Chapter 745

Clarence and his family packed their belongings and rushed to the airport two days later, in the wee hours of themorning.

Almost all of their assets in the country have been drained in the last few days. However, it fell far short ofmaking up for the 8 billion shortfall.

Knowing Jean, their fate would have been sealed if they stayed any longer. They considered fleeing.

They may be able to make a comeback if they can transfer their money overseas, particularly to Huspela.

With this in mind, they acted covertly, convinced that their plan was flawless.

That night, they chartered a plane in the hopes of getting away from Jean before he found out.

Unfortunately, police had been hiding in the shadows in the main hall and ambushed them as soon as they enteredthe lobby.

This episode took Clarence by surprise.

"You..." novelbin

Two officers grabbed him before he could ask what was going on. His face contorted in pain as his arm wastwisted behind his back.

Both Jonas and Vanessa froze in fear.

As soon as Clarence realized what was happening, he became enraged, struggling, and yelling, "What are you

doing? What gives you the right to just pick people off at random in broad daylight?"

"Let me go! Do you know who I am? How dare you touch me? Let me go!"

He acted and talked arrogantly, as though he were above everyone else.

The cops remained unmoved.

Jean took a step forward at this time. He wore a custom-made suit that accentuated his tall stature and nobledemeanor. He exuded a regal aura, as if he were a king.

He walked straight to Clarence and stopped in front of him with an indifferent look.

Indifferently, he looked at him and said, "Uncle Clarence, we haven't seen each other for a few days. I hopeeverything is going well for you."

Clarence was stunned and then enraged.

"What are you trying to accomplish? I'm your uncle, and I'm warning you. Do you not worry that people willjudge you harshly if you do this to me?"

He glared menacingly at him, his face contorted with rage. He threatened, "You're so ruthless to your own kin. Doyou think you can hold onto your position?"

His accusations made no difference to Jean at all.

"You don't need to be worried about that. Consider how you'll spend your golden years behind bars instead of

worrying about what I did. Think about the type of coffin you'd like to be buried in. I promise to do everything inmy power to grant your final wishes because we are family."

Jean's tone was calm but cold, chilling to the bone.

Clarence was completely dumbfounded.

At that precise instant, he felt a cold creeping up from his feet, and goose bumps quickly spread across his entirebody. The man in front of him appeared to be the very embodiment of the King of Hell, a true devil.

Jonas, too, was taken aback, trembling with fear.

He nervously rubbed his hands, trying to plead, "Jean..."

"We messed up, but despite what my dad may have said, he's still your relative. Can you spare him for the sake ofus being family?"

Vanessa shivered all over. Her eyes had turned bright red.

"Yes, that's right. After all, he is your elder. It's quite unsightly to make such a big fuss, involving the police andall. What will people think of our family if word gets out? Your uncle screwed up, and he is aware of his mistake.Could you please let this go?"

As he listened to their pleading, Jean's expression grew colder by the second.

"Family? We're family, and you just realized it? Isn't it ironic that you mention this now? I did give him a chance,but he didn't appreciate it. He has gone to the extreme of wishing for my death. That leaves me no choice but to

strike back."

Having said that, he lost interest in continuing to talk to them and left.

Clarence fought hard but was unable to break free.

As he saw Jean get further away, he yelled, "Jean! Come back here! You can't do this to me; I'm your uncle! Ourfamily won't agree with this! Let me go now! Do you hear me?"

Jean didn't even bother to turn around.

Clarence's yells were in vain, no matter how loud they were.

...

The Beauvorts quickly learned of Clarence's arrest.

The following morning, Frederic and Wrenn, along with the two elders, hurried to Imperial Gardens.
