Chapter 166: Chapter 142: Destroying the Balance, Returning to the Stephens Family (4 updates)

"Smack."

The elderly Mr. Lynch, who rarely loses his temper, suddenly slapped the table.

Xander Webb’s stout body trembled with a start.

"Foolish! Xander, you are just..." Old Lynch jabbed a finger at Xander Webb’s nose and berated him, "an idiot!"

"Old Lynch, when we adopted Madison, we, the Webb Family, wanted to do something for everyone too."

Xander Webb forced a bitter smile.

He had not expected things to turn out this way.

"This is such a big issue and you’ve only informed us now. Are the Webbs trying to purposefully harm the Lynch Family and the Weston Family?"

The Lynch Family, Weston Family, and Webb Family were interconnected through marriage and shared a close relationship.

Pull one hair and the whole body is affected.

Hindsight was perfect. When the Webbs had adopted Madison, they thought they were casually bringing back a child from Western Europe.

Who would have thought that she was the daughter of the Synder Family?

The Synder Family was publicly involved in the shipbuilding business, but they all knew the truth.

The Synder Family made a living from witchcraft!

"Old Lynch, it’s our fault, the Webb Family."

Old Lynch gave a cold sneer.

Ignoring him, he took out his mobile phone and called Liam Lynch and the Weston Family Leader.

While the three families were working together to locate Madison Webb,

The Slaughter Squad had already completely disposed of those several dozen beasts.

Because innocent bystanders were hurt, many tasks were added to Francis Long’s workload.

At the same time, it challenged the Slaughter Squad’s bottom line.

The temporary base of the Sheffield Slaughter Squad.

In front of the long conference table, Len Hawthorne ran this meeting with an icy smile.

"Review Bryson Taylor’s confession again."

"Does Young Master Hawthorne think he lied?"

"Whether or not he lied will be known upon review."

"Those in the research department above have developed a drug for truth-telling. Would you like to give it a try?"

"Do you think the Taylor Family will have no defense against this?" Len Hawthorne sneered coldly.

It’s troublesome to deal with ancient martial artists who are also familiar with medicine.

Drugs won’t be very effective, and other areas are also being continuously obstructed.

Ethan Coates was also irate.

Previously, only those from Dark City were creating troubles, but now even beasts were roaming into the larger cities.

Someone wanted to disrupt the balance.

*

Three days before school starts.

Chloe Stephens had packed her luggage and was heading to Sheffield City with Yvette Foster.

She sent a message to Len Hawthorne, letting him know that he did not need to go to the mountain county anymore.

After Yvette Foster made a phone call to Adam Stephens, she sat in the car in a flustered state.

At this time in the Stephens Family.

Rowan Stephens had specifically cleared his schedule for the day to wait for Chloe.

He could ignore this kind of thing, but he had to show how much he valued his sister.

He would not allow himself to be seen in a poor light by anyone.

Chloe leaned back in her seat to rest, with no particular feeling about her impending life in the Stephens family.

The sole reason she was entering the Stephens family was to acknowledge the birth parents of the original host and to redress the harm they caused. In this way, the cause and effect were resolved.

Although she didn’t subscribe to the beliefs associated with deities,

Yvette Foster silently squeezed Chloe’s hand; Chloe opened her eyes, looked down at the hand tightly gripping hers, but said nothing.

"Chloe! What a coincidence!"

Mason Sullivan and Franklin Walter appeared in the car simultaneously.

And Oliver Gordon was tagging along behind.

Oliver Gordon had refused his family’s private car and gotten on this one with his luggage and tuition fees.

This car carried many students who were heading to Sheffield City for further studies.

Their destinations were all the same.

Chloe nodded, "Coincidence."

"Chloe, these must be your classmates," Yvette Foster said with a smile and nodded at the trio.

"Hello aunt!"

"Everyone’s good, go to your own seats, the car’s moving." Yvette Foster reminded them gently.

Mason Sullivan and Franklin Walter moved forward to their seats, while Oliver Gordon sat three seats away from Chloe.

He had noticed her from the moment he got on the bus.

*

They arrived at Sheffield City.

Everyone got off the vehicle together.

Once out of the station, Mason Sullivan and his group approached again.

"Auntie, Chloe, let’s walk together," suggested Mason, raising his letter of admission in his hand. "We’re going to the same school, and I hope we’re in the same class too!"

Yvette Foster felt reassured seeing they were going to the same school, knowing her daughter would have companionship in the future.

"So you’re student Sullivan, right?"

"Auntie, my name is Mason Sullivan, and this is Franklin Walter, our former vice class leader!" Mason introduced effusively.

"I didn’t bring any gifts with me, but I’ll treat you to dinner tomorrow when we register!" Yvette said with a smile.

"Auntie, aren’t you coming with us to have a look at the school?" Mason asked Chloe in surprise.

"We have to go somewhere else, so we won’t go to the school with you," Yvette responded.

The mother and daughter walked away together.

Adam Stephens, all suited up, stepped out of an extended Rolls-Royce. Tall and striking, he radiated an attractive aura of maturity.

Even at his age, he looked like a man in his thirties, drawing the gaze of the surrounding women.

Even teenage girls couldn’t help but glance back at him.

"Yvette!"

Adam rushed over to them taking two strides at a time and pulled Yvette into a tight embrace.

"Adam!"

"You’ve worked hard!"

"Not at all!"

Yvette found her rock, her previous unease completely vanishing.

From a distance, Mason and the others couldn’t see clearly.

Several bodyguards in suits came forward and escorted the mother and daughter to the vehicle.

"That’s the emblem of the prestigious Stephens family, right?" someone pointed to the emblem on the car.

"Seems like it."

"No wonder there’s such a lavish procession. I wonder who they’re picking up."

"That man is so handsome! Ah! I recognize him now. His picture was in the news. He’s the CEO of the Stephens Group!"

"Really? And here I thought he was still single. I didn’t expect him to already have a wife and daughter."

"What a shame, I forgot to take a picture."

"Even if we had taken photos, we couldn’t have posted them anywhere."

Hearing the murmurs around him, Oliver Gordon clenched his fists slowly.

The once inconsequential girl is now untouchable. Even if her studies are not up to par, she’s still unattainable with the backing of the Stephens family.

*

Inside the car.

Adam held onto Yvette’s hand tightly.

He wanted his wife and daughter to stay with him, yet he didn’t want them to be involved in these treacherous matters any longer.

Chloe leaned against the car, engrossed in her mobile phone.

The atmosphere in the car was quiet, with a hint of tension.

This sliver of tension emanated from Yvette.

Chloe was responding to a message from Len Hawthorne.

[Going back home to the Stephens. Just a formality.]

[From now on, brother will be in Sheffield too. Inform me first if anything happens.]

[If I need help, I will.]

[It’s better if you don’t spend much time at home. It’s better to live on campus.]

[I’ll see.]

Looking at those replies, Len contemplated.

What was the conspiring Stephens family planning, bringing them back?

Ever since Chloe said she would kill that beast, Len had been assessing her capabilities.

Perhaps.

Everyone had underestimated Chloe.

*

Outside the Stephens residence.

Many people were gathered at the entrance to the estate, watching as Adam brought the mother and daughter back.

Some kept sneaky glances at Rowan Stephens, eyeing his careful facial expressions.

Rowan had been adopted under Adam’s name four years ago.

It had been less than two years since he moved in with Adam when the mother and daughter had been sent back to their mountain county.

Two years later, they were brought back again.

Rowan was in the most awkward position.

Everyone wanted to see how he would react to his new younger sister.

Rowan knew what they were thinking. Those who bore him ill-will wanted this foolish sister to push him out, making room for themselves.

Meanwhile, at the Fisher residence...

Upon hearing that Chloe was back, Filbert Fisher could not wait.

As soon as he got the news, he hurriedly set off to see Zachary Fisher.
