"Sienna."
Xavier held the little girl, murmuring softly, his eyes filled with excitement.
Sienna should actually be Sienna Xavier!
This little girl was bought by the middle-aged woman from the Lewis family members in the private room. Who in the Lewis family has the surname '*'?
The answer is obvious.
"My daughter..." His heart trembled.
"After you're done looking, hurry up and give the child back to me. I spent a hundred thousand to buy her. If you don't return her, I'll call the police to arrest you."
"Help, someone's trying to snatch a child! Is there no justice left?"
The middle-aged woman opposite Xavier kept shouting, finally drawing the Lewis family members out of the private room.
"What's all the noise about? Don't you see we're entertaining the future son-in-law? If you disturb my family's future son-in-law, can you afford it?"
"Hurry up and take the little girl away, don't show up here again."
Lucy's expression changed slightly as she appeared at the door, recognizing the troublemaker.
"How dare you say that, selling this little girl to me, and she ran back on her own, and now a man shows up claiming to be her father, trying to take the child away. If you don't resolve this, give me back my hundred thousand." The middle-aged woman shouted angrily.
"What father of the little girl, her father died long ago, there's no father..." Lucy said casually, turning her gaze to Xavier.
At that moment, Xavier, holding the little girl, turned to look at Lucy, his expression calm but laced with sarcasm as he spoke, "When did I die? Why don't I know... Mom!"
This sarcastic "Mom" made Lucy's face change dramatically, "Xavier, why are you back..."
Before she finished speaking, she immediately covered her mouth, closed the private room door, rushed up, and whispered angrily, "You leech, showing up now, what do you mean?"
"Are you deliberately trying to ruin my daughter's marriage?"
"Don't even try! As long as I'm here, no one will stop Mr. Rivers from marrying my daughter."
As she spoke, she tried to push Xavier away.
However, Xavier stood firm, his seemingly thin body like a towering mountain, his expression slightly cold as he spoke, "Is Sienna my daughter?"
At the moment he asked, his whole body tensed up.
"What daughter, she's got nothing to do with you, nor with my daughter."
While denying it, Lucy turned her gaze to the middle-aged woman, "Our transaction was completed long ago. If you don't want the child, the money won't be returned to you."
"Hurry up and give the child back to me."
As soon as she said this, the middle-aged woman became visibly tense, lunging at Xavier to snatch the little girl.
"Get lost."
With a cold glare, Xavier kicked the middle-aged woman, sending her sprawling.
Then, without paying attention to the middle-aged woman who had fainted on the ground, he held his daughter, his gaze cold as he looked at Lucy.
Lucy’s reaction had already explained everything!
Sienna was indeed his daughter!
Quinton, the Lord of Northia and unparalleled war god, his daughter, the most noble little princess in the world, had been sold for ten thousand dollars!
His emotions churned with uncontainable anger!
"What are you staring at, you scoundrel? Haven't seen you in years, and you've grown bold, daring to look at me with threatening eyes? You even dare to hit people? Do you think I won't tell my daughter you bullied me when she gets back?"
Lucy stood with her hands on her hips, glaring fiercely at Xavier.
This demeanor was not unfamiliar to Xavier. Five years ago, during his relationship with Sophie, Lucy had often threatened him in this way, making him buy her various luxury items.
Even the Sophie&Xavier Group, which he had founded single-handedly, was swallowed by the Lewis family, and in the end, they tricked him away during the wedding.
"Xavier, I'm telling you, from the moment you ran away at the wedding, you have had nothing to do with my daughter. If you know what's good for you, hand the little girl back to the other party and get lost, or I'll call security."
Lucy continued relentlessly, sneering at Xavier, "Judging by your clothes, it looks like the past five years haven't treated you well, have they? What, are you trying to come back and extort us? Don't even think about it!"
"Xavier, you dare to come back, get out of here immediately."
Another vigorous voice shouted.
It was Chad Lewis, Sophie's uncle, who opened the door to the room and sneered, "You have nothing to do with the Lewis family anymore, what are you doing here? Get out of here immediately."
Then, he quickly turned to a young man beside him, dressed in designer brands, and said, "Mr. Rivers, this guy has nothing to do with the Lewis family anymore. He's clearly trying to come back to extort us. Please go inside and rest, I'll get rid of him right away."
The young man referred to as Mr. Rivers, named Jason Rivers, was the young master of the Rivers family in Cloud City, and he was the one the Lewis family was seeking as a son-in-law this time.
Mr. Rivers glanced at Xavier with a playful smile, "So, the guy who made Sophie a laughingstock for five years has returned."
"Xavier, right? I've heard of you, the former honorary chairman of the Sophie&Xavier Group. After creating the group with the Lewis family's money and resources, you even thought of embezzling money and running away. In the end, you had to interrupt the wedding and escape, causing Sophie to be laughed at for five years. And now you dare to come back?"
His words made Xavier laugh out of sheer anger, "You say the Sophie&Xavier Group was created with the Lewis family's money and resources?"
"Isn't it? If you hadn't knelt before the old lady, begging her to help you, where would the Sophie&Xavier Group have come from? You ungrateful wretch, after the Sophie&Xavier Group went public, you tried to take over the group. If I hadn't discovered it in time, you might have succeeded."
Chad glared viciously at Xavier, "Ungrateful wretch, why aren't you leaving?"
Xavier gave Chad a deep look, then turned his gaze to Lucy and the Lewis family members standing behind her, all wearing expressions as if these were the facts.
He couldn't help but laugh, "I never thought people could be this despicable; you truly astonish me."
His heart went completely cold.
Even though he was already aware of the Lewis family's nature, he never expected them to be so shameless.
The Sophie&Xavier Group, which he built from scratch and took public, had nothing to do with the Lewis family.
Yet the Lewis family, the pot calling the kettle black, had the audacity to slander him after seizing the Sophie&Xavier Group.
Such shamelessness is rarely seen.
Chad sneered, "You still dare to spout nonsense here, Xavier. Take the little girl and leave immediately. Don't think about extorting the Lewis family. Now that the Lewis and Rivers families are in-laws, you can't mess around."
"Don't worry, Uncle Chad. With me here, no one can extort the Lewis family," Mr. Rivers said with a gentlemanly smile to Chad, then turned to Xavier, "Whatever you're doing here, I'll give you three minutes to leave. After three minutes, if you're still in the hotel, I'll have your limbs broken and toss you into the gutter."
As he spoke, he glanced at the little girl in Xavier's arms, with a sinister look on his face, "As for the little girl in your arms, don't worry, I won't harm her. I'll just send her to Anofia for training, and when she grows up, she'll benefit the people of Anofia..."
Smack!
Before he could finish speaking, a sudden slap knocked him off his feet.
Mr. Rivers crashed into the door, clutching his face, full of disbelief, "You actually dared to hit me?"
How dare you! Are you out of your mind?
With the Rivers family's power in Cloud City, a single stomp could shake the whole city. Xavier, a traitor who had been on the run for five years, dared to hit him?
"Hitting you is nothing; I could kill you if I wanted. Believe it?"
Meeting Mr. Rivers' incredulous gaze, Xavier stepped forward, his eyes cold.
