Chapter 459

Michael closed his eyes and said, "I know, Dad."

After a pause, he continued, "Dad, Mom, listen, if I'm not wrong, Jerico can't escape from Maestria at all. The Lockwood family is so powerful that no one can escape their hunting in Lucsia.

' Jerico also knows this, so he's very likely to come back to our house to seek your help.1'

Patriarch Wheeler, Frieda, and even Erica's eyes lit up at the same time.

On the contrary, Michael's eyes darkened. "Jerico is a murderer who might do anything crazy. It was because of the Wheeler family that he ended up so miserable. So, if he really comes to us, you'd better contain him and hand him over to the Barkers to ease the tension between the two families.

"I know what you're thinking. You still want to befriend him, but I think cooperating with him is like asking a tiger for its skin. It won't end well.

"If you don't want the Wheeler family to fall, do as I say."

Patriarch Wheeler and Frieda remained silent.

Michael continued, "Dad, Mom, you’d better remember my words. Otherwise, you can't afford the consequences."

Michael had no idea if they would take his words to heart, but he could do nothing about it even if they did not listen to him.

He had done his best to convince them. Anyway, he could not lock the Wheelers up to keep them from getting in touch with Jerico.

There were some things that he could not help with even if he wanted to. He only hoped that they would take his warning seriously.

Patriarch Wheeler said,' Michael, we know what you mean. Don't worry, we know what to do."

Hearing that, Michael knew that there was no way he could change their minds, so he stopped trying to convince them and said, ' Dad, Mom, take a good rest. I still have something to deal with. I'm leaving,"
