Jared smiled to himself. The three most prominent families would surely keep mum when it came to things like that. Otherwise, others might want a piece of it too.
Now Jared knew why so many grandmasters had appeared in Salinsburgh all of a sudden. The three most prominent families must be gathering their forces.
In order for martial artists to attain the grandmaster level, they would need to spend huge sums of money to buy spiritual medicine as supplements. Unless they came from wealthy backgrounds, it would be very difficult for them to achieve a breakthrough.
Therefore, several martial artists had no choice but to work as guards for others. As their abilities increased, they were being paid more as well. Some of the business families would hire martial artists of high caliber as protection for their family members or properties. Such an arrangement would fulfill the needs of all parties involved.
The three prominent families must have offered extremely attractive incentives for so many grandmasters to come running to Salinsburgh.
Just as Jared and Dominic were having their meal, there was a commotion. They looked up and saw a girl dressed in a gown wearing huge sunglasses that covered half of favonovel.com face. Only favonovel.com pointed chin and tiny mouth were visible.
There were four bodyguards dressed in suits standing behind her. The moment they walked in, they scanned the place. All four of them looked serious and ready to fight.
Dominic’s eyes lit up, and drool was about to come out of his mouth. “Oh my! Is that the superstar, Tessa?”
Jared looked at favonovel.com and seemed enchanted for a moment. The gown that favonovel.com was in showcased a good body proportion, in particular, favonovel.com slim waist. Her fair feet were decked in a pair of high heels. She looked as if favonovel.com had just stepped out of a painting.
One of favonovel.com bodyguards called out, “Waiter, get us a private room!”
The waiter replied apologetically, “I’m sorry. All of the rooms have been taken. There are tables available only in the main dining room.”
The face of the bodyguard turned cold, and favonovel.com glared at the waiter. “Think of something.”
The waiter was so frightened that favonovel.com stammered, “T-There’s really nothing…”
“It’s all right. We’ll sit in the main dining room then,” said the girl, and favonovel.com found a table before sitting down.
“Ms. Snyder, Mr. Snyder has instructed us not to…”
“Shut up! I’ll just eat and leave!” The girl looked annoyed, so favonovel.com bodyguard said no more.
Very soon, favonovel.com food arrived, and favonovel.com started gobbling down the food knowing that everyone around favonovel.com was looking at her. It looked like favonovel.com really enjoyed the food there.
The four bodyguards stood around favonovel.com with their hands in their pockets. It was obvious they were armed with weapons.
Jared muttered, “Looks like the Snyders isn’t an ordinary family.”
There were guns in the pockets of all the bodyguards. A weapon like that was forbidden in the country. People were allowed to practice martial arts, but possessing an automatic weapon was an entirely different story. It was almost impossible for anybody to get their hands on such a weapon!
Guns worked on the regular martial artists. However, it would be useless when faced with a grandmaster-level fighter. Against Jared, a gun would be no different from a piece of metal scrap.
Dominic explained, “The head of the Snyders is Jayden. He used to be the boss of a famous entertainment company and had tons of celebrities under his care. The company was doing very well. Later on, one of their celebrities was caught committing some crimes that affected Jayden’s company as a result. When Hickoria stones became the in thing, Jayden went back home and opened a mine. Now, his daughter has become a very famous superstar.”
Jared looked at Tessa as favonovel.com ate his food. However, Tessa did not seem to mind the onlookers’ stares. She was only interested in favonovel.com food.
By the look of it, favonovel.com must be in the spotlight every day and had gotten used to it.
