“Indeed, he should be my successor. I will visit Apren City and talk to him personally. After all, he is the
leader of Dragon Temple, so it would be inappropriate for Terrance to meet him directly.” Sebastian
seemed excited. At this moment, Terrance’s cell phone rang. “Everyone, there is news from the Police
Department in Apren City. Max Kennedy has ordered them not to intervene in this matter. The Kennedy
family plans to attack Joseph tonight…” It seemed that the Kennedy family was seeking death. Joseph
initially gave them three days to prepare themselves, yet why were they rushing to retaliate? Even the
top leaders in Frogua were extremely fearful of Dragon Temple’s strength. How would the Kennedy
family be able to defeat them? The Kennedy family was truly a bunch of ignorant idiots. Otherwise, they
would not have caused such huge trouble in the first place. Sebastian could not help but sneer,
“Kennedy family from Apren City? Did they think that they were rulers of the territory? If they dare hurt
my kin, I will teach them a lesson tonight.” “How can you be so thick-skinned, Sebastian? Joseph is an
heir to the Dawson family. Since when has he become your kin?” Ryan retorted. Sebastian replied
indifferently, “Charles and I are like brothers, so I naturally treat his grandson as my kin.” “Should we
inform Charles about this matter?” “Not for the time being.” Matt added, “Joseph has suffered too much
in the past few years. This time, he will definitely come to the Dawson family to seek justice.” Hanson
agreed with Matt. Taking off the black ring with a dragon carving, Ryan handed it to Sebastian. “Give
this to that little girl. By the way, help me pass a message to Joseph. Tell him if he comes to Frogua, he
should visit my place.” Sebastian looked at Matt with some surprise. “Have you thought this through?
You’ve worn this ring for almost all your life, haven’t you? Do you really want to give it away?” A flash of
regret flashed across Matt’s eyes. Then, he finally smiled and responded, “In the end, it’s just a ring.
Joseph has done so much for our country. This is what we owe him…” Although Matt sounded rather
casual, Sebastian took the matter very seriously. In fact, everyone present in the room knew very well
that this ring was extraordinary. There was a hidden story behind this ring. After taking a deep breath,
Sebastian said, “I will be heading toward Apren City now. Don’t worry, I will never disappoint the young
heroes who have contributed so much to Frogua’s peace and success.” At the time, no one knew that
Sebastian planned to murder the wealthiest man in Apren City The rain kept falling, which affected
many surrounding areas. In Oplen City. In a hotel located in the city center, Alpha 1 left after making
arrangements for Paige and Chloe. After waking up at noon, Chloe silently ran to the door and
squatted. Her eyes were full of expectation. Every time someone passed by, she would stare at them.
If it weren’t for Joseph, she would seem even more depressed. Paige could not convince her to stop
squatting at the door because she knew who her daughter was waiting for. Deep down, Paige knew
that the possibility of Joseph returning was rather low. After all, whether it was the three hundred men
from the night before or the Kennedy family, it was unlikely that Joseph would be able to handle the
situation. The heavier the rain, the colder the surrounding air became. “Chloe, didn’t Toby tell you
already? Even if your father were to return, it would take him at least two days.” Paige continued, “Be
good and come back inside. If you catch a cold, your father will feel distressed by the time he comes
home.” “Mom, what if Dad comes back early?” Chloe shook her head stubbornly. “I am waiting for him
here. As soon as he comes back, he will see me right away.”. Chloe’s eyes sparkled. She truly believed
that her father would return that day. Paige’s eyes suddenly welled up, and she tried hard not to let her
tears fall. “Chloe, you have to believe in me and Toby.” “Mom, Dad will surely return today.” Raising her
head, Chloe said in a serious tone, “I have good instincts. Last night, the moment I sensed that Dad
would return, he appeared right in front of me. He even helped get rid of the bad guys… He will
definitely come back.” Looking at her daughter, Paige could not convince her at all.
“I believe in you…” Inexplicably, Paige felt more and more uncomfortable deep down. It was
remarkable how a five-year-old child could be so sensible. In the past, Chloe had learned to hide her
love for her father. However, she was no longer concealing her emotions at this time. It was because
she desperately longed for Joseph to stay here. “Joseph, you must come back alive.” Gnashing her
teeth, Paige endured her sorrow and prayed again and again in her heart. Paige figured that she could
no longer sit still and wait for news. Thinking of this, Paige sent a message to Bethany. “Beth, you must
help me. I can’t raise Chloe without her father…” At Parry family’s villa located in Apren City. Bethany,
who wore a long white dress, noticed the message sent by Paige. At eight o’clock in the morning,
Logan had returned to Apren City. Thus, Beth immediately told him about what happened. She hoped Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
that he could help Joseph. However, Logan did not immediately make a decision. Instead, he asked
Bethany to leave the room for the time being. Although Logan and Brandon were on bad terms, he had
other worries as well. After all, this matter had blown up too much. Thinking of what Chloe had been
through, Bethany replied to Paige’s message . despite the uncertainty. “Don’t worry. I will definitely ask
for my father’s help.” Taking a deep breath, Bethany planned to convince her father once again. Logan
was the second richest man in Apren City. He had strong support from the Parry family. At the time,
Logan was the only person who could compete equally against Brandon in Apren City. Of course, in
terms of overall strength, the Parry family was slightly weaker. However, in the eyes of the citizens of
Apren City, the difference between the two was almost negligible. In the past few years, Logan rapidly
expanded his family business to catch up to the Kennedy family’s riches. In fact, their operations was
already expanded beyond Apren City. In the study room.” Logan was deep in thought. His beloved
daughter wanting him to intervene in this matter was equivalent to opposing the Kennedy family. At the
moment, he was rather hesitant to do so. He was a smart man. In fact, he knew that regardless of
whether he intervened in this matter or not, there would be friction between him and Brandon sooner or
later. Since the two could not co-exist in one place, Brandon and Logan would definitely face conflict
sometime in the future anyway. This event would only bring forward this inevitable battle. Nonetheless,
Logan had his own concerns. This was a perfect opportunity to verify Kennedy family’s background and
true strengths. In fact, Bethany did not know that Logan had already made his decision before returning
home. Initially, Logan planned to peacefully discuss with Brandon. However, he did not expect that
Joseph, who appeared all of a sudden, would take action against Jaylah. Jaylah was Brandon’s only
son and the future heir of the Kennedy family. Logan knew better than anyone that Jaylah was a
complete fool. If Jaylah were to inherit the Kennedy family’s assets and legacy, Logan would be
delighted However, because of Jaylah’s involvement in this matter, it became extremely tricky to
handle. Logan received news about the Kennedy family’s plans. That night, the Kennedy family no
longer had scruples and intended to go all out. From Logan’s point of view, he could not compete with
the Kennedy family on this matter. If he were to intervene, he would have to stake his own family’s
future. This was not worthwhile, nor was it rational. Although he loved his daughter, it was obviously not
worth taking such huge risks for the husband of his daughter’s best friend.
