Nash was terrified when he saw Lyla so angry and muttered, "The other party seemed to be pretty influential in Jade City. Since Harper offended them, he's..."
Before he could finish, Lyla said in a displeasing tone, "I don't care who the hell they think they are. Harper is my son and a member of the Soo family. They will pay for what they did to Harper!"
"I have something else to tend to, so I'll leave Harper to you. Send someone to Jade City and make sure to get Harper back before the annual banquet," Lyla commanded.
She then headed straight to the bedroom without waiting for a reply.
Nash sighed and began making arrangements to send someone to Jade City. He needed to find a solution for his son.
At the same time, something similar happened in the homes of Sonia Yao and Abell Liu. Both of them were enraged and wanted to travel to Jade City personally to settle the score and bring their children home.
At that moment, Fade was heading to the villa prepared by South Bay City's very own real estate tycoon, Andrew Xu.
Andrew welcomed Fade into his villa with great enthusiasm. He arranged for his servants to serve Fade humbly. Fade was taken aback by such hospitality.
During dinner, Andrew brought his daughter along for the meal. He even personally poured wine for Fade continuously. In short, he was being very respectful towards Fade.
Fade was extremely surprised at what was going on.
After all, he didn't know Andrew at all. Their only interaction was back when he sold that Einstein Zheng painting to him, and that was it.
Therefore, Fade was also a bit skeptical as to why Andrew was being so nice to him. He said, "Mr. Xu, thank you for your amazing hospitality, but I have a question if you don't mind."
"Mr. Chen, do tell me. I will do everything in my power to ensure your demands are met," Andrew was really humbling himself before Fade.
Fade continued, "Mr. Xu, I don't understand. We just met, yet you are treating me so kindly..."
Andrew heard that. He put down his cutleries and looked at Fade, telling him, "Mr. Chen, you may not know me, but I have known you for a while. Back at Jade City, I personally witnessed your powerful demeanor on Sunset Mountain."
"Moreover, my real estate company has a lot of business with the Li family of Jade City. I hope that we can have a more successful partnership in the future."
"Hence, it would make sense for me to welcome you with great hospitality when you visit South Bay City."
Fade finally understood what was going on. Andrew knew who he was. He knew that Fade was the infamous Master Chen of Jade City and also the mastermind of the Li family empire. That's why he was being so nice.
"I see!" Fade nodded and said, "I thank you for your kind words. I will definitely return your gracious favors when I have the chance!"
Fade treated Andrew like how a businessman would. It was also sort of a promise that they would be able to mutually benefit from in the future.
Andrew heard Fade's words and his eyes lit up. He excitedly lifted his glass and said, "Thank you so much Master Chen, let me give you a toast!"
After dinner, Fade went back to his room to get some rest.
Surprisingly, Andrew even asked his daughter,
Lauren Xu to serve Fade in his room. She poured Fade some drinks and was extremely polite.
Fade looked at Lauren and said, "Miss Xu, you don' t have to do that. I can do this myself, so you can go take a break."
