Legend of Dragon Son-in-law

Chapter 625: Chapter 625: The Neglected Express Delivery_1

“You… you’re here too?”

The moment Julius Reed saw Elwood Thorneycroft, he cursed inwardly, realizing this was bad.

With Rebecca Brown alone, he might have been able to bluff his way through with just a few words.

Now that Elwood Thorneycroft had bumped into them, it served the father and son right for their misfortune.

Enemies often cross paths, indeed.

Back at the airport, at the hotel, at the Cook Family’s home!

Julius Reed had set up traps everywhere; he was sure that with Fabian Percival’s intelligence, he’d have realized by now.

But it was a pity.

Because Elwood Thorneycroft had not taken action personally and his accomplice had committed suicide,

there was insufficient evidence, and he was released without charges.

This had frustrated Julius Reed for a whole five minutes.

“You know each other?”

Rebecca Brown was surprised to see Elwood Thorneycroft’s expression.

Elwood Thorneycroft is Fabian Percival’s daughter, who had just returned to the country a few days earlier.

She had been detained for a murder case and had just been released today.

They actually knew each other?

This made Rebecca Brown very interested in Julius Reed’s identity.

Could he be another person Mr. Thorneycroft brought back to the country?

“More than knowing each other…”

Elwood Thorneycroft sneered, looking at Julius Reed, “It’s etched deep in the bones, isn’t it, right?”

“Right! Right!”

Julius Reed nodded awkwardly, saying earnestly, “Miss Thorneycroft, how have you been? I’ve missed you terribly these past few days!”

The intimate nature of their conversation immediately delighted Damien Leopold.

“That, um…”

She stepped forward, looking at Rebecca Brown, “My husband and son just offended you earlier. Could you, as someone magnanimous, consider their relationship and let them off the hook for once, sparing the father and son?”

“Oh?”

Rebecca Brown raised an eyebrow, realizing this was a rescue attempt.

But seeing the relationship between the young man and Elwood Thorneycroft, he considered whether he should do them a favor.

After all, they had been tormented enough.

It was just a matter of going with the flow.

“Miss Thorneycroft, you and this gentleman…” Rebecca Brown outwardly inquired about their relationship, but what he was really asking was whether or not to release them.

Elwood Thorneycroft smiled and turned around, pointing to Julius Reed, “Boss Brown, do you know that I was once locked up for two days on a charge of murder?”

“I remember!”

Rebecca Brown nodded his head.

Fabian Percival had been set up after returning to the country and was severely beaten.

For revenge, Elwood Thorneycroft led a group to annihilate the entire Cook Family.

Later, they found out they had been framed.

The ones they fought weren’t the Cook family’s people.

And after they finished killing, the police just happened to arrive and caught them on the spot.

Elwood Thorneycroft had just left the police station today, and this meal was also a celebration for his release.

“Do you know who was behind all this?” Elwood Thorneycroft said with a cold smile, walking up to Julius Reed, “It was him!”

As soon as these words fell, everyone’s expression changed drastically!

“Someone!” Rebecca Brown called out sternly, and a dozen employees immediately surrounded them.

“Give the father and son in the room a good ‘welcome’!”

With a wave of his hand, howls came from inside the room immediately.

Utterly miserable.

“Julius Reed, you damn bastard! You’re trying to get us killed!” Damien Leopold glared with wide eyes, running up to Julius Reed like a maniac, “You’re not human, you animal!”

“I said before that if my arrival caused those two to suffer more severe injuries, I take no responsibility!”

Julius Reed pushed Damien Leopold away in disgust, turned around, and bowed, “Everyone, please continue to enjoy your meal. I won’t disturb you any longer.”

After speaking, he grabbed Quella Radcliffe’s hand and was about to walk away.

Indeed, enemies often meet on a narrow path.

What are the chances of an encounter?

“Stop right there!”

Elwood Thorneycroft shouted angrily, his body shooting toward Julius Reed like a bolt of lightning!

If she hadn’t seen him, she might have let it go, but he had almost cost her her life at the police station, a humiliation she couldn’t swallow!

“Honey, go downstairs and start the car!”

Julius Reed suddenly turned around and caught Elwood Thorneycroft’s leg as she attempted to kick him from midair, and yanked it fiercely!

Rip!

Elwood Thorneycroft’s sexy leather pants were torn apart, revealing a large expanse of pale skin.

“How vulgar!”

She quickly retracted her leg and stood in place, clenching her thighs together.

“Sorry, I’ve got a bit of an issue today. We’ll play another day, if we ever run into each other again,” Julius Reed said with a wink as he sprinted down the stairs.

He refrained from retaliating because he wanted the Ridge Family father and son to learn a lesson.

Moreover, this was a restaurant, and he didn’t want to start a fight there.

“Chase him!”

Rebecca Brown gestured, and the people in the room streamed out, pursuing him closely.

But by the time they got downstairs, Julius Reed had already left with Quella Radcliffe in a Rolls-Royce.

“Next time I see you, I’ll kill you!”

Elwood Thorneycroft watched the speeding sedan with teeth clenched in fury.

“Miss Thorneycroft, please go to your car. I’ll have someone buy you a change of clothes,” Rebecca Brown said concerningly as she walked out of the hotel.

“No need,” Elwood Thorneycroft refused curtly while apologetically adding, “I’m really sorry, I don’t feel very well and must take my leave.”

After saying that, she got into her BMW and drove towards the Five-lakes Clubhouse with a roar.

…

Meanwhile, in Gonzalez City at the Tomorrow Logistics Park.

Jennifer Lopez was sitting on a spacious sofa, holding a cup of coffee in her hand.

“Miss, why is there still no word from the people we sent out?”

Behind her stood two men.

One was in traditional attire, cradling a sword in his arms, his expression icy cold.

The other wore a Western suit and looked respectful.

“With Georgia Warm taking action, the other party is as good as dead!”

Before Jennifer Lopez could speak, the man holding the sword said coldly.

He was Larsen Warm, senior disciple of Chandler Swordman Nathanael Warm.

“Georgia Warm is very skilled, and I too believe Julius Reed is dead,” Jennifer Lopez nodded in agreement.

The real father of Zane Percival was Chandler Swordman Nathanael Warm!

And Arlo Percival was nothing more than a patsy!

Affronted by the humiliation of Zane Percival, Nathanael Warm had sent two disciples down the mountain, swearing to avenge his son!

Jennifer Lopez, using a spy she had planted close to Itai Huntington, had ascertained their whereabouts and had someone pose as Itai Huntington’s driver to lure Julius Reed to a homey retreat.

A live capture!

And an agreement was made to have the captive sent to the capital through Arlo Percival’s logistics network once he was caught.

But when several days passed without receiving the delivery, Jennifer Lopez decided to come in person.

The more pressing reason was that she had already made contact with Fabian Percival; the two were planning to join forces to take out Itai Huntington.

Back when she was violated, photographed, and those indecent photos appeared on the big screen of the Gonzalez City Business Alliance, she had become archenemies with Itai Huntington.

Enemies bound by a fatal enmity!

“Miss Lopez.”

Just then, Zane Percival walked in from outside. Upon seeing the two men beside Jennifer Lopez, he nodded and bowed, saying, “I do have a package for you here. It was an oversight by an employee; they forgot about it.”

Then he was sweating profusely.@@novelbin@@

Others might think they were husband and wife, but he was just a puppet.

“Come here.”

Jennifer Lopez nodded and gestured him closer with a crook of her finger.

“Alright.” Zane Percival hunched over and approached her cautiously.

Slap!

Jennifer Lopez slapped him across the face and scolded fiercely, “You’re such a waste! You managed to overlook such an important matter! Bring me that package right now!”

“Yes.”

Zane Percival, covering his face, turned and hurried away with a trot.

“Three days.”

Jennifer Lopez looked at her fingers and said with a smile, “Julius Reed, you better not suffocate. I’d be heartbroken!”
