Chapter 997: A Better Life than You Lot!
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Connor appeared in the McDonald family’s villa again, the McDonald family members were still the same as before. Everyone immediately started to mock him.

“Kid, what did you just say?”

After Harland heard Connor’s words, his expression was a little angry. He stood up and walked in front of Connor.

“I said that Maverick is not qualified to be my grandfather!” Connor repeated.

“I think you need to be taught a lesson!”

Harland rolled up his sleeves and was about to attack Connor.

As for the others present, it was as if they did not see anything. Their expressions were very cold. They wanted Harland to throw Connor out of the villa as soon as possible.

“I’m giving you one last chance now. Are you going to leave or not?”

Harland asked Connor with his eyes wide open.

Connor was no longer the same as before. Therefore, when he was facing Harland’s threat, his expression was still very calm, without the slightest hint of nervousness.

“As long as you dare to touch me today, I will break your legs and hands and make you a real useless lout!” he declared.

“You little…How dare you threaten me? I want to see how capable you are today. How dare you say such a thing!”

Harland shouted at the top of his voice, then raised his right hand and was about to slap Connor’s face.

Connor stood on the spot without any intention of dodging.

“Stop!”

Just as Harland’s right hand was about to slap Connor’s face, a voice sounded.

Everyone turned their heads to look at the entrance of the villa and found that Connor’s uncle, Huxley, had returned.

The person Harland was most afraid of now was Huxley, so after hearing Huxley’s scolding, he stopped and whispered to Connor, “Consider yourself lucky today…”

When Connor heard this, he could not help but smile faintly. He secretly sighed in his heart and wondered who was the lucky one between the two of them.

Huxley quickly walked in front of Connor and pretended to be enthusiastic. He asked Connor with a fake smile, “Connor, when did you come back? I haven’t seen you for a few years and you’ve already grown so big. Why didn’t you tell me that you’re coming back?”

“Why should I tell you? I’m telling you so that you can prepare to deal with me in advance, right?”

Connor felt that Huxley’s feigned enthusiasm was extremely disgusting. Back then, Huxley was the one who planned for Connor to be chased out of the McDonald family. Among so many McDonald family members, Connor probably hated Huxley the most. Therefore, he did not hold anything back when he spoke to Huxley.

“Uh…”

Huxley did not expect Connor to be so direct. He was instantly stunned.

“Alright, stop pretending to be a good person to me. I know very well what kind of person you are!” Connor continued.

“Connor, what are you saying?”

Huxley’s expression was a little ugly as he frowned.

“Big brother, this is considered a nice thing to say. Just now, this brat actually said that he wanted to break my hands and legs. I feel that this brat might not have been able to survive outside and so came home to find trouble…” Harland said with his eyes wide open.

“Don’t worry, I have a better life than you lot!” Connor calmly replied to Harland.

“I can’t be bothered to talk nonsense with you. Get out of here, or I won’t be polite!” Harland shouted at Connor.

“This villa was bought by my father. I’m the real owner of this villa, so you should be the ones who get out, not me!” Connor retorted.

“Are you f * cking tired of living? If I don’t teach you a lesson today, you won’t even know who you are!”

Harland shouted and rushed towards Connor.

“What are you guys doing so early in the morning?”

But at this moment, an old man’s voice suddenly came from upstairs.

An old man walked down the stairs with a walking stick. Everyone fell silent when they saw the old man.

This old man was Maverick McDonald, Connor’s grandfather.

Connor subconsciously turned his head to look at Maverick. After not seeing him for so many years, Maverick seemed to have aged a lot.

“Dad, Connor is back! He came here to cause trouble…” Harland shouted at Maverick.

“Shut up!”

Maverick frowned and scolded.

Harland immediately shut his mouth.

Maverick slowly walked to Connor’s side and sized him up. He said coldly, “Since you’re back, sit down and eat first. We’ll talk about whatever you want after eating!”

Connor hesitated for a moment, but he didn’t hesitate as he sat on the chair.

The others also went to their seats and sat down.

After Maverick sat down, he glanced at the people in the room and asked lightly, “Why aren’t Bradley and Cecilia here?”

“Dad, Bradley was beaten up when he attended the Marcus family’s wedding yesterday. He only woke up at two in the morning last night. He probably won’t arrive until later…”

Huxley hurriedly explained.

Maverick’s favorite child was Bradley, so he shouted excitedly, “Who is so bold as to hit Bradley? Do they think so little of the McDonald family?!”

Huxley frowned and replied, “I don’t know the exact identity of the person. Bradley didn’t want to say anything. The Marcus family also sealed the news. It seems that the one who was injured wasn’t only Bradley, but also the Marcus family…”

The Marcus family had already kept everything private, so Bradley naturally did not have the courage to say what happened that day.

“Call Bradley now and tell him to hurry over. I want to know what’s going on!” Maverick said with a frown.

“He and Cecilia should be here soon!”

Huxley said in a low voice.

“Alright then!”

Maverick nodded lightly and didn’t say anything else.

Maverick and Huxley might not know that the person who beat Bradley up was actually sitting in front of them.

Connor didn’t say anything after hearing the conversation between these people. He just ate quietly.

Perhaps because of Connor’s existence, the others were not in the mood to eat. Only Connor ate with relish.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the dining room was extremely strange.

Even Maverick couldn’t help but look at Connor. He didn’t know why Connor had suddenly returned.
