“What place?”
Jordan was also looking at Terrence anxiously.
Terrence said, “That place is called…”
“Brother!”
Harvey suddenly grabbed Terrence and interrupted him.
Harvey stood up and said, “Senior Jordan, drink your tea first. It won’t taste good after it gets cold.”
Jordan didn’t understand why Harvey interrupted at this moment. “Oh, it’s alright. I’m not thirsty.”
He looked at Terrence. “Terrence, where is that place?”
Harvey immediately interrupted again. “Senior Jordan! My brother and Uehara Yumi fought a huge battle today. He’s already very tired. He should rest. Why don’t we talk about this another day when my brother has recovered a little?”
Jordan found it very strange. It was just speaking a couple more words. How much more tiring could that be?
Jordan smiled. “Harvey, aren’t you underestimating your brother? It’s just the name of a place.”
Ignoring Harvey, Jordan looked at Terrence again. “Is that place also at sea? Is it in the US or overseas?”
Terrence looked a little dazed. It was obvious that he wanted to say something. However, Harvey kept shooting him looks to prevent him from saying anything.
Harvey was Terrence’s younger brother while Jordan was someone he had just met.
As a result, Terrence said, “Senior Jordan, I suddenly feel a little unwell. Harvey is right. It’s not appropriate to talk about this today. After I recover, I’ll definitely come to visit you and tell you everything. Is that alright?”
“F*ck!”
Jordan heard Rong Huangde cursing in his earpiece.
In Jordan’s impression, Rong Huangde had always been a refined and calm elderly man. However, the current situation agitated Rong Huangde so much that he cursed.
“Damn Harvey! Why did he stop his brother from telling the truth?! What is that place?! Where is that place?! Ah!”
Rong Huangde was about to go crazy!
Jordan was not with Rong Huangde now. If he was with him, he would have witnessed Rong Huangde’s ferocious and terrifying appearance. He did not look like an old man who had already made peace with death at all!
Shaun was beside Rong Huangde and he was shocked. He hurriedly coaxed the older man, “Daddy Rong, calm down. My father might feel sorry for my uncle. Didn’t they say that he will definitely tell Jordan the truth after he recovers?”
Jordan was also very frustrated. He was just one step away from success when he was once again obstructed. However, when it came to such matters, one couldn’t force it or make hasty decisions or things might backfire.
Also, Jordan was a master of psychology. He knew that he could not appear overly anxious. Therefore, Jordan smiled calmly. “Alright, I’ll wait for you to recover before we talk about this. I believe that the Handley brothers aren’t people who will take advantage of others for nothing. Hehe. I won’t disturb you anymore. Lauren, let’s go.”
Having no other choice, Jordan and Lauren left the Handley family. Before they left, Jordan quietly placed a mini bug on the chair he had just sat on.
‘It doesn’t matter if you don’t tell me directly. I can eavesdrop on you to get that answer!’
Jordan had made great progress. He knew that the Handley family’s spells came from a mysterious place and were not passed on by an individual. As long as he could get the name of that place, all the answers would be revealed.
After returning home, Jordan immediately put on his earphones and started listening.
However, Jordan soon took off his earphones.
“What’s wrong, Hubby? Did they say anything? Did they reveal the name of that place?”
Lauren asked with concern as she hugged the beautiful Sakura.
Jordan shook his head. “They destroyed the bug. I can only hear static.”
“Huh?”
Lauren was surprised. The Handley brothers had discovered Jordan’s listening device so quickly. Their observation skills were too good, right?
Jordan held her hand and said, “Honey, although Uehara Yumi has left, I have a feeling that the real crisis has just begun…”
…
At 1 AM, Harvey snuck out of his house.
He looked around, especially at Jordan’s door. After crouching low and listening for a while to confirm that there was no movement and no one nearby, he quietly walked out of town.
He snuck to a spot three kilometers away from the village and saw a figure standing in front of him.
Harvey stopped and took out a note from his pocket. “You were the one who shot the note into my pocket today, right?”
This place was pitch-black. If there were lights, one would be able to read the contents of the note. There was just one line:
‘Don’t tell Jordan the family secret, he’s not a good person!’
During the day, when they were on their way back to the Handley residence from Uehara Yumi’s place, Harvey suddenly felt a ball of paper descend from the sky and fly into his pocket.
He took it out and saw the contents of the note. That was why he had stopped Terrence from revealing the family secret.
After Jordan and Lauren left, Harvey received another note from the sky. It read:
‘Don’t say anything yet. There’s a listening device on the chair that Jordan was sitting on. Destroy it.’
At night, Harvey received another note in his room, asking him to meet at this time and place.
Harvey was very curious as to who was doing all this!
The figure in front turned around.
Although it was very dark, there was a bit of moonlight. Harvey could vaguely see that the person in front of him was a Chinese man.
It was Shaun!
It was Shaun who had stopped Jordan and Rong Huangde from knowing the truth!
How could Shaun let Jordan and Rong Huangde get the answer just like that?
After all, Shaun’s goal this time was to kill Jordan and Rong Huangde! He had yet to join forces with his father and uncle. He could not let them get the answer and return victorious.
If they all managed to return to the present just like that, the world would still be under their control.
But if only Shaun returned alive, then the master of the world would be him!
Harvey was shocked to see the Chinese man. “You… you’re a foreigner? Do you speak English?”
When Shaun saw Harvey, tears welled up in his eyes. He knelt on the ground and grabbed Harvey’s legs. “Dad!”
Harvey was stunned and took a step back in fear. “Buddy, stop fooling around. How can I be your father? What kind of woman do I have to sleep with to give birth to a Chinese kid like you?”
