Jonford.


    Watson Estate.


    Kai and Queenie were summoned by Walter to return to the mansion as quickly as possible.


    The two were stunned as soon as they stepped foot into the living room.


    All senior members of the Watson family were seated in the living room.


    “Mom, Dad, what are you guys doing back in the country?”


    Queenie stared at a middle-aged couple in disbelief. Her parents ran a business overseas and had


    been preparing for a business conference recently. It was only logical to assume they would not have


    the time to travel home and visit.


    Walter spoke from his ce on the middle couch, “I summoned them home!”


    Queenie smiled and hurried to sit down next to her mother.


    Queenie’s father, Kevin Watson, spoke. “Everyone is here now, Father. Please tell us what’s on your


    mind!”


    Walter swept his stern gaze over everyone present.


    The Watson family members stiffened. Not one of them dared look him in the eye.


    Kai leaned backzily onto the couch and lit a cigarette.


    “Howard Lane is dead!”


    Walter spoke in a solemn tone.


    Kai, who was in the middle of lighting his cigarette, froze. He looked at Walter disbelievingly.


    Walter turned to Kai and asked cooly, “You haven’t been in touch with Simon as ofte, have you?”


    Kai averted his gaze.


    An odd expression appeared on Queenie’s face.


    George and Janson exchanged nces.


    Kai and Simon had been talking to each other up till… yesterday!


    “Bastard…”


    Walter gleaned the information he was fishing for from the looks on their faces and cursed angrily.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    “How did Howard die, father?”


    Ken Watson was extremely protective of his dead brother’s son and immediately spoke up to


    distract Walter upon realizing he was losing his temper.


    “Last night, Howard and the Nutcracker, Giant, and Unibrow Juggernaut from the Green Bamboo


    Association lost their lives!”


    Walter spoke slowly.


    He continued ring at Kai as he spoke.


    He had also received another piece of information.


    Last night, Simon Lane had been spotted lurking around the Zabel house with thirty grandmasters.


    Walter knew what they were trying to do.


    The Watson family would face imminent disaster if Kai was involved inst night’s happenings.


    Queenie rarely saw her grandfather this angry. She held her mother’s arm as she spoke in a careful,


    analytical manner, “The Smiling Grim Reaper showed upst night, iming he had a mission… If


    that’s the case, the mission he referred to must have been the assassination of Howard and the three


    juggernauts from the Green Bamboo Association!”


    Walter took a deep breath before saying slowly, “The Smiling Grim Reaper was at the Zabel house the


    entire night. The deaths of Howard and the three juggernauts remain a mystery for now!”


    If it were the Smiling Grim Reaper’s doing, he would not be as angry with Kai as he was now. After all,


    there were no ill feelings between the Watson family and the Smiling Grim Reaper. Whatever had


    befallen the Lane family would not happen to him.


    He was worried Nash Calcraft had something to do with Howard’s death.


    Last night, he had gone through everything that had happened recently.


    Six of the Green Bamboo Association’s juggernauts had first arrived at Jonford because Nash had


    killed Crow.


    The Hidden-Ghost Juggernaut had brought several men with him to gatecrash the Zabel family’s


    martial arts school, while the Grim-Faced Juggernaut apanied her granddaughter, Wanda York, to


    challenge the current champion, Bianca Lawson.


    Skadi and Bianca were both good friends with Hera Lewis.
