Mrs. and Mr. Smith

Hugh Taylor and his two bodyguards quickly appeared at the door.

The door was purposely left open, as if deliberately waiting for him.

This made Hugh Taylor feel somewhat surprised.

Ethan Smith hurriedly stood up, walked forward and said, “Nice to see you,

Uncle Taylor.”

Hugh Taylor ignored him and went straight to sit down on the sofa. A bodyguard next to him then lit a cigar for him.

It was impossible not to be nervous in the face of such a character, but Ethan tried his best to remain calm.

Hugh Taylor took a puff on his cigar and then said indifferently, “You knew I was coming, didn’t you?”

“No, I didn’t know,” Ethan shook his head.

“I just happened to see you outside the window.”

Hugh Taylor couldn’t help but laugh. He slowly got up, walked to Ethan, and asked bluntly, “What makes you think you deserve to be with my daughter?”

Ethan was stunned.

This question was indeed difficult for him to answer.

Right now, Ethan was in no way worthy of Emily Taylor. Their social status and background were worlds apart

Hugh Taylor couldn’t help but shake his head. He slowly stood up and whispered, “It seems Emily overestimated you.”

“Uncle Taylor,” Ethan finally spoke up at this moment.

He took a deep breath and said, “I may be nothing now, but give me a year, and

I will prove that I’m worthy of Miss Taylor.”

“A year?” Hugh Taylor narrowed his eyes and then said coldly, “Why should I wait for you for a year? What makes you think you deserve a year’s time?” Ethan looked at Hugh Taylor and said word by word, “I’m worth the wait.” “Hahahaha!” Hugh Taylor couldn’t help but burst into loud laughter.

“Youth, you’ve lived in River City for too long, having a frog’s perspective! How much of the real world have you actually seen?” Hugh Taylor said coldly.

Ethan clenched his teeth and said, “Uncle Taylor, with time, people change dramatically! My achievements might be insignificant in your eyes now, but nobody can deny my future!”

“Oh?” Hugh Taylor raised his eyebrows.

He was about to leave, but stopped his steps.

“Don’t think I don’t know about you, ” Hugh Taylor said coldly.

“Your only bragging point now is your martial skills, right?” Hugh Taylor squinted his eyes, seemingly to see through Ethan.

Ethan didn’t deny it.

As Hugh Taylor said, currently, Ethan could only rely on his martial skills and cultivation techniques.

Seeing this, Hugh Taylor snorted, “Your martial skills are nothing in my eyes! Any of the people around me can easily kill you!”

As soon as his words fell, a bodyguard next to Hugh Taylor stepped forward and coldly said, “My name is Cato Cain, Mr. Taylor’s bodyguard.” After speaking, Cato Cain beckoned to Ethan with provocation in his face.

Ethan stood still without moving.

He knew very well that he was no match for Cato Cain.

“What, even scared to make a move?” Hugh Taylor said coldly.

Hearing this, Ethan immediately clenched his fist.

He stared at Cato Cain in front of him, his eyes filled with fighting spirit!

In fact, Ethan was also eager to know how powerful these so-called top experts really were!

Seeing Ethan’s reaction, Cato Cain couldn’t help but sneer.

He beckoned to Ethan again, saying, “Show me your best skills and let me see what you’ve got.”

Ethan took a deep breath, mobilized the qi within his body, and raised his energy to its peak.

“Mr. Swallow, I have to apologize in advance,” Ethan said with some anticipation.

“Cato, be mindful, ” Hugh Taylor reminded at this time.

Hugh Taylor was also somewhat helpless. Normally, he wouldn’t blink an eye if

Ethan was killed. However, this young man happened to be the one Emily liked. If something really happened to him, his daughter might hate him for the rest of her life.

Cato Cain nodded and said, “Yes, Mr. Taylor.”

After finishing, Cato Cain beckoned to Ethan again.

Without any hesitation, Ethan roared and rushed towards Cato Cain with his fists!

This punch was incredibly fast, and its power was unimaginable! Ethan almost used all of his strength, wanting to prove himself!

However, just as his fist was about to hit Cato Cain, Cato Cain dodged it with

“How…how is it possible!” Ethan’s face turned extremely ugly!

“Come on,” Cato Cain said, his eyes full of mockery.

Ethan clenched his teeth, roared, and charged at Cato Cain once again!

This time, Ethan used both his fists and feet, reaching peak speed!

In the blink of an eye, Ethan had thrown dozens of punches!

However, what made Ethan despair was that not one of those punches even touched Cato Cain’s clothes, instead, they exhausted him almost to the point of collapse!

Ethan gasped for air and his forehead was covered in beads of sweat.

On the other hand, Cato Cain seemed composed and steady.

“Humph, is that all you’ve got?” Cato Cain sneered.

“If this is the best you can do, I suggest you give up early,” Hugh Taylor also said coldly.

“Your martial skills… are hardly worth mentioning in the Capital City! Any elegantly dressed young man is thousands of times better than you!” Hugh Taylor shouted!

Ethan’s face turned extremely ugly. He gritted his teeth, feeling extremely unwilling!

“Let’s go again!” Ethan roared and charged at Cato Cain once more!

But the result was the same. No matter how hard Ethan tried, he couldn’t touch a single hair on Cato Cain!

Cato Cain stood there, hands behind his back, allowing Ethan to attack him without making a move!

“How is this possible!” Ethan couldn’t help but roar in anger repeatedly!

He knew there was a gap between him and Cato Cain, but he didn’t expect the gap to be that huge!

“Too weak, too weak,” Cato Cain dodged and shook his head, not bothering to hide the ridicule in his eyes.

“Are you even worthy of having Miss Emily wait for you with these skills?” Cato Cain sneered.

“You should just stay in your River City and be honest. Miss Emily should be with someone outstanding,” Cato Cain sneered.

“Shut up!”

Suddenly, Ethan roared. His whole body’s energy climbed instantly, and he smashed his fist towards Cato Cain’s cheek with a “bang”! The sudden increase in speed caught Cato Cain completely off guard!

This punch landed squarely on Cato Cain’s face!

Cato Cain couldn’t help but step back, his face turning a mixture of anger and disbelief!

On the other hand, Hugh Taylor seemed faintly interested.

Ethan stood in the distance, gasping for breath.

He grinned and said, “Turns out you’re not invincible after all…hehe….”
