Lord death is now back home novel Chapter 785

Chapter 785

"Yes, Mr. Shelby, I promise to complete the task!"

Upon hearing that Esther would be heading north in three days, Jake Johnson, filled with an urgency akin to a shot of adrenaline, hurried to prepare all the procedures for establishing the company. If he could not complete the task, his position as the head of the Chester Group's northern branch might just slip away!

At the same time, in Middleton, one of the four major families of Amerosia, the Daniels family, were a longstanding powerhouse. In Middleton, this imperial capital where every inch of land is like gold, they owned a large estate of five hundred acres!

"So, you're saying Chris Shelby is heading north?"

Within a study, Evan Daniels squinted, his eyes darting about. Mention of Chris Shelby made his teeth itch with hatred. Previously, when Evan Daniels went to the East Coast to pursue Candace Nance, he had been publicly slapped several times by Chris Shelby at a cocktail party!

In the end, he had to flee in disgrace, in full view of the public. This grudge, he always kept in his heart. He just didn't understand - where did a useless son-in-law, a cast-off of the Shelby family, get the courage to bully him as he did when they were children?

Originally, he planned to gather men and go to the East Coast to seek revenge on Chris Shelby. But unexpectedly, Chris Shelby had come to Middleton himself. A golden opportunity!

Just then, Yvonne Rainey, dressed up very attractively, cooed, "Yes, Mr. Daniels!"

As she spoke, she wrapped her arms around Evan Daniels's neck and whispered in his ear, "Mr. Daniels... I am... the first one to tell you this news, you know!"

"Perfect!"

"If Chris Shelby dares to come to Middleton, I will make sure he can't leave!" Evan Daniels snarled. Middleton was his territory. Crushing Chris Shelby in Middleton would be as simple as crushing an ant.

More importantly, Yvonne Rainey had personally witnessed Chris Shelby's terrifying power and his ruthless henchmen. She wondered what Chris Shelby had been through over the years to gain such terrifying power and such formidable followers. This was also why she felt compelled to caution Evan Daniels.

Evan Daniels stroked his chin and said, "You're right! After all, this Chris Shelby is the abandoned son of the Shelby family. Although he was kicked out of the Shelby family, who knows if he still has ties to them?"

Towards the Shelby family, Evan Daniels always maintained a degree of wariness. The Shelby family, among the four major families of Middleton, had always been an anomaly. They conducted their business discreetly, not showing off their strength.

Who knew what kind of enormous power the Shelby family was hiding?

"However... Even though Chris Shelby has swept through the gray area of Jacksonville, if he wants the Chester Group to firmly establish itself in Middleton, he must set up a branch in Middleton."
