Female Novel
Chapter 864 He Will Definitely Come to Take Me Home
As soon as Jack’s words were uttered.
The atmosphere in the dining room became serious.
When Jack previously had the idea of going to Dragon Cavalry, everyone had already thought very
clearly about the pros and cons of going there after discussing.
Jack was also clear about the pros and cons so when the idea popped up in his mind, he quickly
dismissed the thought.
But, the battle three days ago made the current situation more dangerous and difficult.
Mysterious Man calmly said, “Going to Dragon Cavalry now is the only foolproof plan. Don’t forget that
even your father has to temporarily sit tight in this Bloody Trap.”
This sentence made Jack’s eyebrows furrow tightly.
Mr. Ward’s expression changed and he said with a deep voice, “Senior, is there really a need to be like
that?”
Being the trusted subordinate of Patrick and knowing clearly the enmity between Jack and Patrick who
had a father-son relationship.
Mysterious Man’s such sentence was undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire and this made Mr. Ward find it
distasteful.
“Going to Dragon Cavalry might also allow you to complete a metamorphosis.”
Mysterious Man directly ignored Mr. Ward and said calmly.
“What metamorphosis?” Jack asked.
Mysterious Man gently picked up a chopstick and casually knocked on the edge of the bowl. He smiled
teasingly, “For example…using a knife to block a bullet?”
Jack froze for a moment and then he laughed.
“Since senior says so, going to Dragon Cavalry is indeed the best choice now. There are even
additional benefits.”
“Young master…”
Mr. Ward had a complicated expression.
But before he finished his words, Jack raised his hand to interrupt him, “Stop saying, didn’t we discuss
this matter before? With the current situation, going to Dragon Cavalry is the best protection. If I still
stay here and rely on you guys, when there is another assassination like the one from Iga Clan,
perhaps the outcome…”
Jack did not finish his words. It was just that when it came to the end of his sentence, his voice was
obviously lowered and his face also darkened.
Amber, who was on the side, was having a complicated expression. She hesitated for a moment and
said, “Can I go with you?”
Jack turned his head and gazed at Amber.
In the end, he shook his head, “My trip this time is to join the army so it isn’t appropriate for you to go
with me. Also, I’m the source of the danger. If you follow me, you’ll be put in danger as well. I’ll let Mr.
Ward and the others send you back to your parents’ place if it is necessary to do so.”
His tone was firm and Amber was totally not allowed to refute.
Jack raised his hand and rubbed his face. He could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. His face
showed a painful look.
After he calmed down, he slowly said, “Help me to arrange it, Mr. Ward, I’ll go to Northern Territory
tomorrow morning. As for Zenith’s side, I’ll personally contact him.”
“Yes.”
Mr. Ward nodded and answered.
The dinner ended hurriedly.
Jack returned to his bedroom alone and contacted Zenith. Zenith immediately agreed to his request of
going to Dragon Cavalry without hesitation.
After hanging up the phone.
Jack sat in front of the window. Through the window screen, he could vaguely see the blurry moon
hanging high in the night sky. His lips curled and he revealed a meaningful smile.
Whereas, outside Bamboo Grove.
Mysterious Man and Mr. Ward were sitting opposite each other.
Mr. Ward was having a complicated expression but Mysterious Man looked unusually calm.
After a long while.
Mr. Ward smiled with emotion, “The battle three days ago has discouraged the killers from various
major forces. It’s rare that we can have a few days with peace.”
“They must be discouraged. Seeing Jack’s state that night, not to mention those killers, aren’t you and I
also scared and appalled?”
Mysterious Man twitched his lips, “Those killers come here to kill Jack, not to be abused and murdered
by Jack. The tragic state of the three Ninja lords should be enough to calm them down for quite a
while.”
Mr. Ward nodded and gazed at Mysterious Man, “In fact, I admire you very much. You surprisingly can
pull the young master back from the state of madness to normal by relying on your own strength. For
such great kindness, I thank you on behalf of the young master.”
“Just a word of thanks? You don’t have any real and useful thing for me?” Mysterious Man’s left index
finger gently traced the rim of the teacup in front of him. He smiled teasingly.
Mr. Ward was stunned. He asked, “What do you want then? You can just say directly, senior.”
In terms of age, Mr. Ward was certainly older than Mysterious Man.
But, the honorific title, senior at this time was determined based on the strength level.
Mysterious Man’s left hand gently scratched the rim of the teacup. He was seemingly hesitating and
also seemingly pondering.
After a long time, he smiled, “For example…your life?”
Once these words were uttered.
The atmosphere in the courtyard became abruptly serious and stern.
The smile on Mr. Ward’s face froze. His pupils constricted.
The two people looked at each other and it seemed like the time had frozen.
After a few seconds, Mr. Ward slowly said, “I only have an old and crippled body. If I can really ensure
young master’s peace and prosperity by sacrificing my life, I don’t mind giving up this crippled body to
go and die.”
His words were sincere and people absolutely would not doubt the truth of these words.
Mysterious Man, however, shook his head and sneered. He slowly got up, raised his hand and patted
Mr. Ward’s shoulder.
“I’m glad to hear such words from you. I won’t take your life, but in the future, Jack’s path is bound to
have a sea of thorns and blood and dry bones will be everywhere. Be mentally prepared for it.”
Finished speaking, he directly walked straight towards the outside of Bamboo Grove, “This is also
another reason why I let Jack go to Dragon Cavalry now.”
Mr. Ward who was sitting in front of the stone table was dazed and lost in thought.
Mysterious Man’s words were obviously having another meaning.
However, at this moment, Mr. Ward was also deeply confused and bewildered.
He was assigned by Patrick to stay at Jack’s side and his task was to assist Jack to compete for the
position of being the head of the Hughes family. But in the current situation now, it was obvious that
what Jack had to face was not only the family head position…
“Maybe you’re right. Letting the young master enlist in the standard army to feel the blood and battle
will let the young master have metamorphosis.”
After Mr. Ward regained his presence of mind, he smiled jokingly.
The weather was getting cooler.
The wind was also a bit chilly.
Mr. Ward wrapped his robe and turned back to look at the door of Bamboo Grove that had been
covered again.
Then, he got up and walked towards Jack’s room.
On the other hand.
After Mysterious Man left Bamboo Grove, he drove and left Four Impressions Club.
Under the dark sky.
The car was speeding and moving forward quietly on the road.
After moving around the city twice, Mysterious Man drove to the Longines Villa area.
At this moment.
Inside Longines Villa, it was lighted brightly.
Dejected, Amber was sitting in front of the window. Her delicate arm was supporting her chin and she
was blankly staring at the stars outside the window.
On the table behind her, there was a sumptuous dinner. There were three dishes and a soup and these
were considered a balanced diet.
But, the food at this time had long been cold. Amber did not eat at all.
Creak…
The door of the room was opened.
Mengpo walked in.
Not as cold as how she looked in the previous few days, now, she had apparently transformed into a
normal old woman.
Her face full of wrinkles was covered with peace and calm. She was giving the impression like the one
she gave to Amber when Amber first saw her.
After entering the room, Mengpo looked at the uneaten food on the table.
She frowned and glanced at Amber, “Amber, why do you do this?”
“You guys didn’t manage to catch him, did you?”
Amber did not even turn her head back. Her eyes, which were as brilliant as stars, flashed with a
resolute light as she spoke these words.
“So what?”
Mengpo shrugged, “If he really manages to survive, why hasn’t your man come to find you during this
period?”
Amber’s expression stiffened.
Mengpo continued, “One won’t necessarily be able to survive after escaping. If one dies after escaping,
the outcome is the same.”
In her words, there was a hint of brutality.
In Mengpo’s view, even if he was Hermes’ successor, it was already the limit for him to manage to
escape from her and Mysterious Man. It was only logical that he died on the street after escaping.
However.
Amber gritted her teeth and said firmly.
“My man won’t be so mediocre that he doesn’t even recognize who his wife is, he will definitely come to
take me home!”novelbin
