Chapter 224: Family Welcome
"Do you know, I also have a crush on Jane. I could have married her if Jane had stayed single," the young man said.
For David, he was all too familiar with the young men from this family having a crush on Jane.
In terms of closeness, Arthur was probably the closest to Jane as they were actually cousins.
However, this was still no surprise to David now.
"Then, do you mind?" David asked in response, not losing his cool.
Just a kid, if he dared to challenge him, he would just have to kick his ass.
"I objected a lot at first, of course. I couldn't sleep for three days when I thought that Jane accepted another man. But I also didn't want to seem petty for getting in the way of someone else's relationship," Arthur said, explaining his thoughts.
"You did the right thing," David said, commenting on his thoughts.
That surprised him to the point that he looked annoyed.
"As I've heard, you're very arrogant," the young man said.
David didn't respond to that, he just behaved as he should.
"Well, I just wanted to talk about this with you. However, I do have a question, you haven't fucked Jane yet, have you?" Arthur said.
His question finally changed David's expression.
He smiled strangely as he held back a laugh.
"You'd better stop hoping. It's been quite a while since Jane and I met. We even live together, where do you think we live?" he said, which instantly made Arthur's skin turn pale.
His breathing quickened while his steps halted.
He seemed to have just been slapped by a fact that he did not want.
In the end, he was left behind, even passed by Evelyn.
As the young man was caught off guard, Evelyn, who was going faster, seized the opportunity to whisper to David.
"Honey, don't discourage a young man."
Her voice was soft and gentle, something that was truly comfortable to hear.
Fortunately the woman slowed her pace after she whispered.
Jane and Evan happened to stare behind them, perhaps they felt something strange.
Unfortunately, they found nothing suspicious other than Arthur being silent. That they didn't find strange.
The affair in this place somewhat made David nervous. He couldn't help but glance at Evelyn with a roll of his eyes, as if telling her not to do anything strange.
Between him and Alice it might be fine, but between him and Evelyn was something very difficult because of that woman's status in this family plus that she was being targeted by the middle-aged men in this family.
They would probably explode with rage if they knew that Evelyn preferred young men from outside over them.
Unfortunately, Evelyn seemed to be without any fear at all.
She gave him a wink with one eye in response.
After that, they finally passed through the door, arriving at a spacious hall with medieval-style decorations.
Although the mansion used modern lights, but they were all designed as well as possible so as to give the impression of not being from the modern era.
It had many sofas placed in various places.
There was one big sofa where people gathered, like a group of nobles.
They were all dressed well, the men wearing suits while the women wore dresses that looked very expensive.
There were quite a lot of young girls like Arthur, David didn't see anyone who wasn't beautiful among the young girls.
Even if they were inferior to Jane, they were still too beautiful to be outside.
The most conspicuous were naturally the middle-aged men and women, they took the lead here because after observing, David did not find any of the older generation.
This was certainly something strange.
All gazes were immediately drawn to him even though he was at the very back.

Some looked at him sharply and some looked at him curiously.
From the middle-aged women, he felt more curious gazes.
They were all beautiful too, possessing seductive bodies.
However, it must be admitted that Evelyn was too conspicuous compared to all of them.
The advantage of Evelyn was that there was an intelligent aura radiating clearly from her eyes, the reason why she could hold the reins of the Bank of this family.
One stare even really felt very unpleasant to David.
It came from Enzo, who was dressed differently from the other men.
He was wearing a black robe similar to Japanese clothing, only lacking Japanese designs.
"This boy who stole Zeus' blood from us and used it for his own benefit. Evan, Evelyn, why don't you catch him now. We can extract that blood from him." Enzo immediately said something in a loud voice.
His aura spread so that there was an invisible pressure.
Some people looked terrified of him.
Of course, he had many followers here other than that what he said was true.
A thief must be caught.
"That's right, we must catch him. The blood of Zeus must belong to our family members," said another, supporting his idea.
"This boy can't be allowed to wander around with power that doesn't belong to him."
David rolled his eyes at everything they said, not expecting him to get this kind of reception.
Even Jane knitted her brows but found Evelyn just laughing.
Evan, on the other hand, seemed quite calm.
"I'm afraid your strength is not enough to do that!" Jane suddenly responded in a cold tone, staring at everyone who spoke with a sharp gaze.
Some of them were afraid of her gaze even though they were older than her.
That naturally could not be said for Enzo.
"Jane, you can go crazy with love, but whatever it is, you have to prioritize this family. That boy used our power to kill our members," Enzo said, stepping forward.
"Uncle, your son died because of his own stupidity," Jane replied, not holding back as she spoke.
"And if you want to fight, I will fight against you with David. We'll see who dies more between us," she added.
At this moment, the woman seemed to have become very emotional.
What she said shocked many people.
They did not expect her to defend her boyfriend to that point.
Enzo looked very angry.
Before he could respond, Evan raised his hand.
"Calm down," he said.
His voice was a little low, but it spread an aura that was just as strong as Enzo's.
Without a doubt, he had above-average strength here.
