Heaven Domain (Iwan Cliff) novel Chapter 71

Chapter 71 Scarlett's Suspicion

Iwan left in the morning only after staying in Morgan Group for a while. He recalled the previous feelings, which he had had five years ago. Yes, the Morgan Tower had been built that year.

He had left, but the top families and elites in Cleveque City were still uneasy. Now they were even tenser. All of them were shrinking their forces, careful and cautious. They did not dare to be as unruly as they had been because a rumor had been spread to all those at the senior levels of the city overnight.

The rumor was: when they got home last night, Bob Waldorf, head of the Waldorf family, and Carl Bass, head of the Bass family, were all scared shitless-they had to be supported to walk, their faces ashen. Lawrence Wilson, of the Patrol Department, Charles Crawford, of the City Hall, were both the same. A little later, the Waldorf family and the Bass family announced that they would fully support Morgan Group, opening up all kinds of cooperation with it in all fields of Cleveque City.

The moguls having good relations with Bob Waldorf and Carl Bass visited them that night, hoping to get some information. Yet, they only got a few words: Jason was already dead; Morgan Group got a new leader, who was a peerless strongman; they should never offend him! They should never offend him! This news also astonished the city's top circles overnight. Instantly, everyone felt unsafe!

Of course, Iwan did not care about these things. He wouldn't waste time on unnecessary procedures when doing things. Instead, he would always finish his tasks as fast as possible. As for the fear and shock of the people in Cleveque City, he couldn't be bothered to care about them. As long as those people didn't come to offend him, he wouldn't have the mood to suppress them.

Iwan had flown back to Pasoland by air in the morning. He landed in Cleveque City yesterday, and he left this morning. His stay was less than a day, but he had astonished the people there, which they would never forget in their lives. After he left, Morgan Group released a series of official announcements, covering up what had happened yesterday with the excuse of various wrong operations. Therefore, some of the citizens who had not realized anything truly believed them because everything had happened so fast-the best of the top group companies in the city was subverted overnight!

When Iwan got back in Pasoland, Jayna drove a car to pick him up at the airport, and Emily went with her. She was really afraid that her father would be away for a very long time.

"Dad, dad, dad..." When Iwan walked out of the airport hall, Emily threw herself into his arms in great joy and began kissing him on the face.

"Hey, my good baby, look, I've done what I promised you! I'm truly back! I didn't lie to you, right? ... Look at the little toy I brought you..." As he kissed her on her small round cheek, he took a yellow duck toy out of his pocket and handed it to her.

"Thank you, dad. Thank you, dad. I want to be lifted, I want to be lifted..." As soon as she took the toy with great joy, Emily began asking Iwan to hold her aloft.

"Emily! Your dad has just come back. He has been busy for a whole day. He's tired. Don't mess around..." Jayna said to Emily. Now she was wearing a pair of sunglasses, a black long dress, and a pair of black high-heeled shoes.

Iwan lifted Emily up, letting her sit on his shoulder. Keeping her steady with one hand and holding Jayna's thin hand with the other, he said, "Nothing. I'm not tired. Let's go. Go home..."

The moment Iwan held her hand, Jayna's heart pounded with her face turning slightly red. But she nodded when hearing his words. Then she asked a little worriedly, "Did you get everything done this time in Cleveque City?"

Jayna was really a little worried because she remembered that when Iwan escaped five years ago, he had told her that the one who had betrayed him was in Cleveque City. Because of this, Jayna had been a little worried after Iwan left yesterday afternoon. She was a woman anyway. Although she knew that Iwan was very strong and seemed to be a good fighter, she believed that Iwan was just a soldier from the special forces. But he was no longer a member of the Military Headquarters.

Therefore, after he left yesterday afternoon, something had been weighing on her mind, and she had been awake last night. On the one hand, she was worried that something would happen to him, on the other hand, she was afraid that he would do something violating the law impulsively. If that was true, the family of three, who had reunited with so much difficulty, had to separate again.

Iwan could see the worry in her eyes, so he nodded at her with a smile and said, "Don't worry. When I arrived in Cleveque City, I finally found that the man who betrayed me back then was already dead. He died in a car accident. Alas, or I wouldn't have returned so soon, would I?" Iwan emphasized the last few words about his return.

Jayna thought about it and believed him. Iwan had just spent one night there, and he had returned this morning. If he had really gone to deal with the traitor, one night wouldn't have been enough. Only then was she greatly relieved. After that, she held Iwan's hand to comfort him, "Then don't think too much! The person has finally paid for his evil act. Let the past pass. Don't think about it anymore..."

Iwan nodded with a smile because his wife was easy to fool. He was helpless. If he told her his real identity and those things he had done in the External Regions over the years, he believed that she would be scared sick.

For example, he could easily go to a small kingdom's royal family to drink and chat with them or sit on their king's throne for a while; he owned many islands and banks in the External Regions; if he wanted to meet the leaders of some foreign nations, they would have to arrange it in a hurry, and so on. But he could not tell her these things now.

He would play it by ear, and he would do it slowly. These years, Jayna had been in these small places, and her horizons had been restrained. When she arrived in Cleveque City, he would tell her a few things bit by bit. Then it would be easier for her to accept them, he thought.

"For example, in Cleveque City, the Military Headquarters of the Dragon Kingdom suddenly restored my God of War's identity? Haha... this is very good..." he thought.
