NovelApexThe Trap The Trap The conversation ended there, with Sierra reminding Jonathan several times not to tell Mateo anything When Dickson left today, he said he would adjust his attitude and still treat Mateo like an older brother in the future. He didn't want them to end up not even being friends.
With things said that way, Sierra could only agree.
This was something she couldn't help with at all.
Since Sierra had spoken, Jonathan naturally nodded.
He hadn't been hlong when he suddenly got a phone call.
It was from overseas. Whatever was said on the other end made Jonathan's expression change instantly.
"Victor's business?" Sierra guessed.
Jonathan nodded. "Yeah." He gave a cold laugh. “Victor just sent word claiming I'm his son." Previously, Jonathan had met with several of Victor's sons, and they had managed to strike a cooperation deal.
But now, with this news spreading, their collaboration was on the verge of falling apart.
"Here I was thinking he was just stupid. Turns out, he's settingup," Jonathan said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNo wonder Victor insisted on saying he was his son a perfect move to divert trouble onto Jonathan.
"So what now?" Sierra frowned. Jonathan and Victor had made a bet for one month, and half that thad already passed.
Everything had been going smoothly. In the past two weeks, Victor's sons had already managed to eat away at quite a bit of his power.
But now, with Victor suddenly releasing this news, Jonathan's partnership with them might collapse.
"I'll handle it." Jonathan kissed Sierra. "Don't worry about this. Just get srest." He had originally planned to chearly to spend twith her, but now he had to deal with this mess first.
Sierra knew she couldn't help anyway. All she could do was take care of herself.
Over the next two days, Jonathan left early and chlate. Fortunately, his efforts paid off.
One of the Victor family's largest ammunition depots was completely wiped out-courtesy of Jonathan. with White's cooperation, T Thu 14 The Trap Jonathan had rescued White's sister, and when White heard the news, he naturally offered a ficting reward.
This depot wasn't just another supply line like the one destroyed before. This one dealt a major blow to Victor's family.
When Victor got the news, he was furious.
He knew exactly who was responsible, but instead of blarning Jonathan, he actually felt proud this sort of his certainly had guts.
The one he blamed was White.
He had been too soft-hearted.
The moment White was captured, he should have killed him. But he spared him Clearly, this son hadn't been worth saving.
With the depot destroyed, Victor was restless. He had originally planned to return to the country, but remembering his bet with Jonathan, he forced himself to stay put.
If he left first, it would be as good as admitting defeat.
Jonathan was already hard to tame. If Victor lost this round, Jonathan would only becmore arrogant.
A disobedient son just needed a good lesson — like training a hawk. Endure long enough, and you'd end up with the fiercest beast, the most capable helper.
That was exactly how Victor saw Jonathan now. There would be a winner between them finally.
Once he calmed down, Victor made a long phone call before hanging up.
The next day was the weekend. Jonathan invited Mateo, Stone, and the others over, and Sierra called a few seniors and Dickson as well.
When he saw Dickson, Mateo snorted. "Well, look who had ttoday?" His tone dripped with sarcasm, obvious to everyone. Draven shot him a sideways glance.
Sierra heard it too and looked at Mateo. She could tell he was angry.
Dickson gave Mateo an awkward smile and quickly conceded. "Mateo, I was wrong." "Hmph." Mateo still snorted, but his expression softened.
He had always been generous, and soon enough, he let it go.
Even though he wasn't overly sensitive, he could tell that Dickson wasn't treating him quite the sas before.
No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure out why, so he decided to ask Dickson directly.
2/8 The Trap "What did I do to you?" "Huh?" Dickson was startled.
"You've knownlong enough to know what kind of guy I am. I don't play games or pretend. I say what! mean. So did I do something to offend you?" Because of what had happened with Maddox, Mateo valued his friends a lot now.
"No!" Dickson quickly shook his head.
"Mateo, you've always been good to me. How could you have offended me?"
