Chapter 80 A Disaster to Befall

After hanging up the phone, Gerald put up a sneer.

This was his biggest strategy to prevent Henley and Doreen from getting engaged.

The reason why the Cousy family wanted Doreen and Henley to get married was that they wanted to use Henley's family

business.

There were some problems with the Cousy family's business.

Or rather, the Zumthor family was competing with them. The Cousy family had no choice but to cooperate with the Zumthor family, so marriage was the best solution.

When the Zumthor family was busy with their own industries

and there was a huge problem with the cooperation between

them and the bank, would they still have the mood to hold this engagement banquet? The answer was obviously no.

As for how the Cousy family looked for a way out, it was none

of Gerald's business.

Now that Gerald had done all this, he was only waiting for the Zumthor family to be in a mess overnight. Would they still have the mood to hold the engagement banquet tomorrow?

It would probably be temporarily canceled. After a period of time, the Cousy family would replace that there was a huge

problem with the Zumthor family, then they would not marry Doreen to Henley.

Unfortunately, Gerald could not see Henley's flustered look.

But Gerald was not in a hurry. Since Henley's family had a certain relationship with Blood Lotus, Blood Lotus would not watch the Zumthor family fall. Gerald would definitely participate in places with Blood Lotus. There were a lot of dealings with the Zumthor family.

Gerald touched his nose and a smile appeared on his lips. He now had two most important things. Searching for information about Watchman No. 2 and proving his innocence.

Just as Gerald was about to leave the school, suddenly, a group

of nine people was walking toward Gerald.

Most of them were wearing the uniform of security guards,

while the other was a bald man with glasses. He looked to be in

his forties or fifties.

"Sir, it was this guy who was fighting on the playground just

now," a security guard pointed at Gerald and said.

Gerald was stunned for a moment and cursed in his heart.

Doreen and the others drove away smoothly. Now, Gerald was caught alone.

The principal of the school was no longer the same person. He

looked Gerald up and down and said in a low voice, "Who are you? Why are you coming to our school? Put your hands up, or I will call the police!"

"Sir, I am here to relive my old days. And I am the one who was bullied just now. It has nothing to do with me," Gerald spread

his hands and said.

"Catch him and send him to the constabulary!" The principal

said in a low voice.

The security guards did not say anything and directly pounced

toward Gerald.

Gerald was extremely troubled. He could not do anything to

these people. He sighed and fled the scene.

His speed was so fast that in almost an instant, he passed

through the crowd. The security guards did not even touch his hair. Gerald ran over, turned around, and said, "Principal, the

one who hit me just now is called Armand. You should

investigate him. It is best to capture him and put him in jail for a few days."

After that, Gerald turned and ran away again.

"How can this person run so fast?" The principal looked at Gerald's back and cursed.

The principal heard Armand's name, and his expression

changed. Then he looked at the security guard and said, "Go and check if the school lost anything. Also, don't spread this

matter."

The Cousy family was not someone he could afford to offend.

Gerald ran out of the school gate and stopped at the entrance. Suddenly, he saw a stall next to him and his expression changed slightly.

"This stall is still open?" Gerald was slightly surprised!

This stall was very small. It was a stall selling pancakes. It had been here since Gerald entered high school. At that time, it was

40 cents for one. Gerald would come to buy one every noon. He didn't expect that after nine years, the stall was still here! Because it was already afternoon and the students were in

class, there was no one at the stall!

Gerald walked over, and a middle-aged woman was sitting there playing with her phone.

"How much is one pancake?" Gerald asked.

"40 cents." She did not look up and looked at her phone.

"The same price as nine years ago. Did you not raise the price?" Gerald smiled.

Only then did the middle-aged woman put down her phone. She looked up at Gerald and frowned slightly. She felt that Gerald looked a little familiar, but she could not remember

who he was.

There were too many students buying pancakes from her every

day, let alone people from nine years ago.

"The price must be economical for the students to afford," the middle-aged woman said.

Gerald muttered, "I'll buy one!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a pleasant voice rang out from

the side, "I'll have one pancake, please!"

Because the voice was pleasant, Gerald could not help but look

to the side. When he saw it, he was stunned.

Behind him, a beautiful woman in a black dress was walking

toward him with a book in her hand. When she saw Gerald, she

was stunned and asked, "Is it you?"

In Cherry Garden, Los Angeles, where Irene lived.

At this time, Mary, Irene, and Vivian were lying on the sofa. The three were trembling and their faces were full of cold

sweat. Irene and Vivian's faces were full of fear.

In front of the TV set in the living room, Mike was lying there. He covered his thigh and kept retreating backward. At this time, his body was full of blood! Especially his thigh, blood

flowed like a fountain.

At the same time, in front of them, a middle-aged man

wearing a coat held a dagger in his hand. His face was kind and

calm.

He asked with a smile, "Are you still not willing to say how you

got these two knives?"

When he returned to Irene's home, he asked Mary and the others how they got these two knives.

For the sake of money, Mary wouldn't say that it was from Gerald. She insisted that it was passed down from her ancestors. Then, the middle-aged man suddenly took out a dagger. In the blink of an eye, he stabbed Mike several times. Irene and the other two had their mouths closed. They didn't dare to speak. Just now, when they were screaming, Mike was

stabbed again!

Mary trembled and said, "If you want this knife, just take it. We don't want money."

Between life and money, she finally chose money!

At this time, Mary hated Gerald to death.

She did not expect that after Gerald left, these two knives actually brought disaster to her family.

"You don't seem to understand what I said. Let me tell you again. Do you know who these two knives belong to?" The middle-aged man pulled a stool over and sat down. Then he teased the birds on the ground and asked.

"We... don't know." Irene was trembling.

The middle-aged man smiled. It was fine if he didn't know. He continued to ask, "I will ask you one last time. How did you get these two knives? If you don't say it, he will die!"

Mary gritted her teeth. She hurriedly said, "It was from my

previous son-in-law, Gerald. He was injured three years ago

and was saved by my man. Then, these two knives were hidden by my man. However, he has divorced my daughter. There is no relationship between us."

"Son-in-law!" The middle-aged man got up and picked up the two knives on the coffee table, one long and one short. He said,

"I was wondering why Young Master died in a small place like

Los Angeles. It turns out that Night Watch Watchman No. O is

here."

He smiled and said, "The three of you, come with me!"

He pointed to Irene and the other two. "Oh, by the way, act normal. Go downstairs and get in the car. If you dare to do

anything, you will die. I won't be merciful."

"He really has no contact with us. I don't know where he is now. I can't contact him at all," Mary said with a sad face.

The middle-aged man glanced at her happily. Then he looked at Mike on the ground and said, "Find a way to contact the

owner of these two knives and ask him to come to Sacramento

to replace me. I'll give him three days. If he can't replace me, he can only receive three bodies!"

Irene and the other two turned pale in an instant!

They just wanted to sell those knives, but they never expected

a disaster to befall them!

The middle-aged man picked up the two knives again and looked at Mary and the other two with a smile. "Beautiful

ladies, let's go!"
