Chapter 234 Julia’s Tears
When they heard Sean’s voice and finally saw him, everyone’s faces lit up with joy. However, when they noticed the un-dried bloodstains on Sean’s body and the bag still dripping with blood in his hand, everyone was dumbfounded the next moment.
Especially Julia!
Suddenly, Julia thought of something. Her complexion changed dramatically, her red lips slightly parted, and her beautiful eyes flashed with an indescribable sense of shock. Her petite body couldn’t help but tremble slightly!
Sean…
Had he really done it?
“I’m sorry.”
Under the stunned gazes of the crowd, Sean smiled lightly, holding the bloody head and walked towards the banquet, saying as he walked, “The night in the capital is nice, so I went out for a stroll.”
“Accidentally, I got this head…”
As he spoke, Sean arrived at the banquet table and handed the head to Julia, indicating, “Your Highness, the princess should be quite interested in this head. So, I brought it back with me.”
“Please accept it as a gift for our meeting.”
His casual words made it seem as if the bloody head was something he had accidentally picked up, no different from finding ten dollars on the street or picking up a lost cell phone.
And moreover!
A gift??? A bloody head?
Seriously!?
These young men and women present, since they could be Carl’s friends, they naturally came from the most prominent families in this city – genuine wealthy children with extensive experience.
But a human head as a gift was something they had never seen before!
Julia stared intently at the bloody head in Sean’s hand without flinching, her face showing no fear, but an indescribable tension and excitement!
When Sean turned it over, and she saw those wide-open eyes, tears that had been spinning in Julia’s beautiful eyes finally broke free, wetting her lovely, fair cheeks!
Dillard Jefferson!
It was really Dillard Jefferson!
For this face, Julia felt etched in her heart and bones, filled with hatred!
“Is this…”
“Dillard Jefferson???”
“Damn!”
“Mr. Mason, you…”
“You went and killed Dillard Jefferson???”
The young men and women at the banquet table exclaimed in shock, their eyes wide, and when they looked at Sean again, their gazes were filled with indescribable awe!
That was Dillard Jefferson!
The former patriarch of the Jefferson family and a Complete Stage fighter!
Most importantly, Dillard Jefferson was not only Prince Ashby’s confidant but also highly regarded by Padishah. Otherwise, Padishah wouldn’t have easily agreed to Dillard Jefferson’s proposal to have Julia marry Fergus Archer!
And now…
Sean had just gone to the restroom, and then went to the Jefferson family to cut off Dillard Jefferson’s head???
My goodness!
How much courage must he have had?
Not to mention Prince Ashby’s reaction, once this matter reached Imperial City and Padishah’s ears, would Padishah spare Sean?
“Mr. Mason, thank you!”
As a member of the royal family and Padishah’s granddaughter, Julia naturally knew the severe consequences of Sean’s actions. After all, this was something that her father, Prince Adam, and her uncle Roscoe, wouldn’t dare to do easily!
Yet, Sean did it!
At this moment, the gratitude in Julia’s heart was beyond words!
She reached out to take the head, her tearful eyes fixed on Sean, and she bit her lip, saying solemnly, “Mr. Mason, you have avenged this great injustice for me, and I cannot repay you!”
“If Mr. Mason ever needs my help, I am willing to pay my life to help!”
It was no exaggeration to say that Dillard Jefferson’s proposal had ruined Julia’s happiness for a lifetime. After she went to South Forest, even her life might not be safe!
Therefore!
Sean’s killing of Dillard Jefferson was of great significance to Julia!
After saying this, Julia bowed deeply to Sean!
“Your Highness, you are too kind!”
Sean hurriedly said, “I am now a mere commoner and cannot accept such a grand gesture from Your Highness.”
“Besides…”
Sean said seriously, “My killing of Dillard Jefferson and eliminating the Jefferson family is mainly to avenge my friend Felix Maguire. It just so happens that Your Highness also has a feud with them.”
Sean was also somewhat worried upon hearing her words.
Before coming to the capital, due to Luna Porter’s interference, Sean had not been able to marry Cecelia with a marriage certificate. However, in his heart, he had long accepted Cecelia!
In this lifetime, he would marry no one but Cecelia!
Being away from home, he naturally didn’t want to get involved with other women. One Luna Porter was already enough to give Sean a headache. If he got too close to Julia, and Cecelia found out, he couldn’t imagine what she would think!
“Anyway, Mr. Mason, you have helped me so much!”
Julia didn’t care about that!
She did owe him!
However, Sean’s words stirred some emotions in her heart.
Was it just a coincidence?
Did it mean that if Felix Maguire hadn’t died, Sean wouldn’t have risked his life to kill Dillard Jefferson for her alone?From NôvelDrama.Org.
Without reason, Julia suddenly thought of the time before Padishah arranged her marriage to Fergus Archer. Her father and uncle had also requested Padishah to betroth her to Sean…
If Padishah had agreed at that time and really betrothed her to Sean, then what would their situation be like now?
Would Sean refuse?
“Alright.”
As Julia was lost in thought, Carl spoke, “Mr. Mason is our friend from now on. If he needs help, we will naturally support him wholeheartedly.”
“The most urgent matter now is for us to leave Jade Restaurant as soon as possible and just go back to my residence.”
“Prince Ashby might send people for Mr. Mason.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Prince Ashby was Prince Gerard’s father, and like Gerard, he was born with the arrogance of a royal family member. How could he tolerate Sean’s audacity to kill his right-hand man?
It was difficult to resolve this matter properly!
Sean glanced at Carl but shook his head, saying, “Prince Carl, I appreciate your kindness. After you return home, please convey my gratitude to Prince Roscoe.”
“As for going to your residence…”
After a brief pause, Sean continued, “There’s no need.”
“Oh?”
Carl asked in surprise, “Mr. Mason, what do you mean?”
Sean inquired, “I remember, Prince Carl, you said earlier that we are just making friends, and it’s not submitting, right?”
“Of course.”
Carl’s heart stirred, but he still nodded.
Sean said, “Whether I killed Gary Jefferson and Dillard Jefferson or eliminated the Jefferson family, these are personal issues. I alone am responsible for my actions. As a friend, I don’t want to involve Prince Carl and Prince Roscoe, affecting Prince Roscoe’s original plans.”
“But…”
Carl wanted to persuade him, but Sean didn’t give him a chance to speak, continuing, “Moreover, Prince Carl should know that I have my own business to attend to in the capital. I don’t want the confrontation between Prince Roscoe and Prince Ashby to affect my own affairs.”
What he meant was, we can be friends, but under the condition that I handle my own affairs and don’t involve you. In return, I won’t give up my own revenge plan to accommodate your interests!
After all!
Prince Roscoe had his own considerations and couldn’t let Sean act recklessly while handling the consequences for him. If Sean’s revenge plan conflicted with Prince Roscoe’s interests, what would happen???
Sean didn’t want to owe Prince Roscoe any favors, nor did he want to be restrained by Prince Roscoe!
“This…”
Carl’s expression changed.
