Chapter: 1526
While he was talking, Mateo walked over to Liam. Mateo hugged Liam enthusiastically,
smacking the latter�s back playfully. �Kiddo, you�re back! Looks like you still have a heart, eh? Master always talks about you, so he�s going to be so happy you�re back.�
�Of course! Master is like a father to me, after all, so I have to come back and see him.�
Liam said to Mateo with a smile.
�Pfft!� Renee stifled her laughter as she recalled how anxious Liam had been ten minutes earlier. Now, he looked like he was returning to a beloved hometown-he really was skilled at acting!
Renee�s laughter caught Mateo�s attention, and he frowned in displeasure. He glared at her fiercely, sizing her up as if he wanted to teach her a lesson. �Who is this woman? Was she laughing at me?�
�This is the woman I always talked about. She�s Renee Everheart, my beloved goddess. She�s now my girlfriend. I brought her here for you, Master, and Joanne to see�� Liam said and held Renee�s shoulders affectionately. �She laughed because she was happy, not because she was laughing at you.�
Mateo was still unconvinced, and narrowed his eyes at Renee suspiciously. �Is that so?�
�Umm� Yes.� Renee did not want to create trouble, so she just nodded.
�You know that Master doesn�t like to meet irrelevant people. It�s fine if she�s your girlfriend, but if she�s here with ulterior motives, there�s gonna be trouble for her� and for you,� Mateo warned menacingly.
�Yes, I know.�
�Let�s go. Master�s ordered a huge feast to be served. He�s eager to meet his disciple!�
Both Renee and Liam arrived at a fort belonging to Benjamin Jenkins, Liam�s master, under Mateo�s lead. The fort was far from the city center, and was protected by armed guards and strict security procedures. Hence, a lot of people addressed Benjamin as Draco, symbolising that he was the king there that nobody dared to offend.
The car stopped before the fort, and the armed guards frisked Renee and Liam before allowing them to enter the fort.
A butterfly knife that Renee had brought with her had been confiscated. It meant that she would have no chance to fight back if she had a conflict with them.
She was at their mercy.
As they walked into the rainforest-like fort, the villagers there eyed them coldly. It made Renee feel like they had entered a cannibal village.
Renee anxiously swallowed. She finally understood why Liam had been so worried.
Liam could sense her anxiety, and reassuringly nudged her shoulders.�
Boss, there�s no need to be so nervous. You have me!�
"I�m not nervous. It�s just that� I think things are getting interesting now.� Renee had left
that circle for many years, so she rarely experienced risky situations like this. She suddenly felt like she had entered an adventure game, and adrenaline was pumping in her veins.
Benjamin lived in the center of the fort. Although the large reception hall was not as
luxurious as a five-star hotel, it was still magnificent, with plenty of armed guards around.
Benjamin sat at the main seat in the reception hall, looking like an amiable old man in a casual floral shirt. He even had a white beard. When he saw Liam, he smiled happily. JrNovels.com
