Chapter 285

Chapter 285 Arrogant Is this an attempt to reconcile with me? Emrys was surprised for a moment, but he quickly dismissed the thought from his mind.

He had met countless people, and he wondered how someone as proud and aloof as Myles could possibly feel remorse over what happened last time? He probably just felt annoyed. He’s claiming to invite me for a meal as an apology, but I fear he may have some hidden motive to deal with me later.

Emrys was not so naive.

However, the Youngblood and Atkinson families had been close for generations. Even if he didn’t want to do Myles the favor, he should at least show some respect to Richard and Lydia.

As for Myles‘ scheming, Emrys figured he would know once he arrived at the scene tomorrow. As the majestic Empyrean Lord, how could I possibly be scared of someone as insignificant as him?

Soon, on the following day, the group arrived at Solomon’s luxurious mansion.

Solomon’s age was roughly the same as Richard’s, and the two were already quite familiar with each other, so there was no need for extensive introductions.

Maximus had long been acquainted with Solomon’s family, and his relationship with Myles was fairly good.

Before Myles went abroad to study, the two of them often spent time together.

Therefore, under such circumstances, Cordelia and Emrys were the ones who seemed slightly out of place.

“Cordelia, this is Mr. Atkinson,” Lydia introduced with a smile.

Out of politeness, Cordelia approached Solomon and greeted, “Hello, Mr. Atkinson!”

“Haha! Cordelia, you’re indeed stunningly beautiful. No wonder my son is always thinking about you.

I’ve lost count of how many times he’s mentioned you in front of me.” When Solomon saw Cordelia, he couldn’t help but admire her. She’s indeed Lydia’s daughter. The genes she inherited are top–notch! It’s truly a pity that this marriage arrangement couldn’t come to fruition.

Regarding the matter between Myles and Cordelia, Solomon also had some knowledge. It seemed that his own son had encountered some obstacles in his pursuit of Cordelia, and that obstacle had also shown up that day.

With that thought in mind, Solomon swiftly shifted his gaze onto Emrys.

He had never met Emrys, but he didn’t need to guess to know that the man before him was the obstacle between his son and Cordelia.

Moreover, they had invited Emrys over that day under the pretext of offering an apology.

Solomon simply wanted to seize that opportunity to see if the person who could defeat his son was truly as outstanding as they seemed.

20% OFF A Before Lydia could introduce him, Solomon took the initiative and walked up to Emrys, asking, “Are you Emrys?

“Yes, hello” Fmrys looked straight ahead, his voice steady, emb*dying the quality of being neither humble or overbearing to its fullest extent.

However, Solomon felt that Emrys lacked manners. I’m your elder. Shouldn’t you at least add the term of address “Sir” after saying hello? What’s the deal with his tone, as if he’s conversing with his peers?

Solomon was displeased with Emrys.

Unbeknownst to him, Emrys thought that he was showing Solomon too much respect by greeting the latter. Peers? You must be daydreaming. Even if the ancient ancestors of your Atkinson family were to rise from the grave, they wouldn’t dare to consider themselves the Empyrean Lord’s equals.

Emrys looked directly ahead.

After briefly greeting Solomon, he didn’t engage in further idle chatter with him. Instead, he went straight to play with Cordelia.

Solomon was somewhat embarrassed, but he couldn’t really lose his temper. After all, Emrys hadn’t done anything too outrageous. At most, he was just lacking in manners.

Naturally, Richard and Lydia could sense Solomon’s displeasure. They exchanged a glance, both wearing bitter smiles.

Their initial impression of Emrys was exactly that – arrogant. If they had to summarize Emrys‘

personality in one word, it would be “arrogant.”

Emrys was undeniably arrogant.

However, as Emrys‘ various methods and identities were revealed, they discovered that what they had perceived as arrogance was, in fact, confidence.

Arrogance, when combined with capabilities, becomes confidence.

Arrogance without real ability, on the other hand, is pure foolishness.

Emrys belonged to the former category.

Initially, Richard and Lydia were resistant to Emrys. But now, they regarded him as a precious gem, wishing they could build a shrine to worship him.
