It would be factual to say that Austin learned how to fight from Aldus.In fact, it was Aldus who had developed and optimized the fighting techniques that most of the Campbells would learn. He could be considered a well-respected family friend to the Campbells.It was also apparent that Brian's mastery of Aldus' fighting style was even better than Austin's.Austin could not help but be intrigued.Brian's eyes flickered from the question, a mild hint of hesitation could be seen on his bearded face.He eventually smiled and replied, "We're… just teacher and student. And friends, I guess."Austin just nodded in response to Brian's simple explanation. "Thank you for looking after me all this while.""You're one of Aldus' students, after all. You're as much of a friend to me as Aldus is. To be honest, you should be thanking Aldus for all of this."Brian then waved his hand and pointed at the fighter jet. "You should get going."As Austin got into the fighter jet, it would immediate
Cecily could feel her heart racing as though it was jumping out of her chest. Her whole body felt slightly warmer than usual. However, she remained sensible and gently pushed Austin away."Austin, shall we check out the decor of our bedroom?" With a smile, Cecily held Austin's hand and headed downstairs. In the meantime, Dahlia, Ezra, and the others were chattering happily in the master bedroom. Edward and Rachel had arrived earlier as well. Aldus, Wolf, Vincent, and Yannis were present too. Even Jennie traveled overnight from Kandor City.All of them worked together and gave the couple's bedroom a makeover. "Mr. Lockwood, What time will Walter arrive tomorrow?" Dahlia was exhilarated. A wide smile appeared on her radiant face. Austin's previous three-year marriage broke her heart. Back then, she was on her deathbed and was a burden to her son. However, everything was over. Dahlia had finally gone through the hard part. Now, she saw the light at the end of the
Night fell. Vincent ran out of Heavensgate Residence and waited by the mountain road. When the headlights of a car shone from afar, he quickly marched to the middle of the road. Screech! The Mercedes G-Class came to a sudden halt. The car door was opened. Cecily was bewildered as she got out of the car. "Vincent, what's the matter?"Vincent glared at Cecily with a long face. It made Cecily feel a little uneasy. Edwards and Rachel, who were in the car, furrowed their brows. They were slightly displeased. "Come over, Cecily. I have a question for you."Vincent glanced at the Mercedes G-Class before his eyes landed on Cecily again. Cecily sauntered over to Vincent. "Are… Are you really sure that the Austin with us now is the real Austin?" Vincent asked in a low voice.Cecily's body trembled. Doubt flickered across her gaze. "Vincent, You and Austin are buddies. Why did you ask such a question?" "Answer me!" "Do you think he would risk his life to save mine if
At the same time, the phone in Vincent's hand fell into the pool of blood as well. "Vincent, where are you? What happened to you?" Yannis' concerned voice sounded on the phone. Lying in the pool of blood, Vincent gazed at his phone. He started drifting into unconsciousness. He felt as if two pieces of iron were weighing on his eyelids. They became heavier and started closing gradually. Meanwhile, Yannis, who was in the villa, panicked and shouted into the phone a few times. She became apprehensive when there was no response from the other side of the phone. Her eyes turned red and were brimming with tears. Dahlia and the others saw the scene when they returned to the villa. "Yannis, what's wrong?" Dahlia asked anxiously. "Madam Emerson, Vincent is in trouble." "What? Wasn't he here just now? Where is he?" Dahlia's expression changed. Everyone in the villa was shocked. Tomorrow was the wedding day. Why did Vincent get into trouble now?"He went out just now. Madam
When the first ray of sunlight shone on the earth, Tetra Club had already come alive. The atmosphere was blissful. The entrance of the majestic Tetra Club was adorned with lights and decorations that signified a long-lasting marriage. Tetra Club was chosen as the wedding venue. This completely revealed the usually mysterious and low-profile Tetra Club to the public. The wedding was the center of everyone's attention. There was a huge crowd in front of Tetra Club. Luxurious cars drove into Tetra Club one after another. The reporters with a keen sense of newsworthy events flocked to the place but were not allowed to enter Tetra Club. They could only set up their cameras and other equipment in a nearby open space. "Look! It's Jacob Sanders! Reginald Pearson is in the car behind him!" "Big deal! I even saw Mr. Newman going in just now!" "Oh my god! All the rich and powerful people are attending this wedding! If only we could go into Tetra Club and take a few shots. I
The enthusiastic reporters were dumbfounded when they saw the usually arrogant upper-class men leave right after presenting their gifts.They could not believe that those were the upper-class men from their city. At the same time, it was full of joy inside Tetra Club. The Campbells and the Grahams had put their blood, sweat, and tears into the wedding. Austin was generous and spent a lot of money in order to make it perfect. From the gazebos to every plant, the whole Tetra Club had been decorated spectacularly. It looked like a completely different place. Everyone felt as if they had stepped into a fantasy world. At the reception, Dahlia, Ezra, Edward, and Rachel were grinning with pride as they greeted every guest. Some guests were invited by the Grahams, but most of them came because of the Campbells.The wedding of Walter's son, who had control over the wealth of the world, was a golden opportunity. Even the rich and powerful who had not heard of Austin's name
As Vincent said this, his and Austin's eyes locked. Just then, some people around them started to sense that something was off. Ezra was the first to break the silence. "Yannis, Wolf, don't you think it's time that Vincent got some rest?" he said. The three of them left. Ezra stayed behind to chat with Austin and a few others for a bit before running after them.They huddled in a secluded area away from the party. The lively atmosphere between the party and their discussion was vastly different with the latter being somewhat somber and cold. "What are you doing?" Yannis asked, uneasily. Vincent and Austin's expressions had been extremely unpleasant.She couldn't understand how the relationship between two friends could change so suddenly in the blink of an eye. Wolf, who was standing off to the side, frowned in confusion. Just then, Ezra rushed over to them. With a serious expression, he asked, "Are you here to celebrate or make a scene?""Of course, I'm here to celebr
Even if they desperately wanted to interact with Walter and the Grahams, they were holding it in. Ezra leaned in and whispered softly, "Sir, it's almost time. We should proceed with the wedding." Austin nodded and smiled. "Mom, Dad. The wedding should be starting soon," he said. Melodious music started to play. The music echoed across the spacious lawn of the Tetra Club. Just then, the crowd fell silent, as all the important guests started to take their seats. Jennie had helped to coordinate the ceremony and brought along the best team. The entire wedding ceremony was just top-notch. Even the emcee was a top host. Everything was planned according to Cecily's dream wedding. After the emcee's opening introduction, the main event quickly began.When Austin stepped onto the stage, the entire crowd erupted into thunderous applause. No matter how rich or powerful they were, nobody withheld their applause. Everyone knew that the Campbells were way above their league. To
