The Billionaire's Kick Ass Wife

"How are Stanton and Megan?" Draxton asked.

Alfred sighed and said, 'Their relationship has always been harmonious, but the two of them haven't been in a good state for the past two days. This is also the reason why he didn't come personally to pick you and Isabella up'

Draxton said, How could there be spiked wine at a business meeting? Has Stanton found out who did it?"

Alfred shook his head. "There're no clues. The people who attended the business gathering that day were all famous people in the industry. They also have a good relationship with him. There's really no one to suspect."

Draxton said, It's fine. I'll help him investigate this matter since I'm here.'

Alfred nodded, relieved.

The car got off the highway and drove onto a winding mountain road heading to the suburbs.

However, not long after, they were forced to stop the car.

The path ahead was blocked by a group of people.

The black car parked haphazardly on the road. A few cars had been turned upside down, and there were also a few whose doors had been knocked out. There were even some that were on fire.

A group of people in black suits were confronting a group of people dressed in colorful clothes. Both sides were covered in wounds, and some of them even had blood on their heads and faces. At this moment, the two groups of people were holding guns and refused to give in to each other.

Alfred frowned and his expression turned ugly. His first reaction was to reverse the car and turn around, planning to take another path.

However, just as they turned around and were about to drive away, many black cars roared over and instantly surrounded their car.

Alfred's expression changed completely.

"This... Draxton, I'm sorry. This road was fine when I came. I didn't expect..."

"We sure are unlucky," Isabella said helplessly.

Ricky and Betty looked outside curiously through the gap in the front seat. The two little children's eyes were filled with excitement and they were not afraid at all. Isabella reached out and pulled the two children into her arms. "Sit properly and don't move."

Ricky and Betty obediently stopped moving. Ricky even turned to the side and blocked in front of Isabella's stomach, as if protecting the child in Isabella's stomach. Isabella smiled and rubbed his hair. "Don't be nervous. Daddy is here."

When Draxton heard that, his sense of accomplishment and responsibility instantly exploded. His dark blue eyes lit up as he said, "Bella, don't worry. With me around, I won't let any of you get hurt." Isabella replied with a smile.

At this moment, the cars that came from behind also stopped. A large group of people in colorful clothes emerged from the cars.

They looked at Isabella's car curiously with malicious smiles in their eyes.

One of them said, "Which family is this unlucky guy from? He actually ran into us fighting!"

Another person said, Don't cause trouble. Business is more important!"

Then, those people waved steel pipes and pistols as they rushed forward. They surrounded the men in black suits with the other people in colorful clothes.

"They're not Lucsian." Isabella raised her eyebrows slightly and stared at the group of people in colorful clothes in surprise.

Draxton frowned slightly and said, "They must be some dark force from Southeast Aelinne."

Isabella said, "They are foreign factions, yet they are still so arrogant in Maestria? Which faction are those people in black suits from?"

It was Alfred who answered her. Alfred said, "Isabella, those are people from the Star Society."

"Star Society?" Isabella thought for a moment and said, "I heard that the president of the Star Society is Thomas Sandler. Thomas is not a kind person. Why would he let his men be bullied by foreign forces?" Alfred looked at Isabella in surprise. He did not expect Isabella to know so much.

At this moment, Draxton said, "Bella, you might not know this, but Thomas is Vernon's subordinate. Vernon is the successor of the Vernon Branch."

"That means that Star Society is actually a faction of the Vernon Branch?" Isabella asked.

Draxton's gaze darkened. "That's right."

"So we just watch?" Isabella asked. Draxton said, Let's watch first.'

Isabella was a little excited. "Why don't I show my face and help them?Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"Draxton, you gave the Vernon Branch to the President. Wouldn't helping them also be your token of appreciation?'

Draxton's expression immediately darkened. He looked at Isabella accusingly and said, "Bella, have you forgotten that you're pregnant?"

Isabella immediately sighed. "You're really treating me like a porcelain doll. I'll just be taking care of a few small fries!"

Alfred took a deep breath and his face turned pale. "Isabella, you're pregnant? I—I'll call Sir now and ask him to send someone over to pick you up❞

As he spoke, he took out his phone nervously and made a call.

While they were talking, the men in black suits in front of them had already been beaten up.

One of the foreign thugs saw Alfred making a call and thought that he was calling the police. His eyes immediately revealed a ferocious glint as he smashed the steel pipe at their car.

The car window was instantly smashed, and fragments flew everywhere.

"Throw your phone away if you don't want to die!" the person roared threateningly.

His voice immediately attracted a few more thugs. They rushed over and smashed the car doors on either side.

The car shook as it was being smashed from either side, and the window glass was shattered. The steel pipe poked in from the outside, mixed with flying glass fragments. Draxton grabbed the steel pipe.
