Chapter 1985


    A Small Favor


    Nicole subconsciously nced back, just in time to meet Grant''s gaze.


    In the next second, Grant looked away like he did not mean to look over.


    Grant hung up the phone and came over.


    His expression did not change. He just sat in his ce and put down the phone.


    Floyd waved his hand. “Come on, another round!”


    It was rare that Floyd was so happy.


    Grant refused. "Dad, Aida said that she has something on at thest minute and doesn’t have time to


    pick Levi up. We''ll just let him eat at school."


    Floyd was stunned. "How could you?


    School food isn''t nutritious! Haven’t you seen the recent news that says that all the ingredients they


    used were bad? Are you dumb, or are you his evil stepfather to let your son suffer like this?!"


    Grant calmly lowered his head and shuffled the cards.


    "Anyway, I''m not going."


    Floyd threw down his cards and red at Grant angrily.


    ''Then I’ll go!"


    After saying that, Floyd yelled at the butler to prepare the car, saying that he wanted to go to Levi''s


    school to pick him up in person.


    They were missing a yer, so they could not y anymore.


    yton nced meaningfully at Grant, and Grant nced at Nicole lightly.


    "You can pay for what I lost earlier since your husband won.”


    Nicole''s eyes widened. "Big Brother! I also lost a lot!"


    Grant raised his eyebrows. "Well, your sister -inw has been very strict with me recently."


    Nicole was speechless.


    She stood up and ran away without saying a word as she thought, Is he still my big brother?!''


    yton lowered his head andughed as he sorted out the cards slowly.


    "Big Brother, do you have something to say to me?"


    Grant gave him a deep look.


    "Don''t you know that your military base in


    South Africa was bombed?''


    yton smiled. "I''m aware. Someone informed me just now over the phone.”


    Grant pursed his lips and narrowed his eyes.


    Such a big thing was enough to cause amotion, yet yton looked like he was not bothered and

    even nned to continue ying cards.


    Grant was puzzled.


    "Is this your n?”


    yton shook his head. "No, I’m guessing it''s Tyler''s doing. They only bombed an armory, but there''s


    no ammunition inside. Those are all empty shells, >f%?PLT; there are only a few casualties."


    This showed that Tyler was still afraid of yton and only wanted to give yton a warning and scare


    him.


    Tyler did not want yton to be so arrogant.


    Grant stared at yton unblinkingly. "It’s so sudden. Is he nning to make the next move? Or, he


    didn''t expect that armory to be empty..."


    Finally, yton raised his dark eyes and looked at Grant with a faint and gentle smile on his face.


    yton was graceful as he shuffled the cards and put them aside. His shirt sleeves were slightly rolled


    up, revealing his fair wrist, and his veins were clearly visible.


    No one could see through what yton was thinking.


    "Big Brother, I promised Mr. Jensen that I would give the base to him with no hups. As for the


    armory, it''s just a location. Tyler can have it if he wants it. Anyway, I''ve already transferred the goods


    and personnel. This world is so big, so how could he possibly find where I hid them?’


    yton''s voice was slightly cold and rxed. Such a huge event happened with a snap of his finger.


    Grant was a little stunned, and his expression was gloomy.


    After a long time, Grant smiled lightly. His voice was deep and cold.


    "Mr. Jensen just got the news and wanted to ask if you need help."


    The corners of yton''s mouth twitched as he thought, ''Help?''


    yton did not respond.


    He just looked up at Grant.


    "Big Brother, this batch of weapons isn''t a small amount. I started to transfer them as early as half a


    month ago and have the intention to hand them over to the government, including the technical


    personnel of my research base. They are the most advanced researchers in the world that are hard to


    yton smiled lightly and hinted that he wanted to strike a deal.


    Grant pursed his lips and looked at yton.


    yton paused.


    "Third Brother''s worries are justified. If Tyler stays in the country, it''s dangerous for us to leave the


    house. I want to set up a trap and kick him out. Otherwise, I really can''t let Nicole leave the house with


    ease. Big Brother, you don''t want to keep worrying about her safety too, right?”


    Grant''s expression softened. "What do you want to do?"


    yton looked at Grant seriously and smiled.


    As long as they shared the same interests, everyone would move in the same direction.


    The Stanton family''s business was big and had close contact with the higher-ups.


    However, yton did not mind it. He was willing to exin his affairs to Grant patiently. Even without


    their help, yton could reassure the Stanton family that he was capable of protecting Nicole and even


    the entire Stanton family.


    Floyd went to pick Levi up and brought him back to the Stanton Mansion for dinner. On the way, he


    heard from Levi that Aida was on a business trip today, so Levi was supposed to follow Grant back to


    the mansion for dinner.


    That meant it was all nned.


    It was not ast-minute decision.


    Floyd was yed by his eldest son.


    He was furious when he found out that Grant dared to boss him around.


    Grant was really something.


    Floyd was holding Levi''s little hand and could not show his anger. However, the more he thought about


    it, the more upset he was.


    As soon as they entered, Kai came out of the kitchen wearing an apron and looked at them with a


    smile.


    Dad and Leaf, you’re back! It''s almost time for dinner. Mr. Anderson cooked all this himself!"


    Floyd gave him a disapproving nce. " You’re so useless.”


    Kai was speechless.


    Levi liked Kai very much, so he ran over to hug Kai''s leg and raised his head, shyly reaching out for a


    hug.


    Kai raised his hand and gently kissed Levi on the cheek.


    "Good boy! Let Uncle K cook dinner first. Lil Chatty is ying games with Tigger, so you should go join


    them!"


    Levi nodded shyly and went to look for Chatty.


    Kai looked at Floyd seriously.


    "Dad, could you please show me some respect in front of the kids in the future?


    Otherwise, they won''t think that I''m cool!"


    Floyd rolled his eyes. "Go away! Call those people over for dinner. Otherwise, they can all starve to


    death for all I care!”


    When Kai heard this, he knew that Floyd''s anger was not aimed at him, so he happily hummed a tune


    and turned back to the kitchen.


    Nicole changed her clothes and went downstairs. She saw that yton and Grant finished chatting and


    were walking over leisurely.


    Lying on the window sill, she nced at them, clicked her tongue, and shook her head.


    "The more I look at him, the more handsome he is!"


    Julie passed by. When she heard Nicole''s words, she hurried over.


    "Who?” "Big Brother, of course!"


    Nicole touched her nose to hide her embarrassment.


    Julie looked at Nicole as if she was saying," Keep pretending then!"


    Halfway through the meal, everyone heard a car engine outside.


    Mr. Anderson nced at the surveince camera and was puzzled.


    "Chairman, it''s the Lindstroms."


    Floyd frowned. "We''ve never had anything to do with the Lindstrom family. What are they doing here?”


    Grant paused for a second, then looked at yton. He then turned back as if nothing had happened.


    Nicole noticed this and immediately understood what was going on.


    The Lindstroms must be here because Samuel was trapped in South Africa.


    Nicole looked up at yton.


    "Are they here to see you?"
