They attacked from every side, not leaving any breathing space. The leader of the gang beamed brightly with smiles.

However, Quinin remained unfazed. With steps mixed into the air and we're barely noticeable to the human air, his hands tore through their jaws, knocking them out cold.

Xerxes' skin tightened with shock as Quinin dusted off himself. His poker expression returned and he got into the car where George had been taken to.

Taking a pill out of his pockets, it slipped into the mouth of George and dissolved almost immediately.

His wounds healed slowly and the swells all reduced. He handed over a few more to the one taking care of him.

"One tonight and another tomorrow morning and he would be as good as new."

Xerxes remained calm. But her inside was shaken with astonishment.

How could someone be betrothed to such a person and not want them? Instead going for someone who wasn't even a tenth his worth.

"Well. It's an opportunity to get what isn't valued for myself." She smiled.

Quinin got into the car, casually like nothing had happened.

"Everything is set now. We should get going."

Xerxes nodded to the driver. Soon, they were at the entrance of the Famous family Villa.

Quinin was about to alight from the car when Lady Xerxes stopped her, a warm feeling rising through her chest.

"Are you sure you wouldn't want anything? Even from me?" She inquired with a smirk tugging her lips.

"No..." Quinin stressed.

"That's sad. Just tell me if you need anything." She handed over to Quinin, her business card and blink.

Quinin got out of the car and walked forward toward the mansion

He squeezed his hands tightly remembering that he had to do all of this because of his mentor.

"You again. What are you doing here? You sure know the perfect way of ruining the mood of anyone." Emily growled, coming from behind with her friends and a few others

"Thought he said initially that he wasn't trailing us. Then how come he is here?" Said Victoria, her face squeezed with disdain.

"Well, who is he?" The lady standing before them inquired.

Her akin resemblance to Emily was enough to identify that she was the mother of the girl who lacked manners.

"And who is he, dear Emily?" Her curiosity rose to the peak.

"The guy I told you about mom. The one that I accidentally met at the entrance of the hotel and bumped into me without apologizing.

And then he chickened away while Kelly helped me out with those thugs."

Lady Kate frowned.

"He looks just as pitiful as described."

Without much hesitation, she brought out a few bundles of cash from her pockets and threw them at Quinin.

"There. You have it. The reason that you have been lurking after my daughter like a lost puppy. Now scram!" She growled.

Quinin's eyes remained straight up at hers.

"I'm sorry but you have gotten the wrong ideas. If Mr. Famous is around, then he could be of use in clarifying this..." Quinin corrected them.

They all laughed at the stupid proposition.

"You know Mr. Famous The audacity of broke people these days.

But when their life is worthless and without value, I'm sure they can do anything that they want without the fear of death!" They mocked Quinin who remained calm.

He waited peacefully because he had already sent a message to Mr. Famous before coming over.

The door opened and everyone was greeted by a gray-looking old man, supported by a walking staff.

"What are you doing out Sir? Famous." Everyone panicked quickly rushing off.

"Don't worry about me, Emily, Kate. Get everything ready. Your husband is here."

"I don't see anyone!" Emily's face tilted around in total confusion and Sir. Famous giggled turning over Quinin.

"Good day, Mr. Quinin. Don't take that to heart.

My daughter is always fond of fumbling with dark humor now and then. Be assured that she's a good person." His toothless mouth was displayed by the warm smile.

"Yeah. I have experienced the part for myself and lot more." Added Quinn.

And Emily who had her mouth falling agape the whole time finally spoke.

"Him? That's the fiance?" Emily's body shook under the weight of the astonishment that collapsed on her.

    Mr. Famous's face gleaned. "Yes! Should there be a problem?" Emily blinked with a sense of disgust twisting it's way into her stomach. The rest of the family went into the Villa while Quinn remained in the waiting room. "Grandpa, tell me this is a prank. It's someone else right? I mean I can even accept a farmer if he is well to do. Not a pathetic looking one." Her voice tightened. "Dead people don't tell jokes and I am already closer to that." Mr. Famous said gravely. Emily squeezed her hands tightly. She never wanted to get married to someone that she didn't even know in the first instance, talk less about someone who looked like they had just been picked off from the gutters. "He is poor, stinks, and has no future ahead of him! I can't get married to him. I believe if we give him a good amount of money, he would break the agreement without blinking." With a firm stance, Mr. Famous shook his head. "I have already made my decision, Emily, you are getting married to him." A g

    The guards of the Han family fell into the range of the most deadly group in Eastside. And Han had a potential connection with the outside world. Emily stuttered violently. "Yes. That's more like it." Vince staggered off from the floor, supported by two guards. "For that taunt that tried to touch me. I'm going to spare him, to the brink of death if you come with me, and he apologies. If you don't follow these instructions strictly, then I would have no choice but to kill him!" Emily, still flustered, could only attempt to bow her head to apologize. It wasn't for Quinin but her grandfather. If he could react in such a manner just to get her to marry him, she could not even dare to think about what he would do if anything happens to Quinin. However, Quinin stopped her. She flashed a frown at him. "What do you think you're doing!" She growled. "Your dumb ass is the reason that I got into all of this in the first place. And you're still trying to make things worse. If you don't a

    Screams."Pervert!"Emily grappled to the bed sheet, stumping out from the bed with a face widened with shock."Did you dare to touch me last night?" She growled at the young man lying on the bed."Wow, what a pretty way of saying good morning and thank you for last night!" Quinn face ran cold."Did you?" Emily's brows twitched."Why should I? There's nothing to amuse me with."Emily bubbled with rage. She was the gem of the Eastside city and also the heiress of the fastest-rising company in the city.Men would lurk after her like ants to sugar from afar, it would be a dying wish to even lay on the same bed with her.Yet, some farm-looking boy just discarded her like a heap load of garbage. It was difficult to point out what she was angry at, his comment or the fact that she could sense that she had been taken advantage of."You're not only a pervert but also irresponsible?" Her eyes popped up."Getting drunk and ending up in a room that isn't yours? A well thought out definition of r

    Before Emily could give a response, he already stepped forward with a glamour to his face. Seeing the commotion involving Emily, was another way to shine forth his proposal. "Hello Mr. Farm boy. Seems you're new in town." He observed. "I should give you a survival tip. When you come into a new place. You do a thorough study on the people you should and shouldn't mess with." He smirked. "And such persons include myself and Lady Emily." "If that's all you have got to say, please excuse me, I have an appointment to catch." The crowd was awestruck. Nobody would dare to speak to Kelly in such a manner. If someone else were to be in the shoes of Quinin, they would be shaking in their booths already. "Because you're new.. I am going to let that slide." He slapped on Quinin's shoulders multiple times. "And we a no will all pretend like today is a normal day and let you off the hook, only if you apologize to Lady Famous for your insolence." His words flashed with murderous intents as h

    Quinin waited patiently, far away from the drama. The crowd was already clearing out and he opted to get the gift later in the day. A brand new Porsche stopped right besides Quinin, and the rest members of the crowd almost gawked their throats out. A man who was well-known to everyone in the city stepped off the card. Mr. Nam, one of the first five power-ranking men in the city, known to have built his own empire. "Sir. Quinin. I'm very sorry I came late. It will not happen again." He apologized gravely, bowing multiple times, even though it was just a few seconds. "It's fine. Just get me to the hospital as soon as possible." "Okay, sir."

The earlier the better for all of us." Doctor Col informed. "We aren't going to do any such thing. Do you understand who heiress Xerxes is and how this is going to impact our hospital? Nobody will come here if anything happens to him. We can at least try." "Or you aren't the great Doctor that you say you are." Ben scoffed. Col racked his head.

    "Oh!" Xerxes remembered that she had read something like that. But Emily Famous was already hinting at having a relationship with someone else. Plus, over the years, nobody had sighted the two loving couples together. This ship was going to wreck and she would just be waiting patiently to take the ruins for herself and build a cruise ship. "I wouldn't mind a little compensation?" The young lady remained determined. Just then, a bang was heard just ahead of them. The cars came to a halt "What's wrong?" Xerxes inquired. "I will check it out. Just give me a few seconds." The assistant replied. He got out of the car while the rest watched closely. George was encased closely by a convoy of cars. A group of fully armed men stepped forward. Broad chested and eyes filled with murderous intent. Quinin recognized one of them in an instant. It was the same man that had looked at him with a death stare earlier that day. He had come back for him. Just as he noted he was going to do. Qu
