"Martha, that bastard dared to offend me in front of the whole family and call me stupid. He even dared to steal my spotlight and try and make Angela the family head. I will kill him" said Damian furiously.
"Calm down Damian, you can't do anything here. He has gained the approval of the family head, so don't do anything that will ruin your chances of becoming the next family head" advised Martha.
"It is nearly impossible for them to form an alliance with the Epstein Family, but even so, there is a small chance and we should get in their way. We need to make sure that they do not make it to Staten Island" said Martha, who wanted to cement her fiance's position as the next family head, while also getting rid of Angela in the process.
It was obvious to Martha that Damian was most furious because he was jealous that a male seemed to be close to Angela when she would ignore him, so if she could get rid of both the male and Angela, it would kill two birds with one stone.
"Yes, I agree. Let's wait for them to come out of the family head's office so we can send somebody to tail them and get in their way" agreed Damian.
After a minute, Angela left the office with her two companions and they walked across the conference room towards one of the lifts that would take them down to the first floor.
Just as they were about to enter the lift, Damian with his full speed dashed towards them and used the Movement Technique that he was famed for, which enhanced his speed massively.
Within a blink of an eye, he reached Adam who stood behind Angela, and even Angela couldn't react to such speed, let alone Adam.
Damian was aiming to take off Adam's mask and just as he was about to do so, with speed that Adam couldn't react to, Wayde suddenly moved and grabbed Damian's arm.
"Do not touch my master's companion" stated Wayde as he flung Damian across the room, launching him into a wall.
Wayde's External Cultivation alone, which was lower than that of his Internal Cultivation, was enough for him to dominate Damian easily. Most of the cultivators in the Maxwell Family, who didn't need to worry about resources, would cultivate externally to the peak of the Novice Cultivation Level, then would cultivate internally for as far as they can go.
Damian didn't expect that Wayde would protect the unknown male that seemed to be Angela's guard, but he was shown just how wrong he was.
Wayde's only task was to protect and do as Angela said, since he was her guardian, and he didn't care about offending any other members of the Maxwell Family, apart from the family head, who had raised him and was still much stronger than him.
Damian didn't dare to attack or try and fight Wayde after he made it clear that he was going to protect Angela's companion, while Adam was surprised and touched that Wayde protected him.
'I will hold this humiliation in my heart and after I become the family head, I will kill that Wayde bastard and will make Angela my concubine that will do everything that I say" vowed Damian to himself in hatred, unwilling to let go of his desire to be with Angela and be the family head.
Angela, Adam and Wayde entered the lift as if nothing had happened while the rest of the Maxwell Family members were shocked by what had happened. It was the first time that somebody had dared to lay a hand on Damian, and they didn't know how to react.
Yet nobody dared to say anything, knowing that Wayde was one of the most powerful cultivators in the family, especially with his skill as a fighter and his Fire Elemental Affinity.
"Thanks a lot, Wayde, I appreciate your protection" thanked Adam, who knew that his identity would have been revealed if it wasn't for Wayde intervening.
Wayde nodded his head, but didn't say anything as he stood beside him in the lift silently.
Adam had respected and treated Wayde like a human, which wasn't how he was usually treated, so Wayde felt like it was necessary for him to also protect Adam, who was the first person to be friendly with him.
Wayde couldn't remember the last time he relaxed or spoke casually to somebody, which Adam had tried to get him to do ever since meeting with him. Adam was impacting them both positively and knew that it was a worthwhile investment, as in the future they would be of great help to him.
They reached the ground floor and headed to the car park, where they had left their limousine and were prepared to leave straight away.
It would be too obvious if Adam got changed again in the Maxwell Headquarters, and by attending the meeting he had placed a massive target on his back, so his best and only option was to get changed in the limousine.
They got inside the car and Angela and Wayde wanted to set off immediately to Staten Island, where the Epstein Family was located, but Adam didn't want to leave so soon.
"Could you give me a few hours to sort out some things? They are very important and they must be sorted out before we head to Staten Island, but after that, we will spend the rest of the 3 days trying to form an alliance with the Epstein Family head" requested Adam.
Angela and Wayde needed him to do so, as he seemed to best at talking and negotiating and was also the one that had come up with the idea, so had no choice but to wait a few hours for him just like he had requested.
"Drop me off at Brooklyn Bridge Park, then I will meet you back there in at most 3 hours," said Adam.
