Marvin looked at Jackson in front of him expressionlessly and coughed, ignoring what he had said.
"What we do is just our own business. I'm afraid you don't have the right to judge us!"
"Huh!"
Jackson sneered and sat aside calmly, with his hands gently on his knees. A trace of frivolity flashed
across his enchanting face.
"Of course I don't want to get involved in other people's family affairs. But you have hurt the wrong
person this time. As an outsider, it's reasonable for me to teach you a lesson for your ancestors, isn't
it?"
The corners of his mouth lifted slightly. Marvin tapped his fingers on the table and didn't move at all. He
was very clear about his purpose, and there was no need to fight for the temporary anger.
"It's said that the power holder of the Gu family is brilliant. Today, I have seen it. But please understand
the current situation.
That woman is in my hands now. I have the final say in everything. No matter how powerful you are,
you still have weakness."
With a smile on his face, Jackson stared at Marvin and straightened his body quietly. His temples
throbbed, showing his anger.
"Mr. Marvin, you are right. But I wonder what's the purpose of your painstaking abduction?"
A faint smile appeared on Marvin's pale face, and he slowly took a sip of the tea.
"Mr. Jackson, you are a smart man. We didn't choose to retreat because we were afraid of your family's
power at that time. But I have to find our token back after you take it."
Now that the situation was clear, Jackson finally felt relieved. He took a deep breath and leaned against
the chair lazily, looking at the man in front of him.
Jackson had sent someone to investigate the Lian family and brought back the news that the grandson
of the Lian family was in poor health, so he had retired to cure the disease. It seemed to be true.
"I'm impressed by Mr. Marvin's persistent. But today is different from the past. The Lian family has been
retired for many years. Even if you have found the token, so what? How can your weak body support
you?"
"Since you know that I'm not in good health, you don't have to worry about dealing with me. I have
made a perfect plan to bring them here. I won't let you succeed.
Because of my illness, my patience has been worn out. If I accidentally hurt your people, things will be
difficult to handle."
Jackson narrowed his eyes dangerously and straightened his body. He took out a jade pendant from
his pocket stiffly and put it on the table at hand. His evil and attractive face was a little strange.
'Hester, you owe me a big favor this time. I have always been threatening people. How can I be
coerced by others?'
"Where is she?"
Marvin picked up the jade pendant in a calm manner and stroked the patterns on it. His wish for many
years had finally been fulfilled, and the joy was overflowing in his eyes.
If it was not because of his health, he wouldn't have to retire in the past. I was he who had done
something wrong to the elders of the Lian family.
"Go out and turn right!"
As soon as Jackson got the answer he wanted, he was in no mood to talk to Marvin. He stood up in a
hurry and rushed out, losing his calmness.
The door of the factory building was kicked open, and the dazzling light shone in, making people's eyes
painful. Hester held Thomas in her arms subconsciously. She narrowed her eyes and saw a figure
coming against the light.
Seeing that she was fine, Jackson breathed a sigh of relief. There was still lingering fear in his body. He
trembled slightly and even felt himself useless.
"You look good. I'm so worried about you!"
Hearing his insincere words, the corners of Hester's mouth twitched slightly. She raised her head and
rolled her eyes at him. Then she said in an unhappy tone, "Come and help me!"
Jackson nodded helplessly and walked briskly. Except that he was good at acting, he didn't know how
to stand in front of her.
Hester bent down and held Thomas in her arms. She checked his body up and down before completely
calming down.
As soon as the two of them walked out of the factory, they bumped into Terence, who was with his
men. Jackson raised his eyebrows and looked down upon this scene.
When Hester met that man's cold eyes, her feet became soft. She hurriedly supported Jackson and
managed to stabilize her body. She quietly exhaled a mouthful of air, unable to tell what her state of
mind was.
"Although I like your hug very much, I'm not such a casual person. Do you want to marry me?"
Jackson had already noticed her gaffe. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Hester playfully. He
approached her and said frivolously.
Taking her hand back without hesitation, Hester took a deep breath. Considering that he was still useful
to her, she decided to put up with it this time!
"Huh!"
With a chuckle, Jackson looked up at Terence with a touch of tease on his unruly face.
"It's rare to see Mr. Terence in such a mess! Unfortunately, it's too late!"
Without demur, he threw Thomas to Terence and possessively held Hester in his arms.
"We have something else to do. I'm sorry."
"Alas!"
Seeing that Jackson threw the child into the air, Hester couldn't help screaming, but she was tightly
bound in his arms and couldn't get rid of him.
"Don't worry!"
Jackson lowered his voice and whispered in her ear. Then he raised his eyebrows defiantly and
glanced at Terence, who looked pale.
"Goodbye, Mr. Terence!"
Watching the two of them leave, Terence held Thomas tightly in his arms and looked at Hester's back
with complicated eyes, unable to speak a word.
He just wanted to ask her about her situation, but why was it so difficult to tell her? Was it because the
scene in front of him was dazzling, or was it because he blamed himself for being late?
"Don't cheat the child like this next time. It's very dangerous"
After the two of them walked out of the sight of Terence, Hester raised her elbow and hit him hard on
the waist, warning.
She was really shocked by what she had seen just now. If it weren't for Terence, she would have hit
Jackson before.
With a groan, Jackson felt bad. He shook his head with a bitter smile, helplessness. Back then, he was
able to challenge eight men alone, but today he was beaten by a woman. Would it be laughable if this
news spread out?
"You are so rude. Can you get married in the future?"
Hester clenched her fists and turned her head. She looked at the cheeky man in front of her with mixed
feelings.
When the door was opened, she was moved.
"Jackson, thank you so much this time. I'm really moved!"
"Then marry me!"
