King's Awakening

Moreover, Andrea Jones fervently held Sherry Jones’ hand, cupping it within her own, and said with deep feeling, “Sherry, I’m so glad you’ve finally arrived. I’ve been yearning for your arrival. Now that you’re here, I finally have a companion. Were those people around Jonah Jones just now trying to target you? Tell me, I’ll help you fight back immediately!”

Andrea Jones delivered the words as if they were the normal thing to say; the tone of her speech even had a few girlish notes, exactly matching her age.

However, this didn’t fit her status as the Family Head!

Facing Andrea Jones’s enthusiasm, Sherry Jones was completely dumbstruck, feeling a bit flattered.

The villa was hers, but even the members of the Jones family were shocked by Andrea Jones’s behavior at that moment.

Andrea Jones, who usually appears unapproachable and decisive, actually has such a feminine side?

This was absolutely unprecedented!

Everyone present was stupefied.

Among everyone present, perhaps only White Mitchell could guess Andrea Jones’s intentions to a certain extent.

“So, Andrea Jones has suspected my identity and wants to use this chance to leave a good impression on me?” White Mitchell thought to himself.

However, he hadn’t figured out Andrea Jones’s purpose yet.

Currently, the entire Jones family was under Andrea Jones’s control. She had exhausted the opportunity for further promotion.

If she wanted to take over other wealthy families in Capital City, that would be too ambitious. Even with his help, the Jones family, given its current scale, simply couldn’t do that.

What on earth does she want?

White Mitchell squinted his eyes and calmly took a look at Andrea Jones.

Andrea Jones seemed to have read his mind in advance. When White Mitchell looked at her, she just gently nodded at him with a clear mind, without the slightest distraction.

White Mitchell withdrew his gaze, without giving it a thought. As long as she wasn’t targeting Sherry Jones, he didn’t need to be bothered by how she behaved.

Then, Andrea Jones, holding Sherry Jones’s hand, introduced the main members of the Jones family to Sherry, promising that if there were any problems with the running of the business, she could come to her for help at any time.

Upon hearing this, Sherry Jones thanked her again, a bit surprised that things had gone so smoothly.

Thus, everything seemed to be heading in a good direction, and the time became later and later.

Around ten o’clock in the evening, White Mitchell and Sherry Jones left the Jones family.

However, the moment they left, a touch of coldness appeared on Andrea Jones’s pretty face. She picked up a tissue and wiped her hands disdainfully before throwing it into the trash can.

“What a White Mitchell! He remains calm at all times; I don’t believe there is a man in the world who can resist temptation!” Andrea Jones said coldly.

She had tried several times to curry favor with White Mitchell that evening, but he didn’t give away anything. His carefreeness seemed like an insult to Andrea – it was as if he was telling her that he couldn’t care less about her. Not a single glance.

This almost drove Andrea Jones mad.

Whether in beauty or in status, she was no worse than Sherry Jones. Her performance tonight was perfect, much better than that of Sherry Jones.

But White Mitchell didn’t even look at her once. The only time he did look at her was with a vigilant look, as if he was guarding against her.

“Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!” Andrea Jones was more upset the more she thought about it.

At this time, an old man who had always been following Andrea spoke, “Miss, a person like Army Master White cannot be measured by ordinary standards. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have risen to his current position step by step. Becoming his woman and entering his field of vision is not a simple task. Otherwise, Sayon War Department would already be crammed with all those excellent women from wealthy families in Capital City. In my opinion, this is not a man we can afford to provoke. If not handled properly, it could backfire.”

“Are you saying that I’m not as good as Sherry Jones?” Andrea Jones, still in irritation, turned around, her cold eyes staring at the old man behind her.

She was a dictator, arrogant to the extreme. Once she set a goal, nothing could stop her from achieving it.

It had been the case since she was a child.

“In the future, I don’t want to hear such words. White Mitchell is mine. I’ll get him no matter what!” Andrea Jones said indifferently.

Alas…

Seeing the willful Andrea Jones, the old man could not help but sigh, feeling somewhat helpless. He knew that Andrea Jones had become obsessed, just as she once had set her mind to take the Family Head position. She would use every means possible to get what she wanted.

…

On the other hand, right after White Mitchell and Sherry Jones left the Jones family, Caleb Robert, who had barely escaped from danger, was drowning his sorrows in a private club in the Capital City.

He hadn’t expected that all his well-prepared plans would be disturbed by a sudden young man.

“Mr. Anthony, we have investigated it clearly. The guy’s name is White Mitchell, he’s from Sayon and the girl is the new Head of the third branch of the Jones family,” Caleb Robert’s subordinate reported to him.

Jones family?

The new head of the third branch?

Upon receiving this message, Caleb Robert frowned. This was not good news.

The Jones family’s power in the Capital City was far greater than that of the Robert family.

Even just one of its branches was not something he could mess with.

He hadn’t expected that this White Mitchell had such a grand background.

“Mr. Anthony, I’ve also found something interesting. It seems that the third branch of the Jones family is not satisfied with their new head and doesn’t want her to take over. As a result, Jonah Jones of the third branch of the Jones family had an argument with White Mitchell and ended up getting both of his legs broken by White Mitchell,” Caleb Robert’s subordinate continued reporting.

Oh?

Caleb Robert was stunned, his face showing a hint of interest. He then ordered, “Go on, tell me more. Tell me everything you know.”

Upon hearing the order, his subordinate immediately relayed everything they had gathered.

After hearing everything, Caleb Robert wore a vulturish expression. He then ordered, “Find me Jonah Jones’s contact information. The third branch of the Jones family, should be quite interested in the Robert Group.”
