Moon Warriors -
Chapter 1 First Gift
"Young master, we are here on behalf of the master to ask you to return and inherit the position head of the house."
A man wearing a suit and leather shoes said respectfully to a younger man who was in twenties. There are more than 20 ferocious men in black clothing standing behind the man in a suit, which didn't look like normal civilians.
The young man was in a rugged army uniform, he had a mature aura surrounding him and he didn't seem to act like his age. He glanced at the man in the suit and scoffed, "I'm not part of the Stone family anymore, not after they killed my parents."
"Does that old fogey think that I'm his dog? Does he think that I'm at his beck and call?"
The man in the suit was flustered, he quickly said, "Young master, the master regretted his actions. Please do..."
"Enough. I have no intention to return and that's what I've decided the moment I step out of that house." Andrew Stone interrupted the man in the suit without hesitation.
"Tell Ryan Stone that I'll destroy the Stone family if he ever bothers me again."
He didn't give them any face at all and just walked away.
The man in the suit took an extremely deep breath after Andrew disappeared from his sight. His sweat was seeping through his clothes. Only Andrew would dare to reject the offer to be the head of the Stone family, the most influential family in the River Capital.
A black car with a red flag was awaiting Andrew's arrival.
A strong man stood up straight when he saw Andrew. He saluted and exclaimed, "The deputy commander of the Seven League in Southland, Phoenix Morgan, salutes you, commander!"
Andrew was a legend in the army and was an important asset to the army! He joined the Northland army when he was 20 and had many achievements within the past 5 years. He founded the Seven League and it was known across every frontier. The Seven League was not only the enemy's nightmare, but they were also the sturdy metal wall protecting the H country!
He was a legend. Even Phoenix who was the deputy commander in Southland admired and respected him.
Andrew nodded and got into the car.
"Phoenix, it's been a long time. You're now the deputy commander."
"Commander, my life belongs to you no matter what position I hold. If it wasn't for you, I might be long dead."
Andrew smiled plainly and didn't say anything.
After a while, Phoenix thought of something and said, "Commander, I got the information you wanted me to look into. It was the Turner family's doing. They bought 80% of the Clark family's properties with low price."
Andrew's stern face turned dark, he gritted his teeth and said, "The Turner family!"
Half a year ago, the Clark family which was the top 3 family in the K City found themselves in trouble. Andrew's stepfather, Peter Clark, was duped and he committed suicide.
Peter was Andrew's father's best friend. Andrew's parents died when he was 8 and Peter took him in after that.
Peter treated Andrew very well and treated him like his own son. He even agreed to let his daughter, Emily Clark, marry Andrew! One could say that Peter was the nicest person Andrew had ever met apart from his parents.
But he never thought that he would only get the news about Peter's death half a year after the incident happened.
He was the commander and was a legend protecting the country. But he didn't even know about the death of the person closest to him.
Who could comprehend his feelings?
He returned this time to make the Turner family pay for their doings.
The Turner family was the most influential in K City. The Clark family experienced a quick growth in the past 2 years and the Turner family wasn't happy about it. They pulled every trick in the book and tried to destroy the Clark family as soon as possible, in order to maintain their position as the most influential family.
"Commander, I'll go wipe the Turner family out."
"No need, I'll do it myself."
Phoenix thought for a while and said, "Commander, with your power and status, you don't have to dirty your own hands."
Andrew suddenly smirked and his face then turned bleak, "This is my own matter."
Phoenix stopped saying anything after that. The commander doing things with his own hand would be much more powerful than Phoenix.
"Drive me to the Clark House, I want to go home."
"Yes sir!" replied Phoenix.
They arrived at the Clark House 10 minutes later. Andrew told Phoenix to leave for the time being as he wanted some time alone.
He took out an old family photo from his inner pocket after Phoenix walked away. All these years on the battlefield, this photo was the sole thing that gave him the strength to get through every crisis.
He stared at the people he missed dearly in the photo and looked at the Clark House. Memories came back rushing to him.
He missed the solemn old man, the little girl with pigtails who would follow him around and called him big brother and the gentle lady who was always smiling.
He touched the photo with his fingers and looked at the solemn old man's face. Tears rolled down his cheeks.
"Dad, don't worry. I will take good care of Emily and Rosa."
Andrew stared at the seal on the Clark House's main entrance. Waves of emotions surged in his heart.
"Do you see that? That's the Clark House, and it's mine from now on," said a man.
5 young people walked up to the entrance of the Clark House.
The young man in front of the line looked like someone from an influential family judging by the way he dressed.
"Mr. West, are you serious? I thought it was sealed?"
"Ha-ha, if I said it's mine then it's mine. My dad promised that he would buy this place and give it to me on my birthday. If you don't believe me, I can bring you in right now," said the young man all pleased. "Wow, that's so cool."
"Yeah, Mr. West. That's so rad."
They pushed the door to the entrance as they talked.
"Stop!" Andrew growled.
The young man who was in front looked at Andrew as he heard him growled. He looked him up and down and said, "Are you talking to me?"
"Repeat what you just said!" said Andrew with a threatening voice.
The young man was startled, he inspected Andrew's face carefully and after a good 10 seconds, he laughed heartily and said, "I know who you are. You are that person who grew up in the Clark family and got married to Emily. What's your name again? Andrew Stone?"
Albert West continued saying sarcastically, "You don't know what happened to the Clark family yet, right? Let me tell you, the Clark family was conning the people with their low-quality products half a year ago and their business was seized. Your father-in-law, Peter Clark, had committed suicide out of shame as he was afraid to take responsibility for the incident."
Andrew's fist was clenched so tightly it was cracking when he heard what Albert said. Peter treated everything with the utmost respect. To him, dignity and credibility were more important than his life, and still, he was slandered even after death!
"What? Did you come back to continue living under the Clark family? Okay, the Clark family is gone but you still have me. If you kneel and beg me, I can consider letting you watch the house. You might be slightly better than a watchdog."
Albert laughed frantically and the people around him followed suit.
"Why? Are you mad? Are you going to bite me?" Albert continued to provoke Andrew.
"Albert West, you'll be my first gift to the Turner family."
He walked towards Albert as he said that.
Albert snorted. He crossed his arm as he said, "Are you going to fight me?"
The moment he said that two bodyguards in black who was arranged by the Turner family to protect Albert came out of somewhere.
Albert said blithely, "Both you of, cut off his legs."
As he finished his sentence, he noticed that Andrew disappeared all of a sudden and the two bodyguards were already on the floor.
It happened so fast that Albert didn't even see his attacks. The fight was over in an instant.
"Albert, you shouldn't slander my father." Andrew's words were as cold as a sharp blade, stabbing Albert in the chest.
Albert was breaking out in cold sweat seeing how strong Andrew was.
"You, you," Albert stuttered as he trembled in fear.
Andrew didn't let him continue, he grabbed Albert's throat with his cold hands and lifted him off the ground.000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
