However, Lydia knew her mother all too well. When she saw her mother's evasive eyes, she asked coldly, "Do you think I'll believe you?"Jennifer was anxious. She did not expect her daughter to react like that. Jennifer was furious as she said, "So what if you don't believe me? Are you going to kill me too?"I did find an assassin to kill him, and it cost me more than 1.5 million dollars. If he weren't the young master of the Truman family, I wouldn't have called it off. I wasted that money in vain."He wasted so much of my money. I haven't even asked him for the 1.5 million dollars yet. How can he not help me?" Jennifer said angrily. To her, everything was others' fault and not hers."You—"Lydia almost spat out a mouthful of blood out of frustration. She looked at her father and grandfather angrily and said, "All of you are unreasonable and hopeless!"As she spoke, she immediately took out her cell phone and called Henry. The assassination mission was called off, but who knew if
Lydia, however, had a different feeling. She was angry at what her parents did but hated herself for her inability to make her family treat Henry well.At the same time, she was touched by Henry's generosity. Although her mother's actions toward him were ridiculous and unforgivable, he did not even mention them.He obviously did not want to embarrass her, so he decided not to mention it.His kindness to her and his meticulous care for her made her feel particularly ashamed.He had done so much for her and was generous again and again. However, she could not even solve her family's problems."Henry, I'm sorry, it's my fault. I promise, in the future..." John sighed. He regretted it because he finally could see everything clearly.Henry was in a bad mood, something they did not expect. He had always respected John, but he did not at that moment.Henry said coldly, "Forget it; don't promise anything. Your last promise is still ringing in my ears, but what's the use of it?""Yes, i
"There's nothing I can do." John ignored her completely.Jennifer was anxious. She looked at Lydia again.Lydia shook her head and said, "Mom, don't worry. I'll discuss it with Grandpa.""Alright, you must discuss it with him." Jennifer nodded quickly.Lydia found John.John sighed and said, "Lydia, I'm sorry. I know I was wrong. I hope it's not too late. I hope it will not affect your relationship with Henry.""Grandpa, I'm happy that you think that. Judging from his attitude, Henry and I still have a great chance. However, the most important problem is that my parents still haven't realized their mistakes yet," Lydia said helplessly.John was stunned. He looked at Lydia and said, "Do you want me to teach them a lesson?""Not to teach them a lesson, but to let them know where their mistake lies and what to do in the future. Otherwise, they will eventually cause more problems."I can't let Henry suffer through this again. Otherwise, I don't deserve to be his wife."After that
Henry had already had the thought in his mind, but he had never been able to confirm it. As such, he asked the question quickly."Madam Delvey is your mother, Anna Delvey. She's in Fairford Manor, outside the city."Anna had specifically instructed Emily not to tell Henry about that. However, Emily finally went against her instructions—it was the first time she had gone against Anna's wishes.Anna was like a savior to Emily, who would have died if no one had helped her then.Henry's expression suddenly turned cold when he heard that. He said, "Tell her to find a way to buy time. I'll rush over immediately."He hung up and went out immediately.'Mom, please be alright.'More thoughts rushed into his mind. His mother might have hidden outside Hodbridge to avoid being found by him. They were living in a hotel before that.Fortunately, the place was just a short distance from Henry's location. At an average speed, it took nearly an hour. With Henry's speed, he would definitely arri
That woman was Anna, Henry's mother, the wife of Albert Truman, Henry's father.Anna looked at Cobalt Dragon, who was standing in front of her. She said coldly, "General Cobalt Dragon, you found us so quickly?""So, you admit that you killed General Ivory Unicorn?" Cobalt Dragon asked indifferently. He was not angry, just cold, as if he did not care.It was just a trivial matter. He would not have bothered if it had not been for the request from those above him."What good will it do if I deny it?" Anna said coldly. "I'm just curious. How did you know it was us, and how did you find this place?""Phantom technique. I have to say, you have erased almost all of your traces. But Brice's injuries exposed the Phantom Society."And by following the trace of the Phantom Society, I found your envoys. As for finding you, naturally, both of them brought us here. After all, I'm looking for the person behind everything," Cobalt Dragon said."So that was how you found us. It seemed the probl
The masters behind Cobalt Dragon were shocked, too. Although they knew the general was very powerful, they rarely saw him in action.After witnessing what had just transpired, they realized he was indeed much stronger than they had imagined.At least they knew they would not have been able to defend against his move."Phantom Master, please leave. We'll fight him and should be able to hold him back. No one else would interfere with you except him," Crowley said, transmitting his voice to Anna.A Grandmaster had the ability to transmit their voices to specific people. Of course, the distance they could transmit depended on their strength.He was fortunate that only Cobalt Dragon was present that day. The other Grandmasters were likely elders from the Supreme Defenders, and their strength was not greater than Anna's.However, Anna shook her head and said coldly, "As the Phantom Master, how can I let you fight for me? Furthermore, the two of you will not be able to stop him."It mi
Their eyes were filled with shock.It was obvious Cobalt Dragon had not used his full strength.Otherwise, they would not have been able to hold on for even a moment. In other words, when he claimed he could defeat ten of them, he was not boasting.Cobalt Dragon looked at them coldly and said, "Phantom Master Delvey, I'll give you one last chance. Tell me why you killed Brice, and I won't kill you today. I'll just take you back with me.""There was no reason," Anna said coldly. She would rather die than be captured.She had never imagined Cobalt Dragon's strength would be so terrifying."Fine then! You're asking for death." Cobalt Dragon shook his head, raising his right hand to attack.However, at that moment, a worried yet urgent voice was heard in the distance, "Stop! Stop!"Shortly after, a stunning woman rushed over at great speed.It was Emily.Anna was furious to see Emily return. She had deliberately let Emily go to warn her son and let her inherit the Phantom Society
"Trying to stall?" Cobalt Dragon asked calmly."Absolutely not. He'll be here soon," Emily said. She did not want Cobalt Dragon to act rashly."Whether it's true or not, I don't have time to waste. I'll give you three minutes. If he's not here by then, I'll kill all of you and report my actions," Cobalt Dragon said indifferently.Emily wanted to say something, but her whole body trembled slightly under Cobalt Dragon's gaze. She could not speak a single word.She felt oppressed as if imprisoned by some force.Emily possessed an outstanding talent for cultivation at the peak stage of Transformative Force. Though not a Grandmaster, she was a top fighter.In desperation, she prayed silently, 'Young Master, please come quickly. Otherwise, we'd all die, and your mother too.'Anna looked horrified. She asked, "Emily, who did you find? Is it him?"Though Anna did not mention his name, Emily could guess whom she meant. She hesitated and nodded."You—" Anna almost could not breathe, nea
