Chapter 112
Sylvia started coughing hard, feeling that she was on the brink of death. Slowly, her consciousness began to slip away. Sylvia started smacking Kingsley's arm. “I-I'll apologize...” stuttered Sylvia.
Kingsley loosened his grip, and she slumped to the ground.
Sylvia kept coughing until her eyes became watery. She shot Jennifer a glare and said
"I'm sorry."
Jennifer shook her head and staggered backward in fear.
“Are you satisfied now?” Sylvia asked Jennifer.
Jennifer replied, “I know neither him nor Lord Campbell.”
Sylvia lowered her head as her face darkened. At that very moment, she felt that her pride had been deeply crushed.
Conner finally felt at ease and uttered, “General Felton, thank you for going easy on Sylvia. Would you like to have lunch here?”
Kingsley looked around coldly until his gaze landed on Jennifer. He stared at her for a few seconds before turning around to leave. Just then, his indifferent voice resonated. “The Wilson family of Tayhaven, you all better look out for yourselves. If you offend Lord Campbell again, we won't hesitate to annihilate the whole family.”
What? Everyone's eyes widened in shock.
They gasped in unison, feeling shivers running down their spines.
Nonetheless, they had no idea how they managed to offend Donald.
Following the departure of Kingsley, they finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Sylvia got up on her feet. Her entire body was drenched with sweat. She cast a piercing glance in the direction of Jennifer and asked, “Are those gifts from Horizon Group?”
Shaking her head, Jennifer replied, “No, I
don't know anyone in Horizon Group.”
Again, all of them felt relieved.
It would be an endless disaster if Jennifer knew Horizon Group.
“Are you happy?” Sylvia seemed to have lost her mind and threw the unexpected question at Jennifer. Pausing for a while, Sylvia continued, “I just apologized to you. Does that make you happy?”
Jennifer bit her lip and did not say a word.
Conner sprang up and snapped, “Enough!”
Being the strongest pillar of the Wilson family, Conner still had a say in everything.
Following Conner's roar, everyone dared not to utter a sound. Even Sylvia shut her mouth instantly.
All of a sudden, a burly man in a suit with blood all over his face rushed inside and shouted in terror, “Mr. Wilson, thirty-two snipers and more than sixty secret guards that protected the Wilson manor have been killed. There is also a text written in blood on the wall.” The man then took out a phone and showed Conner the photos he had taken. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
There was indeed a sentence. It read: Lord Campbell doesn't mind making Pollerton Estates the burial ground of the Wilson family.
Conner closed his eyes and stayed silent for a moment before saying, “As expected of Horizon Group. Without anyone noticing, they managed to kill more than one hundred guards of mine.”
Nigel's face also grew terrifyingly solemn.
Delivering the reclamation approval letter, making Sylvia apologize, taking down more than one hundred guards, and leaving the bloody threatening words on the wall... Horizon Group is not only warning the Wilson family but also showing off their power.
“Did you offend Lord Campbell when you were in Pollerton?” Conner asked.
Nigel was in a terrible mood, but still, he replied, “No, we have never met before.” He continued, “But we may have offended him indirectly, for instance, when we were dealing with the Parasite.”
Conner opened his eyes wide. “Yeah! Kingsley warned us not to pull something. It must be because of the fact that you reach out to the Parasite that Lord Campbell is irritated. Horizon Group doesn't know Jennifer, and she is not even qualified enough to know Lord Campbell,” Conner stated.
Feeling powerless, Nigel uttered, “I will try to see the Parasite less. Also, I will reduce the frequency of going to Pollerton during this time.”
Any young man would feel helpless when confronting Lord Campbell.
However, that might not be the case. In actuality, some people dared to compete with Lord Campbell.
