Invincible Heir

In the King Hall on the top floor of Spring Garden Restaurant, Baron sat at the head of the table, while Edward and Susan sat on both sides of him, one on the left and the other on the right. There were delicate dishes and several bottles of expensive wine on the table.

Edward poured two glasses of wine and handed one to Baron. then he stood up and said, "Mr. Owen, I invite you here today to express my thanks to you."

"You had saved my daughter, when someone tried to assassinate her at the gate of the Lewis Manor!"

"Last week, on the way to Kato, Susan was assassinated again. You saved her again!"

"And then, it was you who told us it was the Woods family that wanted to assassinate Susan."

At this time, Susan also raised her glass and said gratefully, "Baron, thank you!"

Baron came here to make relationships with the Lewis family. Now that Sarah had become the general manager of the Spring Garden Restaurant, of course, Baron would show respect for Edward. "You're welcome, Mr. Lewis!"

He also raised his glass, stood up and said, "Susan is my wife's best friend. Now that I have met her, I can't just leave her in danger!"

Edward felt flattered. He originally thought Baron would be cold to him, but actually, Baron respected him much.

"Haha, Mr. Owen, that's very kind of you. Susan, why don't you toast Mr. Owen. Cheers!"

Edward laughed and drank half a glass of wine in one gulp.

However, Susan felt a sense of loss. Baron saved her not because she was Susan, but because she was Tracy's best friend. Since she was saved by Baron at the gate of the Lewis Manor last time, she fell in love with Baron at the first sight.

But when she thought that Baron was the husband of her best friend, she had to suppress her feelings.

But later, she found that she couldn't control her feelings at all. On the contrary, her feelings became more and more intense. Later, Baron saved her on the way to Kato. She realized that she had fallen in love with a man who didn't belong to her. Thinking of this, Susan felt even more disappointed. She also drank up the wine with Edward.

All the people here had their own thoughts when they had this meal together.

Edward was eager to get close to Baron Owen. Susan was upset because she loved the husband of her best friend but knew she couldn't get him. Sarah was grateful. And Baron tried to win over the Lewis family.

"Mr. Owen, the Wilson family is not easy to deal with. Since you humiliated that woman in public today, the Wilson family will definitely fight back."

Edward suddenly reminded Baron, and then continued, "But don't worry. If the Wilson family really dares to do anything to you, the Lewis family will be your most reliable ally."

Baron smiled disdainfully, "I'm still worried that the Wilson family won't fight back!"

He had been thinking about dealing with the Wilson family all the time. After he knew that the Wilson family started selling women, he had listed the Wilson family on his blacklist. He would definitely destroy the Wilson family as soon as he prepared well.

Of course, Edward knew that if the Wilson family dared to hurt Baron, they would have no choice but to die.

But when he thought of the mysterious force behind the Wilson family, Edward still reminded Baron, "Mr. Owen, don't underestimate the Wilson family. In Cona, the Wilson family is known as one of the four families, at the same level as the Lewis, the Brown, and the Davis. However, the Wilson family is the most mysterious family. The overall strength of the Wilson family was likely far more powerful than the other three!"

"Oh?"

Baron was a little surprised. He suddenly remembered that behind the Wilson family, there was a network that sent women to all the forces of Jako.

"Is there any powerful support behind the Wilson family?"Baron asked.

Edward nodded and said in a deep voice, "The support of the Wilson family is too mysterious. It has never appeared in so many years."

"The Davis family has a good relationship with the MacGill family in Jako. The Brown family, as one of the four, relies on their own strength. And my family, the Lewis, became powerful just because of the help of the old butler of the Owen family, Steward."

"Only the Wilson family is unfathomable and has a mysterious backer. Besides, the Wilson family involves a lot of industries. The rough estimate is that the fixed assets of the Wilson family far exceed that of the Lewis family!"

"In fact, the real richest in Cona should be the Wilson family. But I don't know why the Wilson family has announced to the public that the assets of the Wilson family are only the lowest among the four." Hearing what Edward said, Baron frowned.

It was not that he was frightened by the Wilson family, but that all indicated that the Wilson family had a strong background.

He even guessed that the backer of the Wilson family was the force that sent women to the Wilson family.

If that was the case, it meant that most of the profits of the Wilson family would be handed over to its backer.

In this way, it could be explained that the fixed assets of the Wilson family clearly surpassed that of the Lewis family, but the financial resources were the lowest of the four in Cona.

And its backer not only sent women to the Wilson family, but also other families in Jako.

There might even be such a deal in other cities.

Then how many families like the Wilson family were there in Nona?

Each family would give more than half of the profits to this force. How much would all the families send to this force in total?

To have such a huge amount of money, even the famous family in Jako was far from enough. Only the eight families in Donas could be able to do that.

If that was the case, then things would be difficult.

"Mr. Owen?"

Noticing that Baron didn't respond, Edward called him cautiously.

Baron came to his senses and asked, "You mean you even have no information about the backer of the Wilson family, right?"

Edward shook his head bitterly and said, "I really know nothing about it!"

Baron nodded. Even the Lewis family couldn't get the information about the mysterious force. It could only prove that this force had been good at protecting itself.

"It's almost time. We should go now."

Baron took a look at his watch. It was already nine o'clock. Tracy and Lara were still waiting for him at home, so he stood up and said goodbye.

"Sure, Mr. Owen, it's a good feast. Oh, from now on, once there is something you need me to do, please let me know."

Edward said with a smile. He was very satisfied with the dinner tonight.

He and Susan escorted Baron to the entrance of the restaurant. They didn't leave until they saw Baron leave.

On their way back, Edward's face was full of joy. He laughed and said, "Susan, thanks to you this time. Otherwise, who knows when our Lewis family will be able to make friends with Mr. Owen?" Susan was not in the mood, and there was a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

"Why do you look so upset? Do you know who Mr. Owen is? He is..."

When Edward was about to tell Susan the relationship between Baron and the Owen family, he suddenly thought of Baron's hostility to the Owen family. He quickly stopped his unfinished words. "Susan, from now on, you must try to get in touch with Mr. Owen more often."

Bright lights flashed through Edward's eyes. He suddenly said, "if you can become his woman, then the Lewis family will be more and even more powerful in the future!"

Susan shook her head bitterly. "Dad, I'm a little tired. Wake me up when we get home!"

After saying that, Susan leaned against the back of the comfortable seat to rest.

On the other side, Baron had just arrived at the villa area of the Carlshire Hills. When he was about to pass the road leading to the Peak Hotel, a black figure suddenly appeared in front of him and blocked his way in the middle of the road.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
