King's Awakening

As soon as Old Madam Jones and the others saw Will Jones, they greeted him ravenously. In a fit of impatience, Old Madam Jones exclaimed, “Will, can you explain what is going on? How on earth did that White Mitchell manage to escape from the Weidens?”

Amanda from the side also couldn’t help but ask, “Yeah, Will, are you sure you saw it right? The Weiden family came so aggressively this time that they have taken over the whole Sayon armed forces.

They even invited the Twelve Flying Tigers from the military, with such a massive backing, how could White Mitchell have escaped alive?

This can’t be possible, right?”

With all the questions from Old Madam Jones and Amanda, Will Jones shook his head emphatically, “I’m absolutely sure of what I saw. White Mitchell didn’t die; he’s still alive and well.”

“Dad, what about those people from the Weiden family? How could they possibly just let White Mitchell escape like that?” Snowden Jones also couldn’t help but ask.

“How would I know! However, I’ve already asked a friend to find out. We should receive some news soon.” Will Jones responded irritably.

Upon hearing this, the three from the Jones family couldn’t help but feel tense.

At this moment, Amanda couldn’t help but speak up, “Will, I have a bad feeling about this. How come that boy White Mitchell, despite having no power or status, always manages to turn the tide, emerging stronger from adversities?

Is there something we don’t know about him? For instance, could White Mitchell be the illegitimate child of some powerful person? Or perhaps, he wasn’t in jail during his five-year disappearance; he was doing something else?

Otherwise, why would all the people in Sayon who want to deal with him fail every single time?”

Upon saying this, Amanda became visibly uneasy, her whole demeanor embodying a sincere fear.

If White Mitchell really had such a colossal background, then their family’s constant pressure on him was like courting death?

More importantly, if the Jones family overlooked a treasure without realizing it and sought connections elsewhere, weren’t they shooting themselves in the foot?

After hearing this, Old Madam Jones also fell silent.

Amanda’s words made sense. Considering it carefully, it did seem plausible.

It seemed like only such a possibility could explain all the bizarre events that had taken place recently.

However, Will Jones brushed off these guesses immediately after hearing them. Showing a disgusted expression, he scolded Amanda, “Ridiculous! Shut up! Stop spreading alarmist talk here!

How many times have I said, if White Mitchell had such a colossal background, would he be in this current desperate situation?

If I were him, I would’ve taken back the Imperial Group already.”

Upon hearing this, Amanda’s eyes dodged, but she couldn’t help but mutter, “Who knows whether the Imperial Group is under his control now? After all, Alan Austin has been out of scene for so long, no news has leaked out.”

“Shut your…” Will’s face turned black, but just as he was preparing to scold Amanda, his phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

Exasperated, Will took out his phone and glanced at it. Then he brusquely said to Amanda, “I’ll deal with you later, shut your mouth for now!”

After that, Will answered the phone call.

“Huh? Really? So that’s what happened? Fucking hell, that kid’s luck is incredible! Alright, I’ll let you go for now, I’ll treat you to a drink tonight.” Will quickly ended the call.

“Will, was it your friend bringing news? What happened? Did they figure it out?” Old Madam Jones promptly asked.

At her query, Will Jones nodded, and then glared at Amanda, “What a load of crap about his background, from now on, don’t fucking mention this in our house.”

My friend just mentioned this, the issue with the Weiden Family was personally resolved by the Highest Commander of Military Department. It was due to Jeremiah Weiden’s plan to avenge with the Twelve Flying Tigers personally, that infuriated the Highest Commander of Military Department.

Based on your claims, are you suggesting that White Mitchell’s connections are so extensive, he could get the Highest Commander of Military Department involved? Ridiculous!”

Upon hearing this, Amanda instantly fell silent and stood aside gloomily, dare not to speak again.

Meanwhile, after hearing this explanation, Old Madam Jones felt a huge sense of relief.

If White Mitchell actually had such impressive leverage, this outcome would be too difficult to accept for her.

Now all is clear, White Mitchell is still the same old White Mitchell, a bastard of no worth or power.

Thinking of this, Old Madam Jones couldn’t help herself but said: “That bastard seems to have luck on his side, occupying more benefits than he deserves!”

First it was Myles, then it was Jeremiah Weiden, each time when it was about to witness White Mitchell being tortured to death, he always landed in some ridiculous luck. It was really infuriating.

Even if the Highest Commander of Military Department arrived a day later, White Mitchell would have been certainly killed.

Unfortunately, there’s no ‘what if’s, they could only reluctantly accept this reality.

But after Old Madam Jones finished her rant, Mori Jones next to her couldn’t help but sneer: “Mother, I don’t necessarily think it was just luck.

Don’t forget, our relatives from Capital City are arriving tomorrow, the military department must have gotten wind of this information and thought that bastard was part of our Jones family, hence the involvement of the Highest Commander of Military Department.

After all, our family heritage in Capital City spans a hundred years with vast wealth, they would at least show some respect to us.

Too bad, this ended up benefiting the bastard White Mitchell. It’s infuriating!”

Mori Jones said, his eyes blazed with jealousy, the fact that White Mitchell was able to escape death under such circumstance was more suffocating than eating the bitter fruit.”

To this, Old Madam Jones nodded in agreement and added quietly: “No worries, though that bastard has escaped death, he is as good as dead now.

Once the relatives from Capital City arrive tomorrow, the Nezzi new town project will be back in our hands.

Without this project, I want to see where else that bastard dare to flaunt!”

“Haha… with our relatives from Capital City supporting us, wouldn’t we, the Jones Family, truly become the rulers of Sayon?” Snowden excitedly chipped in.

“Indeed, the Bright Family is no match for us, I will have our relatives in Capital City find a suitable and distinguished young man for you.” Old Madam Jones replied with glee.

Snowden was over the moon upon hearing this.

Suddenly, the entire Jones Family was filled with joy and delight.

Time flew to the next morning.

Everyone in Jones Family put on their finest attire, carefully applied makeup, tidying up the entire residence meticulously.

Meanwhile, Mori Jones took a luxury car borrowed from a friend and drove straight to the airport.

Not long after, two figures, an old and a young, appeared in front of Mori Jones.

“This is the car you’re driving?” The young woman glanced at Mori’s BMW and uttered in disdain.

“I….” Mori Jones was just about to explain when the young woman interjected: “No excuses. Take me to Jones Family. Oh, and get Sherry Jones to come see me.

If I don’t see her within an hour, she will have to deal with the consequences herself!”
