Chapter 38: The Discourteous Bastard!
The Snow Eagle spread its wings, spanning over ten meters. Like a cannonball, it flew towards the ground. Everyone, except for Jun Chester, was terrified out of their wits. How could there be such a gigantic eagle in the world? Blake Charlton, in particular, was frightened. As the massive creature grew closer, he stumbled backward and fell to the ground.
“What… what the hell is this?” Woods Randall’s face turned deathly pale, frozen in fear. Harold Pritchard quickly shielded Woods Randall, arms outstretched, his face contorted. With his eyes tightly shut, he appeared ready to face death!
Sandra Simpson, panicked, scurried to hide under a table, screaming in terror. “Jun Chester! Come here! Hurry, you fool!” Jun Chester, however, remained motionless, watching the approaching Snow Eagle with a faint smile.
The next moment, the Snow Eagle landed at Jun Chester’s feet, its razor-sharp eyes never leaving the painting Jun Chester had just completed. It was a scene of an icy, snow-capped mountain! Jun Chester gently stroked the Snow Eagle’s head. “You frightened everyone.”
It was then that Blake Charlton and the others realized that this enormous eagle had come because of Jun Chester. Even so, Blake Charlton dared not make a move, nor did Sandra Simpson emerge from under the table, shivering in terror. It took all of his strength to crawl out, looking utterly disheveled.
It was at this point that Woods Randall finally understood that the Snow Eagle was his master’s pet. He patted Harold Pritchard on the shoulder, pretending to be calm. “What are you doing? Are you scared?”
Not far away, Blake Charlton’s face twitched, wishing he could crawl into a hole. Woods Randall mustered up his courage and approached Jun Chester. “Master, where does this eagle come from? How can it be so huge?”
Jun Chester explained indifferently, “It’s one of the few aberrant birds in the world. I found two of them in an extremely cold place. This one is male, and he’s my companion. The female is with Phoenix.” Woods Randall appeared confused, not knowing who this “Phoenix” was.
Upon hearing the name “Phoenix,” Blake Charlton’s eyelids twitched. As Lord Charlton of Lordran, how could he not know who Phoenix was? The only female general of Lordran, Phoenix Myers – the Supreme Lord’s favorite and also Jun Chester’s disciple, who was currently stationed in the northern border of Lordran!
Jun Chester gently stroked the Snow Eagle’s head again. “Go.” The Snow Eagle appeared reluctant but still moved away and soared into the sky. This scene once again astonished everyone. Despite its size, the Snow Eagle took flight effortlessly, showing no signs of clumsiness.
As Blake Charlton and the others watched the Snow Eagle depart, it took them a long time to regain their composure. Eventually, Blake Charlton’s gaze fell back on the painting on the table. “Snow Mountain Flying Eagle! Could it be that this painting attracted the giant eagle?” With that thought, Blake Charlton suddenly turned to Jun Chester. “Master, may I have this painting as a gift?”
Just as Jun Chester was about to say something, Woods Randall interjected. “Mr. Charlton, if you address Mr. Osborn as Master, then my master is your master’s master. Therefore, this painting should belong to me!”
Blake Charlton frowned, but Jun Chester didn’t bother with their argument. “We agreed that this painting is for Sandra Simpson. If you want it, you’ll have to ask for her consent!” However, just then, Blake Charlton quickly signed his name on the painting. “It’s mine now!”
Woods Randall wouldn’t be outdone. He also signed his name on the painting and then turned to Sandra Simpson. “Miss Simpson, I’m willing to exchange all my collections for my master’s painting!”
Sandra Simpson’s heart pounded. All the collections in Randall Design? It was said that Mr. Woods had an authentic Van Gogh painting in his study! That alone was worth a fortune, not to mention the numerous other masterpieces in his possession, each a rare treasure!
As a result, Woods Randall had a nickname in Lordran – Half City! His collections, when combined, were enough to buy half of any city! And now, Woods Randall wanted to give her all his treasures in exchange for Jun Chester’s painting?
Sandra Simpson felt like she was going to faint. But in the next moment, she quickly snatched up Jun Chester’s painting.
“No one can buy it! This painting Jun drew for me!”
At that moment, it didn’t matter how valuable the five words Jun Chester had drawn were.
Just the signatures of Blake Charlton and Woods Randall alone were worth astronomical figures!
If she were to auction it off, she couldn’t even dare to imagine the price!
Sandra Simpson not only took away Jun Chester’s painting but also stored the other two.
They had promised her that these would be hers!
At this point, what shame did she need to feel?
Sandra Simpson carefully put away the three paintings and looked shyly at Jun Chester.
“Jun, if there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first.”
“By the way, next week we’re having a class reunion. You must join us. You’ve been away for seven years, and we all miss you!”
Jun Chester saw through Sandra Simpson’s thoughts with a single glance and smiled softly.
“I’ll be there, but don’t let anyone else know about what happened today.”
“Also, the reason I helped you today was actually because you secretly helped me with my homework back then.”
Sandra Simpson was dumbfounded on the spot.
Jun Chester…
How did he know that she had helped him with his homework back then?
Without time to think, she quickly left.
Since the three paintings were already in hand, she naturally just wanted to go home immediately.
On the other side, the kitchen.
Bella was personally cooking and preparing the dishes.
But she was still troubled, still worried about her situation.
Right now, her problems were not only Jun Chester but also David Chester.
Obviously, neither of the two had any good intentions towards her, but which side should she stand on?
At this moment, Bella received a text message.
It was from David Chester.
A list.
After reading it, Bella was utterly shocked.
Everyone on the list was a world-class dignitary.
They were all coming to Dirtmouth to attend Wilfrid Chester’s funeral on David Chester’s face!
Just how terrifying was David Chester?
As she was thinking, Bella received a phone call from David Chester.
David Chester’s laughter came through the phone.
“Did you see the list?”
Bella nervously swallowed.
“I saw it.”
David Chester chuckled.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
“I’ve been thinking. Jun Chester is, after all, Wilfrid Chester’s eldest son, and me? In the eyes of others, I am the son of a mistress!”
“It’s as if I don’t deserve to inherit!”
“So, I’m going to kill him in front of everyone!”
Bella narrowed her eyes.
“Jun Chester is a cultivator!”
David Chester sneered.
“Cultivator, my ass. Three years ago, I reached the Harmonization stage. Do you know what the Harmonization stage means?”
“Hehe, you don’t know!”
Bella suddenly recalled the conversation between Jun Chester and James Matthews before Wilfrid Chester’s violent death.
Thinking of this, Bella tested David Chester.
“I don’t understand cultivation, but do you know the ultimate realm of the Luminescence stage?”
