Chapter 270 The Gratitude From the Maddox Family

Hearing what Harland said, Leo and his family changed their expressions slightly. They looked at Gerald and did not ask much.

Harland looked at Gerald and said, “Gerald, don’t mind it. It just happens that we encounter such a thing.”

Gerald quickly replied, “It’s fine. I’ll leave you to your business. Actually, you don’t have

to take it to heart. Moreover, these things are what I should do. It’s a win-win

situation.”

Seeing that Gerald wanted to leave, some people frowned slightly, including Leo.

Harland frowned and said, “Alright, since you are determined to leave… Irvin!”

“Okay, Dad!” Irvin answered, then stood up, and said to Gerald, “Gerald, come with me.

I want to talk to you alone.”

Gerald nodded, got up, and followed Irvin out of the dining room.

Through the living room, Irvin led Gerald into a huge study. Irvin said, “Sit down!”

“What’s the matter?” Gerald asked.

Irvin nodded and said, “Do you know why Blood Lotus and Dark Phantom want to deal

with us and attack Ingrid?”

Gerald pondered for a moment and said, “First, they want to rope you in. Second, they want to get something from you. If I am not wrong, it should be bones or something like that.”

Irvin nodded and said, “Indeed. Previously, Saul secretly visited my father. However, he was chased away by my father during the discussion with my father.

“Most of the time, it is just a matter of choice. Whether it is Watchmen or other factions…” Irvin then continued calmly, “We do a lot of things out of the consideration of the inheritance and continuation of our family, including letting Ingrid marry Leo!”

“I know. Although you didn’t say it just now, your eyes and demeanor seemed to be a little disdainful. You think that we are quite rich, but we still sacrifice the

“The rise of our family relied on this box and these bones. However, they also brought us a lot of trouble.
