Zhao Hai noticed that Marriott had already cleared the restaurant. Inside the restaurant, there was only one table with food, the other tables were empty. Some neatly dressed waiters were standing around the restaurant, but now they were looking at the young man who was eating and drinking.
Seeing this situation, Zhao Hai understood that this young man was a member of the Shelley Family. Moreover, his status wasn't low. Otherwise, the waiters wouldn't have left him alone.
When Marriott saw the young man, his complexion changed. Then he smiled bitterly at the young man and said, "13th Master, you came."
The young man didn't pay attention to Marriott and just continued to eat. At this time, Might also went forward and bowed, "Might has seen 13th Young Master."
The 13th Young Master's attitude towards Might was a lot better. He looked at Might and said, "Might, why did you come out?"
Might smiled and said, "This time, I was ordered by the family to protect Mister Wales." Then he introduced the 13th Young Master, "This is Mister Wales. The family has already sent word to treat Mister Wales as a distinguished guest."
Might's words were actually to remind the young man to pay attention to his attitude towards Zhao Hai. It must be said that the Shelley Family was an old aristocratic family, so their education was very systematic. All of the descendants of the family would receive the most orthodox aristocratic education. Once they were born, they would definitely become the most standard aristocrats.
Naturally, they wouldn't only be taught this. Shelley Family was a merchant family, so they were trained to do business from an early age. And a successful merchant would naturally need to be smooth and slick in dealing with people. And the descendants of the Shelley Family were able to do this, and they did it very well.
However, every family would have one or two outliers. The thirteenth prince was one of the outliers of the Shelley Family. The education he received since childhood was the same as his brothers and elder brothers. However, the thirteenth prince was the most peculiar one, he was also the one who gave the family the most headaches.
Although the thirteenth prince learned a lot of things, he didn't use them in the right place. In the entire Shelley Family, he was the only playboy, and he wasn't stingy at all. Aside from the elders of the family, he didn't give anyone face. Some time ago, he even had a fight with Grand Duke Lionheart's son. Later on, when Lionheart suppressed Shelley Hotel, besides snatching business, it was also related to this matter.
However, the 13th young master's mother's family was also a Great Family. Because of this, his mother's status in the Shelley Family wasn't low. Perhaps it was because of this that the 13th young master was very arrogant in the family. He even looked down on his elder brother.
It was precisely because of this that the thirteenth prince became the most troublesome person in the Shelley Family. Outside of the family, the thirteenth prince didn't give face to anyone. Even towards an old official like Marriott, the thirteenth prince was still indifferent. Moreover, he often caused trouble, so the Shelley Family had no choice but to solve his troubles.
However, he was still the 13th Young Master of the Shelley Family. Moreover, he had a very strong mother. Because of this, nobody in the family dared to be rude to him. Even old people like Marriott had to be respectful to him.
This made the 13th Young Master even more lawless. In the past few days, the Shelley Family's businesses were destroyed by the 13th Young Master. He also offended a lot of people. But because of the Shelley Family's face, nobody dared to do anything to him. They just treated him like a child who hasn't grown up yet.
Originally, Marriott received news that the 13th Young Master would arrive at Sky Water City in three days. He thought that nothing would happen, but he didn't expect the 13th Young Master to appear today. Moreover, the 13th Young Master even went to the dining hall to eat and drink. This was very rude.
Marriott turned his head to look at Zhao Hai. He discovered that Zhao Hai didn't seem to be angry. He just looked at the 13th Young Master as if he was watching a play. Marriott's eyes even had a smile on them.
When Marriott heard Might, he understood what he meant. He couldn't help but feel grateful towards Might. He was very clear about the importance of Zhao Hai to the Shelley Family. Now, he only hoped that the 13th Young Master wouldn't be too willful and not give Zhao Hai face. Otherwise, if Zhao Hai got angry and decided not to cooperate with the Shelley Family, then the Shelley Family's losses would be huge.
After listening to Might's introduction, the 13th Young Master looked at Zhao Hai but didn't say anything. However, the contempt in his eyes couldn't be concealed. In fact, he didn't want to conceal it. Instead, he looked at Zhao Hai with contempt and said, "Kid, where did you come from to eat and drink? Do you think that the Shelley Family is a fool? "
Zhao Hai looked at the 13th Young Master and smiled faintly, "The Shelley Family wouldn't be a fool to cooperate with me. But to offend people without understanding the situation, they're definitely a fool."
The 13th Young Master's complexion changed, even Might and Marriott's complexion changed. They understood the 13th Young Master too well. This Young Master absolutely couldn't tolerate other people talking about him. Zhao Hai's sarcasm was obvious, even a fool would be able to hear it. Moreover, the 13th Young Master wasn't a fool, he knew that Zhao Hai's words would make things worse.
Sure enough, the 13th Young Master's complexion changed. He looked at Zhao Hai and sneered, "Kid, I don't care what you do. But do you believe that I can make you stop cooperating with the Shelley Family? Not only that, you'll also be hunted down by them."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "I don't believe it. Are you the Patriarch of the Shelley Family? Do you have the authority to do so? If the Shelley Family really doesn't want to cooperate with me because of your order, then I really can't see how the Shelley Family would be worth cooperating with. "Zhao Hai nodded.
The 13th Young Master's complexion changed once again. He didn't think that Zhao Hai would be like this. The 13th Young Master coldly looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Kid, do you know what you're talking about? It's as if the Shelley Family is begging to cooperate with you. Are you sure that's what you mean? "
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "That's what I meant. Because I didn't want to cooperate with the Shelley Family in the beginning. It was you who came to me first. You can say that I can stop cooperating with the Shelley Family at any time and look for another partner. Do you understand?"
The 13th Young Master's complexion turned pale. He turned to Might and Marriott and roared, "Did you hear what he said? Make him get the hell out of here immediately. "
Might and Marriott had bitter smiles on their faces, but they didn't move. Zhao Hai looked at the scene in amusement. He turned his head to look at the thirteenth prince, but he didn't say anything. However, the smile on his face made the thirteenth prince feel like he was ridiculing the thirteenth prince.
The 13th Young Master's complexion turned pale as he looked at Might and Marriott and roared, "Don't tell me you don't want to listen to me? Don't forget, I'm still the family's Foreign Affairs Elder. Do I have the authority to make you do this? Do you dare to disobey the family's orders? "
A family might not necessarily have an elder in charge of external affairs. Every elder in charge of external affairs would be different. For example, the thirteenth prince's position as the elder in charge of external affairs was just an empty title. But just like what he said, he still had the authority to order Might and Marriott to do some things.
At this time, Might smiled bitterly and said, "13th Young Master, you haven't been in contact with the family for a while right? The patriarch has already ordered to remove your authority as Foreign Affairs Elder. He also ordered that as long as they see you, they should immediately send you home. So now you really don't have the authority to order us. Also, the family's cooperation with Mister Wales is very important to the family. You can't destroy it. "
The 13th Young Master froze for a moment, then his complexion changed. He looked at Might and said, "Father really removed my authority as Foreign Affairs Elder? Mother didn't stop it? "
Might looked at the 13th Young Master and suddenly felt a little sympathy for him. Might was very clear that the 13th Young Master didn't have any contact with the family during this period of time. Instead, he hid himself. He probably knew that his father wouldn't let him go since he angered Grand Duke Lionheart. That's why he didn't dare to show up and didn't contact the family. Recently, it might be because he spent money, so he had no choice but to appear here.
Before, nobody knew where he was hiding. But when he appeared, the family already knew about it. Moreover, they secretly sent people to protect him. This was why Marriott knew that he would arrive at Sky Water City in three days. He didn't expect the 13th Young Master to arrive early and destroy the family's cooperation with Zhao Hai.
It was because of this that he didn't know what happened in the family. Originally, he wanted to wait until he saw the 13th Young Master and then slowly tell him about it. But now, it seems like he had no choice. Might understood the 13th Young Master's temper very well. If he didn't say anything, the 13th Young Master might get angry on the spot. If that happens, Zhao Hai might really not cooperate with the Shelley Family anymore. Then they would be in big trouble.
Might sighed and said, "13th Young Master, you should go home. Once you're home, you'll understand everything." Naturally, Might said this because he didn't want to wash his dirty linen in public. He wanted the 13th Young Master to retreat. Seeing this situation, the best way for the 13th Young Master was to not ask anything and wait until they were alone before asking.
However, the 13th Young Master obviously wasn't in such a mood. He roared at Might, "I told you to speak, so what? I'm not a Foreign Affairs Elder, so you dare not listen to me? Don't forget, you're just a servant, a dog raised by the Shelley Family. "
