Kayson was both bewildered and awkward. Well, great. He did not expect the slender, gorgeous woman who had lent him money on the way here earlier to be Hugh’s granddaughter.Like the old man had said, she was blessed in her looks. There was no flaw in her face and figure. In addition to her ample bosoms, she was a picture-perfect goddess.Sadie’s gaze was icy. When she saw Kayson, she remembered how frightened she was when the man stopped her earlier.“Sade! Don’t be rude to Kayson! He’s your husband-to-be!” Hugh glowered, unable to accept his granddaughter’s attitude toward Kayson.Sadie’s expression morphed into shock as she said through gritted teeth, “Grandpa, is this a joke? Him? My future husband?”Hugh snorted. “This is the best partner I’ve chosen for you. You’ll understand my intentions and efforts in the future!”Hugh would never forget the scene back in the years as if he had gotten to see a deity. Kayson’s mentor must definitely be an unimaginably great presence. Forg

Kayson looked at the proof of marriage in his hand in surprise.‘This is fake? The woman must be pretty influential to be able to achieve this then.’“Oh, okay.”He actually did not mind it at all. It was good that it was fake—it would save him the trouble in the future.Sadie was still scowling as she said, “Go back on your own. I still have things to do!”She left with a snap of the head right after that, leaving Kayson with a twitching lip as he muttered, “What a handful of a princess…“Never mind, it’ll take three to four months at most. Let’s just return the favor as soon as possible and go back to the mountain.”Kayson went to a nearby forest to pick some herbs, crushed them, and concocted them into dark inky medicinal balls. He smiled in approval as a unique medicinal scent wafted.‘Grandpa Hugh’s damaged organs will heal with these pills.’The affliction harming Hugh’s organs had accumulated over the years, causing his organs to sustain a certain degree of damage. Thus

Zachary was cheery, while Hugh looked troubled during dinner.Fortunately, Zachary shared two medicinal pills with Hugh before he left, which cheered the latter up a little.Sadie and Liam had gone upstairs, probably still feeling embarrassed about what happened earlier.Kayson came to sit on the couch with Hugh and urged him to take the Panmederi pill.Hugh spoke up. ‘Kayson, I feel much better now. This pill seems to be very effective.”Kayson asked, “Grandpa Hugh, I can see that you’re well-trained. Who injured you when you were young to have caused this damage today?”Hugh sighed and waved his hand. “I was too young and cocky at that time. Let’s not talk about the past. One’s got to pay it back when they’re out and about in the world.”Kayson stopped pursuing it since Hugh did not want to speak of it. Hugh felt reinvigorated, so he got Kayson to play several rounds of chess with him.Sadie dolled up and came downstairs with a pretty purse like she was heading out around 2

“Uh…”Kayson was a little startled and felt kind of strange. Beatrice did not seem put off by him. Why? Was it because he had saved Hugh?Thinking about it, he did not find it too odd. It would not make sense if he did not sleep at Sadie’s either.“I’ll head over then, Mrs. Wolfenden.”Kayson went to Sadie’s room and knocked. No one opened even after some time had passed, and there was no sound from inside either. He could only open the door and enter anyway since Beatrice was looking at him from the side.The sound of water running came from the bathroom. Kayson raised a brow. The girl was taking a shower—that was why she did not hear him knocking on the door. He took a seat on the floor without touching the heiress’ belongings.About ten minutes later, Sadie came out of the bathroom with a towel that only reached her mid-thighs. Her legs were long and fair. She had just taken a shower, and they looked soft and delicate like an art piece.As Kayson shifted his eyes up, he saw a

Kayson got his bearings, but he did not expect someone to be this ruthless and drive into them directly. He pushed open the car door, and one man got out of the four cars that rammed into them, respectively.They did not look like they had good intentions, and it was highly possible that they were all thugs.The one who felt like the leader did not do anything but target Kayson.Kayson remained unfazed as he asked them, “You’re from the Gillete Group?”The man held a dagger in his hand, keeping his sharp gaze on Kayson as he commented darkly, “You’re actually fine.”It would be a challenge for him to stay so alert and conscious through that violent collision, but this young man before him was looking alright, like he was not even affected!“Bro, no need to talk nonsense with him. Get him!” someone else yelled and attacked Kayson.Kayson scoffed and dashed forward. Before that person could react, Kayson’s punch sent him flying.“Hmm? A trained man!?”The leader of the group was
