Chapter 119
The Understated Dragon Lord
Chapter 119 Samuelâs Arrival
The disciples of Harrisons Martial Club couldnât bring themselves to believe what had just happened, so they rubbed their eyes in unison. But even after rubbing, nothing had changed. It was still Sky with a broken arm, not the country kid, Daniel. Six, who had never lost a fight before, was defeated today by a nobody from nowhere?
The club was part of New Yorkâs prestigious Four Martial Clubs, and Sky, who was ranked number six, couldnât beat a nobody. Did this mean Harrisons Martial Club wasnât as strong as they thought? Nothing was more devastating for them than the destruction of their selfâconfidence.
Now the Harrisons Martial Clubâs disciples were dispirited, all fight gone out of them. As for Sky, although the screaming had stopped, the pain of a broken bone was keeping him speechless.
Daniel, hands in pockets, looked around cheerfully, âAnyone else wants to challenge me? Iâm game for all takers. If not, letâs talk about my compensation!â
âHow dare you make trouble in Ancient Mall?â A portly man thundered, flanked by a troop of bodyguards in black suits, striding forward with confidence. He was the owner of Ancient Mall and the number three man of Harrisons, Samuel!
Seeing Samuel, Jessica quickly intervened. âThis is all a big misunderstanding, Samuel.â
Samuel was surprised to see Jessica there. Heâd rushed over because he heard someone was causing a disturbance at Ancient Mall, but he hadnât expected to find the oldest daughter of the Matthews family here. Calming down, he decided to get to the bottom of it. âWhat misunderstanding, Jessica?â
âI came shopping here with my assistant Daniel, and the shop staff accused him of stealing. They even had security come and beat him up. Then Daniel defended himself, and well, the security staff got a little lesson. After that, your security chief called in more people, but they, too, got taken down by Daniel.â
Samuel asked skeptically, âA misunderstanding? Are you sure you didnât deliberately bring a tough ex- military assistant to cause trouble for Harrisons?â
âWhy would I do that? While the Matthews family and the Harrisons do compete in business, Iâm not
bored enough to come hassle you for no reason.â
âThatâs true. The Matthews are New Yorkâs number one family; they wouldnât stoop so low. I believe you,
Jessica. Itâs all a misunderstanding.â
Samuel, smiling at Jessica, said, âEven if it was a misunderstanding, your assistant hurt a lot of people. Shouldnât there be some kind of compensation for that?â
âWe were here to shop and spend money, but your security wrongly accused my assistant, and they were the first to get physical. We were just defending ourselves. If they got hurt, your security team had it coming. This is New York; they dared to attack my employee. What they got was just a little punishment, a
small lesson.
Samuel, if you ask me, my resolution is this: For your sake, I wonât hold them responsible this time. But if
anything like this happens again, it wonât end this simply!â

Jessica stood her ground, firm and unyielding.
And the reason for her firmness was simple: they accused not just any employee, but her dear one. Even if it was pretend, he was still half hers! That shop clerk judged by looks and bullied her man, and she
wouldnât stand for it.
