Chapter 6
“Ha
Markus smiled and said nothing.
Of course, he wouldn’t say that cigarettes and lighters came by chance. Instead, he put on a mysterious expression on his
face.
His expression said three words, “Have a guess?”
It seemed that Markus had a considerable sum with him.
Judging from Markus’s appearance, Sebastian thought that he was broke.
A watch that cost thousands, a gold chain, a ring, or even a phone didn’t mean.
The new Sinocomm phone he had just bought cost a little more than 2,000 dollars.
However, a lighter that cost about as much was a different concept altogether.

Sebastian couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Were you really at the Legio Fenricus Commandery for the past eight years?”
Since when could soldiers easily afford lighters that cost 2,000 dollars?
‘Yeali
“Since you’re already there for so long, why did you come back?”
“…I broke some rules and they forced me into retirement.”
Sebastian frowned and glared at Markus, annoyed that he would ruin his future like that.
Being forced into retirement was no different than being asked to resign after making mistakes at a regular job.
“Geez! I don’t even know what to say about you! Did you know how many people I had to meet to get you into the Legio Fenricus Commandery? But look at you! You had a bright future ahead of you, but you ruined it just like that!”
Legio Fenricus Commandery…
It was the Number One Legion of Sinoval!
So many people dreamed of joining it.
The fact that Sebastian could use his connections to get Markus into the Legio Fenricus Commandery had been his pride for the past few years. Moreover, Markus even stayed there for eight whole years!
He figured that Markus must be an officer by now.
He thought that Markus would one day come back dressed in a military uniform.
When that happened, he would be able to bask in Markus’s limelight for a couple of days.
In the end, however…
Markus was forced to retire for breaking the rules!
There were some things that Markus couldn’t explain, so he decided not to.
After a long time, Sebastian could only accept this reality. “When did this happen?”
“One year ago.”
“Then why are you only back now?”
“I wanted to make some money before coming back. Even if I can’t have a glorious comeback, I want to look decent at least.”
“So, do you look decent now?”
“Nope! I’m still the same!”
Sebastian was speechless.
But he softened his tone and replied, “You can’t say that. You can afford Bvlgari and Treasurer, which means that you hadn’t wasted the past year. You’re doing better than me, at least!”
Markus seemed a little guilty. “What if I tell you that this lighter and this pack of cigarettes are everything I own now…”
“Are you kidding me?”
“Ith serious.”
The two stared at each other for a long time.

Sebastian was stunned. He never said he would give Markus his new phone.
Hanyan Manor
In the bedroom
A maddie-aged man was enjoying his beautiful wife’s thoughtful massage.
“That feel so good! Marrying you was the right choice!”
Aaron Winchester stretched his arms.
Samantha St. Claire glared at him playfully. “So you’re saying that marrying me is the same as marrying a senior massage therapist
“Of course not. I married you because I like you!”
“But Genevieve still doesn’t like me. It’s been so many years, but she still hasn’t changed her mind about me.”
Aaron sighed at the mention of his daughter. “She’ll understand how much you care for her one day.”
Samantha was unperturbed Tm used to it.”
Suddenly, she took out her phone and pulled up a photo. “Look, the young man who makes your head hurt is back.”
“Tsk! Who in this city can make my head hurt?”
Aaron, dressed in a pair of grizzly bear pajamas, raised his head and looked up at the ceiling with a lonely face.
As the richest man in Riverside City, he was more or less qualified to say this.
“Give me your phone!”
Then, Aaron reached out for the phone.
Then, he saw the photo on the screen. It was of a young man standing at the exit of Riverside City Airport.
Aaron was stunned. He gnashed his teeth in hatred and said, “Markus… Blackthorn!”
“How do you still recognize him immediately after eight years? You sure remember him well!”
It was rare to see Aaron looking so fierce. Samantha couldn’t help but laugh.
“I can recognize him anywhere! He’s the jerk who hurt my daughter after all! He has some nerve to come back!”
Aaron looked ferocious.
