Legend of Dragon Son-in-law-Chapter 713 - Mr. Reed’s Invitation_1
Chapter 713: Chapter 713 Mr. Reed’s Invitation_1
Murdering someone in public?
And the head of the Leopold Family?
Keep in mind, the Leopold Family is currently the number one boss in Five-river Province!
Whitley Leopold’s status within the province is no less than that of Fabian Percival.
And now…
Someone actually stabbed him in public!
Maurice Yarrow was the closest to the incident.
Almost numbly, he wiped the blood off his face, nearly fainting to the ground.
“You…”
When Whitley Leopold turned his head and saw the assailant, he was completely stunned.

His grandson!
His own grandson!
Brayden Leopold!
At this moment, he was holding a bloody knife, his expression cold as ice.
“Old Mr. Leopold!”
Maurice Yarrow hurried to support Whitley Leopold, his body trembling uncontrollably.
“Pfft…”
Whitley Leopold spat out a mouthful of blood, shaking as he pointed at Brayden Leopold, “You… why… why…”
He couldn’t comprehend!
This was his own grandson!
“Grandpa, Atlas Leopold’s injuries are healing.”
Brayden Leopold licked the blood off the tip of the knife, a savage glint in his eyes, “With all my limbs intact, I couldn’t even get you to give me a proper look. But a disabled man has kept you in hopeful anticipation.”
“You beast…”
Whitley Leopold’s face turned pale, hanging on to his last breath.
“Go on your way. It won’t be long before your favorite grandson joins you down there.”
Splurt!
Brayden Leopold plunged the knife into Whitley Leopold’s body, leaned into his grandfather’s ear, and smirked, “When the Leopold family was struck with a heavy blow, it was I who betrayed you all.”
“Pfft!”
Whitley Leopold spat out another mouthful of blood, his eyes wide open as he leaned on Maurice Yarrow.
Dead.
His eyes open, unable to close in peace.
Everything was seemingly under control.
Yet in the end, he lost everything.
Defeated and laid low.
“I always said you’d die before me.”
Julius Reed shook his head with a smile, leaning back in his chair enjoying the show.
Today’s play is called ‘Ambush from Ten Sides’.
Aron Jackson considerately brought over a plate of sunflower seeds from someone else and poured another cup of tea.
He also found himself a small stool.
Time to watch the show!
“Brayden Leopold, you beast, killing even your own grandfather!”
Maurice Yarrow finally recovered from the shock and hurriedly pushed the corpse in his arms away, turning to the people of the Leopold Family and the Three Blade Group, “Follow me to execute this unworthy descendant!”
If he couldn’t kill Brayden Leopold, he himself would be in grave danger.
Fabian Percival had already lost control over his staff, and Maurice Yarrow could only rely on himself and nearly two hundred people brought by Whitley Leopold.
“Boss, you go ahead!”
Bridger Davenport came up from behind and said solemnly.
“My good brother! I knew you had a sense of loyalty!” Maurice Yarrow turned around, patted Bridger Davenport on the shoulder, “Boss goes first, you be careful here! I’ll call for backup once I get back, and I’ll make sure you’re safe and sound…”
Splurt!
In Bridger Davenport’s hand appeared a golden silk dagger.
The dagger pierced straight through Maurice Yarrow’s heart!
“Hiss…”
Maurice Yarrow’s eyes widened as he grabbed Bridger Davenport’s arm.
He collapsed slowly to the ground.
Perhaps it wasn’t until his dying moment that he understood what the phrase ‘you go ahead’ meant.
But.
It was already too late.
The scene once again fell into dead silence.
Even Brayden Leopold didn’t expect Bridger Davenport to suddenly act.
And to do it so decisively!
Keep in mind.
Within the Three Blade Group, Maurice Yarrow was the boss, and Bridger Davenport was the undisputed second-in-command.
His orders were followed without question.
Yet even so, Maurice Yarrow couldn’t escape a murderer’s fate.
After killing the man, Bridger Davenport leaned down and wiped the knife on Maurice Yarrow’s clothes.
Then he calmly tucked the dagger back into his waistband.
The entire process.
Was witnessed by everyone present.
Hearts were already in their throats.
“What the hell!”
Someone couldn’t stand the oppressive atmosphere any longer and stood up, bellowing at the top of their lungs!
Whoosh!
Fox Miller raised his hand with a hidden weapons box.
That person then fell straight to the ground.
“Anyone else want to leave?”
His eyes swept around the room, and the present guests all lowered their heads.
“Fox Miller, you’re really quite intimidating, aren’t you!”
Fabian Percival had a knife to his throat, but his eyes were fixated on Fox Miller.
He hated traitors the most!
Yet, it was precisely the traitors who had come knocking.
A deadly strike!
That recording completely crushed the morale of Fabian Percival’s employees.
It cooled their hot blood until they watched with cold eyes.
If it were any other time.
Even if he, Fabian Percival, was at someone else’s mercy!
A single command would have led to a desperate fight!
Who would dare defy him?
Even Elwood Thorneycroft would have obediently put down the knife.
However…
People’s hearts had gone cold.
The blood no longer boiled.
The brothers who once spilled their blood and gave their lives for him now quietly sat in their chairs.
Allowing themselves to be aimed at by Fox Miller with his box of hidden weapons.
Without uttering a word.
“Even if I, Fox Miller, am formidable, I am but a discarded piece of Mr. Thorneycroft,” Fox Miller wasn’t angry, but instead chuckled, “Since you don’t trust me and suspect my betrayal, well… I might as well just go through with it.”
“Since when.”
Fabian Percival closed his eyes and asked coldly.
“I never betrayed you,” Fox Miller looked at Fabian Percival, a rare serious expression on his face, “It’s you, who betrayed yourself!”
“The words of a traitor are always so fascinating.”
Fabian Percival took a deep breath and shook his head, “Enough! It is what it is! If it’s destined to rain, or if a woman is fated to marry. But you, you’d better think about the consequences.”
After speaking, he turned his head to look at Roosevelt Chide, “If I die, please recount the events of today truthfully to the Chide family.”
“The Chide family?”
Upon hearing this, the people present were stirred.
Could it be that there was a relationship between the two?
No wonder Chopter came in person to celebrate Fabian Percival’s birthday.
If it really was so, then Fabian Percival absolutely couldn’t die!
If he died, no one would be able to withstand the rage of the Chide family.
“Mr. Thorneycroft, what is your relationship with the Chide family?”
Someone stepped forward to ask.
This was of immense concern.
They might not care about Fabian Percival, but the Chide family, they were a commercial behemoth!
“When I was in the Americas, I always worked for the Chide family,” Fabian Percival looked calmly at Chopter, smiling, “Isn’t that right, Mr. Chopter?”
As these words were spoken, the people present became even more hesitant.
“I’m sorry, my coming here today wasn’t to wish you a happy birthday.”
Chopter suddenly spoke.
“What!”
Fabian Percival’s body shook, and his brows tightly knitted together, “Mr. Chopter, what are you talking about?”
It seemed…
That something was amiss!
Today’s Chopter had a cold look in his eyes.
As if he had become a different person.
“Today!”
Roosevelt Chopter stood up, his hands behind his back as he looked towards Fabian Percival, “I came here at Mr. Reed’s invitation. Whether or not it’s your birthday, Fabian Percival, has nothing to do with me!”
“What!”
Fabian Percival’s eyes widened in shock, even suspecting he had misheard.
Even Elwood Thorneycroft behind him found it somewhat incredible.
The matters in the Americas, she naturally understood.
It was the Chide family that Fabian Percival relied upon.
Now Chopter was drawing a line between them?
“Mr. Reed? Is it Ivan Reed, Sacha Reed from the capital?”
“Need you even ask! With all the Reeds at the table, apart from Sacha Reed, who else would be able to speak to the Chide family!”
“Who would’ve thought, today’s affair involves Ivan Reed! Indeed, Fabian Percival is still no match for Sacha Reed!”
Everyone speculated that it was because of Sacha Reed seeking vengeance that Chopter discarded Fabian Percival.
Only Elwood Thorneycroft woodenly turned her head, her gaze fixated on Julius Reed…
