Legend of Dragon Son-in-law-Chapter 726 - : It’s All the Toothpicks Fault_1

Chapter 726: Chapter 726: It’s All the Toothpick’s Fault_1

The Star of the Prosperous Age’s top-tier private room was spacious.

After all, the money was spent where it was due.

The service was faultless.

Although they had offended Brexton Jackson, Brexton always conducted his affairs openly and honorably.

Business was business.

Take the money, no shortchanging the job.

Sheldon Casey sat in the middle with Kathleen by his side, flanked by Moon Casey and Quandarius Ridge.

A strong old man stood behind Sheldon, full of vitality and spirit.

His mere presence.

Made the Ridge family bow their heads, too afraid to speak.

His aura was too strong.

Commanding without anger.

“Kathleen and I have been in the capital for too long and wanted to get out for a bit of relaxation,” Sheldon Casey lifted his glass, and Moon hurriedly poured wine for her father.

“Just so happens that Quandarius is pregnant. We heard that Moon City is not too bad… regretfully, the local customs are poor!”

After speaking, he didn’t wait for the Ridge family to lift their glasses and drank his own in one gulp.

“The vintage, three hundred thousand a bottle.” Sheldon waved a hand, “Let them have a taste.”

“Yes, Father!”

Although Moon was reluctant, he still picked up the wine bottle and walked over to the Ridge family members.

But on his face was contempt and disdain.

If it weren’t for the child in Quandarius’ belly, would they bother coming to this godforsaken place?

The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.

After all, women with extremely yin constitutions…

Were too rare.

The Casey family had searched for three years before finding Quandarius Ridge.

The most uncomfortable person was Moon Casey.

Despite the child not being his, he still had to pretend to care deeply for Quandarius.

To act as if he loved the child in her womb very much.

“Hiss…”

He took a deep breath to rid himself of his gloomy mood.

“Everyone, please enjoy your drink…”

“Thank you! Moon is such a good kid!”

“Indeed, so polite and cultured.”

“A face of wealth and nobility!”

The Ridge family members flattered him.

Meanwhile, they lifted their glasses, eager to taste what a wine worth hundreds of thousands tasted like.

When Moon reached Quella Radcliffe, his expression suddenly became much warmer.

“Miss Radcliffe, please have a drink.”

As he poured the wine, his eyes lingered on Quella’s body.

Moon had not expected such an elegant and sophisticated young lady to come from the Ridge family, which at first glance seemed contemptible.

Quella was beautiful, and her demeanor was exceptional.

Even Moon, who had been through countless romantic entanglements, felt his heart skip a beat.

But he knew how to control himself, knew the right tactics to use.

There was no woman he couldn’t win over with the right strategy.

After a smile, he completely hid the greed in his eyes.

“Waiter, why hasn’t the food arrived yet!”

Seeing Moon’s gaze, Julius Reed shouted loudly.

This shout did not seem significant but caused Moon’s hand to tremble, and the bottle slipped from his grasp.

With a flick from Julius’s hand, a toothpick flew out!

Clang!

The bottle exploded in mid-air!

The toothpick—

Went straight into Moon’s calf!

In the blink of an eye!

“Ah…”

Pain!

Thump!

Moon only felt his calf go numb…

He half-knelt before Quella.

Wine mixed with blood, drawing a sharp intake of breath from him!

“Yo! What are you doing, young master Shen!”

Julius quickly stood up, looking at the blood on Moon’s trousers.

“Does that hurt?”

He pressed down lightly.

“Ah… stop it!”

Moon clenched his teeth with a crackling sound!

The toothpick in his calf was being pressed further into the flesh by Julius!

Piercing the bone.

Pain!

Agonizing, unforgettable pain!

“Hiss…”

Even though Moon had practiced martial arts with the old man since he was young, the alcohol on the wound was still hard to bear.

“Master Casey, get up quickly!”

Julius hurriedly helped Moon to his feet.

At the same time, another toothpick in his hand was thrust vertically into the carpet.

Point upright.

This ravenous toothpick bared its fangs.

Thirsty for the knee.

Julius appeared to slip on the spilled wine, sliding his foot!

He fell directly into Quella’s arms!

And Moon, who had not yet recovered, lost all strength in his body once more.

He knelt again!

“Uh…”

At that moment.

Moon felt his scalp tingle.

A chilling sensation shot up from his spine to the top of his head!

Shivering in pain as if all his strength had been sapped.

He couldn’t move a muscle!

“Moon!”

Sheldon, who thought his son had simply slipped and fallen, suddenly became anxious!

With Moon’s composure, he wouldn’t have been like this unless he had felt intense pain.

How could one wail in public?

“I’ll go check!”

The elder’s brows furrowed slightly as he leapt in front of Moon Casey.

“It’s all your fault!”

Before anyone else could speak, Knox Ridge finally seized the opportunity to vent at Julius Reed!

The opposing party was from the Casey Family!

Although she didn’t know which branch of the Caseys it was, they had come and taken care of a boss from Moon City right away.

Could a mere Julius Reed turn the tables?

She had been holding back for a long time!

Now that she was letting it all out, she felt incredibly relieved!

“Oh dear, child, are you alright?”

Knox Ridge, being the closest, quickly stood up and fawned, “It was my good-for-nothing son-in-law shouting nonsense that scared Master Casey.”

“Exactly! Julius Reed, you’re such a country bumpkin! No class at all! Did you need to shout like that?”

“If you’ve frightened Master Casey, selling your blood wouldn’t cover the compensation!”

“Such people truly bring shame to our Ridge Family! Get lost!”

Moon Casey was now someone the Ridge Family was eager to fawn over.

In stark contrast,

Julius Reed was revolting, unbearably stinky!

“Just get lost!”

Taking advantage of the momentum, Knox Ridge once again flexed her authority, pointing at Julius Reed, “Don’t embarrass us!”

“Mom…”

Quella Radcliffe hadn’t even started speaking when she was interrupted by Knox Ridge, “You shut your mouth!”

“I just need to step out for some air.”

Julius Reed smiled as he stood up and walked away.

He couldn’t wait to leave and avoid getting hurt by Christian Martinez later.

“I need some air too!”

Quella Radcliffe gave Knox Ridge a cold look before standing up and following him out.

This was within Julius Reed’s expectations, so he didn’t deliberately call for Quella Radcliffe.

Whoosh!

The moment he turned around, Julius Reed flicked out another toothpick!

Exact and on point.

It landed right in the center of Knox Ridge’s chair.

Point up…

“I told him to leave, Master Casey, are you alright?”

Knox Ridge thought of fawning over the Caseys, hoping to borrow some money from them later.

And perhaps not even have to pay it back.

Where else could one find such wealthy relatives?

“Move aside!”

The elder huffed coldly, startling Knox Ridge into stumbling back several steps to her own chair.

“What nonsense.”

She muttered to herself angrily as she sat down.

“Ouch…”

The moment she sat down!

Knox Ridge jerked as if electrocuted!

She felt numb all over!

Her mind went ‘buzz’ and then blank!

Her mouth agape.

She was frozen in place as if spellbound!

Frozen and unmoving.

Then,

Her complexion visibly turned purple.

Even,

Her hands shook uncontrollably.

Sweat appeared in an instant at her temples.

“What’s wrong, dear?”

Burl Radcliffe felt something was off.

But Knox Ridge merely stared wide-eyed, unable to utter a word.

As if struck by magic.

“Dear?”

Burl Radcliffe waved his hands in front of her.

No response!

“Don’t scare me!”

Burl Radcliffe nudged her slightly.

“Ah…”

That push,

added insult to injury for an already struggling family.

Originally, Knox Ridge was only in pain!

Numbed!

Frozen, without feeling too intense a pain!

But now!

She screamed in agony, and the screams continued unabated!

“Ah… ah…”

“Knox Ridge, are you mourning or what!”

Whish!

Barrett Ridge slapped the table and stood up!

He grabbed his cane and rushed over!

PS: I didn’t get home until five in the evening, too sleepy.

Really.

The third update on the sixth.

This is the third update.

The previous chapter was sent at eight o’clock in the evening, but review was delayed.

Causing it to not synchronize until now.

Lody isn’t taking the blame…

Not sure what time this chapter will get approved.

Tomorrow on the seventh,

is the first day I plan to burst forth…

Good night.

Everyone.
