Kingsley then drove Donald to Pollerton General Hospital to check out Ysabel’s condition.
Meanwhile, James and Albert were meeting the assassin at East City Machine Factory.
Despite being in his thirties, James’ gaze was as merciless as a venomous snake.
Dressed in an Armani suit while wearing an expensive watch, Jeremy seemed tall and muscular.
“Bert, how did it go?” James queried.
He was still thinking about Jennifer, whose figure had been on his mind for the past few days. A lady who owned a graceful temperament like her was rare.
With a gleeful smile, Albert reassured, “Rest assured. Someone will be looking for you within three days.”
James asked, “Oh? What tactic have you employed?”
Albert pulled over the man in a cap. “This is my cousin, Andrew Winston.”
Lifting his head, Andrew revealed a ferocious scar across his face as he stared at James.
While waiting for Albert to continue speaking, James briefly nodded.
Albert went on, “Jennifer’s ex-husband is Donald, the abandoned child of the Campbell clan. After they had gotten a divorce, Ysabel—Jennifer’s cousin—fell in love with Donald and began pestering him. However, everyone from the Stern family, especially Beatrice—Ysabel’s mother—strongly disapproves of it.”
“What does that have to do with my plan of obtaining Jennifer?” questioned James.
Albert smiled faintly. “Calm down, James. Hear me out first. I’ve sent Andrew to land a severe injury on Ysabel tonight. The bullet is covered in the ecstasy medicine you’ve formulated. Didn’t you mention that you’re the only one who’s able to detoxify this poison? Now that Ysabel has been shot with it, there’s no way Pollerton General Hospital and Nouveau Hospital are able to treat her.”
With a smug look, he continued excitedly, “If you suddenly appear when everyone is in great despair and manage to rescue Ysabel with a mere needle, isn’t that a chance for you to display your exceptional medical skills and level up your reputation? After all, Jennifer is someone ordinary who doesn’t have any foundation. Everything that she currently owns is fostered by the Wilson family of Tayhaven. However, the Wilson family and Jennifer are currently on bad terms. If you show up while demonstrating your impressive capability, would the Wilson family agree to it if you openly express your love for Jennifer and hope that she would marry you? Or should I say… Would the Stern family agree to it?”
When James heard that, his eyes sparkled with excitement as he gave Albert a thumbs-up. “Impressive! Once everything is resolved, Andrew and you will receive a reward of three million each!”
At that, Andrew felt over the moon.
Regaining his composure, James asked, “Are you sure it’s fine to fire shots publicly?”
With a mask of complacence, Albert reassured, “My father is the head of the Winston family for this cycle, and the Winston family is currently the second most influential clan of Pollerton. Although we currently only have around a hundred members, my dad is able to gather ten thousand strong laborers from the Winstons all around Pollerton within three hours by making a single phone call! With such power, Zayne means nothing. Besides, my mother comes from the Denzel family, which is the most influential clan in Pollerton!”
James nodded. “Okay then. Let’s figure out what we should do next.”
Meanwhile, Donald was in an alley outside the hospital. Amid the darkness, a dense cluster of Azure Wyvern guards could be seen standing behind him.
Kingsley, who was also known as Wyvern King, along with Bradley, stood behind Donald, remaining silent and motionless as they were aware that Donald was currently infuriated.
Once Donald was furious, he would turn the world upside down.
Bradley remarked, “The Winston family currently has more than ten thousand strong laborers registered, so it’s quite a hassle to deal with them. Even Neil dares not mess with them. Usually, they would be busy with their own work in different areas such as farming or running businesses. However, under the clan leader’s command, they would gather within a short period of time. Besides, the wife of the current leader of the Winston family is from the Denzel family—Pollerton’s most influential family—with seventy thousand strong laborers registered!”
