Chapter 688 Joshua Xander
By then, the Xander brothers were glaring at Varian with venomous eyes. But feeling the danger from him, they didn"t make a move.",
Varian, on the other hand, dropped a normal healing potion on the unconscious maid. Her rough breathing smoothened and her injuries began to heal.",
To be honest, Varian didn"t care for her life. A lot of people died every day.",
But since it happened in front of him and he got nothing to lose by stepping up, he helped her out.",
"You, just you wait. Our brother is also coming with Mayor"s son." The Xander young master who stepped on the maid spat.",
Varian ignored them and sat on a sofa. Sarah and Sia didn"t even glance at them from the beginning.",
The Mayor took a deep breath and said. "Aiden, Ethan, he is my guest and also a friend of my s…son. So, he"s a friend of your brother"s comrade. Let"s not make this big, shall we?"",
"The mayor had trouble even calling him a son." Sarah thought and then her brows furrowed as she turned to the expressionless Sia. "Will she ever forgive my father…more importantly, will my father ever forgive himself?"",
Contrary to Sarah, Varan"s thoughts were in a different direction altogether. "Mayor"s son is friends with a Xander?"",
He was having second thoughts about the whole thing.",
As far as he had seen, Xanders was a group of corrupt, filthy, and arrogant b.a.s.t.a.r.ds.",
As he was about to get up, the young lady Vin, now dressed in cute pink clothes ran into the waiting hall.",
"He"s here! The military vehicle is here!" She chirped with a beaming smile.",
Varian groaned in frustration and sat back down. "f.u.c.k."",
Hearing her words, the mayor also looked towards the entrance as did the Xander brothers.",
As expected, a military hovercar entered through the gates and reached the mansion"s entrance in the blink of an eye.",
The Xander brothers stood up instinctively as they waited for their older brother.",
They even glanced at Varian with a derisive look. "Just you wait, once he"s here, our brother will deal with you."",
The door of the vehicle slammed open and a man in military fatigues jumped out.",
Tak! Tak! Tak!",
As the sound of his uniform and powerful steps rang, the tall man entered the room.",
"Brother!" The Xander twin brothers stepped forward with a smile and greeted him.",
The man gave them a light smile and nodded at the Mayor.",
The mayor smiled at him and opened his mouth but the Xander brothers beat him to it.",
"Brother Joshua! This guy insulted our family! He also stopped us from punishing the maid! Teach him a lesson!"",
"Yeah! I also want to see you fight for once! Brother, they praise you at home! Let us see your powers! Teach this arrogant b.a.s.t.a.r.d why he shouldn"t provoke Xanders!"",
The two fanned the flames and made Varian the sole culprit.",
Vin, who wanted to ask about her brother also closed her mouth seeing the tense situation.",
"W-Wait," the mayor stepped forward in an attempt to mediate the conflict.",
He could"ve stayed silent but after realizing Varian helped his daughter out of genuine kindness, he couldn"t help himself.",
"You." Joshua Xander glanced at Varian who remained seated all this time.",
Even though it was a single word, the air grew incomparably heavy. Despite being in the same rank as the mayor, he exuded a completely different feeling. A man who bathed in the sea blood.",
"Hm? What about me?" Varian asked back, crossing his legs.",
"Hey! It"s basic manners to at least stand-up."",
"Who do you think you"re talking to? Give some respect."",
The Xander brothers continued to fan the flames.",
Joshua stared at Varian intensely for a moment before noticing the unconscious maid who was now held by an older maid in the distance.",
The large tear in her uniform showed her bruised skin and the big red stain on her white dress told how much she bled.",
He turned to the two Xander brothers. "What did she do?"",
"Huh?"",
"Sorry?"",
The Xander brothers were confused while Varian raised a brow in surprise.",
"Four broken ribs, bruised skin, damaged left lung." Joshua Xander said in a plain voice, but hearing his words, the Xander brothers felt uneasy for some reason. "If there was no treatment, she"d have died."",
"T-That"s only natural for the crime she committed." One of the twins said.",
"What was her crime? As far as I know, only treason has the punishment of instant death. Hm?" Joshua took two steps forward and reached the Xander brothers.",
"T-That"s…"",
"She tore my shirt! When I bent down, she was carrying a fork in her hand."",
"Actually, that is murder, right?"",
"Yes, yes."",
"And that guy stepped in middle. Maybe he"s cooperating with her in the murder?"",
"Must be so."",
The two completely twisted the tale and even nodded with a fierce expression.",
Joshua turned towards Varian with a fierce expression and raised his hand.",
Varian shook his head in exasperation.",
"This stupid fami—"",
"Brother, teach h—mff"",
"Xander must not be insu—aghhh"",
The two young masters who were cheering in joy were suddenly silenced as a harsh slap caused them to crash to the ground and spit out blood.",
"?!" Varian opened his mouth in surprise.",
Joshua looked at Varian and said with the same fierce expression. "Thank you for doing the right thing."",
"Uh-yeah…"",
"This is my first time seeing these two. Looks like I need to discipline them well." Saying so, Joshua lifted the young masters one by one and slapped their faces.",
"B-Broth-Stop! Pwease!"",
"S-Sorry…"",
He didn"t stop.",
"Awww! It hurts!"",
"Really sworry!"",
He wasn"t being merciful. They spat out all their teeth. Their cheeks swelled and turned red and purple.",
"Bweg youff!"",
"Staaph!"",
Holding them by their necks, he took them to the maid who just regained her consciousness.",
"Kya!"",
Seeing the two swollen purple faces, she screamed in fear.",
Only after the older maid explained to her what happened did she calm down. Still, she looked at the military man with apprehension.",
"S-Sir?" She called out in confusion.",
"Apologize," Joshua said in a deep tone.",
"Ahhh!Yes! I"m terribly sorry!" The maid knelt in fear and was about to slam her head against the ground.",
But before she could do it, two heads slammed themselves faster into the ground and yelled.",
"Swwovy!"",
"Heuk!" The maid jumped in fright seeing the two young masters apologize. Instead of feeling relieved, her face paled and she shook her head violently.",
"N-No…don"t, I don"t dare…"",
"I know what you"re worried about." Joshua Xander said in an indifferent tone. If anything happens to you or your family, I"ll hold these guys accountable."",
"B-Bwother?"",
"W-wat?"",
Joshua looked at his two "brothers" with a sharp gaze. "You two don"t know the value of life."",
"…"",
"…"",
"…"",
Everyone watched with surprised expressions.",
But the most surprised was Varian"s trio.",
Varian was undoubtedly the most surprised.",
"He"s adopted! I swear!"",
"He"s a famous prince and he"s not adopted." Sarah shook her head at Varian as if she knew what he was thinking.",
"…Urgh. Xanders." Sia lowered her head.",
Right then, a soft voice said in a quivering tone.",
"B-Brother Joshua…where"s my brother?" Vin bit her lip and asked while stealing a glance at the military vehicle.",
She was staring at it from the beginning with eager eyes, but no one else stepped out.",
Maybe his vacation got delayed? After all, the situation was serious, so it"s not surprising…",
"Your brother…" Joshua"s eyes fell on the mayor and then on Vin.",
Seeing those eyes, the mayor held his breath. Vin, however, continued to stare at Joshua with burning curiosity.",
Lowering his head, the Xander clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth.",
"He"s not coming back."",
