Chapter 144 Taking The Kids Home
Ethan, don’t break your relationship with Olivia. The marriage between the Riker and Lockwood families will happen. You have to be patient.
Your grandpa and I have been listening to your conversation and know you are getting along very well.”
Ethan was stunned for a moment. When he reacted, a chill spread throughout his body. He said in disbelief, “Uncle, you and grandpa planted a bug on me?”
Lindon waved his hand indifferently. “What are you making a fuss about? Your grandpa and I are just concerned about you.”
Ethan wanted to retort, but he could not say a word.
A few years ago, he only felt that the Riker family was cold.
But now, he felt scared and disgusted:
However, this was his family. These people were all his blood relatives.
Ethan was trembling uncontrollably in anger and fear.
Chapter 144 Bellas Speeding Car
Chapter 144 Bella’s Speeding Car
Isabella left Savor with the kids of the Lockwood family and introduced them to Jake.
The Lockwood family’s people were very polite. Jake’s attitude was also quite friendly.
“Isabella, Jake, we got to leave now,” the few of them said obediently.
“Go ahead. Be careful on the road,” Isabella reminded them with a smile.
These people came together, and only Bernard drove a car.
Olivia came by her car and also left after bidding farewell to Isabella.
In the end, only Isabella and Jake were left.
Jake smiled and said, “These young people of the Lockwood family are not bad. No wonder you’re willing to accept Draxton.
“Initially, I was worried that you would have to give yourself to someone else for the sake of your children. Now, it seems that the Lockwood family has attracted you with their charm.”
Isabella lifted her eyebrow. “Of course. I’m not the kind of person who would give in easily and make things difficult for myself. At first, I pretended to be timid in front of Draxton. Later, I realized there was no need to pretend.”
“I heard that Mr. Langley has a house in Dawton City. It was for you to live in,” Jake said.
Isabella was stunned. “Aren’t you staying with us at Northernville Manor?”
“No, I have something to do. It’s not suitable for me to stay there permanently. This time, I’m going to stay at Dawton City for quite a while.”
Isabella nodded. “Alright.”
She rummaged in her bag and found a key.
Then, Isabella handed the key to Jake and said, “I’ll drive you there.”
She and Ricky lived in Mr. Langley’s house when they first came to Dawton City.
Now, there were still many of Ricky’s toys and some of her things in the house.
Those were not often used, so she did not move all of them to Northernville Manor.
What they knew was that Bernard and the others lived on the same street as them.
When Isabella drove to a road with few cars, she realized a large truck that was neither new nor old swaying in front of her car in an S-shaped slow snail shape.
Isabella frowned. She instinctively felt that something was wrong.
She glanced in the rearview mirror. No cars were following them. They could turn around at any time.
That meant that they were not targeting Isabella and Jake.
This road was a little remote. There were not many people in the surveillance camera. In such a situation, it would not be discovered for a while.
“There’s something strange ahead,” Jake said.
Isabella said, “Should we turn around?”
Jake pondered for a moment. “Alright…”
As soon as he finished speaking, the faint sound of gunshots came from ahead.
