Chapter 159 Teaching Mandy A Lesson Again
“Grandpa, the Royle family and the Green family have already left Jadeborough with Vilmar’s remains
and the rest.”
During lunchtime, Stephen once again visited Nathan’s home.
Nathan nodded and said, “As long as they leave, that’s fine. Otherwise, I’ll have no choice but to send
someone to drive them away.”
“However, the person watching them sent back a photo.”
“A photo?”
Stephen pulled out a photo from his pocket and handed it to Nathan. “The vice-captain of Daragon
Force, Brutus, was seen in the hospital morgue, spending about ten minutes alone with Jeovani. His
arrival and departure from the hospital were both deliberately disguised as if he was worried about
being discovered.”
After Nathan heard that, his face instantly turned gloomy.
When he took another look at the photo, it was indeed Brutus without his mask.
“When did Brutus come to Jadeborough?”
Before Stephen arrived, he had already conducted an investigation. “I called Jace,” he said, “He told
me that the task involving Brutus is special, so special that even he isn’t clear about it. All he said was
that Brutus has been in Jadeborough for almost a week!”
He paused before adding, “Additionally, there are three other people-Yuvan Lowe, also known as Little
Tyrant, from the Weatherby family, Yasmine Snape from the Snape family, and Catherine Lane from the NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
Lane family.”
Nathan closed his eyes and pondered for a moment.
When he opened his eyes, his face was no longer shrouded in gloom. “They’re all from Hank’s camp
and right at the critical moment of the confrontation between the Wahlstrom family and the Zymons
family. It seems Hank has extended his reach from the North.”
A hint of concern crossed Stephen’s face. “Grandpa, is Hank planning to meddle in the southern
region?”

Nathan rose to his feet, hands clasped behind his back. “Hank is hailed as the top young master of
Durbaine, excelling in both literature and martial arts, a prodigy among youths. Even in his early teens,
he knew how to win people’s hearts, gathering a group of followers, his popularity surpassing the
successors of the other families. If I’m not mistaken, Vilmar is the person he’s taken a liking to and
wants to win over. Otherwise, it’s impossible to explain why Brutus appeared in the hospital and even
spent more than ten minutes alone with Jeovani.”
Stephen was naturally well aware of the behavior and style of Durbaine’s number one young master.
With a serious expression, he said, “Grandpa, should we intervene? I can’t help but feel there’s
something more behind the confrontation between the Wahlstrom family and the Zymons family…”
Stephen didn’t continue with what he was saying, trusting that Nathan would understand.
O
Nathan, with his hands clasped behind his back, walked toward the room. “Durbaine’s approach to
nurturing the younger generation is quite straightforward. As long as it doesn’t affect the fundamentals,
they won’t interfere. In fact, they are very pleased to see the outstanding performance of the
generation. There’s no need for interference. Go ahead and pretend you don’t know about this. But
keep a closer eye on Finnegan. I suspect Brutus has already set his sights on him.”
“Understood!”
Nathan returned to his own room.
He picked up an old-looking landline phone from the desk and dialed a number.

Once the call connected, Nathan said, “As expected, Hank has made his move. But it seems Finnegan
unintentionally disrupted him a bit. I reckon they’ll be confronting each other soon.”
A hearty laugh from an old man came through the phone, “Nathan, aren’t you a bit slow on the uptake?
You’re just finding out now?”
Nathan gave a bitter smile. “It seems the few of you know everything. So, what are you really
thinking?”
“The future ultimately belongs to the young. Let them take charge, and let the best rise above the rest!”
“I understand now.”
In the blink of an eye, it was already afternoon.
The Wahlstrom family had arrived in Jadeborough. Alisha was leading a group to welcome them, while
Finnegan had also returned to Dragon Bay with Doom Star.
However, instead of going straight home, he took Doom Star to Dragon Bay No. 2 Villa.
The b*dyguards and servants of the Langdon family all recognized Finnegan.
4.
Upon seeing him, they greeted him one after another, “Mr. Larkin!”
Finnegan sighed and asked, “It’s Sunday today. Ms. Langdon didn’t go out, did she?”
“Ms. Langdon is in the room.”
Nodding his head, Finnegan said to Doom Star. “Take a look around first. From now on, you’ll be living
here.”
With his aloof personality and his habit of casually holding a black saber, it’s definitely not a good idea
to bring Doom Star home.
Afterward, Finnegan walked into another room.
Familiar with the way, he arrived at Mandy’s room with ease.
The door was slightly ajar, and the sound of a television playing could be heard.
As Finnegan approached, he peered through the slightly ajar door. Instantly, his blood surged, and he
felt an overwhelming urge to have a nosebleed.

Inside the house, Mandy, dressed in tight-fitting yoga attire, was performing a series of complex yoga
poses, each one perfectly outlining her exquisite b*dy curves.
The visual impact it gave was extraordinary.
However, Finnegan took a glance and then directly pushed the door
open.
“Ms. Langdon, you’re quite liberal, aren’t you? Not wearing much underneath?”
Mandy was taken aback for a moment before she reacted.
On the contrary, she wasn’t really feeling awkward or embarrassed.
She stood up. “How did you get here?”
As she spoke, her eyes flickered, not daring to meet Finnegan’s gaze.
She already knew about what happened last night, and she was afraid that Finnegan might come to
settle the score with her out of anger,
But the more she feared something, the more likely it was to happen.
With a swift motion, Finnegan closed the door behind him and locked it. He then walked over to draw
the curtains shut.
Upon seeing this, Mandy panicked. “Finnegan, what are you planning to do?”
“It’s nothing much. I just wanted to teach you another lesson so you’ll stop playing mind games with me
in the future.”
“No!”

However, Mandy’s apologies and pleas were in vain as Finnegan exacted his revenge, leaving Mandy
in unbearable misery. In the end, she could only grit her teeth and remain silent.
After a full twenty minutes, Finnegan finally stopped and went to the bathroom to wash his hands.
Upon returning, he noticed Mandy’s visible distress and flushed face. “I think you should take a bath to
freshen up.”
With clenched teeth, Mandy pushed Finnegan aside and walked into the bathroom.
Her pride and self-respect completely vanished in his presence.
Regret consumed her entirely.
She vowed never to play the same tricks on Finnegan again.
Finnegan pulled back the curtains and sat by the window, leisurely picking up his phone to play a
game.
After a long while, Mandy emerged from the bathroom, wrapped in a towel, casting wary glances at
Finnegan.
She finally understood why Finnegan was known as the devil!
Finnegan glanced at her and set down his phone. “You have no reason to feel aggrieved. Do you know
what Josephine would have endured last night if I hadn’t been somewhat capable? So you should feel
relieved now. Josephine is safe.”
If anything had happened to Josephine last night, Finnegan would undoubtedly have sought revenge
on Mandy.
Mandy, who had been slightly resentful, trembled, her face serious. “I was wrong!”
Finnegan stretched lazily and stood up. “It’s good that you realize your mistake. Otherwise, the
consequences won’t be as simple next time.”
Also, I have a friend named Doom Star. Could you please arrange his accommodation?”
With that, Finnegan left immediately.
Listening to his fading footsteps, Mandy finally sat down, feeling drained.
Her face flushed crimson, l*ps tightly pressed together. “Can I still consider myself innocent? How can I
face the world if this gets out?”
Reflecting on everything Finnegan had done to her just moments ago, she, who had always been aloof,
realized that her arrogance was worthless in front of Finnegan…
