Chapter 1509


    After Vera and Salman entered the Xu Mansion, their expressions were heavy as they quickened


    their footsteps.


    Once they entered the main hall, servants came forward and immediately served them with tea.


    However, Vera and Salman couldn''t sit still at all. They shrugged the servants away and headed to


    the room.


    "Is my father in? I want to see him!" Vera ordered.


    "Old Master is resting. Miss Xu, Mr. Zheng, you—" A maid stood in front of Vera, blocking her way.


    Angered, Vera couldn''t help but lower her voice, "What are you going to do? Stop me? I want to


    meet my own father, but you''re stopping me. Do you know what you are doing?"


    The maid looked nervous, but she stood still and did not leave her stance, exining, "Miss, the Old


    Master is really resting. Director Xu ordered us not to disturb the Old Master''s rest."


    "I am his daughter and the sister of Director Xu. How am I a disturbance? Get out of my way!"


    Pissed off, Vera was so infuriated that she raised her hand and was about to p the maid.


    However, at this moment, an elder in his fifties walked out and chuckled, "Miss Vera, the Old Master


    received your callst night and learned about Young Master Keith. He didn''t sleep well all night and


    has just fallen asleep. Miss Vera, please wait a moment and allow the Old Master to sleep a little


    longer."


    "Is that so? Warner, you''re not lying to me, are you?" Vera red at the old housekeeper vigntly.


    The old butler quickly cupped his hands and said, "I wouldn''t dare. How could I dare lie to Miss


    Vera."


    Vera wanted to probe further, but next to her, her husband Salman pulled her close and whispered


    to his wife. Finally, the two did not break into the room but sat down in the living room.


    Meanwhile, in the Xu Mansion''s master bedroom, Pascha was sitting on the edge of the bed. He


    was well dressed and looked solemn, not looking like he was going to sleep or rest at all.


    In front of Pacha, there was a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes in his fifties, wearing a


    pair of sses.


    The man was none other than Felix, Pascha''s son. He was also Vera''s younger brother, who served


    in the Industrial and Commercial Bureau of Southzobe City.


    Pascha nced at his son and said, "Felix, tell me, what are the reasons for Vera and Salman to be


    here?"


    Felix paused slightly before saying, "Yesterday, Salman brought Keith back from the district


    overnight. I heard that Keith''s legs were broken, and he is still being treated in the hospital. I think


    Vera and Salman must havee for this matter!"


    Speaking of that, the old man''s face darkened slightly. He said, "Someone injured Keith. Vera called


    mest night to inform me about this. If it was an ordinary person who did it, the couple would have


    solved it by themselves. Now that they have came to find me, it must be someone difficult to deal


    with!"


    Felix nodded. "Dad, it''s true. I asked someone to investigate. This time, Salman took Keith to


    Zobery District. He was there to initially support the Chai Family and take part in thentern festival.


    Unexpectedly, the Moo family invited a Martial Arts Master and eventually defeated the Chai Family.


    Keith was also implicated, and his legs were broken."


    "No wonder! He met a Martial Arts Master!" Old Master nodded, and then his gaze turned cold,


    muttering, "But even if he is a Martial Arts Master, it''s a bit too much for him to hurt my grandson!"


    Felix sensed his father''s anger and coaxed, "Dad, we haven''t figured out what happened, so I don''t


    rmend we fight at will. After all, we shouldn''t underestimate the influence of a Martial Arts


    Master."

    Pascha nodded and continued, "What do you think Vera is here for?"


    Felix paused for a moment and hesitated for a while. Then, he said, "Dad, you know Vera''s temper.


    She has always been hot-tempered and dotes on Keith very much. This time, she is definitely here


    to ask for your help to deal with the Martial Arts Master and the Moo family."


    "On one hand, we haven''t figured it out yet, so it''s unwise for us to take action. On the other hand,


    you just retired from themerce department. If you return to Zobery District now, I''m afraid that it


    will cause a heated discussion. Also, forget it..."


    When it came to the third point, Felix paused and waved his hand. He didn''t go on.


    Hearing this, Pacha looked at his son and ordered, "The first two points are quite reasonable. Since


    you''re already nning to talk about the third point, go on!"


    "Father, it''s nothing much. It''s just a few small matters with Vera and Salman. It''s no big deal," he


    said.


    Pascha instructed, "Don''t hesitate in front of me. Say whatever you want to. Don''t hide it from me."


    "Then-" After a pause, Felix continued, "Dad, Salman is a capable man. In only 20 years, he has


    expanded the Zheng family so much. At the same time, he is also changing the political business.


    Now, he has be the deputy president of the Ministry of Commerce and an executive board


    member in the Industrial and Commercial Association. He ispetent."


    "But, sometimes Salman can be too smart. What''s more, Vera is so hot-tempered that she would


    take action when triggered by the smallest thing. I''m afraid that Vera is too impulsive this time."


    Pascha listened to his son''s words. After a moment, he looked at Felix and said, "What do you


    mean? This time, it''s Salman who dragged Vera here? Why did he do this?"


    Felix said, "Dad, it''s just my personal guess. I think the most important reason why Salman did this


    is that he wants to avenge his son. What''s more, as far as I know, the Zheng family has invested a


    lot in the Chai family at the district this time. The Chai family was defeated this time, and the Zheng


    family has also suffered a great loss." "Moreover, the Moo family is still expanding and is gradually


    beginning to put pressure on the Zheng family. I''m afraid that Salman is under a lot of stress, so he


    wants to borrow some of your power to help him out."


    Pascha listened quietly. He was silent but nodded inadvertently. Obviously, he agreed with his son.


    After a pause, Pacha said, "In that case, we won''t see them today. Ask them to leave."


    "Dad, I think it''s better to meet them!" Felix suggested.


    "Why is that?" Pacha looked at his son.


    He immediately exined, "Dad, you know Vera''s temper. If you don''t meet her today, she might


    really break in and make a mess."


    "Also, I''m also a little selfish. If you don''t meet Vera and Salman, I''m worried that Vera and her


    husband will misunderstand me. After all, since what happened at Mandell''s vist time, Vera and


    I have had our disagreements."
