CHAPTER 524 THE STRONGEST OF THE WATTS FAMILY
That was a really startling scene, knocking everyone's socks off.
A sprawling feeling of panic overrode the crowd, and some dropped their chopsticks and they clattered
on the floor.
Since the teardown last time, the Watts spent quite a fortune to build the security team; each member
was paid more than one million dollars, and they even hired the former captain of the Sunset Marine
Corp.
With the astronomical investment spent, they pinned their hopes on these bodyguards when they faced
another formidable enemy. But they lost the bet when a woman just beat the hell out of them.
And ironically, their leader, Hank, had passed out after meeting eyes with Leo.
Everyone present couldn’t believe that was the best the bodyguard with annual pay worth millions of
dollars could do. This was too much of an insult to the word 'elite'!
They felt as shocked as scared when Nadine had brought down the Watts residence, but as Nadine's
respected young master, Leo was still sitting in the car, not moving an inch.
The remaining guests suddenly got on their feet.
"Well, Mr. Watts, I've got things to do at home. I'll visit you another day!"
"My wife was cooking at home. I think I should go back and eat with her."
"Mr. Watts, good luck."
All of them were running away.
They feared both Nadine and Leo after recognizing Leo as the chairman of the J Group and the top
leader of the L Group's branch in Hopkins.
These two titles were dreadful enough to keep the guests away, and most of them were big shots with
no more than regular business partners with the Watts family. Moreover, they didn't have any feud with
Leo.
It would be a tremendous loss to offend the J Group and the L Group at the same time for the sake of
the Watts family. They wouldn’t make such a stupid decision.
Ayan was trying to persuade them to stay with a very embarrassed look on his face.
"Please stay. Today is my 70th birthday. I bet on the dignity of the Watts family that I'll stop anyone from
ruining this wonderful night. This is a disgrace to my family. How could we live with the shame of other
people knowing this? So, only one person can get out of here alive tonight, either me or him!" Ayan let
out a loud and clear growl that echoed in the nearly empty yard of his family residence.
The guests suddenly stopped at the sound because they were curious about the result.
"Leo!" Then Ayan raised his pitch as he glared at the Jeep. “Why don't you get out of the car? Why are
you hiding there? You coward!
“Go to hell!” Nadine was desperate to kill Ayan.
"Stay back!" A deep growl came out of the car was as loud as thunder, creeping everyone out.
As powerful as it was, the male voice penetrated outside the car through the window.
Nadine, the ruthless killer, backed to the side like a docile little sheep.
Leo's voice came out of the car again. "I'll handle this by myself if I get out of the car. Are you sure you
want that?"
This sent a chill down the onlookers’ spine.
Ayan snapped with a smug smile, "You're just a coward married into your wife's family. Why would I be
afraid of you? Get out of the car, now!"
As Ayan’s voice fell, the car door banged open.
Leo slowly walked out. Under the pouring moonlight, his shadow was stretched into the endless
distance and approached Ayan like a ghost from the darkness.
A pair of murderous eyes glaring with killing intent revealed in the dark, drawing everyone's attention.
Nadine followed in his footsteps like Leo’s most loyal guard.
All of a sudden, overwhelming killing intent flooded the crowd.
People’s limbs went numb under a kind of laser scan called ‘Leo’s scan’. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Ayan regained his focus after a few seconds, and he said through a fearsome expression, "Leo, you
tore down my house and humiliated us in front of the Hopkins people. Now, you're messing up my 70th
birthday. Do you really think we were all pushovers?"
Jonah, Lane, Albie, and other young people all glared at Leo, who didn’t seem to care about it. "Where
is my daughter?"
"Leo, your daughter isn't here with us. We’ll be glad to have you here if you’re not to make a mess. But
if you do, we wouldn't mind blowing your mind with some real strength!" Jonah sounded confident. The
family background aside, he had to act like a family patriarch.
But Leo only repeated, "Where is my daughter?"
A wave of fury crashed through Jonah. He snapped, "How dare you ignore me!"
Leo said flatly, "I'll give you one hour to bring my daughter back to me. That way, your family will be
fine. Otherwise, I'll kill all of you."
The crowd broke into a murmur in astonishment.
Everyone present sensed Leo’s rage and determination to find his daughter, but it was really not the
time for the Watts family to admit that.
They had to keep faking it till they made it.
"That's some tough talk. We'll see what you've got to kill all of us!"
Ayan snarled with rage, "You really think those bodyguards are all that we have? Then you're dead
wrong!" He changed his tone and continued, "They’re just like appetizers before the main course was
served. None of a wise family would gamble all on a bunch of bodyguards. Do you really think we can
rise into a prestigious family without an ace card?"
Leo smiled lightly, "Are you sure it’s a show-hand time now?"
"Now or never," Ayan sneered, "If you don't buzz off, I wouldn't mind doing it now. I'm afraid you'll be
dead soon." He then waved his hand.
Suddenly, a chilling breeze swooshed past everyone, sending everyone goosebumps.
They woke from astonishment and looked around impulsively.
Eyes widened, they saw two people appear out of nowhere, and each flanked the corners of the
yard.
