Chapter 254 None of Them Can Escape!
After the others left, Gerald looked at Ingrid, Daphne, and Jessica.
“Thank you, Gerald!” Jessica smiled bitterly and said, “If it were not for you, I am afraid that I would not be able to walk out of the Thornton’s house safely this time. The Thornton family looks glamorous on the surface, but they have countless dirty deals under the table. They are a dirty .family!”
Gerald laughed. He touched his nose and said, “You are welcome. Daphne is my friend, and you are also my friend. This is what I should do.”
Jessica was stunned. She thought, did he just say friend?
Gerald just said that she and Daphne were both his friends, and it sounded a bit strange.
“It’s good that you have come out now, and I have helped you vent your anger. However, have you thought about the future? The Thornton family obviously won’t let this go,” Gerald asked.
Jessica’s face looked sober. Then, she sighed and said, “I don’t know what to do either. The Thornton family is a powerful family, and I can’t afford to offend them. In fact, I don’t hope too much. When I was young, I felt that rich and powerful families were what I wanted. After entering one, I found that it was not the same as I had thought. I am not the kind of disobedient wife…”
As she spoke, her eyes were a little red.
As a single mother, she had some grievances, but she usually kept them to herself, even though she looked glamorous on the outside.
“It’s up to you how you want to deal with the matter.” Gerald said lightly, “If you have any problems, come to me. I will definitely help you solve them.”
Jessica looked at Gerald in shock.
Ingrid said, “Jessica, you and Daphne can go to our house first. No matter what the people of the
Thornton family want to do to cause trouble, they dare not go to our house. If they want to talk to
you, we can let them go directly to our house to have the talk. My grandfather and my father are there, and the people of the Thornton family absolutely dare not go too far.”
“Thank you first, but… I am afraid that it will cause trouble for your family.” Jessica was a little hesitant.
After all, this matter involved the Thornton family. If they went to Ingrid’s home, the Thornton family might resent the Maddox family, and it would affect the Maddox family. Jessica didn’t want
to see that.
Ingrid smiled and said, “Don’t worry. Gerald is with us. There won’t be any problems!”

Jessica looked at Gerald. Gerald smiled at her and said, “Just go to their house. It is indeed safe
there. You have also said that the Thornton family has some dirty tricks. Who knows what they will do to you and Daphne? They are not willing to admit that Daphne is a member of the Thornton family now. They might do anything to hurt you.”
Jessica exhaled and then looked at Ingrid and said, “Thank you!”
After that, she looked at Gerald and said, “If this matter is settled, I will give you enough shares of
Goldsun Group.”
Gerald smiled and did not take it to heart.
Of course, he would never refuse this kind of offer.
This was one of the reasons why Gerald had the support of a powerful business empire.
He not only had the Universe Group.
“Alright, Gerald, I will bring Jessica and Daphne back first. You drive home yourself. Now it is time to get off work,” Ingrid said.
Gerald nodded.
He got in the car and took out his mobile phone. He sent a message to Catherine, saying that he would not go back to the company and she did not have to wait for him. Then he drove to his home.
Too many things happened on this day.
First, it was the annihilation of Dark Phantom, and then it was the matter of the Thornton family. In fact, Gerald was also a little tired, especially because the previous battle had consumed a lot of his
energy.
Fortunately, the mission was over now, and Dax should not be coming out now.
This was what Dax was like. He was known as the Hermit, which meant that he rarely came out from reclusion and rarely acted. Of course, every time he attacked, he was dealing with big shots!
This time, he was eager to get the bones of the Maddox family, and that was why he acted this time. However, in the end, he met Gerald, who had eaten four pieces of dragon bones.
Just as Gerald drove home, in the Maddox’s house in Washington, Eddie quickly walked into the
