Chapter 6

The man in question did not seem to be anyone distinguished, but the person he represented was one. The Greene Family, they were one of the most influential families in Mediterrania. He announced his presence meant that he was representing the will of the Greene Family. Although Doug was influential, he could only bow his head when facing the actual ‘royalty’ in town. “The elder is here?” Doug asked in a hushed tone while looking at young Blaker. “He is not. I am here to manage something in his stead,” Blaker responded with a smirk on his face. “Whatever is it, I’m willing to help,” Doug solemnly replied. He had hoped to create a bond with the Greene Family; although they knew of each other, he could barely be considered as acquaintances with the Greene Family. Everyone had halted their actions at this point; even the ones making phone calls had stopped altogether. They are all dazed with amazement when looking at the well-dressed man. They wondered who the person that made Doug obedient as a puppy was. “It’s a coincidence, I am actually here for this gentleman.” Blaker looked at Doug while pointing at Jason. Jason frowned while Miranda got nervous. She hoped that Jason had not caused even more trouble with someone more influential than Doug, the Greene Family in this case. “Hello, Elder Greene had instructed me to hand you his business card. When you’re available, he would like to host a feast for you personally.” The man’s words made Doug’s heart skip a beat, while Miranda felt immense relief and started to inspect Jason. “Invitation from Elder Greene?” Doug mumbled while staring at Jason. Doug was aware that the guests invited by them were all exceptional people. There were only very few people that could be seated at the same dining table as the elder. Doug could not understand how the kid in front was deserving of such honor. Looking at Doug’s dazed expression, Jason’s lips raised into a smirk. He promptly stuffed the business card into his pocket in a casual manner, looked at young Blaker, and calmly said, “I’ll definitely attend someday.” “Great, if you require anything, don’t hesitate to let us know. The Greene Family will handle it for you.” Blaker looked at Jason and spoke calmly. As he had saved the young master’s life, he was considered a benefactor of the Greene Family. Thus, it was an obligation for them to handle affairs for him. “No need.” Jason glanced at the nervous-looking Doug and shook his head. A hint of gratefulness could be seen from Doug’s eyes as he returned the gaze. Meanwhile, Miranda was completely shocked. Jason may not know what the Greene Family was capable of, but she did. ‘This useless fellow actually made friends with the Greene Family somewhere somehow!” Clark also felt shocked at the turn of events and thought, ‘Was this still the Jason that I knew? That was the Greene Family we’re talking about! One of the select few distinguished families in Mediterrania! Whose status was untouchable!” “Let’s go,” Jason spoke softly to Miranda. Miranda absentmindedly nodded and simply let Jason take her by the hand. When they were close to Doug, Jason looked at him and lightly frowned. Even if young Blaker did not make an appearance, he would still have dealt with Doug, although it would not be appropriate to take any action now. He looked at Doug and spoke calmly, “Don’t ever mess with me again.” “Yes, yes.” Doug quickly nodded respectfully. He knew that someone who had Greene Family’s business card delivered personally was not to be reckoned with. The result looked as if Jason had borrowed the Greene Family’s influence to settle things, but they did not realize that Jason should have been the person that they should fear the most. After such an ordeal had happened, there was no longer a reason to continue the meal. Members of the Dale Family were all stuck in a state of shock, as Jason had not seemed as useless as they had believed. “Ja… Jason, since when did you have relations with the Greene Family?” Hank asked carefully. He felt slightly unwilling, envious, and feared that Jason might retaliate towards him. In truth, the entire family was curious about how someone like Jason became associated with the Greene Family. The Greene Family was the most influential group in Mediterrania, while he was a disgraced son-in-law for a family of minor repute. No matter how they looked at it, it should be impossible for both parties to be associated with each other. “The truth is that I don’t know who they are,” Jason calmly explained.
