Chapter 114: Mori Jones’s Treatment!
As Maddox Cooper was huffing and puffing with rage, a few of the direct descendants of the Cooper family urgently whispered to him.
“Elder Cooper, calm down, now is the time to hold our temper. We must give priority to the general situation!”
“Yes, Elder Cooper, we will go and test the waters with the Ancient Martial Strongman to see what has happened. You really can’t be impulsive.”
“The celebration is about to begin, David Herb might show up at any time. If we fight with this kid now, the future of our Cooper family will be ruined!”
A few descendants started to persuade him quickly, fearing that Maddox’s impulsive behavior might ruin their ambitions.
Phew!
Maddox took a deep breath, his mood slightly easing, and a bit of clarity returning to his angry eyes.
“You’re right, I was almost screwed over by this kid!” Maddox Cooper said somberly, shooting a fierce glance at White Mitchell.
“Elder Cooper, we suggest putting him outside with the subordinates. As long as he doesn’t appear inside, he shouldn’t pose too much of a problem,” the descendants of the Cooper family continued.
Upon hearing these words, Maddox nodded silently and immediately ordered: “Leave it to you to handle this matter. Remember, assign more people to watch over him. Under no circumstances can he appear inside.”
When the Cooper family’s descendants heard this, their hearts skipped a beat as they looked at White Mitchell again, now with a hint of dread.
To them, this was not a pleasant task.
After all, they had all witnessed White Mitchell’s strength. If White Mitchell really wanted to cause trouble, they wouldn’t be able to stop him and could even become the victims.
But at this point, they had no better plan and had to go through with it.
The descendants of the Cooper family, who received the order, approached White Mitchell with dread on their faces.
“Your…your seat has been arranged, please…please follow me.” The descendant from the Cooper family had evasive eyes, not daring to look directly at White Mitchell.
“Oh?” White Mitchell looked playfully at Maddox and said slowly, “So you are not going to break my leg anymore?”
“You!”
Maddox, again infuriated to the point of his face turning red, bit his teeth so hard that he was about to burst a lung.
“Elder Cooper, please calm down. Elder Cooper, please calm down.” The people next to him quickly advised.
“Humph! I am going to let you survive a few more days! But when the time comes, I will make sure you pay a heavy price! You just wait!”
Maddox snorted coldly, turned back furiously, and stormed into the villa.
Phew!
Seeing this, the people from Cooper Family breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Elder Cooper wasn’t maddened by White, everything could be discussed.
“White, let it go, let’s just sit down.” At this point, Mori Jones spoke softly. Hearing this, White Mitchell chose not to continue tangling with it. He wasn’t in a rush anyway, because the real drama was yet to come.
Afterwards, White Mitchell and Mori Jones were ushered towards the last seats of the celebration.
The Cooper family’s celebration was divided into two venues. Only the inner one was for the real VIPs of the Cooper family.
The outside was usually for some unimportant business partners and subordinate senior executives.
At this moment, the place where White Mitchell and Mori Jones were seated was at the farthest end of the outer venue. It could be said to be the most inconspicuous position.
Mori Jones didn’t say anything about it and went along compliantly.
This wasn’t the first time she had attended Maddox’s birthday celebration, nor was it the first time she had been treated like this.
She knew very well that the Cooper family didn’t like her, but she kept coming back time and time again, trying to win over Elder Cooper, while also enduring the exclusion and disdain of everyone else.
Her wish was for the Cooper family to recognize her contribution someday, and give her daughter with Rhett the legitimacy she deserved, and a loving home.
For her daughter, she could endure any humiliation.
Clearly, she had grown accustomed to things like today.
Today, however, she unwittingly dragged White Mitchell into it, which was the last thing she wanted.
Thinking of this, Mori Jones turned to White Mitchell and said, “White, ignore their words. They’re targeting me, not you.”
As if to confirm Mori’s words, a few sharp-tongued women approached them as soon as she finished speaking.
“Oh, isn’t this the slut from the Jones Family? Being a mistress to this extent is a wonder of the world.” A very plump middle-aged woman mocked.
“What’s strange about that? It’s not her first time being shameless. Maybe she’s so thick-skinned that she’s become immune to everything.” Another woman added.
Against their mockery, Mori Jones managed to maintain a calm face, acting as though she hadn’t heard their words at all.
The middle-aged women, seeing Mori Jones’s calm demeanor, were momentarily devoid of interest. It felt like punching cotton.
Just as those middle-aged women felt self-deprecating and prepared to leave, a group of young men appeared in the crowd.
Everyone saw them and instantly revealed a fearful expression, backing away at once.
Even the middle-aged women who were sharp-tongued just now, showed deep dread on their faces after they saw these people, quickly making way for them.
At this moment, everyone at the venue was avoiding these suddenly appeared young people as if they were deadly creatures.
Not long after, these young figures, regarded as deadly creatures by the crowd, came to White Mitchell and Mori Jones with an intimidating air.
“Fuck! You slut came, huh? You really are shameless!
And you! You damn ex-convict, today, we’ll settle both new and old feuds!”
Obviously, the person who came was none other than Connor Cooper, who had had his arm disabled by White Mitchell last night.
At this time, although Connor’s right hand was still in plaster, it did not affect the arrogance and self-importance on his face.
“What, did I go easy on you last night, eh?” At this time, White Mitchell said casually.
But this seemingly nonchalant remark enraged Connor: “Fuck! You’re asking for death!”
“Stop! Connor!”
Just as Connor was about to stir up trouble, Rhett rushed out of the house and yelled, “What are you doing?! Today is Elder Cooper’s birthday celebration, we can discuss other matters afterward!”
Everyone thought that Rhett’s appearance would make Connor restrain himself. But it turned out that Connor didn’t even have his own father in his eyes.
Connor turned his head slowly, glanced indifferently at Rhett, then said fiercely, “Rhett! Don’t think because you’re my father, that you can dictate my actions!
Don’t forget your own status, without my mother, you’d be nothing! Beat it! If you dare to protect this slut today, I’ll make sure you regret it!”
