Chapter 436
The President looked at everyone and explained, “You guys didn’t know this, right? Wesley is Bella’s teacher. I said before that Bella is my niece because of their relationship.”
Everyone had different expressions as they looked at Isabella in bewilderment.
Isabella lowered her head and poured herself a glass of water.
‘ Don’t try to make you two seem closer than you really are. Bella is my student. What does it have to do with you?’ Wesley retorted unhappily.
The President looked at him and said, “Wesley, let’s not involve others in our disagreement. You’re my younger brother. Wouldn’t that make your disciple my junior?
“Draxton, don’t you think that makes sense?’ Draxton said, Let’s not talk about this for now. Since the matter has been decided, please prepare for the handover of the property.
“The four departments of Big Dipper are already your businesses. I’ll go back and make arrangements at the Vernon Branch. You can send people to the Vernon Branch for the necessary procedures.”
The President’s expression froze. He looked at Draxton and said, “Draxton, have you thought it through?” Draxton said calmly, ’Sir, why do you say that? Isn’t that what you want?”
The President said nothing.
Draxton stood up and said, Bella is pregnant. I’ll take her back to rest first. Goodbye, Sir.”
Mr. Lyons, Bella and I will leave first,” Draxton said respectfully to Wesley.
Wesley nodded and reminded, Be careful on the road.’
Draxton nodded and left with Isabella.
The room fell into a temporary silence as soon as they left.
Mr. Lyons swept his disdainful gaze past Darius and the others. He snorted coldly and lowered his head to drink his coffee.
Darius looked at Wesley hesitantly and said to the President, “Sir… what does Mr. Lockwood mean?’
The President did not say anything. His expression was dark.
“Everyone, you can go back first,” the President said to them.
Denver’s expression changed slightly. He was a little unwilling. He wanted to say something, but Michael pulled him back, so he could only shut his mouth.
“Sir, we’ll take our leave first.” Everyone stood up and left with different thoughts in their minds.
After leaving the Presidential Palace, the people from the Wheeler and the Flouder family, as well as Darius’s group of four stopped in their tracks. They looked at each other with grave expressions.
“Gentlemen, you should understand Mr. Lockwood, right? What did Mr. Lockwood mean today?” Michael asked.
Denver said, “What’s the point? It’s obvious that he’s trying to curry favor with the President and compete with us!”
Michael looked at him helplessly. Yax could not stand it anymore and said, “Dad, that’s impossible. Don’t talk nonsense.”
Denver immediately glared at his son. At this moment, Darius said, “Based on our understanding of Draxton, he must have a purpose for doing this. As for what he’s thinking, we can’t figure it out.But there’s one thing. He never does anything that does not benefit him.” Michael fell silent.
There was a flash in Denver’s eyes. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he could not refute Darius.
‘This time, the Lockwood family lost four of their divisions to us, and the Wheeler and Flouder families also divided up the Lockwood family’s other industries. We are already the Lockwood family’s enemy. Draxton is ruthless. The two of you have to be careful.”
“We have the President backing us up. What can Draxton do to us?” Denver glared at him and said indignantly.
Dominic said, ‘Mr. Wheeler, Draxton is not to be trifled with. That’s all we have to say. You guys take care of yourselves.
“By the way, the Vernon Branch is in Maestria, right?’
“Wherever the Vernon Branch is, it has nothing to do with our two families,’ Michael said.
Dominic glanced at Michael and did not say anything. He turned around and got into the car to leave.
Denver asked, Michael, what do they mean? They used to be Draxton’s subordinates. Had they been scared out of their wits by Draxton?”
Michael said, “Denver, they’re right. Draxton is not easy to deal with. We’ve really offended him this time.’
“Am I supposed to be scared?” Denver flew into a rage out of humiliation.
“Denver, what do you have to use against Draxton? If Draxton really wants to deal with you, do you think the President will protect you?
“Our two families are only tools that the President is using to deal with the Lockwood family. The President can find himself two new tools when we are destroyed. Do you understand?”
