Chapter 251: Chapter 251

Chapter 251 Who Did This?

Kerr seemed to have been here before. After walking in, he asked, “Where are we going?”

Gerald exhaled and closed his eyes. Then, his ears moved slightly, making full use of his hearing Soon, he opened his eyes and said, “It should be this way!”

Kerr was stunned for a moment. Then he nodded and said, “I remember that this way seems to lead to their guest house. There are quite a lot of houses here. I have also only been here a few times!”

Daphne nodded and said, “It’s true.‘

She had lived in the Thornton family’s house for quite a long time, so she was quite familiar with the place.

“Let’s go!” Gerald said.

They walked along the road and soon stopped in front of a building. It seemed to be a villa with two or three floors. When they arrived at the door, they heard a voice coming from inside.

“Jessica, don’t be so shameless. Just sign this transfer agreement, take the 1.6 million dollars, and leave. You brought this yourself. Our family does not need such a thoughtless daughter–in–law like you. As for Daphne, since she took your last name, you can take her with you. You can start a business with the money.”

“Haven’t you understood? Everything you have now was given to you by the Thornton family, yet you are still so arrogant. Either relinquish Daphne’s custody and let her return to our family, or take the money and scram!”

It was from another voice.

“Dream on!” Jessica’s voice also came out as she said, “I originally did not want to run the Goldsun Group. I have long wanted to cash out my shares and leave. Now you let me transfer the shares to you for only 1.6 million dollars? Why should I? How much effort did I put in for the company? Cale knows it. Also, the Thornton family is loaded. Don’t you feel ashamed of doing this?

“Okay, I can take Daphne and leave. When the time comes, I will put the whole thing on the Internet. I want to see if you can bear the consequences! Also, not a penny less for my shares. If you want me to leave, pay the full 8 billion dollars!” Jessica sneered.

When Gerald heard this at the door, he frowned deeply.

This was also something Gerald long felt confused about. Why did the Thornton family suddenly want to take back the Goldsun Group? It was just a medium–sized enterprise.

For the Thornton family, they could totally ignore it.

As for the 8 billion dollars mentioned by Jessica, Gerald assumed that it was just an amount that she blurted out in a fit of anger.

“Jessica, don’t go too far!” At this time, a woman also shouted in a low voice, “Your daughter has brought people to find you. You should at least consider what your daughter has been going through. She hasn’t finished school yet!”

Jessica’s complexion slightly changed. “No matter what, Daphne is the flesh and blood of the Thornton family. Do you want to use the dirty means that you use on the others on her?”

Then, Jessica’s voice came out again. “Cale, say something. Daphne is your flesh and blood!”

And the room went into silence.

“Bang!”

Daphne could no longer hear it. She directly pushed open the door and rushed inside.

Gerald and Kerr also followed her into the room.

Gerald took a look and found that there were many people in the room. There was Cale, and next to him sat a woman who was dressed decently but had an extremely sexy figure.

Gerald felt that she was somewhat familiar as if he had seen her somewhere before.

This woman should be Cale’s new lover, that influencer!

In addition, there were two middle–aged men and an old man on a cane.

These people should be from the Thornton family.

The bodyguard, who was guarding the gate before, was also in the room. At this time, he was standing behind the old man.

In addition, Jessica was sitting in a chair. Her hair was very messy, and she seemed to have been slapped a few times. Her face was swollen, but her gaze was steady.

Her arms and legs were tied to the chair, making her unable to move.

When Jessica saw Gerald and Kerr walking in, she froze a little.

“Mom! Are you alright?” When Daphne saw Jessica, she directly ran over. Looking at Jessica’s swollen face, Daphne suddenly looked at the people of the Thornton family and scolded, “This is too much. Too much!”

Cale sat there and did not speak, while the other two middle–aged men frowned a little!

One of them was fat and had a big belly, while the other seemed fit.

Kerr whispered in Gerald’s ear, “That fatty is called Vernon. He is the third son of Cale’s generation.

The thinner one is now the chairman of all the industries of the Thornton family. His name is Edric.

Together with Cale, these three are the leaders of the Thornton family now. They are in charge of several large family businesses! By the way, that old man is called Jared, their father.”

Gerald looked at the few people!

At the same time, Edric frowned and said, “Kerr, don’t you know any better? I already said that we are not seeing anybody today.

How could you barge in like this?”

Kerr curled his lips and was not afraid of them at all. He glanced at Jessica and said, “You are good. You tied up your ex–wife and even beat her. And you want to drive your child out. Good for you!”

Hearing Kerr’s words, the fat man frowned and said, “What is it to you? Little brat, I don’t mind filling your father’s position and teaching you a lesson today!”

Kerr flinched as if he was really afraid of the fat man. He quickly hid behind Gerald.

Edric glanced at Kerr and said, “Go back yourself. You can’t get involved in this. Don’t say a word about this either. If word gets out, even your grandfather will not be able to save your ass!”

After that, Edric looked at Gerald and frowned. “And who are you?”

Outside the door, a voice sounded. “Dad, this guy is the abandoned son of the Kenneth family who screwed the Kenneth family. He and Daphne met when they were in Sacramento. He is Cale’s friend!”

Then, Dave and Riley walked in from the door, and both of them looked at Gerald with a half–smile.

Edric looked at Gerald in silence, then he said with a faint smile, “What? Do you also want to get involved in this?”

Gerald glanced at him and walked up to Jessica.

Jessica’s expression also changed a little. She looked at Gerald and asked, “Gerald, what are you doing here? This has nothing to do with you. Go. The people of the Thornton family look glamorous on the surface, but the tricks they play behind people’s backs are very dirty. Don’t cause trouble for yourself!”

Gerald smiled at Jessica, then he squatted down in front of her and reached out to untie the rope!

“Kiddo, don’t you understand what I’m saying? Stop right now. Otherwise, don’t even think about getting out of here today!” Edric sneered.

Gerald let out a breath and ignored him. He undid a knot and looked up to see Jessica’s swollen face. Gerald frowned and then raised his head to look around at everyone. He asked, “Who did this?”

Everyone was slightly dumbfounded. They did not expect Gerald to ask such a question!

“I hit her. So what?” At this time, the woman next to Cale suddenly said.

“You must be Cale’s new lover, right?” Gerald rubbed his nose and said, “Last time, when Cale was in Sacramento, he was still begging Jessica to take him back. Now that he’s with someone new, his whole attitude has changed!”

Cale’s expression changed. He looked at Gerald and said, “Gerald, don’t overestimate yourself just because Leandro got your back. Let me tell you, you are no more than a dog by Leandro’s side, and this is Washington!”

Gerald sneered. He stopped untying Jessica and walked towards the woman!

The woman also sneered. She looked at Gerald and said, “I hit her. What do you want...”

“Snap!”

Before she could finish her words, Gerald had smacked her face!
