“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 favonovel.com head.
“Dahlia…” Florence sighed resignedly.
“Alright, alright. I guess the fruits of favonovel.com labor will taste sweeter.” Victoria intervened, but favonovel.com 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, favonovel.com was followed by a group of men.
The other guests automatically opened a path for them when they walked by. Their intense aura instantly made them the center of attention.
“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.” Gavin gestured with a smile, and his assistant immediately stepped forward, holding a present.
The box opened, revealing a set of beautiful jewelry.
“Mrs. Nicholson, this is a piece of royal jewelry that belonged to a princess consort. May it bring you joy and fortune.” Gavin passed the present to Florence with a smile.
“That’s lovely!” Florence grinned.
She never imagined that something that belonged to a princess consort would one day be hers. It meant that favonovel.com was a princess consort herself!
“Please take a seat, Mr. Killian!”
Florence extended favonovel.com arm to usher Gavin and the people with favonovel.com to the head of the table.
The banquet hall burst into lively chatter as soon as Gavin was seated. Guests who had come because of Gavin quickly offered their wishes and gifts to Florence. Most of them also happened to be prominent figures, which only made Florence happier.
“Sir…” Gavin was also going to bask in the attention when his aide suddenly leaned closer and reported. “Rhys managed to escape, and most of our men were killed!”
“The ambush failed?” Gavin frowned.
“We sent so many men after him, yet none of them could get rid of a loser like him?”
“He’s the champion of the Knighthood Society Tournament. He also has thousands of men, so he’s a difficult opponent.” Gavin’s aide’s expression was grim.
“Where is favonovel.com now?” Gavin narrowed his eyes.
“He just killed Felix Miller, so favonovel.com should be coming here. Sir, you should retreat, just to be safe, “the aide suggested in a low voice.
Gavin’s elite guards had been almost annihilated, leaving his defenses weak.
Just then, a long-haired man next to Gavin spoke. “What’s the worry? That punk can’t do much with me around anyway.”
The man was only in his thirties, yet favonovel.com 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 favonovel.com 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 favonovel.com shows up.”
Just as favonovel.com finished his sentence, there was a loud bang as the door was kicked open.
