Falling for the Young Miss

"Seattle is a well-developed second-tier city in China. The Klein family—a once-prestigious household—is currently holding a meeting.

""Dad, given the current situation, which family would even look down on us Klein family?""

That's right—just the other day we went to a drinking party, and the host didn't even reserve a seat for us!

Back in the day, anyone who heard the name Klein family would instantly put on a cheerful smile!! Now, well... anyone who looks at us is simply a laughingstock!

In the hall, a group of people with flushed faces addressed an elderly man seated at the head of the table; however, he remained stern-faced and silent. Seeing his silence, the others resumed their arguments among themselves.

Alan Yegel sat in an inconspicuous corner; unlike his usual timid demeanor, his expression now revealed not only surprise but also a profound sense of understanding and delight as he observed the scene.

The ninety-ninth life... Has I finally arrived in this lifetime?

When he came to, Alan Yegel felt a sense of reflection: after all these years, they had finally reached the most critical moment.

But what's the situation right now?

He frowned, glanced around, and only then did the memories of this life gradually come into focus.

""Well, so I'm just a useless man who married into this family.""

Once he understood his situation, Alan Yegel found it rather amusing: how could a great mage like him—someone whose mere footsteps once shook the world—end up becoming a mere appendage of a mundane family? What a comedy.

In the meeting room, everyone was frowning when suddenly a laugh echoed from a corner. They froze instantly, turned around, and upon seeing Alan Yager's smile, their faces grew even more grim.

""Waste!! What the hell are you even laughing about!!""

""Who brought this useless thing in!!""

To be honest, didn't the bad times for our Klein family begin exactly on that day when this wretch arrived? Within days of his arrival, his damn father swindled millions from us in dowry and fled! Our entire Klein family has now become a laughingstock!

A group of people said to Alan Yager with clenched teeth.

When Alan Yegel noticed everyone's eyes on him, he couldn't help frowning. After searching his memory, he realized the person they were referring to was simply the man who had deceived him when he was six years old.

""A bunch of fools with no brains at all.""

Once he understood the full situation, Alan Yegel shook his head, stood up, and prepared to leave—he had no time to engage in idle chatter with these people.

When they heard what Alan Yager had said, everyone was stunned—they never imagined that the usually timid Alan Yager would dare speak such words to them.

Alan Yager, stop right there!! Are you really trying to get yourself into trouble?!

As Alan Yegel continued cursing without apologizing and was about to leave, a young man stood up and angrily grabbed his shoulders.

Alan Yegel frowned and glanced back at the hand resting on his shoulder.

“ let go 。”

""Get lost, you idiot! Get on your knees and apologize immediately!""

Duff Klein glared at Alan Yager in anger, but when he saw Yager staring back coldly without any reaction, he flew into a rage and kicked Yager squarely in the knee!

""I'm telling you to kneel... Ah!!!""

Before he could finish speaking, Duff Klein felt as if he had kicked a rock—severe pain shot through his toes.

Alan Yegel watched him jump up in frustration, a cold smile playing on the corners of his mouth.

As a former grand mage, the moment he awakened, he instantly ascended to the rank of a Level 1 mage. His energy surged so intensely that it reached his legs; had Daf Klein's kick been even heavier, it could have caused him a fracture!

""Cao Nima, why are you tying an iron plate to your leg?""

Daf Klein snarled at him with a grim expression.

Upon hearing his words, Alan Yegel walked up to him with a blank expression, ready to show him what he was capable of—a mere commoner daring to challenge him!

Duff Klein watched Alan Yager approach with a stern expression; that unfamiliar demeanor sent a sudden chill through him, followed by an overwhelming surge of shame and anger. ""Damn it—how could I even be frightened by this useless person who usually bullied me so easily?""

""Go to hell, you useless brat! I'll beat you – and do you even dare fight back?!""

As he spoke, he extended his face toward her.

Come on, if you don't slap me, then you're not a real man.

Alan Yegel looked at him, smiled, and raised his hand. Duff Klein was instantly taken aback, feeling a wave of panic—could he really have the nerve to make such a move?

You dare!!

Stop!!

Only then did the other attendees in the meeting room realize what had happened. Seeing Alan Yegel dare to make such a gesture, they flew into a rage, slammed their hands on the table, stood up, and shouted at him.

""Mom and Dad, please don't talk. I really want to see if he has the courage!""

Duff Klein realized everyone had noticed his nervousness, so he quickly gritted his teeth and shouted.

A cold gleam flashed in Alan Yegel's eyes as he swiftly swung his hand!!!

Daf Klein's mind froze, and his pupils instantly constricted!!

Alan Yager, no!!

At that moment, the door of the meeting room suddenly opened, and a woman rushed in. Upon seeing this scene, she immediately screamed loudly.

Upon hearing this voice, Alan Yager felt an inexplicable surge of emotion and stopped his hand just three centimeters from Daf Klein's face.

Duff Klein felt a strong gust of wind brush against his face; he instinctively swallowed hard, then straightened up immediately, quickly masking the fear in his eyes and wearing a mocking expression.

""Waste is just waste – I wouldn't even dare hit you if you dared! What a useless thing!""

Alan Yegel ignored his provocation and turned to look at the woman who had burst in.

Her attire was far inferior to that of the others present—just like her own current appearance, entirely composed of second-hand items from street stalls. Yet despite this, the woman before her resembled a precious gem merely dusted with dirt, utterly captivating.

“ wife ？？”

Alan Yegel thought for a moment, then matched the information in his mind with the person before him.

Belleth Klein was taken aback by Alan Yeger's address, appearing somewhat uncomfortable. Without further hesitation, she ran to the center of the meeting room, bowed deeply toward the elderly gentleman seated at the head of the table, and said firmly, her teeth clenched.

I'm sorry, Second Grandpa—I had just finished cleaning the office when I asked Alan Yager to come in first. I never expected him to be so rude.

No need.

The elderly man in the chair waved his hand, but when he noticed that Alan Yager remained completely indifferent, he frowned and looked at him.

Alan Yager! Apologize immediately!!

Belleth Klein was startled by this and immediately turned to glare at Alan Yeger angrily, but he seemed completely unaware of her reaction and remained unmoved.

Alan Yegel, what's wrong with you?! Are you crazy?!

Belleth Klein, noticing Alan Yeger's unusual behavior, hurried over, reached out to pull him, and struggled to move him. But she found Alan Yeger rooted firmly to the floor like a nail—no amount of effort could free him.

I'm begging you—could you please apologize?!

Belleth Klein watched the old man's face grow increasingly somber; as if something had struck him, tears welled up in his eyes.

Seeing her face, Alan Yegel recalled all the hardships she had endured over the years. His heart softened as he let out a soft sigh; unexpectedly, he reached out to wipe away the tears from the corner of her eye and took a few steps forward.

Belleth Klein was completely unprepared for Alan Yager's move, and her mind went blank instantly.

How on earth could he... do this??

Alan Yegel ignored the stunned Bethel Klein, approached the old man, and nodded slightly.

""This apology was said out of consideration for my wife.""

After saying this, he ignored everyone's angry expressions and walked over to Duff Klein, smiling at him.

""What did you say back then?""

""What?! You really...""

Bang!!

Belleth Klein came to her senses just in time to overhear their conversation. Before she could even make sense of what was being said, she heard a sharp crack, followed by the sound of someone falling to the ground, and then waves of exclamations of shock echoing throughout the meeting room.

""Alan Yager, what a bold move!""

""Military child!!""

""Damn it!! You're going to turn the whole situation upside down!!""

I'll kill this damn backdoor!!

""Some damn thing!!"""
