Chapter 428: Uncle, You’re Too Rough
Lily was stunned.
In person?
Tina is Spectre?
How could that be?
How could she possibly be Spectre?
No way!
It definitely couldn’t be her!
As she was still in shock, Tina’s lips curled into a smile, “The lab report from yesterday, I wanted you to see it.”
Lily moved her lips slightly.
Tina waved her hand and removed the silver needles from Lily’s acupoints.
“You are Mr. White!” Lily exclaimed in disbelief.
Tina heard the answer she wanted, “Uncle, we can go now, they are almost here.”
Lily grabbed Tina, “No, you are not Mr. White, who are you really?”
Tina pushed her away, her expression cold, “You talk too much.”
With that, Tina headed downstairs first.
Lily hadn’t even grasped what was happening when Jared, with a hand chop, knocked her out.
He grabbed her by one leg and dragged her down the stairs.
“Uncle, why is it always throwing or chopping? Can’t you change your method?” Tina clucked her tongue.
Walter had a fracture, Alexander wasn’t much better off, and now Lily was being dragged by him.
It was truly-simple and brutal.
“It’s convenient, I don’t use silver needles to seal the throat,” Jared said flatly.
It’s all about silencing, as long as it works.
Tina, “…”
Will uncle be abusive in the future?
She looked down at her own body.
She wondered if her small frame could withstand a punch from uncle.
Jared seemed to notice her thoughts, his lips twitched, he freed his other hand, patted her head, and said very seriously, “I am a good man!”
Not to say he would never hit Tina, but even if he did, he might not be able to beat her.
He had seen Tina’s skills.
Besides, one silver needle from the girl, and he couldn’t move, just at her mercy.
What was she thinking about all day? She was always different from others.
Tina blinked, her long eyelashes fluttering twice, very lively. She propped her chin with one hand and spoke with a more serious expression than Jared, “A jerk’s face only writes ‘I am a good man.'”
Jared, “…”
That hurt!
Wife!
Tina’s lips curved into a smile, then she hooked one hand around Jared’s neck, looking like brothers, “Don’t worry, uncle, even if you really hit me, it’s okay. My mom might just climb up from your bedside in the middle of the night to chat, have some tea, and also discuss life with you.”
Jared, “…”
Can we talk about something normal during the day?
He felt a chilly sensation on his forehead.
Could it be his mother-in-law had really risen from the grave?
Before he could speak, Tina said very seriously again, “My nine brothers might also want to have a word with you, casually throwing a bomb at the Farrell family, uncle, don’t worry, you have many properties, just buy another if one gets bombed.”
Jared, “…”
“But my master is not so easy to appease,” Tina clicked her tongue twice, “That old man, although eccentric, is very protective. If he finds out his precious disciple was beaten, he might disrupt your household peace.”
She paused, then added, “Oh, and I forgot to tell you, my master is a renowned feng shui master. His fortune-telling skills are top-notch, especially in changing fates. If pushed too far, he might spend his cultivation and change your fate-perhaps to one of begging, the kind with eighty-one hardships.”
Jared said nothing, but he understood.
The prime instigator of trouble was none other than his own wife, Tina!
He wrapped an arm around Tina, his thin lips approaching her ear, his voice seductive, “Tina, can you bear to see me suffer like this?”
His voice was magnetic, stirring Tina’s heart. She raised an eyebrow, “I can’t bear it, so let’s continue to get along harmoniously and lovingly.”
Jared kissed her cheek, “Come to my apartment tonight, and I’ll show you what ‘harmonious and loving’ really means.”
Tina blushed and said nothing.
A dazed Lily, still being carried by Jared, exclaimed, “Are you even human? Flirting and arguing while you’re carrying me around, have you considered anyone else’s feelings?”
Jared and Tina replied in unison, “No! You’re not human, so we don’t need to consider your feelings!”
Lily retorted, “You two are impossible.”
Seeing Tina’s silence, Jared pinched her earlobe with a smile, “Tina, are you shy?”
Tina coughed lightly, “Cough! Let’s focus on the matter at hand!”
With that, she turned and walked away.
Jared smiled, finding Tina’s bashfulness quite appealing, but he knew this was not the time for flirtation. He followed her, still carrying Lily.
Before leaving, he shouted towards Logan’s bedroom, “Grandpa, you can wake up now.”
From upstairs, Logan’s deep voice responded, “No, I’ll sleep a bit longer.”
Jared muttered to himself about the addictiveness of pretending to be ill.
At the door, Jared handed Lily over to Hayden.
Hayden, lifting her like a sack of pork, asked, “Where to?”
Tina casually picked out a navigation system unseen on the market and said, “Here.”
“Alright then.”Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Following Serena’s orders, Hayden dared not question further.
On Fifth Avenue, Nathan, just out of the hospital, sat in a Bentley, apparently waiting for rescue but actually staring intently at a traffic jam ahead.
Suddenly, Vivienne’s car arrived from another direction, heading straight for the jammed cars with clear intent.
Nathan smiled, clicking his earpiece, “Close the net!”
Vivienne reached the car, saw her driver unharmed and listening to music, and realized the plot-but it was too late.
Nathan and his team surrounded her, “Miss, excuse us.”
With a gesture, Nathan mimicked Jared’s aloof demeanor perfectly.
His men secured Vivienne and the driver, opening the trunk to reveal a woman inside.
Meanwhile, Jared and Tina reached their destination.
“Serena, why have we come to this godforsaken place?” Hayden parked the car to the side, hiding with Tina by the roadside.
“Into the pot,” Tina said, popping a lollipop into her mouth and handing one to Jared.
Hayden looked on, “What about me, Serena?”
“Go ask your wife for one,” Jared shot back.
Hayden protested, “Do I even have a wife? With all the life and death I share with you, when do I have time for love?”
Jared teased, “Paula White’s affection gone to the dogs?”
Hayden retorted, “Stop talking. That shrew, I’d never marry her!”
As they spoke, a red car stopped a hundred meters ahead.
Elsa stepped out, holding a bomb remote control!
