Before Wilbur could even say anything, Faye smiled. "Grandpa, this is my boyfriend. Wilbur Penn." Wilbur took the chance to hold the box with the Elixir of Life out. "Grandpa, this is an Elixir of Life. It's great for strengthening your body, and it can even increase your lifespan. I hope you like it." "Get out of here," Asher roared, slapping the Elixir of Life to the ground with a wave of his hand. "Who the hell do you think you are, calling yourself my granddaughter's boyfriend?" Wilbur frowned, and Faye sighed as well. She knew that it was a tough situation and had expected things to go south. However, her grandfather being

so angry and not even giving Wilbur the benefit of the doubt deeply disappointed her.

Wesley picked up the Elixir of Life to get a closer look at it and let out a smirk. "What the hell is this? How dare you lie to us, calling it an Elixir of Life? Do you think we're idiots?" "Look at Mister Yaegar! He was generous enough to gift a real Cezanne painting, and you have the nerve to come up with something like this?" Freddie jeered as well.

Fabian was the only one keeping silent.

He knew how powerful Wilbur actually was and was pretty certain the Elixir of Life was not a fake. If it could really make one live longer, though, it would definitely be worth much more than a mere painting.

Faye sighed. "Wilbur would never lie to you, Grandpa. He's also the boss of Cape International. He more than deserves to marry someone from the Yves family." "I don't give a f*ck about Cape International! He could never compare to Mister Clark, got it?" Asher fumed.

"You're from Eagle City! Have you forgotten that? Get this man to f*ck off, or I'm going to have to make him." Just then, Justin piped up for the first time, his expression dark, "Asher Yves, the Yves family can forget about staying in Eagle City if you don't offer a proper explanation for this." As the first prince of Eagle City, Justin definitely had the power to say something like that. Faye had
