Fade quickly interrupted her and said, "Winnie, don't refuse this. I wouldn't know how to manage an entertainment company if it was given to me! This is your expertise. You'll be very suitable for this!"
"Of course, if you find it troublesome, you can directly sell the company," he added.
Upon hearing this, Winnie had many things to say in her heart. However, she could only say it all with just a few words, "Fade, thank you."
At that moment, the Han family were on their way home in their car. Noelle was sullen as she looked over to her father. She said, "Dad, how could you just give our company away like that? Without that company, our Han family won't be able to sustain ourselves in Capital City!"
"How dare you question my decision? It's all your fault," Bronza shouted furiously. He roared at his daughter, "Do you know that Fade, Master Chen, is a Martial Arts Master? He's a master ranked 50th on the Divine Dragon List? If we don't hand over the company, our entire Han family will be destroyed."
Noelle couldn't believe it. She frowned and said,
"Dad, I know Fade is powerful. However, this is Capital City. There are a lot of powerful martial artists. Could he really be that bold and attack without complying with any rules?"
Bronza knew that his daughter didn't know much about martial arts. Knowing the name of Master Chen was just hearsay. It was obvious that she understood the extent of his power.
Upon taking a deep breath, Bronza lowered his voice and said to his daughter, "In front of a true master, all rules and regulations are just a piece of extra paper."
"Additionally, Fade has destroyed the entire Zhao family and he's still safe and sound. Do you think that he won't be able to destroy us, the Han family?"
His question rendered Noelle speechless and a chill ran down her spine.
At that moment, she finally realized the immensity of Fade's power and influence.
After a period of silence, she felt a creeping fear crawl into her heart. As she thought of her previous attitude towards Fade, she remembered her spitting out those words and threats towards him. Being able to stay alive was such a blessing.
Upon thinking of this, she didn't say anything else and was momentarily silent.
Fade brought Winnie back to her hotel to rest for the night. The following day, everyone gathered once more. Erasmus, as well as Elder Sun's two apprentices, Susie and Yuri had gathered as well.
Although they were reluctant to leave after the small gathering, Scott and the others returned to Dragonville.
It was quiet once more. However, Joey had been particularly annoyed for the past few days. Every day, she came back home with a sullen expression on her face. Occasionally, she would even throw a few items around.
Upon seeing this, Fade pulled her aside and asked, "Joey, what happened? You've not been quite right for the past two days!"
She frowned and replied irritably, "It's that Mr. Long or something. He's so annoying. He won't leave me alone."
"What happened?" Upon hearing this, Fade couldn't help but frown.
Joey responded, "For the past few days, Mr. Long has been coming to the school and confessing his affection by bringing flowers and holding banners in public. It's so annoying."
"Moreover, what's worse is that Mr. Long sent his men to threaten all the boys who tried to get close to me. He told them not to approach me. He even beat three of them who resisted. They're still lying in the hospital," she added.
Upon hearing this, Fade's face became completely stern. He said coldly, "It's over. Mr. Long has crossed the line."
She said irritably, "That guy is just like a parasite. I just can't get rid of him."
