The Return of Lord

Chapter 3 I Am Back

After five years of being apart, Sharon was still as graceful as usual, and her appearance had hardly changed.

After several years of military life, Milton's appearance did not undergo any great changes, but he had become energetic. In Sharon's eyes, Milton was already a dead person, which was why she was both shocked and angry when she saw Milton again.

"Mom! It was me!"

A gentle smile appeared on Milton's face. He came back with the hope of making it up to Natalie.

"It's you, you piece of trash!"

Sharon finally confirmed that the man in front of her was Milton. She put her hands on her waists and looked demanding. She said angrily, "Well, you do know how to pick time. When Natalie is going to get married again, you come to make trouble, right?"

At this time, Jerry also ran over, and he saw Milton. Also, Jerry heard Sharon's words. Without saying a word, Jerry punched over at Milton. At the same time, Jerry angrily shouted, "I'll beat you to death, you bastard! How dare you come back!"

"Bang!"

A tall and sturdy figure arrived in an instant. The man grabbed Jerry's arm and said coldly, "No one has the right to touch him!"

That was Aryan.

Aryan had worked for Milton on the battlefield for many years. His figure was extremely tall and sturdy, and his appearance was fierce. His presence was impressive, and Jerry had a face full of horror.

"Get out!" Milton's voice was as cold as frost, his blade-like eyes landing on Aryan.

Although Aryan was very unwilling, he would not disobey Milton's orders. He could only let go of Jerry. "I'm sorry, Mr. Garner!"

"If you know you are wrong, then get out of here. In the future, without my orders, you are not allowed to interfere in anything," Milton said coldly.

At this moment, Milton unconsciously released a bit of his power. It was at this point that Jerry and Sharon realized that their previously trashy son-in-law had returned after disappearing for five years. He seemed to be a bit different. But this thought only flashed by their minds. In their eyes, Milton was still trash.

With Aryan doing this, Jerry and Sharon no longer dared to touch Milton.

"You got balls now. Even dare to touch me. Get out of here! Now!" Jerry said angrily. If Jerry wasn't afraid of Aryan, he would have already made his move toward Milton.

Milton's heart was burning with anger, but when he thought of the figure that he had missed for five years, he suppressed his anger. Milton reminded himself of his original task. He came back to make it up to Natalie, and he could endure anything just to win her back.

"We can't let him go. He came back just in time. Today, let him and Natalie go through the divorce procedures. Tomorrow, we will arrange the engagement for Natalie and Jaxson. So we don't have to get the death certificate for him."

Sharon quickly grabbed onto Milton's arm, afraid that if Milton left, she would never be able to find Milton again.

Jerry also came to a sudden realization and grabbed Milton's other arm. "That's right. When Natalie comes back, you can divorce her."

Milton was forcefully pulled into the courtyard. Those who didn't know the situation would think that they were excited about the reunion with their son-in-law.

In the house, there was a large banquet table in the living room. It was already full of people, all of whom were relatives from Sharon's side.

Among these relatives, there was an unfamiliar face. It was a young man covered in famous brands. Often, the man revealed his wrist, showing his valuable Rolex. The surrounding relatives seemed to be sitting around him.

At this moment, the young man was squinting at Milton, who was taken in by Sharon and Jerry.

On the dining table, there was a big cake. It looked like someone's birthday party.

But in Milton's memory, Jerry, Sharon, or Natalie, none of their birthdays were today. Milton didn't know whose birthday it was.

The relatives had been discussing applying for a death certificate for Milton. Now that Milton had appeared like this, everyone felt a wave of fear in their hearts. Quickly, their eyes shone, their spirits raised, and they looked like they were watching a show.

"Milton, didn't he go missing for five years? Why is he suddenly back?"

"He came back just right on time when Mr. Woods was going to marry Natalie. I'm afraid he has other thoughts when he comes back."

"Other thoughts? In front of Mr. Woods, he is just trash. Is he qualified to compete with Mr. Woods?"

Sharon's relatives were all discussing in low voices. However, it was unknown whether it was intentional or not. Although they had lowered their voices, everyone present could hear them. As for the young man called Mr. Woods, Jaxson, he had heard it.

Jaxson seemed to have heard nothing. He looked at Sharon and asked in confusion, "Mrs. Royston, who is this?"

Sharon sneered and looked at Milton with a look of disdain. "He's the one who disappeared for five years. I'm going to get him a death certificate, and then this piece of trash suddenly appeared. But don't worry, he came back just in time. To get a death certificate will take a lot of time, but since he's alive, they can go through divorce procedures today."

Sharon didn't hide her intention of getting Natalie divorced. After she finished speaking to Jaxson, she said with a proud expression, "Milton, this is Jaxson Woods, the eldest son of the Woods family in New York. In a few years, he will become the head of the Woods family. I advise you not to have any improper thoughts about Natalie anymore. We have agreed to their marriage.

"If you have self-awareness, when Natalie comes back, hurry up and settle the divorce procedures. Don't ruin Natalie's happiness."

The relatives at the table were all talking at the same time. In front of this future head of the Woods family, everyone wanted to use the opportunity to trample on Milton and curry favor with Jaxson.

There was a sharp glint in Milton's eyes, and it flashed away.

These relatives were annoying. If it weren't for Natalie, Milton could have taught them how to behave.

Jaxson was very satisfied. He leaned back in his seat, lightly shaking the goblet filled with red wine. He smiled at Milton and teased, "I wonder what you did during the five years you disappeared?"

Milton glanced at him indifferently. "I went to Alaska!"

"You went to Alaska? Did you raise pigs in Alaska for five years? Haha..."

Without waiting for Milton to respond, one of the relatives suddenly laughed out loud. The other relatives joined in the laughter.

Milton was silent.

The corners of Jaxson's mouth curled up into a smile. He casually took out a check and signed his name with a few strokes. He showed it to Milton and said heroically, "You have seen it. You're not welcome here. You must have come back for money. As long as you are willing to go through divorce procedures with Natalie, you can fill in the number on this check at will. Any bank in New York can immediately get the cash."

The eyes of the relatives of the Royston family lit up at this time. They wished that the check was for them.

"Jaxson, why did you give him money? Natalie is my daughter. If I want them to divorce, they must do it. There is no need to give him money." Sharon looked at the check as if that was her money and was given to Milton for nothing.

A trace of disdain flashed in the depths of Jaxson's eyes, but he still smiled and said, "Mrs. Royston, to me, money is just a number. I don't want to cause trouble. I just want Natalie to be single as soon as possible."

Hearing what Jaxson said, Sharon didn't dare to say anything more. She only looked at Milton with a colder gaze.

Under the envy of a relative, Milton picked up the check.

"Whoosh!"

Just when everyone thought Milton was going to accept it, Milton tore the check into pieces.

Then, he looked at Jaxson calmly. "If Natalie wants to divorce me, I will break my ties with the Royston family. But if she doesn't want to, no one can get in the way of our relationship."

If the soldiers of Alaska were present, they would know that Milton in this calm state was his most dangerous state.

Jaxson narrowed his eyes. Milton gave him a sense of pressure, which upset him.

The others all had a gloating look on their faces. Daring to offend Jaxson was simply courting death.

Just as the atmosphere was tense, a pair of high heels was heard trampling on the floor. Then two figures appeared. It was Natalie and a little girl.

"Jaxson, why are you here again? This is my home. You're not welcome here. Please get out of here immediately!" As soon as Natalie saw Jaxson, her face immediately darkened, and she directly asked him to leave.

Hearing this familiar voice, Milton, who had his back to the door, trembled violently!
