    Chapter 1351


    Upon hearing the news, Jean nced at Neera, who was apanying the triplets in drawing, and


    then quietly walked away.


    “What’s going on?” he asked.


    Colin replied, “The specific details are still unclear. My subordinates reported that Keith, the head of the


    Watson family, and Maurice, the head of the Laker family, had a secret meeting at the clubst night.


    They talked for about two hours before leaving. Upon returning, Maurice immediately called for a family


    meeting and dispatched some people. However, there has been no further action so far. But this


    situation is quite unfavorable for the Cox family.”


    Even though Maurice held the fourth elder seat, the Laker family was considered to be one of the


    strongest.


    If the Watson and Laker families were to join forces, it would spell trouble for the Cox family.


    Jean’s eyes narrowed slightly, annoyance lurking in his gaze.


    Recently, the news of these disputes had greatly affected Neera’s mood, and it really bothered him.


    “Keep an eye on it,” he ordered after a moment of silence.


    “Understood.” Colin epted the order and asked, “Should I take action?”


    After a brief moment of contemtion, Jean said, “There’s no need for now. If the Cox family is still


    unaware, we’ll send a message when necessary. Remember, stick to the old rules. Don’t reveal your


    identity.”


    “I understand.”


    After a period of rest and recuperation, Avery’s health had significantly improved.


    However, the situation of the Cox family was not so good as they gradually entered into an unfavorable


    predicament.


    That day, just after Avery had finished his breakfast, he saw Ronald appear in a hurry, his face grave,


    clearly bearing some bad news.


    “What happened?” Avery asked, a frown creasing his brow.

    First, Ronald wiped the sweat from his brow, took a deep breath, and then hurriedly began to report,


    “Mr. Cox, we have a problem. Hector Zimmerman sent a message saying that the Zimmerman family’s


    headquarters was attackedst night. The attackers had strength in numbers, and they came in full


    force. In the end, they surrounded the Zimmerman family. They almost wiped out the Zimmerman


    family. If it weren’t for our death guards secretly protecting them, I’m afraid they would have been


    completely annihted!”


    Hector Zimmerman was the head of the Zimmerman family, and the Zimmerman family was an


    affiliated force of the Cox family, loyal to the Cox family for many years.


    In the operation, the Zimmerman family was the most powerful ally of the Cox family, a force not to be


    underestimated. The Quigley family and the Hoffman family were severely hit by the Zimmerman


    family.


    Upon hearing this news, Avery was taken aback, his expression suddenly turning somber. “Who was


    behind the surprise attack?”


    As Ronald spoke, cold sweat trickled down his face, and his heart was filled with unease. “It’s unclear.


    The Zimmerman family didn’t manage to capture anyone. The other side was extremely well-prepared,


    and the Zimmerman family suffered significant losses. Even though our death guards stepped in, they


    could only barely


    resist due to the overwhelming disparity in


    Hector pulled out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his forehead, raising his concerns with a


    heavy rt. “Mr. Cox, who do you think is behind this? Could it be the work of the Watson family? The


    Quigley and Hoffman families don’t seem to have this capability…”


    Avery’s expression became even more solemn, his eyes filled with gathering storm clouds.


    “The Quigley family and the Hoffman family don’t have the capability, and the Watson family alsocks


    strength,” Jean said in denial, his tone as cold as the winter wind in the night. “Right now, many of the


    Watson family’s forces are tied up by our people. It’s impossible for them to send out this many people


    again to attack the Zimmerman family. Besides, the Zimmerman family is not weak. To be able to bring


    them down to this level, the Watson family simply doesn’t have the capability.”


    At that moment, Ronald was utterly confused, “If not the Watson family, then who could it be?”


    A glint of cold light shed through Avery’s eyes. “There’s only one possibility. Another power has


    intervened, siding with the Watson family.”


    Ronald felt a tightening in his chest, sensing the situation was bing increasinglyplicated. “I’ll


    start investigating right away.”


    However, the investigation yielded no results.


    In the afternoon, Ronald reappeared before Avery. With a worried look on his face, Ronald spoke in an


    apologetic tone, “Apologies, Mr. Cox, we couldn’t find any information about their identities. They’ve


    been very covert, erasing their own tracks. We don’t know where to start…”


    Avery’s brows were tightly knitted in worry.


    Just as he was about to say something, Violet suddenly barged in.


    “Satan! Look at this!” Violet held an opened envelope and a piece of paper densely filled with a string of


    characters.


    Avery took it and found it to be a list.


    The names on the list were not unfamiliar to him. They were all members of the Laker family.


    He scanned it once and suddenly thought of something, raising his head to ask Violet, “Where did this


    come from?”


    Violet still had a lollipop in her mouth, her cheek bulging on one side as she shook her head. “I’m not


    sure. I was bored, so I went fishing by theke. When I returned, I found this envelope at my doorstep.”


    There were no words on the envelope.


    In other words, the person who left the envelope deliberately concealed their identity, simply wanting to


    convey this particr message.


    Ronald also realized it, asking with a mix of doubt and belief, “Mr. Cox, could this list be the people we


    are currently investigating? Are they the ones whounched the surprise attack on the Zimmerman


    family?”


    “That’s a possibility,” Avery said after a moment of contemtion. At this critical juncture, presenting


    such a list, only this exnation makes the most sense.


    Ronald took the list from Avery and nced at it. Instantly, Ronald recognized the names and uttered,


    “Aren’t these people from the Laker family? Why would the Laker family attack the Zimmerman family?


    They’ve never had any dealings with the Zimmerman family.”


    Violet hopped onto the desk. sitting on the edge and swinging her legs leisurely. “Isn’t it obvious? If


    there’s no past
