Chapter 568 (2/2)
Oliver shook his head and said a little helplessly, “What are you being so impulsive for? Do you want to beat up that guy? Or are you going to question Lilia? You’re really childish. Before you deal with others, you must first find out his background.”
Kite asked puzzledly, “How do I do that?”
Oliver’s expression relaxed. He looked at Kite as if he were playing a game. To him, teasing the people under him was also considered to be an interesting game.
Oliver said, “There’s an attendance list for all the guests who are here today. Later on, I’ll get someone to check out the name of the guy who had came with Lilia. We’ll be able to find out then.
“These are all small matters. There are women anywhere. These are just two unimportant people, and we’ll be able to deal with them anytime.
“The crux is Bruce.
“I’ll be introducing you to Bruce today. So, I’m telling you, don’t mess things up.
“I brought up your name several times to him previously, and he’s willing to meet you. There’s no need for me to say more about how amazing Bruce is. You must perform well later.”
Kite nodded. Thinking of how he was going to meet Bruce very soon, nervousness flashed in his eyes.
Bruce was the Eldest Young Master of the Henry Clan, a top notch clan in the Northern Ice Region. There were two members of the clan from two generations who had been the Governor of the Northern Ice Region. After one hundred years in the Northern Ice Region, they had become a deeply rooted clan in this region and possessed great influence.
After the terms of the two Governors ended, the Henry Clan moved to the Northern Ice Region, instantly becoming the number one clan in the region.
It could be said that if one wished to stay in the Northern Ice Region, without the support from the Henry Clan, they would be in two different worlds.
Bruce, the Eldest Young Master in the Henry Clan, had already become a level 29 Conferred Knight despite his young age. Moreover, under his management, the Henry Clan’s ore businesses had taken up over 70% of the market share. He was now an overlord in the region, and even the current Governor had called to meet up many times. Bruce could really be said to be a master of both martial arts and literature.
Although Bruce had yet to fully take over the Henry Clan, everyone already considered him as the next clan head.
Kite followed his cousin, Oliver, to a corner on the lawn, where they saw many young masters and young ladies, each with a great air of nobility, surrounding around a young man.
This young man was wearing a dark golden suit and holding onto a scepter. There was also a ring with a green gemstone on his index finger. All of these together displayed the disposition, elegance, mystery, and low-profile dignity which were passed down through a 100-year-old aristocrat clan for decades through the generations.
He was Henry Clan’s current Eldest Young Master, Bruce.
Upon seeing Kite and Oliver, Bruce laughed out loud. “Look who’s here? My brother, Oliver.”
Just a simple line gave off a pleasant and comfortable feeling like enjoying a spring breeze. Bruce shared a light embrace with Oliver before turning to Kite and saying, “This must be the Kite whom you’ve often mentioned to me? I heard about the matter concerning the Black Quarry. You did quite a good job.”
Kite nodded, feeling a little overwhelmed by the flattery, and said, “You’re praising me too much. Compared to the magnificent work you’ve done with the canal, what I’ve done is nothing.”
“Don’t be nervous. You’re Oliver’s brother, so that means that you’re one of us.” Bruce patted Kite’s shoulder warmly, closing in the gap between them. He was truly a born leader.
