Chapter 704


    In the end, Kelly had no other option but to return to Gold''s residence, with his gloomy face.


    The head of the Gold family frowned when Kelly appeared in his sight. He then asked," What''s the


    matter? You look upset!"


    "I went to Fane''s vi to persuade those bodyguards to leave Fane ande work with us. But


    everything is in vain!"


    Kelly exined, smiling bitterly.


    “Heh? Are you sure? How much do they earn per month now?"


    Ezra-the head of the Gold family-was slightly startled. The thought of an unsessful persuasion had


    never crossed his mind. Was it because Fane paid them incredibly high?


    "Only twenty thousand per month!"


    A wry smile on Kelly’s face as he responded.


    "Twenty thousand? Are you freaking kidding me? They only earn twenty thousand a month, and you


    couldn''t even get them to leave Fane? It should be a piece of cake!"


    Ezra''s facial expression morphed into one o f unpleasant surprise, his eyes were asrge as saucers.


    "Father, they imed proudly that they followed Fane because of his personal charm, and even if I''ve


    offered them half a million or even five million a month, they won''t budge in slightest!"


    Kelly added further, his smile bitter. "Ha! Personal charm, can you believe that?" Ezra''s mouth was


    immediately shut for a few seconds at Kelly’s im. "Personal charm? What bullsh*t reason is that? I


    think they probably have some romantic affair with Fane. Otherwise, how can they reject money?


    Which type of woman on earth doesn''t like money and branded bags? What a joke!"


    "Yeah, that’s what I thought too. But the real reason is not important anymore, it''s impossible to


    persuade these women to work for us!”


    Kelly heaved a deep sigh of defeat. It was obvious that he tried to suppress the disappointment within


    him.


    After all, if he were apanied by such a group of pleasing and lovely bodyguards, every existing


    man on the earth would look at him differently-admiration and approbation.


    At noon, Fane, Fiona, and the others headed to a high-ss restaurant in an opulent hotel, with a team


    of bodyguards together with them.


    "Master Fane, are you serious about treating us to lunch? You’re so generous!”


    Orchid could not conceal her smiles, obviously ted.


    "Of course! You helped me to give the Gold family an unforgettable lesson! And did you notice how


    snobbish and brazen he was before the duel? And how his expressions turned into one of those ugliest


    and gloomiest ones, ones that I''ve not been seeing in quite some time! I''m delighted!”


    Fane replied and a warm chuckle let out from his mouth.


    ''Ugh! I’m so frustrated! I’m at big loss! Last night was a priceless opportunity for me to showcase my


    ine, on the other hand, whined like a dog, then she shot Ben—who was sitting beside—a cold stare.


    "It’s all your fault! If I weren’t needed to protect you, I could''ve had a good fightst night! Ughh!"


    Ben shed her a bitter smile in return." Well, I didn''t ask you to protect me. You worry about me and


    you’re the one who insisted on following me!"


    "Hmph! If it weren’t for Master Fane, that h e worried about your well being and asked me to protect


    you, I didn''t even want to be near to you! And I still have to endure your vicious and venomous mouth


    every day when my job is only to protect you!


    ine sneered angrily.


    "Alright, alright. Don''t be mad. C''mon, I''ll pour you a drink. Thank you for being the most responsible


    bodyguard and for protecting me every day! Is that good now?"


    Ben signed in defeat. He opened a red wine and poured a ss for ine.


    "Hmph! At least you know how to say thank you!"
