Chapter 679
The young man ran towards him excitedly. Instantly, everyone's attention was focused on Ollie.
The man who was the leader also saw Ollie and frowned. "Ollie, why are you here?"
Looking at the young man who had already run up to him, Ollie sighed helplessly.
The young man looked at Ollie with sparkling eyes and asked, "Ollie, are you here to experience life in Southeast Aelinne?
"My dad said that he wanted to bring me to Southeast Aelinne to see the world. I was originally unwilling, but when I saw that you were also here, I was happy!
"If I had known that you were here, I would have come happily and not argued with my dad."
The young man looked at Ollie in admiration and kept talking.
Ollie's lips twitched.
He let out a long sigh in his heart. He thought, "Uncle Number Two, Uncle Number Three, Uncle Number Four, Uncle Number Five, you must protect me from exposing my true color!"
He looked at the man who was the leader meekly and shouted, "Uncle Isaac, why are you here?"
Ollie called Jake "Uncle Jake" because Jake's wife, Olivia was Draxton's sister. But even though Isaac's wife, Yvette was Draxton's cousin, Ollie and his siblings called her husband "Uncle Isaac". The young man in front of him was Zephyr Taylor, the son of Isaac Taylor and Ollie's aunt, Yvette.
Zephyr was three years younger than Ollie and was already a top student.
This young man had looked up to Ollie since he was young and was determined to be an outstanding student like Ollie.
Isaac looked sharply at Ollie and then at Number One.
Isaac sneered and said, "So Mr. Number One has always been in contact with you, Ollie. I wonder if your parents know about this?"
Ollie did not know what to say.
"This is between Rowell and me." Number One raised his eyebrows.
Number One looked at Ollie and said, "Looks like he's family."
Ollie did not respond to that.
"Uncle Isaac, why are you looking for Uncle Number One?" asked Ollie, looking innocent.
Isaac was also very direct. He said, "I have a subordinate, Poison Eagle. He has been detained by Mr. Number One."
Ollie immediately frowned.
Number One said with interest, "Poison Eagle wants to kill me."
Isaac's expression did not change as he said, "What will it take for Mr. Number One to let him go?"
Number One said, "I'm open to discussion, but you can't tell anyone that Rowell is here. Especially not Draxton and Isabella. They mustn't know."
Isaac was angry. His gaze was sharp as he said,' Number One, what are you trying to do?"
It was Isaac's impression, or rather, it was everyone's impression, that Ollie was a likable and obedient child.
Ollie had been like that since he was young.
He was still the same when he grew up.
"Nothing," said Number One. "I just don't want those two annoying people to know and disturb us."
"Ollie won't be with someone like you," said Isaac.
Then Isaac said angrily, "Ollie, come here. I will bring you home.'
But Ollie did not want to!
Ollie blinked his beautiful eyes and said kindly, "Uncle Isaac, Uncle Number One is so pitiful. He's alone and has nobody with him. I'll stay and keep him company." Isaac felt his heart stop for a moment. This child was too sensible. But Ollie needed to know how to choose who to give sympathy to.
Not everyone deserved sympathy.
The things Number One had done all these years could be said to incur everyone's wrath.
Causing someone to be bankrupt was already one of the lesser evils.
Poison Eagle's family were the victims.
"Ollie, you're still young," said Isaac. "You don't understand. You don't judge a book by its cover."
Ollie said, "Uncle Number One won't hurt me."
Isaac still had more to say, but Ollie quickly said, "Uncle Isaac, I'll stay with Uncle Number One for two more days. Then, I'll go to Mystical Island to see my sister." Only then did Isaac's brows relax slightly.
Zephyr immediately said, "Ollie, can I stay and study with you? I'll go with you to see Betty."
Ollie did not reply immediately.
He was unwilling to let Zephyr stay.
Just as Ollie was about to refuse, Isaac said, "I think that's fine. Ollie. Zephyr is about to become a nerd. Why don't you bring him along and have fun for a few days?" Zephyr looked at Ollie expectantly.
Ollie was quiet.
To Ollie, Zephyr was a burden. With Zephyr tagging along, Ollie would not be able to do anything mischievous in the future!
Ollie was already feeling furious, but he still smiled sweetly and said to Isaac, "Alright, I think that's fine."C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
"Mr. Number One, I'll agree to your request just now," said Isaac. "I won't tell Ollie's parents about your relationship with Ollie. Can you let my man go now?" Number One was also very decisive. With a wave of his hand, he ordered Poison Eagle to be released.
Isaac then left with Poison Eagle without any hesitation and left his only beloved son behind.
Ollie looked at Zephyr and kept sighing.
Zephyr looked at Ollie with a burning gaze and asked, "Ollie, are you here to study in Southeast Aelinne? What have you learned?"
In Zephyr's heart, Ollie was a genius and the smartest student. Zephyr had always tried his best to be on par with Ollie.
As Zephyr spoke, he took out a booklet from his bag. "Ollie, there's a mathematical olympiad question I don't know how to solve. Could you teach me?"
Ollie snatched the booklet and closed it.
Ollie reached out and rubbed the top of young Zephyr's head. He said solemnly, "We don't learn from textbooks. Let's learn something else." Zephyr was not angry. Instead, his face was filled with anticipation. Learn what?”
Ollie looked at him and said a single word, "Fight." There was no expression on Ollie's face.
Zephyr was stunned.
Did he hear wrongly?
He subconsciously reached up and cleaned his ears.
Looking at Zephyr's dazed expression, Ollie gave an evil smite. If this younger cousin continued to tag along, Ollie would not be able to keep up with his pretenses, or else, he would not be able to have fun.
Therefore, to make it more convenient to have fun, it should not be a problem for Ollie to reveal some of his true colors at the appropriate times. However, Zephyr's mind was already confused.
The young man was wearing a pair of glasses for his short-sightedness and had a blank expression. It was obvious that he was a nerd.
Ollie pursed his lips. He did not know how a fighter like Isaac, who would fight to his death, could give birth to such a nerdy son.
Number One watched the two young men with interest. He was looking forward to seeing the range of expressions on the Lockwood family's faces when they learn of Ollie's true personality. The next day, Ollie brought Zephyr to an underground mercenary guild in Southeast Aelinne to accept a mission.
Considering Zephyr's situation, Ollie accepted a relatively simple mission.
Recently, a small organization was formed. The way this organization did things was very chaotic, giving others a headache. It had already attracted the dissatisfaction of many large forces. Someone in the mercenary guild had issued a mission to destroy this organization. It was good to break it up.
Whatever the reason, this organization could not continue to exist.
Ollie accepted the mission and brought Zephyr to the organization.
That organization was quite rich. The address was in a courtyard. Although it was a courtyard, it was very elegant. There were also many lofts.
When they were about to enter, Ollie and Zephyr were stopped by a few people.
Ollie said, "Zephyr, watch!"
Then, Ollie went into action.
Zephyr was speechless.
Zephyr felt like his world had been turned upside down.
Zephyr had always looked up to Ollie as the perfect model student. But now, Ollie was fighting with a group of people who looked ferocious. And the key was that Ollie had the upper hand.
The people who were getting beaten up kept wailing. Someone witnessed this and immediately reported it to the chief of the organization.
Not long after, everyone heard a sharp shout. "I am the chief here. Who has come to my territory to create trouble? Aren't they afraid of death?"
It was the voice of a young woman.
Ollie and Zephyr thought that the young woman's voice sounded a little familiar!
Then, they looked up and saw Jalivia. She was wearing a combat uniform and her hair was short. She walked over with a fierce expression.
Jalivia was shocked immediately when she saw Ollie and Zephyr.
"Ollie, Zephyr, why are you here?" asked Jalivia.
Ollie was caught off-guard.
He must be destined to be shot to death today!
How could he have known that this organization was run by Jalivia?
Jalivia looked at her subordinates who lay beaten on the ground and then looked at Ollie. She immediately smiled maliciously. "Alright I knew it. Ollie, you're definitely hiding something!" she said.
"Ollie, you have to tell me the truth today. If you don't tell me the truth, I'll tell Aunt Isabella and Uncle Draxton what you've done!"
Jalivia was naturally referring to Ollie's parents, Isabella and Draxton.
That was how they had always called each other's parents. For example, Ollie called Olivia "Aunt Olivia" and Jake "Uncle Jake".
Ollie sighed and said, "There's nothing to explain. It's just what you see. Livvy, why are you here? Do Aunt Olivia and Uncle Jake know that you're here?"
A hint of guilt flashed across Jalivia's eyes. “I'm already old enough. I won't go missing. I don't have to report to them, right?”
At this point, she paused slightly and said proudly, "People used to call me a mercenary princess, but I think the title 'queen' is more suitable for me.
"I founded this organization myself. In the future, I will compete with my father's Mercenari Uno!"
Ollie's eyes lit up. "If you keep my secret, I'll help you."
Jalivia's eyes lit up. The three teenagers looked at each other and immediately huddled together.
