Chapter 374: Chapter 347: In the Stephens Family, what matters is strength (1 more)

As soon as they appeared in the bustling area of Sheffield City, despite their low profile, the Godfrey Family’s movements were still being observed by someone.

Austin Godfrey managed to avoid Len Hawthorne rather than engaging in a direct confrontation.

After evading Len Hawthorne, he looked for a place to stop.

Len Hawthorne stood on the rooftop of the grand building, scanning the surroundings, only going downstairs after confirming that the hidden person had left.

A team member ran up.

"Team Hawthorne? Did someone come in?"

They had also sensed the fluctuations just now.

The other party must be among the top experts.

Len Hawthorne’s eyes narrowed slightly, his tone suggestive, "That Qi felt very familiar, it was most likely from the Godfrey Family."

"Godfrey Family!" The team member inhaled sharply, "Is the large family of the Imperial Capital about to make a move?"

Could their Slaughter Squad withstand it if it were true?

"The other party likely wants to investigate the incident that night," Len Hawthorne took out a lighter, played with it for a while, and said, "I did not sense any malice, they probably just want to investigate our Slaughter Squad."

"Team Hawthorne, are you willing to let this go?"

"As long as they have no ill intentions, we will not bother them for now."

Don’t provoke them. If they are provoked, even the Godfrey Family won’t be spared.

Under the night light.

Austin Godfrey suddenly looked up.

On the road above, at the railing position, a girl was standing.

The girl had a cold temperament, and even the way she looked at people seemed to be filled with cold air.

He looked at the black cat beside her.

Austin Godfrey was momentarily taken aback.

At first glance, it was clearly not an ordinary cat.

Chloe Stephens looked down at the person below, who seemed to have fought with someone just now, judging from his fluctuating Qi.

"Meow."

The black cat suddenly leaped onto the railing, its black and purple eyes fixed on him.

It gave off a dangerous aura.

Austin Godfrey nodded slightly to the girl and then continued walking forward.

It seemed like he was just passing by.

Watching the man who left with a trail of light, Chloe Stephens’ dark eyes narrowed slightly.

"Meow."

The black cat walked a few steps forward, seemingly restless.

Her fair hand grabbed its neck and picked it up to leave.

"He’s not the person below."

"Meow!"

The black cat struggled in her hand.

Chloe Stephens let go of it and stared emotionlessly at the cat, "You can follow him now."

"Meow."

The cat’s eyes dimmed, and it slowly lay down on the ground.

"Ding!"

Three silver needles suddenly pierced the ground right in front of the black cat’s eyes.

"Meow!!"

The black cat’s fur stood on end, and its body bent as the whole cat leaped up.

"Let’s go."

"Meow..."

It followed dejectedly with its body lowered leisurely.

Ella Stephens sat on the bed.

Staring at Elliot Xenos sitting in front of the bed.

She spoke her request one word at a time.

Elliot Xenos wrote it down. "I will convey Miss Ella Stephens’s request, and the family leader will consider it."

Ella Stephens’s figure leaned forward, anxiously saying, "No."

Elliot, who was partway standing, sat back down. "Miss Ella Stephens, there is no precedent for this kind of matter. If we give in to you now, how would we deal with others in the future? The death of an elder does not guarantee that younger generations can still inherit everything. In the Stephens Family, real strength is what matters most."

Hearing this, Ella scoffed without holding back. "What about Building 3 then? What of that?"

Elliot stared at her seriously, solemnly saying, "That is a privilege of being the family leader. If they don’t even possess this small advantage, who would fight for the position of family leader? If your grandfather had become the family leader, you, as his granddaughter, would also enjoy these privileges."

Ella sneered, "It’s nothing but an excuse."

Elliot Xenos stood up. "This matter will be discussed at a higher level meeting. Please wait for good news, Miss Ella Stephens."

As soon as Elliot left, Ella clenched her fists in anger. "Why should they have the power to decide everything?"

Sophia Fox came up and comforted her, "Don’t be angry. Don’t be angry. We agreed to take good care of your health."

Ella knew that if she died of anger, the people in Building 3 would benefit.

So, she had to endure all the unwillingness for now.

"Is there really no way for GrandFather? We can ask the Taylor family for help. Maybe they have some solutions."

Taylor’s medical skills were so advanced that they must have a way.

Sophia Fox hesitated, "We hardly have any say in Building 10 nowadays."

Ella suddenly said, "I’ll call the Fishers. They will definitely help us invite people from the Taylor Family."

"As the future son-in-law, Filbert Fisher should indeed help us," Sophia believed that Filbert’s affections for Ella would have him bring someone from the Taylor Family to help them.

When Filbert received Ella’s call, he was momentarily bewildered.

It seemed as if Ella never actively called him.

Tomorrow was the agreed time to meet, and he was quite anxious. At this moment, receiving Ella’s call didn’t bring him the joy he imagined.

Nevertheless, he patiently spoke to her.

When Ella finished speaking, Filbert was stunned.

"Your grandfather was severely injured!"

Who had the ability to do this?

Filbert’s first reaction was that it was the work of someone within the Stephens Family.

Ella gripped her mobile phone, "Fil, please help me."

Filbert hesitated, "But the Taylor Family has withdrawn. Even if we ask for their help, it’s unlikely they’ll agree."

"Just give it a try, please," Ella’s voice trembled. "I wouldn’t have asked you if I wasn’t desperate. I know you’ll definitely find a way. This is the first time I’ve asked you for help. Please, just this once."

Filbert’s heart softened, "Alright, I’ll try, but I can’t promise anything."

"Thank you! I’m glad that you’re willing to help me. Thank you, Fil. By the way, how are things over there? Have you resolved the issue with Riley Downing you told me about last time?" Only then did Ella remember to ask about his situation.

Filbert’s expression darkened. He looked towards his father’s room and kept his grievances to himself. "I’ll take care of Fisher Family issues, so don’t worry. We’ll definitely find a solution."

"Okay!"

After hearing Filbert agree to help, Ella finally relaxed.

As soon as the call ended, Filbert called the Taylor Family.

The call was answered by Owen Taylor’s assistant, who immediately refused when Filbert mentioned the consultation. "The Taylor Family cannot be involved in any external activities at the moment. Please understand, Fisher Family."

"You only need to make one consultation, I can-"

"I’m sorry, the Taylor Family always adheres to our own words. Please do not make things difficult for us."

After saying this, the assistant hung up the phone.

Filbert’s veins throbbed on his forehead.

Even the Taylor Family’s assistant dared to hang up on him. This was only the beginning, and if they learned about his father’s situation, wouldn’t they be treated like dirt?

Filbert clenched the mobile phone even harder, becoming even more resolved to find a Western European witch.

"Young Master, something’s wrong with your father," Zachary Fisher’s assistant came out with a grave expression.

Filbert’s expression changed, and he hurriedly ran inside.

His father, Filbert Fisher, was convulsing and in pain.

"Dad...Dad..."

Filbert tried to speak, but he couldn’t get a single word out.

Filbert was at a loss, frantically dialing the number. However, no one answered, and he slammed the mobile phone onto the table in frustration, breaking it in half with a loud crash.
