Please come back with us to assist the investigation!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several officers escorted the five men and stuffed them into the police cars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Honey, I’m back!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Julius Reed unlocked the door, he found that everyone had already finished dinner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna Harris was sitting on the couch watching TV, while Quella Radcliffe seemed to have gone somewhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where’s Cosmo?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling a sudden tightness in his chest, Julius Reed called out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, I’m here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cosmo poked her head down from upstairs and asked, “What’s wrong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was now Quella Radcliffe’s personal bodyguard, never leaving her side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your master’s wife was going to throw out the trash, she didn’t allow me to go with her.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How long has your master’s wife been gone?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed always felt that something was off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had just come up from downstairs; how had he not seen Quella Radcliffe?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the normally present disciples at the entrance of Willson Pavilion, why were they missing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She just went down; what is it, Master?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cosmo obviously didn’t realize Quella Radcliffe might be in danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You stay at home. If Quella Radcliffe comes back, call me immediately!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed firmly instructed before shutting the door and hastily running downstairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he arrived at the location of the trash bins, he found the two Willson Pavilion disciples who were supposed to be guarding the mansion’s entrance lying inside!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not good!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart tightened, and he placed his hand on the Willson Pavilion disciple’s neck, feeling a pulse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were clearly knocked out by someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Leocadia Family!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed’s brow furrowed slightly, suspecting he knew the cause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen was skilled with poison, it was undoubtedly her work to incapacitate the Willson Pavilion disciples without a trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, his phone rang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The incoming call was from Quella Radcliffe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hello, Julius Reed?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you want to die, or do you want to live?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed demanded coldly, his voice laden with murderous intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No! Don’t misunderstand! There’s room for negotiation, your wife is right here with me, nothing’s happened to her! Listen if you don’t believe me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the voice on the phone finished, they could hear Quella Radcliffe speaking, “Honey, I’m fine, the ones who kidnapped me are a young man and an old man. They’re quite courteous, but they’re definitely no good.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey! Girl, I haven’t even tied you up. I just pushed you a bit hard getting you into the car. I’ve been treating you like royalty; how can you call me a bad person?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen complained with a sense of grievance on the phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, what do you want?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed asked icily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he heard Quella Radcliffe was safe, he could breathe a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least it wasn’t Fabian Percival’s people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m just outside in the car, didn’t even drive away to show my sincerity. Let’s be clear, I want to talk directly, I’m sincere!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Karen finished speaking, she honked the car horn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the entrance of the community.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Jetta car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing Julius Reed approach, Karen rolled down the passenger side window and waved at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thump!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed ran over and kicked fiercely at the car door!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a loud bang, the Jetta’s door was kicked so hard it caved in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey there, what’s with all the murderous intent!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen cowered inside the car, her voice full of grievance, “I didn’t do anything, your wife is right here, perfectly safe!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She gestured behind her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quella Radcliffe sat in the back seat, utterly free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the car was locked, and it couldn’t be opened from the inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed punched the window to shatters and then tore the car door off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wife, are you alright?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that Quella Radcliffe was unharmed, his tense heart finally relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m fine! Hubby, be careful, this guy is tough!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quella Radcliffe quickly scrambled out and flung herself into Julius Reed’s arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey! We mean no harm, as you can see. Can we talk?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen pushed the dented door open, stepped out of the car with a smile, and said, “So, is that food in your hand?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed, keeping a straight face, threw the bag of crabs and lobsters at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he gently embraced Quella Radcliffe, feeling her pulse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s okay! I wouldn’t do anything despicable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen caught the bag and called out to someone not far away, “Terry Moore, you damn dog, if you don’t come now, I’ll eat it all by myself!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m coming!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terry Moore sprinted from around the corner of the compound with the speed of a hundred-meter racer, grabbed the lobster, and ate it shell and all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it! Haven’t eaten all day! Almost starved to death!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Karen wolfed down the food, she teased, “Terry Moore said he couldn’t beat you, feared getting beaten up by you, and hid away, not daring to come out. I told him you must be a reasonable man, and look, you even gave us something to eat.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since being pursued by Julius Reed, wherever they went, they found people lying in wait for them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With no money on them and their phones left in the hotel, the two of them had lain on a haystack for an entire day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, it was Karen who came up with the idea to quietly steal a car, drive to the compound where Julius Reed lived, and wait for Quella Radcliffe to come downstairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How did you know where I live?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed eyed the two bedraggled individuals before him, his mood somewhat lightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had just confirmed that Karen hadn’t poisoned Quella Radcliffe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, he would have killed without negotiation and then taken care of the poison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Big brother, you think too little of us,” Karen mumbled while munching on the food, “We are professionals after all, we had scoped out your situation well before coming here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After gobbling up his share, Karen slapped Terry Moore on the head, “Oaf, stop eating!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wiped his mouth with his sleeve and said with a smile, “Mr. Reed, please forgive my impudence. It was out of necessity; if we hadn’t done this, we might not have had anything to eat.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So hungry!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terry Moore, satisfied, rubbed his belly at the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having not eaten for a day and a night, they were famished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They didn’t even have a place to stay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Life was just too hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re quite clever,” Julius Reed sized up Karen with a snort, “But if you had dared to harm my wife, I would have killed you without hesitation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Absolutely! Absolutely!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen bent forward laughing, hands clasped in a fist bow towards Quella Radcliffe, “I apologize for the rudeness earlier, please don’t take it to heart!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come on, bow with me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She kicked Terry Moore’s foot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terry Moore followed suit, giving Quella Radcliffe a deep bow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enough! Don’t act like you’re at a funeral. Out with it, what do you want?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed waved his hand, impatient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least they hadn’t done anything to harm Quella Radcliffe and had voluntarily returned her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was actually rather interested in this pair before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I won’t lie, with your Divine Skills, it’s almost impossible for us to leave Gonzalez City,” Karen blinked her eyes, tentatively asking, “Could you, perhaps, let us off the hook?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1305,"2026-06-06T17:05:03.472Z",1,"novelbin.me","009c794eb5f88972298023561d826e5c4fef9ceafd1d761f264505426998bf91","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-598","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-596",2546,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flegend-of-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
