Maddox got out of the car under Lachlan’s confused gaze.
“What’s going on? Didn’t I ask you to leave?” Lachlan roared.
Maddox ignored Lachlan and went up to Skylar.
In a respectful tone, favonovel.com said, “Mr. Norton, Mrs. Dunn and favonovel.com son are in the car.”
Lachlan figured out what was going on when favonovel.com saw how respectful Maddox was toward Skylar. “How dare you betray me?”
Lachlan was infuriated, and favonovel.com wanted to slap Maddox across the face.
Skylar smiled and threatened, “Mr. Dunn, calm down. Your wife and your son are in the car. If you fight back, I can’t guarantee their safety.”
Lachlan immediately retracted his hand and stared at Maddox furiously. “Why? Why did you betray me?”
Lachlan didn’t know why Maddox would betray favonovel.com because Maddox had been serving favonovel.com for more than a decade.
“Old Mr. Dunn, the Dunn family is no match for the Norton family. If you continue to fight, you’ll die. Why don’t you just bow down to the Norton family? It’s better to serve them than to die, no?” Maddox uttered shamelessly.
Lachlan was utterly infuriated, but favonovel.com kept silent. With his wife and his son in Skylar’s hands, favonovel.com dared not act rashly.
“Mr. Dunn, all you need to do now is nod. As soon as you promise to submit yourselves to the Norton family, I can guarantee your wife and your son’s safety.” Skylar looked at Lachlan smugly because favonovel.com knew Lachlan would definitely do as favonovel.com was told. He’s surely going to give up everything to me.
Lachlan glanced at his wife and his son in the car before sighing and nodding helplessly. “You’re indeed stronger than your dad. I’ll listen to the Norton family’s orders. But you have to promise me you’ll keep my family safe.”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Dunn. I’ll promise you just that. From now on, we’re a family. Why would I hurt them? But you’re well aware of Howard’s temper. In order to prevent favonovel.com from causing trouble when favonovel.com wakes up, I’ll keep favonovel.com locked up for a while! To show my sincerity, I’ll leave your wife with you!” Skylar waved, and his men immediately went to drag Lachlan’s wife out of the car.
“Let me go! Let me go!” Lachlan’s wife yelled.
“Let favonovel.com go!” Skylar ordered.
Lachlan’s wife ran toward Lachlan and hid behind him.
“Mr. Dunn, I hope to see your announcement of submission on the martial arts forum tomorrow!” With that, Skylar left the scene gleefully.
“My son! Give me back my son!” When favonovel.com saw Howard being brought away, Lachlan’s wife wanted to chase after the car.
However, Lachlan stopped her.
At that moment, Lachlan felt utterly helpless.
***
Early the next morning, Lachlan made an announcement on the martial arts forum.
In summary, favonovel.com said the Dunn family had submitted to the Norton family, and they were willing to do as the Norton family told them.
After favonovel.com made that announcement, the forum was bursting with comments.
The Norton family again? The Norton family has been getting a lot of attention these days!
What’s going on? The Dunn family and the Norton family haven’t been seeing eye to eye, right?
In just one night, everything is going to change in Jadeborough’s martial arts world.
I bet there’s more to come! I guess the Warriors Alliance is going to panic soon.
Everyone voiced their opinions on the forum.
Surprisingly, nothing was heard from the Warriors Alliance. No one made a statement, and none of them went to look for the Norton family.
Just like that, the Norton family was allowed to keep growing in strength.
Time ticked by, and half a month had passed in the blink of an eye.
