Todrick gave Skylar a disdainful look. He did not necessarily have to gift Amanda Fitz the scarf, but
when he saw Yulia, he was reminded of the event last night. He had to regain the face he lost
yesterday. Moreover, he wanted to impress a beauty like Amanda. His desire for revenge only grew
stronger when he saw Skylar.
Hearing Todrick’s words, Skylar raised his eyebrows and sneered, “Is the young master of the Whitlock
family that impressive? I don’t care if the entire Whitlock family is in front of me. Since my wife had the
scarf first, no one in this world can take it away from her.” He pulled Yulia into his arms and assumed a
confident attitude while speaking. Her heart melted when Skylar stood up and protected her.
“Get me the bill.” Without waiting for Todrick to respond, Skylar took out his credit card and handed it to

The crowd of onlookers had incredulous expressions.
“Does this young man know how powerful the Whitlocks are? How dare he argue with the young
master of the family?”
“How dare he offend the Four Great Families? He’s risking his life for a scarf.”
“He must be insane! He doesn’t know his place in the world!”
They looked at Skylar like he was an idiot, certain that today was his death anniversary.
Todrick did not expect Skylar to dare argue with him after the events of last night. He bellowed, “I
decided to let you off yesterday because of Amanda. Do you think I’m a pushover? You should know
your place or don’t blame me for being nasty!”
Todrick’s eyes flashed with malice as he spoke. He was born with a silver spoon and was used to being
arrogant and domineering in Cloudtopia. No one was allowed to humiliate him, especially not in front of
his goddess!
“So, you want to kill me?” Skylar challenged.
How dare a mere nobody from the Whitlock family threaten me? With a single command, I can make
the entire Whitlock family disappear from this world. Todrick Whitlock should be the one to know his
place. What an arrogant man!
Todrick hissed, “It’d be so simple for the Whitlock family to get rid of a country bumpkin like you.”
Suddenly, a distinct, angry voice yelled, “Shut up, Todrick!”
Everyone turned to look at the source of the noise and saw a stunning woman in a black dress
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmapproaching them.
It was Delilah Whitlock.
Someone asked, “Who’s she? How dare she ask the Whitlock family’s young master to shut up? She’s
so cocky!”
Another cautioned, “Stop talking! This is Delilah Whitlock, Mr. Whitlock’s favorite granddaughter. She
has more shares than the main family.”
“Does this mean that she wields more power than the young master of the Whitlock family?”
“Of course! Why else would she dare to reprimand Todrick Whitlock in public?”
Everyone was now looking at Delilah with a look of astonishment. They could not figure out why she
appeared suddenly or why she scolded Todrick without knowing what was going on.
The woman seemed oblivious to the public’s scrutiny as she made her way to Skylar. “Mr. Stone!” In
front of the crowd, she gave Skylar a respectful bow.
Everyone was perplexed by her actions. What’s happening? Why is Delilah Whitlock, one of the more
powerful members of the Whitlock family, bowing to an ordinary young lad?
