The Forgotten Titan's Resurgence novel Chapter 14

Chapter 14 

Their mockery made Elara turn red, and she grew even more disgusted with Gideon. 

He was useless, but he still behaved so arrogantly! What an embarrassment he was! 

Elara was already regretting bringing Gideon along. 

Matthew laughed and said, “Since Mr. Snow here insists that someone will come to pick him up, let him be. We need to hurry because the visit to Beaker Island has a time limit.” 

Everyone scurried off. 

Just as Gideon was about to make a phone call, it hit him—there was no one at the villa! 

Leopold had previously offered to arrange some household staff for him, but Gideon had declined. Now, there was really no one who could come to pick him up. 

Gideon cursed under his breath. He’d dug this hole for himself, so he had to see it through, no matter what. 

He called Leopold, and 15 minutes later, Leopold drove up in a rush. 

“Get in the car, sir!” 

“Sorry for troubling you,” Gideon said. 

“Please don’t say that. It’s my honor! Sir, why don’t I arrange a few beautiful maids for you? It would make life a bit more comfortable.” 

“No need. I prefer peace and quiet. Women would only disturb me while I train.” 

“Alright, then.” 

Leopold was speechless. 

The car sped down the road, and within moments, they spotted Matthew’s group. 

The bridge to Beaker Island was fairly long, and they were still many yards away from Beaker Island as they took breaks from time to time. 

“A car’s coming!” 

“Wow! It’s a custom–made extended Rolls–Royce! That’s got to be worth millions of dollars!” 

“Look at the license plate number–66666! That’s worth more than the car itself!” 

“Whoever owns this car must be a prominent figure! Could that person be living on Beaker Island?” 

Matthew was excited. “Let’s catch up to the car! It would be such an honor for us if we could meet someone like that. If they were to favor us with even a small token, it would be immensely valuable to people like us.” 

Inside the car, Gideon saw the group madly running through the rearview mirror and smiled. The women in high heels had taken them off and were running barefoot. The scene was quite comical. 

“Sir, are those people your friends?” Leopold asked. 

“Nope!” 

“Should I get rid of them?” 

“No need,” Gideon said, shaking his head.

Leopold dropped the matter. 

The car stopped in front of the villa, and Gideon said, “If you’re busy, you can head off now.” 

“Alright, sir. If you need anything, just give me a call. I’ll be right over.” 

After Leopold left, Gideon entered the villa, opened a bottle of red wine, and sat on the couch. As he put on some relaxing music, he felt utterly serene. 

He couldn’t be bothered about Matthew, Elara, and the others. He had come back to Beaker Island for some rest. He had no interest in mingling with a bunch of insignificant scions. 

Meanwhile, Matthew and the others finally reached Beaker Island. 

“Matthew, should we head straight to that villa in the center of the island that looks like a palace?” someone asked. 

“No. That would be too intrusive. Let’s explore the island first.” 

They wandered around the island and eventually reached the central area, where they saw the grand villa. 

“Goodness me! This is the most beautiful and extravagant villa I’ve ever seen!” 

“It’s like a palace!” 

“Who on Earth lives here? Even the government has designated this area as a restricted zone.” 

Though nervous, the crowd couldn’t resist moving closer to the villa. Finally, they arrived at the front door. 

“Matthew, knock on the door! We might get a once–in–a–lifetime opportunity to enter the place. That would be amazing.”
