Chapter 3: Five years of waiting

1309 Words
Like a knife-like gaze, wherever it falls, it made Phoebe Wilcox and Rebecca Moore shiver. This Maverick Steele is not a good person! The young masters of the other three major families glanced at each other, suppressing their anger and not standing up to confront Maverick Steele. They didn't expect someone to dare to cause trouble tonight, so they didn't bring any family members or bodyguards. However, Maverick Steele came prepared and caught them off guard. The Stewart Family, three generations, seventeen people, now only left with Mary Stewart, a girl. If Maverick Steele massacred their entire family, it would just be an eye for an eye, not overly cruel. "So you are Maverick Steele, Julieta Stewart has mentioned you several times," Phoebe Wilcox avoided confrontation and asked tentatively, "I heard you have been in the military for many years. What position are you in today?" "So you were a soldier, no wonder you have some skills," Rebecca Moore sneered. Phoebe Wilcox frowned, Rebecca Moore was too impulsive. The young masters of the other three major families also frowned in secret. They wanted to seize the opportunity to see Maverick Steele's strength and hope that Rebecca Moore wouldn't disrupt the rhythm. If the opponent was just a strong brute, Phoebe Wilcox and the others wouldn't have taken him seriously. But they were afraid that this person had significant background. "What position am I in? You don't deserve to know," Maverick Steele's eyes flashed with a chilling light. He continued, "Before, I wanted to kill you all at once. But now I think I was too merciful... You should also experience the despair before Julieta Stewart jumped off the building." "Damn, who do you think you are..." Rebecca Moore suddenly became furious and shouted, "Motherf*er, dare to challenge us? I'll call someone to kill you." "Noisy!" Maverick Steele reached out and plucked a plastic pearl from Mary Stewart's hairpin, then made a sudden move. The soybean sized plastic pearl seemed like a bullet. Its speed was as fast as lightning. Plop! In the next second, Rebecca Moore's neck was pierced, blood gushed out. Rebecca Moore clutched his neck and fell to the ground, blood dripping from his fingers. In an instant, everyone was dumbfounded. "Ah!" "Damn, what... Mr. Moore!" "Who is this person? Dare to kill even Mr. Moore? Fu*k! Oceanus City is going to be in chaos!!" For a moment, screams, roars, and shouts filled the entire banquet hall. Phoebe Wilcox was frightened and kept retreating. She had been standing closest to Rebecca Moore, and the warm blood splattered on her face, almost causing her to fall to the ground in fear. She had seen blood before, but she had never experienced the feeling of death brushing past her. If that plastic pearl had hit her neck just now, the consequences... Phoebe Wilcox broke out in a cold sweat, her hands were wet with sweat, and her body felt like it was in an icehouse. The young masters of the other three major families were also drenched in cold sweat, reflexively jumping up, but they lacked the courage to confront Maverick Steele. Although they were the heirs of the five major families, they had never experienced any storms. This gathering of the five major families was also an opportunity given by their elders to the young people. Therefore, the core figures of the five major families did not attend this meeting. "When you go back, faithfully convey my words," Maverick Steele glanced at the three young masters of the other three families, then held Mary Stewart's hand and prepared to leave. "..." The three of them looked at each other, their palms sweaty. Moore, Davis, Miller, Anderson, Wilcox, these five major families were already evenly matched in strength, and their strengths were not much different. But Maverick Steele didn't even blink an eye when he killed Rebecca Moore. Doesn't that mean their lives were worthless in Maverick Steele's eyes, and he could kill them as easily as kill a ant? Phoebe Wilcox felt even colder. Rebecca Moore had fallen down right beside her, and the blood splattered on her face felt like sulfuric acid, making her extremely uncomfortable. Wiping off the blood on her face, Phoebe Wilcox gritted her teeth and said, "Impressive, Maverick Steele... I want to see how capable you really are!" "We need to quickly find out this person's identity," Beckett Davis said in a deep voice. "Damn it, who cares who he is? It doesn't matter if it's done openly or covertly. Even if we need to hire a hitman to shoot him, I'll make sure this person is dealt with," Adrian Miller said angrily. "Daring to oppose our five major families is seeking death..." After Maverick Steele left, the suppressed emotions of the others finally erupted! ... On the other side, Maverick Steele had already taken Mary Stewart's little hand and got into the car. "Domain Lord, where are we going now?" Barbara Lee asked. "We're going to the Gilbert family. She has been waiting for me for five years. Originally, I should have gone to see her first," Maverick Steele replied. "Uncle, who is she?" Mary Stewart raised her little face and looked curious. Maverick Steele smiled and lightly pinched her nose, "You'll know soon." Half an hour later, the car slowly stopped. Maverick Steele got out of the car with Mary Stewart and let Barbara Lee leave first. After five years, this row of townhouses had become somewhat old. Walking to the familiar door, Maverick Steele lightly knocked a few times. "I'm here." The one opening the door was a middle-aged woman. After seeing Maverick Steele, she froze for a few seconds, then her face changed, "Why are you back? And with Stewart's bastard, don't you know she's a time bomb!?" Mary Stewart instinctively hid behind Maverick Steele. "You useless person, after marrying Little Bean, not only did you not contribute anything to the family, but now because of you, our Gilbert family is heavily targeted. Now you have the face to come back?" Tori Parsons glared at Maverick Steele impatiently, treating him like an enemy. "Mom, I discussed with Little Bean before joining the military. Although I haven't contributed anything to the Gilbert family in these five years, I will make up for it in the future," Maverick Steele confidently said. "Make up for what? Three months ago, if Little Bean didn't lend twenty thousand Dollar to your useless brother out of good intentions, our Gilbert family wouldn't have fallen like this. Just get out of here. In the future, you, Maverick Steele, have nothing to do with our Gilbert family!" Maverick Steele furrowed his brow and asked, "What's going on? Explain it in detail." "Hmph." Tori Parsons spat and said, "Three months ago, Julieta Stewart brought this illegitimate child to find little Bean. He said he had no way out and couldn't survive anymore! At that time, Julieta Stewart was already a thorn in the side of the five major families. Who would dare to help him? Little Bean took pity on him because of your face and lent him two hundred thousand in her personal capacity..." "As a result, those people began to target the Gilbert family. In just three months, our Gilbert family has been suppressed by those business tycoons, and now we are on the brink of bankruptcy!" "All of this... is all thanks to you and your useless brother!" Tori Parsons's voice was loud, and soon a crisp and pleasant female voice came from inside, "Mom, it's time to eat. Who are you arguing with at the door?" As she spoke, she curiously walked towards the door. With a height of 1.7 meters, a model-like figure, a graceful and exquisite face without makeup, but stunningly beautiful! She is Quinn Gilbert, Maverick Steele's wife, nicknamed little Bean.
