Chapter:-115 Fairfax Family

After agreeing to contact him again soon, he hung up the phone. He finished washing up

and had just left his room to go downstairs and find something to eat when he saw Mia

walking over. Mia was wearing a light blue dress, and her hair, which was usually coiled

up in a bun, was scattered loosely over her shoulders.

She'd put a little makeup on, and the whole look made her seem a little younger. In the

eyes of anyone else, she was at most in her mid-twenties. Mia saw Keith and said, I was

just coming to see if you wanted to get a bite to eat.

Keith smiled faintly and said, Are you feeling better today? Mia nodded and stared at

Keith. She said, Keith, you saved me again last night. Thank you.

Keith smiled and shook his head. Let's go get some lunch. In the restaurant, the two of

them sat opposite each other.

Mia seemed to have changed into another person and was in a good mood. Keith's 16

points of charm value made him a little more handsome. His every movement radiated a

charisma that made many of the young women in the restaurant sneak glances at him.

Mia's appearance was even more impressive, and the two of them made a handsome

couple. The other diners looked over with envy from time to time. In three days, it would

be time to start college.

Keith wanted to go back, but he knew that Mia had to be the one to suggest it. Mia

seemed to have read his mind. She smiled and said, Keith, let's go home after lunch.

Olivia is probably anxious. Keith nodded just as he was about to say something. His

phone suddenly rang.

It was Olivia. A concerned voice came from the other end of the phone. Have you found

my mom? Keith looked at Mia and smiled.

She's by my side. She's fine. Olivia let out a long breath.

She seemed to remember something and said anxiously, Mom's phone is off. Huh? Keith

was taken aback, but he handed the phone to Mia and said, It's Olivia. She said

something's happened.

Mia's heart tightened and an ominous feeling surged up in her chest. After a moment,

she hung up the phone and said with a serious expression, Keith, can you come with me

to my parents' house? Olivia said my father has fallen seriously ill. What? Keith was

shocked when he heard the news.

He only knew a little of Mia's background. Before she married Olivia's father, she had

been the beloved daughter of the Fairfax family, one of the most prestigious dynasties in

New York. Speaking of this Fairfax family, it was an extraordinary family.

Old Mr. Alexander Fairfax was a great figure who'd retired from a successful career in the

military and in business. He was on the same level as Old Mr. Strauss. But the

relationship between Old Mr. Fairfax and Old Mr. Strauss wasn't very good.

Although both families belonged to the same elite business and social circles, they never

interacted with each other. The marriage between Mia and Olivia's father had been

opposed by the entire Fairfax family. Mia ran away from home in a fit of anger.

From then on, she was expelled from the Fairfax family and her name was removed from

the family tree. Old Mr. Fairfax also had a tough temper. In all these years, he'd never

once called Mia.

But now the old man had suddenly developed a strange illness. It seemed like he didn't

have long left. Although he didn't say it explicitly, the old man wanted to see his

daughter before he died.

Back up in the Catskills, Mia's phone wasn't connected. The Fairfaxes had called Old Mr.

Strauss directly. Old Mr. Strauss didn't say anything.

He let his daughter-in-law decide whether to go or not. Keith had wanted to go home and

continue his plan to earn money and level up. But seeing Mia's anxious look, he sighed

and nodded.

Of course I'll come with you. Mia smiled and said, well, I should explain the relationship

between my family and me first. Ever since my late husband died, my family has wanted

me to cut off my relationship with the Strausses and remarry.

They'll definitely bring it up while I'm there. So if anyone asks you, just say that I have a

boyfriend. Mia looked relieved as Keith nodded in understanding.

She stood up and said, Olivia's on her way. Let's get going. Keith stuffed a piece of bread

into his mouth and hurriedly followed Mia out of the restaurant.

The Fairfax estate was out in the mountains, and if Mia's sports car, they were there in

no time. The house was palatial, with expansive gardens. Unlike the Strauss family, the

Fairfaxes were a large family, and most of them lived on the estate, including a number

of servants and chefs.

There were at least 50 people there in total. As soon as the two of them got out of the

car, a middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper came up to them. When he saw

Mia, he hurriedly greeted her.

Miss, you're finally back. Mr. Fairfax doesn't have long left. Hurry upstairs and see him.

Mia looked anxious. She handed the car keys to the housekeeper and pulled Keith into

the villa. The housekeeper was surprised.

Miss, this young man is, you know, the old man's temper. I'm afraid strangers can't come

in. He's my son-in-law, Mia said, and dragged Keith quickly inside, leaving the

housekeeper a little stunned on the spot.

A son-in-law? Miss Olivia is married? Old Mr. Fairfax's room was decorated in a vintage

style, and at this moment it was surrounded by people. It seemed that his condition

really was serious. The doctors advised that the old man had reached his final moments.

Mia was stopped outside the door by a man who said coldly, You have the nerve to come

back? Father doesn't want to see you. Get out. Mia anxiously said, I just need to see him

one last time.

The man sneered. You just want to make sure you get to share the inheritance. Let me

tell you, the day you married that Strauss boy was the day you stopped being a Fairfax.

Leave immediately, or I'll get my bodyguards to throw you out. Mia was so anxious that

her tears were about to spill over. She raised her eyes to the bedroom doorway, but

there were people in front of her, and she couldn't see old Mr. Fairfax at all.

When the man beside her saw this, he sneered. All right, stop putting on an act. You

shouldn't be short of money as part of the Strauss family.

Why have you come back here to try and get more? Leave. The commotion alarmed the

people nearby. They looked at Mia with cold eyes.

They were all people with status, and usually it wasn't a problem for them to get along.

But now was the time to divide the inheritance. They were splitting a sum of billions.

Mia saw the others looking and felt a little disheartened. In the face of such huge

amounts of money, it seemed her family had changed. She sighed and shook her head

before turning to Keith and saying, And maybe I really shouldn't have come here.

Keith, let's go. Keith smiled and said, We're already here. How can we just leave like

this? He took a step forward and looked at the man who was stopping Mia from going

into the bedroom.

He said calmly, I'll count to three. If you don't move, you'll regret it. Three.

The man was stunned when he heard that. He said angrily, Who do you think you are?

How dare you talk to me like that? Little sister, you're becoming more and more cunning.

Did you find a toy boy after your husband died? It's one thing for you to date someone

like him, but to dare bring him here and let him talk to me like that? Two.

The old man really loved you and your daughter, and this is how you repay him. Two.

Keith's voice was calm, but Mia's expression was cold as she said, He's my son-in-law.

Son-in-law? Then he's a strass. I can't let him in. One.

One. Keith said in a flat tone. Time's up.

You talk too much. In the next moment, a crisp sound was heard as Keith slapped the

man and sent him flying. With a bang, he hit the wall and slid to the floor.

His head tilted to the side and he fainted. Two. The whole place was silent.

Almost everyone looked over. The next moment, the bodyguards suddenly reacted,

reaching for the weapons at their waists. Keith's eyes flashed, he stomped on the

ground, and an electric net spread out from under his feet.

After a series of crackles, the ten bodyguards all fell to the ground, twitching and

unconscious. All of this happened so fast that the bodyguards had already fallen to the

ground by the time anyone reacted. What's going on? What happened? Everyone else

was stunned by the scene in front of them.

Each and every one of them looked at Keith with fear in their eyes. The Fairfax family

had a long, ancient history of martial arts and military expertise. Old Mr. Fairfax had

inherited this kind of magical skill to lead armies and make great contributions to his

country.

Those who lived here were the core members of the Fairfax family. They'd heard about

this kind of thing. Ordinary people might not understand, but they were dumbfounded by

it.

This kid was an expert, and he was an ultimate expert at an unimaginable level. Keith

calmly swept his gaze across this group of people. There was a faint coldness in his eyes,

and even the hearts of these Fairfax elites skipped a beat.

They couldn't help but lower their heads. Suddenly, as if he'd sensed something, Keith

looked towards a corner. There was a young woman standing there, and she was

dressed in red with a faint smile on her face.

She was smiling at him. This young woman was beautiful, and there was a slight

amorous feeling between her brows. She looked at Keith with a sweet smile, and in her

eyes, there was a hint of surprise.

The moment Keith saw her, he felt a kind of stunning feeling, which made his scalp

tingle. Since Keith's state of existence had been elevated, unless it was an earth-shaking

beauty like Olivia, no matter how beautiful the other women were, they wouldn't give

him this kind of feeling. But when he took a closer look, the feeling disappeared as if it

had never even happened.

The woman in red had turned into a beautiful but ordinary girl. At that moment, she was just like the others, lowering her head and not daring to meet his gaze. But with his

instant memorization skill, Keith would never forget the stunning feeling of first seeing

her.

Illusion? No, this is... Keith was shocked, but he didn't show it on his face. He buried his

doubts in his heart and said lightly, Amiya's father's life is in danger. As his child, she has

the right to see him.

The Fairfax family is an established family. Don't tell me...
