Chapter 1042: Poisoning Jordan!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Three days later.
Ever since they woke up in the morning, Jordan and Lauren had been sitting quietly in the room with serious expressions.
Jordan had predicted that the Handley brothers would invite them to be guests at the Handley residence today. They would pretend to tell Jordan the Handley family’s secret, but they were actually collaborating with Shaun to murder them and Rong Huangde.
Taking Lauren’s hand, Jordan said, “Honey, I really shouldn’t have let you come with me. You’re pregnant now, but I have to ask you to fake your death. The drug won’t affect the fetus much, but…”
Lauren said, “Hubby, I don’t regret coming with you. Only by faking our deaths can we deceive Shaun. After taking the fake-death drug, we’ll wake up automatically in a few hours. But I’m worried that Rong Huangde’s black-armored warriors won’t save us when we’re in danger.”
!!
Jordan whispered, “Of course we can’t count on him. Actually, I brought Little Steele.”
Lauren was surprised. “Huh? The artificial intelligence robot Little Steele? When did you bring it?”
“Shh.”
Jordan gestured for Lauren to keep her voice down. He didn’t want Shaun and Rong Huangde to overhear.
The artificial intelligence Little Steele was Jordan’s secret weapon. Its functions were not inferior to Rong Huangde’s black-armored warriors.
Jordan had already ordered it to monitor their bodies while they were unconscious. If it sensed any danger approaching, it would immediately use a high-tech energy cannon to kill the enemy!
It would then wake Jordan and Lauren up.
Lauren said, “I’m relieved that Little Steele is here.”
She realized that at critical moments, humans were the most unreliable. Robots were the most reliable.
As long as one put in the order, the robot would do it.
Before long, a little boy suddenly appeared at the door of Jordan’s house.
It was Finn!
Finn’s sudden appearance shocked Lauren.
The boy’s smile was very strange. According to Terrence, he had been tortured by Uehara Yumi. If so, he was a really pitiful child. Nevertheless, it was still no excuse for him to eat Lauren’s Whitey.
Jordan stood in front of Lauren and asked Finn, “What’s the matter?”
Finn smiled. “My father and uncle want to invite you over for a meal.”
Jordan pretended to be very happy and said with a smile, “Haha, I’ve waited for three days and finally received your invitation. It’s not easy! Finn, go back and tell your father and uncle that we’ll be there soon.”
Finn smiled strangely again and turned to leave.
“Wait a minute.”
Jordan suddenly stopped Finn.
Since they were going to go against the Handley family, they might as well take a little revenge first.
“What is it?”
Finn turned around and asked with an unfriendly expression.
Jordan smiled. “Little kid, was my wife’s little white cat delicious?”
Finn paused for a moment, but he was not afraid of Jordan at all. He admitted boldly. “Delicious!”
Jordan smiled again. “Haha, your father, uncle and I are all good friends. Since you like to eat white cats, I have another one here. Take it.”
“Oh?”
Finn was excited and greedy.
Fat and vulnerable white cats were Finn’s favorite!
Jordan walked to a corner of the room and picked up Sakura, who was eating cat food imported from Canada in the 21st century.
“Meow.”
Sakura licked its lips unhappily. It was not full yet. For the past three days, it had been eating non-stop at Lauren’s place.
Cats from 1978 were completely defenseless against the most delicious cat food from 2022.
Jordan lifted Sakura and threw it onto Finn.
Finn was very happy to have gotten another white kitten, but when he looked down and saw that it was Uehara Yumei’s white kitten, Sakura, he was shocked!
“Ahhh!”
Finn was so frightened that he hurriedly dropped Sakura from his arms.
During this period of time, he had been bullied by this cat a lot!
“Meow!”
When Sakura saw Finn, it was especially excited. It pounced on him and scratched his face.
“Help! Daddy!”
Finn was so frightened that he peed his pants and ran home in a panic.
“Hmph, I knew it. Everybody has a weakness.”
Jordan hugged Sakura and patted its head, praising it.
Sakura was very obedient to Jordan. It did not feel uncomfortable at all with this new master.
Jordan said to Lauren, “Whoever has cat food is the mother of this cat. Let’s bring it back when we leave.”
Lauren nodded repeatedly. “Yes, yes, I think so too!”
Without further delay, Jordan and Lauren soon arrived at the Handley family residence.
“Terrence, Harvey!”
“Senior Jordan! Ms. Lauren! Please take a seat!”
Both parties were still very polite.
The Handley brothers had prepared a table full of dishes for Jordan and Lauren. When Jordan saw this, he couldn’t resist praising.
“Wow, there’s beef, eggs and wine. You guys are too generous!”
“Not at all,” Terrence said with a smile. “It’s all my fault for not feeling well after fighting with Uehara Yumi two days ago. I was unable to discuss our secret then.”
“Senior Jordan, you might not know this, but whenever I mention that place, I will become very excited. I can’t control it. It’s been two days now. I’m finally feeling better, so I plan to tell Senior Jordan the truth.”
Jordan smiled. “I knew you wouldn’t hide it from me. Don’t keep me in suspense. Where is that place?”
Outside the Handley family town, Shaun and Rong Huangde were also listening attentively with their earphones.
Rong Huangde sat in a chair and looked very serious.
Shaun stood behind him with a gun in his arms. Later, right as his uncle was about to say the name of that place, Shaun would make a move and kill Rong Huangde!
He was sure that Rong Huangde would be at his most defenseless at that moment.
It was his best chance to attack.
At the same time, Terrence and Harvey would attack Jordan and Lauren.
In the Handley residence, Harvey smiled and said, “Senior Jordan, there’s no hurry. How about we have a drink first? Senior Jordan saved us last time, and we haven’t thanked you properly yet. I specially asked someone to get this wine. Try it.”
Jordan glanced at the bottle. The wine bottle looked very unique. It was the kind of bottle used for wine in rural regions during the 1970s.
Picking up the bottle, Jordan examined the label. “Looks like a fine bottle of wine. Come, Lauren, let’s drink!”
“Cheers!”
Jordan and Lauren downed their wine.
The Handley brothers smiled smugly. This wine was poisoned!
