Then, it was Zakariah and Skadi from the Jonford Martial Arts Association.


    After Sydney and her father exchanged pleasantries with the guests, they brought them inside the vi.


    At about six o’clock, Zell Vi was already crowded.


    The party would be held on the rooftop, and all four tables were filled.


    Grant even changed into a colorful suit to give a speech with his children.


    On Duncan’s table, The Swordsman was fiddling with his cutlery in boredom.


    His fingers were nimble, and the fork kept moving around between his fingers.


    After he saw how flushed with sess Grant was, he stopped fiddling with the fork and snapped it in


    half.


    The snap attracted Melody’s attention. She turned to look at The


    Swordsman, and a bad feeling arose in her chest.


    When Melody looked at The Swordsman, The Swordsman also peered at her.


    This woman was gorgeous, but she was a little older.


    He still much preferred petite and adorable younger women.


    “Godfather, the governor is here, so please don’t be impulsive,”


    Duncan warned after he saw the snapped fork in the Swordsman hand.


    “Don’t worry. I’m not a brainless and boorish man. Since I’m your godfather, I’ll definitely consider your


    feelings,” The Swordsman said with a grin.


    A smile appeared on Boris’ face.


    He was worried about this just now.


    It seemed that The Swordsman liked this godson a lot. Otherwise, it would be very tough to restrain


    him.


    At that moment, Grant had finished his speech.


    He lifted his ss and said, “I won’t waste everyone’s time anymore./ So, I propose a toast to you all.”


    Everyone stood up with the sses as a show of respect for Grant.


    However, The Swordsman remained in his seat.


    Seeing this, Boris kicked his leg and slowly got up.


    Coincidentally, Grant saw all of this.


    Grant shuddered, and his ss fell onto the ground, smashing into pieces.


    Everyone was curious.


    Jade looked at Brian next to him, feeling deeply worried. “Mr. Tanner, is Mr. Zell sick?”


    Brian shook his head. “His face was flushed, and he sounded resonant in his speech. He’s very


    healthy.”


    Now, Jade was even more concerned.


    How could he not hold a ss properly if he was healthy?


    At Hera’s table, Theo’s bodyguard, Sherman, whispered in his ear.


    Immediately, Theo’s hand that was holding his ss shook. After that, he lifted his head to look at The


    Swordsman.


    Sherman told him that the person was in the Mystique Loyalty Realm, and the other old man was also


    in the Mystique Loyalty Realm.


    His family did not have someone in the Mystique Loyalty Realm, but there were two of them in the


    Duerson family.


    Who were they?


    “My grandpa hurt his wrist a few days ago, so please don’t worry.”


    Sydney poured another ss for Grant and smoothed things over.


    She then quickly walked to Grant and asked softly, “What’s wrong, Grandpa?”


    Grant took the ss with shaky hands and shook his head. “I’m fine.”


    He rposed himself and smiled. “I’m sorry. I’ll drink first as a sign of respect to you all.”


    Once he said that, he downed the contents of his ss absent- mindedly.


    The strong alcohol sessfully suppressed the fear in his heart.


    Jade said in concern, “You should take care of your health, Mr. Zell


    Since Dr. Tanner is here, you should let him take a look at youter.


    Brian smiled and nodded.


    After they drank, they started eating.


    Meanwhile, Grant sat down absent-mindedly.


    It was as if he did not hear the people who were toasting him.


    He was very worried.


    Why was The Swordsman with the Duersons?

    There were so many reputable people here. If The Swordsman.


    suddenly decided to stir trouble, not only would he be embarrassed, but everyone’s safety would be


    <ppromised too.
