Chapter 674: Meeting Charles Ziegler By Chance
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Connor was just about to go out with Quinn when he saw a large group of people walking toward him.
These people looked tall and strong, and their bulging muscles seemed to be about to burst their clothes.
When Connor saw the middle-aged man walking in front, he was shocked.
This middle-aged man was none other than Sabrina’s father, Charles Ziegler!
Earlier, Connor asked Thomas why Charles wasn’t there. He didn’t expect to bump into Charles as soon as he left the hotel.
Charles seemed to have seen Connor as well when Charles saw Connor, a strange look flashed in his eyes.
Then, he walked up to Connor and frowned, asking him, “What are you doing here?”
“Mr. Ziegler, I…” Connor opened his mouth and was about to speak.
However, Charles didn’t seem to want to continue talking with Connor. He didn’t allow Connor to speak and said coldly, “Don’t cause trouble here. Come here and look for me later. I have something to ask you!”
It was obvious that Charles felt that Connor was here to watch the show.
He asked Connor to come to him because he wanted to ask Connor about the jade bracelet.
After Charles said this, he did not give Connor any chance to speak and walked into the hotel.
Connor looked at Charles helplessly and turned to leave.
“Mr. Ziegler, who is that kid?”
After entering the hotel, a middle-aged man beside Charles asked Charles with a smile.
“He’s just a friend of my daughter’s. Get your men to help me keep an eye on him. If he encounters any trouble, remember to help him…”
Although Charles treated Connor coldly, he was still very concerned about Connor.
Lion City had more tourists than usual, and there were often fights. He was worried that Connor would encounter some trouble.
“Got it…” The middle-aged man hurriedly nodded.
This middle-aged man was called Silas Suarez. He was a well-known gangster in Lion City. He usually colluded with Sir Welsh, but Silas had influence in Lion City.
Charles was not in a good mood because he had noticed Quinn beside Connor.
Connor’s relationship with Madison was unclear. In addition, his daughter seemed to have feelings for Connor. Now, Connor was walking with another girl out of nowhere in Lion City. Connor’s relationship with the opposite sex was indeed a little complicated.
Therefore, Charles’s impression of Connor naturally worsened.
“Charles, come over here!”
At this moment, Kyle and Thomas walked out of the room toward Charles.
Although Thomas and Charles didn’t have a good relationship, Kyle and Charles had been good friends for many years.
Otherwise, Charles wouldn’t have brought his men here to help Kyle force his way into the tournament.
“Kyle, it’s been a while!” Charles walked up to Kyle and hugged him.
“When the martial arts competition ends, we must have a drink…” Kyle also replied happily. Then, he whispered to Charles, “Go and say hello to Mr. Morgan!”
Charles heard Kyle’s words and couldn’t help but turn to look at Thomas, who was next to him. He then whispered, “Mr. Morgan, it’s been a while!”
“You still can’t let go of what happened back then?” Thomas asked Charles with a smile.
“The master has already changed. As servants, what else can we not let go of? I have long let go of what happened back then…”
Although Charles no longer hated Thomas, his tone was stiff when he said this.
“The former chairman did it for our own good back then!” Thomas patted Charles’s shoulder and said softly.
“I understand…” Charles nodded gently, then looked at Thomas and asked, “Where is Mr. McDonald? I’ll go meet Mr. McDonald. I haven’t seen the heir of the former chairman yet!”
“You came at a bad time. Mr. McDonald just left but will probably return soon!” Thomas replied with a smile.
“Then, I’ll wait…” Charles said calmly.
“There’s still some time before the start of the martial arts tournament. Why don’t we go for a drink?” Kyle was happy to see that Charles and Thomas had reconciled.
For so many years, he had been stuck between them. He had always been in a difficult position. Now, he could finally take a breather.
“I’ll get the kitchen to prepare the food now!” After Sir Welsh heard Kyle’s words, he quickly said and then turned around to order the staff in the hotel to prepare the banquet.

Meanwhile, Connor and Quinn were strolling around the town.
There were many tourists in Lion City, and most of them were couples or friends.
After all, the martial arts tournament was exciting and could attract many rich people to spend money.
Quinn hesitated before turning to look at Connor. She whispered to Connor, “Mr. McDonald, do you know those people just now?”
“I do…” Connor nodded lightly.
“What are they up to? They looked very scary…” Quinn asked curiously.
“They are just some big shots…” Connor replied indifferently.
“The big shots who can participate in the martial arts tournament are not good people. My friends told me only the mafia bosses would participate in the martial arts tournament. Moreover, these are all demons who eat people without mercy. The police can’t control them. Last time, I had a friend whose legs were broken because he looked at one of them too hard. He’s still at the hospital now…” Quinn looked at Connor carefully.
Connor turned to look at Quinn. After all, Quinn was just a poor child from a small town.
In the eyes of those big shots, these people were like ants.
Even if their legs were broken, they had no place to seek justice, so what Quinn said was very common.
“Mr. McDonald, I think you’re a good person…” Quinn saw that Connor didn’t say anything and continued to speak to him.
“How am I a good person?” Connor looked at Quinn and smiled faintly.
“I just think that you’re a good person. I heard from my friends that those big shots like to touch us and don’t treat us as humans at all, but you don’t!” Quinn hurriedly replied.
