At this moment, Jasmine and Stephen were ying with Nora outside when she received a phone call.
“Ah?” Jasmine eximed in surprise. “L? What’s going on?”
“No, you’re not L! Who are you?”
Crosby chuckled bitterly. “I’m Crosby from Great Joy, and I want to turn myself in!”
L took the phone and said, “Okay,e to the mine in Longling Town with more people and bring Crosby back.”
“What?!” This time Jasmine recognized L’s voice and was shocked.
What was happening? She was ying with his daughter while he caught a group of Great Joy Corporation fugitives and brought them over?
She couldn’t believe it – she got credit for doing nothing but watching L’s child y while he aplished such a big thing.
“What? You don’t want? Then I’ll contact Zion,” L said with a frown.
“No! No! I want!” Jasmine quickly replied.
“I’ll take people over there,” Jasmine shouted hastily.
After hanging up the phone, her face was filled with joy.
“Jasmine, what’s going on?” Stephen raised an eyebrow and asked.
Jasmine smiled and said, “Nothing much. L captured one of the key leaders of Great Joy, Crosby. He asked me to go and take the people! This is a great achievement!”
Great Joy Corporation was destroyed, Chairman Diego and seven major leaders under him were killed on the spot. Most of the gang members were arrested, and a few were still on the run!
Among the fugitives, the biggest catch was Crosby.
It was easy to imagine the credit Jasmine would receive for bringing back Crosby. It was possible her military rank would be directly promoted.
Unexpectedly, she didn’t do anything today except help L take care of the child, and such a huge opportunity fell into herp.
“What? Is L that amazing? Jasmine, you’re benefiting from my glory,” Stephen teased.
At the same time, he admired L even more in his heart.
During the mission, it was L who eliminated four powerful foreign enemies, ensuring the sessfulpletion of the mission.
He couldn’t imagine what would have happened if L hadn’t been there. Stephen and the other warriors apanying him would likely have beenpletely defeated.
Because of that mission, Stephen also received a second-ss merit.
This time, even his cousin, Jasmine, benefited from L’s glory.
It seemed that in the future, he must spend more time with L!
Upon hearing this, Jasmine pouted and said, “Benefiting from your glory? You, a grown man, what glory do you have? Clearly, it’s because everyone loves me and flowers bloom when I appear. L was attracted by my charm.”
Stephen coughed a few times and said, “Okay…”
However, Nora, who was standing next to them, couldn’t stand it.
With a serious expression on her face, she said, “Auntie, that’s not true! Daddy only likes my mom, Miranda! Hmph!”
As she finished speaking, Stephen made an “uh” sound and then pointed at his cousin,ughing heartily.
Jasmine looked embarrassed, feeling her cheeks getting hot. “Uh… I was just joking.”
After saying that, she ran away as if fleeing, quickly gathering people to meet the arrival.N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.
On that day, the wanted fugitives from Great Joy Corporation, including Crosby, shed with Jarrett, the owner of a jade mine in Laenteglos Town. During the confrontation, Jarrett and one of his assistants were identally killed, and several “employees” under Jarrett were injured.
Then, they surrendered to Jasmine, the team leader of the police department in Oswesh City!
Due to the murder case at Jarrett’s jade mine, the mining operation was temporarily suspended, and the area was sealed off by relevant authorities.
…
On the other side, Ednd Station!
An old man with white beard walked out, and at that moment, themunicator he carried rang.
The old man was one of the elders of the reclusive Wood family, Marvin Wood.
At the request of the family head, Trace, he came to Ednd to meet L and “exin” some things.
However, before setting off, Trace had a private conversation with him and asked him to bring something along.
“Mr. Wood!” After answering the call, Marvin said in a deep voice.
“Uncle Marvin, have you arrived?”
As a senior elder, Marvin’s strength had reached the level ofte Golden Core, and his seniority was high. He was the uncle of the family head, Trace.
Marvin stroked his white beard and found a ce where no one was around before saying, “I’ve arrived! I just got off the train.”
“Okay! Don’t forget to give that thing to L,” Trace instructed.
“Are you sure? That thing could be a great opportunity!” Marvin asked, confirming the situation.
“A great opportunity? Haha, our family is not capable of handling that thing. It’s more likely to bring catastrophic consequences! So, let’s give it to L,” Trace’s voice carried a hint of solemnity.
“Two elders of our family have died because of L. Indeed, we dare not easily move against him now, but how can I not feel resentful in my heart? If L truly has a powerful background and the strength to handle this opportunity, then so be it. Let it be our family’s apology for befriending him. But if he doesn’t have that kind of power behind him… hmph!” Trace’s voice turned cold. “Then let the disaster caused by this thing destroy him. It will be equivalent to avenging Verdant Pine and his brother!”
“In short, this thing is a hot potato for our family. It’s useless to us and will only bring disaster,” Marvin stroked his beard and agreed, “You’re absolutely right.”
That night, at Emerald Green Estates, after L left Ednd with Nora, the vi felt empty with only Miranda remaining. Therefore, Emmanuel and Cara came over to apany their daughter for a few days.
“Mom and Dad, how is my cooking?” The goddess CEO’s eyes shimmered with anticipation and nervousness as she eagerly asked.
Emmanuel and Cara looked at their daughter with strange expressions, feeling a bit sentimental. They never would have imagined that Miranda, who had always been indifferent to domestic matters, would suddenly be so enthusiastic about cooking. It was something they wouldn’t have dared to imagine before.
Seeing their daughter’s expectant and excited expression, how could the couple not know who she was doing it for? But Emmanuel and Cara didn’t mind.
Because from their daughter, they could feel that sweet sense of happiness, the joy she found in cooking. This was something Cara could understand and empathize with even more. When she was deeply in love with Emmanuel, cooking for her man was also a sweet and happy experience.
However, they secretly thought to themselves, “Daughter, even if you want to study cooking, don’t use your old dad and mom as guinea pigs, okay? Isn’t that setting us up?”
