Dauntless God Of War

Chapter 66

“Watch your tongue, Carolyn. Apologize this instant!” Logan, who was beside her, stood up abruptly.

He was ready to put her in her place for raising her voice at Harold.

“Am I wrong? There are so many talented and beautiful women of significant social standing in this world who are dying to be with Harold, yet he rejected all of them for a girl who treats him coldly. How is he... any different from a simp?” Carolyn trailed off, her voice eventually becoming just short of a mumble.

“How dare you!” Logan snapped. He could not hold back at Carolyn's lack of remorse when she had gone so far as to call Harold a simp. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Carolyn did not retaliate. She knew that resistance was futile. She was no match for Logan, who was the strongest of The Four.

“Logan, don't mind her. There are some things that the two of you won't understand. Lift the ban before tomorrow!” Harold instructed Carolyn. He sighed as he checked the time. It was already nine at night.

“It's getting late. I'm leaving.” He rose to his feet and left the café.

Craig and James, who had been standing outside the door, disguised as waiters, did not dare to leave until Harold, Logan, and the others had left.

Along the way, Harold left a comment on Brittany's post: Rest well, tomorrow will be better.

Then, he put his phone away.

In the living room of the Sullivan residence in Eastview, Connor Sullivan, head of the Sullivan household, was livid.

“You want me to resolve the issue with Brittany's Greenhouse Produce? Are you courting death?” he roared.

Jon had been waiting for his father's return ever since the former came back from Brittany's house.

Connor, Jon's father, finally returned from a social engagement at around nine. Jon quickly brewed him a cup of coffee and told him about Brittany's situation.

Given the status of the Sullivans as a first-class family in Dellmoor, Jon believed that the Xenos family's issue would be resolved with just a few words from his father.

Then, he could bring his lover home.

However, as soon as he spoke of Brittany's situation, his father's hand trembled. The cup fell from his unsteady grasp.

Connor stared at his son, who had just returned from overseas, in shock. He even disregarded the hot drink that had spilled onto his hand.

“Dad, what's wrong? Brittany's situation can be resolved with just a simple order from you. Why are you making a fuss over it?” Jon said, looking at his father uncertainly.

“You know nothing. The entire Dellmoor knows of the situation with Brittany's Greenhouse Produce. It is said that the manager of Paradise Hotel spread news about the ban to the platinum members. In other words, the ban was implemented by an insider from Paradise Hotel. Not even Dellmoor's richest man, Philip, has the power to save the Xenos family, much less someone of my position. Furthermore, anyone who gets dragged into the matter may be doomed forever. Don't involve yourself with Brittany and her family if they're unable to settle the issue themselves. Otherwise, the Sullivans will be destroyed in an instant,” Connor warned his son sternly.

“One more thing. A certain character, who is apparently feared by the three big shots, has recently arrived in Dellmoor. Keep your distance. Do not offend him if you encounter him,” Connor added.

He took out his phone and showed Jon a short video that he had received on WhatsApp.
