Anton didn’t want things to escalate out of control. He took a step forward and looked at Wade, saying, “Mr. Watts, our families have been fighting and hurting each other for years. This can’t go on forever.”
“After our families become one through marriage, we will become the most powerful force in Zratol. Even Marquis Manor will have to show us respect.”
“Today, I sincerely come to propose to Miss Watts on behalf of my nephew.”
After Anton finished speaking, he bowed to Wade with a sincere expression.
Cristofer Golden chimed in, “That’s right, Mr. Watts. The union of our families would be beneficial for both sides. It would be a chance to end the years of conflict between the Golden and Watts families. Don’t the Watts family want to reconcile with my Golden Family?”
“Reconcile? Your Golden Family seriously injured my elder brother. Do you think reconciliation is possible?” Wade’s gaze turned cold.
“Izaiah Golden, take your things and leave. My Watts family doesn’t have much space, and I won’t see you off!” Elder Catalina directly drove them away.
Izaiah Golden stared at Wade and coldly said, “Mr. Watts, it seems that your Watts family is determined not to give my Golden Family any face?”
“Izaiah Golden, please leave!” Wade’s voice was icy.
“Mr. Watts, believe me, if I walk out that door, there are things that you definitely wouldn’t want to see.” Izaiah Golden threatened directly.
Ramon Watts took two steps forward, his powerful aura bursting out. “Izaiah Golden, are you indirectly admitting that it was your Golden Family who seriously injured my elder brother!?”
Izaiah Golden didn’t even look at Ramon Watts and calmly said, “This morning, your Watts family’s Elder Jaidyn took a little girl named Lyric to play in the Spirit Fruit Garden outside Zratol, right?”
“The second elder? Lyric?”
Upon hearing Izaiah Golden’s words, Wade and the others’ faces changed drastically.
“What did you do to Lyric!?” Ramon Watts stared at Izaiah Golden, veins popping on his forehead.
“Izaiah Golden, are you trying to start a war with my Watts family!? If anything happens to the second elder and Lyric, not a single one of you will leave my Watts family today!” Wade’s powerful aura burst out, pressing down on Izaiah Golden and the others.
Elder Catalina, Keith Conway, and others swiftly surrounded Izaiah Golden, Cristofer Golden, Anton, and the other two elders from the Golden Family.
Izaiah Golden and the others seemed prepared for this situation and their expressions didn’t change much.
“Mr. Watts, there’s no need to get so angry. The union of our families would be beneficial for both sides. If we continue to fight, the Watts family won’t be a match for my Golden Family in the end!”
“I don’t think you know yet. Half a month ago, Mr. Golden happened to encounter the Elder of the Bloodsoul Sect in Azure Dragon Mountains during his training. The Elder took a liking to Mr. Golden’s talent and will soon accept him as a closed-door disciple.” Izaiah Golden added with a smug smile.
This statement caused Wade and the others’ expressions to change. The fact that the Golden Family had colluded with the Bloodsoul Sect was unexpected.
The Bloodsoul Sect was powerful and ruthless, on par with Marquis Manor and even stronger than the three major families.
Izaiah Golden observed Wade and the others’ reactions and continued, “Mr. Watts, don’t you think Zratol has been too quiet for too long? Zratol doesn’t really need the three major families. If our families unite, Zratol will belong to us. The Kaufman family can be eliminated.”
Wade sneered. He naturally didn’t believe Izaiah Golden’s words.
Once the balance of power among the three major families was broken, stability would be lost. If the Kaufman family really disappeared, it would likely be the turn of the Watts family next.
The ambitions of the Golden Family were growing. Now they had even joined forces with the Bloodsoul Sect, which explained their increasingly audacious actions.
“Miss Watts, I believe only I, Anton, am worthy of you in all of Zratol. As for certain people around you, they are nothing more than ants,” Anton said with a cold smile as he glanced at Leo.
“Who’s an ant? I know very well myself!” Amber retorted firmly.
Amber’s words made Anton’s smile freeze for a moment.
Then Anton’s handsome face turned cold as he looked at Leo with hostility.
It seemed that this kid really had some connection with Amber; otherwise, she wouldn’t defend him like this.
Anton shifted his gaze back to Arthur and said, “Mr. Watts, I suppose this is the young man you mentioned?”
Arthur was about to speak when Leo, who had been silent all this time, sarcastically interjected, “Mr. Golden, is your sense of superiority demonstrated through such despicable means as kidnapping children?”
