Chapter 67 - You’re Not Qualified

Cole Stone had created his own fake death and used this method to reverse the situation where he should have lost. With that, not only could he escape safely, but he could also give the Williams family the opportunity to capture the people from the Yeager and the Hayes Families.

So…

Everything that happened last night had been orchestrated by Cole.

Steve had already been wondering why Cole did not commit suicide earlier or later. Instead, he chose to commit suicide when the Williams family had finished surrounding the factory.

From the looks of it, didn’t this mean that he had planned to fake his death and fool everyone?

Steve was a little vexed. He did not know how Cole had faked his death.

But on second thought, he was relieved.

This was the key to Cole’s success.

Steve could not figure it out, but it was normal for people to not be able to figure it out.

This was Cole’s ability.

What happened the previous night was Cole announcing to the entire circle of the six families how mysterious his ability was.

The smile on Steve’s lips became playful.

It seemed that there was indeed no problem with his judgment of Cole the previous day.

This situation was starting to become complicated!

You’re not dead…

Then today’s matter would be troublesome.

After Xavier spoke, Cara looked at the three of them observing Cole and smiled. “Grandpa, this is my fiancé, Cole Stone. As for the two from the Hayes family, I don’t think I need to introduce him to them, right?”

Jayden’s expression changed.

“No, no.”

Xavier hurriedly smoothed things over and looked at Cole with a smile. “Not bad, not bad. You’re a talent.”

“Hello, Grandpa Xavier.”

Cole greeted him politely.

“Long time no see.”

Xavier greeted Hugh.

Hugh nodded with a smile.

Hugh and Xavier were old friends, but such an occasion was not suitable for catching up.

Cara and Cole walked to the table.

“Clear the area, and let’s talk directly.” Just as they sat down, Cara directly addressed them with a few words.

She had no intention of being polite.

The swords were drawn.

The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder.

“Well…”

Jayden’s expression turned even uglier.

Cara was going to take the initiative.

“Sure.”

Xavier nodded and waved his hand. “Get them out.”

A middle-aged man behind Xavier immediately instructed everyone else to leave.

The entire private room immediately became quiet.

Only the few of them were left. Xavier, Steve’s trusted aide, Xavier’s trusted aide, and the three from the Williams family.

“Alright, there are no outsiders now. You can rest assured.”

Cara looked at Steve and Jayden and said calmly.

He did not look like someone who was here to negotiate.

Jayden snorted. “What else is there to say? Hurry up and let him go. The Hayes family will pay ten million.”

“Change to another person if you can’t talk terms.”

Cara said.

Jayden choked.

Seeing this, Xavier tried to smooth things over. “Cara, I just wanted you guys to make peace today and resolve this matter…”

At this point…

He could not help but glance at Cole.

In his opinion, since Cole was not dead, the Williams family had not lost anything.

Was there a lack of matters between the big families? Kidnapping was a common occurrence for Xavier, who had been the leader of the Sky Sea Martial Alliance for so long.

It was enough to let people off!

However, he did not dare to say this. The reason was not that he was afraid that Cole would get unhappy, but that he was afraid of Cara being unhappy.

Xavier had a good temper, but that was relative to the people of the six major families.

Toward an ordinary person like Cole, although Xavier did not show any disdain, he did not take him seriously.

“I also hope to maintain stability and harmony within the six families.”

Cara smiled and said, “But some people are unwilling.”

“Who are you talking about?”

Jayden snorted.

“Uncle…”

Steve cut him off.

Jayden stopped talking.

“Auntie Williams, you haven’t eaten yet, right?” It was Steve’s turn now.

Cara smiled. “I have to say. You’re the person who resembles your father the most. You’re like your father, especially hypocritical.”

This left everyone speechless.

Steve choked.

Xavier tried to smooth things over again. “Let’s get down to business.”

He suspected that if he were not here, they would have started fighting the next second.

Xavier’s words gave Steve a way out, and he spoke again.

But this time, he was not looking at Cara.

He stared at Cole and smiled. “Good afternoon, Mr. Stone.”

Steve wanted to attack Cole and see how Cole would deal with it.

“Call him Uncle Cole.”

Cara said calmly.

Everyone was speechless.

Jayden was so angry that the veins on his neck throbbed.

Cole was five or six years younger than Steve. How could Steve call him uncle under such circumstances?

However, Steve was already used to it.

Since he wanted to observe Cole, it was naturally necessary to be flexible.

“Uncle Cole.”

Steve smiled.

“Good afternoon!” Cole did not show any unnecessary reaction. He first said something polite.

Seeing this, Steve raised his eyebrows and smiled playfully. “Mr. Stone, what do you want our family to do?”

“Yeah…”

Cole pondered for a while.

This action attracted everyone’s attention.

“You’re just being mysterious.”

Jayden snorted.

Xavier looked at Cole with interest.

He was a little curious about what Cole relied on to attract Cara.

When everyone’s patience was running out, Cole said, “I want someone.”

“Who is it?”

Steve asked.

“Simone Owens.”

Cole said.

A hint of interest flashed across Steve’s eyes. “What do you want Elder Owens to do?”

“I want her and Chris’s lives.”

Cole said bluntly.

He could not hide it.

His tone was flat.

The atmosphere immediately froze.

Xavier frowned.

Cole was too ignorant and did not know how to speak.

It was fine if he had not been around, but the leader of the Sky Sea Martial Alliance had come out to make peace, and yet he was talking about killing?

Xavier did not take him seriously at all.

As for Jayden, he sneered. “Son-in-law of the Williams family, do you think that just because Cara likes you, everyone from the six families is an idiot?

“We only tied you up once, and you want two people dead?

“I say, you’re delusional.”

Jayden laughed even more contemptuously.

However, to his surprise, Cole did not even look at him. He said calmly, “You have no right to speak to me.”

“What did you say?!”

Jayden got furious. He slammed the table and stood up. Then pointed at Cole and roared.

It was fine if Cara looked down on him, but how dare a freeloader look down on him too?

“You want me to repeat myself?”

Cole looked at Jayden indifferently.

“Why? Are you trying to scare me with this gaze? Do you think I’m f*cking scared?”

Jayden laughed in contempt.

Pretentious!

“No, I don’t intend to intimidate you,” Cole said with a faint smile.

Jayden narrowed his eyes. “Then what?”

The next moment…

Swish!

Suddenly, an explosive sound rang in the silent private room.

Then, a chopstick brushed past Jayden’s skin and stabbed the wall.

Bang!

A muffled explosive sound rang out.

Then, a bloody mark appeared on Jayden’s face.

Everyone’s expressions changed drastically!
