Chapter 769 A Trouble of the Manning Family

When they arrived downstairs, Ciara jumped over. She was no longer angry and said to Gerald with a smile, "Gerald, they are my classmates. Can they take a picture with you?"

Gerald looked over and found that it was a few young girls. Unlike the previous people, they were shyer and more excited.

"Can, can I?" A little girl said with a red face.

"No problem." Gerald smiled and stood up. "Who will be the first one?"

A girl ran over and said, "I will!"

After that, she asked with some embarrassment, "Can I hold your arm?"

Gerald extended her arm to her. She looked happy and held Gerald's arm. Then, she tiptoed and made a peace sign.

The other girls were envious.

Beside Gerald, Valery smiled. It could be seen that these girls liked Gerald very much.

Ever since the Elite Ghosts invaded, the media had been reporting about Night Watch. These little girls had their new heroes. Everyone in Team 11762 became well-known and Gerald became a national hero.

However, Gerald did not like the feeling of being a celebrity that much.

Being low-key was something that was engraved in the minds of Watchmen.

Gerald fulfilled the requirements of these girls. After taking photos, Julien said, "That's enough. We have to eat out."

Ciara looked at her classmates proudly and said, "You go home then. I will go eat with them."

The girls looked at Ciara with envy. It seemed that because Ciara would eat with Gerald, they were jealous.

They looked at Gerald reluctantly and left.

Gerald and the other three got into the car. This time, Colten drove the car. They found a quiet restaurant.

Colten said, "Dishes in small restaurants here are authentic."

Valery nodded. "Where is my aunt?"

"She went back to her mother's home," Julien said. "She'll come back tomorrow."

As they ate, Julien asked about Gerald. Most of the questions were about Gerald's marriage, and they talked about Valery's childhood.

The meal was peaceful. Julien was quite satisfied with Gerald.

After dinner, it was around ten o'clock. Gerald and the others drove back home. Just as they arrived at the door, Gerald's eyebrows twitched. He looked at the door and frowned.

Colten said angrily, "These guys are here again."

Valery frowned and said, "Who are you talking about?"

"A local developer who wants to take our house," Colten said. "The piece of land near our old residence is ours. They wanted the area behind us, but they felt that it would be better to include our land, so they came to talk to us.

"This is our heirloom, so we can't give it to them. The price they offered is ridiculously low, so we refused," Colten said with displeasure. "But after these bastards saw that we refused, they harassed us from time to time, and even the police were involved. It has been six months."

Julien frowned and said, "Why are you telling them these things?"

"They even went to my school to stop me from entering. At this time, Ciara added.

Valery's expression changed. She looked at Julien and asked, "Uncle, why didn't you tell me about this?"

"This..." Julien said awkwardly. "You have been fighting hard recently. You must be busy, so I didn't tell you. And in the past two months, because of the invasion of the Elite Ghosts, they behaved themselves." Before the invasion of the Elite Ghosts, everyone was in a panic, and no one had the mood to do these things.

But after the Night Watch announced that the future would be peaceful, these people began to cause trouble again.

Gerald narrowed his eyes and looked ahead,

At this time, the dozen or so people seemed to recognize their car. They took the initiative to approach and surrounded the car.

Beep beep."

Colten was angry. He pressed the horn twice..

In front of him, the middle-aged man with a bald head was not afraid. He walked to the front of the car and stepped on its engine hood. He said, "Long time no see, Dr. Manning. Regarding this contract, I think you should sign it."

As he spoke, the baseball bat in his hand tapped on the hood and he said, "This way, everyone will have an easier time, right?"

"Call the police," at this time, Julien said.

Gerald smiled and said, "Calling the police can't solve this problem once and for all. They don't attack, so they will be detained for a while and will continue to cause trouble when released. I will solve it." Gerald sat in the front passenger seat. He opened the door and got out of the car.

"Yo, how dare you get out of the car?" The bald man smiled and said, "Have you thought it through? Good choice. This way, everyone can have a good time. If the contract is signed, you can get a sum of money, and we can explain it to our superior."

"What's the name of your company?" Gerald asked indifferently.

"Huh?" The bald man was stunned. He looked at Gerald. At this time, Gerald walked to an illuminated place.

At the same time, Colten got out of the driver's seat.

Seeing him get out, Gerald did not say anything.

In front of him, the dozen or so people shivered when they saw Gerald.

"Gerald." The baldy said in shock, "How could you, how could..."

Colten sneered and said, "You didn't expect this, right? Gerald is my brother-in-law! You are finished."

Baldy was frightened. What kind of person was Gerald?

The second time the Elite Ghosts invaded, he killed tens of thousands of them alone, and the scene of him freezing them scared everyone.

The bald man even felt that he might become a block of ice in the next second.

"L.." He couldn't even speak properly. He didn't expect this clinic to be related to Gerald.

Colten was furious. He walked forward and ruthlessly hit the baldy. He said, "Weren't you quite aggressive before? Go ahead. Give me the contract. I'll sign it."

Inside the car, when Valery saw Colten's action, she couldn't help but smile.

"I was paid to do this." Baldy could only bite the bullet and say.

The people he brought over also had faces full of fear.

"I'm asking you a question. Who do you work for?" Gerald asked again, and his tone became colder.

"It is Luminescence Group. The bald man gritted his teeth and told Gerald the mastermind.

Gerald nodded and said, "I got it. You guys go and turn yourselves in. Stay in prison for a while.

"Ah!" The baldy was stunned.

"You are not going?" Gerald raised his eyebrows and looked at them. "Don't think about this. If I know that you don't turn yourselves in tomorrow, the consequences will be worse." The bald man smiled bitterly. "We'll turn ourselves in immediately."

Beside him, Colten looked at Gerald with envy. This was the demeanor of an expert. He didn't need to attack and could make the enemies voluntarily surrender by just showing up. "Do you know where the owner of Luminescence Group lives?" Gerald turned to look at Colten and asked.

"Huh?" Colten was at a loss.

"Since we want to solve this problem once and for all, we have to replace its source. Let's go replace that person."

Gerald smiled at hirl
