Chapter 366

Felicia gazed at Grace, her smile stretching from ear to ear.

Grace gazed at Felicia, her face adorned with an exuberant smile of pure delight.

Leaning in, she whispered a secret into Felicia’s ear.

Upon hearing the words. Felicia’s eyes sparkled, and she enthusiastically nodded, affirming, “Okay, okay, I give you my word.”

“Miss Zabel, have you had a meal? Please join us and dine with us.”

“Absolutely, I was actually looking forward to savoring your culinary skills.”

Showing the baskets filled with fruits in her hands, Grace exclaimed, “Take a look, I’ve brought an abundance of fruits just for you.

“Oh, you sweet child, you shouldn’t have!”

As Felicia proceeded to wash her hands, she stole a glance at Lucas, who had hurriedly made his way to the kitchen door. With a smile, she said. “You came along with your brother, didn’t you? Please take a seat. I’ll start preparing the meal now.”

Following a brief pause, she shifted her gaze toward her son and instructed. “Haylan, don’t simply remain standing there. Go and serve your two disciples.”

After speaking, she beamed with joy.

“Mom, they’re just two kids. There’s no need for me to serve them. Now, both of you, have a seat,” responded Haylan nonchalantly.

“Mrs. Jaber. Ill serve myself

Grace, beaming with delight, settled herself onto the couch in the living room and declared, “Master, I hold the honor of bring the first one to make Mrs Jaber laugh. Does that mean I am the senior disciple under your guidance?”

Observing his mother humming a tune in the kitchen. Haylan turned his attention to Grace and inquired with a perplexed expression. “What did you say to my mother?”

“Well, it’s a secret” she chuckled.

Wearing a victorious expression, she then directed her gaze towards Lucas and declared, “Lucas, did you catch that? Starting today, you’ll call me your senior. Come on, say it out loud.”

Lucas gritted his teeth and glared at her angrily. “It’s all because you kicked me earlier. You cheated, so it doesn’t count.”

“Whether it counts or not is not up to you. You should ask our master,” she said.

“Master, this round doesn’t count. Let’s set new rules, have a rematch, and determine who is the senior,” Lucas suggested, feeling dissatisfied.

His master, on the other hand, cast a glance in his direction and responded, “No need for that. In terms of age, Grace does happen to be older than you. It’s only fair for her to be your senior. Moreover, as I mentioned before, the one who brings joy to my mother’s heart earns the senior position. Do you have a problem with that?”

“No, no. I wouldn’t dare, master. Lucas hurriedly said.

That’s right. Since you wouldn’t dare, Grace is your senior from today onward. When I am not around, you should listen to her, Haylan instructed.

With a triumphant look, Grace stared at Lucas and said, “Lucas, be a good boy. Come on, call me your senior. Let’s hear it.”

“Forget about it. I won’t acknowledge you as my senior,” Lucas gritted his teeth, looking displeased.

“It doesn’t matter how upset you are. In any case, I’m your senior. From now on, you’ll always be my junior fellow, ey? With me around, no one in Lightdom City will mess with you,” she said with a chuckle.

“I’m like a dragon in Lightdom City. Do I need you to protect me?” Lucas said disdainfully.

It was true that both the Zabel family and the Labenz family held significant power in Lightdom City, firmly established as top-tier elite families. However, it would be unwise to underestimate the Lynch family’s influence.

After all, they also held considerable influence in this small city.

“Hehehe, I’m a senior now” Grace chuckled, basking in pleasure.

Her master looked at her with great puzzlement still. “What exactly did you say to my mother?”

His mother, meanwhile, was humming a tune in the kitchen, cooking happily, as if she had just won a big lottery.

The last time she was this happy was when she visited a temple, where the fortune teller predicted that he would have a

He was curious about what Grace had said to his mother.

“I’ve already told you that it’s a secret. It won’t work if word gets out, Grace answered with a smile.

Haylan frowned.

He found it unreasonable that his disciple refused to tell him what exactly had been said.

“Alright, master, don’t worry. I guarantee that what I said is sound and harmless, che? As long as I don’t say it out loud, Mrs. Jaber will always be very happy. It’s a long-lasting joy, okay? Ask no more,” she said mysteriously

Haylan furrowed his brows slightly.

Seeing his mother so happy, he decided not to ask anymore and said, “You two came to my place just to compete for seniority?”

“Master, we came here to talk about something more important. We want to participate in the youth boxing competition,” Grace said.

With an intense glimmer of anticipation in his eyes, Lucas retrieved a competition flyer and presented it to his mentor. He expressed lus fervent desire, ‘I want to embark on a boxing career, and she is eager to give it a shot as well. Would you be willing to train both of us in boxing”

He looked at the flyer, which stated the location, registration deadline, and requirements for the competition.

He looked at the two and asked, “According to these requirements, the competition starts in a month. Do you both have boxing experience?”

“I have practiced Sanda overseas,” she said.

“I have some experience too,” Lucas added.

“Having some experience is good enough. Alright, tomorrow you both come to the company for military training. After the training, I will arrange boxing training for both of you,” he said.

“Thank you, master” Lucas was overjoyed

Having witnessed his master’s immense strength, he was confident about winning the championship with his guidance. “Alright, if there’s nothing else, hurry up and leave. Remember to come for military training tomorrow,” Haylan said. “Alright, master. Keep the fruits. I’ll leave now Lucas said happily.

“Why are you leaving? Since you’re already here, eat with us. You can leave afterward

Felicia walked out with the dishes, placing them on the dining table. She warmly invited Grace and Lucas, saying, “You’re Grace, right? And you, that one, what’s your name?”

“Never mind. You’re guests anyway. Come over and eat, she continued

Lucas was instantly at a loss for words.

He was called “that one” just now,

He wondered, “What did she mean by ‘never mind? Am I not worthy of a name?”

“Thank you, Mrs. Jaber.”

Grace sat down, looking at the table full of dishes, and said with a smile, “Thank you, Mrs. Jaber. You’re so kind. 1 like all these dishes.”

“It’s good that you like it. Let’s start eating.” The mother smiled and looked at Grace lovingly.

“Thank you, Mrs. Jaber

Grace chuckled, picked up a fork, and began enjoying the meal.

Felicia’s face was also filled with kindness as she continuously offered dishes to Grace.

As for Lucas, she did not even spare him a glance.

Lucas sat on the sofa, watching Felicia and Grace’s intimate interaction, his eyes filled with astonishment as he looked at his master and said, “Master, why do I feel like your mom has a closer relationship with Grace than you do?”

Haylan glared at him and replied, “How am I supposed to know? I’m also puzzled by this.”

He also felt incredibly puzzled by the intimate behavior between the two females.

While this was the first time Felicia and Grace met, the two became so mtimate unexpectedly.

Felicia even treated Grace as if she were her own daughter, showing utmost care and concern.

There was something suspicious about this.

He felt that his mother’s behavior was related to what Grace had whispered in her ear earlier.

He was puzzled.

He could not help but wonder what exactly did his disciple say to his mother.
