Living With My Lady Boss

Wilbur turned around and saw that Liam, standing nearby, was already dumbfounded, his expression filled with horror.

"They... They actually sent someone to attack at night! Trevor, how did you know Dubond would send someone?"

Hearing this, Wilbur's lips curled into a slight smile as he replied, "Lord Liam, I once heard in a tavern about the Warren family's leader, Dubond. People say that Dubond is ruthless and never leaves anyone a chance. Although Eugene retreated, I was certain he would still send someone else. And sure enough, he sent Fred."

"Yes, that's true. Dubond is indeed a cruel man." Liam nodded, then suddenly looked puzzled and said, "But wait, if Dubond was going to send someone, he should have sent Eugene and Fred together. Why did only Fred come, and not Eugene?"

"I don't know, but don't worry, Lord Liam. You can all rest well for the next few days. Leave the matters of the Warren and Andrew families to me."

"And what about you?"

"I will take this time to cultivate. If Eugene or Fred comes at night, I'll deal with them."

Liam was very pleased with Wilbur's words and immediately invited him inside. They all sat down for a meal, and throughout the dinner, Liam repeatedly toasted Wilbur, who returned the gesture a few times.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, everyone retired to their rooms to rest. Liam arranged a room for Wilbur, who then went to his quarters to meditate.

Meanwhile, Fred had returned to the Warren family estate. Kneeling on both knees in the grand hall, Fred reported, "Lord Dubond, the Robert family indeed has a new dragon clan cultivator with formidable strength. When I fought him, I used the talisman invisibility technique throughout the battle, but even so, I couldn't get within ten steps of him."

"What?"

Dubond was shocked, exclaiming, "Fred, even with Layton, you could get within three steps. But now you can't get within ten steps of this new dragon clan cultivator? Are you sure he's that strong?"

"Not even ten, more like fifteen steps, Lord Dubond. I'm not lying. If you don't believe me, you can go test him yourself."

Dubond was also a talisman cultivator. Fred knew he was not a match for Wilbur and now understood why Eugene had fled. Thus, Fred could only tell the truth. If Dubond did not believe him, he could see for himself.

"Say no more."

Dubond cut Fred off, then stood up and paced the hall for a moment before saying, "Send someone to prepare a carriage immediately. I'm going to the Andrew family myself. This situation has gone beyond what Bruno and I anticipated. It seems we have no choice but to join forces again."noveldrama

"Yes, I'll take care of it right away."

Fred ordered the carriage to be prepared and waited outside the hall for about fifteen minutes before Dubond emerged. The two of them boarded the carriage and headed to the Andrew family estate.

The guards informed Bruno, the Andrew family head, of Dubond's arrival. Bruno's lips curled into a slight smile as he said, "Hmph. After Dubond drove Eugene away, I knew he would come to ask for my help. Go and bring them in and let them wait in the hall."

"Yes, my lord."
