Chapter_537
Duncan placed a hand on the woman’s head as he closed his eyes.
The Watson family was devastated.
They had not received reports of anything odd from the hospital.
It was essentially confirmed that Kai was dead.
To prevent things from going awry, they instructed several of their men to keep an eye on Kai until his
body was sent to the crematorium.
At the Zell family’s home, Dylan Morkov and Grant Zell were in the midst of a pleasant conversation.
“Oh, that’s right. Has Ben joined the National Martial Bureau yet?”
Grant recalled Dylan had a grandson named Bennett Morkov.
The young man had always been good-looking.
He was probably one of Capiton’s most handsome young talents now.
His granddaughter was graduating from university soon, so it was almost time for her to begin
considering marriage.
Dylan said disappointedly, “That little bastard is not interested in martial arts… He started a business of
his own after graduating from university, and he’s running his company now!”
“Well… Going into business is a good idea as well. Ben is so smart.
There’s no doubt he’ll become one of the most successful businessmen in the future!”
A disappointed look appeared in Grant’s eyes when he heard that Bennett was a businessman.
His family was already influential enough when it came to business dealings.
What he needed was a marriage that could bring him connections to the political sphere.
Only by combining forces with another powerful family would the Zell family successfully secure an
even more stable position.
Dylan naturally knew what Grant was thinking. He sipped his tea and rearranged his features into a
disappointed look as he said, “Your know how it is. Given my.connections, the Ten Families of Capiton
are always looking for opportunities to work with him. He won’t have a chance to learn how to stand on
his own two feet!”
A glint instantly appeared in Grant’s eyes when he heard that. “Hahaha
Talented individuals will always be recognized and provided with opportunities wherever they go…
“The fact that Ben can bring the Ten Families together is a testament to his social skills. That’s a huge
must when doing business!”
Grant understood what his former classmate was trying to tell him.
He wanted him to know that Bennett could make a name for himself without receiving help from
anyone.
Dylan smiled and glanced at Sydney, who was staring into space.” Does Sydney have a boyfriend yet?”
“No…
“She’s never dated!” Grant hurriedly added.
Bennett was rubbing shoulders with Capiton’s Ten Families, and his grandfather was also a high-
ranking official in the National Martial Bureau.
Besides, he needed his former classmate’s help in his plan for revenge.
He had to make sure they stayed on good terms.
Fred Zell could tell where things were headed.
Since both parties were interested in discussing marriage, he grinned and said, “Dad… I think it’d be
nice if Sydney and Ben tried dating each other!”
When Dylan and Grant heard that, they first exchanged stunned looks before smiling.
Grant grinned as he asked, “What do you think, Sydney?”
Sydney had not been paying attention to them.
It had been 40 minutes since she spoke to Nash on the phone.
According to her calculations, he would be arriving very soon.
She had no idea what would happen next.
“Sydney!”

Frank frowned as he called her name out.
“Ah… Sure… Sounds good!”
Jolted back to reality, Sydney gave a hollow laugh as she nodded.
The smile on Dylan’s face grew even wider.
A relieved smile appeared on Grant’s face.
“Dad… would Nash really come to see us?”
A worried look appeared in Fred’s eyes as he gazed out at the night sky.
Nash had just destroyed the Black Tiger Hall earlier that day, but neither the Inspection Office nor any
other ministries had even made a peep. It was evident the connections he had made in the Northern
Territory were doing their job.
“Don’t worry. My men are stationed around the mansion… If he dares come here, I’ll make him regret
his decision!”
Dylan smiled confidently.
Fred asked hesitantly, “Mr. Murphy, if I may ask… what level of cultivation have you achieved?”
Dylan grinned. “Peak Profound Reality Realm… I’ll be breaking through to the Mystique Loyalty Realm
soon!”
Gosh…
Fred drew in his breath.
Peak Profound Reality Realm…
He had heard previously that Nash and the Hidden-Ghost Juggernaut had drawn a truce during their
battle at Zakariah’s martial arts school.
The Hidden-Ghost Juggernaut had achieved mid-level Profound
Reality Realm then, which meant Nash’s abilities probably fell around that same range too.
If Mr. Murphy had achieved peak Profound Reality Realm, what upper hand would Nash have in the
fight for the Antarctic Lotus? That was the item his mother had left behind for his dad.
Sydney could not bring herself to feel any joy when she heard that
Dylan had achieved peak Profound Reality Realm.
After spending some time with Nash, she concluded that he was actually a pretty nice person. His one
flaw was that he was rather arrogant and consistently acted like there was no one above him.
Yet, she could not bring herself to blame Nash. He had achieved such. high levels of cultivation at such
a young age. She was sure she would be even more arrogant than he was if she were in his shoes.
“It’s almost 11 o’clock. I don’t think he’ll be dropping by, will he?” Fred asked as he glanced at the
gates.
“Hmph… He must have gotten scared after hearing how powerful my old classmate is!” Grant sneered.
“Haha… You’re too kind… Some of my men are Profound Reality Realm experts too… It’s only
reasonable that he can’t make his way in!”
Dylan spoke nonchalantly.
When he finished his sentence, a contemptuous laugh rang out.
“Hah… Mr. Calcraft is here!”
