chapter 485 Ronian and Jerry Work Together
"Which Mr. Jerry?" Ronian was baffled.
"Mr. Jerry Felton from the Felton family. He... He is standing at the door right now. He is still alive!"
The more Ronian listened, the more he frowned.
He sat up and prepared to stand up.
But he was held back by the pain from his arms and thighs. Ronian endured the pain and ordered, "Let him in."
When everyone in the dining room saw Jerry, they were all shocked.
Jennifer was the most excited, and her eyes were filled with tears when she saw Jerry.
"Jerry, is it really you? You are not dead?"
"I was lucky enough to survive," Jerry said with a smile in his eyes.
"Ronian, Konner." Jerry looked at Ronian and Konner.
Konner nodded stiffly.
Ronian had no expression on his face. He was the calmest.
He stirred the soup in the bowl, and a crisp sound was heard when the porcelain spoon hit the porcelain bowl. He asked solemnly, "Since you haven't died, why didn't you send a message to US this year? Do you have your family in your eyes?"
Jerry lowered his head in guilt and said obediently, "I'm sorry. In order to survive, I had to hide this year. I am sorry to let you worry about me."
"Forget it. It's good that you're back Have you had dinner yet?" Ronian felt a lot better.
"No."
Ronian glanced at the servant next to him and said, "Prepare the knife and fork for Mr. Jerry."
"No." Jerry refused.
Jerry's long eyes were exceptionally deep, and he stared at Ronian.
"Roman, I have something to discuss with you. Can we have a talk alone?"
Ronian looked at him and keenly sensed something unusual in Jerry's eyes.
However, Ronian had been exhausted and sore these past two days, and he could not get up at all.
After some deliberation, Ronian looked at Konner and Jennifer, who had bitter faces and no appetite.
"Why do you have those looks? Don't you have an appetite? Go back to your rooms and don't disturb me."
"Yes." Konner and Jennifer stood up in unison and hurriedly left the dining room, not wanting to stay any longer.
Ronian drove the servants and housekeeper away as well.
In just a minute, only Jerry and Ronian were left in the huge dining room.
Jerry bypassed the long dining table and walked to the empty space next to Ronian's dining chair. But he did not sit down and stood beside Roman with respect.
Ronian was very satisfied with Jerry's behavior and softened his tone as he said, "Tell me what has happened."
Jerry had a cold look, and his tone was calm as he slowly narrated his experience.
"A year ago, Ormand brought a cross-country hunting order to arrest me at my wedding with Viola, and he forced Viola to shoot me."
Ronian knocked on the table impatiently and said, "I know about this. I want to know how you escaped from Ormand."
"But Viola didn't bear to shoot me. Her bullet didn't hit my heart, but Ormand didn't know about that and thought I was dead, so he had someone throw me on a nearby mountain. He didn't even bury me. He wanted my body to be eaten by wild wolves and dogs."
Ronian sneered, "It's Ormand's style."
Ronian looked down without any expression on his face.
Jerry continued to say, "Maybe I was lucky and was saved by a hunter on the mountain. Later, my mother was angry and asked to sue Viola in the International Court. Ormand once sent people to the mountain to search for my body. I escaped from Portugal overnight. For the past year, I wandered around in several poor countries and lived under an assumed name. I made a living by being a teacher in the countryside."
Ronian listened quietly. He was very satisfied with Jerry’s experience and sighed with pity.
