The Billionaire’s Kick Ass Wife

Chapter 340 The Disliked Mr. Lockwood

Draxton raised his hand and said, “Sit down first.”

An unnatural expression flashed across James’s face. He also realized that he had been too

impatient. Six months ago, when he was sent back to the Mystical Island, he had been

waiting for this day.

However, he did not expect the patriarch to arrive so quickly!

As if knowing what he was thinking, Draxton said, “I didn’t plan to come so soon. According

to our plan, I should only come to the Mystical Island six months later. It was just a

coincidence that Betty was brought to the Mystical Island, so our plan could only be brought

forward.”

James nodded. “Mr. Lockwood, the underground chamber of commerce is operating very

well now. Theo has established a stable interest relationship with a portion of the forces on

the Mystical Island.”

“I know,” said Draxton. Then, he looked at James and said, “I’ve waited for so many years.

We can almost avenge your mother. Don’t be anxious. Be more patient.”

James adjusted his silver-framed glasses. His fingers trembled slightly as he said, “I will.”

After saying that, his excited expression gradually calmed down.

Isabella listened to them quietly. Draxton explained to her, “When I met James back then,

we were still young. I was covered in injuries. I saved him and knew that he had a huge

grudge to take. All these years, we had been enduring it.

“At that time, I planned to let the Lockwood family’s forces infiltrate into the Mystical Island,

so I sent Theo to the Mystical Island. Theo did not disappoint me.”

Isabella was a little surprised. “Is the underground chamber of commerce on the Mystical

Island an existence that is not inferior to any large faction… yours?”

Isabella looked at Draxton.

Receiving Isabella’s shock, Draxton puffed out his chest slightly with a proud expression.

James was slightly stunned as he looked at Draxton in astonishment.

“How did… Mr. Lockwood become like this?

“He’s a little childish,” thought James.

James looked at Isabella. He felt that the patriarch’s wife was really not simple.

He had long heard that Martin and Alan had been punished by the patriarch for offending

Isabella. The punishment was not light.

Isabella and Draxton looked at each other.

At this moment, Draxton’s hair and nails were all telling the same message to Isabella.

“Praise me, praise me.”

Isabella’s eyes were filled with admiration as she said, “Draxton, you’re so amazing.”

Draxton immediately felt light-headed. Not only was his face flushed, but even his ears

were completely red. Before James came, he never expected that he would have to bw

showed off by this couple just to discuss something with the patriarch.

Moreover, at this moment, the patriarch seemed to have an invisible peacock tail behind

him that was extremely ostentatious.

James tactfully remained silent. After all, he was not sure if the patriarch would bear a

grudge against him if he interrupted the patriarch now.

“What’s going on with the Beck family?” Fortunately, Isabella was the first to break the

strange atmosphere. James hurriedly said respectfully, “Mrs. Lockwood, you also know that

the Beck family is one of the four big families on the Mystical Island. The Beck family’s

power on the Mystical Island is intertwined. Moreover, the Beck family and some of the

underground forces in District 9 are involved in interests. If we really want to rule District 9,

the Beck family is not a small obstacle.

“Of course, other than the Beck family, there are other families who are also watching.”

Isabella nodded. “I know. I’m afraid no one would want us to really rule District 9.*

“Actually, if the Lockwood family were to form an alliance with the Beck family, the Beck

family might help support Mr. Lockwood. Therefore, before we really become enemies, the

Beck family might use some special methods…”

James spoke carefully.

Isabella was stunned for a moment. Then, she squinted hers eyes and said, “Special

methods?”

“The Beck family has a daughter called Annie Beck,” said James.

Isabella’s aura instantly turned cold.

James hurriedly said, “Mrs. Lockwood. Actually, it’s not just the Beck family. I’m afraid the

other families and forces have similar thoughts. After all, if could form an alliance with the

Lockwood family, there will be endless benefits.”

Isabella was so angry that she laughed. Then, she looked at Draxton unkindly.

When a woman was jealous, she would be very unreasonable.

For example, at this moment, Draxton felt very wronged. Hence, he glared at James very

unkindly. His gaze was as fierce as it could be.

James lowered his head and raised his left hand to rub his nose innocently. Draxton stared

at him. He knew James too well. He was used to doing this when he felt guilty.

“James, you’re not young anymore. It’s not easy to be single, right?”

Draxton sneered.

James raised his head in shock and said in disbelief, “Mr. Lockwood, how can you use words

to attack me personally?”

“Humph.” Draxton sneered.

James could not help but gasp.

Draxton said unkindly, “Get lost!”

He was going to coax his wife.

“But Mr. Lockwood, we still have things to discuss…”

“Wren, see the guest out!” Draxton shouted.

“No, Mr. Lockwood, you can’t…”

Wren had already walked in and dragged James out half politely and half forcefully.

Wren glanced at Draxton and Isabella, who did not look too good. He turned around with an

unclear expression.

He dragged James out of district master’s manor. He looked polite, but he was actually cold.

“Mr. Beck, please leave.*

James was chased out of district master’s manor.

This piece of news came out of nowhere.

Meanwhile, at the Beck family.

The patriarch of the Beck family, Paul, was almost 80 this year, but he was still hale and

hearty.

He sat at the head of the table with his wife. The two sides below him were the direct

descendants of the Beck family.

Among them, the most conspicuous were his eldest son, Andy Beck, and his current wife,

Fionna.

Next were Andy and Fionna’s children, Brandon and Annie Beck.

Next was the Beck family’s second branch.

The Beck family’s second branch and main branch had some open and covert strife, but

because Paul was dignified, the Beck family had always been relatively harmonious.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall could be considered warm.

Andy coldly said to Paul, “Father, James was chased out by Draxton. He’s simply a disgrace

to the Beck family.”

Paul’s expression did not look too good either. Originally, because James was the eldest son

and eldest grandson of the Beck family, he was quite concerned about him.

However, what happened today really disappointed him,

Such a useless person was only a burden to the Beck family.

Paul said indifferently, “Then… Abandon him!”.

After hearing those words, Paul’s wife, Andy, Fionna, and Brandon and Annie were all

overjoyed.

As for the Beck family’s second branch, his expression was as indifferent as ever.

After the joy, Fionna said, “Father, Mother, we were originally worried that James was

Draxton’s subordinate after all. They would be involved. Now, it seems that their

relationship is only average.

“In that case, it won’t be impossible for the Beck family to rope in Draxton.”

As she spoke, she looked at her daughter, Annie.

Annie immediately understood something when she saw her mother looking at her. She

stomped her feet angrily. “Mom, why are you looking at me? That Draxton is just an

outsider. Even if he’s the Lockwood family’s patriarch, he’s not worthy of me. Moreover, he

already has a wife and children. Such a man is not clean. I don’t want him!”
