His Stunning Doctor Wife novel Chapter 749

"Mr. Ann, If you're unhappy with this arrangement, I'll give up the Rudraksha tree," added Madam Jodie.

Hearing this, Mr. Ann sneered, "The Rudraksha tree is nothing if compared with the Nine Leaf Ice Flower. I am willing to give up the Rudraksha tree, can you give me the Nine Leaf Ice Flower instead?"

Madam Jodie was sullen. She said, "No way. I must acquire the Nine Leaf Ice Flower."

Sensing the brewing fight between both of them, Mr. Liu, the man in a short robe, quickly interrupted, "Mr. Ann, Madam Jodie, both of you are well-respected seniors in our region, and both the Dark Souls Clan and the Quiet Heart Monastery are famous sects in Southcloud District. Why are you both putting your reputation on the line by quarreling over such a trivial issue?"

"I have a suggestion. Since there are nine petals in total, and we happened to come from three different parties. Why don't we divide them equally, so that each of us gets three petals. Isn't that brilliant?"

However, as soon as Mr. Liu finished, Mr. Ann and

Madam Jodie whipped their heads to Mr. Liu and said in unison, "Divide equally? No way!"

Mr. Ann said in a low and threatening voice, "Mr. Liu, is the Liu family of Southcloud District trying to fight with the Dark Souls Clan?"

Madam Jodie also shot Mr. Liu a death stare and said, "Our Quiet Heart Monastery is set on getting the Nine Leaf Ice Flower."

Hearing this, Mr. Liu could not help but put on a bitter smile. He understood that the Liu family he came from was not on par with the Dark Souls Clan and the Quiet Heart Monastery in terms of power.

Therefore, he came up with the proposal to divide the petals in equal. After all, that would be the best choice for him as the weakest party of the three.

However, he did not expect his suggestion to be shot down outright as soon as he voiced his mind.

It seemed that the duo was serious about the Nine Leaf Ice Flower, they were prepared to fight till the end. As for how many petals would be left for the Liu family in the end, Mr. Liu felt hopeless thinking about it.

As Mr. Liu had gone silent, Mr. Ann and Madam Jodie immediately moved their attention away from him. Mr. Ann glared at Madam Jodie and said, "Madam Jodie, give it to me. The Dark Souls Clan will owe you a favor, and I will always remember your kindness."

Shaking her head, Madam Jodie pressed on firmly. "Why don't we do it the other way round? You give it to me, in return, I will remember your favor."

The atmosphere was getting increasingly tense, as if they were about to break out into a fight any second now.

But at this particular moment, a loud sneer came from their top and drifted into their ears without fail. "A group of stupid thieves, you haven't manage to steal anything yet, but you're already discussing on dividing the loot. This is ridiculous."

Hearing this, the trio in the cave were thunderstruck. They bellowed in anxiety, "Who, who is talking?"

"Who's hiding there? Show yourself!"

Meanwhile, their followers who were standing guards outside the cave, all rushed in and said in frenzied voices, "Oh no, that Aaron Xie is back, and he's brought a man to aid him."

"Aaron, that old man, he had the guts to come back?" Mr. Ann frowned.

"An aid? What aid?" asked Madam Jodie.

Right at this moment, two figures strode into the cave. They were none other than Fade Chen and Aaron Xie.
