His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 670

"Nothing's confirmed yet. Don't be so discouraged." Nathaniel shook his head and flicked his cigarette. "Don't forget, Henry didn't come back alone."

"Are you talking about the group of so-called ancient kickboxers that he brought back?" Arianna raised her eyebrows disapprovingly, "I'm not trying to rain on your parade, but the so-called old kickboxer family is overstated. For years, no one has seen them in action, nor has anyone seen how powerful they are. I'm not trying to pry, but you've been with Lily for many years. Is she that powerful?"

Nathaniel did not answer.

"See, although they may have been powerful in the past, don't forget what era we're in now. How can their skills be stronger than guns? Even if we don't have our weapons, if they are as powerful as the legend goes, why didn't Henry make a move? Why do they have to wait until the police get involved? From what I see, it’s all just a bluff!"

Initially, she did not want to say any of these. If everything were smooth sailing, she would be delighted.

Whether the kickboxers were powerful had nothing to do with her. After all, she was a businesswoman. Her goal was to win over the Tanner family, then take over Brown City before she sought to control the whole country's market.

Seeing how they had already progressed to this point and Nathaniel was still rambling about the kickboxers Henry brought, Arianna could not help but give him a reality check. It was always better to have both feet on the ground than one head in the air.

However, Nathaniel disagreed. He did not speak, which indicated that he did not see eye to eye with Arianna. He had indeed seen how powerful Lily was. Back during his sneak attack, he watched Lily fight countless thugs on her own. Since then, a layer of fear was instilled in him.

Although he had no idea how powerful the kickboxers were, one thing for sure was that these people were stronger than ordinary humans. Even the bodyguards that were with them were much more powerful.

Of course, he didn't plan to tell Arianna any of these. After all, arguing with her about this was meaningless.

"It's hard to tell what will happen on the side of the Lodge family. Since the police have already intervened, we shouldn't get involved. Now that I have some free time, let's take care of the business here first." Nathaniel put out his cigarette in the ashtray and sat upright. "One step at a time."

Hearing this, Arianna leaned forward. "Wait a minute!"

"There's nothing we can do about the Lodge family right now," he said as he eyed her suspiciously.

She smiled and took out a flash drive. "This is the recording of that day. Take it back and listen to it carefully. We'll see if we can use any of it. I think you're better than me at this kind of thing. You're the best at taking advantage of public opinions!"

"How did you get this?!" As soon as those words came out, Nathaniel immediately felt like he had overstepped.

This woman was indeed cunning.
