"He is Brock!"
"What?"
Hearing this name, Benedict trembled.
Kristin burst into tears, "Great, Brock is still alive. Dad, Brock is still alive!"
Benedict was also slightly delighted, but then a gloomy expression appeared on his face, "Brock has been unyielding since he was young. Now that he came back with such power, I'm afraid JL City will undergo a great change."
...
Brock came out of the hospital and directly took a taxi to the Padilla's.
Eight years had passed. The originally luxurious villa was now surrounded by weeds. Obviously, no one had visited this place in the past eight years.
And no one had come to mow the grass.
It looked very deserted.
Seeing this familiar scene, Brock clenched his hands tightly.
'Four Great Families, it's payback time. I will make you suffer for what you have done to my family!'
When Brock arrived at the main door, he surprisingly found that the door was open.
He couldn't help but feel puzzled. Had someone else paid a visit here as well?
Thinking of this, he wanted to see who dared to visit the Padilla's and resist the pressure of the Four Great Families. As soon as he got to the door, he heard the conversation coming from inside.
"Mr. Cordell, you know how big this villa is. Besides, all the buildings are intact. If you buy it, it would be a great deal."
"I naturally know that. I came here often back then. But I didn't expect that eight years later, I would still come back here."
The one who spoke was a man in his forties, but Brock felt somewhat familiar with his voice.
"That's right. Let me put it on the table. The villa is worth a billion. If you really want it, I'll give you a discount. You only need to pay 500 million."
"Richmond, you have asked too much. If you really want to sell this place, I will pay at most 50 million."
Cordell chuckled, but Brock was startled at hearing Richmond's name.
Richmond was his uncle!
He wanted to sell the place?
Brock's expression became cold, and bloodlust was revealed in his eyes.
Richmond looked slightly embarrassed. He tried to bargain again, "Mr. Cordell, this ... isn't appropriate. No matter what, this is the Padilla's villa."
"It was more than one billion back then. Now you only offer fifty million. This...."
"Cut the crap. I offered you this price because this used to be the Padilla's villa."
"If it was not, let alone 50 million, I wouldn't even pay ten million."
"That's my final offer. If you are willing to sell it, we'll sign a contract. If you don't, then find another buyer. Don't waste my time."
Richmond gritted his teeth and nodded heavily. "Alright!"
"Deal. We are friends and that's what friends do."
"You make the right choice." Cordell was obviously in a good mood. "But I need to make myself clear. I want the property certificate of this villa."
"Don't worry, Mr. Cordell. I've already had my people on it."
"Back then, the Padillas were all dead, including my only sister. My only nephew has been missing for eight years."
