Chapter 656
Jordan put on a conflicted expression. “Miyamoto, it’s not that I want to hide things from you or that I don’t want to help you. But I can’t decide on this matter on my own! My grandfather has the final say in our family. Without his permission, no one would dare to share our technology. Today, your family joined forces with the Park family to humiliate my grandfather. I don’t think he will want to help you!”
When Miyamoto Masaki recalled what happened at the meeting today, he couldn’t help feeling extremely regretful!
“It’s all because of the damn Park family. They tricked our Miyamoto family into going against yours! Jordan, I’ve always respected Mr. Steele. I was in the wrong today. I swear that there won’t be a next time! Please give me a chance to make up for my mistakes!”
Jordan said indifferently, “Looks like you’re quite sincere. Apologize to my grandfather during tomorrow’s meeting!”
Miyamoto Masaki said, “Of course, of course! I wonder what Mr. Steele likes? I’ll give you a gift as an apology.”
Jordan said, “There’s no need for gifts. My grandfather doesn’t lack anything. However, my grandfather likes to drink tea. Make some tea for him tomorrow morning. Perhaps my grandfather will have a better impression of you.”
Jordan’s grandfather had been humiliated today. He was clearly the oldest and most experienced person across the eight great families, but he had been disrespected by so many juniors! Therefore, Jordan wanted to help his grandfather regain his dignity!
The others had been so disrespectful to Charleston today. But tomorrow, they would have to bow and serve him tea!
Miyamoto Masaki immediately agreed. “Alright, I will definitely brew some tea in advance and wait for Mr. Steele to arrive!”
Jordan nodded. “Okay. My sister and I still have to go star-gazing. We’ll leave first.” novelbin
Miyamoto Masaki bowed and watched them leave. “Jordan, Miss Jodie, please take care!”
The two of them walked into the distance. Lota burst out laughing. “Jordan, you’re so good at lying! You fooled Miyamoto Masaki. And I thought he was very smart!”
During the previous two great meetings, Lota had felt that Miyamoto Masaki was very shrewd and looked a little scary. She did not expect him to be played like a fool by Jordan and Dragon today.
Jordan hurriedly made a “shushing” gesture. “Shh, be careful. The walls have ears. We’ll talk about this when we get home.”
Jordan was very cautious.
Lota looked around. “This is a mountain. There are no walls. Also, why did you put your finger on your mouth? If you don’t want me to speak, shouldn’t you put your finger on my mouth?”
Jordan was a little exasperated by Lota’s naivety and ignorance.
He couldn’t be bothered to explain. “Alright, I’ll ‘shush’ you again then.”
This time, Jordan placed his index finger on her lips. However, she suddenly opened her mouth and bit his finger.
“Hahaha, you are so stupid. You’ve been deceived!”
“Silly girl, how dare you bite me! Don’t run!”
….
While the two of them were playing around and admiring the stars, Park Anya changed into a black dress and went to the Steele family’s house.
Knock-knock.
Park Anya knocked on the wooden door. She had very good manners and would not enter without being invited.
Jesse heard the knock and went to the door. He immediately put on a very courteous manner when he saw that it was Park Anya. “Ms. Park, why are you here? Please come in!”
Park Anya bowed politely to Jesse and clasped her hands together in front of her. “I’m here to look for Jordan. I won’t disturb Mr. Steele’s rest. Can you call Jordan out?”
“Unfortunately, Jordan just went out,” said Jesse.
Park Anya asked, “Where did he go?”
Jesse shook his head. “I don’t know. He doesn’t report his comings and goings to me.”
Park Anya replied politely, “Sorry to disturb you.”
Park Anya turned to leave. Just as she was about to leave in disappointment, she suddenly saw Jordan holding hands with a brunette girl and walking back happily.
Jordan also saw Park Anya. “Madam? You came to find me?”
“Hello, Sister Anya!” Lota greeted Park Anya as well.
Park Anya glanced at Lota and asked, “And you are?”
Lota took off her wig. “I’m Lota. Don’t you recognize me? Looks like my makeup skills are really good. Haha.”
Park Anya smiled and greeted her as well.
Jordan could tell that Park Anya was looking for him for something, so he asked Lota to go in first.
After Lota left, Jordan asked Park Anya again, “Why are you looking for me? We’ve known each other for so long but this is the first time you’ve taken the initiative to look for me. I hope it’s for something interesting.”
Park Anya looked at Jordan and felt admiration for the first time.
This man was younger than her, and he was not as mature as her. In fact, she had thought that his status was far inferior to hers.
As a result, although Park Anya had always liked Jordan, she never seriously considered him as a potential partner.
But today, Jordan’s performance was too outstanding!
He had single-handedly saved the Steele family from being expelled!
Not only that, he had even made the Rong and Geng families look at the Steeles in a different light!
Although he had done it using deception, Park Anya still admired Jordan’s ability!
This was the first time in four years that Park Anya felt that Jordan was a real possibility!
She wanted Jordan to be her man!
Park Anya crossed her arms and smiled charmingly. “What would be interesting?”
Jordan said, “Star-gazing, treating me to coffee, or watching a movie. They’re all very interesting things.”
Park Anya was very direct. “Why don’t we go straight to the bedroom?”
“Ahem…”
Jordan was shocked by Park Anya’s words. Damn, this woman sure moved fast. He was caught off guard!
Jordan composed himself. He teased her. “What? Am I finally qualified to be your man?”
Park Anya nodded. “There is a little hope for you, but it will take time and effort for you to completely conquer me.”
Jordan smiled. It was not easy to make Park Anya relent and say that he could become her man!
“Alright, I’ll continue to work hard. Sooner or later, I’ll completely conquer you! By then, I’m just worried that you’ll drag me into a hotel room, tie me to the bed and not let me out.”
Park Anya did not mind Jordan’s suggestive joke at all, even though she was currently someone else’s wife.
This meant that Jordan’s status was becoming increasingly high in Park Anya’s heart.
Park Anya said, “Alright, stop joking. My father asked me to come. Today, you took credit for our Park family’s research and even pretended to be a generous person, giving our medicine to Chairman Rong and Madam Geng. You owe us an explanation, right?”
Chapter 657
Jordan shrugged and the smile on his face slowly faded. “This is what I would classify as ‘not interesting’.”
Park Anya knew that Jordan did not want to talk about this, but she insisted. “Jordan, in order to save your family today, you deliberately deceived the other family representatives. The medicine you presented can’t make anyone 20 years younger. Your family didn’t successfully develop the serum either. You lied to us all, right?”
Park Anya was asking the obvious!
As a part of the Park family, she knew the backstory behind this entire matter, including Scarlett Johansson’s part in it. So she shouldn’t ask such a stupid question.
It would be like if the two of them were sitting on a plane and she turned to ask Jordan, “Hey, we are on a plane now, right?”
No one would ask such an obvious question unless she had an ulterior motive.
Jordan snorted softly. He could see through this woman’s motive with a single glance!
Turning toward Park Anya, he approached her swiftly, reaching her in mere moments. He pressed his body against hers. Her fragrance wafted over him.
Jordan circled his arms around Park Anya’s waist.
“What are you doing?”
Park Anya backed away nervously.
“Not here.”
Jordan had no intention of taking advantage of Park Anya. If he was that kind of man, he would have already done this four years ago on the battlefield.
In fact, Jordan was actually looking for something. A recording device!
When he couldn’t find it at her waist, Jordan searched her back again.
“It’s not here either.”
Park Anya did not dare to move. She knew how strong Jordan was. Even Miyamoto Masaki, who could punch a hole in the wall, was not his match. In the end, she was a weak woman. It was useless for her to resist.
Park Anya pretended to be pitiful. “Jordan, don’t be like this. I know you like me, but if others see you doing this to me in public, they won’t have a good impression of us. I have a husband. For his sake, please show me some respect!”
Park Anya kept talking.
But Jordan ignored her. Soon, a smile appeared on his face.
“Found it! So it was hidden in your hair. You’re really something.”
Jordan found a small black clip in Park Anya’s long black hair. There was a small recorder on it.
Jordan removed the recording device and threw it out.
“You wanted to record my words and play them for Chairman Rong, right?” Jordan asked with a smile.
Park Anya no longer pretended to be a weak woman. She smiled back. “You’re so young but so vigilant. I have to admit that I like you a little.”
“Do you like me? Kiss me then.”
Jordan moved again and quickly kissed Park Anya.
When he was looking for the recording device earlier, Jordan kept inhaling Park Anya’s fragrance and was finding her hard to resist.
“You…”
Park Anya was shocked. Although she felt helpless and somewhat indignant, a smile was on her face.
Jordan said, “I’m a gentleman. When you said that I wasn’t worthy of you in the past, I didn’t even touch your hand. Now that you say you like me, I can kiss you. You won’t be angry, right?”
Park Anya smiled. She really wasn’t angry. She continued, “Actually, I know that even if you didn’t realize I was secretly recording our conversation, you still wouldn’t admit what happened today. I came because I have something else to ask you.”
Jordan extended a finger and said, “One question, one kiss.”
Park Anya reached out and pressed his hand down. “Seriously, stop joking. This matter is really important to me.”
Jordan had never seen Park Anya talk to him like this, so he nodded. “Alright, ask away. What is it?”
Park Anya asked, “When you treated your grandfather in the conference room today, you used the voodoo technique. It’s the thing that can create white mist on a person’s back… who did you learn it from?”
Jordan said, “My family’s traditional medicine expert. Why? Do you want to learn too? You would have to marry into the Steele family. I already have two wives. So I don’t think you have a chance unless
you’re willing to be a mistress, haha.”
Park Anya still looked very serious. “Then do you know of anyone else who knows this technique?”
Jordan thought for a moment and said, “This thing was invented to help my father pick up girls in the past. In the family, only my father and I know it.”
Park Anya was instantly excited. “How old is your father?”
Jordan replied, “He should be 50 years old this year. Why?”
“50 years old…”
Park Anya’s eyes flickered as if she was in a daze. No one knew what she was thinking.
“Hello? Hello?”
Jordan poked her soft arm. “What’s wrong? Do you want to know my father?”
Park Anya shook her head. “No.”
When she looked at Jordan again, her gaze had completely changed. Previously, it was tender and sweet, like a woman looking at the man she liked and admired.
But now, her gaze was a little distant.
“It’s late. I should go back,” Park Anya said expressionlessly.
“Aren’t we going to my bedroom?” Jordan joked.
Park Anya said sternly, “Please don’t make such jokes again!”
With that, Park Anya turned around and left angrily.
Jordan couldn’t help feeling depressed. “She fell out with me just like that. She was fine when I kissed her earlier, but now, I can’t even make jokes. Anyway, she was the one who talked about going to my bedroom first…”
Nevertheless, Jordan did not have time to worry about Park Anya. The safety and honor of the Steele family were the most important to him!
…. novelbin
The next day.
The Park and Miyamoto families were still the first to arrive at the conference hall. After Park Sang-jun led his children in, he saw Miyamoto Chujiro and Miyamoto Masaki setting up tea on a table.
The two of them were making the tea very carefully.
Park Sang-jun walked over with a smile on his face. “Mr. Miyamoto, Masaki, you guys are really in a good mood. You’re actually making tea. Can I have a cup?”
Park Sang-jun reached out to take a teacup.
However, Miyamoto Masaki shouted, “Stop! This is tea for Jordan’s grandfather!”
Everyone in the Park family was shocked.
Park Chan-young said angrily, “Masaki, are you crazy? Yesterday, Jordan beat you until your face was swollen. Today, you actually came in early to make tea for his grandfather? I’ve already told you. Jordan was just bragging yesterday. Their medicine was stolen from our family. The Steeles are nothing. They’re just a trash family!”
Miyamoto Masaki said, “Enough! You in the Park family are too ignorant! I won’t believe you anymore. You almost made me offend the great Steele family!”
Chapter 658
By now, Miyamoto Masaki now completely believed in Jordan and acknowledged the Steele family’s strength. He looked at Park Chan-young in disdain.
“Your Park family still has the cheek to look down on the Steeles? Just in terms of secret research, the Steeles are superior to you! You guys only know how to research superficial things like improving a person’s appearance. So basic and crass! The Steele and Miyamoto families have the same aspirations. We choose to focus on improving the human physique, on combat skills!”
Miyamoto Masaki had always looked down on the Park family. But as the two families had a long history together, he was too polite to voice out his disdain.
Park Chan-young was young and impetuous. How could he tolerate Miyamoto Masaki insulting his family like this?
Almost jumping to his feet, Park Chan-young immediately retorted, “Ha, what a joke! The Park family is basic? You’re the one who can only see the surface! Our current medicine can only make a person look young. But once we manage to have a breakthrough, we can make a person’s full bodily functions return to their youth!
“Do you know what this means? We don’t have to worry about getting old anymore! Athletes will always be at their peak! Michael Jordan, who is about to turn 60, can return to his peak. He can beat LeBron James and Zion Williamson until they call him Daddy! He can win the seventh championship of his career! How dare you say that this isn’t great?!”
Miyamoto Masaki snorted. “What’s the big deal about returning to your youth?! Once our family’s Mirakuru serum is successfully developed and the side effects are eliminated, any athlete will become Superman after being injected! I can let Michael Jordan do a slam dunk from the three-point line! Tell me, between our two families, whose research is greater!”
The two juniors began to argue with flushed faces, each refusing to give way.
At that moment, Lota’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Schmid, walked in.
Tom Schmid smiled as he approached them. “Haha, I heard you two families arguing the moment I entered. Haven’t your families always gotten along?”
Park Chan-young said, “Mr. Schmid, you came at the right time. Mr. Miyamoto thinks that our Park family’s research is basic and crass. Be our judge. Between our two families, whose research is greater?”
The eight great families had always been unwilling to tell others about their private research. However, after Jordan’s reveal yesterday, everyone already knew about the research conducted by the Park and Miyamoto families.
Tom Schmid gave a strange smile. “Do you want me to tell the truth? I don’t think the research of either of your families can be considered the greatest.”
“What did you say?!”
Park Chan-young and Miyamoto Masaki both looked at Tom Schmid.
Park Sang-jun suddenly spoke up. “Mr. Schmid, tell us then, what kind of research can be considered great?”
Miyamoto Chujiro also looked very serious. “I’m willing to listen to Mr. Schmid’s opinion!”
Tom Schmid’s words had offended both families.
Tom Schmid smiled proudly. “Mr. Park and Mr. Miyamoto. The research of your two families is equal. Both improve the physical body and make it more perfect. However, in my opinion, this goal is not good
enough. No matter how strong and invincible the body is, it’s still controlled by the mind. No matter how perfect and invincible your body is, if your mind is controlled by someone, hehe…
“Wouldn’t all that strength just go to benefit that someone?”
The Park family members immediately gulped in fear. They knew that the Tom Schmid in front of them was actually Shaun Handley! And Shaun Handley had used some kind of sorcery to control Tom Schmid.
The Miyamoto family, on the other hand, knew nothing about this. They were confused by Tom Schmid’s words. novelbin
Soon, the other families also arrived.
The Steeles were the last to arrive!
Jesse had wanted to come earlier, but Jordan deliberately delayed until the very last minute before letting his grandfather appear. After all, Jordan’s grandfather was the most senior among the eight great families. It was only right for him to be the last to appear!
At 9:59, the Steeles finally arrived “late.” No one criticized the Steele family for arriving at the last minute. Instead, they were very polite.
Especially the Miyamoto family.
“Mr. Steele!”
Miyamoto Masaki walked up to Charleston and bowed low!
“Mr. Steele, I was rude to you yesterday. Please be magnanimous and forgive me!”
Charleston was a little surprised. He didn’t understand why Miyamoto Masaki would apologize to him.
“Of course, of course,” Charleston replied politely.
Miyamoto Chujiro also walked over. “Mr. Steele, my son and I have specially prepared some tea for you. Please have a cup.”
Miyamoto Chujiro took the initiative to pick up a teacup for Charleston.
Charleston was not used to this sudden change in attitude. “Oh, you shouldn’t have!”
Miyamoto Chujiro said, “Mr. Steele, you’re my elder. Of course I should!”
Chairman Rong, who was sitting at the far end, also said, “That’s right, Mr. Steele. Have some tea first. There’s no hurry for us to start the meeting. We can all wait for you.”
Holding up his teacup, Charleston looked as excited as a child!
It had been too many years since members of the other secret families had shown him such respect at a secret meeting!
“Thank you, thank you!”
Charleston happily drank the tea in one gulp. This was the sweetest and most fragrant tea he had drunk in recent years!
Seeing his grandfather so happy, Jordan also felt very happy!
Yesterday, Grandpa was so angry that he vomited blood. Today, Jordan wanted Grandpa to feel a million times happier!
After taking their seats, the meeting officially began at 10:10.
Chairman Rong continued to host the meeting. “Let’s talk about the current world war.”
Suddenly, Park Sang-jun raised his hand. “I have something to report! I received news that some time ago, Jordan from the Steele family flew his Zephyr Three 3 to the India-Pakistan battlefield and even used an advanced weapon to destroy a drone on the battlefield! Our rules clearly stipulate that we are not allowed to interfere in wars. The Steele family has violated the rules. I request to punish the Steele family!”
Charleston frowned. It seemed that the Park family was still unwilling to let the Steeles off!
There was indeed such a rule for the eight great families. They could not use their advanced weapons to interfere in any of the current wars. It was just like how there were tigers and sharks in this world. Tigers and sharks could kill people and were a threat to human lives.
However, humans didn’t drive them to extinction because of this.
There was a natural order to the circle of life in this world. The eight great families unanimously agreed that they should not intervene in any of the current wars. They would let nature take its course, as long as it wasn’t a threat to their own safety.
Chairman Rong did not immediately rebuke Jordan. Instead, he looked at him kindly.
“Jordan, can you tell everyone what happened? Why did you destroy the drone on the battlefield? Was the drone threatening you?”
Chapter 659
Having received a large gift from Jordan yesterday, Charman Rong was siding with him today. Even as he was asking Jordan, he had already included an excuse for him inside his question.
‘Was the drone threatening you?’
If that was the case, then it was understandable that Jordan fired his weapon to protect himself!
For a middle-aged man like Chairman Rong, Jordan’s youth-enhancing pill was not that useful. He wasn’t as vain as Geng Anli who wanted to return to his younger-looking days.
Chairman Rong would not take this medicine himself. Instead, he would hand it to the Rong family’s medical team and let them study the ingredients of this medicine.
Actually, it was the same for Geng Anli. She didn’t plan to take it herself. Instead, she would hand it over to her family’s medical department for experimental research.
With the Rong and Geng families’ technology standards, they would be able to successfully replicate the medicine and end up surpassing the Park family!
Jordan said slowly, “Yes. At that time, the drone was just about to strike me. I attacked it out of self- preservation.”
Park Sang-jun snorted and said, “You shouldn’t have appeared on the battlefield in the first place! You flew a plane right into a battlefield, of course you will be attacked! You should be punished!”
In response to the accusation, Jordan said unhurriedly, “I went to the India-Pakistan battlefield to save a 15-year-old girl.”
Park Sang-jun said, “Haha, you really know how to find excuses. What kind of girl is worthy of you, the great Jordan Steele, flying to a battlefield to save her? Hahaha.”novelbin
Jordan felt his anger rising but he replied calmly, “Your granddaughter.”
“Bullsh*t! You are the one who broke the rules but want to drag our Park family into this!” Park Sang-jun shouted.
Jordan said, “I’m not lying. Your granddaughter, Park Sora, was brought to the battlefield by a bad person.”
Smack!
Park Sang-jun slammed the table angrily. “Jordan! How dare you ruin our Park family’s reputation! Do you want to die?!”
Jordan took out his phone and chose a photo. He had secretly taken it with a long-range camera lens that day.
“Wow!”
There was a major uproar the moment everyone saw the photo!
“This little girl is really good-looking. It’s a pity that we can’t see the man’s face. How dare he kidnap a woman from one of the eight great families? He must be courting death!”
“This little girl looks like Park Chan-young. I wonder if she’s Park Chan-young’s child?”
“The age doesn’t seem, right? Park Chan-young isn’t that old.”
The family representatives started discussing.
Park Sang-jun was speechless the moment he saw Park Sora.
Chairman Rong said, “It looks like Jordan broke the rules by firing his weapon to save Mr. Park’s granddaughter. Mr. Park, you really shouldn’t repay kindness with hatred!”
Miyamoto Chujiro also spoke up. “That’s right. He saved your granddaughter. Instead of thanking him, you made a complaint against him? Just because he knows about your granddaughter’s scandal? Hehe, I heard that Mr. Park is very flirtatious. He’s already so old, but he always has many young women around him. I wonder if this is a genetic trait.”
Park Sang-jun felt completely humiliated. He was unable to refute it at all. He could only vent his anger on Park Anya, glaring at her.
Chairman Rong said, “Alright, I don’t think Mr. Park will pursue this matter anymore. Jordan, don’t do it again, okay?”
Jordan nodded.
After that, the families analyzed the situation of the various wars, as well as potential conflicts in the years to come.
At the end of the meeting, Charleston suddenly said, “I have an idea that has nothing to do with today’s agenda. I don’t know if it’s appropriate to raise this now.”
Miyamoto Chujiro was the first to smile and say, “We will listen carefully to whatever Mr. Steele has to say. It cannot possibly be inappropriate.”
Chairman Rong also nodded. “That’s right, Mr. Steele, feel free to say whatever you want. We are like family here. I will try my best to satisfy any request.”
Charleston felt very pleased. He finally had some prestige among the eight secret families. And it was all thanks to Jordan! Therefore, he wanted to do something for Jordan, or rather, for his “newly-adopted
little sister”!
Lota couldn’t return home after running away. She couldn’t even see her parents. It was pitiful.
In addition, the Steeles had been friendly with the Schmids for decades. Charleston couldn’t bear to see the Schmid family fall into the hands of a despicable sorcerer.
However, it was not appropriate to expose the Schmid family in front of the other families now.
Therefore, Charleston just glanced at Tom Schmid and said, “I want to set the venue for next year’s meeting in advance.”
Park Sang-jun crossed his arms and snorted. “You’re already 79 years old, yet you still dare to think about next year. You’re really confident about your lifespan.”
Chairman Rong said, “Mr. Steele is our most senior member. He has the right to decide the venue of our great meetings. I am sure you will choose somewhere very meaningful. Mr. Steele, which venue do you propose?”
Charleston pointed at the Schmids opposite him. “Switzerland, at Schmid’s castle!”
“What!?!”
Tom Schmid’s face suddenly turned pallid!
He was afraid!
Jordan also clenched his fists. Damn the Handley family. Did they think he would just stand by and watch them control Lota’s family?
If the other families could gather at the Schmid’s house next year, it would be very easy to expose the true situation of the Schmid family. By then, the truth about Shaun Handley controlling the Schmid couple would be uncovered!
Moreover, Jordan and the others would have an entire year to think about how to deal with the Handley family.
Tom Schmid was very nervous. He said slowly, “My castle is our family’s private residence. I’m afraid it’s not appropriate to hold a meeting in such a private venue, right?”
Charleston laughed. “Tom, your illness must have gotten the better of you. Your memory has also deteriorated. 10 years ago, you told me that you wanted to invite people from the secret families to your castle for a meeting. Have you forgotten?”
As he spoke, he didn’t forget to look at the bootlicker beside him. “I remember that Miyamoto Chujiro was also there when you said that.”
Miyamoto Chujiro hurriedly said, “That’s right! I heard it with my own ears. Tom, you did suggest it!”
Chairman Rong and Madam Geng exchanged smiles. Of course, they also wanted to go to Schmid’s house for a meeting!
The Schmid family had always been quite mysterious. The Rong and Geng families wanted to know what technology they were secretly researching! Since the Steeles were very much in Chairman Rong’s favor now, he also chimed in.
Chairman Rong said, “Tom, since you mentioned it yourself, it’s settled then! We’ll all go to your house next year!”
Chapter 660
Geng Anli chimed in. “I’ve always liked Switzerland very much. I’ve been there several times over the past few years. Every time I go there and call Tom, wanting to visit his house, he rejects me. Toward the end, he just stopped answering his phone. Tom, I must visit your castle next year.”
Now that Chairman Rong and Madam Geng had spoken in favor, the other family representatives also voiced their agreement.
“Yes, Tom. I was there when you told Mr. Steele about inviting us.”
“That’s right. You said it yourself. How could you forget?”
Tom Schmid looked like he was in a dilemma. He did not expect to encounter such a situation today.
Charleston smiled. “All of the families want to visit your place. Are you going to reject us?”
Tom gritted his teeth and forced a smile. “All right, then. I’ll agree to this for now.”
Soon, the meeting ended.
Tom walked over to Charleston.
Tom smiled. “Mr. Steele, I wonder if you are free tonight? I would like to go to your place for tea and catch up with you.”
Tom Schmid wanted to come!
Almost immediately, Jesse and Jordan both felt that this was not a good thing! After all, Lota was in the Steele family’s house.
Still, the Schmids must have known this already.
Charleston was already 79 and had seen it all. He was not afraid of Tom Schmid so he said, “Sure, I’ll be waiting!”
“See you then.”
Tom left quickly.
“Grandpa, I don’t think we should let Tom visit us! I already said not to get involved in Lota’s family matters. Why should we get tangled up in some messy situation because of an outsider?” Jesse quietly complained to Charleston.
Jordan said, “Jesse, if you’re afraid, you can stay somewhere else once the sky turns dark. Grandpa and I aren’t afraid of that guy.”
Jesse retorted. “Fine. I don’t care what you do!”
With that, Jesse stood up and left.
Jesse was indeed afraid of the Handley family. Ever since Jordan told him that Dragon had almost been strangled to death by one of them at the castle, Jesse had been too afraid to come into contact with the Schmids.
He was even a little fearful of the innocent and cute Lota. He was worried that she would suddenly transform from a “Holy Maiden” to a “Witch”.
…
7 pm at night.
There were no stars in the night sky, and the cold wind grew increasingly chilly.
Charleston, Jordan and Lota were sitting in a room.
Jordan held Lota’s hand tightly because she was trembling. He had told Lota the good news after they returned from the meeting. He said that the eight families would work together to get rid of Shaun Handley and save her parents.
Lota was very happy and jumped onto Jordan happily.
However, when she heard that Tom, or rather, Shaun Handley, was coming tonight, she was so frightened that she didn’t dare to speak.
From noon until now, she had not eaten or drunk a single drop of water.
Jordan had thought of sending Lota away during Shaun’s visit.
However, Jordan was confident that he could protect her. Moreover, he wanted Lota to face Shaun directly. Jordan wanted her to know that this person was not terrifying!
“Don’t be nervous. With me around, no one can touch you. Have you forgotten that you’re my milkshake?”
Jordan comforted her softly.
“Milkshake” was an inside joke between Jordan and Lota.
Lota would say: ‘What? I’m just a cup of milkshake to you?’
She would then force Jordan to reply: ‘This way, I can hold you in the palm of my hand.’
18-year-old girls were really troublesome…
Lota laughed at that. “I’m thirsty. I’ll get a cup of milk.”
“Okay.”novelbin
Jordan was very glad to see that Lota was finally willing to drink something.
Lota got up and walked towards the door of the room. However, just as she reached the door, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her!
It was Tom Schmid!
Tom was like a quiet breeze. He suddenly appeared at the door without making a single sound!
Tom was Lota’s father. However, when he saw her, he just stared at him with a very strange and somewhat perverted expression!
“Ah!”
Lota was so frightened that she scampered back into Jordan’s arms!
“Daddy! Daddy! Daddy…”
Tears streamed down her face as she cried and called out for her father.
Jordan had never seen Lota cry so hard!
He was very moved by her sobbing. He got a little teary-eyed himself.
And Charleston was the same!
Lota’s father was clearly standing there, but she didn’t throw herself into his arms. She couldn’t even look at him! After all, Lota knew that man was not the real Tom Schmid!
It was the demon who was controlling her father’s body, Shaun Handley!
He had planned to take Lota as his woman during her coming-of-age ceremony!
“Daddy… Daddy… Daddy… Boohoo…”
Lota wailed. Countless sparkling tears soaked Jordan’s clothes. Right now, she could only stay in Jordan’s arms and call out Daddy, expressing her longing for her real father.
Jordan clenched his fists. Over this period, although Jordan did not have any romantic feelings for Lota, a close relationship had developed between them. He really couldn’t bear to see Lota crying so pitifully and calling out Daddy.
The last time a woman who called out Daddy while in his arms was Hailey…
However, how could that R-rated scene compare to this heart-wrenching sight today!
Tom gave a strange smile. “Darling, Daddy is here. Why don’t you want to look at me? Jordan is not your father.”
Jordan cursed angrily, “M*therf*cking b*stard!”
Tom was stunned. He had been living in European high society for years and never expected to hear Jordan scold him with such vulgar words. In fact, people in Northern Europe seldom use this kind of English swear words. He had not heard anyone scold him like that for at least 20 years.
Tom was very indignant and blurted out. “What did you say?!”
Jordan said, “Oh? Why has your accent suddenly changed to American?”
Tom paused before quickly resuming his act. “Excuse me? What did you just say?”
Jordan continued to scold him. “I said you’re a son of a b*tch! A real c*cks*cking d*uchebag!”
Jordan purposefully threw all sorts of common American swear words at Tom.
Tom couldn’t resist anymore. “Kass twa you white trailer trash! You ain’t worth a damn!”
