Chapter 81 the Gathering
Chapter 81 the Gathering
Yank Wood lay on the bed, unable to fall asleep. The words on the envelope kept appearing in his
mind. Before he could settle the Long family's affairs, this new trouble came to him.
A year ago, when Yank Wood was carrying out a mission, he had intended to kill the boss of a terrorist
and saved a girl by accident. Because the girl was seriously injured and unconscious, he had no choice
but to take her back to the base of the House family for treatment.
After half a month of careful care, the girl recovered very well. At the same time, she also fell in love
with Wang Ye. But at that time, Yank Wood was not in the mood to care about the affairs between men
and women. He always pretended to be confused and avoided her feelings.
In the end, Yank Wood had no choice but to refuse her with the excuse that he would never get married
for the rest of his life.
The girl was greatly hurt and called her family after she recovered. It was not until this time that Yank
Wood knew that she was Elena Howard, the daughter of the Howard family in Herinton. Her schedule
was betrayed by the traitor, and she was taken hostage by terrorists to threaten the Howard family to
pay a huge ransom.
The Howard family came to pick up Elena Howard and gave Yank Wood a generous reward. Before
leaving, she told Yank Wood that she would always wait for him and would not fall in love with anyone.
Yank Wood didn't take it seriously. He thought that she, the daughter of a big family, would definitely
meet many excellent men and forget about him.
Later, his master had an accident, so he sent token to Yank Wood to find Lucy Long in Bayland to get
married, so he naturally did as he said.
Yank Wood couldn't figure out how Elena Howard found out that he was in Bayland.
But the key point now was that Yank Wood knew that Elena Howard knew that she had been cheated.
She would definitely put the blame on Lucy Long. The Howard family was not an ordinary family, so it
was easy for her to hurt Lucy Long.
One night was destined to be sleepless.
Yank Wood didn't wake up until the afternoon because he didn't sleep all night. His mobile phone on
the table rang. When he picked it up, he was a little surprised. There were more than a dozen missed
calls on it. They were all from Lucy Long.
"Honey, how long has it been since you last saw me? Did you miss me so much?" After answering the
phone, Yank Wood joked. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
"I do not miss you. Get up quickly and come to Bayview. Frank Chad said that he wanted to thank you
for saving Mr. Chad and invited many people." Lucy Long quickly told him the purpose of the call.
This surprised Yank Wood. He wanted to ask a few more questions, but Lucy Long hung up the phone.
Just as he put down his mobile phone and was about to put on his clothes, Frank Chad also called him.
"Yank, I've booked a good private room at the Bayview Hotel. Do you want me to send someone to pick
you up now?"
"Don't be so polite, Mr. Chad. I have my own car. My wife and I will arrive on time."
Frank Chad told Yank Wood the location of the box, and then the two ended the call. He made the
decision and invited Lucy Long first. He also called some people from other families in Bayland to
accompany him, in order to give Yank Wood the grandest occasion.
This was also a signal to Yank Wood. He had accepted the request of Yank Wood that the Chad Family
would choose to stand on his side.
On the other side, Lucy Long was actually very surprised. She thought it was just a simple gathering,
but she didn't expect to hear from Frank Chad that Yank Wood had cured Mr. Chad's illness. This time,
he specially thanked Yank Wood.
She had a strange feeling in her heart. In the past, she thought that Yank Wood had benefited from the
Long family, but now she found that it was not the case. It seemed that she was relying on Yank Wood.
Lucy Long could choose not to go to this gathering, but if she didn't, no one knew that Yank Wood
wouldn't offend Frank Chad or anyone else. This would bring more trouble to the Long family. She had
to go to supervise Yank Wood.
Yank Wood's appearance could be said to be quite outstanding, and after dressing up, he was even
more handsome. Otherwise, he wouldn't have let others think that he was a gigolo. He looked down at
his own dressing, satisfied, and then went out.
He drove to Lucy Long's company, and the cool sports car became a scenery line on the road. Many
passers-by took photos with envy, thinking that some star had come.
Lucy Long had been waiting at the door for a long time. When she saw Yank Wood in the sports car,
she was also amazed.
In Lucy Long's impression, Yank Wood was dressed simply before. He wore camouflage pants like a
worker on the construction site, without much halo. But since he bought a sports car and changed his
clothes, his image had changed greatly!
Not to mention, it's kind of rich and handsome.
But soon, Lucy Long realized that she seemed to think too much. She immediately shook her head and
cleared all the messy thoughts. Then she got in the car, and they went to the Bayview Hotel.
However, when Lucy Long arrived at the gate of the Bayview Hotel, she was still shocked by the scene
in front of her. Today, the representatives of the relatively famous families in Bayland were all here, and
the scene was quite grand.
Seeing these, Lucy Long couldn't help but wonder if Frank Chad had made a big fuss. "It should not
make such a big fuss for gratitude!"
Seeing the confusion on Lucy Long's face, Yank Wood also guessed 70% to 80%. He was satisfied
with what Frank Chad had done. He was quite good at being a person and telling him the answer
indirectly.
Just as Yank Wood was about to enter the hotel with Lucy Long, he was suddenly stunned and
stopped where he was. Just now, he felt a pair of eyes behind him staring at him. This feeling was
familiar.
"Could it be Master?" Yank Wood couldn't help but murmur.
Seeing that Yank Wood suddenly stopped walking, Lucy Long asked in confusion, "Why do you look so
serious? Is it someone who owes you money?"
Yank Wood had always firmly believed that his master was still alive, but after thinking about it, he still
didn't intend to tell Lucy Long, which made her inexplicably worried.
Moreover, he was not sure.
"Nothing, let's go in!" Yank Wood shook his head with a smile.
At this moment, there was a surprised voice.
"Lucy, you're here too? This should be your husband, Yank Wood, right?" A woman looked at Yank
Wood and said.
Lucy Long also looked a little embarrassed when she saw her, but she couldn't deny it. Yank Wood was
her nominal husband, which was an indisputable fact.
Vivian Yeal looked at Lucy Long proudly. They used to be classmates. From the beginning, Lucy Long
was a campus belle. All the boys like Lucy. She had been dissatisfied with it for a long time.
When she was in college, she secretly vowed that she would find a better husband than Lucy Long.
Now she was the girlfriend of Shane Chad, the third young master of the Chad Family. Shane Chad
was much better than Yank Wood. Vivian Yeal would not let go of the opportunity to humiliate Lucy
Long.
At this moment, an arrogant voice sounded. A pair of big hands held Vivian Yeal's waist and said
disdainfully, "Baby, do you know them?"
