The Exalted Warrior novel Chapter 679

“Mother, I can understand that you consider money to be a very great thing,” began Selena. “And yes, you suffered a lot several years ago. Still, you can’t risk our lives, including Fane’s. What if the martial artists from the Xenos family truly come for us and kill us? Are you really not afraid of death?” Selena felt herself getting heated at the moment. She felt that her mother was too much; that she could not even discern right from wrong.

Nobody expected, however, that Fane would side with Fiona as he spoke, “What Mother said seems to make sense. We can’t give money to Xena.”

Initially criticized and rebuked for her thoughts and opinions, Fiona lowered her head in embarrassment and dared not speak when no one sided with her.

She never expected Fane would take her side on this matter.

Her lips instantly curled into a smile as she proudly remarked, “Look, I’m not the only one who said this. Fane’s saying the same thing, too. We can’t give Xena money!”

Suddenly… “Hey! You people really think you’re that important?!” yelled Cecilia as she stormed from afar. “The Old Master has been waiting for you guys, and for quite some time, too! Why don’t you guys go in? What are you guys still chit-chatting about here? What’s there to talk about? We’re treating you guys to a meal, and you guys are acting important?”

“What are you talking about, Cecilia?” snapped Selena as she rolled her eyes at her. She was in a bad mood; even a well-tempered person had her limits, too.
