Looking at Lowell, Harson suppressed his fury and tried to speak calmly, "Mr. Lin, Mr. Chen can't leave."
"He can't leave? Why?" Lowell frowned.
Harson gritted his teeth. "I'm in this state because he beat me. I want accountability or else, he can't leave."
"Ah, this..." Lowell was surprised when he heard this and turned to look at Fade.
Fade didn't deny it and said calmly, "He insulted my friend and wanted to beat us up, so I taught him a lesson."
"This..." Lowell's face sank and he looked awkward.
After all, Harson was the young master of the Hoyte family. Even if the Manson family was powerful, they wouldn't want to simply go against the Hoyte family.
Then, Lowell remembered something and said to Harson, "Mr. Chen is Mrs. Manson's distinguished guest. I have to report the matter to her. Mr. Harson, please wait a minute." "Go ahead, Mr. Lin." Harson nodded before glaring at Fade fiercely.
Fade ignored him and stood by the side calmly.
Meanwhile, Serena grabbed Fade's sleeve tightly as she looked worriedly at him and spoke up, "Fade, what do we do now? Why not we..."
He smiled faintly, gently patted her head, and spoke calmly, "Relax, nothing will happen."
At this time, Lowell had already called Josephine and briefed her on the happenings.
Then, he passed the phone to Harson and said, "Mr. Harson, Mrs. Manson wants to speak to you."
"Okay!" Harson took over the phone and conversed with the other party.
As he spoke, his face kept changing. There was anger and then it slowly subsided before he sighed. "I understand, Mrs. Manson."
Then, he returned the phone to Lowell with a cold expression on his face and said, "I'll let things go for now on Mrs. Manson's account."
"Thank you for understanding, Mr. Harson." Lowell nodded before getting into the car and driving away.
Watching the car gradually disappear, Harson's face was unsightly.
As for Yonas and Raiya, they came up and spoke carefully, "Mr. Harson, are you letting them leave just like that? That b*stard doesn't know what's good for him and beat you. You..."
"Shut up! You don't have the right to talk here. Get lost!" Harson turned around and bellowed, scaring Raiya and Yonas. Their expressions changed instantly and they quickly backed up, not daring to speak anymore.
Following this, Harson stormed out in a rage.
Yonas and Raiya stayed rooted to the spot and looked at the beautiful night view of Losangel City with complex expressions on their faces.
Raiya was puzzled and jealous as she spoke, "I really don't know what luck this Fade has to get the Manson family to back him up. He escaped this time."
Yonas spoke in a low voice, "Escaped? Things aren't that easy. Didn't you see how angry Mr. Harson was? It means that the matter hasn't ended."
"But, the Manson Family..." She was a little confused.
He coldly snorted, "The Manson family is indeed powerful but you must know that Fade is just a guest. Furthermore, he's Mrs. Manson's guest."
"The status of the current Mrs. Manson in the Manson family isn't as high as you think."
Hearing this, her eyes lit up. "You're saying that
"Okay, sorry for the trouble, Mr. Lin." Fade nodded.
He took a sip of tea and sat leisurely on the soft sofa waiting for Josephine's arrival while Serena was a little prudish. She tried a small cake and it tasted very good, so she couldn't help but want to eat a few more.
However, when she saw the environment of the living room and the servants around, she drew back her hand and lowered her head in
embarrassment.
When Fade saw this, he smiled faintly and took a piece of cake and popped it into his mouth before saying to her, "Try this, it's quite good."
Upon hearing this, Serena's face went red. She picked up a piece of cake and started to take small bites.
About five minutes later, Lowell came out accompanying a woman dressed in Chinese attire.
The woman was about forty to fifty years old but she preserved herself well. From her face, one could see that she was a beauty in her younger days.
This was Mrs. Manson, Jeremy's birth mother, Josephine Li.
Before Fade could get up to greet her, Josephine immediately walked over with a smile on her face. She sized him up and said, "You're Fade, right?"
"I'm Fade. Hello, Madam Li." He got up and nodded.
She nodded. "Not bad, not bad. You're a fine young man. No wonder Quin always talks about you."
Fade smiled and asked, "That's right, Madam Li, where is Quin? Why don't I see her?"
