âWhat? How could she be so cold?â
Hearing that the call had ended, Beatrice felt a little uncomfortable. âNow, the one whoâs captured is
your ex-motherâin-law, not my mother-in-law. Shouldnât you be more nervous than me? Why do you act
as if nothing happened? Could it be that you really have no more feelings for Alex at all?â
A ladyâs mind was hard to fathom. If Dorothy were to show a look of panic and restlessness at this
moment, she might still feel sour and uncomfortable in her heart. However, after seeing her sisterâs
indifference, she felt angry on Alexâs behalf.
At this moment, Maya Howards, Waltz Fleur, and Holly Yates, who had just recovered a bit from her
injuries, also rushed to the lake from Rockefeller Manor.
Seeing the small boat located at the center of the lake and Brittany on it, Holly instantly said, âIâll go
there to save Godmother! I canât let her fall into that old thiefâs hands.â
However, she was held back by Waltz.
She said, âHave you forgotten the pain after your wound is healed? Youâre no match for the old man.
Youâll be seeking your death if you go there.â
Holly tugged at her hair anxiously as she said, âWhat should we do then? Oh, if my cousin is here, she
would beat that old fart till heâs scared witless.â
Her words had caused Maya to question her. âHolly, do you still have a cousin? Donât you have no
family, friends, and relatives?â
âHuh?â Holly suddenly realized that she let the cat out of the bag, so she hurriedly remedied and said,
âDid I say I have a cousin? Oh, right. I have a distant cousin whom I met when l was very young. Sheâs
a prodigy in martial arts. Sheâs been more powerful than me since childhood. So many years have
passed. Sheâs definitely more powerful than me now.â
Maya and Waltz looked at each other.
In fact, they had doubted Hollyâs identity a long time ago. She was young and had decent cultivation.
She had entered the path of cultivation as early as Alex too. Even now, she was also an existence with
the strongest battle power among them other than Alex. Who would believe her that she was just an
orphan?
However, Holly did not want to talk about it, so they pretended that they did not know it and did not see
through her lies. A lady always had some secrets of her own. It would be fine as long as she did not
have any malicious intention toward the family.
Waltz said, âNow, we can only wait for Senior to come back. Hopefully, he has a way to deal with the
ancestor of the Witch Doctor Sect.â
Among the crowd on the shore, Carol Rockefeller was also there. Noah Rockefeller and Mariah
Hamilton were also beside her.
Since Aunt Rockefeller burned down Noahâs villa before, the entire family had been bearing endless
resentment toward Alex. They felt that Alex was the one who burned their villa down, resulting in the
impulsive Noah almost running to Rockefeller Manor and wanting to burn the manor back then. In the
end, he was still worried that Alex would come after them and kill their entire family out of anger. Only
then did he force himself to endure it.
Facing Alex, who had astounding battle power, their family could not confront him head on.
Now that the ancestor of the Witch Doctor Sect had made his move and avenged them, they certainly
had to come over and watch the good show unfolding. Through mini binoculars, Mariah was delighted
to see Brittany sitting alone helplessly on the boat.
She smiled and said, âThis b*tch, Brittany Rockefeller, always look aloof. Who would have thought that
she would be in such a state today?! Hubby, look at this look of hers. Doesnât she look like a spiteful
widow very much? Itâs so funny! Serve her right for being in such a misfortune⦠I anticipate the scene
of her son rushing over and throwing away his life!â
âLet me have a look! Let me have a look!â
Noah took away the binoculars and looked into it, too. Then, he said, âI donât know where Alex
Rockefeller had learned his martial arts either. Iâm not sure if he can escape from this old manâs hands.
If he manages to survive this time, we need to prepare to escape to other countries then!â
Carol said, âDad, rest assured. Didnât you see it? The one who had rushed there just now is the
patriarch of Michiganâs Stoermer family, and heâs a Grandmaster. Even a Grandmaster couldnât break
through the ancestorâs cordon. Do you think Alex Rockefeller can still escape from the palm of the
ancestor? Hmph. He killed the young master of the Witch Doctor Sect, Levi Bayer. The Witch Doctor
Sect will never let him off the hookâ
Mariah asked, âDid Alex Rockefeller kill Young Master Bayer?â
âWho else do you think did it?â
âThis damn b*stard. He really harms people everywhere he goes! Your ex-boyfriend, Seamus Owen,
was also killed by him. Now this Young Master Bayer was also killed by him. Does he fancy you? Why
else would he always make life difficult for your men?â
âUh..?â
Mariahâs words had startled Carol.
