SWNOVELS Chapter 180
During dinner, Bruce knew Sienna and, upon learning about her connection to Nathan, merely nodded coldly without speaking
No matter how strong the Goodman family was, they weren’t afraid either, and the person Yvette wanted to protect would be safeguarded
At the Goodman family’s hospital, Nathan’s exclusive doctor carefully bandaged his wounds, taking an hour to complete a task that should have taken 20 minutes, fearful of causing further harm to him.
Nathan’s expression darkened as he reflected on the day’s events
The doctor, sensing the oppressive aura surrounding Nathan, struggled to maintain steady hands.
After the bandaging, Nathan returned to the Goodman residence.
Exiting the car, he spotted Braydon on the lawn, playing with Odin.
It was ironic that his brother treated the dog better than he did.
ift from Yvette.
Odin was a casual gift
Over the years, Braydon spent his free time playing with Odin, besides dealing with gang matters.
How ironic!
Nathan stepped over.
Tyson, next to Braydon, kept a stern look as he watched Nathan walking from afar, shocked to see the white bandage wrapped around his wrist.
He thought, “Who dared to hurt him?
With a deep bow, Tyson said, “Mr. Braydon Goodman, Mr. Nathan Goodman has arrived.”
Upon hearing this, Braydon didn’t even look up, continuing to entertain Odin with a toy in his hand.
Nathan approached, and Odin barked at him, ready to attack if not restrained by Braydon.
Nathan shot a disgusted look at the grinning Odin, just like its owner, not likable at all.
Nathan exposed the bandages on his wrist,
Braydon’s gaze shifted from Odin to Nathan’s injury, and he paused before asking coldly. “Who hurt you?”
Feeling a flicker of concern from Braydon, Nathan’s heart softened, but he hesitated.
He contemplated whether to inform Braydon about Yvette’s return to Mysonna
He initially didn’t want to let Yvette get off easy, but now he was hesitant and worried about revealing her whereabouts.
Given Braydon’s obsession with Yvette, if he found out her location, he’d probably rush there immediately.
But he worried about Braydon’s safety if he went to see Yvette, who had shown no mercy in the past.
Ultimately, Nathan decided to keep this information hidden.
If that dangerous woim truly intended to harm Braydon, no me could stop her.
Forcing a smile to deflect Braydon’s scrutiny. Nathan replied, “It nothing. I just hurt myself accidentally.”
Braydon stared at Nathan’s hand with an unclear expression.
Nathan’s body stiffened for a moment until Braydon finally looked away and he relaxed.
“You’re quite careless. Did that woman hurt you? Why keep something that disobeys?” Braydon remarked.
The mention of Sienna made Nathan’s fingers tighten in anger. “You’re saying I’ll do anything for Sienna? Aren’t you also obsessed with Yvette?”
Realizing his mistake as he saw Braydon’s expression shift, Nathan regretted his words.
The atmosphere on the lawn turned icy.
Tyson internally scolded Nathan for his lack of judgment.
Mentioning Yvette was taboo for Braydon, and few dared to speak her name, knowing the danger it posed.
Braydon’s demonic eyes glowed like a black wolf in the night. His cold gaze was harp enough to penetrate Nathan’s bones, instilling fear in those around him.
His voice was chilling. “What is Sienna? How can she compare to Yvette? If I hear such words again, I’ll make Sienna disappear for good.”
Nathan’s expression darkened. Braydon was a lunatic, saying and doing whatever he wanted.
Knowing Braydon’s temperament, he knew he couldn’t oppose him and had to soften his attitude.
With a slight tremor in his icy voice, he said, “Braydon, I’m sorry for my words. You can’t touch Sienna. She’s pregnant with my child. If anything happens to her, it’s two lives lost. I’ll handle my affairs. You don’t need to worry. Just visit Grandpa when you can.”
Braydon glanced at him sideways, his tone dripping with disdain. “Ill see him when he dies.
Nathan was taken aback.
He thought, “Damian had drugged Braydon to make him miss Yvette’s whereabouts for two months. Is it what he harbored such hatred for so long?
Yvette is a threat that needs to be eliminated. Otherwise, she could destroy the Goodman family at any moment.
Later that night, after everyone had settled in, Yvette donned a black sweatshirt, tied her hair back, and wore a cap that concealed her face, revealing only her chin.
She left the villa and headed to a bar called “Raindrop in the western district of Mysonna
The bar was lively, filled with men and women dancing as the DJ pumped up the atmosphere.
Yvette casually found herself a seat in a corner booth.
Since her cap kept her face hidden, no one seemed to notice her
Only a couple of patrons caught a glimpse of her profile and speculated that she must be beautiful.
Raindrop Bar was known for its attractive clientele, so they quickly looked away.
Yvette sat in the booth with her legs crossed.
Her eyes were half-closed, and her delicate brows arched, exuding a rebellious arrogance.
She ordered a cup of hot milk, a cozy choice that felt out of place in the noisy bar, drawing puzzled looks from those nearby.
They thought, Drinking milk in a bar? Is she crazy?
Then Yvette removed her cap, stunning everyone with her beauty.
Ignoring the stares. Yvette continued sipping her milk, appearing completely innocent
Half an hour later, two men with bleached hair exchanged glances and eyed Yvette in the booth with malicious intentions.
They specialized in finding “clients” in the Raindrop Bar.
They were low-level members of the Tiger Head Gang, scouting for vulnerable girls to lure into drug use.
If the girls couldn’t pay, they would eventually use the addiction to control those who got hooked and force them into prostitution to make money.
They had been doing this for over a year now. Initially, they were afraid of being caught by their superiors.
The Blaze Hall had prohibited drug manufacturing and sales, so they always operated in secret.
-The Tiger Head Gang used to be a minor faction under the Blaze Hall, just scraping by in the underworld without much attention from the higher-ups.
About a year ago, their boss somehow got hold of a new type of drug and made a fortune from it. They even started selling it overseas, especially making big money in Clusia, which allowed the gang to expand and grow into the largest faction under Blaze Hall.
Now, the Blaze Hall turned a blind eye to their drug trafficking, sometimes even facilitating their operations, particularly af Raindrop Bar, where they recruited new members.
