Chapter 131: Kimberly Gold
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Finn Taylor thought that he had become no better than a rat in this house. However, Diane Taylor entered and helped him clean up the room.
“Don’t you think I’m disgusting?”
?
Finn Taylor asked such a strange question that Diane Taylor couldn’t help but laugh. “Mr. Taylor, I’m sure that you’ve done nothing wrong. You probably have your own reasons that you can’t reveal.”
Finn Taylor simply smiled but didn’t explain himself.
While eating lunch, Linda James had been lambasting her son-in-law, saying that he was worthless.
Diane Taylor couldn’t stand it and had spoken up for him. In the end, she was scolded as well.
Linda James was mean with her words and was terribly unreasonable. She immediately called Diane Taylor shameless for staying in their house, even saying that the latter was trying to become Finn Taylor’s mistress.
Finn Taylor quickly stopped his mother-in-law, instructing Diane Taylor to return to her room.
“Mom, can you be more reasonable? I don’t mind you scolding me, but why do you have to drag her into the picture too? She’s so young and hasn’t even turned 20. Would you feel good about someone scolding Yvette like that at that age?”
Seeing that Finn Taylor was still rebuking her even after he had done something wrong, Linda James was fuming.
With a loud thud, she slammed her fork down on the table. “Isn’t she just a helper? I’m paying her, so why can’t I scold her? If you don’t want me to scold her, transfer the house to Yvette. Don’t you think that Yvette won’t get a divorce from you? Let’s see if you dare to transfer this house to Yvette then.”
At the mention of this, Diane Taylor rushed out of her room. “No, Mr. Taylor. I’m just hired help, so it’s fine for me to be scolded.”
But Finn Taylor questioned, “Are you sure that you won’t scold Diane Taylor from now on if I hand this house over to Yvette?”
“Fine, I can promise you that. As long as you transfer the house to Yvette, I won’t scold her anymore.”
“Alright, I can do that. You can decide on the date.”
Linda James was elated as soon as she heard those words. It was as though she had won a battle.
“Mr. Taylor, I’m sorry for bothering you.” Diane Taylor felt uneasy. Everyone else in the family treated her as a helper, and only Finn Taylor treated her as his own kin.
Nobody would ever let hired help eat at the same table during meals. Yet, Finn Taylor had allowed her to do so.
“It’s not your problem. She hates me and is just using you as an excuse.”
Diane Taylor knew that he was speaking the truth, but that didn’t ease the discomfort in her heart.
That afternoon, Finn Taylor received news from Wampus—the Third Master of Chicago’s Gold family had arrived in San Francisco.
The Gold family of Chicago wasn’t just any small family. They were a prestigious and well-known family.
Although Third Master Gold wasn’t the family head, he was still an elder in the family.
Upon receiving this piece of news, Finn Taylor rushed off to look for Wampus.
Then, he received another piece of news from the latter—the Gold family head wouldn’t live for much longer and was going to hand the family over to his son.
Based on the Gold family’s rules, all of the Old Master’s siblings would have to move out of Chicago and start new lives of their own. Otherwise, the Old Master’s son would never be able to cater to all of his elders’ wants.
Once the family head couldn’t have the final say, the family would be in grave danger.
It seemed like Third Master Gold was going to settle down in San Francisco to expand his territory.
Finn Taylor was rather interested in Third Master Gold and decided to pay him a visit.
With Wampus leading the way, Finn Taylor quickly arrived at San Francisco’s martial arts center.
San Francisco’s martial art center seemed to be a martial arts academy on the surface, but its basement housed an underground arena.
Of course, Finn Taylor wasn’t here to learn martial arts. As such, the pair headed straight for the underground arena.
However, they were stopped at the door.
But as soon as Wampus revealed his identity, the security officer stepped aside and let them in.
…
In the underground arena.
Beside Third Master Gold was a strange girl—his granddaughter, Kimberly Gold.
“Grandpa, will we not be able to stay in San Francisco if we lose this contest?”
Third Master Gold smiled. “It’s best not for little girls to ask about such things.”
In reality, Third Master Gold knew very well that his granddaughter was right.
Every place had its own rules. In every city, a few families kept each other in check, and none was able to rise up or fall.
The poor were still poor, while the rich were still rich.
To prominent families, this was the best situation possible. However, any new power trying to break into the circle would disturb this fragile ecosystem.
Hence, any family that wanted to break into San Francisco’s business circle had to win this match in the underground arena.
Here, there were many fighters who were backed by the most prominent families in San Francisco. If Third Master Gold wanted to settle down in San Francisco, he would have to hire a fighter and win against the fighters here as well.
“Grandpa, listen to me. That fighter there—Prince—looks strong.”
Prince—he was a prince amongst men! What arrogance!
Of course, Third Master Gold had heard of him. However, he couldn’t back down from this fight.
The fighter he had hired wasn’t bad either—he was a Muay Thai master.
He had paid the fighter ten-fold the normal price. Even if he were to die, he had to die in the arena.
Because he had been so generous, he was sure that this man would go all-out.
Third Master Gold was certain that his fighter would surely win.
Under such a tense atmosphere, Finn Taylor strolled in.
Only he walked in while Wampus stood at the door, stopping anyone else from entering.
‘Wait a minute!’?The little girl was a little curious as she looked at Finn Taylor. “Are you Prince? You look quite weak.”
Finn Taylor was confused.?‘What the heck? I’m Master Peregrine. Since when have I become a prince instead?’
“No, I’m just here to watch the match.”
The moment the girl heard that, her initial interest faded. To her, she simply wanted to see if that Prince her grandpa’s fighter was going against was actually strong.
She had no interest in anyone else.
Very quickly, Prince appeared.
Just from his walk alone, Kimberly Gold felt a strong aura from him.
Prince was a true master. This was an aura he had gained from experiencing hundreds of battles.
An average person could never exude such a strong aura.
“Grandpa…” Kimberly Gold was slightly worried, but they had no choice but to go into battle.
The Gold family’s fighter entered the arena too.
The two fighters bowed to each other.
Fight!
The moment the match started, the Muay Thai fighter was struck down and flipped onto the ground.
In an instant, the air in the arena froze.
A chilling gaze flashed past Third Master Gold’s eyes.
