Everyone was a little surprised at how much Rong Huangde knew about a cult established in the US.
Jordan recalled the books in the basement of the Rong family’s house. He knew that Rong Huangde must have a thorough understanding of all sorts of strange cults in the world.
But Lauren was focused on another question. “Ms. Uehara? If her name is Uehara, does that mean she is not related to Sister-in-law?”
Jordan shook his head and said, “No, Yumi has her father’s surname and her mother’s first name. We can’t be sure yet unless we know the full name of this Japanese woman.”
In the room, the Japanese woman smiled. “Our family has been searching for the source of our spells. Some say that it comes from your country. Therefore, I came to the US. Fortunately, the heavens didn’t let me down. A year ago, I met you in the county seat and used one of your Handley family’s spells to steal something.
“For the past year, I’ve come every other week. Until today, you still refuse to tell me how you peasants know such magic! How despicable!”
Harvey walked forward and said, “Why should we tell you?! You Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and killed so many of our soldiers! If we tell you, wouldn’t you Japanese use our spells to try and dominate the world again? Uehara Yumi, you vicious woman, stop dreaming!”
Uehara Yumi!
This Japanese woman’s first name was indeed Yumi!
Jordan opened his mouth wide as if he was witnessing a magical moment. He knew that his sister-in-law, Yumi, had taken her father’s surname. And her father was an American.
But for her first name, she had been named after her Japanese mother.
In addition, they looked so similar that Jordan was almost 100% sure that this Japanese woman was Yumi’s mother!
“F*ck, Jordan. Your sister-in-law is a descendant of the Nine Chrysanthemum Faction! Didn’t you realize that she’s different from other women?”
Shaun was shocked.
Jordan felt a headache coming on. He had always respected his sister-in-law because she treated him well. Unlike Jesse, who pretended to be nice to Jordan but was actually selfish and wanted to monopolize the family business.
“Speaking of which, ever since Grandpa passed away and the eight great families went against the Steele family, I haven’t seen Sister-in-law again… I thought she ran away because she was afraid of being implicated.”
As Jordan and Jesse didn’t have a good relationship, he didn’t ask about his sister-in-law. If Yumi was really the daughter of Uehara Yumi and a descendant of the Nine Chrysanthemum Faction, she was completely capable of helping Jesse.
However, after the Steele family’s incident, Yumi never appeared.
Unless Yumi had ulterior motives for marrying Jesse. She just wanted to infiltrate the Steele family and had no intention of being a good daughter-in-law!
In the room, Uehara Yumi laughed out loud. “If Japan had won World War II, we would have ruled the world long ago! We were just short of an opportunity! If I find out the origin of our Nine Chrysanthemum Faction and your Handley family’s spells, perhaps this huge secret can help Japan rule the world again!
“There’s a saying: A wise man submits to the circumstances. You two brothers are just poor country bumpkins. If it weren’t for your spells, you won’t be able to even fill your stomachs! You don’t have to pretend to be patriotic! I can change your nationality and turn you into Japanese royalty. You will be richer than you ever will be if you stay here!”
Terrence said, “Ms. Uehara, although we’re poor and ignorant, we know very well that it’s the land under our feet that raised us. We might be better off if we go with you to Japan, but it’s not our home. We are willing to interact with your Nine Chrysanthemum Faction. But other than that, I don’t want to cooperate with you Japanese!”
Hearing this, Jordan and Lauren were shocked.
Shaun’s father and uncle were not traitors. They actually rejected cooperation with the Japanese!
Shaun also had tears in his eyes. “My father and uncle are so noble! I’m actually a descendant of a f*cking loyal family! Mom never told me!”
Jordan teased him. “So you always thought that you’re the descendant of traitors?”
“Screw you,” Shaun retorted.
Lauren also said, “Shaun, since your father and uncle are good people, you should do more good in the future. Don’t harm others.”
Shaun was very excited. “Yes, yes, I will definitely be a good person!”
But in his heart, he was smiling sinisterly: ‘Good person? Hehe, I’ve killed so many people in my life. No matter how many good deeds I do now, I am going straight to hell after I die! Lauren, after I take control of everything, I’ll rape you first! Hehe.’
At this moment, Uehara Yumi slowly stood up with a ghostly smile. “Alright, since you’re still so stubborn, I can only teach you a lesson like before.”
Terrence also held his breath and stood up. “Alright, bring it on!”
“Brother! No!”
Harvey immediately stopped him. Looking at his brother’s haggard figure, Harvey’s heart ached.
“Brother, you’ve battled that b*tch Uehara Yumi so many times before. She has already tortured you until you don’t look human anymore! You don’t need to step up this time. Let me fight her instead!”
When Jordan heard this, he realized why he didn’t see anyone in the room when he checked it. Perhaps it was because Terrence no longer looked like a normal person.
“Yumi’s mother is actually so terrifying? Even Terrence is no match for her?”
Jordan was very surprised. He thought that Terrence would be the biggest boss here.
Unexpectedly, the most powerful person was a Japanese woman.
Rong Huangde said, “I’m afraid Terrence is not her match. To be precise, both Terrence and Harvey combined are not her match.”
Jordan nodded. The Handley brothers would not bother about fairness in a battle. If they knew that they could kill this woman if they joined forces, they would have already done so.
Terrence pushed Harvey aside. “Harvey, you’re not Ms. Uehara’s match.”
“Ms. Uehara, bring it on!”
Uehara Yumi smiled. “Terrence, you’re more resilient than I imagined. Your wife has already been tortured to death by me, but you can still hold on until now. It looks like the Handley secret must be in your body!”
