Chapter 397 Red Crystal
The corners of everyone's mouths twitched, and they were speechless.
Isabella looked at him in amusement and said, "Alright, I'll be jealous next time, okay? The next time a woman approaches you, I'll hang that person up and beat her up, okay?"
Draxton didn't say anything, but his ears turned slightly red, and the corners of her lips curled up silently.
Ingrid was holding the wine and was already stiff like a piece of wood. Mr. Riley raised his head and shouted angrily, "What are you waiting for? Back off!"
Ingrid quivered, and tears gushed out. She was so embarrassed that her face turned red. She turned around and ran away.
Seeing Ingrid being embarrassed, the corners of Ivory's lips curled up. After that, Ivory followed Ingrid and comforted her.
Mr. Riley stood up and raised his wine glass. He looked at Isabella apologetically and said, "Miraculous Doctor, it's my daughter's fault. I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive her."Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
Isabella played with the glass in her hand and did not have the intention to return the favor. She only said calmly, "Of course, I won't lower myself to the level of an ignorant little girl. Mr. Riley, this is your fault as a father. How can you let a good little girl be so rash?
"I'm not one at a disadvantage in the end. Am I right?"
Mr. Riley broke out in a cold sweat. His face was pale and filled with fear.
He had a feeling that Miraculous Doctor knew that he was the one who instigated his daughter to do that.
He belatedly realized that Miraculous Doctor was the patriarch's wife. If he tried to let his daughter seduce the patriarch again, he would probably be destroyed by the patriarch's wife before they could get close to the patriarch.
Moreover, looking at the patriarch's attitude, it was clear that he was devoted to the patriarch's wife and had no intention of betraying her.
Mr. Riley thought this through and broke out in cold sweat again. He seemed to have made a wrong decision. previously.
Isabella looked at him and took a sip of her wine. She smiled and said, "Mr. Riley, I've always been tolerant of my people. I don't care about this little girl's thoughts."
In other words, she was willing to give Mr. Riley a chance.
Mr. Riley immediately heaved a sigh of relief. He drank the wine in his cup in one gulp and said, "Mrs. Lockwood is magnanimous. I will be loyal to you and the patriarch in the future. I will never betray both of you.
"I will discipline my daughter well and not let her do anything foolish again."
Isabella Thompson smiled and nodded.
The other district masters looked at each other with emotions in their eyes. Regardless of whether it was Mr. Lockwood or Miraculous Doctor, they were not people to be trifled with.
With just a few words, Miraculous Doctor had made Thomas behave himself, and he never dared to have any ill intentions.
The Second Master smiled and raised his wine glass to enliven the atmosphere as if nothing had happened before. The atmosphere was very lively.
When they were almost done drinking, the Seventh Master suddenly asked, "Patriarch, Miraculous Doctor, what are your plans next?"
Everyone fell silent and looked at Isabella and Draxton.
Draxton said, "I don't want to go on a killing spree, so I'll rope in the remaining district masters if I can. If I can't, I don't mind killing them along with Julian."
The Second Master immediately said, "The First Master and the Fourth Master are my good friends. Patriarch, leave them to me. I'll go back and persuade them. They still listen to me." The Seventh Master said, "The Sixth Master should be able to be roped in too."
The Third Master asked back. "The Sixth Master is not on good terms with you. Can you persuade him?"
The Seventh Master smiled and said, "Jeremiah, you don't know this. The Sixth Master and my subordinate, Felix, are both fans of Miraculous Doctor."
The Third Master couldn't help but reveal an expression of doubt.
He muttered, "That's why my men noticed that Felix secretly went to the manor of the Sixth Master several times, not because he betrayed you, but because..."
The Seventh Master coughed lightly. "They might be discussing their idols."
The Third Master was speechless.
Isabella was speechless.
She didn't expect to have a fan like the Sixth Master.
Draxton felt a little upset. He said, "Bella. I heard that the Sixth Chief is fatty with a big belly and a bald head."
Isabella smiled and said, "Felix is an old man with a beard."
Draxton looked at Isabella. Isabella also looked at Draxton. The two of them looked at each other silently. Aspen smiled and said, "That's good. In this way, we're only left with the Fifth Master and Eighth Maste to deal with."
The Seventh Master frowned and said, "The Eighth Master is just a puppet. Instead of roping in the Eighth Master, it's better to rope in the underground chamber of commerce. Joshua is not a simple person. "As for the Fifth Master..."
The Third Master continued, "As for the Fifth Master, ignore him. This person is not normal."
The Second Master said, "You guys don't know, right? Joshua was originally the patriarch's subordinate." Everyone was shocked.
The Second Master explained Joshua's identity and background, and the atmosphere became lively again. The Seventh Master said, "It seems that the patriarch came prepared. With such a plan and arrangement, the Mystical Island will belong to the patriarch sooner or later! Julian can't compete with the patriarch at all!"
Draxton said, "Who said I'm going to dominate the Mystical Island?"
Everyone was stunned.
They said in shock, "Could it be that the patriarch doesn't want to become the master of the Mystical Island?" Isabella said, "The tenth elder of the council is my master, and Landon is a respected elder too. "Julian framed Landon. When we find evidence of Julian murdering the old president, Julian will step down, and Landon will take over."
Hiss!
Everyone could not help but gasp. The Second Master said, "We were wrong."
However, no matter who took over, they did not follow the wrong leader.
"If the previous president's death was caused by Julian, traces would be left behind. Mr. and Mrs. Lockwood, the few of us can try to help. Also, the 1st district master and Julian were the closest, so he might know the most," the 2nd district master said.
Draxton nodded and said, "Second Master, so I'll leave the First Master to you!"
The district master's manor in District 9 had just welcomed a new owner when it became an ownerless manor again.
Everyone in District 9 seemed to know that the new district master and his wife were dead.
However, Red Crystal Warrior was still guarding the district master's manor.
Landon lived here often, and Jocelyn also came here every other day.
With the protection of the Red Crystal Warrior, along with Landon's force and Jocelyn's protection, Landon had the upper hand in the battle with Julian during this period. Julian had been defeated several times. He was anxious and hateful. After Cecilia's death, he seemed to have lost an important weapon. He seemed like he was restrained. Fortunately, the Beck family and the Sullivan family were standing on the same side as him.
On this day, they came to the district master's manor in District 9 once again.
lan was holding a small jar with many holes in it. He asked Julian with uncertainty, "Mr. Doyle, can the contents of this jar control those Red Crystal Warriors? "Will they fall for it and listen to us?"
Julian said with certainty, "Mr. Sullivan, don't worry. These are treasures that Celia has painstakingly nurtured. With them around, we will be able to obtain the Red Crystal.
"Hmph, if we want to deal with Landon and Jocelyn, we have to snatch these Red Crystals. With Draxton and Isabella dead and without the Red Crystals, let's see how long they can be arrogant.
