The Beckards?Belinda looked frostily at Trevor and Ryan. She was almost certain that the two of them were just pawns of the Beckards!Perhaps they saw the Beckards as a formidable ally, but the Beckards were nothing to Belinda. Since the Beckards were behind all this, it was time to teach them a lesson!Belinda waved at Blake and handed her phone to him.Blake's jaw dropped. What did Belinda mean by that?Were they really going to call the Beckards? Was Belinda really willing to start a feud with the Beckards for Sebastian's sake? The Beckards were one of the Eight Great Families of Janover! This was very out of character for Belinda!However, at this point, Blake didn't dare to say anything further. He had no choice but to take Belinda's phone with conflicted feelings. He walked over to Sebastian, looking troubled. "Sebastian, t-tell the head of the Beckard family what you just said!" Blake found Clayton's number in the phone's contacts and made the call."Hello, Madam Dra
"Madam Dragon, the Beckards…" Blake's expression was a sight to behold. About ten days ago, Stephen had been beaten up so badly that he was now a cripple. From what the Beckards had said, Sebastian was probably the culprit. Otherwise, the Beckards wouldn't have sent someone to come all the way to Steinberg to deal with Sebastian.However, Belinda didn't even bother to ask about it. She had just stood up for Sebastian at once. She had never done something like that before!"If they dare to disobey, their entire family will be destroyed!" Belinda spoke shortly but very authoritatively.Trevor's mind went blank at once.When it really came down to it, if it hadn't been for the fact that they were on the Northmans' territory, the Northmans would not even dare to offend someone like Jace!However, the beautiful middle-aged woman standing before him had completely disregarded the Beckards! What kind of entity had Trevor offended?When he thought of the fact that Jace would very lik
Sebastian would not show any mercy to people like Francis.Besides, he already had such a deep feud with the Beckards. Since they were unable to resolve it, they might as well just fight to the death."Don't be impulsive, Mr. Ballard. Remember what I said just now. You have to make the elite unable to lift their heads in front of you. They're your target, not their lapdogs," Belinda said. She took out her phone and made the call right in front of Francis.Kendrick answered. He was the head of the Beckard family."Madam Dragon, it's a rare pleasure to get to speak to you on the phone!" Kendrick's respectful voice came from the other end."The dogs of your family are getting ready to bite. So, Mr. Beckard, tell us what your choice is. Would you rather settle things calmly, or do you want to perish together?" Belinda's tone was as cold as ice. There seemed to be a murderous edge to every word she said."Oh? Why do you say that, Madam Dragon? None of my men would ever dare to treat y
Ryan would remember that scene for the rest of his life. One phone call from Belinda had been all it took, and Francis had had to shoot himself. He had been the captain of the state capital Alpha Strike Force special forces team, and the Beckards had put in a lot of effort to train him.However, Belinda talked and laughed with Sebastian as if they were long-lost friends. Just what kind of person had Ryan offended?The more he thought about it, the more afraid he became. He had even forgotten about how painful his broken leg was.Hugh looked at Shawn, who was lying in a pool of blood. He spat out a mouthful of bile. "What should we do, Mr. Jones? What should we do?" Cyril scrambled over to Hugh and knelt on the floor, sobbing."The Beckards and the Northmans almost got me killed!" Hugh pulled himself together and picked up his son, whose leg was broken. He said to Cyril, "If you don't want to die, use your brain!"He strode out of the interrogation room without looking back.
"Grandpa, I—""That's enough. Remember what I say. If you dare provoke the Lucoxes again, you can take full responsibility for it. Don't drag the family down with you!" Clayton cut off Jace's protests and hung up right after that.The handsome man sitting opposite Jace watched as he sat there in a daze, still holding his phone up to his ear. He frowned and asked, "What's the matter, Mr. Beckard? It's not going to affect our plan, is it?"Jace shook his head vigorously, as if he had just woken abruptly from a dream. He looked rather awkward as he laughed and said, "N-Nothing."Although he was acting as if nothing was wrong, he was inwardly worried.Belinda had probably found out about everything! Jace knew very well that Belinda had given Sebastian the two sacred weapons, but he had still laid a trap for Sebastian in secret. It had been a reckless move!Luckily, Belinda hadn't come straight to him. Otherwise, he might not even be able to leave Steinberg alive."Mr. Beckard, why
"Since you've come back to your hometown in glory, you'll need a good car to keep up appearances," Jace said.He added, "I'll also move Brandon back to Steinberg. He'll be managing the affairs of Bashmore Group in Steinberg. He'll introduce a skilled expert to you to be your personal bodyguard. "If anything unexpected happens, he'll be able to protect you. He can deal with anything, from an average thug to a famous assassin." The expert Jace was referring to was Elton.Jace wasn't about to give up on Elton so easily. If he could let Elton stay with Ryder, he could protect the latter's safety while also being able to kill him at any time!As for Brandon, he had also once been classmates with Ryder and Jace. After returning to the country, he started working for Jace, and he was extremely loyal.Jace was planning to leave him in Steinberg to help Ryder, but also as a precaution.Jace and Ryder continued their discussions for a while until Jace finally clapped a few times. Befo
When Whitney heard what Crystal had said, she suddenly stopped and turned back to her, saying, "For my own good?"Don't you know that Sebastian secretly solved every challenge Frostwave Corporation has met over the past few years? Fergus, whom you think so highly of, was just coveting the Sutton family fortune!"Not only that, Mabel was bribed by Fergus to change the medicine that Sebastian left for me. The two of them almost killed me twice."Even the kidnapping that happened a few days ago was related to Fergus. If he hadn't given my phone number to the people who belong to the Killers, would I have been deceived into going to Westfore Street?"Is that how you do things for my good?" Whitney's words seemed to pierce Crystal's heart like a sharp sword. If she hadn't said it herself, Crystal would never have believed, even in her wildest dreams, that Fergus was such a despicable person.She would never have believed that Fergus and Mabel would almost kill Whitney.Whitney was t
"It costs less than 30 million. It can't compare to my love for you, Grandma!" Ryder said, smiling.Everyone took in a sharp breath. If he could afford to give a gift that cost so much, Ryder must really have made his fortune overseas!"Good, good. My grandson is someone who really shows his gratitude and love. Come in and let me look at you properly!"With her left hand now adorned with the bracelet, Edna reached out to take Ryder's hand to walk inside. Ryder smiled and stopped her. "Grandma, wait. Let me introduce you to these esteemed guests!" He turned and pointed at the two young men behind him. "This is Brandon Cullen, the person in charge of the Steinberg branch for Bashmore Group. And this is Jayden Stallone, the heir of the Stallones. He's from the most prestigious family in Sunway."Brandon alone would be enough to astonish Edna. She would never have expected the heir of the Sunway Stallones to come to Sutton Manor. She stood there in shock, unsure of what to say.Th
