Chapter 1788
Macon looked down and said nothing. He was annoyed with Jasper, but he would be a fool to admit it here.
Next to Macon, Gregory wasted no tkissing up to Jasper as he said, "Why, of course. No one in the Six
Southern States would dare get in your way if you were to strike, Mr. Damron. You are a little young, but in a few
years, not even Levi will be able to take you down."
Jasper's pride swelled when he heard this, but he feigned modesty as he gave a dismissive hand wave. "Let's not
get ahead of ourselves. Levi is one of the Six Kings, after all, not to mention my elder. I'm sure he's much
stronger than | am. However, seeing as he and my grandfather have known each other for a while, he might just
pull back if | were to personally make a move!"
He might sound as though he was being modest, but he was gloating.
Gregory forced out a smile and said, "Naturally. Old Master Damron is a well-respected titan in Cathay, and his
legacy is legendary. No one in their right mind would offend him, and that goes for the Six Kings as well. By the
way, | heard that it was through Old Master Damron's arrangements that you got to train under the Martial
Emperor, Mr. Damron. Is that true?"

entertain a select few. My grandfather has known him for decades, so it's no surprise that the Martial Emperor
would do him a favor by takingin as a disciple."
Gregory's jaw dropped, and he quickly commented, "Old Master Damron certainly is a force to be reckoned
with!"
Jasper beamed proudly. With another wave of his hand, he said, "Anyway, you need not worry about Matthew
now that I'm here. Since he's gone to Times Hotel, we might as well check out the Lakeside Garden. The most
beautiful woman in Eastcliff, you say? Hah! I'd like to see what kind of crop this pathetic excuse of a city has to
offer."
Gregory laughed heartily, "I'm sure she must be quite beautiful if she could make Macon want to marry her-and
he's been single for decades."
Macon looked grim, but he said nothing. Gregory would never have spoken about Macon so casually in the past.
Still, Gregory's actions indicated that Macon had fallen from his pedestal. Someone powerless could not
command respect.
Jasper snorted upon hearing this. "You folks from Stonedale must be living under a rock if you are so impressed
by one woman's beauty."
"Well, I'm sure she's nothing like the women you have in Bainbridge," Gregory said amenably. "But in a small
town like ours, she'd be considered a delicacy. Perhaps you shouldn't knock it until you've tried it. Mr. Damron."
Jasper eyed him with amusement. "You're quite the salesman, Greg. | believe you should cback to
Bainbridge withafter this. We need a family doctor, anyway, and | can assure you that no one will dare lay a
hand on you if you stay with us."
Gregory was over the moon. He bowed in gratitude before Jasper and said, "Thank you, Mr. Damron. Thank you."
After that, they made their way to Lakeside Garden, where they found Matthew's men patrolling the area. Their
car had only just pulled up when a few men surrounded it and blocked it from going further. At this time, only the
owner of Lakeside Garden was allowed entry to the premises.
Just as Jasper was about to knock these men out, Gregory stopped him. Grinning, he said, "No, Mr. Damron, we
mustn't cause a scene. Lord Voodoo can take care of this. We aren't afraid of Matthew, of course, but we
wouldn't want to alarm Sasha and have her run away, otherwise we'd have cfor nothing."
Jasper considered this and nodded in agreement. "You're right. Very well, then. I'll leave this to you."
