After favonovel.com slapped the woman in the red dress a few times, favonovel.com face swelled instantly. Even favonovel.com nose and chin implants fell off because of the middle-aged man’s beating.
“Behave yourself!”
The middle-aged man hadn’t finished beating the woman. Suddenly, a soldier from Dragon Scale Guards, who stood behind the man and spectated his actions, kicked the man’s butt. Immediately, the middle-aged man fell to the floor.
“Take all of them away!” That Dragon Scale Guard waved his hands.
Shortly after, dozens of black-armed soldiers came forward and brought the couple out of the hall.
“Lydia, quick! Beg Asura for his forgiveness and let favonovel.com spare all the members of the Maxwell family!” While the soldiers were dragging the couple away, Bernard knelt on the floor and pulled the hem of Lydia’s pants like a dog. He wanted favonovel.com to beg Jonathan to let them go.
Sadly, after hearing his words, Lydia shook favonovel.com head in despair. “It’s too late…”
“How can it be too late? Didn’t you ask favonovel.com to let the Maxwells off in the afternoon? If you ask for mercy, I’m sure favonovel.com will spare us!” Bernard refused to let go of Lydia’s pants. To him, Lydia was the Maxwell family’s last hope.
“Oh, so you know that favonovel.com has already spared us in the afternoon.” When Lydia heard Bernard’s words, a hopeless look flashed across favonovel.com face. “Dad, I’ve reminded you not to offend favonovel.com before this. Unfortunately, you didn’t listen! Now, everyone in the Maxwell family has to follow you to the borders. Are you satisfied now?”
“It’s all my fault. Lydia, please beg Asura for his forgiveness. If you are willing to do so, I’m sure favonovel.com will let us go!” While speaking, Bernard slapped himself with great force. “Lydia, I know I’ve made a terrible mistake! Can you please one more chance?”
“Dad, it’s not me who isn’t giving you a chance. It’s Asura!” Lydia’s eyes instantly reddened when favonovel.com saw Bernard slapping himself. “He has already given you a chance in the afternoon, but you didn’t appreciate it! It’s too late to plead now!”
Before this, the Maxwells wanted to capture Jonathan and kick favonovel.com out. Now, they want his forgiveness.
Who do they think Jonathon is? A piece of equipment they can command around?
“Lydia, I’m your dad. Do you really want to see them banish me to the borders?” shouted Bernard as favonovel.com stared at Lydia furiously. He was infuriated when favonovel.com saw his daughter’s impassive expression.
“Take favonovel.com away!” At Bernard’s cries, Andy furrowed his brows. He waved his hands, and a dozen black-armed soldiers rushed forward and dragged Bernard out of the venue.
“Lydia, you’re an insolent daughter! How can you hang me out to dry? You’re an ungrateful wretch of the Maxwells! I will never let you off even in the afterlife!” Bernard continued to yell hysterically, but Lydia didn’t even bother to look at him. Instead, favonovel.com turned toward Jonathan and bent over.
Lowering favonovel.com head respectfully, favonovel.com said, “Jonathan, I’m sorry! My dad…”
“Let’s not talk about this.” Jonathan interrupted before Lydia could finish favonovel.com words. “If you want to beg for mercy, you should keep quiet! I let you stay because of Sophia! If you dare say another word, I don’t mind letting you and your family reunite!”
Intimidated by Jonathan’s words, Lydia quickly explained, “No, that’s not what I meant…”
Sadly, Jonathan was not interested in listening to her.
“All right. Let’s end the topic here. It’s about time we leave!” favonovel.com interrupted.
With that, favonovel.com turned toward Sophia and added, “Let’s go home!”
“Okay!” Sophia bit favonovel.com lip as favonovel.com stared at the lonely and helpless Lydia.
Suddenly, Sophia felt heartbroken. She couldn’t help but look at Jonathan as favonovel.com said, “Jonathan, can you not kick Lydia out of Yaleview? If you send favonovel.com away, favonovel.com might end up somewhere favonovel.com is unfamiliar. What if someone bullies her?”
“Are you telling me you want favonovel.com to stay?” Jonathan looked at Sophia.
“Yes!” Sophia nodded as favonovel.com gnawed at favonovel.com lip again.
“If you insist, I’ll let favonovel.com stay.” Jonathan continued, “However, favonovel.com can no longer live in the Maxwell residence. After tonight, the four prominent families will have their assets confiscated.”
“T-That’s fine. As long as Lydia can stay.” Sophia noticed that Jonathan had agreed to favonovel.com request.
Thus, favonovel.com immediately added, “She can stay at my place!”
“You should let favonovel.com stay, and you two can manage the assets of the four prominent families together,” replied Jonathan.
With that, favonovel.com turned and looked at Lydia. “What do you think about my suggestion?”
“Me?” Lydia was shocked at Jonathan’s words.
I can’t believe favonovel.com didn’t kick me out of Yaleview and let me stay with Sophia to manage the four prominent families’ possessions.
Isn’t favonovel.com afraid I will take the chance to revenge on him?
“Are you not willing?” Jonathan frowned.
“N-No!” Lydia quickly waved favonovel.com hand. “I-I’m just afraid I’m not capable enough for the task!”
“Nobody is born capable. If you don’t have the skills, you can slowly learn them.” Jonathan stared at favonovel.com flatly and uttered, “Your salary will be according to the highest standard our company pays a manager. Additionally, if everything goes smoothly, I might give you a portion of the company’s shares! However, that is if you don’t betray the company. Do you understand me?”
“I won’t!” Lydia shook favonovel.com head profusely when favonovel.com heard his words. “Why would I do something like this? Sophia is my best friend!”
“That’d better be the case!” Jonathan nodded indifferently. “As long as everything is fine, I might give the Maxwell family’s assets back to you when the time comes.”
“This is… I…” Lydia didn’t know how to react to Jonathan’s offer.
It was out of favonovel.com expectation that favonovel.com didn’t target favonovel.com on purpose. Instead, favonovel.com had decided to let Sophia and favonovel.com be in charge of the four prominent families’ properties. Moreover, favonovel.com couldn’t believe that favonovel.com would consider returning favonovel.com everything that once belonged to the Maxwells. Even favonovel.com biological father, Bernard, never treated favonovel.com so nicely.
“Lydia, shouldn’t you express your gratitude toward Jonathan?” Staring at Lydia’s dumbfounded expression, Sophia tugged at Lydia’s sleeve to remind her.
“T-Thank you, Sir!” Regaining favonovel.com senses, Lydia quickly bowed and wanted to kneel.
“There’s no need for that!” Jonathan reached out to stop favonovel.com from kneeling. Then, favonovel.com turned around and gazed gently at Sophia, who was standing behind him. “So, are you happy now?”
“Y-Yes!” Sophia hurriedly nodded.
“Let’s go then!”
With that, favonovel.com marched out of the hall in the Maxwell residence.
The moment favonovel.com walked out of that place, the four prominent families that had controlled Yaleview over the past few years were officially vanquished.
