1227 Words
"Hitting you is nothing. I could even kill you, believe it or not?"
That one sentence left everyone in shock.
Mr. Rivers covered his face in shock, trying to speak harshly, but Xavier's cold gaze silenced him.
The Lewis family was utterly horrified.
In Cloud City, wealthy families abound, but the Lewis family doesn't even rank, while the Rivers family holds true local power.
As the young master of the Rivers family, Mr. Rivers was never contradicted, let alone hit.
And Xavier, once a laughingstock, returns after five years missing, not only hitting Mr. Rivers but also threatening to kill him?
"Do you even know who Mr. Rivers is? Hitting him is a death wish." Lucy pointed at Xavier, her hand trembling.
Today was the day the Lewis family invited Mr. Rivers to finalize the wedding date, but Xavier's disruption ruined everything, and it might even lead to the Lewis family being retaliated against by Mr. Rivers.
Xavier turned to Lucy with a calm gaze, "I don't care who he is."
"You madman," Lucy said.
"All I know is that my daughter is the most noble little princess in the world, unmatched by anyone. Anyone who dares to bully her deserves to die!" Xavier's gaze gradually turned cold.
"You..."
Facing Xavier's icy gaze, even Lucy suddenly felt a bit scared.
"With my daughter here today, I won't cause bloodshed. But within three days, have the head of the Rivers family bring you to apologize, or the Rivers family will cease to exist."
His words carried profound implications.
This left Mr. Rivers shocked once more.
He looked at Xavier with a changeable expression, intending to threaten Xavier, but when the words reached his mouth, he didn't know how to start.
Before anyone could react, Xavier turned and left with his daughter, leaving everyone dumbfounded. The security guards, drawn by the commotion, were too astonished to stop him.
"This guy's a madman."
"He dares to demand the head of the Rivers family bring Mr. Rivers to apologize? Who does he think he is? He's doomed, won't live to see tomorrow."
"Mr. Rivers, this person hasn't been associated with our Lewis family for a long time."
After a while, the Lewis family members, regaining their senses, hurried to assist Mr. Rivers.
Trembling with anger, he said, "Well, Xavier, this feud is set. In Cloud City, you're the first to dare treat someone from my Rivers family like this. Within three days, I'll make sure you have no place to be buried."
Then, casting a cold glance at the Lewis family, he turned and left.
That glance made Chad and the others' faces pale, "We're doomed, Mr. Rivers is furious..."
"It's all that jerk Xavier's fault. He must have come back long ago, just waiting for this moment to cause trouble. It's too much, after all the Lewis family has done for him..." Lucy ranted incessantly.
"What can we do now? We can only try to fix things."
Chad frowned, glanced at his brother Julian, Sophie's father, and saw him standing with his head down. He got angry, "You're the most cowardly one. Xavier shows up, and you don't even say a word."
"What can I do? We were the ones who wronged him..." Julian said softly.
Naturally timid, he was very afraid of both his brother and his wife, and didn't dare to speak up.
"Shut up."
Chad's angry shout made Julian not dare to speak again, only able to look down at his toes.
"Mom, Dad, where's Sienna?"
At this moment, a tall, stunningly beautiful woman with a worried expression hurriedly walked over.
Sophie, five years ago, was the number one beauty in Cloud City.
She had been busy with a company project for the past three days and hadn't been home. After returning, she heard that her daughter had been brought here and quickly came after them.
"Taken away by Xavier."
After giving a signal to the others, Lucy said angrily, "That worthless Xavier, who knows when he came back, found out we were having dinner here with Sienna, and just barged in, took Sienna away, and even tried to hit people."
"See that cleaning lady? She tried to stop him and got kicked unconscious."
"If we hadn't called security, we might all have been beaten to death by him."
"That guy is simply ungrateful. He was like this five years ago, and now he's even more detestable."
"It's simply too much."
Sophie stood there, stunned, her face pale, "He, he's back?"
For five years, countless days and nights, her longing was like a tide; she had loved, hated, and cried out to the heavens...
She just wanted to ask Xavier why he left on their wedding day. Was the company's assets really more important than her?
However, Xavier left and never returned, leaving her to struggle alone with their daughter, facing her mother's disdain at home, being looked down upon by the elders of the Lewis family, and mocked and targeted by her peers...
All her grievances surfaced, and overwhelmed by sadness and anger, she felt dizzy, spun around, and collapsed.
.......
At the entrance of Cloud City's top hotel, the Tenglong International Hotel, when Xavier walked over with his daughter, Xander was already waiting respectfully on the side.
"Sir, this little girl is..."
Xander looked in surprise at the cute little girl nestled in Xavier's arms, his eyes showing confusion.
For years, Xander had been by Xavier's side, witnessing this man rise to the pinnacle, accustomed to the iron-willed nature of this god-like man, yet it was the first time he saw him gently and cautiously holding a little girl.
"My daughter, Sienna, isn't she adorable?" Xavier's face showed a hint of pride.
Along the way, he teased his daughter, helping the little girl recover from the shock of the hotel scene, giggling in his arms, incredibly cute.
"So cute, she's already so pretty at such a young age, imagine when she grows up," Xander snapped out of his daze, full of admiration.
At that moment, the iron-willed man rubbed his hands together, then extended his hands toward the little cutie, "Sienna, I'm Uncle Xander, may I hold you?"
"No." Little Sienna, somewhat fearful, snuggled into Xavier's embrace.
"Uh..." Xander lowered his head in disappointment, "I knew it, my appearance would scare children."
"Sweet daughter, Uncle Xander is a good person, he's Daddy's brother, will you let him hold you?" Xavier gently said to the little cutie in his arms.
"Well, just for a little while," Little Sienna tilted her little head, thought for a moment, and then said.
"Alright, just for a little while."
Xander was extremely excited, very carefully, as if holding a rare treasure, he picked up the little cutie.
His eyes held a look of determination.
"This is my Northia's little princess, the most noble existence above and below."
"Unique in the world, incomparable!"
"I, Xander, solemnly swear on behalf of the million-strong Northia Legion, from now on, whoever dares to harm the little princess shall face the wrath of a million Northia Legion!"
In this vast world, who could compare to the little princess of the Northia ruler?
"Don't touch Sienna's little foot, it's injured," Xavier said softly.
"What?"
Xander's expression shifted dramatically, carefully inspecting the injury on Sienna's foot, he became furious, "Who dared to harm my Northia little princess?"
