“This—how… how is this possible?” Everyone mumbled dazedly after staring in a trance for what felt like forever.

They continued gaping blankly at the red certificate in Xavier’s hand, hoping it wasn’t real, but the official stamp of the city’s marriage office boldly on it, only made it undeniable, as it was one of the most impossible to forge in Riverton City.

“You—you…” the Patriarch of the Sky family, Grace’s grandfather, who had maintained his calm thus far, even when Xavier interru

  • Chapter 1710 – Mistress Ayra’s Rank

    *****Several people smirked, already convinced that Mistress Ayra's stubbornness had sealed her fate.In their eyes, she had been offered an extraordinary opportunity and had foolishly thrown it away. Matthew could have protected her, raised her status, and given her access to a life she might never have achieved on her own. Instead, she had insisted on standing beside Xavier, an insignificant loser.What a waste.“She deserves whatever happens to her,” one man sneered. “The young master practically handed her a golden future, and she spat in his face. Now she can learn what happens when someone mistakes kindness for weakness.”“Exactly! She could have enjoyed a life of luxury, but she would rather follow that nobody to the grave. She has only herself to blame.”Another onlooker laughed contemptuously. “Perhaps she thought insulting the young master would make him fall in love with her. Some women really will do anything for attention.”Their comments grew increasingly vicious, each

  • Chapter 1709 – Matthew’s Promise

    *****The clamor grew louder, and every fresh compliment fed Matthew's vanity. He savored their admiration, his smile growing increasingly self-satisfied as he basked in the attention he had been desperate to command from the beginning.Having enjoyed the adoration long enough, Matthew finally remembered the woman standing opposite him.His gaze shifted toward Mistress Ayra, his smug grin widening.“Do you still want to die?” he asked playfully, as though he were offering her one last opportunity to correct a minor mistake rather than threatening her life.The crowd immediately turned to Mistress Ayra, and the admiration they had just lavished on Matthew quickly transformed into contempt for her.“What a lucky bitch! The young master is still willing to give her another chance!”“Hmph! She should be thanking every god she knows. If I were in her position, I wouldn't wait for him to ask me again. I'd throw myself at him before he changed his mind!”“Exactly! What more could a woman pos

  • Chapter 1708 – Matthew’s Rank

    *****“Bastard!” Mistress Ayra spat, her eyes blazing with fury. “Enough with your useless blabbering! If you want to fight, step forward. Otherwise, get out of my sight. I have better things to do than watch you pretend to be dangerous!”Her words struck like a slap across Matthew’s face.For a moment, he simply stared at Mistress Ayra. Then his expression darkened, and the coldness in his eyes deepened until even the faintest trace of amusement vanished.“You really don’t know how to appreciate a favor, do you?” he asked, his voice dangerously quiet.His patience was wearing thin, and the fact that a woman he considered beneath him continued to humiliate him in front of so many people was rapidly becoming unbearable.Mistress Ayra scoffed, looking him over as though he were a particularly irritating stain she regretted noticing.“Still talking?” she scoffed. “Were you raised on talking water? At this rate, you’d talk through an entire war and still be at the starting line when it en

  • Chapter 1707 – Mistress Ayra’s Calm Insult

    *****Sage Myron's hands tightened into fists. He had endured the sight of an entire army surrounding the hotel, watched armed men point their weapons at Xavier, and forced himself to remain calm because Xavier hadn’t made a move.Yet somehow, listening to these ignorant fools question Xavier's courage was proving almost as infuriating as the threats themselves.‘They actually dare to speak about the sir like this?’Mistress Ayra was no less furious. Her eyes swept across the crowd, memorizing the faces of those who had been particularly enthusiastic about insulting Xavier.If she had been allowed to act on her first impulse, several of them would already have regretted opening their mouths.Unfortunately, she knew Xavier well enough to understand that he had a reason for remaining silent.If he wanted them to intervene, he would have said so. Until then, losing control of their emotions would accomplish nothing except creating unnecessary trouble for the patriarch.So they endured th

  • Chapter 1706 – Sage Myron and Mistress Ayra’s Dissatisfaction

    *****For a moment, Matthew stood frozen, staring at Xavier, his mind refusing to accept what he had just witnessed.He had expected the bastard to beg for mercy, attempt to negotiate, or at the very least put on a brave face while facing his inevitable defeat.Instead, Xavier had casually allowed the woman to step forward and deal with him, as though Matthew were some insignificant nobody who wasn't worth the effort of lifting a finger.The humiliation finally registered, and Matthew completely lost it."You... you bastard!" he spat, pointing a trembling finger at Xavier. His face twisted with disbelief and fury, as though Xavier had just committed an unforgivable crime. "Did you seriously just tell a mere woman to fight me on your behalf?"His voice rose with every word, carrying across the open space and reaching the ears of everyone surrounding them.The entire area fell silent.The armed fighters exchanged glances, while the onlookers stared at Xavier as though he had just violat

  • Chapter 1705 – Mistress Ayra's Decision

    *****For a moment, Matthew looked ready to explode, his murderous aura surging as he glared at Xavier. If hatred alone could kill, Xavier would have been reduced to ashes where he stood."Fine, then!" he spat, forcing the words through clenched teeth. "Since you want to die that badly, I'll personally squeeze the life out of you!"With that decision made, he turned toward his two guards."No one is to interfere. I'll deal with this low-life myself!"The guards exchanged a brief glance.For a moment, they seemed inclined to object. After all, Xavier had already demonstrated that he was not someone who could be dismissed as an ordinary opponent.However, they quickly reconsidered.As shameless and hot-tempered as Matthew could be, he was genuinely capable.His strength was not an illusion created by his father's reputation, and he had enough combat experience to handle many opponents without assistance. If there was one thing they could not deny, it was that their young master possesse

It’s dragging and boring to say the least. Get on with the story line or you’re going to ruin it big time.

The scene in the conference room took several chapters only to conclude with Lucius leaving. This is longer than a whole episode of Perry Mason.
