Harold saw how Quintus was about to hug him emotionally, so he quickly held up his hands to stop Quintus.

“What is the matter with you? Why can you not walk straight? Did you not answer my call just now because you were messing around with that actress?” Harold asked in a displeased tone.

The passersby jumped in alarm when they heard the tone Harold talked to Quintus in. That is the most powerful man in underground circles around the world!

However, they soon realized what was going on after hearing Quintus' response.

Quintus shivered, and he almost pooped his pants when he saw Harold's unhappy expression. “I am innocent, Mr. Campbell! I knew you were coming today, and I would not have slacked off no matter what! It is just that something I ate this morning is causing me to have food poisoning. I have been stuck in the restroom since the morning, and my knees have even gone weak!” Quintus quickly explained himself.

“Pfft!”

Marilyn, who was behind Harold, could not hold back her laughter when she heard what Quintus said.

Marilyn was on cloud nine at that moment, and her gloomy feelings from before had completely dissipated. It turns out that Harold was telling the truth. He really knows Quintus. Based on how scared Quintus is of Harold, it is safe to assume that Harold was the man who defeated the underground forces back then. Isabella and I have misunderstood Harold all this while. However, since Harold is already such an influential man, why did he need to lie to Isabella and tell her he was God of War? Although he is not as incredible as God of War, he is still one of the most powerful men in the world! Could it be that he knew Isabella had always been secretly in love with the legendary God of War?

Marilyn's gaze turned complicated the moment Isabella popped up in her mind.

Meanwhile, Quintus, who was used to being respected wherever he went, was not happy when he heard someone laughing at him. Therefore, he instinctively glared at Marilyn, and she was startled.

As soon as Quintus did that, he was frightened. Wait! This girl came with Mr. Campbell, no? She could be Mr. Campbell's girl!

With that in mind, his face became as pale as a sheet. “I am so sorry, Ma'am. I did not do that on purpose. Please be magnanimous and do not take my action to heart!” Quintus apologized.

Marilyn was startled once again. He is a powerful man in underground circles, and he is apologizing to me! Is this really happening? I am merely an actress!

Marilyn was flattered beyond words. Nevertheless, she knew Harold was the only reason Quintus treated her respectfully.

Even so, she was delighted with Harold's status in society.

Simultaneously, she was glad about the way Quintus addressed her.

The staff and influential people on Hishwick Island at the scene were flabbergasted by Quintus' behavior because he was incredibly humble. He is the man who controls the world's underground forces. Why is he acting so humble? This is unbelievable!
