Chapter 382 Sorry That I’m Late
Tyson suddenly froze.
Thomas’s pupils dilated widely as he looked at Draxton in shock.
As for Draxton, he slowly raised his head to look at them. “Since you two recognize me, why hide it and pretend not to know me?”
The corners of Thomas’s mouth twitched. He smiled awkwardly and said, “Well… Sir, I don’t understand what you’re saying.
Draxton glanced at him and smiled faintly. “I’ll assume that you don’t understand. But Second Master will get it.”
As he spoke, he looked at Tyson’s stiff back.
Meanwhile, Isabella had heard everything clearly through the golden butterfly stud in the Hendrixes’ residence.
She lowered her eyes and fell into deep thought. “The district masters in Paradise Settlement are all Julian’s people. The only one who doesn’t comply with him has been assassinated.
“In that case, won’t Draxton be in danger?
“He has revealed Second Master’s identity. That means he doesn’t intend to play nice with them.”
Without hesitation, Isabella used the phone in the house to make a call. “Draxton is in the Riley family. He is deeply grateful to the two Miss Rileys for saving his life. He said he wants to repay their kindness with spring water. Please send two bottles of spring water to them.”
Since Draxton had unmasked Tyson’s identity, Thomas and Tyson decided to drop their pretense.
The guards of the Riley family formed three circles around Draxton.
Thomas sneered. “What a pity, Mr. Lockwood. It was unlucky for you to have been brought back by my two daughters. Tell me, where is your wife now?”
Draxton glanced at him indifferently and sit down on the couch at the side. The coffee in the coffee maker had already turned cold. He looked up at Thomas and pointed at the coffee maker.
“Mr. Riley, make me a cup of coffee. What’s the hurry? Why don’t we all sit down and talk over a coffee?”
He acted like the man of the house.
On the contrary, Thomas and Tyson seemed like the guests.
Ingrid and Ivory stood at the side and looked at Draxton with admiration, “He is so handsome!”
“I have never seen such an incredible man.”
“If normal people were in this kind of situation, they would have pissed their pants and begged for mercy or gone hysterical to fight their way out.
“However, there was something about this man, even if he is just sitting there casually, he looks as majesty as a king.
“He is born to be a leader.
“He is so good-looking, even the nightrobe on his body doesn’t undermine his charm one bit.
“Oh my god!”
Thomas gestured for a servant to make coffee. When he looked up and saw his daughters’ fan-girl looks, his face instantly turned red with anger.
These two are good-for-nothings!”
Pointing to the seats opposite him, Draxton said to Thomas and Tyson, “Guys, take a seat. How are we supposed to talk if both of you are standing?”
Thomas’s face was gloomy, whereas Tyson pondered for a moment and let out a long sigh. “Mr. Lockwood looks confident. Could it be that Mrs. Lockwood and the people from Clan Mobius are coming to save you?” Draxton answered lightly, “No.”
“Then why are you so calm? Do you really think we don’t have the nerve to kill you?” Tyson asked curiously. Draxton replied, “I rarely sit down and chat with irrelevant people. However, I don’t think you’re irrelevant. So, let’s sit down and have a good talk.”
After Tyson and Thomas sat down, a servant brought the coffee over. Draxton served the coffee to the two of them.
“I’ve only served coffee to my elders, wife, and children. Apart from them, no one has enjoyed this privilege before. But you’re going to be my own people. It’s worth it.”
Thomas immediately looked at Draxton as if he was looking at a lunatic. His eyes were filled with disdain. Tyson scoffed, “Mr. Lockwood, are you going to persuade us to pledge loyalty to you?”
Draxton took a sip of the coffee without answering.
Just then, a guard rushed in and walked to Thomas’s side. He said, “Mr. Riley, Mr. Joshua Miller, the president of the underground chamber of commerce is here.”
Thomas was shocked. His face filled with disbelief.
“I’ve never had any dealings with Joshua before. Many people want to get in with the underground chamber of commerce, but they don’t know the right way. Why does he suddenly come by today?
