the sofa and sat down with a long sigh. Cold sweat poured down his forehead due to his nervousness. So, all this time the one behind
Dixon took a step forward and said calmly. "If you need to ask for a favor, you should ask nicely without being arrogant. Didn't your father teach you that?" "You!" Sonny was furious, but he didn't dare to retaliate. Because, his hand had already been broken by Dixon, he was afraid that Dixon would break his other hand. Stevan frowned. He didn't expect that the husband he found for Diana would actually dare to slap Sonny in front of him. "I haven't solved the previous problem with you!" Steven narrowed his eyes, and pointed at Dixon harshly. But, the moment he looked into Dixon's eyes, he felt like he had fallen thousands of feet into an abyss! It was as if he was looking at a horrible beast waiting to eat him with one bite! Dixon said calmly. "It seems that you're not just here to ask Diana to return to the company. Instead, you're here to make trouble." Steven was too lazy to talk to Dixon who he thought had a mental illness. "Diana, Hamilton Group needs you, you have to
Steven's face looked even worse. Did they really have to go back to William's house and beg for mercy? Before they were still haughty and didn't care about Diana and her family. If they went to beg her now, wouldn't that be very embarrassing? Steven couldn't bear the thought of humbling himself for this family! After thinking about it, Steven said, "You alone go to beg Diana, even if you have to kneel down to her, it's okay, do whatever it takes to make Diana want to sign this contract!" "Daddy, why should I?" "What? You expect me to do that?" Steven roared at his son, his eyes red. Steven wanted to save his pride. If word got out that he had to beg Diana, he would be so embarrassed. Sonny didn't dare speak up after his father spoke so loudly. He could only obey his father's orders, and he sadly went to Diana's house. *** At William's house. At this time, Diana and her family were having dinner. The table was not very big, everyone took one side of the table and at
An hour passed. Someone banged on the main door again. William checked it from the window, and he was suddenly frightened. "Steven is here!" Yoruna's face was pale, she was afraid that Steven would get furious here. Considering how bad Steven's temper was, Yoruna could already guess how they would be scolded and insulted. Even Diana looked nervous. She walked into the living room fearfully, as if there were a dozen gangsters carrying baseball bats behind that door. This whole family was behaving as if they were about to meet a formidable enemy! "Open the door." Dixon was using a towel to wipe his hair with a smile. Diana really didn't know what to do with Dixon's relaxed attitude. Was he really not afraid? Or did he just not care? Diana walked to the door and opened it. Steven stood there, and Sonny behind him. "Diana." Steven's face looked rather evil. But he could still force a smile. "Your uncle came here specifically to apologize to you." Diana was speechless.
