Chapter 437
The President fell silent. He let out a long sigh and looked at Wesley. "Wesley, come back and help me. We're brothers. I need your help.'
He thought that Wesley would still reject him like before. However, this time, Wesley did not hesitate at all. He said calmly, Alright, I'll enter the parliament. Haven't you always reserved the position of councilman for me?"
The President was stunned at first. Then, his eyes flashed and he said, "All right. It's good that you've thought it through.'
That's it then. I'll go to work tomorrow." Wesley put down his coffee cup and walked out.
The President stared at his back and said, "Wesley, you will help me, right?"
Wesley did not even turn his head as he said coldly, Dream on! You're the one who asked me to return to Dawton City. I'll only care about my work. I'm not involved in anything else."
The President fell silent as he watched Wesley's back disappear.
At the Lockwood family.
Draxton and Isabella returned. Sir Graham Lockwood asked, "Did you really hand Vernon over?"
"Yes, grandpa,' Draxton replied.
Sir Graham had a melancholic look on his face. "Vernon..."Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Draxton said, 'Grandpa, the first batch of people who founded the Vernon Branch are no longer around. The current Vernon Branch is no longer the Vernon Branch of the past!"
"I know." Sir Graham sighed. "Draxton, you did the right thing. If you don't remove the poisonous thorns, they will rot in your flesh forever."
"The President is probably quite angry this time," Draxton said.
"Hmph, what's the big deal about angering him? Compared to what he did to you, Bella, and our Lockwood family, that's considered trivial! Besides, he didn't suffer any losses.' Sir Graham's face darkened.
Draxton nodded. "Grandpa, Bella and I are going to leave Dawton City for a while. We're going to Maestria." "You guys are going to Maestria too?" Philip and Jeanne happened to hear him when they came downstairs.
Draxton said, We're also bringing Ricky and Betty along.'
Philip said, "That's good. It's time for you to bring Bella and the children to visit your grandparents."
After saying that, he looked at Jeanne and said, "Jean, since they're going, should we still go?"
Jeanne said, "Let's not go. Let's go on a vacation."
"Okay, let's go on a trip."
Sir Graham was so angry that his beard trembled. "What trip? Who's going to tend to the family affairs if Draxton is not here?"
Philip hurriedly said, "Dad, Draxton has already settled the affairs. The Lockwood family is now united. We're much better off than before!"
Sir Graham took a deep breath and left without saying a word.
He was afraid that he would be angered to death by his unfilial son if he stayed any longer.
Jeanne and Philip looked at each other. Then, both of them looked at Draxton and said, "Draxton, take care of the family matters before going to Maestria. Your mother and I will leave first." Draxton and Isabella were speechless.
Isabella asked, "Dad, Mom, where's Olivia? Why haven't I seen her?"
Jeanne thought for a moment and said, 'She went to Southeast Aelinne with her boyfriend. I think there's a tournament for mercenaries being held at Southeast Aelinne. She went to watch." Isabella widened her eyes slightly and exchanged glances with Draxton.
"That means Olivia went with Jake." Isabella was a little happy. "Are they together?" Draxton's lips curled into a smile. 'Looks like it."
"That's great." Isabella sighed.
"What other matters need to be completed in the Lockwood family? Draxton, you can make the arrangements. I'll go to the laboratory to take a look."
The crystal potion experiment was still in progress. It was time for her to take a look. Draxton frowned, but in the end, he still said, Have members of Big Dipper escort you. Be careful on the way.' Isabella said, "What are you worried about? Do you really think I'm just a beautiful doll?"
With that, she smiled and walked out.
Isabella arrived at the laboratory. Every process in the laboratory was carried out in an orderly manner.
"Mrs. Lockwood, you're finally back!" Bruce was very happy to see her.
Isabella looked around and asked, "Has Fernando gone back?"
Bruce said, He just went back, but his sister didn't." Winna is still in Lucsia?" Isabella was a little surprised. Fernando felt safe enough to leave Winna in Lucsia.
Bruce smiled and said, "This matter is also related to the Lockwood family. Fernando entrusted Winna to the Lockwood family for protection."
Isabella felt that it was a little strange, but she did not ask further. She only said,
"Draw a tube of my blood and take it to the laboratory."
Bruce was stunned.
Isabella explained, 'I've been injected with the Black Crystal Potion. I don't feel at ease."
Bruce gasped and quickly went about his task.
When Isabella returned to the Lockwood family's old residence from the laboratory, she saw two cars parked at the entrance. Two young people, a man and a woman, were standing in front of their respective cars. It looked as though they were arguing.
Isabella squinted slightly. Upon closer inspection, she realized that those were Winna and Roger Lockwood.
The two of them actually met. Isabella stopped the car, rolled down the window, and asked, "What are you doing here?"
