Chapter 156 Do you know the upscale residential area
William's steps trembled slightly and he lowered his head, his face full of tenderness."Let's go back first. Once you recover, I'll tell you, okay?"
'Mary, I shouldn't have hidden it from you. From this moment on, I want to tell everyone that you are my wife, the young mistress of the Jones family. No one can bully you.' thought William.
Mary leaned into William's arms and nodded, like an injured kitten.
William held Mary and reached the door, where Alan personally led his brothers, having waited for a long time.
Alan had seen everything just now. Owen from the Twilight Brotherhood, defeated.
The formidable Owen of the Twilight Brotherhood, someone Alan had to look up to, couldn't last three minutes under William's hand.
The Twilight Brotherhood had disbanded and the Garcia family had fell.
At that ponit, Alan's admiration for William reached peak.
Mr. Jones's identity and status were indeed unfathomable. Even the Garcia family of Imperial City was easily toppled by him, and he even brought in special forces.
Alan's convoy escorted William and Mary all the way to the upscale residential area, Villa No.1, which was the most luxurious and comfortable villa suite. Also followed the top medical team in Lindwood City. It was all arranged by George.
William waited outside in the platinum-colored Western-style decorated corridor, with Alan and a few of his brothers personally accompanying him.
If Mr. Jones didn't sit, they didn't dare to sit, all waiting without daring to breathe heavily.
Today, if something happened to Mr. Jones and Mrs. Smith, even ten heads of Alan wouldn't be enough.
Lindwood City was his territory, and yet Mrs. Smith encountered such an incident, Alan felt very guilty and remorseful.
"Mr. Jones, I'm sorry, it's my responsibility. I failed to protect properly!"
Craig stood out at this moment; he was quick-tempered.
These days, although Craig had been secretly protecting Mary, there were still some places he couldn't enter, and sometimes he couldn't take care of everything. He had no choice.
There were always times of miscalculation.
Alan also bent over, respectfully apologizing, "Mr. Jones, it was my negligence, please punish me."
William glanced lightly and said, "It's nothing ro do with you."
Upon hearing it, Alan felt relieved, but still felt bad inside.
At this moment, William looked at Alan seriously and asked, "Do you want to work for me?"
Alan was initially confused, but he quickly reacted, nodding and bowing excitedly. "At Mr. Jones's command!"
This was an opportunity.
A once-in-a-lifetime chance and turning point for Alan.
Alan was already the Underground Emperor of Lindwood City. Although the title sounded impressive, he was often constrained and couldn't act as freely as he wished.
And all of this was because Alan lacked a powerful background.
George? He was just provide financial support; most of the time, George didn't get involved in Alan's affairs.
Now, with Mr. Jones's backing, Alan believed his status and power would reach an unprecedented peak.
"Take your men and take over the Twilight Brotherhood. From now on, you are my man. If you dare to betray me, you'll suffer a hundred times worse than Owen. Can you do it?" William said calmly, his expression indifferent.
Without any hesitation, Alan immediately nodded and bowed respectfully. "Mr. Jones, from now on, you are my brother! My life and my entire family are at your disposal!"
"And me!" Craig added.
Several of the underlings also echoed.
William smiled, patted Alan on the shoulder, and said, "Go ahead, and do it well."
Alan left excitedly with his men. At that moment, he felt as if he had returned to the days of over a decade ago when he fought his way through blood and rain.
All for Mr. Jones.
Watching Alan's departing figure, William wasn't sure if his decision was right.
Did William not have his own forces?
Obviously not.
But William didn't mind developing more, as a backup.
In the floating garden on the southernmost side of Villa No.1, two people were sitting at a crystal tea table. One was a young man, clean in a tank top, with a tall and slender figure. The other was an elderly man, in his sixties or seventies, he wore a suit, appearing humble and knowledgeable, making tea for the young man.
This floating garden cost over ten million to build, with blooming flowers and various birds singing.
"What did Jessica say?"
The young man was William.
It was George who sat respectfully opposite him.
"Mr. Jones, please don't use the mobilization order again. Although this time it was just the lowest level of the mobilization order, it still caused quite a bit of trouble. A few people in the family are already dissatisfied with you." George said mildly, his expression showing no sign of worry.
"It's not just them, isn'tit?" William sipped his coffee and said leisurely.
"Yes, and those high-ranking elders also have quite a few complaints, saying you're too impulsive. They think a small family like the Garcia family isn't worth such a grand gesture," George said helplessly.
William went a bit overboard this time. But to be precise, it was the first time in seven years.
William had done even more outrageous before.
George even missed the William before, fearless and arrogant, but also capable of hiding his true intentions.
"Anyway, I never care about their opinions." William said calmly, not caring at all.
George put down the coffee and he held back for a long time, asked, "Mr. Jones, are you really planning to take action against Mrs. Miller?"
William didn't give a definite answer. "It's not the right time yet. I can't see through Jessica, and I don't have enough leverage. If we really go head-to-head, it would be a lose-lose situation for both of us. She underestimated me for six years and let me be for seven years. it won't be that easy."
George just nodded and then took out a letter from his pocket, handing it to William. "William, it is from Mario. He asked me to give it to you, saying that if you encounter an insurmountable difficulty, read the letter and you'll know what to do. After reading it, burn it."
William took the envelope, holding it in his hand, with a faint scent of sandalwood.
"How is my dad?" William hesitated for a moment and asked.
George shook his head, looking somewhat sorrowful. "He's been waiting for you to return. perhaps you should go back. The incident back then still weighs heavily on him,he..."
"That’s enough, no more about that.Tell my dad he has a granddaughter now, and a beautiful daughter-in-law."
William stood up, then put his hands in his pockets. Under the sunlight, he left the floating garden.
George watched William's back, sighed helplessly. He took out his phone and dialed Mario's number.
On the other end, a weak voice, accompanied by a cough, sounded very low. "What did William say?"
"Mario, William can't come back just yet."
George was heartbroken, and he wiped away his tears.
A bout of severe coughing ensued.
"I see, let him stay out a bit longer."
"William asked me to tell you, you have a beautiful granddaughter and daughter-in-law." George choked up with tears streaming down his face.
He had waited for this moment for so long but had never dared to tell Mario.
On the phone, there were intermittent gasps.
"Rea... really? I... I have... a granddaughter? William got married?"
Mario Jones didn't know about William's marriage.
Because Jessica had replaced everyone in the household with her own people. Now, Mario Jones had no other way to get information except through Jessica.
Meanwhile, after he learned that William had gotten married and had a child, his special nurse, a woman with a cold and frosty demeanor, took the phone away from his ear and said calmly, "Mr. Jones, you should rest now."
With that, she helped Mario lie down, then walked out of the incredibly luxurious hundred-square-meter room, took out her phone, and dialed Jessica's number, "Mrs. Miller, Mr. Jones knows. It was William who had George tell him."
Jessica was at Cloud Peak Manor, she wore a pink lace nightgown, her figure incredibly alluring.
With her cascading curly hair, Jessica stood by the window. She held a wine glass in one hand and gently sipped red wine while looking at the scenery outside.
"William, are you testing my limits?"
Jessica muttered to herself, her face cold as frost.
At the same time, a man buried his head in Jessica's fair neck with a pair of broad hands slowly wrapped around Jessica's waist from behind.
Even the incredibly noble Jessica needed daily care and affection.
Back to Villa No.1, Mary woke up, slowly opening her eyes to see an enormous crystal chandelier and an extremely luxurious room layout.
The overall style was luxurious yet understated, incredibly clean and comfortable. The pure white, flawless bedding was embossed with a golden crown emblem, and the entire bed was incredibly soft and comfortable. Even the bedside table was custom-made by Chanel.
Mary looked around in surprise and nervousness, she wondered, 'Where is this? How did I get here? William?'
"William!" Mary called out.
William rushed in, and seeing Mary on the bed, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Mary jumped off the bed, her long, slender legs stepping forward. She threw herself into his arms, crying.
"It's okay, it's all over now."
William hugged Mary around the waist and placed her back on the bed, wiping her tear-streaked face.
About ten minutes later, Mary finally calmed down.
She stared intently at William. Her mind was full of questions so she asked, "William, where are we? A hospital? It looks very expensive; we shouldn't stay here."
William smiled, gently tapping her shiny, delicate nose. "Remember the incident at Hillside Villa? I told you and Mom that I had bought a house."
"You really bought it? So where is this?"
Mary wiped away her tears, her eyes wide with surprise as she looked at William.
William, feeling playful, asked, "Do you know the upscale residential area?"
