chapter 5 Ink jade finger ring

Everyone was stunned, especially Anna Dunn.

Her eyes widened and she hesitated to speak.

"What are you still doing? Get out."

Audrey Horton gave Anna Dunn a cold look, her voice cold.

"you!"

Anna Dunn gritted her teeth, but in the end she didn't say anything more, got in the car and ran away in embarrassment.

Only then did Audrey Horton arrive in front of Arnold Payne.

A smile appeared on Arnold Payne's face.

"Audrey."

Hearing this familiar title, Audrey Horton also smiled.

She came to Haido ten years ago. Without the help of the Lin family, she would not be where she is today, nor would she have a business empire worth more than one billion.

If it weren't for the fact that she had to go overseas due to company business issues and didn't come back until a few days ago, she would never have allowed the tragedy of a month ago to happen.

After learning about Arnold Payne return, Audrey Horton was worried that Anna Dunn would make trouble, so she directly used the company's power to help Arnold Payne regain his equity.

But even so, my heart is still filled with self-blame.

"Arnold Payne, Richard Hayes's death is me."

"Audrey, there is no need to say more. I already understood it before I came back. If you hadn't helped me every step of the way in the past seven years, the Lin family would have been gone long ago, and they wouldn't have been able to hold on to this last property."

"Richard Hayes's death has nothing to do with you."

Arnold Payne smiled, but Audrey Horton had a complicated face.

"Arnold Payne, I know that Richard Hayes's death has hit you hard, but the current situation in Haido is no longer what it was seven years ago. If you want to revitalize the Lin family, you can't mess with the Smith family for the time being."

Hearing this, Arnold Payne expression changed.

"I know you are angry, but the Haido is different from outside the country. I don't care what happens to you outside the country. Since you have returned to the country, you must abide by the rules here."

"They took advantage of my departure to attack Richard Hayes and caused this tragedy. I will never allow this to happen again."

"Arnold Payne, listen to me and hand over Adam Smith."

Lin Chen was about to speak, but was directly interrupted by Audrey Horton. She took a deep breath and said: "Arnold Payne, I can understand your current mood, but you have to know that Richard Hayes's death was more because he wanted to help you stay. This is the last property of the Lin family."

"Now you have no foundation in Haido, and this club is your last capital. Provoking the Smith family will only make your situation more difficult, and you will not even be able to hold on to your last property."

"I will ask Mr. Banbhan for help in this matter. As long as he can come forward, there will be room for change in this matter."

Taking a deep breath, Arnold Payne slowly spoke.

"Audrey, I can listen to you this time, but what about next time?"

"It was the Smith family who killed Richard Hayes. I will find them sooner or later."

"But not now."

Audrey Horton took over Arnold Payne's words, "Arnold Payne, whether you want to admit it or not, the Smith family is not something you can afford to offend now. It's not like you don't know about the tragedy of the Lin family seven years ago. I promised your father that he would If I take good care of you, I will never break my promise."

After taking a deep look at Arnold Payne, Audrey Horton regained her iceberg-like posture, waved her hand and said, "Take Adam Smith away."

Everyone stepped forward without saying a word.

When Shawn saw this, he immediately snorted and blocked the way of Audrey Horton and others.

"Get out of the way!"Arnold Payne turned his head sharply, with chills already flowing in his eyes.

Shawn was stunned for a moment, but he didn't say anything and just got out of the way.

Audrey Horton's people quickly brought Adam Smith into the car, and Audrey Horton relaxed a little. After seven years of development in Haido, she knew better what to do to allow Arnold Payne to develop better.

"Leave this matter to me. Don't provoke the Smith family for the time being. If you want to do anything, please inform me as soon as possible."

"Also, come to our company tomorrow and tell me everything about your seven years abroad."

With her beautiful eyes widened, the iceberg-like beauty showed a coquettish look for the first time, smiled charmingly at Arnold Payne, turned around and left.

It wasn't until Audrey Horton completely disappeared from sight that a smile appeared on Arnold Payne's face.

"Master, just now?"

Turning his head and looking at Shawn indifferently, Arnold Payne waved his hand and said, "Audrey's words will be my words from now on. She is a woman who values ​​friendship, and our Lin family owes her."

"By the way, who is Mr. Banbhan?"

Shawn quickly said: "The strongest people in Haido now are none other than the Four Clans, Five Cardinals The Twelve Foundation."

"This Mr. Banbhan is the boss behind Wind Cardinal Pavilion, one of the Five Cardinals ."

Arnold Payne nodded and said, "Check him and prepare for the reopening of the club."

"yes!"

Looking at the thick night sky in the distance, Arnold Payne's face darkened.

He only did three things when he returned to the country this time.

Revenge, restoration of the family, and Audrey Horton.

Beyond that, he doesn't want any force to interfere in his life.

Saving Kathy Dun today was just an accident. Now he wanted to know whether it was an accident or if he had other motives.

After withdrawing his thoughts, Arnold Payne returned to the room.

Kathy Dun was still unconscious, his brows furrowed, obviously suffering from severe pain.

Arnold Payne frowned slightly and walked over.

The blood flowing from the wound had turned gray-black and exuded a strange smell.

The dagger is poisonous.

"A handiwork from Chinese Turkestan?"

After checking the wound, Arnold Payne shook his head slightly.

Chinese Turkestan Poisonous Art are based on intestinal parasite, most of which act on the inside of the body, destroying the internal organs. If used incorrectly, it will aggravate the injuries on the body.

But this poison only acts on the surface of the body. After feeling Kathy Dun's pulse, Arnold Payne was more sure of his guess.

This kind of poison brings more pain to the poisoned person.

"That's true of the poison in the middle of Eastern Han. However, there are very few descendants in the middle of Eastern Han. Moreover, the rules are very strict. If a killer is discovered, he will always be executed directly."

"The other party is so blatant, obviously he is not from Eastern Han."

"interesting."

Arnold Payne smiled and directly untied Kathy Dun's clothes.

Although she was in a coma, Kathy Dun could still barely maintain a trace of consciousness. This was the instinct of her profession. If she was not careful, she would be hunted down. If she was not careful, she would have died hundreds of times.

The sudden chill made Kathy Dun shiver, and he forced himself to open his eyes.

What came into view was a strange room with bright lights, but there was a familiar face in front of him.

Arnold Payne!

He was staring at him with wide eyes.

Subconsciously lowering his head, he found that he was naked!

Kathy Dun suddenly woke up, his watery eyes widening.

"Asshole! Take advantage of me!"

Roaring angrily, he straightened up and stood up, but felt the clothes on his body slipping off.

The cool wind blew, and Kathy Dun stood stunned on the bed.

Arnold Payne pursed his lips.

"good body."

"I will fight with you!"

He casually pulled the quilt aside to cover his body, then grabbed the pillow next to him and rushed towards Arnold Payne. The violent movement caused the quilt to lift up, his long white legs flew up, and his white and tender feet kicked Arnold Payne directly in the face. passed.

Arnold Payne frowned slightly, took a wrong step to dodge the attack, and then raised his hand to catch the kicked ankle.

At this moment, Kathy Dun felt an irresistible force.

"Beauty, what are you doing to beat up your savior?"

"A savior? I'm going to be the savior of your grandma's banana peel!"

"If my aunt doesn't fight to the death with you today, my surname will not be Du!"

Roaring angrily, Kathy Dun broke free from Arnold Payne's control with his long legs, grabbed the pillow and smashed it hard towards Arnold Payne.

He subconsciously blocked it, and the pillow suddenly hit his arm.

Snapped!

The pillow collapsed under the huge force, and the lint inside suddenly flew away.

Just at this moment, the door was pushed open.

Shawn walked in with documents in hand.

"Master, this is the club."

Before he finished speaking, he froze on the spot.

Kathy Dun, who was in the room and wanted to fight Arnold Payne , was also stunned.

"excuse me."

Click.

With only this sentence left, Shawn left directly. Arnold Payne shrugged and said, "I just said this is not good."

"You bastard!"

Kathy Dun roared and was about to move forward when Arnold Payne's voice came again.

"The poison has just been removed from your body. It's best to stay calm."

"Detoxification?"

Kathy Dun was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that several wounds on his body had been bandaged. His eyes fell on Arnold Payne again and he found that this guy was smiling.

A blush suddenly appeared on his face, and then he glared at Arnold Payne fiercely and said, "Don't think that I will thank you if you help me."

"I will get this debt back sooner or later!"

"How can you ask for it and strip me naked too?"

The smile on Arnold Payne face remained unchanged, but Kathy Dun was already furious. When he saw it was already dawn outside, his expression suddenly changed.

"Just wait for me, there is no end between us."

Grabbing the clothes on the side, Kathy Dun threw the quilt directly towards Arnold Payne and rushed out of the room.

Looking at the figure disappearing from sight, Arnold Payne's lips curved into a smile.

There was a knock on the door and Shawn walked in.

"Master, would you like to accompany someone to keep an eye on that woman?"

"No need."

As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed the shining finger in the corner. It was black and blue, with strange characters engraved on the inside. You could vaguely feel a mysterious power on it.

Was it left by Kathy Dun?

"Master, do you want me to ask someone to check it out?"

He waved his hand and put away his finger, and then his eyes fell on Shawn.

"looking for me?"

"The East side information you requested has been sorted out, and the preparations before the club reopens are almost complete, but there is no movement from the Smith family."

After receiving the information, Arnold Payne sneered and said, "It's only been one night, what can they do?"

After finishing his words, he casually opened the information.

It is recorded above that the Smith family is indeed the strongest in the East side , but their hands cannot reach this far, and they cannot control them now.

After all, Audrey Horton had promised last night that she would not provoke the Smith family for the time being.

"Master, I'm afraid it will be difficult for this club to reopen."

"How to say."

Looking through the information casually, a chill flashed in Arnold Payne eyes.

"Not to mention funding is a problem, just the local snakes around here are a bit troublesome."

"oh?"

"This area has always had its own rules. Anna Dunn sold this land to a powerful local snake nearby. Although we got the equity back, I don't think they will let it go."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shawn's people ran over.

"The clubhouse is surrounded."
