Chapter 730 Setting Off on the Bike Ride Part 1
Langston was on the verge of tears and whispered, Young Master Alan, you’ll be my brother-in-law soon, and I’ll be your brother-in-law. Have mercy on me for the sake of this bond. If word gets out that your brother-in-law is infertile, it’ll embarrass you too, won’t it?Alan let out a faint smile. It doesn’t bother me in the slightest. I’ve got no shame to lose over it.Uh… Langston was practically falling apart.Alan was completely unmoved by his pleas!He’d hoped to manipulate Alan using his cousin’s connection, yet Alan hadn’t given him an inch of leeway.Even with flawless behavior, he might still face three to five years of this punishment. Three to five years without intimacy—this was torture.Still, he had no other options. He bowed his head respectfully and swallowed his pride. Brother-in-law, I promise I’ll behave perfectly from now on, you have my word.Alan’s expression turned stern. Watch your words. I am not your brother-in-law.Langston nodded stubbornly to himself. I kn
Chapter 729 The Bet Part 7
The moment Rebecca heard this, she suddenly understood that her elder brother’s words, though harsh and unkind, rang entirely true.If Jess landed the family in serious trouble and dragged the Dewinser Family down with him, she, as a daughter-in-law of the Dewinsers, would inevitably bear the brunt of the blame.Most people showed favoritism. Even though the elderly patriarch and matriarch of the Dewinser Household had always treated her kindly, once blame needed to be placed for Jess’s misdeeds, they would certainly hold her more accountable than her husband for failing to raise their son properly.Should the Dewinser elders grow resentful toward her over this, her standing within the family would suffer immensely.After all, the Mellon Family had lost much of its former power. Her birth family could offer little backing, and her husband held no influential position among the Dewinsers, leaving her with shaky status as it was. If her standing deteriorated further because of her son’s
Chapter 728 The Bet Part 6
After that, he turned to Alan again and choked out, Mr. Alan, can I leave after the New Year? Otherwise, I’ll have to travel all the way back to Neon City for the holiday once I get to Plus City.Alan let out a laugh and asked him, Jess, you’re still hoping to come back for the New Year?Jess looked utterly confused. My sister will be heading back then too. I can’t stay there all by myself, can I?Alan stated firmly, Once you arrive in Plus City, you are restricted to the city’s administrative boundaries only. I’ll have someone fit a tracker around your ankle. If you step outside Plus City at all, I’ll send men to bring you back. I won’t beat or shout at you when you’re caught, but every time you’re recaptured, I’ll add an extra year to your service term. If you run away too many times, you’ll be stuck in Plus City for the rest of your life!Jess flinched and hastily replied, Rest assured, Mr. Alan. Once I arrive, I won’t stray an inch outside Plus City.Then he begged Alan once more,
Chapter 727 The Bet Part 5
Now that Jess was begging her to intercede with Alan, Caroline truly did not know what to do.Seeing this, Rebecca rushed over to Caroline, bursting into tears and dropping to her knees with a wail. Caroline, do your aunt a favor and beg Mr. Alan nicely. If he shows mercy and spares your cousin this once, I’ll kneel before you!Caroline hurried to hold her up, yet Rebecca insisted on sinking to her knees, leaving the two locked in a stalemate.Unable to bear seeing her aunt kowtow to her, Caroline quickly turned to Alan, her face filled with remorse and pleading. Alan, please, for my sake, let my cousin off the hook just this once.Alan hesitated for a moment and said to her, Let’s step aside and talk privately.Caroline nodded hastily and followed him to a quiet spot, staring at him anxiously, terrified that he might be upset with her.Alan looked at her and asked, Back in Plus City, a pair of brothers tried to assassinate you. Was Jess behind that?Caroline waved her hands quickly.
Chapter 726 The Bet Part 4
Even though he seethed with endless resentment toward Alan deep down, he dared not act out against him at this moment. He could only choke back tears and speak to Alan, Mr. Alan, I’m so sorry. I had no right to insult you. I beg for your forgiveness.Alan waved his hand dismissively. It’s nothing serious. I didn’t take your words to heart at all.A wave of relief washed over Jess. He had not expected Alan to be so magnanimous. He quickly clasped his fists in a gesture of gratitude toward Alan. Thank you, Mr. Alan!Alan swept a hand through the air. No need for formal thanks. I’ll let your earlier insults slide, but the bet we made still stands and has to be honored.What?!The moment Jess heard Alan insist on carrying out their wager, his spirits plummeted to rock bottom.He had firmly believed Alan’s folding fan was a counterfeit bought from some vendor, never the authentic treasure from Chairman Omba’s collection.A fake could never fetch a high price, no matter how fine the imitati
Chapter 725 The Bet Part 3
If Langston also grew hostile toward Alan, Alan would be doomed for certain this time!Not only would he force Alan to swallow the fan, he would make him kneel down and call him grandpa too.He pointed straight at Alan and blurted out, Mr. Langston, this is the fool right here!Langston’s attention had been fixed entirely on Caroline just now, surrounded by the fawning Mellon family members, so he had not spotted Alan standing a short distance away at all.He followed Jess’s pointing finger to look at Alan, and instantly got the fright of his life.Alan?! What is he doing here?The thought sent a chill down his spine—Alan had effortlessly crippled a War God and a Realm Lord, and even left four male members of his own family infertile.Yet far more terrifying than Alan’s unfathomable strength was his true identity.Back in the Austin Group conference room, Alan had revealed who he really was: the young master of the Smith Family, son of Neon City’s legendary figure John.On top of that
