The Son-In-Law Shot to Fame novel Chapter 402

“That's right. It had nothing to do with us. But now, Jennard Construction is preparing to build a new three-lane highway there. Hence, we should find a way to claim compensation, don't you think?” said Albert.

“But everyone is talking about how Tristan Lane has fallen for Jennifer. What happens if we offend him?” Andrew asked.

He could not help worrying about that.

Albert merely gave a mirthless chuckle. “Jennifer and the others are just deluding themselves with wishful thinking. If it's true that Tristan likes Jennifer, why wouldn't he have stepped forward by now? He could've quietly made a comment or something, at least.”

Andrew mulled over the matter before speaking again. “Jennifer is in the midst of constructing Lord Campbell Avenue. What'll we do if we incur Lord Campbell's wrath?”

“That won't happen. This road isn’t part of Lord Campbell Avenue. Lord Campbell won’t take any notice of it,” Albert answered.

Andrew perked up when he heard that. Rubbing his hands gleefully, he asked, “In that case, how much should we ask for?”

It wasn't that Neil didn't consider remediation, but it was just that the results were never too significant. Subsequently, as long as the clans didn't go overboard, he didn't bother to interfere. In any case, there are always corporations willing to settle for money. Hence, the clans grew increasingly arrogant.

Suddenly feeling bored, Mason got to his feet. However, he had only just stood up when he noticed the deserted workshop grow dim.

He raised his head and scanned his surroundings. Then, his face turned deathly pale instantaneously.

Figures clad in azure armor, whose faces Mason could not make out, had appeared around him. They wielded olden swords and looked as though they were an army of soldiers from ancient times.

Emblazoned across each of their breastplates was the Azure Wyvern symbol.

It's Horizon Group's Azure Wyvern Guards'.
