Chapter 1673
The Ex-Husband's Revenge
âRodney Spears, how dare you ignore the Dragon Corpsâ warning and continue harassing the civilians?
This is outrageous! Do you honestly think the Dragon Corps will allow such behavior?â Oliver bellowed, trying to distract everybody from what had happened.
âIâ¦
The color drained from Rodneyâs face as his heart sank. He was well aware of the Dragon Corpsâ
warning, but knowing that the Dragon Corps rarely stuck their noses into conflicts like this, he actually intended to take care of the Scammellsâ direct descendants first. He was certain that as long as he did not kill anyone during the process, the Dragon Corps would not be able to hold him responsible so long as they find out later than. sooner!
However, he never once dreamed that they would show up before he even got the chance to do anything and caught him redâhanded!
One could only imagine his dismay at this!
On second thought⦠he soon realized something was amiss.
âMister Jelphs, this is where youâre mistaken. The members of the Scammellsâ second bloodline requested my help to scare their enemies, and thatâs all I did. How dare you jump to the conclusion that Iâm harassing them when I didnât even do anything wrong?â Rodney reasoned. He was telling the truth;
since he had not gotten to do anything to Leon and the others yet, he was technically not in the wrong!
âYou-â Oliver and Abraham were outraged by this. However, considering that Rodney was right and had not indeed done anything to inflict harm on the Scammells, there was nothing they could do about it.
âThis is all just a misunderstanding, sirs. If thereâs nothing else I can help you with, Iâd like to excuse myself now!â Rodney added. Now that the Thompsons and the Dragon Corps had gotten involved in this, there was no way he would be able to continue teaching Leon and the Scammells a lesson!
As reluctant as he was, he knew he had to call it quits.
Besides, patience was a virtue; the Scammells were just a small family, and their influence was no match for the Spears at all! He had plenty of opportunities to snatch the Cynthion Group from them in the future!
âThis is splendid! Everything has finally come to an end!â Patrick and Damian were delighted to see that their perpetrators had decided to leave.
Rick, Eugene, and Nigel, on the other hand, were dismayed by this. They were hoping that Rodneyâs addition would tilt the tables in their favor. They didnât expect the Dragon Corps to show up without warning and ruin everything!
The glimmer of hope in their hearts dissipated!
As for Linus, he immediately decided to retreat before it was too late. He gestured to his guards, intending to leave alongside Rodney, whenâ¦
âYouâre leaving? Not so fast!â Leon scoffed.
Then, he lunged forward, stepping right into Rodneyâs path and blocking his exit.
