Chapter 5
“Which damn fool dares to touch someone from the Jars family? Does he want to die?”
An extremely arrogant voice came from outside the door. A young man in a suit, with slicked-back hair and a slick appearance, stood there with a group of bodyguards. He had the look of someone who had indulged in pleasures too much, clearly a playboy who had spent years courting women.
Burgess Jars was originally enjoying the company of beautiful women in a fancy club when he received a call from one of his subordinates. His cousin-in-law had been beaten up, and the injuries were quite severe. This enraged Burgess Jars!
Burgess Jars was used to acting tyrannically in Wales. Everyone knew that Cole Bruce was his cousin-in-law. So, no one dared to mess with Cole Bruce. But today, someone told him that his cousin-in-law had been beaten half to death. He was furious. When had Burgess Jars ever been treated like that before? So, he went straight to the person who did this.
Mandy March calmed down the panicked Uncle Craig, then opened the door and stepped outside. Upon seeing Mandy March, Burgess Jars immediately raised his eyebrows and examined her carefully from head to toe.
“
“Is this the so-called ‘dog’ who moved my Burgess Jars? Bring him to me!”
Without saying a word, Burgess Jars ordered his men to capture Mandy March. But Mel Duncan stepped forward and blocked Mandy March’s path. With a cold expression, he shouted, “Anyone who dares to come within five meters of the mage will be executed without mercy!”
“,?
“Hahaha, are you trying to fool me? So you’re a mage, huh? Thinking you’re something special just because you came up with such a ridiculous name? Bring her to me!” Burgess Jars laughed heartily, completely ignoring Mandy March and Mel Duncan.
Suddenly, one of Burgess Jars’ henchmen rushed forward. A fierce glint appeared in Mel Duncan’s eyes as he delivered a simple, direct punch straight to the chin of the leading bodyguard.
Just a “click” sound was heard.
The bodyguard was knocked flying by Mel Duncan’s punch, then collapsed in a pool of blood, unconscious.
This brutal scene was simply shocking. Burgess Jars stared blankly at what was happening before him. He never expected that Mel Duncan would actually dare to act, and when she did, it was with a deadly intent!
Mel Duncan didn’t stop his movements. He took another step forward, charging like a cheetah. He knocked another of Mandy March’s bodyguards to the ground. Blood and broken teeth flew into the air in an instant.
“3.
“I won’t repeat it a third time. Anyone who dares to enter five meters around the mage will be killed without mercy!”
At that moment, those words struck like a heavy hammer. Burgess Jars and his companions were so frightened that they retreated several steps back, ending up at a distance of five meters from Mandy March.
Byrgeis Jars also realized at this point that he had probably run into a real problem. He had never heard of anyone named Mandy March in Wales. Clearly, she wasn’t part of the Welsh forces. Could she be from Joslin?
Just as Burgess Jars was hesitating whether to seek help from his family’s influence, a car stopped at the entrance to the residential area. A middle-aged man with a serious expression got out of the car.
Upon seeing who it was, Burgess Jars’s face lit up with joy. This middle-aged man was none other than Roxanne Cypriana, the head of the Welsh Law Enforcement Agency!
Burgess Jars knew that Roxanne Cypriana had been a college classmate of his father, and the two were very close friends. Thanks to this relationship, the Jars family managed to make a name for themselves in Wales.
After all, it’s someone from our own side. I never expected Roxanne Cypriania to come here. Could it be that she’s here to support me? The more Burgess thought about it, the more likely it seemed to him. He quickly went up to greet her.
“Uncle Cypania, how did you come here?” Burgess Jars said with joy, smiling as he greeted Roxanne Cypania.
“,,?”
“Hmm, it’s Xiao Zhi. What are you doing here?” Roxanne Cypriania glanced at Burgess Jars and nodded slightly.
“
“Uncle Siphania, some guy picked a fight with me and beat my brother-in-law. Please stand up for me!” Burgess Jars’s eyes darted around as he complained directly to Uncle Siphania.
Roxanne Cyrenia glanced in the direction Burgess Jars was pointing. There, Cole Bruce lay unconscious on the ground, looking utterly pitiful. Roxanne Cyrenia’s face immediately showed displeasure. After all, Wales was under his jurisdiction. He certainly couldn’t just stand by and do nothing when such a thing happened.
Upon seeing Roxanne Cyrene in that state, Burgess Jars immediately thought there might be a chance to profit from this situation. He hurriedly pointed at Mandy March and continued accusing, “Uncle Cyrene, it’s him! He’s the one who beat my brother-in-law up like this. Please send someone to arrest him right away!”
“Hm?”
Upon hearing this, Roxanne Cypania looked up in the direction Burgess Jars was pointing. Her expression turned grim. Meanwhile, Burgess Jars’s smile grew even more sinister. He could already imagine Mandy March’s miserable fate.
However, what happened next completely shocked Burgess Jars.
Roxanne Cyprania quickly ran over to Mandy March. Abandoning her usual serious and dignified demeanor, she actually managed to force a smile on her face and bowed deeply to Mandy March.
“
“Mr. March, so you’re here! I’m here regarding the incident at the airport earlier. There was some misunderstanding between my subordinates and you. I’ve come to apologize in person!”
Roxanne Cypania maintained a very proper attitude. Although she had no idea who this young man before her really was, Roxanne Cypania knew that it was because of this young man that her direct supervisor had personally called her to reprimand her.
It’s clear this young man is no ordinary person. He’s likely some important figure from London. Roxanne Cyrenia certainly doesn’t want to offend him. After much thought, she decided to go and apologize in person.
Mandy March glanced at Roxanne Cyprinia indifferently. Her handsome face showed a hint of coldness.
"You actually dare to investigate me?"
As soon as Mandy March said those words, Roxanne Cypriania broke out in a cold sweat! This high-ranking official was too frightened to say a word, standing there like a child who had made a mistake.
“……,.”
“Well… I’ll never do that again,” Roxanne Cypriania said carefully, instinctively wiping the cold sweat from her forehead.
“,.”
“Hmm, go ahead then.” Mandy March replied indifferently. Roxanne Cyprinia felt a wave of relief and secretly sighed in relief.
However, this scene was utterly shocking to Burgess Jars. After all, Roxanne Cyrenia was a powerful figure in Wales. Even Wales’ four major families strove to maintain good relations with her. He had never seen Roxanne Cyrenia show such respect to anyone before.
No, it should be called fear!
Burgess Jars could clearly sense Roxanne Cyrene’s genuine fear of that young man.
“
“Uncle Cipania, I…” Seeing Roxanne Cipania turn to leave, Burgess Jars was extremely anxious and quickly called out to her.
Roxanne Cypriania gave Burgess Jars a faint glance. Her eyes no longer held the warmth they once did. She simply said coldly, “I had a good relationship with your father. I know exactly what kind of person you are. So, I advise you to behave yourself.”
Roxanne Cyrenia left with those words and turned away, completely ignoring Burgess Jars’s feelings. This made Burgess Jars feel as though he had fallen into an ice cave, with his limbs going cold instantly.
A person who even Roxanne Cyphonia has to accompany with utmost respect and caution—what kind of terrifyingly powerful background does that person have?
Burgess Jars is nothing but a spoiled rich kid who lives a carefree life. If he really dares to provoke someone even the Jars family can’t afford to offend, Burgess Jars knows full well that the Jars family will never let him go.
“Alright, now let’s talk about why you’ve come to see me.” Mandy March gave Burgess Jules a faint glance, a teasing smile playing on her lips.
Upon seeing this, Burgess Jars’s legs went weak, and he couldn’t help but shiver. He felt a cold wind rushing from the soles of his feet all the way to the top of his head.
