So, Selena was certain that Dennis was not there for killing business.

She was, however, perplexed by how he recovered so quickly so soon. He had serious injuries that day.

She had estimated that Dennis would need to be bedridden for at least a fortnight. But look at him, he looked like a healthy young lad!

"What are you doing here?" Feeling scared, Fiona asked, "If you're here for Fane, go ahead, it has nothing to do with us. Be clear with your target, he's responsible for what he did, let him face the consequences, not us. Alright?"

Fane was dumbfounded by his mother-in-law's actions?.

"Brother Fane, I'm here to thank you for that day!"

Dennis intended to kneel before Fane but thought it was better for him not to as it might expose Fane's true identity. So, he could only bow with his hands clasped.

Fane thought even that was unnecessary. Annoyed, he said, "Alright, what's passed is past, there's nothing to thank me for. Besides, it was such a dangerous situation. I'll be ashamed of myself if I didn't rescue you."

"You're right..." Dennis smiled as he presented a box to Selena. "Sis, Fane is my brother now, it's only natural that I call you 'sis'. Here's a little gift for you, I hope you like it."

"This..." Selena was shy. She looked at Fane, not knowing whether to accept the gift. At the same time, she was more shocked that Dennis, being a marshal himself, had addressed Fane as his 'brother'. That was a lot of respect paid.

Then she thought, Fane had saved Dennis' life. So, it was no big deal for him to call Fane 'brother'...

Speaking of that, Fane was a lucky man indeed. O'Neal was already injured when Fane stepped into the ring and stabbed him one more time. Otherwise, Fane would be no match to O'Neal. O'Neal could have killed him, even!

"What are you waiting for? Thank the marshal now! It's disrespectful to refuse the gift, you know?" Fiona nudged, her face filled with joy. A marshal had just addressed Fane as 'brother', that was great news despite not knowing why Dennis did so. It seemed Dennis had owed Fane a favor.

Most importantly, any gift from a marshal would be expensive. It was dumb if Fane declined it. 1

"Go ahead, take it! He came all the way to thank me and present you a gift, why not?" Fane advised.

"Thank you, Marshal Dennis!" Selena accepted the gift and smiled politely.

"Hehe, you're welcome. Fane had prescribed me medicine, and that saved my life. He is my brother now, I owe him my life. I'll do as he says," Dennis declared seriously.

"For real?" Fane was stunned.

Which to Dennis replied, "For real. I'm a man of my words!" Fane did not only save his life, Fane is the Supreme Warrior. Anyone would give their life up to a Superior Warrior. "Very well. From today onward, you'll be my wife's bodyguard. You'll keep her safe," Fane requested.
