Chapter 301 Scumbag
Gerald looked arrogant, and no one took his words seriously at all!
Who was Jared? Although he didn’t often show up in public now, he was still one of the big shots in
Washington.
Gerald meant that even Jared had to be humble in front of him. He looked less than thirty years old, yet he was so presumptuous. People would only think that he was bragging.
Milford stared at Gerald and calmed down a lot. He put away the baseball bat in his hand and said lightly, “Look at him. He insulted me and my grandfather!”
The waiter had a headache.
He seemed to be in a dilemma and had offended both Gerald and Milford at the same time. Originally, he wanted to accept Milford’s double rewards and drive Gerald and the others out.
However, the current situation was beyond his expectations. Gerald was also rich and wasn’t afraid
of the Thornton family at all.
Seeing that the waiter fell silent, Gerald looked at Milford and asked, “Who is your father? Cale,
Vernon, or Edric?”
Milford sneered, “It’s none of your business.”
The waiter said hurriedly, “His father is Mr. Vernon Thornton.”
Gerald was amused and put on a faint smile. “Your father just died, but you went out to pick up girls. If I were Vernon and had a son like you, I would have charged out of the coffin and taught you a
lesson.”
Gerald’s words stunned Milford. He stared at Gerald and asked, “How do you know?”
The Thornton family had hidden Vernon’s and Dylan’s death from the outside world.
In fact, the Thornton family was in a mess right now!
Edric had kicked Vernon out, which caused Vernon to be killed by Gerald. Then, Dylan claimed that he would take back Edric’s power. Since that was the case, who should be the one to replace Edric’s position? Among the younger generation, Cale was the only candidate.
Cale was the third son of the Thornton family.
Dylan was dead, and the Night Watch did not deal with Jared and the others. Thus, Edric was naturally unwilling to give up on his power, even though Jared was supporting Cale!
Edric was still powerful in the Thornton family. Since he had no intention of resigning, Cale was fighting for power with him and even intended to separate the Thornton family.
Because of Vernon’s death, Milford was ignored.
As a member of the Thornton family, he did lack money.
Gerald smiled at Milford and said, “How would I know? Because I saw it with my own eyes. Dylan also died in front of me. You know Dylan, right?”
Although Gerald was smiling, Milford’s forehead was starting to sweat.
He stared at Gerald.
Gerald continued, “Speaking of which, there are still some contradictions between me and the Thornton family. Since I have returned to Washington this time, I am going to solve them. You can
call Jared and ask him who I am.”
After that, he reminded Milford, “By the way, my name is Gerald Kenneth!”
Milford had not heard Gerald’s name before.
He was still a college student. Most of the time, he was not in the Thornton’s house because he did
not like the atmosphere there.
With a conflicted expression on her face, Athena sensed that something was wrong.
Gerald looked so calm and confident. He didn’t care about the Thornton family at all. His tone was
natural, and he didn’t pretend to be composed.
Athena knew that she had met a powerful enemy this time. For a moment, she began to struggle.
