Chapter 505
Since she was unable to stand the man’s gaze any longer, Heather asked without mincing her words,
“Has Grandpa been here today?” She felt she was too unlucky—why would she run into this annoying
guy by mischance?
The golf course manager shook his head. “I didn’t see Old Master Langston today.”
Heather stared right into the depths of the golf course manager’s eyes. After a long time, she said
frostily, “You’re lying.”
Perhaps she shouldn’t expose his lies so directly, but Heather decided to take a gamble. The golf
course manager was obviously lying; if Robert had never been here, why hadn’t kee out after
going inside for such a long time? There must be a plot behind this.
Heather tried hard to recall if the Langston Family had offended anyely, but she couldn’t think of
anyone after racking her brains. Someone had to be plotting against the Langston Family, or such a
fishy thing wouldn’t have happened. Besides, she could feel Robert’s presence here. Heather was a
very sensitive person, and she believed in her sixth sense. As she clutched her cell phone tightly in her
hands, she regretted not calling the police. Now, it would probably be difficult for her to find an
opportunity to do so.
However, the manughed instead of blowing up when he heard how categorical Heather sounded.
“Old Master Langston has indeed been here, but he has left long ago. I’m just joking with you.”
As she looked at the man’s flippant expression, Heather replied in disgust, “Do you think that I was
born yesterday? Just admit it if Grandpa has been here. Why are you joking with me?” She had a
wrong impression that this man was still treating her like a kid. He also behaved in such a weird
manner at that time, so she just knew that he wasn’t a good person. Had she known it earlier, she
would’ve blown his cover directly in front of Robert. Even more so, she had a feeling that Robert’s
disappearance must have had something to do with the man before her eyes. Thus, she glowered at
the golf course manager and asked, “Where the hell is Grandpa?”
The golf course manager grinned before he burst outughing again. “Old Master Langston has
already left. Is there a misunderstanding between us?” However, hisugh seemed like a provocative
gesture in Heather’s eyes.
“Don’t brush me off with this. I’ll never let you off if something happens to Grandpa.” Heather
summoned up her strength as she nned to subdue this man directly. Even though there was a
feeling of disgust and a lingering childhood fear within her, she believed that she had no problem
tackling this man with her ability.
The smile on the golf course manager’s face finally vanished. “Calm down, Miss Langston. Old Master
Langston has really left this ce,” he said with an anxious expression; it seemed like he was afraid
that Heather would misunderstand him.
Heather didn’t believe him, though. Why would he have such a perverted look on his face at the
beginning if he was afraid of being misunderstood by me? she thought to herself. She took out her cell
phone right away, but to her great shock, she couldn’t get a cell phone reception at all. After looking at
her cell phone in disbelief, she looked at the man with her widened eyes full of anger. “What trick did
you pull? Why isn’t there a cell phone reception?” Unwilling to reconcile herself to this, she switched off
her cell phone and turned it back on, and her suspicions slowly became clear.
“Some mobile phone jammers have been installed in our golf course to serve our guests better—that
way, they can concentrate on ying golf,” the golf course manager hurriedly exined as he panicked
somewhat. Heather looked much more intimidating than she had been when she was a child, and it
frightened him thoroughly.
“That’s bullsh*t. There can’t be such a ce. Those who y golf here are either wealthy or influential.
What would happen when their cell phone signal is jammed? Can your golf course take responsibility
for the consequences?” Heather asked while pointing at the golf course manager. She firmly believed
that he was a bad guy right now, and she even suspected that Robert had been kidnapped.
“Our golf course introduced this new policy recently, and it’s been widely praised by our customers. Our
customers also understand this, so they typically have their matters arranged beforeing here. That
way, they won’t be kept from their private affairs,” the golf course manager exined to Heather.
However, Heather didn’t want to listen to this man’s nonsense anymore. She stepped up right away
and subdued him immediately. She twisted his arm and threatened, “Take me to see my Grandpa.”
The man screamed in pain before he begged with an imploring look. “Please, mydy—you’re breaking
my arm!” He never expected Heather to grab his hand with such tremendous strength. Before he could
get a clear glimpse of what was happening, Heather had already subdued him.
Heather was particrly good at Judo since she liked subduing an opponent in one move. She
tightened her grip on the manager, and he immediately screamed in pain. Then, she said fiercely, “How
dare you keep wasting your breath? Take me there!”
“Ouch! My arm is breaking! Both your Grandpa and brother are here, but I can’t take you to them.” The
golf course manager felt like he was on the brink of death, for Heather was torturing himpletely.
Instead of making it quick, she tightened her grip on him bit by bit—it was killing him slowly.
“Do you still want your arm? Take me there—I don’t want to repeat myself for the third time!” Heather
threatened as she kept on tightening her grip. He certainly deserved this even if she ended up breaking
his arm. I’ll level this ce if he dares to kidnap Grandpa, she thought to herself. The more she thought
about this, the angrier she felt.
Strangely enough, no one was seen in the golf course. Even though she hadn’t entered the area, it was
truly strange that there wasn’t anyone outside to receive any guests. Heather was worried about
Robert’s safety, and ke didn’t emerge after going inside. However, she didn’t know who would be so
audacious to do that.
“Okay, okay, I’ll bring you there. Be gentle.” The golf course manager took Heather inside at the risk of
being fired since he could no longer bear the pain. After a long walk, they finally came into sight of the
golf course. Immediately, Heather spotted Robert at a nce. At this moment, he was talking to a man
beside him whose face she couldn’t discern, whereas ke stood aside with an aggrieved look on his
face. In any case, Robert seemed to be safe.
Just then, Heather heard the golf course manager’s voice below her. “Can you let go of me now, my
Heather directly gave him a shove without caring whether he would fall or not. Then, she quickly went
up to Robert and shouted, “Are you all right, Grandpa?!”
Upon hearing Heather’s voice, everyone on the golf course who hadn’t noticed Heather at first had
their gazes drawn to her. Robert’s face fell at once when he saw her; when she finally came up to her,
he gave her a p across the face. “Who let youe over?”
Heather looked at Robert in disbelief. She was startled by how angry Robert was, for he had never
pped her before. The right side of her face swelled up after the p, whereas ke had a gloating
look. As she covered her pped cheek, she stared straight at Robert.
“I told you to stay in the study and reflect on your mistakes—how dare you sneak out? You’re getting
more and more unruly. Go back home!” Robert was seldom so rough, but he seemed particrly
abnormal today. Despite her tough character, Heather couldn’t ept such a contrast for a moment.
ke, who had been watching this scene gloatingly at one side, was also scolded by Robert. “What
are you waiting for? Hurry up and take your sister back!” The innocent ke got the me as Robert’s
eyebrows rose in anger.
“Okay.” ke approached Heather and silently tugged at her sleeve, signaling her to go back with him.
However, Heather knocked his hand off directly. She said with a frosty expression, “I’ll go back myself.
I’m sorry for interrupting you while you’re discussing something.” Then, she left without a backward

nce.
ke looked at Heather from behind before shooting a nce at Robert to ask him what to do. Then,
he heard Robert chiding angrily, “What are you waiting for? Just keep up with her!”
Upon hearing Robert’s words, ke went after Heather at once. Even though he was also scolded by
Robert, he felt as though he could die with no regrets—he’d lived long enough to see Robert giving
Heather a p. The more he thought of this, the more he felt that it was his lucky day, and he rejoiced
in secret. However, it didn’t ur to him that the identity of the person who was ying golf with Robert
on this day wasn’t simple, and Heather’s arrival had messed up Robert’s npletely.
Only after Heather left the golf course did the man beside Robertment meaningfully, “Your
granddaughter is very interesting.”
Upon hearing this, Robert turned pale at once. Meanwhile, the man’s mouth curved into a smile so
menacing that one wouldn’t dare to look squarely at it.
On the other hand, the golf course manager was still screaming in pain. Robert gave him a fierce re;
he had told him to stop Heather froming in, yet he didn’t expect that Heather would still barge in
anyway. “Let’s call it a day. I’m sorry for making a spectacle of myself in front of you, but my health
doesn’t allow me to exercise for a long time. I’ll be leaving first,” Robert said politely and respectfully as
he was a bit afraid of the man in front of him.
The man wasn’t old, and he exuded a noble air; he was like a proud emperor whom people could only
look up to. “I’ll personally pay you a visit tomorrow,” he said, stressing each word. “She must be at
home as well.” It was clear from the aggressive way he spoke that he wanted Heather to wee him
at home together with Robert.
Robert looked reluctantly at the man in front of him, but he had no choice other than to agree since he
couldn’t turn down the man. Facing this man put him under tremendous stress, and he was frustrated
at having to be so respectful to someone of a younger generation.
After Robert left, the man looked at him from behind with a wicked smile. Perhaps he would stay in
Bradfort City for a while longer.
Robert shook out his sleeves in anger when he walked past the golf course manager. He didn’t expect
the manager to be so useless; had he known it earlier, he would have looked for an excuse to have
ke go out and inform Heather. That way, the man wouldn’t have seen her.
He pulled a long face throughout his way home, for he was inwardly preupied with worries about
Heather and what might happen the next day. Heather wasn’t the most beautiful among his
grandchildren, but she resembled his younger sister the most. Should the younger generation really be
involved in the enmity between those of the older generation back then? What a sin this is! he
screamed inwardly.
The Langston Family lost a daughter back then, whereas the Moriarty Family lost its heir. Robert
thought that the matter was already over, but the Moriarty Family still refused to let the Langston Family
off even until now. Robert didn’t expect that the Moriarty Family woulde to him after so many
years, nor did he expect that the Moriarty Family had be so powerful that even the Langston
Family would find it difficult to deal with them. The problem was not only about business right now, for
Robert was worried that the tragedy might repeat itself. Had he known earlier that the Moriartys would
He even suspected that the Moriarty Family had been waiting for Heather’s return since they picked
her out of everyone else. He hoped more than anything else that his granddaughter would attain
happiness in life, so he couldn’t ruin it. However, he couldn’t sit by and watch as someone else
destroyed the business empire that the Langston Family had spent a century to establish.
