Salute To The General

For the next few days, the Smith family busied themselves preparing for Penny's birthday banquet.

On the day of her birthday, Sean instructed everyone to clean the Smith family manor until it was spotless.

With the manor looking immaculate, a famous chef was then invited over to prepare dinner.

As the chef began cooking, mouthwatering dishes were soon served on the table.

At the same time, Sean personally oversaw the arrangement of tables in the courtyard. Given the immense size of the manor's gardens, it could host fifty tables.

While everyone was busy preparing for the banquet, a group of uninvited guests appeared out of nowhere.

The leader of the group was dressed in a sleek black suit, with two tall and stoic-faced men following closely behind. Furthermore, there was a large group of subordinates behind the trio.

These uninvited guests weren't mere strangers. They were none other than Jett, Kit, Irvin, and some thugs that were specially hired by Jett for this occasion.

The moment Jett made his entrance, he opened the briefcase in his hand and activated the signal blocker within it. Immediately, all signals and communication tools around the Smith family manor were disabled.

Without another word, Jett's subordinates leaped into action. They quickly closed the gates and left some of their men to keep watch at the back door. This way, no one could leave the Smith family manor. Sean and the rest were utterly stunned by Jett's appearance.

"Who are you guys?" Sean roared after he regained his senses.

In a fit of rage, Samuel and Paul stormed forward, ready to interrogate Jett for his actions.
