Hearing this, Bailey's face changed, but then she growled in a low voice, "It's none of your business. You should leave now."

Qiana also shouted at the top of her voice, "Melanie is about to get married. You'd better leave her immediately."

Seeing this, Fade's face fell and he said, "A few months ago, when we were in Dragonville, I promised her that no one can force her to marry someone she doesn't like, including your family!" "What do you mean?" Qiana shouted at Fade, "She belongs to our family. We have our own ways of settling things. It has nothing to do with you."

Hearing this, Fade's expression became stern. He looked at Qiana and said, "Remember. Even as the elder members of the family, you can't force her to do the things she doesn't like."

"Don't meddle in our affairs. The juniors in a family are obliged to listen to their elders!" Qiana shouted.

Hearing Qiana's words, Fade felt it was ridiculous.

If this woman was not dressed in modern clothes, Fade would think that she was an old hag from ancient times. The kind of woman who spouted superstitions weaved by the older generations to keep children out of trouble! It was preposterous!

Fade knew that it was useless to say anything more to Qiana. Her old-fashioned mind was impenetrable with a mere few words.

Therefore, he stopped arguing. His face darkened and he said in a cold voice, "I want to see Melanie."

"That cannot be done," Qiana immediately refused firmly.

Bailey's eyes darkened and showed a look of displeasure. Then, she glanced at Shelton and said to Fade, "Mr. Chen, this is not possible. And we will not allow it. Now leave!"

"In that case, I will seek her out on my own!" Fade insisted coldly. He then raised his voice, "Melanie, it's me, Fade. I'm here to see you, I-"

As soon as they saw Fade shouting, Bailey and Qiana's expressions suddenly changed. They quickly shouted, "Shut up."

Qiana was even more riled up, "Guards!"

Suddenly, with a crash, around eight bodyguards in black rushed over and surrounded Fade.

Bailey said, "Mr. Chen, please leave now, otherwise, don't blame us for being rude."

Fade was not afraid at all. He shook his head, glanced at Qiana, and said, "If you know who I am, you should know that these people can't stop me. Hearing this, Qiana went blank. After all, she had witnessed Fade's fight on the ship when she participated in the Martial Arts Convention in Dragonville. Although she was not a martial arts practitioner, she knew that his strength was extraordinary.

Thinking of this, she whispered something in Bailey's ear.

Upon hearing this, Bailey's face darkened and she hesitated. But she still didn't want to retreat, "Mr. Chen, I know you are a martial-arts Master. But are you forgetting where you are right now?" "This is Yudson City, and the Yue family is not far away from here. The bodyguards in this villa were also arranged for us by them. If you take action, the Yue family Needless to say, Bailey was threatening him. Fade, however, was not afraid at all. He said, "You are Melanie's elders. I don't want to attack you."

Upon hearing this, Bailey's eyes flashed, and a fierce look appeared on her face. She waved her hand and said, "Throw him out."

Immediately, several bodyguards rushed over and were about to attack him.

Fade's eyes turned cold and he was about to make his move.

But at this time, Shelton was the one who rushed out first. He stopped several bodyguards, "Mr. Chen, go. Leave them to me."

The strength of these bodyguards was probably lower than Black Level but at the peak of the Yellow Level. For Shelton, who was at the mid-tier of the Black Level, it was not a big problem.

So, after hearing the words, Fade nodded and went straight into the villa.

Bailey and Qiana's faces changed when they saw this.

Bailey looked at Shelton and shouted, "Mr. Liu, are you going against the Yu family and the Yue family?"

When Shelton heard this, he could not help curling his lips and said in his heart, "The Yu and Yue families are nothing when compared to Mr. Chen's power."

Therefore, Shelton did not show any mercy at all. Instead, he executed fearsome moves and knocked several bodyguards to the ground.

On the other side, Qiana rushed to Fade. She spread her arms wide and stopped him as she glared, "You can't go in. Melanie will marry Yohannes, you-" "Move aside!" Fade shouted coldly.

Qiana remained planted as she continued, "She is already engaged to him. This was what has been decided by the elders of our Yu family. You can't..."

Smack!

Fade could not bother arguing with her. He directly slapped Qiana, sending her flying.

After that, Fade strode into the villa.

In the deeper parts of the villa, in a quiet bedroom, Melanie was sitting on the bed with a gloomy face. Her usually charming face was now gaunt and dull. Her face was even a little bit sallow, and her entire being was gloomy.

A woman in her fifties sat across Melanie. She was dressed in plain clothes with droopy eyebrows.

Looking at the haggard Melanie, the middle-aged woman couldn't help but feel distressed. She picked up her bowl and said softly, "Melanie, why don't you eat some food? You haven't eaten anything in two days. If it goes on like this, you will fall sick!"

Melanie looked at the woman in front of her and said, "Mom, this was your idea. I don't want to marry anyone from the Yue family, and I don't want to be with Yohannes. I didn't approve of this marriage in the first place."

The middle-aged woman was Melanie's mother, Rosy. Hearing this, she sighed softly, "Melanie, I know that you're not happy about this. But the marriage has been set, and it was decided by your grandfather himself. -"

Hearing this, Melanie frowned and said in a somewhat anxious voice, "Mom, this is the most important event in my life. How could Grandpa use me for their own gain, simply sending me off to another family?" "I, I understand. But we are not an ordinary family after all. That's why there are some things that we can only-" Rosy lowered her head and whispered, "No matter how, you should eat some food first!"
