Chapter 808: Chapter 808 Rescue
Chapter 808 -808 Rescue
“Are we really going to attend Fernando Lee’s funeral?”
Beckett Carmichael sat in the car, asking very seriously.
The loss of a middle-aged man’s son, Nikodem Lee, was enough to shake the capital!
Originally, Fernando Lee’s engagement to Sophia Leocadia was naturally called off with the death of one party.
At such a sensitive time, Beckett Carmichael was obviously hesitant.
If they really went, they would undoubtedly become the targets of public criticism.
The stakes were too high.
Many business owners who had bet all their fortunes on the alliance between the Leocadia and Lee families would definitely blame Beckett Carmichael for their losses.
“You, a descendant of a martial champion, are getting cold feet?”
Julius Reed looked at Beckett Carmichael with a smile.
“Heh heh…”
Beckett Carmichael scratched his head and said with an awkward laugh, “I’ve always thought myself quite reckless, but only after meeting you, Brother Davenport, did I realize what ‘arrogant’ really means.”
Originally, he thought Julius Reed wanted to cure Fernando Lee’s illness, only to have him pinned down in prison forever.
But after a busy day, through to the very end,
when the show was over,
Beckett Carmichael finally realized.
Julius Reed had never wanted Fernando Lee to live.
He had used someone else’s hand to have Fernando Lee die right in front of Nikodem Lee.
It was not just murder, but also a direct hit to the heart.
“Saving people is troublesome, killing is simple,” Julius Reed sat in the back of the car, looking at the street lights outside: “That’s why I rarely save people.”
In fact, even before saving Bamboo Whitaker, Medicine King Valley had already seen its share of deaths.
“Then…
the funeral of Fernando Lee…”
Beckett Carmichael raised his eyebrows: “Shall we go there with great fanfare?”
“Do you hate Nikodem Lee?”
Julius Reed asked aloud.
“Mr.
Lee calculated against me with all his might—that vendetta, I must avenge!”
Beckett Carmichael shone in the capital, but since the Koller Family entered the game, he had been put in jeopardy.
Nikodem Lee, who used to nod and bow at the sight of him, now dared to openly challenge him!
“Then I will…
ensure he can’t even hold a funeral.”
Julius Reed was saying this when the car suddenly stopped abruptly.
“Eli Yarrow!
How are you driving!”
Beckett Carmichael, caught off guard, slammed into the front seat.
He instantly developed a large bump on his head.
“There’s someone ahead!”
Eli Yarrow quickly got out of the car and pulled a box of concealed weapons from his waist.

“Who’s there!”
He pointed at a bloodied person on the ground, his eyes filled with vigilance.
At the same time, the other two cars behind them also came to a stop.
“CEO Carmichael!
What’s the situation?”
A few bodyguards got out of the cars and immediately surrounded the car Beckett Carmichael was in.
They were on high alert.
In extraordinary times!
They had to be cautious!
This wasn’t a suburb, but an urban area!
With the usual traffic, it made no sense for someone to cause trouble here.
“Mr.
Reed, please be careful!
I’ll go down and take a look.”
Just as Beckett Carmichael was about to get out of the car, he was stopped by Julius Reed: “There’s no use for you to go; let me check it out.”
With that said,
he pushed the car door open and strode toward the front of the car.
There shouldn’t be too many people around.
At least with his keen senses, he didn’t detect any enemies.
“Brother Davenport, this man is severely injured.”
Eli Yarrow squatted down, one hand holding the concealed weapons box and the other gently placed on the injured man’s chest.
“But he’s still breathing.”
“Let me take a look.”
Julius Reed carefully examined the injured man.
He was young.
In his twenties.
He looked trained.
His body was robust.
But now he was suffering from internal injuries, his organs were impacted, and his condition was very serious.
Suddenly, his eyes settled on the man’s clothes.
That was…
Clothes made of coarse cloth, a rarity nowadays.
Gently turning the man over, he discovered a strange symbol on the back of the clothes.
“Brother Davenport, this pattern is very unusual!”
Eli Yarrow took a careful look, but he didn’t know the meaning of the pattern.
That was a bank of white clouds, and beneath the clouds stood a mountain peak that soared high into the sky!
It pierced the heavens!
“Willson Pavilion…”
Julius Reed squinted his eyes, stood up, and instructed Eli Yarrow, “Wake him up immediately, and as soon as there is any news, notify me right away.”
People from Willson Pavilion have appeared in the capital.
It looks like they know of my whereabouts and have come to seek help.
But what exactly did they go through to leave the man with such severe injuries?
The skills of Willson Pavilion’s people are extraordinary; there aren’t many who could inflict such damage on them.
It seems that the man was injured by an explosion.
On his clothes and body, there are small burn marks.
“Then you…”
With a wave of his hand, Eli Yarrow had staff members rush over and carefully load the man into a vehicle.
They left quickly.
“I’m going to Dragon Bay Park.”
Julius Reed turned to get into his car, glanced at his watch, “The time is almost up.”
“You have an appointment?”
Beckett Carmichael asked curiously.
“An old friend.”
Julius Reed slowly closed his eyes.
He began pondering the matter of tomorrow’s auction.
Thunderpeak Hall has already made their move; Granny Xihua will definitely not miss such a chance.
But…
The mastermind behind Ivan Reed doesn’t seem to be in league with Granny Xihua.
And that mysterious woman from Five-river Province who could mobilise the Wolf Cavalry also appears not to be with them.
Then Lily Jorden…
Every time Julius Reed thought of Lily Jorden, an unnamed rage welled up in his heart.
But now was not the time to execute Nine Spirits and their ilk.
At least for the moment, Lily Jorden was absolutely safe.
Granny Xihua wants to use this woman against me; as long as I am alive, Lily Jorden will always be safe.
The car drove slowly.
After the recent incident, Eli Yarrow was extremely cautious.
Constantly looking around while driving, worried about encountering an attack.
In such a critical period, this was necessary.
Dragon Bay Park was to the northwest of the capital.
It was adjacent to the wealthy district.
Come evening, many people would gather here, chatting and taking a walk.
With a bit of luck, you could even see quite a few celebrities.
At this moment.
Julius Reed appeared alone in Dragon Bay Park.
Sauntering with his hands clasped behind his back.
“Brother Davenport.”
Less than half a minute after his appearance.
Karen, sneaky with a duckbill cap on, also appeared in Dragon Bay Park.
“How did it go?”
Pretending not to see Karen, Julius Reed stood alone on a simple piece of fitness equipment, leisurely spinning it around.
“Natalia Leocadia really did poison us.
I’m fine, but Terry Moore got poisoned, though your antidote successfully neutralized the poison in his body.”
Karen muttered softly.
“Brother Davenport, how did you know the Leocadia Family Members would poison us?”
This was his biggest puzzle.
“Here, this is a packet of poison.
Before I go to the Leocadia Family, slip it into the Leocadia Family Members’ food.”
Julius Reed quietly stretched out a hand.
In his grasp was a packet folded from kraft paper.
“There’s an Inner Sect Disciple from Medicine King Valley in the Leocadia Family.
I’m worried…”
“Drown those who can swim, beat those with tough hides.”
Julius Reed murmured softly.
“I understand!”
Karen nodded, pocketing the packet.
“What do you understand?”
Julius Reed suddenly turned his head to ask.
“The people from Medicine King Valley must be overconfident and negligent; drowning those who can swim means we have a chance to succeed in poisoning them.”
Karen said with a sense of revelation.
“No!”
Julius Reed shook his head, “What I mean is, if you keep asking questions, I’ll beat you to death.”
Karen was taken aback, her eyebrows shooting up instantly.
“On the poison packet, you’ll find the latest instructions I have for Terry Moore.”
After finishing his statement, Julius Reed turned and left, “Remember, do this job neatly.”
