Chapter 311 Why Not Join Forces?
Chapter 311 Why Not Join Forces?
The man called Eden Mccarthy was expressionless, his eyes slightly narrowed as he looked coldly at
several people, and only after a few seconds did he ask in a nonchalant manner, "Why can't it be me?
Who says that only you can come to this place and I can't?"
Dexter was speechless, and his face looked bad.
It was only then that Ruby remembered this man as an afterthought.
She couldn't really see him from a distance just now, she only thought him looked familiar, but when
she heard Dexter call his name, she instantly recalled.
The man was the same one she had met that day at the temple.
Was he here to offer his grandmother's condolences?
For a moment, there was a slight complication in her heart, Ruby pursed the corners of her lips and did
not say anything.
Seeing the change in her mood, Levi reached out and took her hand in his, squeezing it gently and
reassuring her.
At this moment, Haider questioned Eden with a sullen face, "What are you doing here? Cara's death
doesn't seem to have anything to do with your Mccarthy family, so what are you doing here?"
At these words, Eden's sullen and resolute face moved slightly, his eyes looked over harshly and said
coldly, "How do you know it has nothing to do with us?"
Dexter wrinkled his brow, "What do you mean by that?"
Eden, however, clearly did not intend to elaborate, "It has nothing to do with your Hussain family,
therefore, it is not your turn to cross-examine me, because you are not qualified."
Then, his words changed and his expression remained the same.
"The old lady changed her surname a long time ago and is no longer related to the Hussain family, so
what is your Hussain family doing here?"
He was so well-informed that he actually knew about Cara's change of surname. Dexter and Haider's
faces grew darker and darker, and they both muttered in their hearts about what kind of relationship
this Eden had with the old lady.
Eden didn't even care what they guessed or thought, instead he narrowed his eyes slightly and looked
at the scene.
"What? Is your Hussain family here to offer condolences, or to smash the scene? Bringing so many
people here, afraid that they won't know that your Hussain family has a big show?"
At this moment, Dexter gritted his teeth and said nonchalantly, ''Eden! I warn you, today we are here to
deal with our feud with this old woman, it has nothing to do with your Mccarthy family! So you'd better
not interfere, if you have to meddle, then our Hussain family will never give up! Don't blame our
Hussain family for being unkind if you make a scene and make the two families into enemies!"
At that, Eden looked like he had heard some funny joke, a calm and reserved demeanor had a hint of
mocking laughter.
"It is ridiculous, Dexter, the Mccarthy family and the Hussain family have always been at odds. Besides,
when has your Hussain family ever been kind? How did your Hussain family treat the old lady back
then, how did you force her to leave the Hussain family, and how did you pursue and kill her
afterwards? All this shit has been an open secret in the capital's high society for a long time, do I need
to say it to your face?"
At these words, Haider was instantly furious, and Dexter was so angry that his lungs were about to
explode.
They had thought of taking this opportunity to snatch the secret art from Ruby.
But unexpectedly, Eden would appear at this crucial moment and disrupt their plans!
At that moment, Dexter shot a glance around and came up with his plan.
But Eden did not give him the opportunity to do so, and continued to speak on his own.
"When I heard that the old lady was gone, I expected your Hussain family to come over like flies, so
before I came to offer my condolences, I specially brought some extra men with me, just in case, these
......"
He gestured to the men next to him, a chill covering his angular face.
"It's only part of it, outside the funeral home, there are quite a few more, if you don't believe me, you
might as well send your men out to scout around and see if what I said is true."
Since he dared to say so, he must have brought more people with him, and naturally the Hussain
family would not disbelieve him.
Haider did not expect him to be so well prepared and stomped his cane in anger.
"Eden, do you really want to be stop us? What exactly is your relationship with Cara? Is it worth helping
her like this? Besides, she's already a dead person! Even if you help her, how can she remember yourNôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
good deeds in the underworld? Even if you want to please someone, you should do it with a living
person!"
At this point, Dexter's eyes blinked and he simply resorted to tactics.
"How about this? Eden, the Mccarthy family and the Hussain family have always been at odds, this is a
good opportunity to renew our relationship! Since you have prepared your manpower in advance, you
should know what the Hussain family is here for. I think you are rushing to protect this old lady, but you
are actually doing it for her granddaughter, right? Your aim is most likely the same as ours, to take
away the Henderson family's ancient medical secret art from her, right?"
He finished tentatively, keeping his eyes fixed on Eden, letting out a shrewd light.
"If that's the case, then why don't we join forces?"
Eden asked, expressionless, "Join forces?"
Dexter thought he was moved and continued, ''Right! Since both the Mccarthy family and the Hussain
family want this Ancient Medicine Secret Art, we might as well take it from this woman together, I
promise you, as long as you don't stand in the way and let your people help us, I will definitely share
half of this Ancient Medicine Secret Art with your Mccarthy family when it comes to hand."
At this moment, Ruby suddenly opened her mouth with a cold smile, "Heh, you're really quite generous,
splitting half of it to the Mccarthy family. You are so shameless and have refreshed my perception of
your Hussain family's bottom line time and time again!"
At her mockery, Dexter's face paled.
But considering the current situation, he could only hold back and ignore her for the time being, instead
continuing to pull Eden in.
"Eden, what do you think of my proposal? If you don't believe me, I can still give you a written note
......"
However, before he could finish his words, he saw Eden sullenly rebuff him.
"I don't think that's a good proposal."
At these words, the faces of the three members of the Hussain family all changed.
Betty scolded in a sharp voice, "Eden, don't think that we are talking to you now because we are afraid
of you? We just don't want to make a big deal out of it, don’t go too far!"
"Don’t go too far?" Eden repeated, his eyebrows cold and stern, "In my opinion, this is something you
should say to yourselves, in the current situation, do you think you have the qualifications to negotiate
with me?"
