Chapter 1227 Kill Someone For Me


    The news about the death of Elijah Pierce, the leader of Orcus, travelled fast.


    In Brimmopolis, Tristan Westwood, the Major General in the Navy, who recently retired, was feeling


    exasperated as he sat in his study.


    In fact, almost no one was aware that Elijah Pierce''s father was Tristan.


    Ever since they had a daughter, Tristan''s wife didn''t bear him another child. In the early days, every


    family was allowed to have only one child since the nation implemented the one-child policy.


    Besides, given that he was a prominent high-ranking officer in the Navy, he didn''t reveal to anyone


    that he had another child.


    Nevertheless, he had had an affair with another woman, who bore him a sonter. He was none


    other than Elijah Pierce.


    Because of his status in the Navy, he couldn''t officially recognize Elijah as his son.


    Despite that, he took care of Elijah behind the scenes.


    In fact, without Tristan''s help, Elijah wouldn''t have been enlisted in the Dragon Special Force, not to


    mention receiving intense training to be a martial arts master.


    Elijah would have never gotten to know the young masters from the prominent families in the city


    without his help.


    Elijah also couldn''t possibly establish Orcus, thergest mercenary army in the nation.


    In short, Elijah became a sessful and respected figure solely because his father had paved the


    way for him.


    Nheless, Tristan never thought that his son would die three days after his retirement.


    His heart crumbled into a thousand pieces when he heard the news.


    The Westwood family was a traditional prominent family. Besides, Tristan was even more old-school


    as he believed that having a son was of the utmost importance to the Westwood family.


    As such, Tristan had initially decided to recognize Elijah as his son after he retired. He had nned


    to ept Elijah as part of the Westwood family and select him as the family sessor even if


    others opposed it.


    Unfortunately, his son had died as soon as he retired!


    Tristan was exasperated; he smashed the rosewood desk and yelled ferociously, "Damn you,


    Nathan Cross! How dare you kill my son? I''ll make sure the Cross and the Smith family will have no


    children!"


    At that moment, someone knocked on the door twice.


    A gorgeous and slimdy, aged around twenty-seven, walked into the study slowly.

    She was Tristan''s daughter, Yvonne Westwood.


    Yvonne squatted down to pick up the things scattered across the floor and asked politely, "Dad,


    what''s wrong?"


    Tristan looked at his daughter coldly and said, "Didn''t you guys stop me from epting Elijah into


    the family? Didn''t you guys oppose my n to recognize him as my son and part of the Westwood


    family? Now, your wish came true. A b*****d named Nathan Cross from Channing has killed Elijah.


    From now on, the Westwood family belongs to you because no one will everpete with you


    again."


    After Tristan finished, Yvonne lowered her head and saidposedly, "Dad, you''re wrong. How can


    a woman like me inherit the legacy of the Westwood family? I opposed your n of bringing your


    younger brother back for the sake of protecting your reputation. Now that my younger brother


    passed away, I''ve fallen apart as much as you have."


    Nevertheless, Tristan said ndly, "Stop acting in front of me! I''ve lost all my hope since Elijah is


    dead. I only wish to do one thing now - Kill Nathan Cross to avenge your brother. You can take over


    the Westwood family once you kill that man!"


    Yvonne looked up at him and said, “Dad, don''t worry. I did some digging and found out that Nathan


    and his wife are merely recent entrepreneurs. Besides, they aren''t connected to any prominent


    bureaucrats. I''ll kill Nathan in these few days to avenge my brother."


    Tristan waved his hand dismissively. "Do it. I hope you canplete this task as soon as possible."


    Yvonne nodded in response and left the study.


    After returning to her room, she took a shower and put on a floral evening dress and delicate


    makeup.


    She then instructed her underling to get the car ready.


    Soon, she arrived at the vi of the Simon family. It was one of the ten prominent martial arts


    families of the nation.


    After Joseph Simon, the young master of the Simon family, invited Yvonne to his study, she asked


    straightforwardly, "Joseph, I''m here to ask you for a favor."


    Joseph was around twenty-seven years old and was slim and good-looking. However, Yvonne could


    tell that he was not a kind-hearted man judging from his evillooking eyes.


    Since Joseph was part of the Simon family, he practiced ancient martial arts and its lethal martial


    arts techniques since he was a child. As such, he was now regarded as the top martial arts master


    without parallel.


    Having been born into a prominent family, Joseph was almost a perfect man. Furthermore, he was


    also good-looking and was skilled in ancient martial arts. Nevertheless, he had an Achilles heel -


    overindulging in sex.


    After sizing Yvonne up, who looked gorgeous, he shot her a wry smile and said, "Ms. Westwood,


    how can I help you?"


    Yvonne replied calmly, "Please kill someone for me. His name is Nathan Cross. He''s a new


    entrepreneur from Channing."
