A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1912

The sound was like a thunderous explosion.

Gray and his bodyguards were stunned by Ye Fan's intense aura. They were struck dumb as they stood frozen in place.

Gray felt like his life was on the line when he faced Ye Fan. He didn't understand why he got that feeling.

Ye Fan was just a poor, nameless dog from the lower caste. Yet why did he feel such a deep sense of fear of the former's crushing pressure?

Ye Fan merely turned around and left. He didn't take Gray's life because he knew the latter did it for his daughter.

Ye Fan was always more tolerant toward fathers that showed paternal love to their children.

After Ye Fan's silhouette was gone from sight, Gray finally snapped out from his daze of terror.

"What a presumptuous young man! What power does he think he has in his hands? How powerful can a nameless hooligan be? Can he be more powerful than an organization or a family? What a brat!" He shook

his head, his eyes filled with disdain.

An individual's mediocrity might be temporary, but one must know one's worth. No one would expect success from an individual who can't even face his own worthlessness and mediocrity.

In his eyes, an egoistic and cowardly man like Ye Fan was destined to achieve nothing in his life.

He even thought of giving Ye Fan a boost for his daughter's sake, but he had dashed that thought.

Right that moment, he would rather give a pig a boost rather than Ye Fan.

"Let's go," Gray huffed as he whirled around to leave.

Once he reached Noa's side, he said, "Forget about him. Such an inferior and dishonorable man isn't worthy of you, and he doesn't deserve a place in your heart. I will select the most outstanding man to be your husband and my son-in-law," he promised in a deep tone.

"Ye Fan, what's wrong? Why was the head of the Vias family looking for you? Is he planning to take revenge against you? That girl earlier seems to be part of the Vias family," Kieran asked with concern the minute Ye

Fan returned to his seat.

Ye Fan merely shot him a light smile. "It's fine. I've got it under control."

"That's good." Kieran let out a long exhale. "The Vias family is India's most powerful noble family among the top three noble families. You can't picture the influence and power they have.

"If they want to take action against you, you might not make it out of India alive," Kieran said in a somber tone.

Feeling uncertain, Winnie asked, "Are you sure everything's taken care of?"

Ye Fan chuckled. "Do you think I can stand here safe and sound otherwise?"

His words had cleared up Winnie's doubt.

"Let's pray that is the case. I hope you learned something after this incident. A man with a humble background like you should keep a low profile. Your recklessness might give you a quick high, but a small fry like you won't be able to bear the consequences," Winnie advised as if she was a life coach giving a life lesson.

Kieran nodded his head, as he could not agree more. "Ye Fan, I know her advice is harsh, but it's for your own good. All in all, let's try not to cause any more trouble," Kieran said.

Ye Fan merely flashed them a smile without a word.

The music blared from the speakers mounted on the corners of the hall. As if on cue, the master of ceremonies went up the stage.

"Greetings, ladies and gentlemen. I thank you all for coming here despite your busy schedules, especially those who come from afar. Let us witness a grand wedding held on this sacred day.

"I guess everyone here knows the groom, for he is India's most powerful man and has been protecting this nation's citizens for his entire life.

"The president has even granted him a title and land. That's right. He's none otherthan our King of India," the master of ceremonies introduced excitedly.

The applause from downstage was deafening.

Kieran and Winnie clapped their hands with the crowd.

"Next up, I'll be introducing the bride. I have hosted many weddings in my career, almost a thousand. So I can say, without any exaggeration, that the bride today is the most beautiful bride I have ever seen in my career.

"There's a saying in China about beauty that obscures the moon and makes flowers blush.

"Yet I think all the idioms and adjectives in this world can't describe her beauty. All right. Enough said. Let us welcome the bride and groom!"

Boom!

At the master of ceremonies' cue, hundreds of firecrackers went off, creating a symphony of pops.

Melodious music began playing in the background.

Rose petals began falling from the ceiling.

The huge heaven-gate-like doors to the castle were pushed open.

Soon, the bright rays of the sun shone into the hall through the opening.

The crowd observed a man wearing a suit, with the bride's fair, lean arm tucked in his as they walked into the hall, parading down the new red carpet with rose petals raining down on them. Everyone present was stoked by the magnificent sight.

While the women were watching the bride with envious gazes, the men's eyes were trained on India's most powerful man with admiration.

Slowly, the couple walked toward the stage under the scrutiny of thousands of pairs of eyes.

At the same time, a huge LED screen on the stage began displaying a compilation of photos of the King of India and the bride.

"Oh heavens!"

"Is that the bride of the King of India?"

"She's so beautiful!"

"That is a face that can launch a thousand ships!"

"Since when did India have such a beautiful girl?"

A commotion stirred within the crowd.

Even though the bride had a veil on, the photos on the massive screen showed everyone the beauty of the bride.

"Ye Fan, look! She's a beauty! I won't have any other regrets if my future wife has even one-tenth of her beauty," Kieran shouted enthusiastically.

However, he didn't notice Ye Fan's curled-up fists and trembling body.

It's Junie! How can it be Junie? Why is she marrying him?

Ye Fan was glaring at the photos on the screen like a madman, shocked. Disbelief struck him.

The gorgeous woman was Junie, who left without saying goodbye and came to India to take revenge.

How did she end up being Fen Tian's bride? What happened within these few days? Wait, something feels wrong.

After his brief shock, Ye Fan noticed something.

His eyes narrowed at the woman beside Fen Tian.

"Congratulations, King of India!"

"I wish the King of India a happy marriage on behalf of the Hutton family."

"On behalf of the Western Epea's royal family, I am here to congratulate you on this grand day."

Guests from every corner of the globe chorused their wishes to the couple.

Feeling the admiration gaze on him, Fen Tian merely glanced at them with arrogance.

"I thank you all for coming here today." His voice echoed across the castle at the wave of his arm.

The current Fen Tian was living at the peak of his life.

Power, women, status, and strength. These were what men had been chasing for their whole lives, and he had everything at that moment.

He possessed the strength of a Supreme and a stunning bride.

His life was complete and fulfilled.

Yet when Fen Tian was receiving the guests' wishes, suddenly, earsplitting sounds pierced a hole in the happy scenery.

A couple of figures from the crowd charged toward the couple at breakneck speed and immediately encircled Fen Tian the moment they revealed themselves. They were dressed in robes and had a golden lightning bolt tattoo between their brows.

"Fen Tian, you betrayed your faction and murdered your masters and comrades. To this very day, you still hold the Elysian Master captive!

"I'm here, under my master's dying order, to get rid of you and clear the faction of any despicable members like you!" shouted one of the robed men.
