Chapter 593
Harlan was stunned. The Killicks were one of the six major powerful families in Skyspring.
Lex was nothing but the son of the Rivspring Chamber of Commerce's president. The Killicks would
never take the Rivspring Chamber of Commerce seriously, let alone Lex?
Harlan giggled coldly. âIt seems that you're even more conceited than I had imagined! If you want
to make a move on Noella, you will have to go through me first!â
Noella was still in shock. âWhat the heck is Harlan doing?
âIs he trying to protect me? However, why is he protecting ne? Does he think I'll fall for him just
because heâs doing this?
âNo, he mentioned about me being the Killicks' important guest..."
Noella became even more confused. Since when did she form a relationship like this with the
Killicks?
She had never even seen the Killicks' door!
Lex assumed a teasing expression and said, âHarlan, oh Harlan. I have no idea how I'm supposed to
tell you this...
âThat's fine. It's about time for you to learn the awful truth...â
Harlan furrowed his eyebrows tightly. âWhat do you mean?â
Lex chuckled sarcastically and said, âWhat do I mean? Hahaha, you can't really assume that your
family is very impressive, right?
âHarlan, you're the most foolish idiot in the world. Other than the Osborns and the Friths, the rest of
the six major families are nothing.â
He looked at Harlan with a mocking smile.
âThe Killicks are the worst of the worst. There are more forces in the whole of Skyspring that can
easily eradicate the Killicks than you can count on the fingers of your hand.
"My fatherâs Rivspring Chamber of Commerce is included. We have been dormant over the years,
and that made you think that the Killicks are the sixth most powerful force in Skyspring?â
Harlan was astounded. He felt terrified and furious inside. Are there so many hidden forces in
Skyspring?
He realized that he was doubtful for a brief moment!
Lex sneered in contempt. âHarlan, you can't blame it on me when you're the one trying to get
yourself killed.â
Then, he made a hand gesture. The middle-aged man who had been sitting in a corner all this time
immediately stood up. He was the person Kayson had identified as a skilled fighter.
He walked toward Harlan. The few bodyguards who came with Harlan stepped forward in haste.
However, how could the few bodyguards who were not even trained in inner strength go against a
skilled fighter?
A few thuds sounded, and the few bodyguards were all blasted away before landing on the floor in
a bleeding pile.
Harlan turned pale with fear. Those were the bodyguards he had employed at a high cost claiming
that each could fight ten enemies alone!
However, they were defeated instantly!
Harlan was so terrified that his voice changed. âYou...â
Lex shook his head and heaved a sigh. âYou bring yourself to ruin... Harlan, have you ever heard of
fighters and practitioners 2â
Harlan's pupils constricted violently in fear. How could he possibly not have heard of those terms as
a member of the Killicks?
Lex smiled nonchalantly. âMy bodyguard is a skilled fighter.â
Harlan felt his head humming in shock. âA skilled fighter ... A skilled fighter protects Lex!?
âDoes the Rivspring Chamber of Commerce have the resources and capability to commission a
skilled fighter to protect the successor?
Could it be that Lex is right about the Rivspring Chamber of Commerce being able to crush the
Killicks easily?"
Lex narrowed his eyes. âI can spare your life, but your family will have to buy it with $300,000,000.â
Harlan had already turned ghastly pale and lost the courage to speak.
Meanwhile, Noella began to feel uneasy. Her face turned slightly red as if she was already extremely
intoxicated.
However, she had only had one drink.
Kayson took a glance at her. Soon afterward, he frowned when he glanced at the bottle in front of
her.
