Chapter 82 Isn't It Good to Be Alive?
"What? You also know Morgan Group, Mr. Cliff? You didn't seem to look well when you heard us speak of Morgan Group just now! ..." Jane glanced at Iwan and asked.
Also seeming to realize it, Jayna looked at Iwan and asked, "Oh, oh, right, Iwan. Five years ago, before you went to the External Regions, you were also in Cleveque City, weren't you? Do you know Morgan Group then?" Jayna looked at Iwan, full of expectations.
Iwan felt so helpless, thinking, "Alas, how stupid my wife is! She even asked me such a question." But he didn't show a trace of it on his face. Instead, he pretended to know something, saying, "Yes, I've also heard of it. The person is outstanding, but I didn't expect that Morgan Group is the top one in Cleveque City today..."
Jane smiled and nodded at Iwan, saying, "Yes, yes, of course. Back then, the man was a living legend, but he disappeared later. At that time, I had just come to Cleveque City for my internship. As soon as I came, I heard the man's legend, but I had no chance to see him. Besides, Mr. Cliff, you are so much like the legend of Cleveque City! You left the city five years ago, and you're back now. Then, Mr. Cliff... wait, wait! You, you, you, you're surnamed Cliff?" As she spoke, her expression suddenly changed dramatically. The next moment, she rose to her feet, as if she had run into a ghost!
It was because she suddenly thought of one thing! She seemed to have heard that the legend of Cleveque City at that time was also surnamed Cliff! And Jayna had just said that the Iwan Cliff in front of them left Cleveque City five years ago. This time was exactly the same as the time the legend disappeared!
"What? Jane, what's wrong with you? Iwan's family name is Cliff. What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?" Jayna asked Jane naively.
As she waved her hand, Jane said to Jayna and watched Iwan, "No, no, Jayna, you don't know something. The founder of Morgan Group is also surnamed Cliff! And he also suddenly disappeared from Cleveque City five years ago..." After Jane finished speaking, Jayna looked at Iwan suspiciously.
Iwan smiled, looked at the two ladies, and feeling speechless, said, "Uh, so many people's family name is Cliff. You ladies won't think I am the founder of Morgan Group, will you? There are 20 million people in Cleveque City! You suspect me? Uh, how could that be possible? How could I be so excellent?"
Iwan smiled a little speechlessly. Only when she heard Iwan's answer did Jane pat her chest and say, "Whoop, I was so frightened. I even thought I met him! Well, let's end the chat. Let's go to cook now!"
Jayna also said to Jane with a smile, "Yes, yes, you thought too much, Jane. My husband has no talent for business! He opened a small company back then, but he was trapped. One doesn't know others' intentions. Iwan was almost killed by that person that year. He's too kind, and he'll easily trust others. Come on, come on, order dishes, order dishes. Jane, I'll ask you to cook a lot of dishes and eat them today!"
"Uh..." Jane had just stopped worrying, but after she heard Jayna speak of Iwan's experiences, she began to worry again. Looking at Jayna with a stiff expression, she asked, "Jayna, what, what... what you just said is a joke, right? Those days, your husband opened a company and was trapped and almost killed? Don't tease me!"
Jayna said stupidly, "No, it's true! Later, Iwan went to the battlefields in the External Regions. Alas... Jane, I won't talk about them. Order dishes. I'm hungry..."
Jane turned her head and looked deeply at Iwan sitting opposite her. She was shocked, thinking, "The man in front of me is really so mysterious and so confident. I've met numerous successful
people in Cleveque City, but none of them has the air and confidence Iwan has. Is the legendary figure who founded Morgan Group Iwan Cliff? The rumors say that the legendary figure is also surnamed Cliff and that he was also framed and hunted by the friend he trusted most before he disappeared for five years. All these things match the experiences of the Iwan Cliff in front of me perfectly. If the man before me is the legendary figure of the past, that is so... so shocking."
At this moment, Jane kept her suspicion of Iwan to herself. This was so unbelievable. She didn't think Iwan was the legendary man of those days, but she still had suspicions. She didn't say anything anymore. Instead, she went to order dishes with Jayna. Anyway, this was her first meeting with Jayna and Iwan. As for whether Iwan was the legend of Cleveque City of five years ago or not, she would have plenty of opportunities to find it out...
But Iwan glanced at Jane with a smile. In fact, he was so gloomy now. He sighed secretly that these beautiful women were never those who were sexy but didn't have brains as people on the internet described them. Instead, every one of them was smart with very sharp senses. Earlier, he found Jayna's close friend Scarlett Mond was like that; now he found Jane was like that.
"Alas..." Iwan sighed deeply in his mind, thinking this was agonizing. His wife's friends were all smart, but his wife was stupid and naive. As a stupid, native woman, could she really be able to carve out a career in Cleveque City through her hard work? Iwan doubted it deeply at this moment.
Today was Sunday, and Jane didn't have to go to work. Therefore, after lunch, Jayna wanted to spend more time with Jane. After all, the two of them hadn't seen each other for more than five years, and they had a lot of words to speak to each other. Knowing this, Iwan went back alone.
When he got home, Iwan saw Warrior No.1 chatting with Jacey in the pavilion downstairs. Far away from them, he didn't know what they were chatting about. Anyway, his sister-in-law looked very happy. From time to time, she would look at Warrior No.1 with worshipping eyes.
"Uh, this guy wants to chase after my sister-in-law?" An unimaginable idea flashed across Iwan's mind. Then he walked toward them. Seeing Iwan walk over, Jacey and Warrior No.1 stopped chatting with smiles.
Jacey greeted Iwan and left, while Warrior No.1 rose to his feet and stopped smiling, calling Iwan big brother.
Iwan looked at him and asked, "What's going on between you and Jacey? I saw you two chatting very happily! Are you two dating?"
"Uh..." Warrior No.1's face immediately stiffened. Then he instantly waved his hands and said, "No. What are you talking about, brother? How could I date Jacey? She's your sister-in-law! I don't have the guts! I had something to tell you, but you were not at home, so I waited for you here..."
Iwan nodded and said, "It doesn't matter. If you really like Jacey, I won't stop you. If you like her, go chase after her."
Hearing it, Warrior No.1 almost cried because he really didn't dare. After thinking for a while, he said very bitterly, "Brother, I did come to you for something because it's hard to make it clear on the phone. I do have something to tell you! ..." He almost shed tears. He could not imagine that the Lord of Heaven Domain, who was always quite serious and whom he called big brother in private, would play such a joke on him.
Seeing Warrior No.1's anxiety, Iwan asked, "You're serious? Then tell me. I'll listen and see what the thing you can't make clear on the phone is..."
When he heard it, Warrior No.1 became quite serious and whispered, "Brother, it's about the Cliffs that drove you out of the Cliff family back then..."
"Oh? It's about the Cliffs?" The moment Iwan heard it, his face turned ice-cold, and his eyes glistened with a chill.
Warrior No.1 seriously nodded and said, "Right, brother. The Cliffs in Gotham City have also received the news that you and Jayna held the Grand Wedding in Pasoland. They've also found out that you asked Rendon Scott to make you a God of War of the External Regions. They even held a family council because of it. Neil, Troy, and others, from the collateral line of the Cliff family, wanted to try their best to take you back to the Cliff family, but your father objected. Of course, he made a compromise in the end, agreeing to let you go back. Therefore, Troy, the younger brother of the Cliff family's head, arrived in Pasoland yesterday because he didn't know you had come to Cleveque City, so he didn't see you. But he is now on the way to Cleveque City. I think he will come to you today or tomorrow..."
After hearing these words, Iwan sneered, "Huh, take me back to the family? Who said I was going back? Or does it mean that I must go back because they ask me to? Naive... That year, when the woman forced Andy to kick me out of the house, those people didn't put in a good word for me. Haha... now they know I have the God of War's identity, so they want me to go back, eh? Haha, Warrior No.1, do you think I'll agree?"
Warrior No.1 nodded and said a little sarcastically, "No, you won't go back, of course, brother. The younger head of the Cliff family will come here in vain. I'm very clear about it, but brother, what I want to tell you is something else. Lily Swift, the woman of the Cliff family who kicked you out of the house that year, has taken action..."
Hearing it, Iwan went furious, his heart turning icy. In an instant, the temperature of the air around them dropped. Iwan narrowed his eyes and asked, "How does the woman want to do it? Have you guys found it out?"
Warrior No.1 nodded with cold eyes and said, "Yes, we have. The woman has hired dozens of top killers with a lot of money. They had gone to Pasoland with Troy last night. Of course, they didn't see you there, either. According to the news brought by our subordinates, those killers are moving toward Cleveque City. We think they'll act tonight."
He paused but then said hurriedly, "Don't worry, brother. We've found all their whereabouts, and Warrior No.7 and Warrior No.9 are heading for their base camp. Besides, we've arranged for people to protect Jayna and her family. They are perfectly safe! None of the killers are Powerhouses at the level of the God of War. As for Lily Swift, she is unable to find killers at the level of the God of War."
After that, Iwan fell silent. After a long while, he took a deep breath, looked at the Jayna and his house in the distance, and slowly said, "Warrior No.1, you know, I even dropped the idea to avenge the enmity between me and the Cliffs, and I would have no relations with them then. If I say that, will you believe me?"
Warrior No.1 nodded quite seriously before saying, "Yes, brother, I believe you! You would do that for the sake of Jayna and Emily! You don't want to kill so many people, but brother, I have to tell you something. People are like this. Sometimes we want to forget, but it's not up to us to make the decision. There're always some self-righteous idiots coming to commit suicide..."
Iwan nodded and said, "Yes, indeed! There're always some self-righteous idiots coming to commit suicide..."
Iwan's eyes turned ice-cold the next moment. He took a deep breath and slowly said, "I didn't think about embarrassing my father so much, but since the woman wants to die, I shall not show her mercy! Warrior No.1, tell Warrior No.7 and Warrior No.9 to keep the evidence that Lily Swift hired killers to kill me. Besides, when my uncle Troy arrives, ask him not to come to me until tonight. Then I'll hand those killer's heads to him..."
Warrior No.1 had a cold smile and slowly said, "Okay..."
"Haha... use a bunch of killers each with half the strength of the God of War to kill the Lord of Heaven Domain, the top-level powerhouse in the world? This might be the most entertaining joke since the foundation of the Dragon Kingdom. None of them will go back alive tonight, and the woman hiding in the Cliffs' house is really dead. She could avoid death five years ago, but Christ could not save her this time even if he came..." he thought.
After Iwan left, Warrior No.1 turned and looked in the direction where the Cliffs' house in Gotham City was, mumbling, "Isn't it good to enjoy your peaceful, rich life? Why do you stubbornly want to do something that will kill you? Why? ... really ignorant, terrifyingly ignorant! ..."Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
