Unless a Martial Saint showed up, I wasn't scared of anyone.
Once we got to Capital City, Mabel suddenly asked, "Why did we have to co here?"
I thought it over and said, "I can't make you fearless yet, but... I want us to live like a real couple."
Since we'd made things official, we'd barely spent any ti together.
Now that we finally had a shot at being out in the open, I wasn't going to waste it.
We grabbed a cab from the airport and headed straight for the Sean family estate.
That one ride had countless people snapping photos and posting them everywhere.
——
Right then, Vance Johansson spotted all those pictures flooding the internet.
A crushing sense of helplessness filled his chest.
——
Soon enough, I brought Mabel to the Sean family estate.
The place was locked down tight as usual.
Strangers couldn't get within thirty feet.
Ever since Mabel left, Logan Sean had taken over this manor, and Zaria Buchanan lived here full-ti.
Being back at the Sean estate stirred up complicated feelings in Mabel.
Old mories ca rushing back - those happy monts felt gone for good.
"Stop right there! This is Sean property, nobody gets through!" Two bodyguards rushed over fast.
But when they got close, they froze solid.
"Miss... Miss Sean?" The bodyguard's voice shook.
Mabel gave a small smile. "What, don't recognize anymore?"
"No... no, of course we do." The bodyguard waved his hands.
"Then shouldn't you step aside?" Mabel said coolly.
The bodyguard looked torn.
"Miss Sean, Mr. Sean told us nobody gets through, I..." He stumbled over his words, clearly rattled.
I cut in coldly, "This is Mabel's house. What's Logan Sean's business here? If he's got a problem, he can co find ."
The bodyguard didn't dare say another word and just nodded, stepping aside.
Mabel and I walked right into the Sean estate.
——
After they entered, the bodyguard imdiately called Logan Sean.
"Mr. Sean, Miss Sean's back..." he said quietly.
"What?!" Logan shot to his feet.
He said icily, "Mabel Sean... she actually ca back!"
Logan's expression got even uglier as he paced his office. After a mont, he asked, "Who's with her?"
"With... with Mason Raymond." The bodyguard didn't dare hide it.
Hearing my na made Logan's face go even darker.
A mont later, Logan said coldly, "Got it."
After hanging up, Logan imdiately worked his connections, calling in three Half-step Martial Sages to rush to the Sean estate.
——
Inside the Sean estate, Mabel and I walked in to find Zaria Buchanan sitting on the sofa like so kind of queen.
Looking at Mabel and standing there, Zaria's face twisted with rage.
She jumped up and snapped, "Who said you could co in here! Get out now!"
Before Mabel could answer, I said coldly, "You're the one who should leave."
That set Zaria off. "You're an outsider - what's it to you!"
"Mabel Sean, listen up - this estate is mine now! If you know what's good for you, get out, or don't bla for what happens!"
My expression went ice-cold as I stepped toward Zaria.
"I told you to leave. Did you hear ?" My voice was bone-chilling, and my overwhelming presence made Zaria shake all over.
Zaria's two bodyguards rushed out and stood in front of her.
"Get... get him out!" Zaria said nervously.
"Yes!" The two bodyguards charged at without hesitation.
I didn't say a word - just waved my hand and sent both n flying!
Zaria scread when she saw that.
I raised my hand and slapped her.
Even though I held back, the slap still shattered several of Zaria's teeth and made her mouth swell up.
"Don't think I won't kill you," I said coldly.
Zaria's nerve completely broke. She covered her mouth and ran.
After driving her off, I flicked my fingers and dealt with the two bodies.
Then I looked at Mabel and said, "It's fine. Nothing's going to happen."
But Mabel still looked worried.
"Logan Sean won't let you get away with this," Mabel said softly.
I laughed. "I'm not afraid of him anymore."
Mabel didn't know how strong I'd gotten - she only knew the Sean family had massive power and could call in unimaginable forces.
"Mason, don't underestimate Logan Sean. His power is beyond what you think," Mabel whispered.
I laughed and said, "Don't worry. Even if he gets the King involved, it won't matter today!"
Mabel could only sigh at that.
I didn't take Logan Sean seriously at all. I took Mabel's hand and we headed upstairs.
Looking at the place where she grew up, Mabel felt a mix of emotions she couldn't describe.
She lay down on the big bed she'd used since childhood and said lazily, "Everything feels the sa, but everything's changed too..."
I lay down next to her and said softly, "Mabel, we'll have more and more..."
We smiled at each other, savoring this mont of happiness.
Right then, I sensed several people approaching.
"Logan Sean, you really ca. I was just thinking about looking for you." A cold smirk crossed my face.
In no ti, Logan Sean burst in with three Half-step Martial Sages!
Zaria Buchanan was with him too.
"Master, you have to get revenge for !" Zaria said with a pained expression.
The mont Mabel saw Logan Sean walk in, she stood up imdiately.
She instinctively moved to shield and said, "Uncle, this has nothing to do with Mason."
Logan glared and said coldly, "Mabel Sean, you're siding with an outsider. Can you tell why?"
"The cri of being your uncle," I shot back with a cold laugh.
"Logan Sean, you've got so nerve. How do you have the guts to say those words?"
Logan narrowed his eyes slightly and laughed coldly. "I know you've gained so skills lately, but in front of the Sean family, you're nothing!"
As he spoke, Logan started backing away step by step.
"Don't worry, these three Half-step Martial Sages of mine will take real good care of you," Logan said coldly.
Half-step Martial Sages!
When Mabel heard those words, her face went deathly pale!
She knew exactly what Half-step Martial Sages ant!
