A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO

Chapter 2008 Midden Potential + "Master? Haha!" Teddy was momentarily stunned before breaking into laughter. "Master, huh? Alright! From now on, we're master and disciple; you're officially my junior!" Sensing Teddy's attempt to grow closer, Gautier quickly seized the opportunity. He poured a cup of tea from the table and, following the traditional gesture, presented it to Teddy in a formal disciple's bow. "Master, please have stea!" "Good, I'll accept this tea!" Teddy took the cup, his expression suddenly becoming serious. "However, letmake something clear: if you turn out to be dull and unfit for this, I won't hesitate to kick you out of my tutelage." "Understood, Master!" Gautier replied, feigning nervousness. He knew that Teddy was intentionally intimidating him into fully dedicating himself to training in the Dragon Tome. Teddy needed someone to test whether the Bechnique was genuine or not. If Gautier couldn't learn it, there would be no way to determine its true power.

☐ That night Teddy, whose martial arts abilities were shockingly advanced personally guided Gautier through the Dragon Ttraining. Teddy was well aware of how extraordinary the technique was, so despite the tense situation around him, he planned to dedicate a few days to mentoring Goutier. However, what Teddy hadn't anticipated was just how quickly Gautier would groso the fundamentals.

Even in his younger days, Teddy doubted he could have learned so quickly.

Gautier, though surprised himself by his newfound martial prowess, kept his composure. He had always known himself to be a prodigy in academic and intellectual fields, using his talents to charm women like Lara Quillen and many others. Like many people, he had once dismissed martial arts as irrelevant in modern society. But as he dimbed higher up the societal ladder, 19:33 Sat, Dec 7 Chapter 2028 Hidden Potential 53% he realized that while martial arts might be of little use to the middle class, for both the lowest and highest tiers of society, it remained a powerful weapon.

"You flatter me, Master. I'm just stumbling my way through this, and I'm actually completely lost on this next part." "Is that so? Letexplain it again," Teddy said, patiently going over the next section. But no matter how thoroughly he explained it, Gautier insisted that he couldn't grasp it.

"Mr. Tanner, do you think my aptitude doesn't meet your standards for an apprentice?" Gautier reverted to his former title and put on a look of fear, as if dreading that Teddy might expel him from his tutelage.

Haha, you're doing fine!" Teddy laughed, stroking his beard.

If Gautier had lived in more chaotic times, he would undoubtedly have risen to beca powerful warlord. It seems the Dragon Tis sound; at least it doesn't lead to madness.

Since you've hit a wall with it, there's no point in continuing the lessons. Go and see if you can obtain the other half of the tome," Teddy instructed. "Yes, Master!" Gautier replied, once again using the title.

With that, the two parted ways, both satisfied with how things had progressed. They each returned to their own pursuits, preparing for what lay ahead.

As Gautier left the Tanner Residence, he clenched his fist, feeling an Overwhelming sense of power. It was almost unbelievable-he felt as though he could shatter a boulder with a single punch.

We know about your efforts in clearing the trade routes of bandits-it's truly inspiring!" "West End has no shortage of heroes, but when it comes to dealing with the Five Poison Sect, we've never been able to beat them. Everyone is afraid of them!" A chorus of voices rang out from the crowd, all circling around three main themes: the Five Poison Sect, the eradication of bandits, and restoring order. Mackenzie could sense the deep-seated frustration the people had with the Five Poison Sect. After all, blocked trade routes meant blocked revenue, and to open those routes again, they needed to eliminate the sect that stood in their way.

"Ladies and gentlemen, let's not waste twith pleasantries. Now, let's invite Ms. Quillen to the stage to give us clear direction!" Ken, acting as the event's host, stepped in to move the evening along.

"Yes, Ms. Quillen, we're all waiting for your leadership!" Chapter 2028 Hidden Potential 53% "If Ms. Quillen leads the charge in forming an alliance to fight the bandits, I'll be the first to join!"

Mackenzie knew the nature of this banquet and was well aware she was being pushed into the spotlight, but to achieve her goals, she had no choice but to ride the momentum.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I know that West End has been from bandit problems for a long time. The reason these bandits have been so hard

to eliminate is because they are backed by the Five Poison Sect. To bring peace to West End, we must first remove the Five Poison Sect!" Mackenzie's opening Chapter 2028 Hidden Potential remarks sparked a tidal wave of support.

"Support Ms. Quillen! Down with the Five Poison Sect!" 0.53% "Lead us, Ms. Quillen, and we'll wipe out the Five Poison Sect's stronghold!" "With Ms. Quillen at the helm, we'll uproot them for good!" 2 The crowd's chants were startlingly unified. They wanted Mackenzie to lead them straight into the heart of the Five Poison Sect's territory and wipe them out once and for all.

Ken watched the scene unfold, his expression darkening slightly. Up until now, he hadn't officially chosen a side. Just a few days ago, Aora approached him, asking him to manipulate Mackenzie into entering the Five Poison Sect's territory. He had played along.

If Mackenzie succeeded in taking down the sect, Ken would align with her. But if she failed and died, it would only make sense for him to help Teddy Tanner by eliminating a major threat. He was making a deal with no risk and only 19:34 Sat, Dec 7 Chapter 2028 Hidden Potential reward.
