Capital City, Mitchell Family Villa!
The villa where the Mitchell family resided occupied an expansive area, despite being the only household present.
Inside, there were gardens, private swimming pools, and even a private football field. To call it extravagant would be an understatement.
Standing at the entrance to the villa complex, White Mitchell stopped in his tracks, staring at the two flamboyantly inscribed characters âMitchell Mansionâ, overwhelmed by waves of emotions.
Eighteen years had passed. He finally had the right to return to this place, finally had the right to seek revenge on those who had harmed him eighteen years ago.
He could never forget the humiliation, the dangers, and the disgrace he had endured when he left this place all those years ago.
Now, he had finally returned. It was about time to repay these bloody debts!
Observing Whiteâs hesitating pace, Mateo Mitchell, who was disguised as someone else, mistook Whiteâs emotional turmoil and advised, âChild, let it go. Some things are past your control, and you cannot rectify them.
It would be better to look ahead. I believe under your leadership, the Mitchell family will change its current state and move towards a brighter direction.â
âCome backâ¦â
Upon hearing this, White snapped out of his reminiscence. He turned to Mateo, his features expressionless, âDo you believe,â he queried, âthat things from the past are truly over?â
The address âUncle,â brought tears to Mateoâs eyes.
Finally, he heard White addressing him as âUncle.â Had he already accepted him?
âGood lad, of course, they are over. Rest assured, I have arranged everything. No one will dare to harm you upon your return to the Mitchell family,â Mateo vowed earnestly.
White smiled faintly, as he walked forward, replying, âIâm afraid things wouldnât turn out the way youâre imagining.â
What did he mean by this?
Bewildered, Mateo shook his head but, without dwelling further, hurriedly followed White.
Before long, they were stopped by the guards of the Mitchell family.
âWho are you? This is a restricted area of Mitchell Mansion. No outsiders allowed!â A guard spoke up, his face stony.
âLevi Mitchell, here to attend the banquet.â White replied, introducing himself. He then pointed at the person standing behind him, adding, âThis is my man, Joseph Jones.â
Levi Mitchell?
Joseph Jones?
The guard responded with impassiveness, âWait here, Iâll notify them first.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âAt your leisure,â White replied nonchalantly.
The guard turned around and, walking away, muttered into his walkie-talkie, âLevi Mitchell is here, with a man named Joseph Jones, what should we do, let them in or keep them waiting?â
Though the guard presumed his words were unheard by White, neither White nor Mateo, at their level, would miss the slightest sound within a hundred-meter radius around them.
Hearing this, Mateo was seething with rage.
âUncle, do you still think your words have any weight here?â White asked Mateo calmly.
With a lowered head, Mateoâs face was flushed, still defending the Mitchell family, âPâ¦probably itâs only the subordinates who donât understand. Once they identify you, theyâll respectfully welcome you.â
Hearing his words, White chuckled dismissively, âWhether they welcome us or not is irrelevant. The outcome will not change. Surely, youâre not afraid to witness the true face of the Mitchell family youâve been so diligently protecting?â
âI trust the Mitchell family!â Mateo responded stubbornly, but an undercurrent of uncertainty laced his affirmation.
The guard who had earlier halted their progress returned, smirking dismissively, âAlright. Follow me, donât wander, just stick to me!â
âThe hell do youâ¦â Mateo flared up at the guardâs insolent behaviour.
However, the guard merely gave him a contemptuous glance, retorting, âWhatâs a little man from the Jones Family doing here, shouting and yelping so loudly. Do you want to die? If youâre tired of living, just speak up. Iâd be glad to send you on your way.â
Whoosh!
Mateo was teetering on the edge of a raging explosion. What the hell was happening?
Just as Mateo was about to react, White placed a hand on his shoulder, laughing softly, âDonât rush, the real drama hasnât started yet. If you act out now, we wonât be able to watch todayâs show. Do you not believe in your Mitchell family any more?â
Hearing this, Mateo, suppressing his rage, reluctantly nodded.
Seeing this, the guard leading the way sneered, âSmall people always stay small. They think theyâre more capable than they are. If you had the guts to retaliate, Iâd have called you a man. But now, huh, youâre nothing more than a coward.â
âYou!â Mateo glared at the guard, seething, but refrained from reacting with White beside him. Resentfully, he vowed to teach him a lesson later.
After this minor diversion, White and Mateo continued to follow the guard.
Normally, guests at the vast Mitchell family plot were escorted in a sightseeing vehicle, but this guard was clearly trying to cause trouble for White and Mateo, making them walk for almost three kilometers.
Mateo, following behind White, was already boiling with anger. Had it not been for White, he would have revealed his identity long ago, teaching this insolent guard a lesson.
Finally, they arrived at one of the Mitchell family villas.
However, it was not the main residence.
The main residence was in the center of the villas, the largest and most luxurious building in the whole area.
But the current villa was obviously an ordinary residence for the Mitchell family clan.
Observing the scenery, Mateo who was following White couldnât help but ask, âWhat is the meaning of this?â
The guard, annoyed at the question, rolled his eyes, and retorted, âDonât you tire of all the pointless chatter? If I say stay, you stay. Where do all these questions come from?â
âYou!â Suppressing an urge to rage, Mateo said, âWe came here for the annual Mitchell family meeting. Whatâs the meaning of shuffling us off here? Shouldnât you provide an explanation?â
An explanation?
The guard responded coldly, âYouâre as good as dead, and you want an explanation?â
Dead!?
Thisâ¦
Mateo was taken aback. Before he could understand the situation, several formidable figures appeared in front of White and him, emblazoned with icy disregard.
