Chapter 39: Like a Vulture Feeding on Carrion!
“The limit of the Luminescence stage?”
David Chester on the other end of the phone was clearly taken aback, and ultimately couldn’t help but mock.
“What, you’ve heard of the Luminescence stage limit?”
“It seems you’re not only good in bed, but you also know a thing or two about cultivation.”
Bella’s pretty face was instantly covered in frost.
She asked coldly.
“So, there really is such a thing as the Luminescence stage limit in cultivation?”
David Chester scoffed.
“This legendary realm is utterly unattainable. If it were possible, I alone would be the only one in the world capable of reaching it!”
Bella sneered inwardly.
Jun Chester was the real deal, but you…
You’re an idiot!
Jun Chester had already reached that realm seven years ago, while you haven’t even touched the threshold.
And now, you’re still boasting here!
As Bella sneered in her heart, David Chester spoke again.
“Enough, I won’t waste any more words with you.”
“In two hours, I’ll be boarding the plane, and tomorrow, I’ll arrive in Dirtmouth.”
“At that time, clean yourself up and wait for me!”
“As for that bastard, he’d better kneel before me in front of everyone tomorrow!”
“Hand over the inheritance rights of the Chester family to me!”
“Otherwise, I’ll make sure he dies a gruesome death!”
With that, David Chester hung up the phone.
Bella’s face contorted.
Jun Chester!
Unwilling to let her go!
David Chester!
What a beast!
What to do?
No matter what!
If they push me too far!
I’ll just leave!
I have plenty of money anyway!
Worst comes to worst, I’ll emigrate!
Can’t I hide?
But then she thought about it.
There was still a glimmer of hope!
Behind David Chester, there was an organization like Cinder Chapel!
But Jun Chester wasn’t a pushover either!
He managed to befriend the Supreme Lord of Lordran!
And even became the master of the Supreme Lord’s daughter!
He single-handedly defeated the alliance of sixteen nations!
What did that mean?
Behind Jun Chester was the entire Lordran!
She was going to take a gamble!
She would place all her bets on Jun Chester.
In the past, she had been blind!
From now on, she couldn’t be blind anymore!
With that in mind, Bella quickly removed her apron and rushed to Jun Chester’s side.
At this point, Blake Charlton and Woods Randall had already left.
They had all decided on the spur of the moment to brainstorm for the construction of the “Lordran National College.”
They had no time left.
They all wanted to help Jun Chester achieve his wishes as soon as possible.
So they didn’t think about staying for dinner and hurriedly left.
At this time, Jun Chester was on the phone with the mayor of Dirtmouth, Christopher Walsh.
He instructed him to seal off Chester Fortress as soon as possible so that Blake Charlton could proceed with project planning.
As Bella listened to the conversation between the two, her face was full of grief.
Was Chester Fortress going to be donated just like that?
Despite her reluctance, what could she do?
The man before her was no longer the fool who only knew about cultivation years ago.
He was…
A legend!
Perhaps even Bella hadn’t realized it.
She had already developed a distorted admiration for Jun Chester’s strength.
In her eyes, every decision Jun Chester made was correct.
Standing by his side, she couldn’t go wrong.
When Jun Chester hung up the phone, Bella immediately reported eagerly.
“Jun, I have something to tell you.”
Jun Chester didn’t even look at Bella, and his tone was indifferent.
“What, are you going to cry and beg for my mercy again?”
Bella’s face turned red.
“No.”
Jun Chester couldn’t be bothered with Bella and coldly informed her.
“Christopher Walsh has already given the order. They are going to seal off Chester Fortress today.”
“You and everyone else, leave this place as soon as possible!”
Although Bella was very reluctant, she didn’t say anything in protest. Instead, she lowered her stance even further.
“From now on, whatever you say goes, you’re in charge!”
“But don’t be in a hurry to leave. Listen to me, just now David Chester sent me a list.”
“David Chester is bringing many world-class dignitaries to attend your father’s funeral tomorrow. He also said that at that time, you should kneel before him, and then he will kill you!”
A glint of coldness flashed in Jun Chester’s eyes.
“Clown!”
Bella added again.
“As far as I know, David Chester is now backed by an organization called Cinder Chapel.”
“And, David Chester is a cultivator too. He reached the Harmonization stage three years ago.”
“You… You need to be careful tomorrow.”
At that Bella handed over her phone to Jun Chester.
Jun Chester hesitated for a while and took the phone.
He didn’t care at all, but looked at Bella.
“Are you trying to take credit for this?”
Bella was slightly startled, unable to imagine that Jun Chester could be so nonchalant. Even though he knew about David Chester’s support from Cinder Chapel and his actions, he remained so calm!
Behind this…
Bella took a deep breath.
“I just want a chance to make up for it.”
“Moreover, over the years, it was David Chester who had been the mastermind behind the theft and sale of the national treasures stored in Chester Fortress.”
“I know that without my consent, David Chester wouldn’t have had this opportunity, but please, for the sake of my sincere remorse, let me go this time…”
Jun Chester’s face was expressionless as he spoke softly.
“I understand.”
With that, Jun Chester was about to leave.
But Bella mustered her courage and stood in front of Jun Chester.
“Jun, I just made a lot of dishes, please have some before you go. I want to apologize to you, any way you want.”
Jun Chester suddenly remembered what Bella had done at the ancestral hall before.
“How shameless of you!”
Bella looked pitiful.
“Jun, I have no other intentions, and besides, you saved Ann. Just for that alone, I could never harbor any ill will towards you again!”
Jun Chester snorted coldly and left with a wave of his sleeve.
Bella stared blankly at Jun Chester’s retreating figure, not knowing what she was thinking.
She sighed softly and muttered to herself.
“Will you really not forgive me?”
“But no matter what, if Lyvia can do it, so can I!”
As soon as Jun Chester left.
All the departments of Dirtmouth arrived on the scene.
Overnight, the entire Chester family moved out!
Everyone in the Chester family, except for Bella, hated Jun Chester to the core.
And the news of the Chester family’s lockdown spread throughout Dirtmouth overnight.
Major families, especially those business rivals that the Chester family had established over the years, all had their own interpretations of the matter at this moment.
According to the news broadcast by the TV station, yesterday morning, the Supreme Lord personally arrived in Dirtmouth, and it was clear that the Chester family was in trouble!
After all, the Chester family’s theft of national treasures was unforgivable!
Before this, Jun Chester was wanted throughout the city.
Several things combined made it easy for people to misunderstand.
At the moment, the news of the Chester family’s downfall was setting off a frenzy in the city, attracting a lot of attention to Wilfrid Chester’s funeral!
And every single one of them, without exception, were big shots from various industries.
And their current mood could be summed up in one phrase.
Sad on the face, happy in the heart.
Wilfrid Chester died suddenly!
It was said that he died at the hands of his own son, Jun Chester!
It was a delight to the people!
The collapse of the trillion-dollar Chester Group would benefit each of them.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
In a very short time, the bosses of the major financial groups had all rushed to the scene, some even driving themselves.
They were afraid of being late and having this easy piece of cake snatched away by others!
Like vultures feeding on carrion.
But they forgot that although Wilfrid Chester was dead.
The Chester Group belonged to Jun Chester.
