Watching Barrett Walker, Barrett Walker just smiled as he watched her. As she was about to put something into her mouth, her hand paused slightly. He patted her sister, Lucy Phoenix's back, and reproachfully said, "Why are you all just standing there like wooden blocks? And you too! What's with the gentlemanly act? Take a look at your outfit, where did you even get this suit from? If you're not really wealthy here, are those pretty ladies coming to please you, or to accompany me for food? Hurry up! Don't worry about your appearance."
"Alright, you two enjoy your meal! I have something else to attend to. No one will chase you away, but if someone does, just mention my name. Let's see who dares to kick you out!" Barrett Walker patted Lucy Phoenix's shoulder and smiled.
"Um! Where are you going? If someone really tries to kick us out, we can say that you brought us in!" Nancy Phoenix quickly grabbed Barrett Walker, who was about to leave. She didn't fully trust his words. Just now, they even stole some silver spoons. She didn't want to be embarrassed later on!
"Don't worry! Even if I were to deceive you, I wouldn't deceive Lucy! Lucy is so well-behaved, isn't she?" Barrett Walker smiled, ruffled Lucy's hair affectionately. This girl is really quiet. I wonder what she looks like when she's doing that thing. Barrett Walker thought wickedly, but then quickly hid his smile, nodded at them, and went to greet the guests.
"Haha! This is truly a stroke of luck for us. We were still looking for a reason, but now we can use them as a scapegoat first, to see if he really will help out." Margie Green and the Green brothers sat in the corner, observing Barrett Walker's every move, as well as the banter between him and the Phoenix sisters. Dave Roger couldn't help but feel a bit angry and said, "Who are these two little brats? How does he know such beautiful women, and they are all so gorgeous!"
"Where did you find out about that?" Calvin Roger, dressed in a black suit and wearing black-rimmed glasses, sat arrogantly on the sofa, sipping a glass of red wine and occasionally tasting it. That arrogant look is even more enticing than Dave Roger's.
"Do you not have eyes?" Dave Roger sneered, stood up, and walked over to the two women with a glass of wine in hand. The scene of escaping from the Hero City is unforgettable, why did he have to wear his worn-out shoes, and why did he have to be ridiculed by those people, all because of Barrett Walker! Now he's even outperforming him in terms of achievements, having received a special admission notice from the Warrior Academy! He couldn't understand why this bald man was so special.
As the fusion of Eastern and Western banquet began, guests streamed in, looking for their seats, and the mingling and table arrangement began. Barrett Walker was also known to them. It turns out that the Walker family has not only one grandson, Jaden Walker, but also a Barrett Walker. It's just not clear which aspect of the Warrior family's bloodline this person who has been hidden for so many years has inherited. It is said that his engagement ceremony will also be held after the Warrior banquet, which is a supreme honor!
Barrett Walker was welcoming the guests to their seats, although it wasn't his responsibility, but no one knew what he was thinking. However, when he saw Julia Menard and Mark Smith entering together, Barrett Walker's movements froze instantly. His mind went blank, he looked around, searching for something, whether he was looking for his beloved or for a chance to escape. He murmured under his breath, and those two strange guests he was welcoming looked at him strangely, as if he had offended himself. But seeing Barrett Walker's strange expression, they just walked into the house themselves.
"Why...why...I've already changed history! Why does she still want to be with him? Doesn't she dislike him? Wasn't she..." Julia Menard and Mark Smith's appearance immediately caused a series of exclamations. Truly, a match made in heaven! Despite Mark Smith sometimes being a bit foolish, it must be said that he has sired a good offspring. After careful grooming, he completely disguised the unhealthy color on his face. Listening to the surrounding exclamations, he couldn't help but want to put his arm around Julia's waist, but she took a few steps faster, causing his subtle movement to fall flat. He then awkwardly withdrew his hand and greeted her with a smile. Today, he represented the Smith family's dignity, and the person who was supposed to be above him couldn't make it.

Barrett Walker watched Julia Menard walk past him, her familiar and faint fragrance drifting from her, making him feel as if the scenes of being with her were flooding back to him. Suddenly, he made a bold move. In this post-apocalyptic world, there's no need to be cautious. If all he does is hesitate and look back, then he might as well not live. Thinking of the God of War who once set aside everything for the final battle, achieving the high status that people look up to today, his heart warmed, and he instinctively reached out and grabbed Julia as she walked past. Her hands were as smooth as jade, and he felt their softness and fragility. In the previous life, he had never dared to take this step, but this life, he forced himself to choose. It was a bitter irony.
At that moment, Julia was stunned, Mark Smith was dumbfounded, and a group of guests were shocked. What was happening!
Mark Smith was the first to react, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, he punched Barrett Walker in the face. He had initially found Barrett Walker quite familiar, but at this moment, he remembered that this was the guy who had beaten him up at Jazz High School. He now dared to provoke him again. He really thought he was a sick cat! But the fist went fast, and the return was faster! Barrett Walker casually twisted his palm, and with a crisp sound, he kicked him in the abdomen, sending him flying.
"What are you doing, you madman?" Julia pushed away Barrett Walker's hand and hurried over to Mark Smith, helping him up and asking with concern, "What's wrong, is everything okay?"
"Why are you like this?"
"Who are you, daring to cause trouble here! Do you really think we didn't bring bodyguards with us, and can't do anything to you!"
But Barrett Walker completely ignored them, just looking at Julia, walking towards her, and grabbing her hand, urgently saying, "Have you forgotten me? Do you really have no feelings for me?"
"Oh dear! You're hurting me, who are you! How could I possibly have feelings for you!" Julia slapped Barrett Walker's hand, looking pitiable, which immediately attracted more onlookers and condemnation of Barrett Walker. How could he be so bold as to do this on Warrior Mountain?
"Alright! Don't go too far. Today is your engagement day!" Baren didn't expect Barrett Walker to go mad at this moment, and quickly pulled him aside, sternly warning him. It was fine to go mad yesterday, as those were all people who knew everything about him and didn't bother to talk about these ugly things. But today, there were not only these strangers, but also many journalists! If this were to be captured and released as news, it wouldn't be so simple then. It would truly be a disgrace, as they wouldn't delve into the real reasons behind it, but only see the surface.
"I know what I'm doing. I've never been this clear-headed before." Barrett Walker listened to Baren's admonition. In the past, he might have accepted it gladly, or even if he couldn't, he would have sold him a movie. He would have suppressed his anger for the time being. But since he took this step today, he wouldn't look back. Even if Nie Xiaoqian had no feelings for him, he would still move forward despite himself.
"Danny, don't try to stop me. I know what I'm doing." Barrett Walker looked at Danny, who was rushing forward, and quickly cut him off.
"Wow! It looks like we don't need our plan after all!" Calvin Roger walked out with a glass of red wine, accompanied by Maggie Green, and turned to her with a smile.
Margaret Greene's countenance now bore a somewhat displeased expression. If it were she who had humiliated Barrett Walker, perhaps she would have felt a sense of satisfaction. But now, Barrett Walker had become entangled with another woman, and this woman's appearance was not at all inferior to hers, even coming from the Greene family! However, could this illegitimate child compare to her? She felt a surge of fire breaking through her restraint, engulfing her entire body, as she declared, "Later, I will ruthlessly deal with this despicable person, I will make sure he never recovers!"
"Don't be so malicious!" Looking at Margaret Greene's gritted teeth and fierce expression, the two Greene brothers shivered, making sure not to provoke her!
Barrett Walker was unaware that a tide of animosity was surging towards him. He released Julia Menard's hand and looked into her eyes, saying, "That day, on Crow Mountain, when we were filming, can you honestly say that you felt nothing, that it was all just acting?"
"Big brother, you know that was just acting..." Julia Menard hadn't even finished speaking when the people around them burst into laughter. Some even mocked her by imitating Julia Menard's innocent and delicate way of speaking.
"Shut up!" Barrett Walker looked at them and struck a nearby stone lion with his palm, causing it to split in two with a loud crack, sending small stones flying. Some people glanced at the cut on the stone lion, seeing countless tiny points, like needles. Those who understood his abilities instinctively shrank back, realizing the immense power he possessed.
The intimidating effect was highly effective, as the group fell silent, staring at him in astonishment. Barrett looked at the bewildered or perhaps recollecting Julia, and continued, "Have you forgotten what this guy intended to do to you at Jazz High, and what I did for you?"
