Mrs. and Mr. Smith novel Chapter 819

Chapter 819: Chapter 819: The Secret of the Scripture Pavilion

Ethan Smith followed behind Ricardo Bowman, walking in a certain direction.

On the way, Ricardo Bowman couldn’t help but express his doubts, “Mr. Smith, is it true that you killed Ms. Hayward?”

Ethan Smith glanced at him, shaking his head and saying, “No.”

“Mr. Smith has always kept a low profile.” Darnell Bradley said with a smile on the side.

Ethan Smith did not explain, because he knew no explanation would be useful.

During the conversation, they arrived at a pavilion.

There was a stone table in the pavilion, and people had already taken up all the seats.

Young dandies from the aristocratic families of Capital City had almost all gathered here.

Besides Ricardo Bowman and Darnell Bradley, people like Brian Bradley, Blaise Rhodes, Daphne Green, and Emmett Middleton had all gathered here.

Ethan Smith couldn’t help furrowing his brows.

He subconsciously glanced at Ricardo Bowman, seeming to understand the intentions of these people.

It was clear that these people had recognized Ethan Smith, and wanted to pull him into their so-called circle.

“Mr. Smith!” Seeing Ethan Smith, Emmett Middleton stood up, and cupped his hands in respect.

Ethan Smith slightly bowed in return as a reciprocation.

Afterwards, he randomly found a spot to sit down.

“Ethan Smith, you’re really something now, even Ms. Hayward died at your hands,” someone said off to the side.

“Yes, Ms. Hayward had reigned over Capital City for so many years, no one expected she would die at the hands of a junior.”

“Ah, originally, we thought you came from a humble background and wouldn’t be able to accomplish much, but who would have thought you’ve come this far today.”

Hearing the praises, Ethan Smith remained silent.

He was not interested in the circle of young dandies of Capital City, and his impression of them wasn’t very good, so naturally he didn’t have much to say.

“Why isn’t Dominic Taylor here?” At that moment, Ethan noticed something was amiss.

Looking out, indeed, there was no sign of Dominic Taylor.

“It is said that Dominic Taylor has gone into seclusion,” Blaise Rhodes said.

“Seclusion?” Ethan Smith furrowed his brows.

“To challenge Half-step Martial Sage?”

“Not exactly, it should be to challenge the Consummate Inner Strength Grandmaster,” Emmett Middleton took over the conversation.

Ethan Smith nodded his head.

It seems that after this busy period, he should also find some time for seclusion.

“By the way,” at that moment, Ethan Smith looked at everyone.

“I’ve heard all of you have entered the Scripture Pavilion before, right?”

Daphne Green was the first to nod, “Yes, under normal circumstances, everyone here should have entered before, but the number of times differs. I’ve only been in three times.”

“Like Dominic Taylor, he should be the person who has entered the Scripture Pavilion the most times.”

Emmett Middleton also nodded slightly, “Yes, the Taylor family is too large, common people can’t compare with them.”

Ethan Smith swept his gaze over everyone, continuing, “I’m very curious, what is there in the Scripture Pavilion and what have you all gotten from it?”

“Haha, Mr. Smith, this is where you are unknowledgeable,” Ricardo Bowman said with a light laugh.

“The reason why it’s called the ‘Scripture Pavilion’ is because it passed down from Buddhism and was later affiliated with the Capital City Martial Arts Association.”

Ethan Smith exclaimed, “Passed down from Buddhism? So, does that mean all the records in the Scripture Pavilion are not compiled by the Capital City Martial Arts Association?”

“Certainly not, the Capital City Martial Arts Association has only been operating for a few years, how could they compile that much martial arts history?” Someone nearby shook their head.

“However, over the years, the Capital City Martial Arts Association indeed made some additions to the Scripture Pavilion, making it more abundant than it was in the beginning.”

“For now, you all can head back, and I will provide you with an answer as soon as possible.”

From the side, Ethan Smith casually muttered, “Please, as quick as possible, so as not to delay our time.”

Emerson Holmes was silent for a moment, then said, “Normally, I would not be able to decide on such a matter, but under the current circumstances with the death of Ms. Hayward, I have no choice but to take charge.”

“Given that everyone is so eager, I will go ahead and make the decision, tomorrow morning at eight o’clock, assemble at the Martial Arts Academy.”

“Thank you, Chairman Holmes!” Everyone was overjoyed with this announcement.

After leaving the Capital City Martial Arts Association, everyone was surprised, “Mr. Smith, I didn’t expect Emerson Holmes to really agree.”

“Yeah, Mr. Smith you are really impressive!”

Ethan Smith also laughed and said, “It has nothing to do with me, the major role was played by the families backing all of you.”

Naturally, this remark was only made out of modesty.

After exchanging greetings with everyone, Ethan Smith prepared to leave.

“Mr. Smith,”

At that moment, Daphne Green suddenly chased after him.

Ethan Smith looked at her and asked, “Ms. Green, what’s the matter?”

Daphne Green said in a serious tone, “It is said that Emily Taylor was taken away by you, is that true?”

“Yes,” Ethan Smith did not attempt to hide this.

Daphne Green continued, “Are you going to the Scripture Pavilion for Emily Taylor?”

Ethan furrowed his brows slightly, eventually nodding his head and saying, “Yes, what do you want to ask?”

“Emily Taylor is not safe with you,” Daphne Green started ominously. “Once she leaves the Second Secret Realm, countless people will be eyeing her.”

Before Daphne Green could continue, a young man came over.

The young man was none other than Tyler Wright, who they had seen before.
