“Huh, who wants to ruin a gold card. I have to get out of here immediately,” he thought.

However, the Goddess of Fortune is not on the side of this blonde-haired man. Josephine caught him and drew the attention of the others.

“Adrian, where are you going?” Josephine called, and almost shouting.

Inevitably, the others turned their heads towards him, and the one who was called stopped.

“Where are you going Adrian?” Josephine repeated. Adrian just stared awkwardly in front of Josephine. He looked left and right, as if looking for an object to discuss with Josephine.

He woke up late, and there was no shouting for him at all. “Good morning Jo, Nicko. Let’s have breakfast together,” Daisy said, which surprised her two daughters. But not with Nico. He knew that this woman was doing this on purpose because she wanted something from him. Nicko also pretended to check the various dishes that were there. He wanted to know, let alone how Daisy and Edmund would react. “Why Nicko, is the breakfast you want not available on the table? If not, I can order a new menu,” Daisy offered with artificial friendliness, and certainly aroused Josephine’s suspicion. Josephine whispered to her husband, sitting next to her.

    "So this is your doing?" asked Nicko angrily. This time her face was red and her eyes were staring intently ahead."Ha ha ha why? Does this sound painful to you? It's good that this sounds painful to you. At least this way you will know who you are dealing with, and you can think again about betraying my daughter!”Watson, you! Nicko rage. This time he was really angry that he couldn't say anything else. His hands began to clench tightly and cursed at the man who called him. No one ever thought that Robert Watson, Camilla's father, was involved in kidnapping his wife and child now.“You bastard Watson, what do you want! I warned you that I would never betray your daughter. It was just a silly game in childhood!” Nick replied.“Silly childhood game you say? It's a shame that until now my daughter still expects you and I still think of you as my son-in-law. I rejected several men including Matthew Young who is now completely independent for you but instead you maintain your stupid marri

Don't you already know that you and I are no longer related?" Josephine replied curtly.Gerald immediately crouched down and leveled his position with Josephine. This time he gently touched Josephine's cheek and disgusted her former lover.Josephine seemed to push away Gerald's hand which kept trying to touch her. The more Josephine dodged the more he liked to tease her.“Your skin is still smooth and soft, only now you are a little different. You seem a bit stocky. Is it possible that you're already pregnant with that jerk's child?” asked Gerald as he whispered in Josephine's ear and started licking it.Josephine shuddered in horror, she almost admitted that she was now pregnant.

In the past, he underestimated the Watson family because they had an economy class below him.Especially with Nicko, he had never taken the young man into account at all. Precisely thinks Nicko is like a pest that must be eradicated immediately. But now he is the pest. Even Chuck who became his ally also blamed him.“Chuck, you don't think about me anymore? Don't you remember our previous good relationship?" asked Master Young in a voice that sounded quivering with sorrow.Chuck shook his head and said again, “Didn't you hear what my uncle said earlier? We Watsons absolutely do not welcome a liar. Now you better get out of here!”"Chuck you,—" Andrew no longer continued his words.

At that time he had seen the ravaged state. Everything was full of trash and no one was there.He walked unsteadily, but suddenly a waiter came to chase him, "Sorry Mr. Young, this is the bill for tonight's event!"It was then that Andrew Young immediately patted his forehead and muttered that he had almost forgotten the bill he had to pay off. When renting this place, he only paid half of the total banking services ordered by him.Currently, he can still breathe a sigh of relief because, in his account balance, there is still money remaining for the cost of paying off this event.

What's more, they actually restrained him and made him no longer able to move and bait the people who were now hunting him.In fact, now that he's really stuck, no one can help him. Wanted to scream and ask Matthew for help but now the young man is not with him anymore. Then, Mr Watson, he should be a man he can rely on. While Chuck is actually an ally of his. But their positions were too far away and it was impossible for her to scream.Even if he had shouted for their help, before Chuck had come here he would have been battered and bruised.Now all he could do was bully his former bodyguard again into protecting him. The bodyguards he had dismissed were a bunch of chubby bums. By giving them even a glimmer of hope, they would definitely move to protect him, no matter how difficult the obstacles he had to face.“Hey you guys, quickly save me! Do your duty as a bodyguard.

    Andrew Young smiled and shook his head, “Of course not sir. That price is a very commensurate price for what you get.”“Humph, you must want to rob us by paying such a large fee! I don't want to buy!” exclaimed one of the visitors.Andrew Young smiled sarcastically and said, “I have no intention of robbing you. I set a fair price as you can see at Mr. Watson's birthday party, and also the changes in me. You all have even touched me and felt the difference. So I think 2.5 billion is really worth it.”The visitors who surrounded him also spoke like a buzzing beetle. After that, he spoke again by giving an explanation of everything. “Don't all of you know that in our youth we spend a lot of time working hard, thinking about many things even makes us forget to eat and lack sleep.
