Chapter 422: Chapter 422: A Battlefield Without Gunpowder

Xu Ke’s gaze landed on Ariel, his eyes lingering between Ariel and Xu Ke with a malicious gleam in them, but the worse the idea that brewed in his heart, the brighter the smile on his face, "What you want to introduce wouldn’t happen to be your daughter, Miss Ariel, would it?"

"Yes, I can proudly say, looking across the entire city, that my daughter Ariel’s appearance is flawless." Arthur spoke with a hint of pride.

"But I remember the relationship between Ariel and this man beside her isn’t ordinary, is it?" Xu Ke stroked his smooth chin and said. As Xu Ke’s words carried, his subordinates fixed their gaze on Xu Ke and Ariel, looking at them with a hostile demeanor, as if viewing a pair of adulterers, their gaze piercing. At the same time, their opinion of Arthur worsened, and a hot-tempered individual was already so angry that his cheeks turned red, indicating how upset he was by this piece of information.

Ariel’s exposed red lips slowly curled up, her eyes carrying a hint of coldness, "Father, he isn’t some unknown man. He is my man, your daughter’s man." Ariel’s uniquely sweet voice rang out. She didn’t care about other people’s eyes on her, but rather, boldly hooked her arm around Xu Ke’s, showcasing her intimacy with Xu Ke to everyone.

This was akin to an invisible slap, directly and resoundingly slapped across Arthur’s face without mercy.
