Mori Jones stood frozen in place, feeling for a moment as if she no longer recognized White Mitchell.
From the moment he returned, an elusive sense of mystery seemed to permeate his every move.
Everyone had thought that he was simply a manipulative trickster, or perhaps, had ingratiated himself to people like Longman through some sort of favoritism or favor.
However, the scene unfolding in front of her completely disrupted Mori Jonesâs perception.
Who was the one sucking up to whom?
Looking at the current situation, it appeared that it was Longman who wanted to curry favor with White Mitchell!
Who exactly was White Mitchell? What kind of secrets did he carry with him? Hadnât he been in jail all these five years he was missing?
A multitude of questions filled Mori Jonesâs mind, and in that moment, she made a decision.
She summoned up her courage, intending to press him for an answer, wanting to clarify all her doubts, and press White Mitchell for a response.
For the time being, White Mitchell was holding Sherry Jones by his side, while Longman, following Whiteâs orders, led a bald man into Charm Magic City to handle the subsequent matters.
Mori Jones took a deep breath and hurried towards White Mitchell.
But just as she was about to reach him, a Ferrari roared to a stop directly in front of her.
The roar of the Ferrariâs engine, boasting its glaring performance, was sharp and piercing.
Mori Jones furrowed her eyebrows wanting to sidestep it, but just then, the Ferrari door slowly opened and a figure, looking no older than sixteen or seventeen, stepped out, a sense of mockery on his face.
Connor Cooper!?
At the sight of Connor Cooper, Mori Jones instantly halted her steps, and an uncomfortable expression flickered across her pretty face.
âOh? Isnât this Mori Jones, who loves to be a home wrecker? Could it be that youâre getting bored and want to find some fun here?â Connor Cooper said sarcastically, casting an interested glance at the Charm Magic City, then fixing his gaze back on Mori Jones.
âI wonder what your father would say if he knew about this? Or perhaps, youâve hooked onto a married man again?
Turns out, your new patron isnât inferior to my father. To be able to bring you to such a place for entertainment, he must be quite a player!â
Faced with Connor Cooperâs mockery, Mori Jones instantly felt cornered and blurted, âConnor, youâre misunderstanding. Iâm notâ¦â
âShut up! Youâre not worthy to call my name!â Connor Cooper said ferociously in a cold tone.
The next moment, three or four colorful sports cars pulled up. One after another, conspicuously young scions stepped out of their cars and slowly gathered beside Connor Cooper.
Looking at them, most of them were around sixteen or seventeen years old, the oldest among them barely in their early twenties.
However, their arrogant demeanor showed that they were regulars at places like Charm Magic City.
âConnor, whoâs this old lady?â One of the rich second generations chillingly taunted.
At that, Connor Cooper sneered, âWho else could she be? Nothing but the tramp who seduced my dad!â
âOh-Iâ
Hearing his words, everyone present implicitly agreed, their gazes towards Mori Jones becoming even more malicious in intent.
âHonestly speaking, auntie, didnât know youâre the party type despite your age.
You can even give us youngsters a run for our money.â
âStop stating the obvious; she might just have bagged herself a toy boy.â
âA toy boy? Iâm also one! Auntie, am I up to your standards?â
The mocking voices came wave after wave, causing Mori Jonesâs expression to become even more uncomfortable.
However, for the sake of Connor Cooperâs dignity, Mori Jones didnât dare to make a scene, she could only silently endure the ridicule of the others towards her.
She knew in her heart that if she wanted to be with Rhett, getting Connor Cooperâs approval was an unavoidable hurdle.
If Connor Cooper didnât agree to her presence, a relationship with Rhett would be impossible.
Knowing this, even if she felt wronged, Mori Jones didnât dare to argue too much.
âHave you all had enough to say? Laughed enough? If youâre satisfied, I have things to do, so Iâll take my leave.â Mori Jones said quietly, her face showing a trace of exhaustion.
However, clearly the aggressive Connor Cooper was not going to let go of this chance to humiliate Mori Jones easily.
He gave a signal to several wealthy heirs behind him.
Immediately, these heirs understood his intention and put on malicious grins on their faces.
The next moment, they directly surrounded Mori Jones.
âMaâam, youâve already come. Isnât it a pity not to enjoy yourself?â A wealthy heir said with a wicked grin on his face.
Another wealthy heir went as far as to touch Mori Jonesâ face without hesitation and then joked, âConnor, this maâamâs skin is really good, sheâs taken great care of it.â
Connor Cooper heard this, gave a cold smirk, and replied, âOf course, how bad can a woman who can attract my father be? Tonight you guys get lucky. You all like mature women, right? Perfect chance.â
âHaha⦠Thanks, Connor.â
The crowd burst into laughter when they heard this.
It must be said that although Mori Jones already has a daughter who is the same age as Connor Cooper, she is not that old herself. She has been routinely exercising and taking care of herself, so her figure and appearance are far better than those of her peers.
Itâs not an exaggeration to say that she exudes charm.
âLet go of me! What are you guys doing! Connor Cooper! Have you gone crazy!?â Mori Jones became somewhat frantic.
âStill daring to make a fuss?â Connor Cooper smirked coldly, his face showed an aggressive intent, he growled: âTake good care of her!â
âAlright, donât worry, Connor. Canât you trust our skills? We guarantee that tonight sheâll be in sheer ecstasy.â The wealthy heirs jeered.
Seeing this, Connor Cooper once again wore a wicked grin on his face, before slowly saying, âRemember to take a few pictures for my father to enjoy. Heheâ¦â
The crowd erupted into laughter again upon hearing his words, their laughs full of mockery. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âLet me go, you bastards, let me goâ¦â
Once Mori Jones heard what Connor Cooper said, she became even more hysterical, struggling to break free.
But, outnumbered and a woman, she was helpless against them. The only thing she could do was cry out for help.
âHelp, let me go, you bastards, let me goâ¦â
Mori Jones shouted hysterically, hoping to attract the attention of others, she knew that if she fell into these menâs hands tonight, she would be in grave danger.
Just then, White Mitchell, who had just settled the unconscious Sherry Jones, froze.
Kylin also reacted at this point and said, âSuperior, it seems like someone is calling for help.â
White Mitchell frowned, it was not a guess, it was indeed someone crying for help, and it was Mori Jones!
âTake care of Sherry for me, Iâll be back soon!â
The moment he turned around, White Mitchellâs face instantly hardened.. Then, like an arrow leaving the bow, he charged directly at the group of wealthy heirs not far away!
