TRASHED HUSBAND AND UNFAITHFUL WIFE, VOLUME 5 - Season 8 Episode 4

Jordan and Jamie had the same view. When faced with a powerful enemy like the seven families, it was useless to admit defeat. They could only fight with all their might!

“We should contact the relevant departments in the US immediately!” Jordan instructed.

Jesse shouted, “No one is allowed to contact anyone! I’m the head of the family now! I have the final say! No one is allowed to go against the seven families! As the head of the Steele family, I have the responsibility to protect everyone! Listen to me. We will all head out to welcome the seven families!”

Jesse was completely different from Jamie and Jordan. Although he was mature and steady, he was also timid and afraid of trouble. He was used to bowing and scraping in front of the other secret families and only knew how to curry favor with them.

The Steeles went out and waited outside the castle for the seven families to arrive.

Before long, gusts of wind blew by. The weather was calm so it was obvious that the wind was produced by something flying overhead, but nothing could be seen.

Gradually, the winds faded off and the seven invisible planes appeared.

It was the seven families!

Members of the seven families walked out of the planes. Every one of them had ill intentions!

Apart from Lota.

“Jordan!”

Lota’s hair danced in the wind. Compared to before, she was dressed more maturely today. She already had the aura of a lady-in-charge.

However, her face was still pure and innocent.

Hurrying over, she stood in front of Jordan, expressing her support for him and the Steeles.

“Lota.”

Jordan nodded gratefully at her.

The people from the other six families stood opposite the Steeles with serious expressions.

Miyamoto Masaki was the first to curse at Jordan. “Jordan, you beast, liar, b*stard, trash! You planted Dragon as a spy in my family! In our previous fight, you only won because you took my family’s strength-enhancing medicine! You even lied that your family developed the Mirakuru serum. F*ck you! You tricked the Miyamoto family. I’ll tear you into pieces today!”

With that, Miyamoto Masaki walked over to challenge Jordan.

Miyamoto Masaki did not manage to capture Dragon earlier. So he decided to settle the score directly with Jordan.

However, Chairman Rong raised his hand and stopped him. “Let’s get down to business first. Let’s talk about personal grudges later.”

Park Sang-jun agreed. “That’s right. Let’s see Charleston’s body first!”

Park Sang-jun shouted at the Steeles. “Jordan, where’s your grandfather? Why didn’t he come out to greet us? Is he dead? Hahaha… that old thing, I knew he wouldn’t be able to survive for long!”

Charleston had just passed away. How could Jordan tolerate others insulting his grandfather?

Jordan clenched his fists tightly. He wished he could rush up and knock all of Park Sang-jun’s teeth out! “B*stard, what did you say?!” Jordan roared, his eyes flashing furiously.

Park Sang-jun snorted. “You know very well what I’m talking about. Tell me, is your grandfather dead?!”

Just as Jordan was about to retort, Jesse stopped him. They could not let the other secret families know about Charleston’s death.

Chairman Rong chimed in. “I heard that Mr. Steele suddenly fell seriously ill. I’m afraid he won’t be able to make it. Is that true?”

Jesse smiled. “Chairman, thank you for your concern. My grandfather is only suffering from a minor illness. He is resting now.”

Chairman Rong said, “Oh? Is that so? Let’s go in and see him.”

With that, the six families took a few steps forward. The Steeles were in a fluster.

“No!” Jamie stopped everyone. “How can you barge into our family’s castle just like that?!”

Chairman Rong glanced at Jamie. “You’re Jamie, right? You haven’t even participated in the great meetings before. You have no right to stand here and speak!”

With that, Jordan stepped forward to support his brother. “You can only enter our castle if we invite you!”

Chairman Rong smiled. “Jordan, you know that you won’t be able to stop us all. At least we came in peace today. If we decide to treat the Steeles as our enemy and blow up your castle, it will be a piece of cake for us to do so. Do you want us to come to arms?”

Jesse panicked at Chairman Rong’s threat.

Jesse whispered to his family, “They must already have confirmation of Grandpa’s death. We can’t hide it. Why don’t we let them in?”

Without waiting for the others to agree, he said loudly, “Alright then, please come in!”

Jesse led the seven families to Charleston’s room. Charleston’s body had already been cleaned and changed into a fresh set of clothes.

The seven families entered and saw Charleston’s corpse. The Rong family even used an AI robot doctor to assess Charleston’s death.

“Sigh.”

Chairman Rong shook his head in resignation and muttered to himself. “Will none of us from the eight secret families ever escape the curse? Myself included?”

Chairman Rong was already in his 50s and was getting closer and closer to the cursed age of 80. Therefore, Charleston’s death was a huge blow to him. He had hoped that Charleston could defy the heavens and escape this curse.

Although Park Sang-jun was about the same age as Chairman Rong, he did not sigh when he saw Charleston’s corpse. Instead, he smiled smugly.

‘Shaun is really an expert. He didn’t use any weapons but still managed to kill Charleston. He didn’t even need to see him!’

Park Sang-jun admired Shaun but he was also guarded against him.

After confirming Charleston’s death, Chairman Rong turned around and walked to the door. He said to Jordan, “Jordan, you’re the head of the Steele family now, right? Prepare a larger room for us to hold a meeting. We have something to tell you.”

Before Jordan could respond, Jesse rushed over. “Chairman, you’ve misunderstood. I am the one in charge of the Steele family now. If you have anything to say, say it to me!”

Jesse was afraid that others would misunderstand that Jordan was the head of the family.

Chairman Rong looked at Jesse indifferently. “Alright, I don’t care which of you is the head. You can all come over. We have something to tell your family.”

Jesse quickly said, “Yes, please follow me. I’ll bring you to a more spacious room.”

Arriving in the living room, Jesse asked the servants to prepare some tea and snacks before instructing them to leave.

Now, only members of the seven families, Rowan, Jesse, Jamie and Jordan were left in the room.

Chairman Rong sat in the main seat and said solemnly, “In the previous great meeting, we discussed whether to expel the Steele family from our ranks. The Steeles have repeatedly violated the rules and their technology is lagging behind. They are not on the same level as the other seven secret families. By right, they should be expelled. However, Jordan used deception to help the Steele family avoid being expelled. He made us think that the Steele family was very powerful.

“But now, we’ve already figured out the truth. The Steeles’ so-called cutting-edge medicines were stolen from the Park and Miyamoto families. As for their development of the Mirakuru serum, it was also an outright lie. Therefore, I’ve decided to call another vote on whether we should expel the Steele family!”
