John continued, “You have guts, lad. You kept a cool head just now. Well done.”
“Besides, I didn’t misjudge you. You know that there will be a heavy storm in Houston in the next few days, but you
still firmly choose to stand on the first line of the battlefield with me. It’s very loyal of you to do so.”
“Didn’t you just say that you would leave us alone?” Jacob couldn’t help asking John Lopez.
“I did. I walked to the window, but I’m a little curious. I just heard a little bit by accident. Just a bit.”
‘Just a bit?’
‘How much did I just talked with Aria?’
‘You must have listened to the whole process with a loud speaker, right?’
‘I don’t believe you!’ Jacob was thinking.
Sophia’s series of questions made the others of Long Family dumb.
The reason why they ended up in such an embarrassing situation was that they didn’t want to offend either the Will
Family or John Lopez. They could only pretend to be deaf and let Sophia be the scapegoat.
However, Sophia didn’t listen to them. As a result, these people began to vent their anger on her.
This was typical of family bullying.
Mandy Lane and others were rendered speechless. At this time, Brooke Long stood out and said, “Sophia, we know
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwhat you said is true, but many things in the world are not judged by right or wrong. Making a choice is the key.”
“If John Lopez offended the Will Family, he might die, but he might be protected by the Flaherty Family. But our long
family is different. Once we get on the wrong side, who will protect us?”
“John Lopez? He can’t even protect himself!
Sophia shook her head and said, “That’s your opinion. I believe right is right, and wrong is wrong.”
“Alas! Why are you so stubborn?”
Brooke Long sighed. He knew that he couldn’t make Sophia change her mind, so he walked up to Arno Long, who
had a long face and didn’t say anything. “Father, why didn’t you let us keep an eye on John Lopez just now in the
restaurant? What if he really ran away?”
The others in the hall also looked at Arno Long.
They didn’t understand either.
Now that Bruce Will had said that if John Lopez ran away, they would start a fight with the Long Family, logically
speaking, the Long Family should be on guard against him and should not give him any chance to escape.
However, after being scolded by John Lopez, Arno Long took his people away obediently.
It was reallyzzling.
Arno had been absent-minded just now, and didn’t come to his senses until he heard Brooke’s voice. He opened his
dry lips and said, “Mr. Lopez is not an average man.”
At the same time.
At Houston Martial Arts School.
In the dean’s office.
Alexandra Flaherty’s slender fingers were pinched white. Her delicate face, which had not been left a trace of time,
unexpectedly revealed a few tiny visible crow’s-feet at this moment.
She already knew what happened to John Lopez.
It was hard not to know, because this matter had been spread across the city.
One of them was a genius in the martial arts world, and the other was Master Bertha’s man. It was fairly eye-
catching..
Even if people were not curious about the fight, they would be interested in who Master Bertha’s man was.
Everyone wanted to know what kind of man was able to win over the goddess-like martial artist Master Bertha.
Alexandra Flaherty didn’t know how this stunt, ‘Master Bertha’s man’, came from. Anyways, it didn’t matter to her
at the moment. What she cared most was the gamble of life and death.
She not only cared about it, but also got cross.
She was so angry that her body trembled.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTrying her best to control her emotions, she called Bertha Carter and asked, “Do you know what happened to
John?”
“Yes, I just knew it not long ago.”
Bertha Carter had returned to Central US Martial Arts League. The news hadn’t been spread to her so quickly. It
was not long ago that John Lopez called her and told her something.
“Bugger!”
Hearing that Bertha Carter knew what was happening with John Lopez, Alexandra Flaherty, who had always been
gentle, couldn’t help but scold, “Now that you know it, why don’t you stop him?”
“He is so stubborn, as you know. I can’t persuade him to make a decision, so I have to let him do it.”
“Let him go? Humph! Do you know the consequences? He will die, and even I can’t protect him!”
Alexandra snorted.
She didn’t know how the battle with Bruce was induced before, but now she knew it was because of a woman.
What a bad excuse!
But Alexandra was not so naive as to completely believe John explanation. She looked at him and said, “I’m afraid
it’s an excuse to stand up for your brother-in-law. You just want to make a scene!”
