"D*mn it, so you chose the hard way!" The butler was furious. With a snap, he smashed the young man's head on the ground and threatened him fiercely, "Boy, if you don't sign it, I'll get someone to hurl you into the well. When the time comes, I'll catch your sister to pay the debt, and the result will still be the same."
"You-" The youth was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood.
His eyes were scarlet. He struggled to get up from the ground and pounced on the mustachioed butler. "I'll kill you."
The butler was caught off guard and became angry and anxious. He shouted, "Beat him! Beat him! Beat him to death!"
The group of guards surrounded the youth and gave him a few punches and kicks.
At this moment, an invisible force flew over and bounced the guards away. They fell to the ground and fainted.
Then, a figure walked over.
"Who are you? How dare you meddle in the affairs of the Tong Mansion the mustachioed butler roared.
But before he could finish his words, he felt his neck tighten and the rest of the words stuck in his throat. His body stiffened and he stood still.
The young man, whose face was bruised from the beating, slowly raised his head at this moment. He was involuntarily startled when he saw this scene. After which, his eyes landed on Fade. He cupped his hands together and said, "Sir, thank you for your help."
After saying this, the young man paused, gritted his teeth, and continued, "I need your help. But I'm a member of the Chinese, and I may get you into trouble. So it's better for you to leave as soon as possible."
Originally, the young man had already expected that the other party would change his expression and leave.
But he didn't expect that the man in front of him didn't change his expression after hearing this. Instead, he showed a smile and took the initiative to come over and help him up. "So what if you're a member of the Chinese!"
"By the way, what's your name? What's going on?"
Stunned, the young man stared at Fade for a few seconds, as if he could not believe that such a thing would happen.
After a while, he came to his senses and quickly replied to Fade respectfully, "Sir, my name is Trevor Liu."
"I'm a temporary worker. I've been doing odd jobs in the Tong Mansion during this period of time. A few days ago, I brought my younger sister here to help out because of the overwhelming chores. However, I didn't expect that the First Young Master of the Tong Mansion, Klein, fell in love with my younger sister and shamelessly requested to buy her."
"I didn't agree. As a result, when I was working today, I was slandered by Klein for stealing the jade pendant. He asked for compensation, and if I couldn't afford it, I should sell my sister to pay off the debt. If I refused to obey, they would attack me."
After listening to Trevor's story, Fade's eyes darkened. He looked at the mustachioed butler and asked coldly, "Is this what happened?"
"Nonsense —" The mustachioed man instinctively wanted to curse and deny it.
But as Fade's eyes darkened, he felt a chill all over his body. An indescribable fear enveloped his body and made him tremble all over. He had to tell the truth.
"Th-that is what happened."
"However, it's not our Mr. Tong who likes that little girl. It's Mr. Jamaira Qi who likes her. Mr. Tong did it for him."
"Jamaira who?" Fade frowned.
The butler said, "Jamaira Qi is the young master of the Qi family in West Region City. The Qi family is the biggest merchant in our city. They are rich and have countless shops.
They control almost half of the business in our city."
"In order to curry favor with Mr. Qi, Mr. Tong invited him home. I saw him by accident, so..."
Hearing this, Fade recalled the information he had just heard in the restaurant.
