Chapter 196: Chapter 196

Chapter 196 I Will Try to Fight Against Him At the Maddox’s house in Washington.

Eddie’s room was on the first floor.

As a top expert, Eddie was one of the best bodyguards of the Maddox family.

Eddie was someone from the underground world. Being tired of fighting and killing in the underground world, he came to the Maddox family in Washington.

The Maddox family had helped Eddie, so he was willing to protect them.

Eddie was not married and had no children. He had stayed in the Maddox family for years and watched Ingrid grow up.

Therefore, he treated Ingrid as his daughter and behaved like her father to choose whom Ingrid could make friends with.

To some extent, they had ignored Ingrid’s feelings.

Ingrid was outgoing and liked to make friends.

Under the intervention of Eddie and Ingrid’s family, Ingrid could only make friends with children from rich families, such as Ricky in Sacramento. Ingrid’s friends in Washington were also from rich families.

Eddie and Ingrid’s family believed the children from rich families would help Ingrid broaden her horizons.

Although Ingrid was in school, the Maddox family had planned everything for her, including her husband.

Ingrid’s expected husband was Leo from the Clay family.

Leo was outstanding among the younger generation in Washington. He was twenty–eight years old and the first in line to the Clay family. He had done well in the businesses of the Clay family, and his future would be brilliant.

Ingrid’s parents and Eddie were pleased with Leo.

Therefore, in Eddie’s opinion, it was not appropriate for Ingrid to be close to other men.

From beginning to end, they ignored Ingrid’s opinions.

Ingrid yearned to be a Watchman. They did not care about that, and it was impossible for them to send Ingrid to Night Watch.

Eddie sighed, “Ingrid, you will understand your parents and me in the future. Everything we have done is for you.”

Ingrid got angry at dinner and returned to her room. She didn’t want to go out.

“Beep, beep, beep.” Eddie’s phone rang.

He picked up the phone. After a while, he frowned.

Eddie said with scorn, “Huh, did he say that? Was he warning me?”

On the other end of the line, Warren said, “Mr. Audley, I don’t know the details. It was said by someone I sent over.”

Eddie touched his nose and said, “That’s interesting. Okay, I got it.”

Eddie sent a message to Irvin. Then he stood up and walked to the living room.

After a while, Irvin went downstairs in his pajamas and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Eddie briefly explained the matter. Irvin frowned and said, “He single–handedly dealt with more than a dozen people. Could it be he was sent by Night Watch to protect Ingrid secretly?”

Eddie said, “Absolutely impossible. Watchmen usually keep a low profile and do not attack ordinary people. Even Watchman No.

0, who had been arrogant and disappeared for three years, rarely attacked ordinary people. Moreover, they are cooperating with us. If he is a Watchman, he should give me some hints instead of threatening me.”

Irvin frowned and said, “We have been targeted by Blood Lotus and Dark Phantom. We do need the help of Night Watch. What if he is a Watchman?”

Eddie frowned and said, “I don’t think it is possible. Why does Night Watch keep mysterious and don’t tell us directly? I wonder what they are thinking.”

“However, he can defeat more than a dozen people with bare hands,” Irvin said in a low voice.

Irvin continued, “He had been in prison for nine years and was born with great strength. He probably has learned some skills in prison. Relying on his force, he wants to approach Ingrid and even depend on the Maddox family.”

Hearing that, Eddie sneered, “Gerald is not qualified to marry Ingrid.”

Irvin frowned and asked, “What do you want to do? What if he is Watchman No. o?”

“Watchman No. o has disappeared for three years. Hundreds of experts from many underground organizations led by Blood Lotus and Dark Phantom wanted to kill him. I suspect Watchman No. 0 has died. If he is alive, I guess he has been disabled. If nothing has happened to him, he must be the most powerful secret weapon of Night Watch. Will Night Watch send him to Washington to protect Ingrid?” Eddie said calmly.

“That makes sense.” Irvin touched his chin.

Eddie sneered, “I’ll try to fight against him. I have warned him twice. However, he did not appreciate my kindness and threatened me. I have to teach him a lesson.”

“I believe you know what to do.” Irvin frowned.

Gerald did not know his warning to Eddie had not stopped Eddie but agitated him.

Being at the top level, Eddie was proud.

Eddie could be considered an expert worldwide. People who had reached the super level rarely lived in cities. In other words, Eddie was almost invincible in cities.

In the evening, Gerald sorted out all the information on the table.

The most important information was the names, photos, and possible strengths.

It was late when Gerald finished, so he did not go out. After all, the most important task for him was to protect Ingrid.

At the same time, Gerald was thinking about the bone in the hands of the Maddox family.

Blaine must know something about the bone.

The Maddox family had been targeted by Blood Lotus and Dark Phantom. It was obvious the Maddox family had the magical bone.

After benefiting from the bone, Gerald thought he should find more bones if he had the chance.

As for the Dempsey family, Gerald decided to deal with them gradually.

Too many people would be involved, but Gerald did not want his colleagues in Night Watch to be affected. Moreover, in a turbulent time, a war might break out at any time.

Then Gerald went to bed and fell asleep.

The next morning, Gerald got up at about nine o’clock and had breakfast prepared by Valery. When he was about to leave, he saw a note on the door.

“There is a banquet tonight. Almost all the wealthy young men in Washington will be present, and Ingrid will also be there. There would be dozens of people. The men in Blood Lotus may take advantage of the banquet to make a move. Try to sneak in.”

The note was left by Valery. The information was probably revealed to Night Watch by the Lam family.

Gerald frowned.

Many wealthy people would attend the banquet. The scale of Wisdom Group was not enough in Bonus Washington.

Gerald’s task was to protect Ingrid, so he didn’t have to show up. However, how to sneak in was a problem.
