Chapter 486: Chapter 452: Unable to Marry and Have Children in a Lifetime (1 update)

"Initiating a fight in Dark City equates to a life-or-death duel. Don’t the Hawthornes even understand this rule?" Granny Hawthorne could not bear seeing her grandson treated so unfairly by the Hawthorne family members. With a cold face and frosty gaze, she swept her eyes over them.

The Hawthorne family members pulled rigid faces, turning away in irritation and walked a short distance away, waiting for Granny Hawthorne to settle things before leaving with her.

Seeing her grandson in such a state, Granny Hawthorne felt grieved, "I have to go back to the Hawthorne family."

"Granny, let me take you."

"Do you have things under control here?" Granny Hawthorne gestured towards the chaos behind him.

Len Hawthorne said to Ethan Coates, "Leave this to you."

Ethan Coates couldn’t wait for Len Hawthorne to leave Dark City right away to prevent further trouble, "Rest assured and accompany Granny Hawthorne back. I’ll handle the clean-up here."

He was worried that if Len Hawthorne continued to fight, even the ancient clans in Dark City might have to intervene.

In this world, there was no knowing how many top-notch experts were hiding in the shadows.

Granny Hawthorne did not let Len Hawthorne escort her back to the Hawthorne residence.

She was painfully aware of how ill-treated Len Hawthorne was by the members of the Hawthorne family and therefore couldn’t bear to let him face them again.

Although Len Hawthorne might not necessarily care.

Yet, it would inevitably discomfort him.

"Just see me off here, and go back to your own business, Len. No matter what happens, never allow yourself to become such a person."

Looking into Granny Hawthorne’s eyes, Len Hawthorne nodded earnestly.

"I won’t become the kind of person you don’t want to see," Len Hawthorne looked at a few of his uncles in the Hawthorne family and said, "I’ll trouble you to take care of Granny here."

The Hawthorne family members said nothing in response.

Regardless of Len Hawthorne’s instructions, they had to adequately protect Granny Hawthorne who was Steve Hawthorne’s most cherished woman.

"By the way, I went to see that little girl. She’s a quiet one. Kind and willing to help others. A good girl indeed, it’s just a pity that you can’t marry and have children in this lifetime..." Granny Hawthorne’s gaze dimmed, and she sighed uncontrollably.

Len Hawthorne was taken aback, "You went to see her?"

"Indeed, at the..." Granny Hawthorne swallowed back the words she was about to say.

She almost let the cat out of the bag and mentioned Chloe Stephens.

Len Hawthorne said, "Granny, you go ahead and leave first. I will go and thank her."

"Yes, you should. After all, she paid for my plane ticket and even escorted me to the airport personally. She’s a wonderful girl. You’d better not bully her."

"I won’t," Len Hawthorne watched Granny Hawthorne get in the car and leave, stood in place for some time before he returned to Dark City and regrouped with Ethan Coates.

In a short time, Ethan Coates had cleaned up the mess in the city, working quickly just as the Slaughter Squad was known to do over the years.

"People from Dark City are bound to come knocking. What’s your plan when that happens?" Ethan Coates walked over to Len Hawthorne’s side and asked.

Len Hawthorne squinted slightly and grinned, "You handle the women who come here, and I’ll handle the men."

Ethan Coates: "..."

"Team Hawthorne, someone from the common alliance is here, seemingly regarding the Hawthorne family’s pursuit issue. Do you want to meet them?" a team member approached from a distance and asked Len Hawthorne.

Len Hawthorne and Ethan Coates moved to a cleaner area. Upon hearing this, both of them exchanged a look.

"People from the common alliance rarely act. Why are they here this time?" Len Hawthorne said curiously.

The team member shrugged, "Perhaps they haven’t been active for too long and wanted to stretch their legs, only to run into Jade Hawthorne’s situation."

Len Hawthorne looked at Ethan Coates and said, "I’ll leave the common alliance matter to you."

Ethan Coates finally understood and was annoyed, "Didn’t we agree, women to you and men to me? The people who come from the common alliance are certainly men..."

The team member blinked and said, "Deputy Coates, the delegate from the alliance is a young female elder."

Ethan Coates: "..."

Len Hawthorne patted him on the shoulder, "There’s a long way to go, I have high hopes for you."

Ethan Coates grinded his teeth and said bitterly, "Scram."

Len Hawthorne, grinning, turned around and walked towards the exit, followed by a few people.

Ethan Coates went to work, grudgingly taking on the responsibility.

Chloe Stephens left the school, with Franklin Walter trailing behind her, offering a small cupcake, "They’re all occupied today, shall we head to the courtyard instead?"

After the recent incident, Franklin considered giving up his basketball dream.

So he had been declining the Youth Basketball Team’s invitations on the pretext of academics lately. He had harbored ambitions to advance internationally, but those plans changed quite a bit after witnessing that event.

"Can you cook fried rice?"

Franklin Walter: "..."

"Can’t you?" Chloe suddenly desired some fried rice.

"I’ve never cooked, I usually order takeout when I’m at the apartment," Franklin replied guiltily.

His family’s financial situation was sound, they were in business, and could easily afford a house in Sheffield City; it was apparent that their wealth was considerable.

Hence, Franklin never needed to cook at home. While he could fry some vegetables on occasion, making fried rice was beyond him.

Chloe pointed ahead, "Fried rice."

After entering the open-air food stall with Chloe, Franklin noticed their classmates turning to look at them while whispering behind their backs.

Franklin knew what they were discussing.

He lowered his voice and asked, "Was what happened that day a coincidence?"

"Yes."

"Even though the trending topic was taken down, and other topics were cleanly controlled, everyone still remembers. The incident had a significant impact on you," Franklin showed some concern.

Chloe calmly replied, "It didn’t affect me."

"This Calvin Lawson..." Franklin glanced around to ensure no one was listening, "what’s his deal, anyway?"

"Unknown."

"..."

Franklin understood that this wasn’t the appropriate venue for the discussion, so he dropped the subject.

He could tell that Chloe didn’t take very kindly to this Calvin Lawson.

Midway through their meal, Albert Webb called.

Chloe looked at the call display on her mobile phone screen without answering immediately.

"Who is it? Why aren’t you picking up?"

Chloe handed her mobile phone to Franklin, then bent her head to continue eating her fried rice.

Franklin reluctantly answered the phone, "Brother Webb, it’s me... Yes, we’re eating fried rice at the open-air food stall outside the school, want to join us? Okay, we’ll wait for you here."

Franklin hung up the phone and returned it to her, saying, "Brother Webb says he’ll join us, he’s nearby."

Chloe nodded.

"Why didn’t you answer the phone?" He had to answer it instead.

"Lazy."

Franklin was at a loss for words.

He picked up his spoon and resumed eating. After just two bites, several people suddenly appeared at their table.

Franklin slowly looked up and recognized the glum-faced boy in front of him, blinking in surprise, "Damian Silvester?"

Wasn’t this Damian Silvester they met at the clubhouse?

At that time, because of a girl named Sabrina Summers, Damian had a physical altercation with them, and as a result, he was sent to the hospital.

Did he come to find them straight after being discharged?

Franklin cast a glance at the bodyguards and companions behind Damian, speechless.

With a gloomy expression, Damian stared at both of them, "You’re Albert Webb’s companions, it’s best if you come with me now."

Chloe finished her last bite of fried rice, stood up, put her hands in her pockets, and walked outside.

Damian snorted coldly and followed her out.

Franklin left a note on the table and hurried to catch up.
