Santiago bowed and said, âGreetings, Master Jaxon!â
Jaxon brought his palms together and bowed slightly, âGreetings, Mr. Snyder Senior!â
Felicity pursed her lips. âNo need for such formalities, Grandpa. Master Jaxon is very easygoing. Besides, heâs younger than you are!â
Santiago glared at Felicity. âDonât be impudent!â
Felicity had already recounted everything that happened at Sigur Cliff over the phone a couple of days ago.
He knew that both Jaxon and Nash were Mystique Loyalty Realm
experts.
People like them were extremely powerful and capable. It was in the familyâs best interests to be on good terms with them.
Felicity smiled ruefully before she introduced Melody to everyone, This is Melody Stone, a friend of Nash!â
Santiago finally looked at Melody. The more he looked at h
more she seemed familiar to him. He asked in surprise, âAre
Xanthalos?â
âGood day, Mr. Snyder Senior. Yes, Iâm indeed from Xanthalos!â
âMichael Stoneâ¦â
âHeâs my father⦠My family once worked with Stone Corporation!â Melody answered in a gentle voice.
âNo wonder you look so alike. Your father was a prodigal businessman. What a pity⦠He was taken so earlyâ¦â
Santiago shook his head and sighed.
A sad look briefly appeared in Melodyâs eyes. âThatâs all in the pastâ¦â
Santiago beckoned to them. âLetâs sit down and chat!â
Everyone sat down on the couch.
Nash gave Melody a sideways glance.
He abruptly began beating himself up slightly.

Melody had done so much for him, but he had never bothered
learning more about her familyâs history.
Once everything in Jonford was dealt with, he would take the time to
visit Xanthalos.
Mr. Snyder Senior gave Nash a once-over. An odd look appeared in his eyes briefly, but he quickly covered it up and smiled as he asked, â
Mr. Calcraft, I heard that youâre here to deal with Dominic
that right?â
Nash did not bother hiding the truth and nodded. âTrue freed not exist in Sagen unless Dominicâs presence is removed!â

Santiago smiled bitterly. âYouâre right. Dominic became a shareh in all of Sagenâs corporations eight years ago, and he used vari methods to gain a large portion of shares in all of them. His
existence has truly troubled us!â
Felicity added, âIf it werenât for Dominic, Sagenâs GDP would be at
Chapt/ 926
least double what it is now. And the economy wouldnât be in the
stagnant state it currently is in!â
Santiago retrieved a pack of high-quality cigarettes from his pocket and handed them to Nash. âHowever, I must remind you that Dominic has extremely powerful politicians backing him up, Mr. Calcraft. You might find yourself in trouble if you attack him too hastily.â
Nash took a cigarette and placed it between his lips. He patted his pockets but could not find a lighter. Hence, Santiago produced one from his pockets and bent forward slightly to light up Nashâs
cigarette.
Melody said, âMr. Snyder Senior, Nash canât smoke now as heâs
recovering from his injuries!â

Felicity added, âYou should all stop smoking. Donât make my house
smell like cigarettes!â
Santiago had already flicked the lighter, and Nash was just about to
stand up to light his cigarette.
They froze after hearing what they both had to say.
Nash sat back on the couch and chuckled. âGuess I shouldnât
smoking!â
Confused, Melody asked, âI remember you were never much of a
smoker. Whatâs gotten into you recently?â
Before Nash could answer, Santiago chuckled and said, âItâs only
normal that youngsters feel pressure. Smoking can help alleviate tha
pressure!â
Felicity crossed her arms over her chest and said in a displeased
Chacofee
tone, âSmoking is bad for your health!â
Santiago smiled but did not say anything.
Nash returned to the previous topic. âI understand that Dominic is
backed by politicians. However, since Iâve chosen to come to Sagen, it
means I have a way to deal with him!â
Santiago was still worried. âWhat if heâs too powerful?â
He made an educated guess that the person assisting Dominic
should be working in Capiton. They probably held quite a high
position too.
Nash said nonchalantly, âIf I make an appearance thatâs enough of a
surprise, it doesnât matter how powerful they are!â
