Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 1214
There was complete silence in the hall. The Soo family members were all speechless.
Fade glanced at the stunned group, then looked at Momo and Ernest, and said, "Let's go!"
The two nodded and followed Fade, ready to leave.
Seeing what was going on, the Soo family members looked worried.
Somoset and the others looked at each other. Finally, Lyla forced a smile and stood up. She said, "Momo, today is New Year's Eve. Please stay and have dinner with us."
Somoset also quickly persuaded, "Ernest, it was a misunderstanding just now. Let's have dinner together?"
Both Ernest and Momo did not respond. They just gave them a cold stare and then looked at Fade.
When Somoset, Lyla, and the others saw this, they felt anxious. They knew that if Ernest and Momo left the Soo family that moment, it almost meant that they had severed their ties with the Soo family.
It also meant that the remaining Soo family would not be able to have a relationship with Master Chen.
They might even become enemies, which was something that the Soo family would never want to happen.
Therefore, Somoset and Lyla desperately wanted Momo and Ernest to stay. They hoped to seize the opportunity to make up with Master Chen and get on his good side.
However, it seemed Ernest and Momo were reluctant and would not budge easily.
Feeling apprehensive, Somoset and Lyla turned their gaze toward Master Soo, hoping he could persuade them.
"Dad, you're the head of the family. Please say something!"
"Yes, Dad. You made a wrong decision, so now is the time to explain."
Egbert, who had always been stubborn and proud, heard his children's grumbles and urges, and his eyes twinkled.
However, his expression turned grim instantly as he looked towards the door. He took a step forward and finally said, "Momo, I have made a mistake. It was my fault for not investigating clearly, causing all this to happen."
"Now that it has been clarified, I agree to all the things you mentioned before. You and your father should be back with us!" Master Soo said.
It was rare for Master Soo to admit defeat. After all, he hadn't admitted his mistake for decades since he took the position. But now he was willing to admit his mistakes to a junior.
Unfortunately, he was the only one who thought that his apology was sincere enough. To Fade and Memo, it sounded more like an annoyance than an apology. They looked even more displeased. Ernest held his daughter in his arms and patted her back to comfort her.
However, Fade sneered and looked at Egbert. He said in a low voice, "Mistake? Do you even believe what you've just said?"
Egbert's expression stiffened up and contorted hideously.
Fade did not care about his expression and continued to say coldly, "If you continue being stubborn, I would only regard you as an old fool. But now that you see there is much to gain, you change your standpoint shamelessly. You really have no shame and people like you don't deserve to be Memo's grandfather."
At that, Fade looked at Momo and said, "Momo, let's go!"
Momo paused for a moment, but in the end, she did not look back. She nodded and left with Fade. Ernest immediately followed behind.
Behind them, Egbert and the others watched them leave the hall. Their faces fell and finally they took a long sigh. Everyone slumped to the ground.
Egbert's face became ghastly pale. He looked up at the sky and sighed, "I'm to be blamed for the fall of the Soo family. It's my fault!"
Behind him, Somerset and the others wanted to say something, they just could not figure out what to say anymore. In the end, they could only let out a regretful sigh.
The Soo family New Year's Eve dinner party came to a very unexpected end.
After the dinner, the Soo family announced that they would not entertain any more visitors. The family estate diminished completely and they instantly adopted a low profile.
As for Fade, after leaving with Momo, they temporarily stayed in the house provided by Andrew Xu.
Fade and Momo were disappointed with Egbert and the other's behaviors. He and Momo no longer wanted to stay in the Soo family.
As for what they wanted to do moving forward, Fade and Momo would ponder about it. Fade
would help in any way he could, whether it was business development or learning martial arts.
However, as Ernest and Momo had just left the Soo family, they still needed time to let their emotions settle. Therefore, Fade did not force them to make decisions quickly and let them take their time. While Ernest and Momo were resting, Fade approached Dacia.
Fade did not let Dacia leave after defeating him. Instead, brought him home.
There was an incident involving a factotum disciple of the Wushuang Tower who claimed to possess the Hallow Ice Spring. The disciple wanted to swindle Fade for his treasure, and he still remembered the incident well.
Since he had Dacia, Fade wanted to find out what happened.
After hearing Fade out, Dacia didn't dare to hide anything and told him everything he knew.
It turned out that Dacia and his group were all out here because they were following his senior brother, Callum.
Callum, who had trained in Wushuang Tower for ten years, could be considered a talented disciple. He was only twenty but had reached the early phase of the Earth Level. He was ranked 38th on the Martial Dragon List.
Last month was time for Callum to venture out for training.
Callum brought a few internal disciples and a group of factotum disciples out of the Wushuang Tower. They came out to gain experience, and ended up challenging and defeating many martial arts masters from all over the world.
Eventually, he reached South Bay City. Callum unintentionally found a treasure spot and discovered that there might be a Heaven Level treasure, the Hallow Ice Spring, hidden there. Callum guarded the treasure and led the group to dig the treasure out...
While Callum was digging for treasure, he sent his subordinates, Dacia, Dorias, and the others to collect the materials needed to break the formation protecting the treasure.
However, Callum didn't expect that Dorias would be killed by Fade because he coveted Fade's treasures by claiming to possess the Hallow Ice Spring.
Dacia had gone to the Soo family to covet the benefits promised by them, which finally led them to where they were.
After listening to Dacia's explanation, Fade's eyes lit up with interest. "Hallow Ice Spring. Tell me, where is the treasure that Callum has found?"
