Hearing this, everyone in the Jones family knew what was going to befall the Gonzales family.
They could have picked a fight with anyone. Why did they have to choose Levi?
Levi continued, “How does this Klaus Gonzales like? There must have been a reason behind my mother’s reluctance
to marry him.”
Klaus Gonzales hesitated before admitting, “Yes, there was a reason, behind your mother’s actions! Klaus had a
reputation for being quite the playboy back then. He used to do nothing but fool around with his parents’ money all
day long. Your mother had even witnessed him, sleeping with another woman, with her very own eyes!”
Here, Michael didn’t dare to continue further. Sensing Levi’s anger, he bowed his head and remained silent.
Levi asked angrily, “Even while knowing this, you had chosen to marry my mother to this man?”

neither your mother nor I had a say in it. Besides, Klaus had taken a liking to your mother and had insisted on
marrying her. I couldn’t reject his offer.”
“Back then, I’d agreed to allow your mother to marry him because I had hoped that an alliance between our
families would be beneficial to us, the Joneses!”
“However, that was the biggest mistake I had ever made in my entire life!” Michael gave out a huge sigh.
“Is the Gonzales family very powerful?” Levi asked.
To the best of his knowledge, the most powerful royal family in South Hampton was the Goel family.
“They’re powerful, very powerful! Xabian Goel might be the most famous in South Hampton, but he’s nowhere near
being the strongest!”
Michael sucked in a deep breath. “The most powerful forces in South Hampton is actually the Restaurant of Peace,
started by The Three Musketeers and Osborn St. Jacques.”
Levi pressed forth imperiously, “Well, tell me more about it!”
Michael explained, “The Restaurant of Peace has existed since a very long time ago. There’s a legend in South
Hampton, saying, that any criminal, no matter how heinous his crimes, is safe, once he enters that restaurant. No
one will be able to punish him, regardless of their position in society.”
Levi was incredulous. “Can the Restaurant of Peace really grant amnesty to criminals? If I go into that restaurant
after killing hundreds of people, will I be safe? Can nobody touch me?”
Michael nodded. “Yes, that’s right. Hence, everyone regards the Restaurant of Peace as the strongest forces in
South Hampton.”
Levi smiled. “Wow, it must be a restaurant of great reputation then. Continue!”

“The second most powerful group of people in South Hampton are The Three Musketeers. The first Musketeer is
Lionel Gonzales, and the second Musketeer is Ritchie Fulmer. Finally, the last Musketeer is Perseus Emil.”
“Klaus Gonzales is the son of Lionel Gonzales. That’s why I’d gone ahead with the marriage, despite my own
misgivings.”
Michael was very clear about how powerful the Gonzales family was.
Levi smiled. “By sending this coffin to your doorstep, isn’t the Gonzales family trying to announce how poorly they
regard the Jones family?”
“Exactly! The Gonzales family doesn’t even humble itself before the Goel family sometimes. Of course, they aren’t
going to care about a small clan like us,” Michael replied carefully.
Hence, this year’s anniversary meeting was extremely important. Michael wanted to take the opportunity to climb
the ranks for his family.
Levi gritted his teeth. “I don’t care how powerful the Gonzales family is! Since they’d humiliated my mother in the
past, I’m going to get my revenge!”
