Chapter 40 Flawless

 

At noon, Tobias, Morgan, and two respectable figures of the martial arts world gathered in the private room on the second floor of Sunshine Hotel.

 

The two respectable figures were martial arts masters from Fairlake. One of them was Phileas Wayne, while the other was Christopher Jean.

The age of those two would add up to more than two hundred years.

Tobias was wearing a traditional suit. He did not know martial arts, but he exuded an elegant and authoritative aura.

 

As for Morgan, even though he looked like he was in his fifties, he was already seventy years old. He was clad in a white training suit, and he had a buzz cut.

 

Morgan was experienced but restrained. Every move he made was smooth and effortless, showing that he was a true expert in martial arts.

Phileas and Christopher were both experts in internal-style martial arts.

 

As the four of them drank coffee together, Morgan said sincerely, “Tobias, all thanks to you this time.”

Tobias lifted his cup and tasted the coffee. Then he smiled slightly and replied, “You’re welcome. It’s no trouble at all. However, I can’t guarantee you Mr. Young would agree to wipe the slate clean.”

Morgan responded, “Old Mr. Peterson, you have already done us a big favor to invite Mr. Young here. I wouldn’t dare trouble you for anything else again.”

 

Morgan was merely an acquaintance to Tobias. In fact, he had used a lot of connections to be able to connect with Tobias.

Tobias flashed a smile and did not say anything further.

Not long after, the sound of footsteps echoed from outside.

Morgan’s eyes lit up. Immediately, he knew Leonardo had arrived. The moment the door opened, everyone including Tobias rose to their feet.

Even though Leonardo was younger than them, he was well known and an expert in martial arts. Therefore, it was only natural that they did not take him lightly.

Just then, Leonardo entered the room. He had come alone, holding a delicate gift box in his hand.

Clad entirely in white, he looked so stunningly handsome that he looked as if he had just walked out of a painting. Even men would feel somewhat flustered seeing him. That was why even someone as arrogant as Bianca would fall for him.

As soon as Leonardo stepped inside the private room, he immediately strode toward Tobias. “I’m sorry to be late, Old Mr. Peterson,” he apologized earnestly with his head inclined respectfully. He was so courteous that Tobias felt somewhat embarrassed.

Tobias hurriedly responded, “Not at all, Mr. Young. You are too polite.”
