Moon Warriors novel Chapter 41

Suddenly, two people entered through the front gates of the Reynold’s villa. One was about twenty-four or twenty-five years of age and whose face looked quite pale. The other was about thirty years old, looked quite well-to-do and walked at a speedy pace.

Cruz knew them both; one of them was Andrew Stone, son-in-law of the Clark family. The other was Ray Fraser’s distinguished guest, the Vice President of the Southwest Region, Phoenix Morgan.

Phoenix was born from a distinguished family; anyone who’s anyone in K City knew that well. As the VP of the Southwest Region, he held an incredibly high, powerful position. Not even members of the Turner family would be able to invite someone of this stature.

But now, Phoenix was right behind the Clark family’s son-in-law, with a scowl on his face; he looked more like a bodyguard! Everyone from the Reynold’s family stood and watched in awe. Did this Andrew Stone hold a position that’s even higher than that of Phoenix Morgan?!

Suddenly, Cruz thought of a rumor that had been going around; someone big and important from K City was going to arrive soon. He thought the rumors were referring to Ray Fraser, but apparently not.

It wasn’t Ray nor Phoenix, but this guy, this son-in-law of the Clark family!

“What do you want?” Freddy stood up and shoved his daughter Isabel behind him. He was just talking about how he had to look into Andrew bullying his daughter; and now, speak of the devil, here was Andrew.

What else could their sudden appearance mean? If not to conduct an investigation?

Andrew said nothing, but continued to walk forward.

“Someone, come quick!” Freddy shouted out in panic.

But no one answered throughout the house.

“Did you really think I would have come without any prior preparations?” Andrew said as he let out a cold smirk.

Freddy seemed to realized something; it was quite off that no guards came to his beckoning.

“Did, did you kill them all?” Freddy looked and asked in horror.

These words caused a panic to spread across the villa; even Cruz, who had seen his share of rough times, was left speechless!

“Don’t worry, Cruz Reynolds, I didn’t kill a single person in your family.” Andrew said in a steady tone.

Cruz swallowed hard and took a quick glance at Phoenix, who looked like a bodyguard and said nothing since he arrived. Then he returned his gaze to Andrew.

Phoenix was easily capable of calling in troops to wreak havoc and destroy the Reynold’s family at any time. Just who was this Andrew Stone? What kind of person was capable of ordering Phoenix around like his personal guard!?

“If you’re not here to kill my family, what do you want?” Freddy asked in an anxious manner, “Are you here to take my daughter?”

As he spoke, he gripped Isabel’s hand tightly!

He truly demonstrated his fatherly love at this moment!

“Freddy, what are you doing?” Cruz realized that things were not as simple as they looked.

“Father, he’s the one who bullied Isabel, and now here he is; he’s definitely up to no good!” Freddy was incredibly worried that Isabel would get hurt again.

“Shut up!” Freddy scolded in anger.

He then turned to Phoenix and Andrew and said, “Mr. Morgan, Mr. Stone, it’s my fault; please have mercy. Let me apologize on behalf of my granddaughter’s misdoings.”

The corner of Andrew’s mouth slightly twitched; he said in an expressionless manner, “She’s just a child. If I really wanted to kill her, she’d have never been able to set foot back in your home!”

Andrew spoke these words in a calm manner, but it was as though thunder had struck the heads of the Reynolds family.

After he was done speaking, Andrew was already in the main hall of the villa, and he stared at Cruz.

Isabel was terrified by Andrew’s powerful presence that she was completely mute; her entire body quivered in fear as she held onto Freddy’s hand.

It was as though Andrew underwent a transformation; he no longer looked or acted like the Andrew she recalled. He used to be a good-for-nothing bum, who didn’t even dare speak loudly. But who knew he was so powerful. Every word he said terrified the Reynolds!

Now, she was deeply regretting having ever bullied Emily. If there was a way to go back to the past, she’d definitely stopped her past self from bullying Emily!

“Cruz, is this how you treat your guests?” Phoenix finally spoke.

“Please, sit! No, wait, please take a seat here!” Cruz immediately stood up and offered his seat.

Andrew waved and said, “No need; I’m just here to say a few words then leave.”

Andrew bluntly said, “I want you to sever all ties with the Turner family, including business, socially, and all.”

Cruz froze up; before he could say anything, other members of the family spoke out, “We can’t do that, we depend on the Turners. Don’t you know how many businesses they own in K City?”

“Not going into the businesses they forthrightly own, they bought out all of the Clark family’s businesses as well. Sure, the Clarks aren’t part of the family, but everyone knows they did it.”

“That’s right; they own at least 50% of the businesses in K City. If you won’t have us work with them, how can we possibly survive by ourselves?”

Andrew chuckled menacingly, “I’m not here to negotiate; this is an order!”

“If you won’t comply, I’ll send your family right away; I’ll make sure of it.”

After he finished speaking, Andrew turned to leave, and the rest of the Reynolds family began to look at one another.

“Dad, what are we going to do?” Freddy asked first.

“If we do cut ties to the Turners, Asher Turner will definitely come after us.”

“But if we don’t cut ties to them, Andrew and Phoenix will come end us as well.”

“End us? Just who does he think he is? Are we that easy to end, just because he said so?”

Thoughts raced through Cruz’s mind; he was silent for a while, then he said, “Freddy, give the order to cut all ties with the Turners.”

“Father, are we really going to give in like this? If we team up with the Turners, surely we can take on Andrew?”

“Besides, if we cut ties to them, they’ll definitely come after us!”

Cruz raised his hand and sternly said, “Who has more authority, the Turners, or that of the Regions?”

The Reynolds family members exchanged glances; the answer was blatantly obvious.

“Don’t you get it? This son-in-law of the Clarks family is here on behalf of the Clarks family. The Turners took everything from the Clarks, forcing his adoptive father to commit suicide. Now, he’s back for revenge.”
