Slaughter Squad.
Beatrix Williams and Ethan Coates returned, exhausted, to report the results from all directions to Len Hawthorne.
"Mr. Hawthorne, it’s not just the Hawthorne Family targeting our Slaughter Squad anymore, but there are also signs of action from the Watsons Family. We now suspect these two families may want to join forces and cause trouble," Beatrix summarized her observations.
Ethan Coates nodded in agreement to Len, "Indeed, there is movement starting from the Watson’s side. Even though they do not have a unified approach yet, I believe it won’t be long before they might team up."
After Calvin Lawson’s death, Len Hawthorne needed to give a reason for his death. The news just announced online that international superstar Calvin Lawson died in a shipwreck, instantly setting off a frenzy in the entertainment circle.
The forces behind Calvin Lawson were bound to expose themselves.
Len Hawthorne was preparing to send people to monitor every direction. He should initially have taken a trip to the Land of the Prophet in Western Europe but was worried that leaving Chloe alone in the Imperial Capital might create other problems by the time he returned.
After confessing his feelings to the girl, he, as the not-yet-official boyfriend, couldn’t possibly go anywhere else anymore.
Plus, with the Godfrey Family all over Chloe, Len Hawthorne had to keep a close eye on her.
Otherwise, if she were to get kidnapped one day, he would have nowhere to cry but himself.
Thinking about his fate, Len Hawthorne sighed.
Indeed, love was sweet yet tormenting.
"Mr. Hawthorne? What’s on your mind? We are discussing important matters here, are you daydreaming?" Ethan Coates nudged him and rolled his eyes at him.
Len Hawthorne gave him a glance, "You and Beatrix go handle the situations outside. I’ll be responsible for here."
"Mr. Hawthorne, are you planning something since you’re trying to dispatch all of us away?" Ethan asked suspiciously.
Along with Jimmy Turner, several other team leaders had been sent away, without taking into account whether they wanted to work outside or not.
Len narrowed his phoenix eyes, speaking sternly, "The matters here in Imperial Capital, it’s time to wrap all of it up."
Ethan and Beatrix exchanged glances, worry flashed in both of their eyes.
Len’s words referred to the Hawthorne Family.
"You guys will decide the personnel deployment."
Both of them: "..."
Does this mean that the Imperial Capital doesn’t need to set up defense lines?
Without the defense line, people both in and outside the Imperial Capital could fly like birds freed from a cage.
This might spell chaos for the Imperial Capital!
"The lines behind Calvin Lawson are critically important, you must dig further into it."
Picking up his keys, Len left.
Ethan quickly followed, "Mr. Hawthorne, let’s go together!"
If he’s rushing off this early, there must be a problem.
Len pointed to Beatrix behind him, "You guys can discuss and decide before proceeding."
Ethan: "..."
Beatrix smirked, "What, planning to discuss it in my room tonight?"
"...Please, no." Ethan responded, laughing awkwardly.
"So why are you rushing now?"
"I’m not rushing, I just feel something’s off with Mr. Hawthorne, so I just..."
"Mr. Hawthorne has his own private life, why are you meddling so much?"
Ethan retorted, "What private life could he possibly have? He’s just going out there to show off in his car."
"So what if he’s a strong figure? He can’t have a personal life? Ethan, your vision is getting worse, need to schedule an appointment with Dr. Long?"
Ethan scowled, "Why are you cursing me for no reason?"
Beatrix sighed, "Why are you always hounding Mr. Hawthorne?"
Ethan: "..."

As Chloe and Austin Godfrey came out, they saw a devilishly handsome man, bathed in smoke, standing by the car and watching them with his eyes half-closed.
The deep phoenix eyes took on an icy chill, shooting straight at Austin Godfrey, the seemingly unimpressive individual.
Striding over with his long legs and after just a few steps, Len arrived next to Chloe and gave her an affectionate hair-ruffling gesture.
Austin met the gaze of the handsome man expressing strong possessiveness and turned to Chloe saying, "Please inform me of any actions."
He gave a slight nod toward Len and walked away with long strides.
As he watched the car leave, Len turned around, looking at Chloe with a seemingly amused expression, "Little Chloe, what secrets are you discussing? Even big brother is not allowed to know?"
Chloe Stephens glanced at him and looked him up and down, "Are you jealous?"
"Yep, elder brother is indeed jealous!" Blunt people were good in that they said things straight away.
"..."
"Since elder brother admitted it, aren’t you going to explain to alleviate elder brother’s jealous heart, Little Chloe?"
Len Hawthorne smiled and stared at her, waiting for her explanation.
Chloe countered: "Should I explain?"
"..."
Alright, she did not even consider him as her boyfriend at the moment, so indeed, Chloe didn’t need to explain anything to him.
Len Hawthorne felt depressed.
"Does the Slaughter Squad have lots of free time?" Chloe gave him a glance, seeing him look depressed; it gave her a strange sense of pleasure.
"Usually, I would want to deal with stuff in Western Europe before coming back, but seeing Austin Godfrey here, elder brother is very worried," Len Hawthorne said half jokingly and half seriously. "I’m really afraid that one day, Little Chloe will be taken over by someone from the Godfrey family. No matter who it is, elder brother would be heartbroken."
Chloe’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, "I remember you told me to have a good time at the Research Institute."
He’d forgotten just like that.
She had prepared not to see him for a while, yet he appeared in less than half a day.
Looking around.
How could he have found out so soon that she was here? He must have sent someone to watch her.
His large hand rested on her head; Chloe was practically in his arms. Len Hawthorne was smoking while staring at her, "Actually, it’s the mobile phone. If you feel it’s bothering you, you can remove it."
Chloe lowered her eyes.
Feeling the warmth of the hand on her head.
"Let’s go, elder brother will take you to the Hawthorne’s."
"Now?"
"To see Granny. Want to meet her?" Len Hawthorne asked with a smile, but the hope resided in his gaze.
Meeting parents, this kind of thing, appeared very delicate in a romantic relationship.
Chloe nodded her head.
She got into his car first.
Seeing Chloe’s calm demeanor, Len Hawthorne gave a helpless smile.
Did Little Chloe get it or not?
Chloe sat in the passenger seat, her hand rested where the mobile phone was placed. Through her clothes, she could feel the outline of the phone.
Thinking of the first time she received a mobile phone from him, then thinking about why she didn’t discard the mobile that had a tracker in it?
Or maybe, why didn’t she remove it?
She knew a long time ago that this thing was hidden in the mobile phone.
But she always chose to forget this part.
After forgetting it for a long time, she forgot that this thing was even inside her mobile phone.
Len Hawthorne’s reminder just now suddenly made her heartbeat skip a half beat.
She vaguely understood what it was.
She kept silence during the journey.
Although Len Hawthorne kept glancing at her occasionally, he didn’t say anything more.
It felt strange when someone who used to chatter all the time suddenly became quiet.
"Here we are. I’ve called Granny. Let’s get in through the north entrance," the car was parked outside; they did not drive into the Hawthorne Family premises.
The Hawthorne home.
As Kiera Herrington happily hung up the phone, she found the most beautiful cheongsam from that era, put it on and waited for Chloe and Len Hawthorne to come back.
At that time, Steve Hawthorne suddenly came in and was stunned to see Kiera Herrington suddenly wearing the cheongsam from that era.
Kiera Herrington tidied up her smiling face: "Why did you come here?"
Steve Hawthorne reluctantly cleared his throat, his voice softened a lot: "Kiera, why did you suddenly dress up like this? However, you are just as beautiful as you were before!"
It was clear to the naked eye how much Steve Hawthorne loved Kiera Herrington!
Kiera Herrington replied, "Len is bringing someone home! Of course, I need to dress more formally!"
Steve Hawthorne’s face changed when he heard this, "So, you dressed up like this for that kid? What nonsense! Change this dress, it doesn’t suit you at all."
