Chapter 748

Hearing Winnie’s voice, Hera immediately broke free from Nash’s embrace. “I’m off to work. See you tonight!” With that, she swiftly walked out.

Nash glanced at Winnie indifferently before heading straight to the villa’s living room.

Eric greeted him with a smile, “Have you refined the Golden Onyx Pill?”

Nash shook his head and smiled bitterly. “It can’t be done in a short time. It takes a long time to refine some of the medicinal stones. This is a fifth-grade elixir. How could it be so easy? Don’t be impatient. Atlas, prepare some tea.”

Eric sat with Nash on the sofa. Nash glanced at Jesebel and Winnie, then asked with a smile, “Who are these two?”

“This is the nutritionist, Jesebel. And this is-”

“I’m the maid, Winnie!” Winnie interrupted Eric’s introduction and

introduced herself.

Atlas furrowed his brows slightly. “You shouldn’t interrupt the master when he’s talking.” This lively and agile young woman did not look like understood priorities.

Winnie stuck out her tongue and said obediently, “Got it.”

Eric waved his hand. “You two can go and do your work now.”

Winnie grabbed an apron and started to clean the room while Jesebel

went out to buy ingredients for lunch.

Eric smiled and said, “Are you here to express your gratitude? We’re

like brothers. There’s no need to be so formal!”

Nash was a stickler for rules and etiquette. He must have known

about what happened last night, which was why he came to thank

Eric.

“Express my gratitude? For what?”

Nash stared at Eric in confusion.

“Um… You don’t know what happened last night?” Eric’s face turned

awkward.

“What happened last night?” Nash continued to ask.

“Last night, your father-in-law got possessed by an evil force. He

almost killed his own older brother. It was my master who saved

them!” Atlas explained.

Eric glared at Atlas. “The adults are talking. Kids shouldn’t interrupt. Go play somewhere else!”

Atlas called Winnie a child just now, yet he himself was acting like one now. With a flushed face, Atlas sat on the opposite sofa quietly.

Eric told Nash about what transpired the night before. Then, taking on

the attitude of someone more mature, he reproached, “I don’t mean to criticize you, but your parents-in-law are ordinary people. You should consider their safety and maybe hire some strong individuals to

protect them.”

“Can you introduce me to some?” Nash smiled.

It was not difficult to find martial artists, but ordinary martial artists. would not be of much help. Finn and Melody were prime examples. Melody was fine as she was at the Profound Reality Realm.

Finn’s grandmaster-level cultivation was simply not enough for him to be considered. Powerful martial artists typically did not have much desire for money.

Moreover, Nash only knew a few Profound Reality Realm cultivators.

Most of them were either abroad or living in seclusion deep in the

mountains.

Eric forced a smile. “It’d be easier for me to look for Path takers for

you. Looking for martial artists is a bit challenging for me.”

Nash chuckled. “Forget it. Everything will be solved when I break

through to the Mystique Loyalty Realm.”

Winnie placed the cleaned tea set on the coffee table and then

crouched down to start brewing tea.

Nash withdrew his gaze from her short skirt and said in a deep voice,

I hired Jasper to protect my father-in-law and mother-in-law, but I

don’t know where that guy disappeared to.”

Eric had encountered Jasper before, and they even got into a brief

fight. In close combat, Eric was not Jasper’s match. If there was a bit

of a distance between the two, however, Eric could then use his Path

techniques and easily give Jasper a run for his money.

“Jasper is still alive?” Eric was slightly surprised. The man was quite.

well-known, and there were rumors that he had disappeared for many

years. Some even said he was dead. Unexpectedly, he had returned to

Charte

Longford and was hired by Nash as a bodyguard for his in-laws.
