Chapter 74 Mercenari Uno
Isabella chuckled. “She’s just a clown. Ignore him.”
Emily asked, “Isabella, are you jealous?”
She looked nosy.
Isabella couldn’t help but laughed as she looked at Emily and said, “No, Bridget isn’t worthy of my
jealousy. She’s beneath me. Didn’t I say that she was just a clown?”
They chatted and laughed as they returned to the private room. For a moment, there was laughter.
Compared to their joy, the Riker family’s side seemed a little strange and quiet.
When Patriarch Riker and Bridget returned to the private room, they saw a blond stranger and an
enchanting young man with fox-like eyes already sitting in the private room.
Seeing them, the two of them stood up with a smile. “Patriarch Riker, I’m so happy to see you!”
The enchanting young man smiled and introduced, “Patriarch Riker, this is Marvin Noverson, the third
son of the Noverson Family.”
Patriarch Riker smiled kindly and said politely, “You’re really young and promising, Mr. Noverson. I’m
very happy to see you.”
Marvin smiled and said, “It’s a pleasure to meet you too, Patriarch Riker.”
That suaveness really hit home somehow.
Patriarch Riker was clearly surprised. Then, his smile became even brighter. “Mr. Noverson, Jason,
please have a seat.”
He spoke as he sat down first. Marvin and the enchanting man also sat down. Bridget sat beside
Patriarch Riker and said to the enchanting man, “Senior brother, why didn’t master come back with you?”
The enchanting man’s name was Jacob Kingston. He was Carlo Orwells’s other disciple and Bridget’s
senior
brother.
Both of them were Carlos’s disciples, but Bridget was more talented than Jacob in medicine and poison-

became a businessman.
He met Marvin in business.
In fact, the relationship between Jacob and Marvin was not as simple as just being business partners.
The business interests between the two had gotten so entangled that it reached an inseparable point.
Marvin looked slow and elegant. He spoke very directly to Patriarch Riker. “Patriarch Riker, I have
internal news. If I tell you, you will definitely be shocked. Draxton Lockwood, the Lockwood family
chieftain. It’s very likely that he won’t be able to come back alive!”
Patriarch Riker and Bridget’s expressions changed. Patriarch Riker said in shock, “Are you serious?”
The first thought that flashed through Bridget’s mind was, wondering if Draxton died, what would happen
to her.
She wondered if she would be unable to become the future mistress of the Lockwood family.
Other than that, she was also a little happy. With Draxton dead, Isabella would no longer have a backer!
Jacob glanced at Bridget and said to Patriarch Riker, “Patriarch Riker, it’s true.
“A few days ago, Draxton had brought the Lockwood family’s Executive Department and Department of
War overseas to take the Star of Cold Light. They had been poisoned by The Spider’s poisonous smoke.
“Everyone knew that The Spider was an international secret organization that was infamous for its use of
poison. As long as they were paid enough, there was no target that they could not poison.
“Even Draxton can’t escape The Spider’s poison.”
Patriarch Riker was shocked. His eyes flashed and his expression turned extremely dark.
He had already calculated deep down what would happen to the Lockwood family if Draxton died, and
what the Riker family could gain from the fiasco.

Bridget muttered, “Is he really dead? But what if he comes back alive?”
Jacob smiled. “Even if Draxton comes back alive, he’s already crippled. If he wants to live, he can only
purge the poison in him.
“However, the poisonous smoke of The Spider could not even be cured by the members of The Spider
themselves. By that time, the only one who could help him cure the poison would be you, junior sister.
“When the time comes, Draxton will marry no one but you. And you will be the wife of the chieftain of the
Lockwood family proper.
“At that time, Draxton’s life will be in your hands. The entire Lockwood family will bow to you in the end!
“As for the woman and child Draxton brought back, just get rid of them both. When you give birth to the
Lockwood family’s successor, everything will be under our control.”
“When the time comes, the Lockwood family will be ours!” Patriarch Riker’s eyes flashed.
Suddenly, he thought of something and looked at Marvin. “How did Mr. Noverson know that Draxton was
poisoned?”
Marvin smiled mysteriously. His green eyes rippled with a faint smile. Not only did it not make people feel
at ease, but it also made people sense unfathomable danger and depth.
“Patriarch Riker, you don’t have to know the details. You just need to know that the news is true.”
At this point, he chuckled. “If the Lockwood family wants to find the Star of Cold Light, they have to pay a
price, right?”
Patriarch Riker’s eyes flashed and looked at Marvin thoughtfully.
Jacob smiled and looked at Bridget. Junior sister, master asked me to pass you a message. He said to
not take that person called Isabella seriously. Human lives are sometimes very fragile. If a stone blocks
our way, just move it away. No need to take it seriously.”
Bridget originally thought that Isabella was a threat. She was afraid that Isabella would become her
enemy in the future, but after Jacob said that, she suddenly felt relieved.
Her eyes lit up and she asked, “Does master have a way to get rid of Isabella?”
Jacob smiled and shook his head. “You really lapsed in judgment for someone known for her smarts. Be
it Isabella or her master, Greg Falkona, there’s no need to think of a way. You’d only need to deal with
them up front, and that means putting them out the hard way.”
Bridget’s eyes lit up. “How?”
Jacob smiled mysteriously. “Junior sister, you know about the number one mercenary organization in the
world, right?”

Bridget’s eyes suddenly lit up, and all the gloominess in her eyes disappeared completely. She said
excitedly. “Senior brother, are you saying that master hired the Mercenari Uno to take out Isabella and
her master?”
“That’s right.” Jacob smiled. “With the Mercenari Uno on the job, there’s no one they can’t kill.”
“That’s great!” Bridget couldn’t help but lose control.
Patriarch Riker said in a deep voice, “Bridget, you mean to tell me that Isabella Thompson is enough to
make you all worked up?”
Jacob also said, “That’s right, Junior sister. This isn’t like you!”
Marvin also looked at Bridget in surprise.
Bridget also knew that she needed to act sharper, but only she knew deep down, just how terrifying
Isabella
was
No one could keep calm having their faces rubbed on the ground after all.
However, she still suppressed the excitement in her heart and picked up her wine glass. She smiled
brightly. “It was really unbecoming of me. Come, let’s drink to a beautiful tomorrow!”
They all laughed and raised their glasses.
Just as they were scheming, somewhere overseas, a handsome young man in a silver combat suit
angrily kicked a huge rock
With a bang, the huge rock shattered.
The subordinates around the young man did not dare to make a sound.
The young man said angrily. “Preposterous. Someone actually dares to hire us, Mercenari Uno, to kill our
own people? Don’t they know that Bella is also a member of one of our own?”
One of the subordinates said nervously, “B-Boss, they didn’t know for real. If they knew, why would they
dare to provoke Bella?”
