Chapter 1995

Author: Only For You
By the time morning broke, the Driscoll family's first wave of retaliation had wrapped up without a hitch.

Maurice had gone to bed long before, never bothering to concern himself with something this trivial. With the firepower they had sent, he believed Andrew had no chance.

In Maurice's eyes, everyone else, aside from Andrew himself, was just useless dead weight.

Before dawn, Maurice was woken up. "Dad, last night our Shadow Division raided Serenity Villa, but we came back with nothing!"

Scarlett stood there with a dark look on her face.

Maurice swung his legs out of bed, frowning. "Nothing? What does that mean? Where's Andrew's crew? Did they take them all down?"

Scarlett's jaw tightened. "That little punk was on high alert and set an ambush inside Serenity Villa. Not only did we take heavy casualties, but his people pulled out early and disappeared somewhere we can't track."

Maurice gave a cold snort. "Dead men are nothing. In the Driscoll family, lives are the chea

    Shiloh grumbled, "But Andrew just keeps dragging, and I don't know when he'll actually help me." Joe's eyes lit up. "Exactly! If he breaks his promises, it means he doesn't care about you. Andrew already has people around him now, and he's too busy to even think about you. So why don't you stay with me? Let me take you away from Blumedale to Goldridge and get you the help you need, alright?" Shiloh hesitated for a moment, obviously a little moved. Joe's gaze burned hotter as he pressed on. "Don't you trust me? I promise, I'll be the only one in this world who treats you better than I treat myself. So come with me, leave Blumedale, and let me take you to Goldridge. It's so much more fun than here." Shiloh's childlike curiosity sparked, her eyes shining. "Really? Is Goldridge really that amazing?" Joe nodded firmly. "Yes, everything there is better. And most importantly, it'll just be the two of us, living together. I'll take care of you every single day and make sure you're

    "Master Shiloh, will you leave Blumedale with me?" In the vast white snow, two figures strolled side by side. The man on the left was handsome and tall, so good-looking that you could not find a single flaw. The lady beside him was pure and beautiful, wearing a white winter coat that made her look adorable and charming. Yet in her eyes, there was often a dazed confusion that made her seem a little absentminded. "Joe, why would we leave Blumedale? This place is pretty nice, isn't it? There's good food and fun things to do. I can even work part-time jobs and make lots of money. Honestly, I don't want to leave." As she spoke, Shiloh stopped and looked at him. Joe felt his heart melt seeing her adorable expression. However, he kept these feelings buried deep inside. He used to be obsessed with martial arts, but then he met Lauren and thought he had fallen in love with her. However, it was not until he met Shiloh that he realized this lady was different from all the others.

    Mia was not a pushover either, so she started fighting back. After all, she did not believe Maurice could know the truth. The more she resisted and the more intense she became, the less suspicious Maurice should become of her. All she had to do was wait for the Driscoll family to fight Andrew to the death. Franklin, the father of her child, was already dead and gone. When that time came, there would be no evidence left, and no one could prove that Joe was not Maurice's son. Of course, things would be different if Maurice went completely insane and decided to get a paternity test. If it really came to that, Mia was prepared to accept it and just take Joe away from the Driscoll family. However, she knew Maurice was too proud to get tested. Getting a test would be admitting that he had been cheated on and had raised another man's son for over 20 years. Even Maurice would not have the courage to face that kind of truth. "Alright, I guess I was being paranoid. I'm sorry, Mia.

    "Keep that bitch under tight watch, don't let her out of your sight for even a second. Don't you dare let her leave your line of vision for one step," Mia ordered the two bodyguards before quickly walking away. She had barely walked out of the courtyard when she ran into Maurice, who was rushing over. "Why do you look so terrible? What happened?" he asked, studying Mia carefully. A flash of panic crossed Mia's face, but she quickly replied, "Nothing, I'm fine. By the way, Maurice, how are your preparations going?" Maurice snorted coldly. "If Andrew dares to show up, I'll send him straight to hell. What about Victoria? You didn't hurt her, did you?" Mia replied through gritted teeth, "I slapped her a few times. That bitch deserves to die." Maurice replied flatly, "We need to keep her alive for now, in case things go wrong. We can deal with her after we finish off Andrew." Mia opened her mouth, then hesitated. She was debating whether to tell Maurice about Andrew's relati

    Veronica said, "Not only will Andrew survive, but he'll wipe out your entire Driscoll family, and you along with it." Mia's voice turned icy. "You're dreaming! The Driscoll family is fully mobilized and waiting for him. If he dares to come, he'll die for sure." She scoffed and added, "I can't see through you. You're hoping I'll kill you so Andrew can fight without worrying about you. But don't worry, Victoria, I'm not killing you yet. I'm going to use you to make Andrew kneel and take his own life. I'll use his head to honor Franklin." Victoria's smile faded as she spoke softly. "If you try that, I promise you'll die horribly. Back then, you weren't even worthy to carry my shoes. Even without my martial skills, I still see you as nothing more than trash!" Mia's eyes blazed with rage, and she raised her hand to strike again, only for Victoria to spit in her face. She mocked, "Bitch, you really think you're something special? Back then, you were just a used-up whore that Frankl

    "Maurice, it's been years since I came to Gabo Creek, and it seems your family's standing has slipped," a teasing voice called from outside the study. "Heh, when any random nobody dares storm your base, maybe the Driscoll family really isn't what it used to be." Maurice's eyes narrowed sharply as he turned toward the voice. Whoever dared to mock the Driscolls so openly had guts. However, when he saw who it was, the killing intent in his gaze vanished. He gave a cold snort and said flatly, "Barnaby, what are you doing here?" The newcomer was short and stocky, his skin weathered like a farmer's. Nonetheless, those who knew his true identity understood how dangerous he really was. Barnaby Hale, Director of Chetvine Special Ops, nicknamed the Crazy Barnaby, a devil who moved in the shadows. He said, "Nothing much, just checking in. Maurice, you can handle this, right?" Maurice's mouth twitched. "Barnaby, you underestimate the Driscoll family. Just watch… You'll see a massacre
