Chapter 725
Author: Lord Leaf
The car finally arrived at Shangri-La.

Alas, the five men could not even open the car door on their own.

The Shangri-La hotel staff usually looked down on all rental cars. Therefore, they rarely opened the car door for any guests who arrived at the hotel in a cab. When they saw the cab, they deliberately acted as though they could not see the car at all, refusing to step forward to open the car door for them.

There was a moment of awkward silence in the car. At this time, Johnny suddenly yelled at the cab driver, “D*mn it! Are you blind?! Don’t you know how to open the car door for us?”

The cab driver was a little annoyed, and he said, “Then, you should pay me the cab fare first. You told me that you would pay me ten thousand dollars for this trip.”

Johnny replied, “Help me open the car door first. After getting off the car, you can take the money from my pocket by yourself. I cannot move my arms right now because my arms are injured.”

The cab driver got out of the car before he

    When the captain of the security team at Shangri-La hotel saw this scene, he quickly led a group of men with him as they rushed over to stop them. He then said coldly, “Guys, do not cause trouble at the entrance of the Shangri-La hotel. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not giving you face!”Johnny knew that Isaac Cameron, the boss of Shangri-La, had a very strong and influential background. Therefore, he hurriedly stopped his men before he said to the cab driver, “You are very fortunate today! You’d better be more careful in the future. Otherwise, I will kill you!”After he was done speaking, he stepped up as he tried to bring his men into Shangri-La with him.Just as they were about to enter, the security guards quickly stepped up to stop them. After that, the lobby manager hurriedly came over and said, “Sorry, gentlemen. You are all indecently dressed and poorly groomed. According to our hotel regulations, you cannot enter our Shangri-La hotel!”As soon as he heard the manager’s wor

    After Johnny and the other four bodyguards had left, the scene in the lobby was a complete mess.The lobby manager of Shangri-La and the team of security guards were all lying on the ground with serious injuries inflicted upon them. Their face and noses were all very swollen, and they looked very miserable at this time.One of the security guards struggled to stand up as he hurriedly rushed over to help the lobby manager up from the ground. At this time, he could not help but ask, “Manager, what should we do now?”The lobby manager quickly replied with a cold expression on his face, “Hurry up and bring all of our men to the hospital immediately. I will go and look for Mr. Cameron! I am certain that Mr. Cameron will not let them off so easily since they actually dared to cause trouble at Shangri-La!”Then, the lobby manager started limping toward Isaac’s office.At this time, both the father and son, Donald and Sean, were still waiting at the presidential suite of the Shangri-La ho

    Sean subconsciously took a few steps back. After that, Johnny and the rest of their men gathered upall their courage and they had a downcast expression on their faces as they entered the presidentialsuite like defeated dogs, with their lowered heads and broken arms!Donald was stunned when he saw the five men walking into his room. He lost his grip of the teacup in his hand and dropped it to the ground in shock…Donald stared at the five men in shock and was dumbfounded. “You… you… what happened?! What happened to your foreheads? Why is it all bloodied and covered in blood? This… why does it look like someone has written something on your foreheads?”Since the five men had their heads lowered, it was rather difficult for Donald to make out the words that were carved on their foreheads.Johnny immediately took a step forward and plopped down to the ground with a thud as he knelt in front of Donald and said sincerely, “Mr. Webb, I am sorry for not getting things done! Please give m

    At this time, the lobby manager who had been kicked half to death by Johnny staggered through the door of Isaac’s office with the help of several employees.The lobby manager opened Isaac’s office door. As soon as the lobby manager entered Isaac’s office, Isaac immediately saw that he was covered in injuries. He blurted out, “Mr. Zelmer, what happened?!”Mr. Zelmer spoke indignantly, “Mr. Cameron, some of the bodyguards working for the Webb family in Sudbury broke into our hotel! They even beat me and our team of security guards up in the hotel lobby!”“What?!” Isaac frowned before he asked, “What happened exactly? Donald Webb and his son are both staying at the presidential suite in Shangri-La. This means that their bodyguards are also staying in the presidential suite with them. So, why did they have to fight and beat all of you up to break into the hotel?”Mr. Zelmer hurriedly explained, “The situation is pretty complicated. It seems as though the five bodyguards have just gotte

    Charlie nodded slightly.After that, his father-in-law went and smoked his cigarette. So, Charlie sat in his car as he answered the phone call.After the phone call was connected, Isaac hurriedly said, “Mr. Wade, I heard that you had a conflict with the bodyguards from the Webb family?”Charlie nodded slightly before he said, “Your information is really quite timely!”Isaac hurriedly replied, “Mr. Wade, I heard that these five people were causing a scene and making trouble at Shangri-La. I only found out about this matter after sending someone to investigate and check it out.”After that, Isaac quickly explained what had happened when Johnny and the other bodyguards had arrived at Shangri-La.After listening to Isaac’s words, Charlie replied coldly, “Those five dogs. I never expected them not to learn their lesson at all. I thought that they would have learned their lesson and tried to be more low-key in the future. However, I really did not expect them to use their legs to cause

    Even though Donald was a billionaire, he was not a generous person.In other words, in his eyes, he should not waste or spend any more money that should not be spent.This was exactly what he felt as he looked at Johnny and the other four men.The five of them had already broken their arms and could not even open the f*cking car door on their own anymore. What was he going to do if he continued keeping them by his side?Their salaries were ridiculously high. If he continued to retain them, he would only be doing charity if he fed them until they were old.Therefore, Donald felt that he should drive them as far away as he could, as soon as he possibly could.The farther they went, the better it would be for him.In truth, Donald did not even want to pay them the five hundred thousand dollars severance pay at all.Therefore, he could not help but feel as though he was already being very generous toward them.However, Johnny and the other bodyguards did not feel the same way!Th

    Donald yelled out in pain as he fell to the ground. He could not help but feel panic in his heart.Sean who was standing next to him subconsciously yelled, “Hey! Who gave you the right to hit my father?”Isaac strode toward Sean before punching him directly in his nose. After Sean’s face was covered in blood, Isaac yelled, “Even your father has to be respectful and polite to me. Who do you think you are? You actually dare to talk to me in this manner?! Are you that tired of living? Do you believe that I can take your life right now?”“You are really asking to die!” Sean had already lived so long, and he had never been reprimanded or beaten up before. However, he had already been beaten up twice today.First, Charlie had broken one of his wrists. Now, Isaac actually had also broken his nose with a single punch.He had been a spoiled and arrogant brat ever since he was a child. That being said, how could he possibly tolerate this?Sean roared angrily, “Do you think you are that gre

    Donald was very furious and he glared at the five men who were kneeling on the ground before he asked coldly, “Which one of you did it? Or did the five of you do it together?”Johnny was instantly frightened when he saw the killing intent in Donald’s eyes. He hurriedly said, “Mr. Webb, you cannot blame us for this matter! We already tried to explain to the lobby manager and the security guards that we were working for the Webb family. However, they insisted that we were all dressed inappropriately and said that we were not allowed to enter Shangri-La. I was simply very anxious to come up to report the matter to you. That is the reason why we clashed with the security guards and broke into the hotel…”Donald was extremely angry when he heard Johnny’s explanation. He gave him a tight slap across his face as he said, “You are really a bunch of good-for-nothing! Do you think that the Shangri-La hotel is a place that you can break into any time you want?! You keep telling me that you were

    Reservations in Heaven Springs had always been unpredictable, and most rooms weren't open to the general public—even if said rooms were vacant for the night.It was not as if Albert Rhodes didn't want to make money when he built Heaven Springs. He simply didn't do it solely for profit, but only mostly for social events and posturing.Back when he was a humbler member of society, he realized that many bigwigs and even his fellows cared for pride a lot. Be it food, liquor, or even simply everyday consumption, they always strove for the best and the most expensive.That was why polite society valued their privacy and established their respective social circles, which was why Heaven Springs ensured that everything was first-rate: atmosphere, service, food, and clientele.Just like how bigwigs wouldn't dine at the same table as their goons, said goons wouldn't eat at the fancy places those bigwigs frequented even if they had money, as it may appear as if they were overstepping.That wa

    As such, intent on keeping up his pretense, Jacob answered the phone, "Looking for me, Matilda?""Uh-huh," Matilda replied, and asked, "You didn't show up at Senior University, and your sub is saying you probably won't be coming for a while? Is that true?""Oh—right, that," Jacob quickly said. "Well, it's true—the gist of it is that the Association is getting busy with a project. As the vice president, I probably shouldn't be staying at Senior University all the time, right?""Heck, Mr. Bay called me last minute, telling me how busy we're going to be and that I was needed. That's why I had to go back, but I will head over to campus again when I have the time."Matilda knew right then that those were all excuses.However, she did not expose Jacob, instead asking, "Well, when are you free? So that I can send you my wedding invitation?""Oh, the invitation?" Jacob quickly chuckled. "You really didn't have to come to me—just pass it to Walker, my sub lecturer. He can pass it to me wh

    The next afternoon, there was a sudden change of lecturers for the calligraphy class.Despite being the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, Jacob never showed up, instead getting a substitute instructor to replace him.Matilda had come with the invitation Yolden had written for Jacob, but seeing that Jacob wasn't at the lecture hall, she waited until the class was over to ask the sub, "Excuse me, can I ask why Mr. Wilson wasn't teaching this class?""He's busy at the association," the sub replied. "So, I'm taking over his class."Curious, Matilda pressed, "Then, would you happen to know when he will be coming?""Probably not for a while," the sub replied. "He delegated other classes to me as well, telling me that I could just stick to the PowerPoint slides."Then, he asked, "Do you have business with Mr. Wilson?"Matilda nodded. "Yes, but I can call him myself. Thank you."Leaving the lecture hall, Matilda called Jacob, who was goofing off in his office

    On the other end, Matilda was left staring at Jacob's reply in confusion.She had presumed that Jacob would understand when she mentioned inviting his whole family that he should be coming up with an excuse to skip attending her wedding.That was the most ideal solution.As such, she was shocked that instead of playing along, Jacob's reply was short and blunt.[No problem. The four of us will be there!]Perplexed, Matilda was left wondering what Jacob meant. Was he really going to attend her wedding with Elaine?The thought left Matilda frowning as she absolutely didn't want to see Elaine—especially not at her own wedding.Yolden was writing an invitation when he saw the somber look on her face, and he couldn't help asking, "Is there a problem?""Jacob replied," Matilda admitted. "And he's saying that he will bring his whole family.""Really?" Yolden was confused too, as he was hardly as eccentric as Jacob. "But he's afraid of his wife and shouldn't be telling her at all…

    Charlie was driving Jacob to Thompson First when the latter received the text from Matilda.Seeing that they were reaching the front gates, Jacob promptly snapped at Charlie, "Charlie, stop the car now!"Charlie did so and asked in curiosity, "What's wrong?""Matilda just texted me," Jacob replied, showing the chat log between him and Matilda.Charlie was just glancing at it nonchalantly when he saw that Matilda's contact name was 'AAA July Florist'."Wait, why is that Aunt Matilda's contact name?" He exclaimed in surprise."I changed it."Jacob explained gingerly while reading through the text Matilda sent. "Her profile picture is an iris, so I changed her contact name to a florist since I'm mostly worried Elaine would peek into my phone.""Anyway, she's asking if I'm attending her wedding with Yolden. They would send us an invitation if I accept, extended to our whole family… what do you think I should say?"Charlie asked in return. "You're planning to skip it, aren't you? T

    Then, Matilda suggested, "How about this—I'll ask him before deciding." "I'll pass on inviting the rest of my former classmates too. They're too vain and love comparing, so I'd rather not have anything to do with that. Also, there are our Korean friends who have it together, and they were telling us to invite them if we were going to get married. We have to keep our promise, right?""Yeah—then, it's basically decided. Aside from Charlie, we shall invite our colleagues and Korean friends while we wait for an answer from Jacob."Yolden nodded and said, "Now, I'll talk about the honeymoon—cut me short if you have a different opinion."Matilda nodded, resting her chin on her hands and smiling. "Shoot. I'm all ears."Feeling a little embarrassed by Matilda's glowing stare, Yolden took a sip of his ice water before continuing, "My idea is to head to the States for our honeymoon after the wedding…"He trailed off, staring at Matilda and waiting for a response.However, she was merely

    "Oh, Jacob…?"Matilda chuckled awkwardly. "Just today, he offered to buy me dinner, but I said I didn't have the time, and I also told him about our wedding… So, we should invite him since he's aware of it.""Jacob offered to buy you dinner?" Yolden exclaimed in surprise. "Did he say why?""Nope," Matilda shrugged, smiling. "Probably just dinner between old classmates."However, she was actually smart enough to guess Jacob's intention even though Jacob was inviting her somewhere near campus. That was why she had also mentioned she was marrying Yolden while turning down Jacob, all so that he would give up on her.After she had managed to get over their past fling completely, she didn't want to give Jacob false hopes before she walked down the aisle.In the same regard, she didn't want to worry Yolden, and therefore, had deliberately discouraged Jacob.Be that as it may, Yolden was smart too.He knew about Matilda and Jacob's past and that her son, Paul's full name was Paul Jam

    Before Charlie had arrived, Jacob was still furious that Matilda would soon marry Yolden.After Charlie came, however, he was instead worried that Matilda would send him a wedding invitation.Meanwhile, Matilda and Yolden were discussing their list of guests.They had different social circles, but most of their friends were Stateside, and they only had some distant relatives in this country.Still, they had colleagues in Aurous Hill. Matilda had classmates too, but she was out of touch with them aside from Jacob, whom she often met.Still, as they discussed who should be invited, Matilda first suggested, "Let's go through everyone. First, our Stateside friends… I don't think we should tell them at all since it's a long journey, and inviting them would seem tactless. What do you think?"Yolden nodded, smiling, "I was just thinking the same thing. We're close with our Stateside friends and always keep in touch, but inviting them to our wedding might be a stretch. We'd just hit a wa

    With that being said, once Matilda was thrown in the mix, Elaine would suddenly become an African honey badger, with every bit of black air force energy that was implied.As such, if Jacob had managed to be brave and take that one step back then, Charlie would have tried to help, stopping Elaine from harassing Jacob or Matilda.However, the reality was that Jacob had to bungle the chance when Matilda offered it to him.That was why the best option was for Jacob to understand that he couldn't get together with Matilda now so that he would feel much better.And since he had always been a coward, Charlie's slight intimidation cleared his head considerably.He then sighed, "Well, that's just life—you don't always get what you want, and you should never try to claim what you couldn't. I couldn't bring myself to choose Matilda over thirty years ago, so not being together now only makes sense.""Now, I can only pray that Elaine never finds out… or at least that things don't get out of h
