“Why can’t you see how wonderful your life would be if you married Mr. Killian? You’d have the whole world
wrapped around your finger!” Florence was exasperated.
“If I want power, I can get it with my hands. I don’t want to get it through marriage.” Dahlia shook her head.
“Dahlia …” Florence sighed resignedly.
“Alright, alright. I guess the fruits of her labor will taste sweeter.” Victoria intervened, but she was secretly happy.
Since Dahlia didn’t like Gavin, Julie might have a chance.
“Look, it’s Mr. Killian!” Julie exclaimed.
Everyone turned toward the door and saw Gavin entering confidently. Wearing a suit, he was followed by a group of

“What brings you here, Mr. Killian?” Florence and several others greeted enthusiastically.
“It’s your birthday, Mrs. Nicholson. It’s only natural that I send my wishes.”

anyway.”
The man was only in his thirties, yet he had a powerful air around him. The murderous aura made it hard for others
to approach him.
“Dustin Rhys is the champion of the Knighthood Society Tournament. He’s stronger than you think!” the aide
warned.
“So what? I can kill him easily,” the long-haired man answered confidently, unfazed.
“Well, with Spike with us, I’m sure nothing will go wrong.” Gavin smiled.
“That guy must have a death wish if he shows up.”
Just as he finished his sentence, there was a loud bang as the door was kicked open.
