Wilbur chuckled. “I’ve told you not to get violent with me, or you’ll regret it.”

“Don’t listen to him, Blake. Fighting with someone like him will only taint your value. Let’s go.” Yvonne glared at Wilbur in disdain as she pulled Blake away.

Before leaving, Blake said, “Just you wait, bastard. I’m not done with you yet. You’re so dead when I have the time.”

“That’s fine with me,” Wilbur replied with a smile.

The pair left with their bodyguards with their heads held high, swaggering away.

Wilbur shook his head and mumbled to himself, “I’m looking forward to your wedding too.”

Having said that, he drove back to the house at Castlebury. After parking his car at the entrance, he cast a glance around the area and decided that he should look around and familiarize himself with the area.

The neighborhood was a pretty big one with a central garden. The garden alone was around two hundred acres, almost the size of a public park.

Wilbur reminisced on his life as he strolled about in the garden.

His parents had mysteriously disappeared when he was a young boy, leaving him in his grandfather’s care. His Dragonsoul awoke when he was sixteen, and he inherited a wide set of ancient skills.

He then went abroad, forming the Abyss Mercenaries and amassing a fortune for himself.

Upon dissolving the Abyss Mercenaries, he founded the Cape Consortium before returning to his old home in Seechertown to get married.

He did all that, only to be abandoned and humiliated instead of living a happy life in love.

Just as he was reminiscing, a voice called out from behind him, “Stop! Don’t come any closer.”

Wilbur looked up and saw a hunky man clad in a black suit blocking his way.

In front of him was a young, beautiful girl in her twenties helping an old man walk.

Wilbur frowned. “Why? Do you own this place?”

“No, but keep your distance,” The hunk said emotionlessly.
