Chapter 79: Chapter 066: Marriage Contract (3 more updates)_2 Chapter 79: Chapter 066: Marriage Contract (3 more updates)_2 She’s going to be in the second grade soon.
“I haven’t seen you before.
Who are you?” Lindsay blinked and asked, “I also attend Thompson County Primary School, in the sixth grade.”
Riley gave Lindsay a glance and ignored her.
Surprisingly, her cool deanor was a bit like Chloe.
“Sister, I don’t even know your na yet.”
Chloe ignored the question, signaling to Hans to keep moving forward.
Riley caught up with them, “Sister, can I co along with you?”
Such affectionate look didn’t really fit her non-smiling expression.
Lindsay: “…”
Well, every Jack has his Jill.

The table has been bought to the rental house.
Yvette was preparing dinner at ho.
Looking at their strange expressions, she asked, “What happened?
Why are you all looking like this?”
“Aunt, you don’t know how hard we tried to shake off that little brat.”
“Little brat?”
“The person we just t outside, it seems her na is Riley Downing.
Quite a peculiar surna.”
Riley Downing.
Yvette’s face changed slightly, “Why would soone from the Downing family be here, Chloe, did they do anything to you?”
Chloe shook her head.
“Aunt, do you know soone from the Downing family?”
Yvette forced a smile and shook her head: “I don’t.”
Noticing Yvette’s strange expression, Hans suspected sothing was off.
*
On the way ho.
Uncertainly, Yvette asked Chloe, “Chloe, are you sure no one from the Downing family ca?”
“They didn’t.”
“Since Thompson County is so close to Sheffield City, it wouldn’t be surprising if the Downing family really did co here.
Your mother was just concerned that soone from the Downing family might co looking for you.
You have a marriage contract with the Downing family, and even though we left the Stephens family, it was not cancelled.
I’m afraid that once you co of age, the Downing family will bring this up…”
At that ti, she would have to go back to Sheffield City.
What she did not know was that the Stephens family had already planned to bring her back.
Chloe said, “The Downing family does not want to marry in.”
Yvette was stunned, her eyes growing darker: “Chloe, they can’t see your worth, if they don’t want to marry you, that is their loss.”
Although the marriage between the two families is difficult to cancel, Yvette is still very worried that it may affect her daughter.
If her daughter really married into the Downing family without anyone to protect her, it would be even more difficult than being in the Stephens family.
Unlike other parents, who desperately wanted their daughters to marry into a large family like the Downing family, she wished for a simpler life for her daughter.
Marrying into a wealthy family, was too exhausting.
It was a life without dignity.
“Okay.”
About this arranged marriage, she didn’t much care.

Nightfall.
River East Village, Divinity Temple.
A mysterious team infiltrated the vicinity of the Divinity Temple.
They had no idea that he was hiding near the Divinity Temple in River East Village.
“Young Master Hawthorne, all mbers are in position.”
A low magnetic voice spread: “Take action.”
Bryson Taylor sensed that sothing was wrong.
Before the others could move, he rushed out from under their eyes.
He managed to increase the distance using poisons and ancient martial arts.
Outside of the village.
A girl hesitated for a mont, staring at the fresh footprints on the roadside.
They were new.
Soone had entered the village.
“ow.”
The black cat jumped out and slled the air.
Its ow beca louder.
“ow.”
“Get out of the way.”
The black cat withdrew its form dejectedly.
Just as it drew back, a shadow rushed out, coming face to face with the girl standing on the side of the road.
It was that disguised man from that day.
Chloe looked up at the man who had jumped into the air above her and saw his true face.
Bryson Taylor’s face changed, he suddenly descended, grabbed the girl, and a bug bit into the back of his hand.
It was about to crawl onto Chloe.
The bug suddenly beca restless.
Before Bryson could figure out what was going on, the bug, which he had fattened, turned into a piece of dry skin and floated down lightly.
His pupils slowly constricted.
The hand restraining the girl was lightly squeezed by a force.
It was rare for an ancient martial artist with talent like him to find an equal.
But what was happening in front of him overturned his understanding.
Before he could figure out how his poison bug died, he was grabbed and heavily thrown to the ground, and a crunching sound ca from his hand.
Broken.
Bryson Taylor’s face drastically changed.
“You…”
Chloe slled the offensive odor on him.
“Who sent you?”
The girl’s deanor was icy cold.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Bryson Taylor leaped from the ground and launched an attack at Chloe.
Chloe stepped backward, before kicking him and watching as he fell into the field, buried in deep mud.
Bryson Taylor wiped the mud off himself and glanced weakly at the girl standing on the side of the field.
The moonlight made her look even colder and more distant.
“Who the hell are you.”
“What’s the deal with those beasts.”
Chloe’s cold words lacked patience.
It seed that Bryson figured sothing out, his eyes widened a bit, “So that’s why those beasts were all heading in one direction.
It was you…”
A punch landed on his head and his ears rang.
Blood flowed from his ears and he was almost deaf.
Just as she was about to give him one more hit, she looked at the village and moved backward towards the outskirts.
Len Hawthorne’s n ca out only to see Bryson Taylor grunting in the field.
What happened?
Len Hawthorne stepped out slowly, eyes moving to Bryan struggling in the field and beyond into the darkness outside the village.
“I’m asking you, what happened?
I guess you won’t answer.”
“Damn,” Bryson spits out the mud in his mouth.
“The Taylor family sends their regards.”
Only then did Bryson revealed an angry look.
He tried to surge towards Len but was held back by the people on both sides.
“We hope you can give us a satisfactory answer about these strange researches.”
With a wave of his hand, Bryson was guided away.
“Young Master Hawthorne, who could it be that is so competent?”
“An expert.”
“Could it be soone from the Taylor family waiting here?”
Len Hawthorne smiled, his black eyes narrowing, “Hard to say.”
“Aren’t you going to chase?”
“It’s tireso,” Len Hawthorne flexed his arm and strolled out.
“If soone wants to co, they will eventually show up.”
Why bother expending energy to find soone?
Ethan sotis really admires him.
Ethan was really curious who the person just now was…
“Aren’t we going to report this?”
“If you want to get involved with those big families, go ahead and report it.”
“…”
He doesn’t have the ability, so it’s better to simply keep a low profile.
