Chapter 2217: Chapter 2217

David looked at the corpses on the ground and said with guilt, “Ms. Nacht, I will leave this to you. I will give you a sum of money later, please pass it on to their families. After all, these people died for me and I caused them to die because I didn’t find out in time.”

“Master David, there’s no need for you to do that! If it weren’t for you, they would have been killed by those robbers in Demon Ridge long ago. Moreover, my family has a team of people who will take care of their families and we will not treat them badly,” Beanie replied.

“No matter what, these people died while protecting our safety, so just think of it as a little something from me so that their families can live a better life for the rest of their lives.”

“Well, I will thank you on their behalf.”

Since David insisted, Beanie no longer refused.

“Princess Evie, go back and rest! They probably won’t come back tonight. If they do, they will most likely come tomorrow,” David turned to Evie and said.

“Okay, Master David!” Evie chirped her reply.

The group returned to their rooms.

David did not rest when he went back to his room but sat on a chair instead.

He certainly would not sleep tonight.

He only said that just now so that Evie and the others would rest well.

Whether the Macee family would come to seek revenge immediately was hard to say.

So, he could only stay alert.

Otherwise, it would be bad to cause more casualties to the Nacht family.

Not sleeping all night was nothing to someone on David’s level.

“Pebbles, I killed someone just now. Were you afraid?” David asked.

“You kill a bad guy, so I am not afraid,” the little girl replied, shaking her head.

“How do Pebbles know they’re the bad guys?”

“You are a good person, and good people only kill bad people, so the person you killed is definitely bad.”

David was amused by how matter-of-fact Pebbles was.

“Haha! Pebbles, you are so sensible! In the future, you might see me kill a lot of bad guys if you follow me, so don’t be afraid then.”

“Don’t worry! Although I am small, I am very brave. If you meet a bad guy that you can’t beat, I will help you beat them!”

The little girl raised her little fist as she spoke.

“Good girl, Pebbles. I didn’t raise you in vain, and in the future, I’ll let you beat any bad guy that I can’t handle with all your might.”

David kissed Pebbles on her cute face after he finished speaking.

This was, of course, just a joke.

If he could not defeat someone, how would he send Pebbles to die for him?

The little girl blushed after David kissed her.

She had already taken David’s words seriously to heart, so she must eat quickly, and protect her big brother when she grew up.

The little girl had a short memory so she could not remember a lot of things.

Yet, she remembered that she could grow up quickly and protect her big brother if she ate.

David probably did not notice that after so many days of eating and drinking a lot of treasures, Pebbles’

body had grown a little bit because it was not obvious.

“Davey! I want to eat again!”

“Okay, I will get it for you.”

The little girl ate another treasure worth tens of billions before falling asleep in David’s arms.
