From A Prisoner To A Big Short’s Inheritor

Chapter 148

“Mr. Truman? Are you Victor Truman?” Ethan couldn’t help but exclaim.

Not many people knew about Victor at this time, but twenty years ago, the name “Victor” caused a sensation.

Victor was a martial artist, a pure warrior. More accurately, he was a crazy martial artist, a madman.

From the moment he appeared in people’s sight, he challenged the top experts of Imperial City and fought them to the

death.

Within one month, he continuously challenged eighteen formidable experts of Imperial City and defeated them all. shocking the capital.

At the same time, he also made countless enemies.

The relatives and friends of those killed by him and his martial arts sect brothers plotted revenge against Victor.

In the end, Victor faced a blo ody battle, killing more than seventy people barehanded and staining Imperial City with blood.

But he also suffered severe injuries and escaped in hiding.

It was said that people from various forces turned Imperial City upside down but couldn’t find Victor anywhere.

The forces suspected that someone was secretly hiding Victor, but they didn’t know who was helping him.

Three years later, Victor returned and annihilated one by one the forces that had once tried to kill him. He also challenged Bill, the number one expert in Imperial City at that time.

After inflicting serious injuries on Bill, Victor finally returned to Fairedge, devoting himself to the study of martial arts and never taking action again.

It didn’t mean that Victor had repented. It was just that he believed no one was worthy of his action.

Everyone knew that such a demonic figure should not be provoked.

Unexpectedly, Victor was invited to Newden by Tyler. Then everything was clear.

The person who assisted Victor in evading the pursuit of many experts twenty years ago was Tyler.

Ethan couldn’t help but draw in a breath of cold air.

While Anthony and the Gora Group could intimidate most forces, they could never frighten Victor.

Because in Victor’s world, there was no such thing as “fear.”

“Mr. Truman, it’s good that you’re here. As long as you help me kill Leonard, our debt from the past will be repaid,” Tyler said excitedly.

He and Victor didn’t arrive in Newden at the same time.

After visiting Victor, Victor said he would come on his own, but Tyler didn’t expect him to arrive so quickly.

“Kill Leonard, and our debt is settled. Have you really thought this through?” Victor said coldly.

“Of course, if I don’t avenge my grandson’s death, how can the Morris family hold their heads high in the world?”

“Fine, I’ll go get Leonard’s head for you now.”

Victor was about to leave.

Tyler hurriedly spoke up, “Wait.

“What else?” Victor asked coldly.

His face was like paralysis, never showing any extra expressions, even when faced with Tyler, who had saved his life years

ago

Of course, Victor knew better than anyone that Tyler’s original intention for saving him was not pure. Tyler just valued his strength.

“Wait until tomorrow morning to make your move, I want you to kill Leonard publicly. Thus, everyone knows the consequences of crossing the Morris family.”

Tyler said in a cold voice.

He wasn’t stu pid. Since Anthony was behind Leonard, if he killed Leonard, he wouldn’t have a good outcome.

11:48

But if Victor took action in public tomorrow, it would be different.

No one would know that Victor only took action once. They would only think he was from the Morris family.

And with Victor’s ruthless methods, he believed Anthony would not dare to offend easily.

Tyler was foxy. Even if he was angry, he wouldn’t lose his sense of proportion. He would take one step at a time and be

cautious.

“Alright.”

Victor nodded and then, like the wind, disappeared from the living room in an instant.

This time, Ethan saw it clearly. He left through the front door.

But because the speed was too fast, it couldn’t be noticed without careful observation.

And Ethan’s estate was filled with surveillance cameras and numerous bodyguards.

Throughout Victor’s entry and exit, those bodyguards didn’t react at all. They didn’t notice anything suspicious.

Thinking of this, Ethan couldn’t help but feel a bit frightened. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

If Victor wanted to kill him, wouldn’t it be as easy as taking something from a bag?

And Victor wasn’t afraid of Anthony at all.

Facing such a lu natic, no matter how much wealth or power you had, it would be useless.

How could Leonard survive this ordeal?

“No, I have to inform Leonard.” Ethan thought so, but he found Tyler looking at him with a smile that wasn’t a smile.

“Ethan, I have nowhere to stay in Newden. I will stay at your place today. You won’t refuse, right?”

Hearing Tyler’s words, Ethan couldn’t help but sigh and curse silently, “Such a foxy guy.”

Clearly, Tyler had guessed he would pass on the message and deliberately played this trick.

He could only pray that Leonard would be lucky and safe.

After Marianna left, Leonard received a phone call from Barrett.

“Mr. Santos, I’ve figured out the formula and made a new ointment.

“But the materials required for the formula are too precious, and mass production is temporarily not feasible. I need you. to find a way to gather the materials.”

“Really?”

Upon hearing this, Leonard couldn’t help but be pleasantly surprised.

Barrett had actually come up with it so quickly, and Leonard thought it was normal for the materials to be expensive.

For such a miraculous ointment, how could the materials be simple?

“I have already sent the list of materials to the courier to deliver to you.

“Also, I have named the newly made black ointment ‘Elixir of Longevity, and I have also sent it to you. It should be arriving at your house soon.”

“You just casually sent them to me with an urgent delivery?” Leonard said speechlessly.

“It’s all black, and who would think it’s a treasure? Don’t worry, it won’t get lost,” Barrett said nonchalantly.

“Alright, you prepare the materials, and I’ll continue with my research.”

With that, Barrett hung up the phone.

As soon as Leonard hung up the phone, the doorbell rang outside.

A young delivery person appeared at the door.

Leonard went over and opened the door, and it was the courier from Blueville.

“The fee is 160 dollars,” the delivery person said with a smile..

Leonard was shocked and puzzled.

Barrett was too stingy. The shipping fee turned out to be COD.

“I’ll give you 200 dollars. Take care on the way, young man.”

After Leonard paid the fee, he brought the package inside.

There was indeed a small piece of black ointment the size of a biscuit.

Leonard picked up the black ointment and examined it up and down, feeling complicated.

This inconspicuous little thing would cause a storm in the medical and business fields.

The Santos Group would also reach its pinnacle because of it.

In the Rodgers family, Parasoly.

Marianna and her mother Melanie had just returned home and were called into Philip Rodgers’ room.

“Grandpa.”

Seeing Philip, Marianna softly called out, and her eyes instantly turned red.

Throughout her life, Philip had always been the one who cherished her the most. But now he was forcing her to marry someone she didn’t want to. She couldn’t describe how hurt she felt.

Seeing his granddaughter in such a state, Philip sighed.

“My health is not good. The injuries from my youth have resurfaced. I’m afraid I won’t live for many more years.

“Once I fall, the enemies of the Rodgers family would eagerly pounce on us.

“But if we form an alliance with the Olsen Family, the Rodgers family will be able to rest easy.

“I realize now that I have been selfish, sacrificing you for the sake of the family. You’ve been through so much during these days.”

Hearing these words and recalling the hardships she endured during these days, Marianna couldn’t hold back her tears any longer.

Philip patted her shoulder.

“I’ve heard about what happened in Newden. If you have found true love, then I’ll allow you not to marry off to Zavier.

“Of course, the prerequisite is that he is a trustworthy man to entrust with.

“So tell him to come here. I want to meet him.

“If he sincerely treats you well, I will approve and fulfill your wishes.”

Hearing Philip’s words, Marianna’s eyes lit up instantly.

“Really?”

“Of course, when have I ever deceived you?”

Philip gently touched Marianna’s head and wiped away her tears.

At Shoal Manor, Leonard had just finished showering and sat down on the balcony when he received a call from Marianna.

After the call was connected, Marianna said, “Leonard, can you come to Parasoly tomorrow?”

Leonard waited with confusion for what she would say next.

“My grandpa wants to see you. Please do me one last favor. Tomorrow is really important to me, so I had to trouble you…”

Marianna’s tone was somewhat uneasy.

“Okay,” Leonard said without hesitation.

In fact, ever since Marianna left today, he had been wondering how the Rodgers family could easily give up on the marriage alliance. Could Marianna be deceiving him?

Now, it seemed there must be hidden motives behind it.

“Thank you,” she sincerely said.

“Don’t mention it. If you really want to thank me, you can offer yourself to me,” Leonard joked.

“Um…”

Marianna blushed and stammered.

“At most, I will let you hug and touch, but nothing more.”

Having said that, and without waiting for Leonard’s response, she hung up the phone and kept fanning her flushed cheeks

with her small hand.

“Marianna, how could you say such immodest words? It’s so embarrassing!”
