The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt)



"Doctor Jaber, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Come, come in."NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

Dominic was full of enthusiasm. He held Haylan's hand and pulled Haylan inside.

The more he looked at Haylan, the more he found him pleasing to the eye.

Haylan was young, handsome, and promising. Not only did he have godly medical skills, but he was also extremely powerful in terms of martial arts. He could kill multiple men sent by the Four Kings on his own. He was also many times more powerful than Killian Zane. He would wake up from his dreams laughing if such a young talent became his grandson-in-law.

"Mr. Zabel, I can walk on my own." Haylan smiled bitterly.

"Today's banquet is specially hosted for you. You must sit beside me. I'll introduce you to my granddaughter later. She's lively and cheerful. I think you'll definitely like her." Dominic was overjoyed.

Shawn and Lucy were speechless.

"What happened to respecting Grace's choice?" they thought.

Haylan had no choice but to let the old man pull him to the large table.

When they reached the table, he realized that Dominic had not only invited him, but he had also invited Perry Felicia and Noah Wrinkler.

Noah and Perry were also sitting on the main seats. Their expressions were restrained, and they were a little uneasy and flattered.

Over the years, the two of them had experienced the painful life of the people at the bottom. Their youthful arrogance had long been completely worn away.

They no longer had the lofty aspirations of their youth, nor did they have that kind of toughness and unyieldingness. They no longer thought of themselves as the greatest in the world. Now that they were sitting among a group of the Zabel family's big shots, they kept feeling like they were out of place.

After seeing Haylan coming over, the two of them heaved a sigh of relief. They immediately waved at Haylan as if they had found their pillar of support. "Haylan, over here."

Haylan smiled and immediately walked toward them.

At this moment, Shawn also came forward and said with a smile, "Mr. Jaber, you came at the right time. We've been waiting for you for a long time. Come, come, take a seat quickly."

Under their enthusiastic welcome, Haylan sat beside Noah and Perry.

Noah's eyes lit up when he saw Haylan sit down. He said softly, "Haylan, you came at the right time. We were so nervous just now."

"I feel uncomfortable sitting here," Perry added.

After a day or two of recuperation, although he was still very thin and weak, his complexion was much better and not as pale as before.

"Actually, you don't have to be so nervous. Just treat it as having a meal with a friend." Haylan smiled.

"What do you mean there's no need to be so nervous? This is the Zabel Village. Moreover, there are so many big shots here. These people are influential figures in Lightdom City. The city shakes when they stomp their feet," Perry explained.

"If this was in the past, we won't be qualified to meet them at all. It's all thanks to you that we can sit on the same people with them," Noah whispered.

Haylan had sent the two of them to live in Zabel Village. Dominic wanted to thank Haylan, and so he would not forget to invite Haylan's friends. He immediately invited the two of them over and served them well.

Before Haylan arrived, he even arranged for a professional masseuse to massage Perry's muscles and try his best to improve Perry's condition.

Even Perry was a little flattered by such treatment.

Therefore, he looked at Haylan with gratitude.

If it weren't for Haylan, he would never have enjoyed such treatment in his life.

"What are you talking about? We're brothers. We have gone through hardships together, and so we'll share the blessings too," Haylan said with a smile.

While they were talking, Dominic, Shawn, and Lucy took their seats.

The big shots of Zabel family also sat down, but their gazes fell on Haylan. They sized him up and discussed.

"Is this the divine healer who saved Dominic? I thought he was an old man. How is he so young?"

"Could it be that it was luck he managed to save Dominic?"

"I think that's possible. After all, he's too young. He doesn't look like a divine healer."

"I think that we shouldn't judge a book by its cover. Perhaps this Haylan is really capable. We mustn't underestimate him."

"I heard that there are always geniuses in other influential families. These people might be young, but they are much more impressive than many of the older generation. Perhaps this Haylan is also a genius!"

The older generation all looked at Haylan. Some suspected him, some despised him, and some felt that Haylan might really be capable.

Everyone sat down. Dominic looked around and his expression darkened when he saw that Grace had not come out. He immediately whispered to Lucy, "Lucy, quickly call your sister over."

Although Lucy did not agree with the old man's "arranged marriage", she did think that Haylan was a good candidate.

If Haylan and Grace got together, she would also approve of this marriage.

Therefore, as soon as the old man finished speaking, she immediately stood up and walked into the villa.

"What's wrong? Is there anyone else who hasn't arrived yet?" Haylan asked.

"It's fine, it's fine. Let's eat first." Dominic laughed and called for Haylan and the others to start eating.

Lucy jogged all the way out of the main hall. After passing through another corridor, she finally reached room Grace and rushed in. "Grace, the banquet is about to begin."

However, she was stunned when she saw Grace. "Grace, why aren't you changing?"

Grace lay on the bed and played with her phone. As she played, she said disdainfully, "Why should I change my clothes? Grandpa asked me to go out clearly because he wants to introduce me to some eligible bachelor. "It's my love! I make my own decisions!

"I don't need Grandpa and Dad's arrangements. I won't see those people!

"Lucy, you came at the right time. Go and tell Grandpa that my stomach is not feeling well. Tell him that I'm having diarrhea. and I won't be attending the banquet."

As she spoke, she sent a message to a friend on WhatsApp. "How is it? Did you find anything about Haylan?"

She had been asking her good friend to investigate Haylan as soon as she met him.

As for the eligible bachelor that Dominic wanted to introduce to her, she couldn't be bothered to take a look.

To her, those rich people, those young masters, and those business geniuses were not important. What was important was that they had to be powerful. Their martial arts prowess and stamina had to be stronger than hers. Lucy was speechless.

She thought, "Diarrhea?

"You have the cheek to come up with such an excuse?

"She was clearly trying to disgust Mr. Jaber!"

She was slandering Grace in her heart, but she did not show it on her face. She said, "Grace, the man Grandpa is going to introduce to you today is great. He must be your type."

"Oh? Then can he deadlift 450 pounds?" Grace asked.

Lucy's expression darkened.

She knew that Haylan was very strong, but she did not know if he could lift 450 pounds.

However, her sister's attitude made her very uncomfortable.

She took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Grace, although you don't like arranged marriages, you still have to pay attention to Grandpa's reputation. He has always doted on you, and he has made you very willful! "Now, he's throwing a banquet to thank his savior, but you're pretending to be sick and won't come out to meet him. Isn't that a little too much?"
