Dauntless God Of War novel Chapter 56

Seeing how Mandy was about to recklessly ask Harold for money, Brittany stopped her.

“Well... What should I do, then? Just let myself be lied to by this blasted idiot?” Mandy spurted angrily.

“Mom, of course, we can't let things be as they are,” Brittany assured her mother. She then gave Gordon a fierce look and said to him, “Gordon, you know people who do shady work, don't you? All this while you'd wasted money hanging out with them. Well, it's now time for you to be useful. Go and take care of this!”

“Brittany, so long as you are no longer fantasizing over that loser, I am more than happy to do so. I just need to make one phone call for him to return the five thousand he cheated off mom and to make him pay for how he humiliated our family that day.”

Gordon made a call to his friends the moment he was done talking.

Back at the café, after Harold saw that Mandy had left, he left a puzzled-looking James behind and returned to the private room.

When the voluptuous Carolyn saw Harold return, both she and Logan stood up.

Puzzled, she asked, “Harold, you could've let Logan handle such a small matter. Why would you trouble yourself with this?”

“That was my ex-girlfriend's mother. It would be more appropriate for me to handle that myself! Please, have a seat!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Harold sat down and took his time brewing a pot of Earl Grey tea.

The entire brewing process took a few minutes. When the tea was ready, Harold poured both Logan and Carolyn a cup of tea each.

“Mr. Campbell, please, allow me!”

Logan's face was frozen with apprehension as he received the cup of tea Harold had poured for him.

“Allow you to do this? And what, ruin such fine tea?”

Harold's words caused Carolyn to smile.

As for Logan, those very words left him distressed.

Whenever it came to tea, Harold insisted on brewing it himself. He insisted that his subordinates did not appreciate tea, and he did not want them to ruin the good tea.

Harold gently took a sip of his tea, closed his eyes in enjoyment, then questioned Carolyn, who sat beside him, “Carolyn, didn't you mention that there were important matters to report? Are you using that as an excuse to mooch a few cups of tea off me?”

“Of course not. While the tea you brew is delicious, I still prefer alcoholic beverages. I do have important matters to report. Two years ago, I found a mysterious organization that had appeared overseas. They were going about gathering information on you and The Four. After a while, they suddenly went silent for some time. It seems that they had begun moving again recently. I believe they might be plotting against you, Mr. Campbell. Just in case, should I assign a few underlings to your side for protection?”

As soon as work-related matters were brought up, Carolyn stood to her feet. Her demeanor was very solemn, and her eyes were fraught with worry as she looked toward Harold.

“Hmph! Are those bandits still at it? If they dare come here and think they can just leave, they won't have it as easy as they did six years ago.”

Suddenly, Harold's body emitted a strong aura that was almost tangible.

Not only did the pressure cause both Logan and Carolyn's hair to fly backward, but it also broke the high-end coffee table before them into pieces.

The color drained away from their faces, but it didn't take long before they rejoiced.

“Mr. Campbell, your injuries are healed?” Carolyn asked gleefully as soon as Harold rescinded his pressure.

Harold nodded.

His simple nod led Carolyn to breathe a sigh of relief.

Back then, had Harold not been injured, they would not have signed The Five-Year Agreement with the other major powers. Instead, they would've repressed their opponents by force.
