Chapter 1720 The Rise Of A Young Man
“Daddy.”
“Is that what he gave you before he passed away?” Sebastian looked at the pocket watch and asked in concern.
Vivian then handed the item to him. “Yes. He told me to give this to his father. Daddy, how did the investigation go? He’s not a bad guy, right? He and his mother did nothing bad, right?”
Those questions were still her biggest concern. She was relieved when her father nodded.
As the evening sun cast a warm glow on the room’s window, Sebastian opened the pocket watch. After seeing the tiny family portrait in it, he could not help but sigh. “Jason refused to say anything because he wanted to protect His Majesty.”
“What? He did that because he wanted to protect his father?” Vivian widened her eyes in disbelief.
Does that mean those men have all this while been marking His Majesty as their target? Oh, God. Have they gone crazy? How dare they try to harm the king of Yartran!
Vivian still could not believe her ears, but she could somewhat understand the logic behind their action.
Had those men been wary of the king, they would not have instructed Daphne to approach him and give birth to Jason.
That was why they threatened Jason not to reveal their identity, or else they would kill the king.
“So Daddy, have you found those bad guys?” She had to suppress her pain and anger and pin all her hope on Sebastian.
As always, I know Daddy will not disappoint me.
At about six in the evening, Sasha finished baking the sweet yacón muffins. All the children then departed after receiving their muffins.
As usual, Vivian still brought Jaena with her.
Due to the incident during the day, Vivian was assigned to a nursing home. It was also because of the arrangement that she missed the jaw-dropping operation in the late evening.
This time, Sebastian did not take part in the operation. He left the duty to his twin sons instead.
That night, while everyone was busy with the celebration, a young man appeared out of nowhere and destroyed the casino that was located thousands of miles away from Jadeborough at lightning speed.
The casino, which no governmental agencies had dared to intervene in, was filled with the sound of people shrieking, yelling, and wailing.
The mob bosses, who were trying their hands at the gambling table, immediately drew out their guns and shot at the squad when the latter descended from the top.
That was how barbaric they had always been.
These mob bosses had ruled this place for decades. No cops had the guts to intrude on their territory, so they did not see this squad as a threat.
But soon, they realized they had underestimated this group of intruders.
“Come and sit in this comfortable spot. You can give your orders from here.”
Matteo brought a chair over and placed it next to his older brother. Though their resemblance was uncanny, Ian was more composed and elegant.
He grinned and raised a submachine gun in the air.
Ian nodded and took the seat.
After putting on headphones and opening the laptop, he started typing on the keyboard.
Seconds later, Ian said icily, “Three men from the arsenal. Four snipers. Focus on the target behind them.”
Matteo then signaled with a snap of his fingers.
A gunshot resonated through the casino.
More than ten men pounced on the mobsters like cheetahs.
One could only imagine the intensity of the exchange.
While the cops stationed outside kept a safe distance from the casino while the Jadesons, who were celebrating at Oceanic Estate, witnessed the fire exchange from afar.
“Wow, are Matt and Ian playing a shooting game?” Jaena’s eyes lit up with excitement.
She was so thrilled that she even forgot to eat.
Meanwhile, Jeffrey dared not watch as he was still too young. He hid behind Devin and munched on the meatballs that his father fed him.
Nina, who survived the bloodshed in Elysium, was in awe of Matteo and Ian when she saw how they crushed the bad guys in the casino.
She gulped while looking at the brothers, and her sparkly eyes brightened.
Jonathan said, “Sebastian, did you instruct them to destroy the casino because Eddie’s son is here?”
“No. I’m using that place as a training ground for them.”
His answer rendered Jonathan, Devin, and Sabrina speechless.
Even Sasha felt so awkward that she could not help but kick Sebastian’s leg under the table.
Can you not give such an irresponsible answer?
“Eddie’s son would definitely not hide in the casino, but there’s no way the culprit who killed Jason could escape. This casino belongs to the Heard family. In the last few years, many people sympathized with Elizabeth when Alfred stepped down from his position. She eventually left the White House to start a new life in the casino.”
Sebastian felt he owed everyone a brief explanation of the turn of events.
Upon hearing that, everyone finally understood what was going on.
His intention was to get hold of Alfred’s wife, Elizabeth!
