Slumdog Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 224

Chapter 224 The New Group

Gerald was lost for words.

Watchmen guarded the underground order. They might have a lot of wealth, but they had suffered a

lot.

Even someone as strong as Gerald was not confident.

For example, in the battle three years ago, if not for a coincidence, he would have died.

“No matter what, you must promise me this,” Derick looked at Gerald and said.

Gerald frowned and said, “Leana has reached the top level at such a young age. If she joined Night

Watch, she would…”

Derick waved his hand and said, “No matter what, you have to promise me this. Otherwise, I’ll have

Blaine tell you.”

Gerald shook his head and smiled, “Blaine is tough. He won’t die. Don’t worry. If there really comes a day when he will have to rise to the occasion, I will strike ahead of him.”

Derick frowned. He looked at Gerald and sighed, “Blaine is very stubborn. He won’t let you do that.”

“If there is nothing else, I will leave first,” Gerald said.

“Young kid, you and Blaine are quite similar. Both of you speak one thing and mean the other.” Derick did not dwell on the matter and just said, “I will let you take Saul and Dax’s place. However, I’m afraid that it will be difficult for you to deal with Dax.”

Dax ranked seventh on the Sun List.

As the traitor of Night Watch and Watchman No. 0, Dax was quite powerful.

Gerald was surprised. “Is Dax also in Washington?”

“Yes, let me tell you this. Blood Lotus is willing to cooperate with Dax because they thought Dax could get what they wanted, which is in Ingrid’s hands. If Dax gets the essence of the Maddox family, Dax’s physical strength will soar,” Derick said.

“So the one who wants to deal with the Maddox family is actually Dax?” Derick frowned.

“To be precise, Dax wants to persuade Harland to cooperate with Blood Lotus.” Derick raised his eyes and said, “In short, our branch in Washington has been looking for traces of the two people.

It’s just that we have not had any clues yet.

“Of course, if they want to attack Ingrid or the Maddox family, they will be exposed sooner or later,” Derick said.

Gerald touched his chin and asked, “But why would they make a move on Ingrid? Why can’t they attack Jett or the other members of the Maddox family? Jett always hangs out.”

Derick smiled, “Dax will only land his hands on Jett and Ingrid as they are the only descendants of the Maddox family. The Maddox family can’t afford to sacrifice them. Jett always stays with a group of playboys. If they make a move on Jett, they might alert other rich families. There are many powerful forces in Washington. Even Blood Lotus or Dark Phantom dare to make a rash move.‘

Gerald was speechless. So it seemed that being a playboy would be advantageous.

Derick muttered, “Alright, they have been waiting for a long time. We should call it a day. Regardless of whether you agree or not, keep my words to your heart. If anything happens to me and Night Watch will fall into your hands in the future, you have to stop Leana from joining Night

Watch.”

Then he touched his nose and said embarrassingly, “Speaking of which, you really don’t want to be with Leana?”

“Let’s go out first,” Gerald hurriedly said.

Derick smiled, then nodded. “By the way, if there is any trouble with those ordinary people in Washington, just come to me. I sort of enjoy high status in Washington, and most families will

respect me.”

Gerald nodded.

They talked for a while and walked out of the banquet hall.
