The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1424

“Actually, this is something everyone knows. Given your intelligence, you should have figured it out too. The Gordon family has been on guard for a long time. Ever since you started suppressing the Cox family, you’ve been indirectly suppressing the Gordon family as well. Therefore, the Gordon family had no choice but to be cautious. However, you thought that the Gordon family, after all, is not as deeply rooted or as powerful as the Cox family. You dared not confront the Cox family, so you came to me humbly, putting on this show of a sincere invitation. Am I right, Mr. Lozano?”

Listening to her dissect his actions word by word, Matthew grew increasingly angry.

After a full minute had passed, he suddenly let out a strange laugh from deep within his chest.

Neera looked at him coldly. Her smile had disappeared, leaving only indifference and vigilance in her eyes.

Having had his fill of laughter, Matthew stopped, his face shrouded in gloom.

“Neera, I must admit I underestimated you. I thought you didn’t know much, but it seems I was the one who was careless. Yes, the Bartitsu Guild has been wary of the Gordon family for a long time, but so what? On the turf of the Bartitsu Guild, we are the rulers, we are the law! To maintain the status of the Bartitsu Guild, we naturally have to be cautious of prominent families like yours. Otherwise, if you grow and develop, and if you ever harbor ill intentions, won’t it be too late for the Bartitsu Guild to react? Looking back, I should have been ruthless from the start, not giving you the chance to show off in front of me! Now, the Bartitsu Guild has given the Gordon family enough respect, but you just don’t appreciate it. If you’re so ungrateful, don’t blame the Bartitsu Guild for being impolite! From now on, the Bartitsu Guild will no longer tolerate the Gordon family!”

With that, he stormed off, his face gloomy.

Darren supported him, and before leaving, he turned his head for one last look.

Soon, the sound of a car driving away could be heard from outside.

The living room was silent. Only then did Neera, who had been holding her breath, let out a long sigh. She leaned back tiredly onto the couch, her brows furrowed in irritation.
