Lewis Martial Arts School dominated the whole of Spring Street at Martial Arts Road which was located
in the North Precinct of Paramount.
A sudden shout disrupted the peaceful surroundings of Lewis Martial Arts School. “This is bad!
Someone had beaten up and injured Tytus, Kytus, and Vytus!”
A flurry of footsteps followed as disciples, each surrounded by an intimidating aura, dashed out one by
one.
“Who is the b*stard that dared to hurt Tytus and the others?”
“How dare he hurt a member of Lewis Martial Arts School? Gather everyone!”
“Master and big brother are not here. Quick! We must inform Timothy!”
A gang of brutes with arms thicker than an ordinary man’s thigh shouted intimidatingly amongst
themselves.
Half an hour later, heavy rain started to from the sky, covering the earth with a white watery mist. Jerry

Jacob glanced at him before turning back to his daughter and gently wiping the gravy stain from her
lips with a clean napkin.
Franklin looked out the window and saw the heavy rain. He put down his cutlery and frowned. “Jay, I
don’t think the rain will stop any time soon. Why don’t we head home before it gets even heavier?”
“Dad, don’t worry about the rain.” Jacob caressed his daughter’s braided hair and said with a smile,
“We are in a hotel. There are many rooms for us to stay in.”
“Yes, it’s a five-star hotel!” Moira’s eyes brightened with delight.
Suzie tugged her husband’s hand under the table. “We don’t have anything of value at home, so it will
be fine if we stay here overnight.”
“In that case, I’ll ask someone to prepare the rooms.” Jacob smiled.
“Are we staying here tonight?” Janelle’s cheeks were still flushed as she hugged a wine bottle and said,
“Hehe, I even get to stay in a five-star hotel!”
Jacob saw that his sister was still drunk and shook his head disapprovingly. “Yes, you can stay here. If
you like, you can even stay here every day.”
“Every day!” Franklin widened his eyes. “Jay, I know you are doing well, but you shouldn’t waste money
like this!”
He looked at the table full of delicacies and wine and felt uncomfortable with the extravagance. “Even
the fruits alone must have cost a bomb. Never in my life have I seen or heard about these fruits until
today!”
Jacob shook his head and sighed. “It didn’t cost much.”
Jerry heard the conversation as he walked to the dining table. He arched an eyebrow and said, “Mr.
Lynch, did I not tell you that Jacob is the owner of this hotel?”
“What?” Franklin trembled with astonishment.
“You own the Pavillion?” Moira was in disbelief. “You’re lying! Florentine Group is the owner of this
hotel!”

outdated.”
Jacob glanced at Jerry and shook his head. Then, he turned to his father and said, “Dad, it’s only a
hotel. It’s nothing unusual. You all should stay here tonight. Don’t worry about anything.”
Franklin looked at Jacob and considered briefly before breaking out into a laugh. “Sure, I’ll accept your
generous offer and stay a night in this five-star hotel.”
Then, he turned to Victoria and frowned. “What about Victoria? Is it alright for her to not go home?
Wouldn’t her family worry about her? I think she should make a call first.”
Victoria answered calmly, “I live alone in Paramount.”
“You live alone?” Franklin was astonished.
Hearing that Victoria lived alone triggered Suzie’s maternal instinct. “Poor girl. Don’t be sad. You must
come to visit us whenever you can.”
What makes you think I’m sad? Victoria rolled her eyes.
