LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

Chapter 40: Don’t you hear me!

The weather was somewhat gloomy.

The Dirtmouth Funeral Home was shrouded in dark clouds.

At this moment, Jun Chester, dressed in a black suit and wearing a white flower on his collar, stood solemnly in front of Wilfrid Chester’s body.

His mood was extremely complicated.

Although his father’s death marked the end of it all, he still felt an inexplicable sadness.

During his lifetime, Wilfrid Chester never gave Jun Chester a shred of fatherly love!

Now that he was dead!

Did Jun Chester truly have no regrets?

In this world…

Who doesn’t want a complete family with both parents?

Alas!

In his last years, Wilfrid Chester took the woman who originally belonged to Jun Chester as his own!

Although there were many misunderstandings in this matter!

But in the end, it became Jun Chester’s emotional knot!

The funeral home was crowded with people.

Those who came to attend the funeral were waiting to bow in tribute to Wilfrid Chester.

But Jun Chester remained standing there.

No one dared to approach and remind him.

The eyes of the Chester family members, except for Bella, were sharp as knives when they looked at Jun Chester.

To the other guests present, this scene was full of confusion.

Wasn’t Jun Chester wanted?

How could he appear here?

The big shots from all sides seemed to have a lot on their minds.

All were quietly watching the changes.

It was at this moment that a commotion came from outside the door.

Everyone looked over and saw a tall, slender young man stepping outof a luxurious car. He was dressed in a tailored suit, exuding an aura of elegance and nobility.

Following the young man were a man and a woman. The woman, around the same age as the young man, had blonde hair and blue eyes, a beautiful face, and a tall and slender figure. She looked like an angel walking among humans. The man was middle-aged with black hair and a pale complexion, his expression cold and intimidating.

As the crowd saw the woman’s face clearly, they couldn’t help but gasp in surprise. “Is that… Princess Alice of Cyand?” they wondered. “And who is this young man? Why has he come to this event wearing a red formal suit?”

“Look! The man behind him is none other than the champion of the last World Martial Arts Tournament, Jack Denial!”

The crowd’s eyes widened in astonishment. But just as they were reeling from the shock, a line of luxury vehicles slowly came to a halt behind the limousine. One by one, important political figures from various countries emerged from the cars.

Surprisingly, they all followed the young man in the red suit. The scene caused a stir among the onlookers.

“Is that Mr. Karl, the Speaker of Orchids?” someone asked. “And Mr. Hunt of Maple?” “And Hobson of Cyand?”

“Who is this young man in the red suit? How powerful is his background? So many world-class dignitaries are following him!”

“He must be the mortal enemy of the Chester family. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have appeared in such a domineering manner.”

“The Chester family’s business is spread across the world. Now that they’ve fallen, everyone wants revenge!”Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

The young man in the red suit was David Chester. Many of the guests present had never seen him before. However, as David Chester walked by, people stepped aside to make way for him.

The group of people behind David Chester was truly astonishing, especially Princess Alice – the beloved daughter of Cyand’s minister. At this moment, she was following David Chester as if she were a mere backdrop.

Many wealthy business tycoons were present, and their emotions were mixed upon witnessing this scene. They knew their piece of the cake might be snatched away by this formidable young man in red.

Under the scrutiny of everyone, David Chester entered the funeral hall and stopped about 30 meters from Jun Chester. Bella, the widow of Wilfrid Chester in name, stood next to Wilfrid’s body and couldn’t help but widen her eyes when she saw David Chester in his red suit.

She had expected him to cause trouble, but she couldn’t have imagined that he would bring such a formidable entourage. The daughter of Cyand’s minister stood behind him, along with powerful figures from all over the world – some of whom had even graced the cover of Time magazine.

Silence – a silence like death – enveloped the hall. The core members of the Chester family who had barely made it out of the special service bureau brightened up at the sight of David Chester, as if they had found their savior.

Compared to David Chester, no matter how arrogant Jun Chester was, he was nothing but an insignificant insect.

With a cold expression, David Chester looked at Jun Chester’s back and called out to him. “My dear brother, I heard that it was you who killed this old man. Is that true?”

The crowd erupted in shock. In an instant, they all realized that this young man was Wilfrid Chester’s son. All eyes turned to Jun Chester and David Chester.

Jun Chester looked back at David Chester, a cold glint in his eyes. However, when he saw the middle-aged man behind David, his gaze faltered slightly. Jack Denial!

Seven years ago, Jack Denial had appeared in Dirtmouth alongside the Twelve Lords of Cinder Chapel. However, he hadn’t dared to participate in the battle against the Lords, so he had survived.

Today, he appeared behind David Chester. It was undeniable that David Chester had joined Cinder Chapel. Most importantly, Jun Chester had always suspected who had provided the information about his return to Dirtmouth to Cinder Chapel.

Now it seemed that Jack Denial was a likely candidate. However, considering Jack Denial’s submissive demeanor in front of David Chester, it was possible that David Chester was the real traitor back then.

That year, a single battle had changed everything! His wife, Lyvia, was accidentally injured and fell into a coma that lasted for seven years. Even the lives of the Twelve Lords of Cinder Chapel were not enough to compensate for the pain they had suffered. If the incident was indeed related to David Chester… then… he would have no reason to exist!

With this thought in mind, Jun Chester ignored David Chester and looked at Jack Denial. He spoke dispassionately, “You, come here. I have a question for you.”

Jack Denial looked at Jun Chester with an unexpectedly disdainful gaze. “Jun Chester, long time no see!”

Seven years had passed since Jack Denial last saw Jun Chester, and he wasn’t surprised at all. In his eyes, Jun Chester, imprisoned in the frozen Illusory Hall by Cinder Chapel for seven years, had become a dog for Cinder Chapel.

Now, Jack Denial held an extraordinary position within Cinder Chapel. Naturally, Jun Chester was nothing compared to him. However, before Jack Denial came, he had told David Chester that today, Jun Chester’s life was in David’s hands. He wanted David to beat Jun Chester half to death first before making his move.

In the end, as long as Jun Chester didn’t die, everything would be fine, since he was now Cinder Chapel’s dog!

However, in the next moment, Jack Denial suddenly widened his eyes. He only saw Jun Chester’s hand tremble slightly. Before he could even see Jun Chester’s movements clearly, Jack Denial felt a sharp pain in his knee. Immediately after, his leg went limp as if it were a noodle, and he fell to the ground on one knee.

Jun Chester spoke coldly, “I told you to come here. Didn’t you hear me?”

The entire hall was once again in an uproar! The champion of the World Martial Arts Tournament, Jack Denial, had fallen to his knees. What… what had happened?

David Chester’s face changed dramatically. While others hadn’t seen it clearly, he had. Jack Denial had fallen to his knee because of Jun Chester. Jack Denial was his master!

Now, they had just met Jun Chester, and Jack Denial was already on his knees? Although his own strength had surpassed his master’s, Jun Chester had so easily defeated Jack Denial right in front of him! Could it be… that Jun Chester had truly broken through to that legendary realm?
