Chapter 328 The Henderson Family Arrives
Scarlett, dressed very boldly, exclaimed excitedly, "I can't believe I finally met you in person today, and you're very handsome!"
William covered his face and said, "I just have the same name, I can't compare."
Damn!
William had forgotten about this.
Rodolfo in that Dragonstone Mountain race?
Scarlett pouted and said, "How disappointing, so you just have the same name."
William was momentarily speechless. "Aren't you worried I might do something to you?"
"I'm not worried at all. What's the use of worrying? You're so skilled. If you really wanted to do something to me, I wouldn't be able to stop you," Scarlett said as she shrugged, seemingly not worried at all.
The black sedan behind them had been chasing Scarlett's sports car, but due to performance issues, it was always a bit behind.
The driver of the black car couldn't help but curse, "Damn it! Is he Superman? How did he get in?"
The man in the passenger seat was thinking gloomily, 'How did that guy dodge that bullet?'
"How's your driving?" William said, glancing at the rearview mirror and noticing that the black sedan was still in hot pursuit.
Scarlett blinked and smiled. "I just got my license."
She also noticed the black sedan behind them and asked excitedly, "Did you do something wrong?"
William could only try to explain. "I didn't do anything wrong. It's an assassination! An assassination, do you understand? The three people in that car are trying to kill me."
"Wow, so cool! Feels like we're in a movie!" Scarlett said excitedly.
"A movie?" William asked, looking helpless, suddenly realizing how naive Scarlett was. He really didn't know how she had managed to stay so innocent.
"How thrilling!" Scarlett said, stepping on the gas pedal. The red sports car sped through the traffic like a red beast.
William didn't expect that Scarlett, who claimed to have just gotten her license, would drive so wildly. Coupled with her revealing outfit, William suddenly realized something.
"Do you race?" he asked.
Scarlett blinked and smiled, her face full of pride. "Sort of."
William glanced at the black sedan still in hot pursuit, his mind racing to figure out who was after him.
"Where are we going?" Scarlett asked.
William thought for a moment and replied, "To the police station."
"Got it," Scarlett replied.
She didn't think much of it, stepped on the gas, and waved her left hand excitedly out the window.
William glanced over and saw her bold figure, which was very tempting.
'Damn, is this woman really that bold?' he marveled in his mind.
Scarlett turned her head and saw William staring at her. She deliberately straightened up, full of teasing intent as she asked, "What are you looking at? Are you interested in me?"
'Don't look!' William reminded himself.
He coughed a few times, shifted his gaze, and said, "Aren't you afraid of running into bad guys dressed like that in the middle of the night?"
To be honest, William hadn't lived a wild life for years and was quite conservative in his thinking.
Although men liked women dressed like that, it didn't mean William liked it.
Scarlett shrugged and said, "I don't care. Everyone has their own interests and hobbies. Why should I listen to others? I like dressing like this, so I dress like this."
Blinking mischievously and smiling, she asked, "Well, don't you like it?"
As she said that, she deliberately leaned closer to William, raising her eyebrows.
William didn't mind, but still gentlemanly pushed her forehead away and said, "Stop it."
He was convinced that Scarlett had a skewed worldview. Did she want love?
Soon, they drove the sports car to a police station near Lindwood City. As they were about to reach the entrance, William turned to Scarlett and said, "Thanks for this. See you around."
Scarlett frowned and said, "Huh? You're just using me and leaving?"
William shrugged and said, "Young lady, you shouldn't wander around late at night, especially dressed like that. Let your family take you home."
Scarlett got anxious. When she saw the car speeding into the police station, she shouted, "Ah, what do you mean?"
William just grinned, patted her head lightly, and then jumped out of the window, disappearing into the darkness.
Scarlett stomped on the gas pedal, cursing angrily. "Jerk!"
The people in the black sedan behind them didn't expect William to pull such a stunt and found it too late to stop.
A dozen armed police officers quickly rushed out from the entrance of the police station, surrounding Scarlett and the black sedan in no time.
Scarlett pouted, crossed her arms, and got out of the car angrily. She made a phone call, then looked in the direction where William had disappeared, frowning in frustration. "Just wait, I will find you!"
The three assassins were in a miserable state. They were dragged out of the car, pressed to the ground, and babbled in a foreign language.
Meanwhile, William was relaxed and leisurely returned to his villa.
At the same time, in a luxurious presidential suite in Imperial City, Archibald was furious, his face dark as he cursed, "Damn it! Those three useless idiots couldn't even catch one person!"
He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looked out at the night view of Imperial City, and then dialed a number. "Larkin, I want you to bring someone back for me!"
At noon, a large cruise ship slowly docked at the Lindwood City port .
This was the Henderson family's private cruise ship from Imperial City, with the red "Henderson" logo painted on the hull!
At the front of the deck, a man in a white suit gazed intently at the modern buildings and the prosperous land of Lindwood City, a faint gleam flashing in his eyes.
This man was none other than Archibald of the Henderson family, who had appeared at that banquet a while ago.
Now, half a month had passed, and his cold demeanor had become even more pronounced, his eyes extremely bright, seemingly filled with a burning anger.
Injuries?
Imperial City had renowned doctors, and he had long been healed.
"I'm back. This time, I'll make you pay!" Archibald declared in a calm tone laced with murderous intent, making him seem invincible.
Behind him stood an elderly man in gray clothes. His white eyebrows and beard fluttered in the wind. His face was lean, and his eyes were slightly squinted, giving him a kind and gentle appearance. Yet, his aura, blending seamlessly with nature, was not to be underestimated.
"Archibald, your father instructed you not to act rashly in Lindwood City this time. He told you to act according to the circumstances," the elderly man said.
"Larkin, I know, but I can't swallow this anger," Archibald said, scanning the tall buildings ahead, his eyes filled with coldness.
He continued, "No matter what, I must vent this anger! The Henderson family cannot be insulted! Don't worry, I won't ruin the Henderson family's big plans."
After Archibald finished speaking, Larkin didn't say much behind him. He just nodded silently, saying, "I will follow your orders."
Archibald looked at the tallest building ahead, his gaze becoming even brighter.
Evander had been planning major company affairs these days, and the entire Cater family company in Lindwood City was in a state of intense preparation.
Early that morning, Evander brought his son and a few subordinates to the port to receive Archibald from the Henderson family.
When he saw Archibald standing on the deck from a distance, his heart skipped a beat.
Last time, as the business partner of the Henderson family in Lindwood City, Evander failed to provide assistance, causing the Henderson family to doubt the Cater family. If he couldn't take good care of Archibald this time, his next plan would be ruined.
Evander had been secretly planning this for a long time, wanting to use this opportunity to take over the pharmaceutical companies in Lindwood City and elevate and strengthen his family's position and status in the country.
But from the last incident, it was clear that BK Pharmaceuticals had deep roots. If he wanted to defeat it in one go, he had to take advantage of the Henderson family's visit to Lindwood City for business cooperation to bring it down.
Moreover, Evander had handled the incident at the Radiant Glow Hotel very poorly last time.
He was later sternly warned by Jessica.
As for Lucian and his gang, he couldn't manage them for now as Jessica said she had her own arrangements.
Today, it had also been Jessica's idea to come out to receive the Henderson family .
Jessica was about to make a move against BK Pharmaceuticals!
