the two-faced Adopted Girl Who Melted CEO's Ice-Cold Heart
Chapter 1188: That Man Kills Without Blinking, He’s Simply a Devil
Griffith Squire finished speaking, put away the gun, held Aurora Coldwell’s hand, and with his handsome face set in a murderous expression, walked out steadily; wherever he went, no one dared to stop him, people’s eyes darted away, avoiding him like plague, leaving an open path.
As Griffith Squire left, behind him Cornelius Turner spun the dagger in his hand, and with a flick, the dagger flew past Mrs. Seymour’s neck, embedding itself into the wall, causing her eyes to roll back as she fainted from fright.
Cornelius Turner pulled out a mocking smile, his military boots stomping heavily on the ground, following Griffith Squire out.
The man stood tall and straight, remarkably skilled, with a buzz cut, surrounded by a fierce aura, and his every word and action hinted at traces of years of military training.
Seeing the two terrifying men depart, the crowd dared not breathe loudly nor whisper softly, exchanging glances with each other. So, Seymour Family had been humiliated so harshly, and offended such mysterious tough characters; how could they still survive in Brocade City?
"Mr. Seymour, all the hotel security personnel have been knocked out, completely unconscious, all the surveillance footage is down, and outside, the police have been stopped by someone." The hotel manager, sweating profusely, ran over and said.
The head of Seymour Family staggered upon hearing this, nearly fell.
As soon as Officer Fang heard his subordinates had arrived, his expression changed immediately, quickly phoning to say everything was fine and telling them all to go back.
The ambulance arrived quickly at the hotel, and the medical staff moved the fainted Mrs. Seymour and the unconscious young master of Seymour Family into the vehicle; Seymour Family’s birthday banquet ended before it even started.
The crowd dispersed quickly, not daring to linger, Coldwell’s origin Miss Brooke stood amidst the crowd, heading home pale-faced. It was too terrifying, she initially wanted to see Aurora Coldwell’s demise, but unexpectedly witnessed the downfall of Michael Seymour; that man was handsome yet malicious, killing without batting an eye, she wouldn’t like him after all.
As for Mrs. Coldwell who witnessed the whole process, she secluded herself at home due to illness after returning, no longer daring to trouble Aurora Coldwell. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
That night, the incident at Seymour Family’s birthday banquet spread throughout Brocade City, even reaching Imperial City.
The eldest Seymour lay in the hospital, unknown whether dead or alive, while the mute Coldwell Miss’s fiancé rose to become a bully in Brocade City, no one knew what happened, only two families nearly clashed, ah no, it was one-sided control, coming and going as they pleased, even Officer Fang dared not intervene.
Thinking of the Coldwell Miss at the scene, the crowd quickly filled in the plot: Seymour’s eldest forgot loyalty and abandoned Coldwell’s Aurora, Coldwell’s Miss Brooke returned powerfully, current boyfriend’s identity mysterious, wielding supreme power, beat up the scumbag. This plot surprisingly received unanimous praise, Seymour Family’s reputation falling to the ground, Griffith Squire’s violent behavior made countless Brocade City socialites’ hearts stir. Men like this, so powerful and commanding, really adorable.
The crowd speculated about Griffith Squire’s identity, waiting for Seymour Family’s follow-ups, but for several days, Seymour Family remained silent as if mute, not a single movement; it was reported that Michael Seymour escaped danger and woke up, but with multiple body fractures and internal injuries, even if not crippled, recovery would take several years.
Seymour Family had been domineering in Brocade City for years, yet suffered such a loss, still no movement, everyone sensed an unusual atmosphere, growing more cautious of Griffith Squire.
Once Brocade City’s event reached Imperial City, Richard Shaw naturally heard about how Griffith Squire arrogantly crippled a young master and called him a bastard.
The man didn’t even furrow his brows; if he could be with Leah, he could ignore Griffith Squire’s verbal abuse every day. This is the resilience of an Imperial City Major General.
Richard Shaw couldn’t wait for trouble to pile up in Brocade City; this way, does Griffith Squire still have the energy to come to Imperial City to ruin his relationship with Leah?
But against wishes, after Brocade City’s warning incident, the major families kept quiet, didn’t stir trouble, even Officer Fang lamented that work decreased greatly, Griffith Squire swaggered north to Imperial City.
Recently, Leah visited the Shaw Family during the day, taking care of the Shaw family’s grandmother, then drove back to Delphine’s small villa after dinner.
Richard Shaw went to the military district to handle affairs during the day, rarely at home, only returned in the evening to spend brief time with Leah, then sent her back. Recently, the man learned new dating skills: following WhatsApp and Weibo interactions, dating slowly, boosting favorability.
Delphine’s first directed film was set for release on the fourth day after the year, returning after years away from the entertainment sector, it was crucial as a director; Leah opened a Weibo account for supporting Delphine, named "Delphine’s Bestie, Meow~", the avatar was a cute image of a puppet cat.
As a newbie fan, Leah initially wanted to use money to climb higher, but discovered the legendary tycoon in the scoop circle was Mr. Leclair.
This Mr. Leclair spent money without limit, even had a team planning daily expenses, if underspent, collective overtime on cold seats.
Leah’s inner thoughts felt like hell, haha, Ignatius Leclair simply shattered her worldview, not even changing his name, how could she, alone, compete financially against South Sea’s young Ignatius Leclair with a business empire? No matter how much money he spends, still unpopular.
After Leah started her Weibo, Major General Shaw also opened an account in passing, named "Leah’s Wood", whenever Leah posted, Richard Shaw would like and comment.
Since it was a newly opened Weibo, pathetically few followers, but Leah didn’t mind, casually posting a picture of newly done nails, with white, jade-like hands, each nail sporting an adorable, delightfully cute kitten, utterly charming.
Leah posted the Weibo then tagged Delphine, Delphine casually commented: "Wow, so cats have always been your favorite."
Leah: "My favorite is you."
Leah’s Wood: "!!!"
Following the thread, Mr. Leclair: "Haha, you upstairs wood, can’t even compare to my woman, might as well commit seppuku."
Leah: "Come on, women love little Delphine, men love the wood."
Fed a mouthful of poison dog food, Mr. Leclair furiously spent money to support Delphine.
Leah’s Wood: "Haha, money isn’t all-powerful, emotions only exchanged for true sincerity."
Here, tagged the crazily spending Mr. Leclair.
Bandit Leader: "Wait till I come to deal with you all~"
Those chatting heatedly under Weibo were instantly struck like by lightning, seeing the user named Bandit Leader, clicked in, saw clearly written "Fair Trade, Honest for All", instantly fleeing like beasts, oh my, Griffith Squire that bandit leader also played Weibo?
Already in Imperial City, Griffith Squire narrowed his peach blossom eyes, tossed aside the phone, and sneered coldly.
