LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

As the voices of the crowd outside reached him, a look of shock spread across Matthew Simpson’s face.

“What’s going on? The people from Mycintia want to see Mr. Chester? Which Mr. Chester? Jun Chester?”

At this moment, Matthew Simpson was completely dumbfounded.

The couple, Riordan and Wells, were equally stunned, along with Matthew Simpson.

Marie Spears, the heiress of the Spears family, had already quickly moved to the window.

Seeing the scene outside, Marie Spears was shocked to the core.

Hundreds of men, women, old and young, were all kneeling on the ground.

Harry Mills also quickly came to the window. Seeing the scene outside, his eyeballs nearly popped out.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Of all the hundreds of people outside, Harry Mills recognized only two or three.

One of them, a middle-aged man in his fifties, had once taught Harry Mills fencing.

Harry Mills knew who he was.

Harry Mills had encountered him a few years ago and had taken this master as the goal of his life’s pursuit.

Of course, this pursuit was not for the master himself, but for his swordsmanship!

One day, Harry Mills also wanted to reach his level of swordsmanship!

But now, this master could only kneel in the fourth row among the crowd outside.

That is to say, in Mycintia, such a super practitioner like him is not even at the top!

It is conceivable that this practitioner, who Harry Mills has been pursuing all his life, is now kneeling outside, begging for a meeting with Jun Chester. How terrifying must Jun Chester’s strength be…

At this moment, Harry Mills almost forgot to breathe. It was incomprehensible…

What had Jun Chester done when he visited the Chronicle Club, to make so many practitioners from Mycintia kneel and beg for a meeting?

At this time, Matthew Simpson had also come to the window.

Seeing the scene outside, he was so excited that he was almost in tears!

Because among the crowd outside, he only recognized one or two people. But those two people he knew were now kneeling at the very back of the crowd from Mycintia.

What on earth was going on?

What did Jun Chester do to make the many practitioners of Mycintia so… polite!

Weren’t the people of Mycintia supposed to challenge the Simpson family?

It seems now… they came to beg for mercy?

The old butler of the Simpson family had also come to Matthew Simpson’s side. Seeing the scene outside, he was so shocked that he began to tremble.

At this moment, Matthew Simpson gave the old butler a disbelieving look and asked, “What exactly was the content of the call from the Chronicle Club just now?”

The old butler said, “The other party just said that they wanted to visit our house. Who could have imagined that they would kneel as soon as they arrived?”

Matthew Simpson then came back to his senses, turning his head to look at Jun Chester.

To his surprise, Jun Chester was already sitting on the sofa, looking indifferent, as if nothing had happened.

What’s even more outrageous is that his daughter, Sandra Simpson, also appeared as if nothing had happened, standing behind Jun Chester, massaging his shoulders.

As for the woman he previously mistook as a person from Mycintia, she was now serving tea to Jun Chester!

Matthew Simpson opened his mouth, but he could not utter a single word.

However, he saw that Bruce Wells, of course, had also come to the window. Seeing the scene outside, he did not look as shocked as Matthew Simpson and the others. Instead, he acted as if he was used to it. After taking one look outside, he returned to Jun Chester’s side.

Bruce Wells said, “Master, all those people outside are kneeling on the ground begging you to come out.”

Jun Chester casually said, “I don’t want to give these thankless people face. You go down and tell them that I’m busy. Oh, and by the way, tell them that they still have to pay the rent they owe me.”

Bruce Wells nodded respectfully and said, “Yes, Master.”

With that, Bruce Wells went downstairs. He came to the front of Hanker Clayborne and the others, and directly dropped a line.

“Here to pay the rent? Then hurry up. As for wanting to see my master, forget it. My master says he doesn’t want to give face to your thankless bunch!”

“…”

“…”

“…”

Once Bruce Wells’ words came out, everyone present twitched their faces.

Upon hearing these words, the likes of Matthew Simpson upstairs were scared out of their wits, especially Harry Mills. He was now considered a disciple of Bruce Wells. Seeing his master act in such a way, he was simply shocked beyond belief.

Even though Harry Mills had been beaten up by Bruce Wells before, he had already generally understood Bruce Wells’ actual strength. Compared to the people outside, Bruce Wells couldn’t possibly be a match for any of them. Now, Bruce Wells was actually leveraging Jun Chester’s personal power and speaking so blatantly in front of these people? Was he tired of living?

Just as Harry Mills was thinking this, the man in the lead, Hanker Clayborne, surprisingly bowed respectfully to Bruce Wells and said, “In that case, I and the others… are intruding on Mr. Chester! As for the rent of the Chronicle Club…”

At this point, Hanker Clayborne hesitated a bit and asked, “Does Mr. Chester want money? Or something else? Anything that Mycintia has, Mr. Chester can take at will.”

Upon hearing this, Bruce Wells was a bit indecisive. He turned his head and shouted upstairs, “Master, they’re asking you what you want? Money or goods!”

Jun Chester ignored Bruce Wells.

Bruce Wells scratched his head, then turned to Hanker Clayborne and said, “We’ll take goods. Money is just paper, we’re not lacking.”

Hanker Clayborne looked embarrassed, thinking left and right. The vast Mycintia had nothing worth showing off! There was a place in Mycintia that had many rare treasures, but… distant water can’t quench near thirst!

At this moment, a middle-aged man not far behind Hanker Clayborne, the master swordsman, suddenly proposed to Hanker Clayborne, “Master, we have some properties in the mundane world. How about we use those properties to offset the rent of the Chronicle Club?”

“What properties?” Hanker Clayborne asked.

The master thought and said, “I’m not very clear. Our Mycintia has many properties in the mundane world. Yes, there’s a company called Cross Investment. It’s very famous in the mundane world. How about we give this company to Mr. Chester?”

Hanker Clayborne, a lofty hermit, naturally didn’t know about these business matters.

However, when Matthew Simpson and Riordan Wells on the second floor of Simpson Villa heard the words ‘Cross Investment’, they were dumbfounded. One of the top ten in the world, Cross Investment, was Mycintia’s property? Now… Mycintia was going to give such a super financial group to Jun Chester?

You should know that neither the Wells family’s Lordran Mining nor the Simpson family’s Simpson Group, even if combined, couldn’t match one-tenth of Cross Investment’s wealth!

Just then, Hanker Clayborne turned to Bruce Wells and awkwardly said, “Is Cross Investment enough to settle the rent? If it’s not enough…” He then turned to the others and asked, “Are there any other decent companies?”

The master swordsman thought and wryly said, “I… I don’t know.”

Eloise Hawson suddenly proposed, “Bank of Mycintia and Mycintia Auction House are also our Mycintia’s properties. Adding these two companies should be enough.”

Hanker Clayborne nodded, looked at Bruce Wells again, and asked, “May I ask, is this acceptable?”

Bruce Wells, who was inexperienced in the world, of course, didn’t know what these three companies Hanker Clayborne and others mentioned meant. He reluctantly said, “Alright, it’s just a bit of rent. My master is so generous, I’m sure he won’t nitpick over this small matter.”

Upon hearing these words, Riordan Wells and Matthew Simpson on the second floor nearly fainted. As for Marie Spears of the Spears family… her mind was completely blank.

Cross Investment, Bank of Mycintia, Mycintia Auction House… Which one of these companies isn’t an astonishing entity? Compared to any of these three companies, her family’s Spears Group was nothing!

Now, all three companies belonged to Jun Chester?

Just then, Jun Chester’s phone suddenly rang. It was Lyvia calling, asking Jun Chester to accompany her shopping. Jun Chester readily agreed, then said to Sandra Simpson next to him, “You help me collect the rent, I’m going to accompany my wife shopping now.”

After speaking, Jun Chester got up and left, leaving everyone in a state of chaos.
