Tony’s expression turned grim as he said, “Heed my advice, Serena. The Lennings will eventually come for Xayne. You need a suitable husband to support you immediately. Mr. Zachary is an excellent choice.”

Tony did not want to pressure his daughter, which might lead to an irreversible situation.

Serena’s heart ached when her parents and younger brother pressured her into remarrying for their benefit. She wiped her tears and said with a hint of resentment, “No, I will never agree! I won’t eat a thing. Xayne, we’re leaving.”

She turned to leave while Xayne picked up Coco.

Violet became anxious and hurried to grab Serena, saying, “All right, all right! Don’t leave yet. We won’t pressure you anymore, okay? Mr. Zachary has been a gracious host, so you can’t storm out like that. At least eat something, will you? Come on, sit.”

She realized she was too hasty and needed to approach the situation more cautiously.

Serena reluctantly pulled her chair and sat down, displeased.

Meanwhile, Zac

    Xayne’s explanation sent a chill down everyone’s spine.'You've got to be kidding!'In the past, Xayne split the 450 cases of Romanee-Conti’s Grand Cru red wine among his soldiers for them to enjoy. In addition, the curator of the Forbes Galleries once asked Draven, the leader of the four Dracoguards, to present the 1787 Chateau Lafite Rothschild Bordeaux to Xayne as a tribute.However, Xayne refused, not because he could not appreciate a good wine but because he knew not to trust those foreigners who might have ulterior motives.Zachary’s expression turned grim as he slammed the wine bottle onto the table. He pointed at Xayne and thundered, “What did you just say?! Are you underestimating me? Can you even show me such an expensive wine?”He was furious because Xayne pointed out that his wine was not the most expensive. However, an average person could never afford a $3,500 bottle.‘Who does this bastard think he is? He has no right to look down on me, the heir to the Hyger famil

    Violet nodded and pointed toward the door while shouting at Xayne, "Did you hear that?! Get out of here and stop embarrassing yourself!"Xayne realized there was no point in staying any longer. He stood up to leave, and Serena was about to follow, but he gently pressed her back down. “Just enjoy the meal, okay? I’ll wait for you outside.”The atmosphere in the private room changed when he left. Tony and the other two showered Zachary with compliments, raising their glasses to toast to him. They even toasted to Serena.Suddenly, the door swung open, and a middle-aged man entered with two wine bottles. He wore a gray suit and smiled as a few waitstaff followed him with various delicacies. He smiled and asked, “Are you Ms. Serena?”Serena was confused because she did not recognize the middle-aged man. She stood up and asked, “W-Who are you?”"Hello, everyone. I’m Marvin Watson, the owner of Montiago Hotel. I heard you were dining at my hotel, so I brought these specialty dishes our f

    Zachary and the three Swifts stood dumbfounded and frozen in place.'Mr. Xayne?'Zachary could not help but ask, “You can’t be serious, Mr. Marvin! Are you saying all this is for that good-for-nothing idiot?”He was embarrassed for thinking Marvin came because of his status. Instead, Marvin came for Xayne, and Zachary felt it was a joke.Violet was just as puzzled as she asked, “Mr. Marvin, you’re not joking, are you?”Marvin's gaze turned cold, and he said, "Do you think I'm joking?!"He looked at everyone present and continued in a displeased tone, "Since Mr. Xavier isn't here, these dishes and wine are now yours at a discount."Immediately after, Marvin led his staff out, leaving a heavy atmosphere inside the room. Everyone’s expressions were grim except for Serena.She brimmed with delight as she addressed Violet and Zachary, saying, “Mom, Mr. Zachary, I’ll be taking my leave now. Mr. Marvin left these wines and dishes behind as a gesture for my husband. Please enjoy them a

    Xayne calmly said, "You're Marvin Watson, as mentioned by Chuck?""Yes, that's me," Marvin replied, not daring to underestimate the ordinary-looking man before him. He could sense Xayne’s hidden vitality and spirit. It was a presence no ordinary folk could attain.‘No wonder Chuck repeatedly instructed me to take good care of Mr. Xayne.’“I see.” Xayne nodded.Just then, Serena walked over with Coco in her arms. The former was shocked to see Marvin standing like a schoolboy before Xayne. Surprise and suspicion flashed in her eyes as she asked, “Xayne, what’s going on here?”Xayne went over, took Coco from Serena, and smiled as he explained, "It's nothing. I've known Mr. Marvin for quite some time. Isn't that right, Mr. Marvin?"Seeing the situation, Marvin nodded. "Yes, indeed. Mr. Xayne and I go way back. I shall leave you two to it as I have some matters to handle.”He left in a hurry while Serena looked at Xayne suspiciously. She crossed her arms and lifted her chin before as

    The following day, Xayne headed to the most luxurious villa district in Shalholm, Oceanfront Estates.It was the most upscale villa district in the area, with a seven hundred grand starting price for a unit. Only true elites could afford to reside here. Moreover, Oceanfront Estates was not open to just anyone.Strict requirements were in place regarding the owner’s social status and wealth. Those living here were wealthy, influential, prominent figures from the local scene or even dignitaries from other cities and states.In short, Oceanfront Estates was not meant for commoners.Several disdainful glances greeted Xayne as he entered the sales office, but he ignored them. The sales office had lavish decorations, making one feel like they were entering a palace. Understandably, the sales staff carried an air of superiority.After all, selling houses here was akin to selling castles. The sales staff did not need to cater to customers' whims because they had no shortage of potential b

    ‘This idiot sure has a big mouth. He thinks 1.5 billion is just a number and not actual money.’The surrounding customers and saleswomen laughed. "Hmph, how amusing! Someone like him wants to buy Emperor Villa?""Look at how he dresses. Do you honestly think someone who looks like that can afford Emperor Villa? Even the regular villas cost seven hundred grand." "Talk about overestimating yourself. It's laughable to show off at Oceanfront Estates!"Xayne remained calm and unfazed. He took out a debit card and told Celeste, "You can verify my funds."Celeste was stunned and looked at Xayne skeptically. Deep down, she was somewhat nervous, unsure whether Xayne's claim was true or false."Hmph! Fine, let's verify the funds then. I want to see how much money you have in that card!" She snapped and snatched the debit card from Xayne's hand before heading upstairs.Meanwhile, news of someone wanting to buy Emperor Villa reached Jordan, who quickly emerged from the manager's office.

  • Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector   Chapter 207

    Celeste panted from running over, shouting to Jordan, “Sir, he didn’t lie about having 1.5 billion dollars in his card.”She was dumbfounded when she saw the account balance, so much so that she panicked.‘That casual-looking guy casually pulled out that much money? What if he complains about my poor attitude?’The entire hall fell into a pin-drop silence, and everyone gasped in disbelief."No way! Can you believe it?”"Oh my God! Will they finally sell Emperor Villa?”"Who is this guy, anyway? Jordan just said he was the last of the Xavier family. Weren’t there rumors about a scum marrying into the Swift family? Didn’t they call him a loser? How can he have that much money?”News of Xayne’s identity spread like wildfire throughout the hall. Everyone looked at Xayne with curiosity and doubt.Meanwhile, Jordan looked at Xayne in astonishment. Then he turned to Celeste and took the debit card from her, frowning as he asked, “Did you just say there’s 1.5 billion dollars on this ca

    ‘My family will make a one-million-dollar profit by selling Emperor Villa!’It was a height many second-tier families could not achieve in their entire lifetimes. So, Jordan was incredibly excited to hand the contract to Xayne.Xayne waved and signed without looking at it."Congratulations, Xayne. Starting today, Emperor Villa is yours. Here's the key. Keep it safe," Jordan said as he excitedly passed a diamond-studded key box to Xayne.Xayne accepted it and said, "Mr. Jordan, now let's discuss your company's maliciously inflated prices, which are ten times higher than the market value, and your deliberate market manipulation."Jordan’s smile disappeared after hearing those words. He frowned in disbelief and chuckled, “Xayne, you can’t be serious. Are you pulling my leg? Hahaha!”He laughed to lighten the mood, but the people around him were still in a daze. They were still shocked that Xayne had purchased Emperor Villa."No way! Did he actually buy it?""It’ll be the biggest n

    Dean's wild provocations quickly drew a crowd of onlookers.At that moment, a striking young woman stepped forward, removing her sunglasses as she made her way through the throng.The woman was dressed in an elegant black gown, the hemline revealing a pair of flawless, slender legs that caught everyone's attention. Her expression, however, was haughty, as though she looked down on everyone around her.She was Deanana Lovorka, the heiress of the Lovorka family conglomerate. While not exactly a household name, she was considered a minor socialite in the upper circles of Drakonix."Manager Dean, it's been a while!" Deanana greeted casually.As someone who frequently traveled abroad for business, Deanana was a familiar face at the airport and she had crossed paths with Dean on several occasions.But she was not here for a casual chat with Dean. It was far from it.She had come specifically to see Xayne.This was, after all, the legendary King of the North. Just six months ago, he w

    "Do you have any idea whose luggage this is?" Aava asked coldly with a sharp and commanding tone.She was on the verge of revealing her special credentials—something she rarely used unless absolutely necessary. Xayne had been her hero, someone she deeply admired. The ridicule from Miodrag moments earlier had already pushed her to the edge, and now even a low-level airport staffer dared to humiliate him."Of course, I knew. Xayne, the King of the North six months ago; now he's just a regular civilian," the staffer replied with icy indifference. The staffer smirked. "Miss, do you think Xayne is still the mighty King of the North? There's no war, the capital isn't under siege, and he's utterly useless now. Take my advice—someone young and beautiful like you should stay far away from trash like Xayne. Get closer to someone like Young Master Dongfang instead. It'll do wonders for your future!"Dean swaggered over, cigarette dangling from his mouth, hands clasped behind his back. His ex

    Upon hearing those words, both Xayne and Aava paused in surprise, then frowned in unison.The VIP lounge was clearly still operating as usual. Inside, over twenty people were relaxing—some reading newspapers and sipping coffee. There was no sign of any "closure" or "disinfection."It was obvious that this so-called announcement was deliberately targeting Xayne and Aava."Manager Li, isn't this going a bit too far? That's Xayne—formerly the King of the North. He has special privileges to use the VIP lounge. If this gets reported to higher-ups, we could all be in trouble…," whispered one of the airport staff, cautiously approaching Dean."Higher-ups? Haven't you heard? Young Master Lyuben already gave the order—anyone who sides with Xayne will see their entire family wiped out." Dean sneered, exhaling a cloud of smoke as he lit a cigarette."And even if the higher-ups find out, what can they do?" Dean added mockingly. "I'll admit, six months ago, I wouldn't have dared cross Xayne. B

    Miodrag's laughter quickly caught the attention of onlookers in the bustling terminal. But their gazes were fixed not on him but on Xayne.The "King of the North" was a name nearly everyone recognized, yet no one dared approach him. Lyuben's warning had spread far and wide: anyone who got close to Xayne would face annihilation."Miodrag! What gives you the right to mock Mr. Xayne? Just hours ago, he was fighting on the front lines for this country. And you? What have you done besides indulge yourself in luxury?" Aava snapped with a sharp and clear voice."Heh, I pay taxes, don't I? Doesn't spending money generate tax revenue? Without people like me keeping the economy alive, what would Xayne have eaten in the north? Dirt?" Miodrag smirked, his tone dripping with mockery. He sneered and continued, "If not for us rich kids throwing around millions in donations every day, Xayne wouldn't even have warm dirt to eat!""Damn it! The nerve of that guy!""What's so special about the East

    "Is it true that Xayne captured the so-called 'Lord of Light' alive?" Lyuben remained calm as he was playing a grand piano in the lounge."Indeed! Word is, the Lord of Light's master, Master Emin, was present as well. However, Xander also made an appearance. My analysis suggests it was Xander who forced Master Emin to retreat, while Xayne crippled the Lord of Light." An older man lowered his head respectfully as he spoke, his voice tinged with urgency."Oh? Defeating the Lord of Light… he must have had a trick up his sleeve. Was it some kind of tactic or setup?" Lyuben asked without betraying a hint of emotion."It's said that Xayne specializes in traps and ambushes. Otherwise, Hiram and his crew wouldn't have met their end in that mansion. Master Dongfang, you mustn't underestimate him!""Hmm?!" Lyuben's eyes shot open suddenly, piercing beams of icy resolve radiating toward the older man.The man immediately lowered his head further, not daring to meet the gaze of the young lead

    "Lowes, what are you panicking for?" Zoro's cold gaze locked onto Lowes.Even though Lowes was several generations younger than him, as the head of the Bullard family, he had the status to stand on equal footing with Zoro."I'm not panicking, I just don't want to see more white funeral banners hanging at the Bullard family estate. If Xayne comes back and chooses to settle the score, do you think any of us can handle it? You might not know this, but back when King Quidie rebelled, even Klink didn't dare lay a hand on him," Lowes replied, his voice strained but steady.He paused, taking a long, slow breath to calm himself. "Put it another way, if Xayne comes for us, even KB Kings Circle won't step in to save us. If that doesn't scare you, then I don't know what will!"The air in the room grew colder. Lowes glanced around at the faces of the other family heads, hoping to see reason in their eyes. But then came a sneer.Zoro let out a low, disdainful chuckle. "Even if Xayne didn't die

    "Xayne!" Zoro clenched his fists so tightly. If anyone had a grudge against Xayne, the Eastin family's hatred was no less than that of the Bullard family. Not to mention, Flamey had been killed by Xayne not long ago. This blood feud had to be settled.The Big Four weren't some weak, defenseless prey that Xayne could toy with as he pleased. For decades, the Big Four had controlled the heart of the Drakonia's economy. Every senator, governor, and political figure had to show them respect. But since Iver's death, the Big Four had lost their glow. People who once bowed their heads were now looking down on them. The root of all this was because of Xayne.That's why, after Flamey's death, the Eastin family had no choice but to call upon their master, a man who had been living in seclusion for decades. Every bit of information regarding Xayne's trip to Egenda, his plans, his contacts, and even his flight schedule had been deliberately fed to Lord of Light.They made it clear that the momen

    "In the end, his ambitions were never realized. When he attempted to merge all five Dragon's Hearts, he died. After his death, the Dragon's Hearts vanished without a trace. That's why the Light Order has always kept a close eye on Drakonia, especially on the methods Commander Zedd used to track down those Dragon's Hearts," Joe explained.Hearing this, Xayne was utterly stunned. He had never imagined that over a century ago, Commander Zedd had possessed five Dragon's Hearts. That would have been a time when Drakon Destiny was on the rise. However, because of the failed fusion, Commander Zedd lost not only his life but also Drakon Destiny's, which declined, leading to the humiliations and defeats that followed over the next century."So you're saying the Dragon's Hearts are tied to the fate of a nation?" Xayne asked, his shock evident."Absolutely. Based on our research, there's no doubt about it. The fate of Drakonia is linked to the Dragon's Hearts. Every time someone successfully f

    In the VIP lounge of the airport, Xayne and Aava were waiting for their flight. Not long after, a tall, broad-shouldered young man strode in. He scanned the room briefly before his eyes locked onto Xayne and Aava. Without hesitation, he walked straight toward them. "Mr. Xayne, I'm sorry for the wait. I was sent here by Yves."The young man sized up Xayne, his eyes flashing with surprise when he saw that Xayne was completely unharmed. Word had spread about Xayne's clash with Lord of Light, a confrontation that even drew out a Radiant Commander figure, Emin. Yet here Xayne was, perfectly fine. It was hard not to be impressed.As Yves's right-hand man, Joe Zhird knew better than to underestimate someone like Xayne. His respect was evident in his tone and demeanor. With his status as the top lieutenant of Black Ice Platform, even the heads of prominent families would approach him with courtesy. But right now, it was Joe who was showing deference to Xayne, and this caught Aava by surprise
