“Of course! I have a very good rtionship with my distant cousin since a young age. He told me that


    he has certain matters to handle right now, but he woulde to visit us once he settles everything!”


    Quintus smiled and said again, “Then again, it’d be great if the Novaks can solve everything without his


    help. After all, I wouldn’t want to owe him any favors.”


    Jada felt ted as she never expected that the Novaks would have such a rtionship with such a


    person. Her future would be even brighter if she could marry into their family in the future. After some


    thought, she said again, “You’re right, it’s best not to trouble them if we can help it. But he is your


    cousin anyway, so if you go to the Bards and tell them that you’re rted to a junior general, I’m sure


    they wouldn’t dare to help Severin!”


    Quintus smiled and said, “Yeah. I’ll just mention it in passing and give them some hints. That way, my


    cousin wouldn’t have toe forward. Besides, everything’s already nned out! When he visits us,


    our family will throw a big feast to wee him. When the timees, all those other upper-ss


    families and wealthy businessmen would certainly be more willing to cooperate with us in the future if


    they know that we have a rtive like that!”


    Before Quintus could continue, Jada could not resist interrupting. “And once that happens, your Novaks


    might be a first-tier family in Riverson within the next two years! Riverson is much bigger than


    Brookbourn, and if your family bes a first-ss family in Riverson, you’ll be able to earn a lot of


    money! All you need to do then is hire some more elite fighters! Even the Bards won’t be scared of


    you then!” After finishing her words, Jada smiled again and said tenderly to Quintus, “You have to


    protect my family when the Novaks get stronger, okay? I’m an only daughter, after all”


    “Haha, don’t worry! Your parents are my parents too!” Quintus hugged Jada as he said that and wanted


    to let his hands roam all over her body.


    However, Jada pushed him away and rolled her eyes at him. “Whoa there, tiger. What are you trying to


    do, huh?”


    Quintus had a lewd smirk as he said, “Come on, we’re getting married soon, anyway. Why won’t you let


    me touch you?”


    Jada immediately pouted and said, “Didn’t we agree that I’ll give it to you on the first night? It’s not time


    yet!” She then looked at him and could not help but say, “Look at you. Your face is blue and your nose


    is swollen. You won’t be able to kiss me even if I let you! It’s going to hurt really badly if you do.”


    Quintus still did not give up and continued to ask, “We don’t have to kiss. Why can’t we just go down to


    business?”


    Jada pinched his thigh and said, “Go down to business? You’re probably going to have a hard time


    eating. tonight! I’m going downstairs to buy some soup for you, and then I’ll go with you to the Bards


    tomorrow morning!”


    When Quintus heard this, he smiled again and said, “Well, since you’re nning toe with me to


    the Bards tomorrow morning, why don’t you sleep here tonight? I’ve already booked a room for you


    anyway.


    Jada, who had just walked to the door, turned around and smiled at Quintus. “Sure, but you’re not


    allowed to touch me or else I’ll punch your nose!” Jada opened the door and walked out immediately.


    “Pinch my nose…” Quintus shuddered instinctively. He stretched out his hand to touch his swollen nose


    and immediately winced in pain.
