Chapter 2694
The First Heir
Hearing Simonâs remark, Jon turned to look at him and asked, âAdministrator Fuller, what did you say?â
Simon smiled and said, âAdministrator Forrest, youâre too old-fashioned and follow the rules too strictly.
We can turn a blind eye to this, you know? You can regard Young Master Berryâs kindness as a gift
from a junior, which wonât be considered as breaking a rule. Moreover, this black dragon jade pendant
is the only one in the world. You always talk about how youâre missing a treasure from the first emperor.
This is Young Master Berryâs kindness to you, so just accept it.â
Hearing Simonâs words, Stanley also laughed and said, âAdministrator Forrest, Administrator Fuller is
right. Itâs just my little gift to you. Itâs not considered a breach of the rules.â
Jon was in a dilemma. He clenched his fist slightly, and his eyes fell on the black dragon jade pendant
on the golden silk. Administrator Fuller was right. This matter was only known between them. It should
be fine for him to accept it.
Seeing Jonâs hesitation, Simon signaled to Stanley. The other party picked up the black dragon jade
pendant, put it under the light, and said, âAdministrator Forrest, look at this black dragon jade pendant.
This is the only piece in the world, and the dragon is very lifelike.â
While saying that, Stanley looked at Jon. Seeing that he was still hesitating, Stanley suddenly changed
his strategy and said, âIf you refuse to accept it, this black dragon jade pendant will lose a master who
understands it. Itâs useless to keep it anyway, so itâs better to destroy it.â
With that said, Stanley raised his hand to smash the black dragon jade pendant.
Seeing that, Jon frowned and quickly said, âYoung Master Berry, please donât! Iâll accept it!â
Hearing that, Stanley smiled and solemnly handed the pendant over to Jon. He said, âAdministrator
Forrest, here you go.â
Jon received the black dragon jade pendant without the previous hesitation. He earnestly held the
black dragon jade pendant and carefully examined it. The smile and excitement on his face grew more
intense.
Simon glanced at Stanley, and the two smiled at each other. Simon got up, poured three glasses of
wine, and said, âAdministrator Forrest, Young Master Berry, letâs have a toast and keep this matter
tonight between the three of us.â
Jon looked at the wineglass handed over by Simon and at. the black dragon jade pendant in his hand.
He got up with a smile, took the wine glass, and the three gulped the wine in one go.
Then, Stanley sat down and asked with a smile, âAdministrator Forrest, I wonder if you can reveal a
little about what I asked earlier.â
Jon glanced wryly at Simon, who smiled and said, âAdministrator Forrest, Young Master Berry is not an
outsider. Heâs the son of Deputy Consul Berry and also considered a business partner of ours, so itâs
okay to talk about it.â
Hearing that, Jon nodded and said, âYoung Master Berry, we just received a report on the case
involving the Warren and Hart families of the South. After learning about the situation, we found that itâs
related to the Terrain Villa, so we temporarily suppressed the matter. We plan to investigate thoroughly
before making a decision.â
At this point, Jon asked suddenly, âYoung Master Berry, are you involved in this case too?â
Stanley smiled, shook his head, and said, âNo, I just asked because Iâm interested in it. After all, I have
some connections with Villa Master Turner of Terrain Villa, so I hope that you can pay more attention to
the investigation and carefully consider what needs to be reported or otherwise. Terrain Villa canât be
missing from the Northern supernatural disciple world, and Ernest Turner is also a descendant of
Patriarch Turner. I think you should understand the importance of this matter.â
His remark meant a lot.
After Stanley finished speaking, he took a sip of wine and looked at Jon calmly. Jon was not a fool. He
had been in the position of administrator for many years and naturally understood Stanleyâs meaning.
This matter was definitely related to Ernest Turner of Terrain Villa. However, Stanleyâs meaning was
also very obvious. The Supernatural Bureau could not touch Terrain Villa. With the Berry familyâs
backing, things were indeed tricky. Moreover, the descendant of Patriarch Turner was also not
someone to be messed with.
