In the morning, at the airport. Edwin and Tina waited in front of a Rolls–

Royce Phantom. “Dad, we’ve already been waiting for two hours. Why isn’t Joshua here yet?” Tina glan

ced around, looking anxious.

“It’s normal for flights to be delayed. Let’s wait it out a little longer. Edwin looked calm. Last night, he’d

suddenly received a call from Joshua, saying he’d completed his refinement, which

meant he was now the Hummer family’s trump card.

As they spoke, a young couple exited the airport. The man was handsome and dignified, giving off an a

ir reminiscent of a sharp blade, making one unable to look him in the eye. The woman beside him was

dressed in red and equally outstanding. She was beautiful, elegant, and looked powerful.

“Dad, he’s here!” Tina’s eyes lit up with excitement. She’d been eagerly anticipating his return.

“Josh, you’re finally back!” Edwin approached him with a bright smile.

“Sorry to keep you waiting, Dad.” Joshua smiled and gestured to the woman beside him. “Allow me to i

ntroduce you to Jade Grant, my fiancée.”

“Jade Grant?” Edwin looked taken aback before asking tentatively. “Is she the third daughter of the Gra

nt family?”

“Yes, that’s right.” Joshua smiled.

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Hummer.” Jade nodded.

“Yes, yes, nice to meet you, too. As expected of a daughter of the Grant family–

you’re the very embodiment of beauty and grace!” Edwin looked delighted. He never would’ve expecte

d his son to be able to win the Grant family’s favor. The five wealthiest families in Millsburg were known

as the Fabulous Five, but there were three other families even more powerful than them–

the Tremendous Three. The Grant family was one of them. If the Hummer family could form an alliance

with the Grant family through Joshua’s marriage with Jade, they’d have a bright future ahead!

“Dad, why did you summon me home so urgently? Joshua asked when they were all

in the car. He’d just completed his refinement the night before when he’d

been told to return immediately.

“I hate to say this, but Swinton has

a new kid on the block. He’s powerful beyond our expectations and has defeated all my men. Our famil

y’s been having a tough time recently because of him. I had no choice but to summon you home.” Edwi

n sighed, looking helpless.

“Exactly! You have no idea how obnoxious he is, Joshua. He even beat me up on my birthday over the

smallest

things!” Tina started to complain. “Look at what he did to my arm–

I’ve yet to fully recover! I’ve never been

treated like this in my life. You have to get back at him for me!”

“Who is this guy? How dare he bully a member of the Hummer family!” Joshua’s face darkened, and a

menacing aura surrounded him.

“His name is Dustin Rhys, and he’s not someone to be taken lightly,” Edwin said. “He also has the Har

mon family backing him up.” Edwin said.

“The Harmon family?” Jade chuckled lightly. “They’re only one of the Fabulous Five–

they don’t hold much

“The report says 35 of them,” the burly young man replied.

“I see. Well, get rid of all of them.”
