Chapter 724: Chapter 724: A Woman’s Jealousy_1
“Who is this…”
Upon hearing the man’s words, the faces of the Ridge Family darkened in an instant.
Being openly insulted, anyone would find it hard to accept.
“My father, Sheldon Casey. Mother, Kathleen,” Moon Casey introduced very simply.
After speaking, she didn’t even bother to let Quandarius Ridge introduce the Ridge Family.
“So you are the in-laws!”
Immanuel Ridge hurried over with a smile on her face, “I am Anna Harris’s mother, I am called…”
“I know.”
Sheldon Casey rudely interrupted.
He completely ignored Immanuel Ridge’s extended hand…
“Anna Harris, introduce the mbers of our family…”
Immanuel Ridge said with an embarrassed smile.
“No need!”
Sheldon Casey said coldly and turned to Moon Casey, “Let’s go upstairs. It’s windy in Harbor City, and your mother might catch a cold easily.”
“Sure!”
Moon Casey approached Quandarius Ridge and said with a smile, “Have your family lead the way; my parents are tired from the journey and need to rest.”
“Sure!”
Anna Harris nodded her head like a woodpecker, “Mom, hurry up and call the waiter to serve the dishes!”
After finishing, she approached Sheldon Casey, “Uncle, please follow .”
“Hmm.”
Sheldon Casey showed a rare smile, holding Kathleen’s hand as they walked step by step upstairs.
“Ouch!”
As they were walking, Kathleen suddenly missed a step and fell to the ground.
“Mom, are you okay?”
Moon Casey quickly went over to help Kathleen up.
“I’m fine, just feel a bit sore in my ankle.”
Kathleen frowned slightly, noticing a squashed firecracker underfoot.
Clearly,
this was the culprit that caused her to slip.
Moon Casey also noticed this.
He bent down and picked up the firecracker in his hand.
“What’s going on? Why is there a firecracker on the ground?”
“My mom and the others wanted to organize a welco ceremony for you all, but there was a mix-up and it went off ahead of ti…”
Anna Harris dared not hide anything and could only answer truthfully.
“Idiotic!”
Moon Casey closed his eyes and took a deep breath,
then crushed the firecracker in his hand.
“Son-in-law, what’s wrong?”
Seeing Moon Casey’s family stop, Immanuel Ridge hurried over to ask.
“Get lost!”
Moon Casey opened his eyes and almost ground out the words from between his teeth.
How dare they let his mother get hurt?
“Son-in-law, what did you say?”
Immanuel Ridge doubted she heard correctly.
The gentle and refined son-in-law, how could he possibly speak to her like that?
“In the future, cut out these nonsensical antics!”
With a release of his hand, the firecracker was reduced to powder.
“It’s okay, I’m fine,”
Kathleen shook her hand, “Lead the way ahead.”
Immanuel Ridge wisely held her tongue and walked ahead quietly.
anwhile, the Ridge Family mbers were still discussing among themselves.
“Look at that grandeur; that’s the presence of rich people! Later we should ask Anna Harris to lend us so money.”
“Right! With their billions in assets, they won’t miss this little bit of our money.”
“And let them find Forrest Ridge a respectable job.”
At this mont, the Ridge Family mbers were all excited and high-spirited,
all scheming on how to profit from the Casey Family.
“Look how smug Immanuel Ridge is!”
Knox Ridge grumbled from behind.
The more she looked at Moon Casey, the more likable she found him, dreaming in her heart to have such a son-in-law.
“Just be content with what you have; don’t always look at others,” Quella Radcliffe said helplessly, “Your son-in-law, he’s not bad at all.”
“Hmph,” Knox Ridge sneered, “He’s not bad, but we can’t even lend money to relatives without worrying, just in case…”
Saying this, she rembered the scene of Cooper Ridge being killed, and the words in her mouth were swallowed back.
“Beyond help.”
After Quella Radcliffe said these four words, she approached Julius Reed, “Just now, with that old man…”
“There were many people, so I gave your Ridge Family face,”
Julius Reed said indifferently, “Otherwise, I would have killed him on the spot.”
Quella Radcliffe voiced her doubts, “Really? That Moon Casey doesn’t seem like a good person, be careful around her.”
When the old man made his move, it shocked everyone.
So formidable!
When Julius Reed acted, Quella Radcliffe was still a bit worried.
Fortunately.
Nothing happened.
“Brother Davenport…”
Just then, Brexton Jackson ran over, hesitating to speak as he looked at Julius Reed.
“Thank for coming.”
Julius Reed smiled and turned to Quella Radcliffe, “You go on up first, I’ll follow shortly.”
“Okay.”
Quella Radcliffe glanced at Brexton Jackson.
Although curious how her husband knew him, she refrained from asking further questions.
There was no need to complicate matters that her man could handle himself.
“Brother Davenport, thank you for saving just now.”
Brexton Jackson’s face was bitter.
If it weren’t for Julius Reed’s intervention, he would most likely be lying in a hospital right now.
“Do you know why I waited until the last mont to act?”
Without waiting for Brexton Jackson to respond, Julius Reed mused to himself, “You act too recklessly. Consider this a lesson.”
“I understand.”
Brexton Jackson hung his head, his face filled with bitterness.
“Get information on this Casey family’s background, ASAP,” Julius Reed instructed before waving his hand dismissively, “Go on.”
“Understood.”
Brexton Jackson turned around and imdiately began to investigate Moon Casey’s identity.
anwhile, Julius Reed suddenly turned around and swiftly ran towards the small alley on the periter of The Star of the Prosperous Age hotel.
“So blockhead is coming to cause you trouble.”
Nelson stood in a place out of sight of others, smiling as he said, “Dragon King, want to take care of him for you?”
Today, she had swapped her sportswear for an urban office lady’s attire.
Anyone unaware would think she was so big boss’s secretary.
The suit perfectly outlined Nelson’s fiery figure.
Curves in all the right places.
“Who?”
Julius Reed felt a headache coming on just at the sight of Nelson.
But, unfortunately—
he still couldn’t chase this woman away.
“The brother of that little girl you flirted with last ti in Baron Grey,” Nelson ntioned with amusent. “He has good moves; I think you’re in for so trouble.”
“Nelson, watch your language. What do you an ‘flirted’?”
Julius Reed was quite helpless.
He had clearly handed that woman a beating.
How could that be called flirting?
“I don’t care!” Nelson huffed lightly, “You’re going to be my husband, if another vixen shows up, I’ll definitely kill her.”
“My ancestor, the holy woman!”
Julius Reed said helplessly, “Isn’t Azure Mountain nice? Why do you have to co here and cling to ?”
“To get married.”
Nelson was just about to cling to Julius Reed, which startled him into imdiately dodging.
“n and won aren’t supposed to touch each other.”
“Bullshit! Then what were you trying to imply by knocking down at the martial trials for marriage on my ho ground?”
Nelson seed to realize she was getting a bit aggressive and quickly coughed, switching to a softer tone, “Dragon King, you shouldn’t be so heartless…”
“I have other things to do…” No sooner had Julius Reed turned to leave, than a longsword appeared at his throat, “Co back to Azure Mountain with .”
“I bet you don’t have the guts to kill .”
Julius Reed challenged with a defiant expression.
“Dragon King, want to bet?”
Nelson asked, raising an eyebrow.
“What’s the wager?” Julius Reed felt that things were getting a bit complicated.
“Within half a minute, I’ll have Quella Radcliffe’s head off her shoulders,” Nelson stated before instantly vanishing from the spot.
Ps: It’s four in the morning now.
Still struggling with insomnia.
Laid down after midnight, yet haven’t fallen asleep.
Only four hours of sleep in the past 48 hours.
Tossing and turning, just can’t fall asleep.
I’m not even sure why.
Everyone, try not to stay up late.
Cherish your health.
Good morning.
