No. 1 Consortium Billionaire Strikes Back

CH ~ 003 SON-IN-LAW

As the car drove across the highway at its fastest speed, Old Master Zane couldn't help but glare at the young man's unconscious and pale face.

Slowly, his eyes fell on the bracelet that caught his attention earlier.

Seeing the bracelet once again, Master Zane recognized it and was certain that this person wearing it wasn't an ordinary person. It was the same pair as the one worn by his own granddaughter.

He knows for a fact that no man on earth had this same piece. And this young man was definitely the same person who had worn that ever since he was a kid.

“Is this the highest you can go, Tom?!” Master Zane raised his voice at his driver as he looked down at the young man with a worried look.

“This is the fastest speed, Master.” He stuttered. If he goes beyond this, they are all going to die.

“Well, go faster before he dies on us!” He tells him. They better get back to his family’s estate on time for his treatment before something unexpected happens.

The Zane family was extremely wealthy, powerful and possessed top-of-the-line medical equipment all across the world. The young man would definitely get the faster and safest treatment there.

As they were speeding to the estate, Sixt's body began to heat up, despite being unconscious and his eyes still closed.

Master Zane noticed a shift in the young man's thumb… but didn't think deep into it.

His focus was more on getting home fastest to get him treated.

Though Sixt was still unconscious and soaked in his blood, his wounds were mysteriously healing at an astonishing rate but his skin was very much still pale and not unusual. So it was unnoticed.

Soon, their car drives past their gate, arriving at the estate at great speed.

“Take him in! Fast! - Prepare the medical facilities! Now! He needs urgent care!”

The old man urgently ordered the many servants, who rushed to the car to help the young man out of it, so he could be taken for treatment. However, at that moment, they discovered that the young man had no wounds at all.

Seeing this, Master Zane was greatly astonished that his mouth was left widened in disbelief. That- that was impossible… The young man was just in a pool of his own blood!

Slowly, he thought of his friend Harold Guidotti from many years ago. Harold, a man shrouded in mystery, possessing a variety of extraordinary abilities; had effortlessly cured his incurable illness. One he lost all hope of getting cured.

This enigmatic man seemed never to age. In gratitude for Harold’s life-saving help, Zane had promised to marry his granddaughter to Harold’s son and had given him a token—a bracelet.

Harold had disappeared for many years. But today, the young man he encountered, the one wearing the exact same bracelet, must be Harold’s son. He even appeared to have inherited his father’s miraculous abilities. After all, Zane had just seen him lying in a pool of blood, unconscious and almost dead, but now? He was completely unharmed and there was no trace of wound or scars left on his skin.

“What's your name, son?” The master stepped forward with a warm and pleasing smile.

He wasn't certain, but he just asked just to be sure.

“Sixt.. Sixt Guidotti, sir.” Sixt answered, his eyes scanning his surroundings with an uncertain expression.

Master Zane was satisfied after confirming that it was indeed the only Harold Guidotti’s son.

At that moment, the old man’s granddaughter, an elegant and beautiful woman, Sabrina Zane walked out the door, approaching her grandfather. She was wearing a designer dress that covered her chest up to her neck and arms. She wore a decent amount of make-up, with a black heel.

“Grandpa?”

The smile on her face faded away at the moment she noticed the poorly dressed man standing close to her grandfather.

Sabrina questioned, “Who is he?” She glared up at the young man.

Master Zane chuckled, turning to Sixt, who bit his lower lip as he scanned the beautiful woman's appearance.

Master Zane was about to tell her that he was the fiancé that he had arranged for his eldest granddaughter many years ago.

However, Sixt was taken here because he was clearly injured and in critical condition but now, he guessed he had to explain that first.

“Sabrina, this is Sixt Guidotti…” Then he goes ahead to reveal what happened, including how he met Sixt almost dead on his way home and his wound was miraculously healed before he was even treated by a doctor.

After hearing the whole story of how her grandfather had brought this Sixt fellow home, Sabrina couldn't help but scoff.

“What a great telenovela, grandpa.” She remarks, and Sixt could sense the sarcasm in her tone.

“Come in, son… come, come in…” Master Zane urged Sixt, and they both walked into his large and well furnished living room.

Sabrina rolled her eyes as she took her seat not too far from Master Zane. “In my opinion, I'll advise that you don't get involved with someone of such dubious origin.” Her tone was cold.

“What are you talking about?” Master Zane asked as Sixt was given a glass of water by the maids.

Sabrina shrugged, “It's obvious grandpa. Take a look at him. He has no wounds, or even a trace of scar on his body. He can't fool me. I bet he is simply trying to scam you.. to scam our family.” She slightly leaned forward, raising her head.

“Language, Sabrina. You don't know who he is.” Master Zane cautions his granddaughter.

“Oh, of course I know his type. And I have seen countless people like him. He's either a beggar… He is obviously dressed and looks like one…” She sneered, “...or he has some kind of ulterior motive.”

This fellow better call out his account details, so she could wire him some cash. She doesn't want rumours spreading that her family couldn't help a homeless poor beggar.

A frown became visible on Sixt's face.

Without warning, Master Zane slammed his palm on the table, startling the shit out of everyone, except Sixt.

“You better watch your tongue, young woman! You shouldn't dare use such a tone on him! Especially since he's my son-in-law. You are getting married to him immediately!”
