Chapter 259 Forced Marriage?
He was extremely angry. He thought for a moment, then took out his phone and made a call. Soon, the call went through. A slightly flattering voice sounded, âHey, Mr. Watson, I heard that you have returned to Washington. I was going to treat you to a meal to welcome you.â
âWarren, donât talk nonsense. I want you to deal with someone.â Luke gritted his teeth and said.
Gerald was driving the car. In fact, he was not in a good mood today.
The fact that Valery and Carolyn left without saying goodbye made Gerald feel a little uncomfortable. So just now, he was still a little angry, but for Novaâs sake, he did not do anything.
He drove the car and thought about what Nova had told him.
Now that he had confirmed seven pieces, he had already obtained the Lam familyâs piece. The Thornton family had three pieces, the Frey family had one, and the owner of Quadrity had three pieces!
The Frey familyâs piece might not be that difficult to get. The Frey family was not a martial arts family. Perhaps their ancestors had practiced martial arts, but they didnât do martial arts now. What they cared more about was the business side. Moreover, Gerald helped Arthur and Monica. At that time, Gerald could just give up his shares in the Apex Group in exchange!
The two pieces in the hands of the boss of Quadrity were somewhat difficult to get!
The boss of Quadrity was their chef, and this person seemed to have a strange temper.
If Gerald wanted to get to know him, he would have to go through a lot of trouble.
Of course, the most difficult thing was to get the bones in the hands of the Thornton family.
After what happened yesterday, he could be considered to have become a big enemy of the Thornton family.
Caleâs new lover was slapped four times by him, and Jared was directly slapped away by him. It was obviously very difficult to get the bones from them through normal means.
Gerald couldnât buy the pieces from them, because the Thornton family was not short of money. They were definitely not willing to sell it to Gerald.
The key was that Gerald was a Watchman. It was not feasible to rob the piece by force.
âIt is a little troublesome.â Gerald touched his nose and said in the car, âAh, forget it. Iâll wait and see. Iâll find Arthur and ask him about the specific situation first.â
He stopped the car and found the headquarter of the Apex Group. Then he drove toward the Apex Group.
After arriving at the first floor of the Apex Group, he called Kerr and asked for Arthurâs phone number.
Kerr said that she wanted to ask Colby.
Gerald was not in a hurry. He found a place to sit down.
âExcuse me... are you Mr. Kenneth?â He waited for a few minutes. Suddenly, a beautiful woman with glasses walked up to him and bowed slightly.
Gerald was stunned. He nodded and said, âYes.â
âMr. Frey is waiting for you in the office. Please follow me!â The woman smiled at him and said.
Gerald was surprised. He thought that it was Kerr who asked Colby. Colby was also at work, so he told his father. Then Arthur sent someone down.
They took the elevator upstairs and arrived at the door of an office. The beauty with glasses smiled and said, âPlease come in. Mr. Frey is waiting for you inside!â
âThank you.â Gerald smiled at her and then pushed open the door of the room!
After Gerald walked into the room, his expression changed slightly.
Inside the room, Arthur was sitting on a chair. Colby was sitting next to him. In addition, there was a woman wearing sunglasses. She sat on the sofa with her legs crossed!
âKallie, can we go out and talk?â Colby coughed and said, âMy dad has something to deal with here.â
The womanâs name was Wagner Kallie. She glanced at Gerald indifferently. Then she said, âI wonât go out. Iâm pregnant now. You have to give me an explanation. Either marry me or give me money...â
The corner of Geraldâs mouth twitched. He looked at Arthur and Colby.
Arthur didnât look so good, and Colby looked embarrassed.
âWell, is there some misunderstanding? I remember I had a condom at that time,â Colby said awkwardly. âWell, my dad has something to do. Letâs go out first. I will give you a satisfactory answer.â
Kallie obviously did not intend to pay attention to him. She crossed her legs and spread them out on the sofa. âColby, I did not think that you would be responsible as you are such a jerk. However, I am just an unknown star. Where are your friends? They are not willing to support me. I get my roles because of Cassidy. Now that your friend has banned Cassidy, I canât get a role either. Either you marry me or I will expose this. The press I invited is already on the way here. Or you can ask Kerr to stop doing things against Cassidy. I wonât come to harass you then. Everyone will be happy!â
Gerald was speechless. Kallie seemed to survive relying on Cassidy.
A celebrity like Cassidy was one of the best in the country. If she was not popular anymore, naturally, some people would be affected as well!
âI...â Colby gritted his teeth.
âIsnât it embarrassing enough? Drag her out,â Arthur said as he glared at Colby.
Colby looked embarrassed. He gritted his teeth and walked over, wanting to pull Kallie.
At this time, Kallie took out a dagger from her small bag and pressed it against her neck. âColby, donât come over. If you come over, I will kill myself in front of you! Either you marry me, or you call Kerr now and ask him to remove the ban on Cassidy!â
Gerald frowned. He approached Kallie at an extremely fast speed. Then, he raised one hand and shook the wrist where she held the dagger. The dagger in her hand was taken away by him!
âWhat are you shouting for in broad daylight?â Gerald touched his nose.
Colby also reacted quickly. He hugged Kallie and said, âLetâs go out. I will take care of things!â
Gerald took the initiative to open the door for him. Colby carried Kallie and dragged her out!
When Gerald closed the door, Arthur laughed dryly and said, âGerald, sorry for letting you see this.â
Gerald looked at him with a faint smile and said, âItâs a small matter.â
Arthur coughed and quickly changed the topic. âJust now, Kerr called Colby and said that you were looking for me for something.â
Gerald let out a breath and said, âYes, I heard that you have a piece of Dragon Bone.â
Arthurâs expression changed. He looked at Gerald and said, âThere is indeed such a piece. It was passed down from the ancestors.â
âI want it, and I can pay a price,â Gerald said.
Arthur frowned, then sighed, âGerald, if this bone is in my hands, I can give it to you. After all, in my opinion, this thing is not very valuable. However, this thing is passed down from the ancestors, which is equivalent to my familyâs heirloom. Although I am now the head of the family, I canât make the decision on this thing. How about this? I will go back and discuss it with my family today and then call you. What do you think?â
Gerald nodded and said, âAlright, sorry for troubling you!â
