Chapter 24: Bastard
Bella felt as if struck by lightning! She was so embarrassed that she wished she could crawl into a crack in the ground. She couldn’t have imagined that Lyvia would suddenly appear here. Moreover, she had brought their son with her.
By this time, Lyvia had already covered Dion’s eyes, because Bella had not only unbuttoned her blouse but was completely naked! For Bella, it was the ultimate humiliation.
Seeing his wife and son there, Jun Chester hastily wrapped his mother’s tombstone in his coat and walked straight out. Lyvia had already taken Dion outside the ancestral hall, as if trying to avoid some kind of plague.
Jun Chester caught up with them and asked, “Why are you here?”
Lyvia replied angrily, “I heard you moved Iris’s coffin out of Chester Cemetery, so I brought Dion here to retrieve her tombstone.”
Jun Chester was slightly taken aback and said with a bitter smile, “We really are on the same wavelength.”
Lyvia was obviously still angry. She glanced back at the ancestral hall and questioned, “What were you doing with her just now?”
In front of Dion, Jun Chester didn’t know how to explain.
But at that moment, Dion also asked Jun Chester a question. “Dad, why was Grandma taking off all her clothes in front of you?” Of course, since she was his stepmother, she was naturally Dion’s grandmother.
However, at that moment, Bella’s heart wrenching screams suddenly came from the ancestral hall. Immediately afterward, they heard a series of frantic smashing sounds.
Tonight, Bella had completely lost face. She thought she could use her body to make Jun Chester submit! But she ended up being caught by her own sister. And she was also caught by her sister’s son. At this moment, Bella felt like she was going to die of anger.
After an unknown amount of time, Bella suddenly thought of someone. He owned one of the largest companies in the country, Lordran Prosperity, and he was even a business partner of Cinder Chapel! As long as he was back, Jun Chester would be crushed!
Immediately, Bella put the previous disgrace in the ancestral hall behind her and called together many core members of the Chester family. Half an hour later, she sat gracefully in a small conference room in a villa.
Her gaze swept across all the people present. “Do you all think that I’ll always be under that bastard’s thumb?” Everyone fell silent. They had already seen Jun Chester’s prowess and indeed thought so at the moment. Some were even thinking about how to bow down to Jun Chester and beg for forgiveness.
Bella snorted coldly and pressed a button on the projector remote control in her hand.
The next moment, an image appeared on the screen in the conference room. In the large image, a dashing young man in a tailcoat was chatting and drinking with Cyand’s Deputy Prime Minister! Bella pointed at the young man in the image and said indifferently, “David Chester, a son my husband had with his lover.”
Everyone in the conference room looked at the image on the screen, shocked and astonished. They never expected that the Chester family had such an extraordinary figure as David Chester!
Bella looked around at everyone present and said through gritted teeth, “The funeral of the old man will be in two days. By then, David Chester will surely be back. At that time, I really want to know what that bastard can do!” When they heard her words, everyone’s eyes lit up.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
The following morning, the dignified Supreme Lord, James Myers, appeared on the street where Jun Chester was, surrounded by numerous high-ranking officials of Lordran. Both sides of the streets were packed with people, all eagerly anticipating his arrival.
Why would Lordran’s Supreme Lord suddenly appear in Dirtmouth? And for what could he be here for? Certainly, they would never know that it was because Jun Chester hadn’t answered his call the night before!
For a moment, everyone was abuzz with speculation. They all wanted to get closer to catch a glimpse of the elder. Even a fleeting glance would be a thrilling and honorable experience.
However, the security at the scene hardly gave them any chance. The entire street was in a state of battle readiness, with uniformed soldiers all around, solemn and tense, just in case any problems would ever happen.
Dirtmouth’s Mayor, Christopher Walsh, was naturally present. He hadn’t expected the Supreme Lord to suddenly appear here. The Supreme Lord visited Dirtmouth, but instead of going to the city hall to inspect their work, he came to this bustling, rundown street…
What could he want? Could it be that he had been here personally for the renovation project of Dirtmouth’s old streets?
Just then, Jun Chester, wearing a sweatshirt and a pair of shorts and on his way to buy breakfast, came into everyone’s view. Christopher Walsh hurriedly stepped forward, blocking Jun Chester’s path.
But as Christopher Walsh was about to speak, ordering Jun Chester to step aside, Jun Chester looked at the elder surrounded by many high-ranking officials from Lordran. He narrowed his eyes for a moment before asking, “What are you doing here?”
Christopher Walsh froze on the spot. Did this young man know the Supreme Lord? And he addressed him as… “you”? How audacious!
At that moment, the elder simply glanced at Christopher Walsh. A Lordran official immediately stepped forward and whispered a reprimand to Christopher Walsh.
“Walsh, what are you doing? Get out of the way!”
