Chapter 201: Chapter 177: Must Strive for It (Third Update)

Morgan Crowley chose the right time and came over from his own villa.

When Chloe Stephens left school at noon and went straight back to the Golden Villa District, Morgan was already there.

"Stephens Godfrey, the matter at the Taylor Family didn’t affect you, did it?"

"No."

"That’s good," Morgan asked, "After taking your medicine last time, my cultivation has improved a lot, but some things don’t feel quite right."

Chloe hesitated for a moment and pointed to a stone bench next to them.

Morgan sat down and, following Chloe’s cue, stretched out his hand. He exclaimed in surprise, "Stephens Godfrey, you can even take a pulse!"

Chloe took his pulse, and in less than a minute, she withdrew her hand and looked at Morgan.

Morgan felt a chill down his spine, "What’s the result? Do I have to go back again?"

"There’s something wrong with what you’re cultivating."

Morgan turned pale, "What... what do you mean?"

"You’re cultivating in reverse, you’re lucky to be alive."

"Stephens Godfrey! Are you saying I cultivated the wrong way?"

"Who taught you?"

Morgan turned even paler.

Chloe didn’t ask any further, stood up, and said, "Stop cultivating."

Morgan didn’t hear her.

As Morgan left like a walking corpse, Chloe entered the villa.

Rowan Stephens noticed that his father, Adam Stephens, had been lost in thought for the fifth time.

"Father."

Adam looked over and said indifferently, "Continue."

Rowan picked up the report in his hand and continued speaking.

As Rowan was about to leave to handle matters, Adam suddenly stopped him.

"Do you know why so many people chose only you back then?"

Adam’s tone was somewhat cold.

Rowan shook his head.

"Because you’re smart enough to know what to do and what not to do."

Rowan nodded, "I know what I should do."

"I hope so."

*

Rowan closed the door, his eyes slightly cold.

He didn’t know why his father suddenly said those words to him again, but he was sure that his father’s attitude towards him was becoming increasingly suspicious.

Kenneth Stephens walked out of the elevator and saw Rowan standing outside the door, giving a slight smile, "Rowan."

"Uncle Thirteen."

"Did your father lecture you again? He’s like that, always strict with everyone, you have to get used to it."

Rowan nodded with a forced smile, "Father is doing it for my own good."

Kenneth smiled again, "There’s a project on my side, do you want to come and learn together?"

Rowan hesitated.

He was suddenly alert.

Suddenly being so nice to him, was there no ulterior motive?

"I have a lot of work to do, and I’m busy studying. Thank you, Uncle Thirteen, I’m afraid I can’t..."

"It’s alright," Kenneth smiled and patted Rowan on the shoulder, "Little Chloe has been back for quite some time now. Although you are an adopted son, you are still her brother, and you two should get along well. Of course, when it comes to his biological daughter, your father may be biased, but you should understand that Little Chloe’s situation isn’t very good, so as her brother, you should be more understanding."

Rowan frowned even more, but on the surface, he smiled and nodded, saying okay.

As Rowan left, Kenneth entered the room.

At noon, Yvette Foster was picked up by the driver to dine nearby, while Kenneth and Adam happened to come out together.

Yvette waited for Kenneth to leave before walking over.

Adam held her hand and said, "I’ve booked a different restaurant today."

Yvette Foster sat with Adam Stephens in another restaurant, and before they had taken a few bites, Adam started to speak, "Today, from what Chloe said, she seems to want to fight for her own place."

"Fight for what?"

"When you originally said you wanted to leave, I had thought about it too. As soon as the family lets me go, I’ll find you." Adam put down his spoon and fork, looked at Yvette Foster, and continued, "Later I realized that I was naive. No matter what I do, as long as I stand in this position, others will always find millions of reasons to hurt you. So, over the years, I’ve made my own plans, but unfortunately, before things had matured, the family brought you back. And, what Chloe said today made me realize she’s not as foolish as we thought she was, and maybe even smarter than we imagine."

Yvette was anxious upon hearing his words.

She had a feeling that Adam was going to say something bloody.

Her experiences had shown that confrontations within the Stephens family were bloody, and even siblings would not hesitate to kill each other without mercy.

Not knowing where her courage came from, Yvette reached out her hand and held his tightly, with a determined look in her eyes, "No matter what you want to do, I will follow you."

Adam held her back.

"Yvette, what we’re going to do next may be very risky, and it may involve our lives..."

"No matter what, I support you. My life is yours."

Adam smiled, but in this moment, he couldn’t promise her anything.

But he swore that as long as he was alive, he would not let anyone in the family lay a finger on them."

Trouble occurred in the Taylor family.

The Winston family of Lych City also received the news, so for now, they won’t go to Sheffield City.

However, the Winston family did not expect something else.

They didn’t go out, but the Slaughter Squad came to them.

The person leading the team was not Len Hawthorne, but the cold-faced Jimmy Turner.

Upon hearing that the Slaughter Squad had arrived, the head of the Winston family came out to meet the members personally.

Seeing Jimmy Turner’s uniform, the Head of the Winston Family frowned slightly, "Jimmy, I wonder why the Slaughter Squad came to the Winston Family in Lych City."

"Snap."

A shiny yellow rectangular card fell on the table.

The faces of the Winston family members changed instantly.

Jimmy stood at the entrance of the door with the Slaughter Squad members, expressionlessly looking at the head of the Winston family.

The head of the Winston family’s eyes darkened further, "What does the Slaughter Squad mean by this."

"Can’t you see? This is a yellow card warning; exceeding three yellow and red cards results in a black card. The head of the Winston family must know what this means, right? The fact that our commander came here in person today is already giving face to your family. You should also be clear about what the Winston family has done in Sheffield City."

A team member stepped forward, speaking coldly.

Some members of the Winston family were irritated and took a step forward, but were stopped by their leader’s hand signal.

Jimmy Turner said, "The Taylor family is a prime example."

The eyes of the Head of the Winston family darkened once again.

After checking the message that Jimmy sent, Len Hawthorne put away his mobile phone and turned to see the girl approaching him under the moonlight.

He reached out to take the schoolbag from the girl, "How did it go?"

"Huh?"

Chloe looked at him in confusion.

Not knowing what he was talking about, she was at a loss for words.

"Didn’t you say last time that you wanted to solve some fundamental problems in the Stephens family? Have you figured out how to do it? I have several plans here, very convenient."

Then, Chloe received several sheets of paper he handed her.

It was all about schemes to suppress the opposition.

"The Stephens family needs a violent solution."

"..."

Len Hawthorne sighed.

Chloe got into the passenger seat, looked at the man in the driver’s seat, and asked, "Have you settled your own matters?"

"Someone has come to take over my part, so I don’t need to be bothered anymore. Rather, it’s the Stephens family that I’m more concerned about. So, I’ll assign a few people to help you."

"Fine."

Len looked startled, but then smiled, "Little Chloe didn’t stand on ceremony, which made big brother very happy!"

"Didn’t you say I should listen to you?"

Len recalled the terms for borrowing money in the first place, and smiled again, "Yeah, I’m still Little Chloe’s creditor!"
