Chapter 1045


    Jacob had a cold look on his face as he shouted. He seemed like he tried to look as majestic as he


    could.


    “He’s not here. He left in the morning,” Gilbert said.


    “Not here? Old man, do you think I’m so easy to trick?!” Jacobughed, clearly not believing Gilbert.


    “You can believe whatever you want!” Gilbert’s expression darkened.


    He was still a part of the second generation of the Youngs before, a direct descendant as well. He was


    incredibly furious at being called an old man so disrespectfully by Jacob, but there was nothing he


    could do.


    “Stop trying to pull that with me!”


    Jacobughed coldly before summoning up energy, shouting out, “Leon,e out here, you coward! If


    you keep hiding and refuse toe out, don’t me me for what I do to Iris!”


    As he said that, Jacob shot a look at Marco and Jackson. They acknowledged it and immediately


    surrounded


    Iris and Gilbert.


    “You dare?”


    Gilbert’s expression changed when he saw that Jacob wanted to do something to Iris. He hurriedly put


    Iris behind him.


    “Attack!” Leon still did not appear, so Jacob let out his orders coldly.


    He knew that Iris was Leon’s girlfriend. As long as he captured Iris, Leon woulde eventually!


    After Jacob’s order, Jackson reached forward. His hand contained incredible power as he quickly


    wed at IRis!


    Iris was inplete panic as she hurriedly retreated.


    Yet, she was too weak. There was no way she would be able to avoid Jackson’s attack!


    “Stop!”


    Gilbert hurriedly struck at Jackson, trying to stop Jackson’s attack.


    “Please!” Jackson said in disdain. Gilbert was nothing to him. He let out a backhanded strike, beating


    away


    Gilbert’s attack.


    Bang!


    With an intense sh, the energy in Jackson’s body immediately broke through Gilbert’s attack. After


    that, the true energy viciously mmed onto Gilbert’s chest.


    Gilbert spat out two mouthfuls of blood as he flew away, mming onto the ground.


    After that, he spat out two more mouthfuls of blood. The bones all over his body were wracked with


    intense pain. He received internal injuries, and was no longer able to fight.


    At the same time, Jackson’s hand shot forward, immediately grabbing Iris’s shoulders, easily capturing


    her.


    Right after that, Jacob walked over and grabbed Iris’s neck. He summoned up his energy as he


    shouted


    around him, “Leon, if you still refuse toe out, then I’ll kill Iris right here!”


    Yet, even after a few seconds, there was no movement around them at all. Leon was yet to appear.


    “Jacob, stop wasting your time! Leon did leave in the morning. He’s not home,” Ruth said calmly. A


    sharp glint shed in her eyes.


    “Could Leon not be here?”


    Jacob started to look uncertain as he slowly started to believe it.


    He knew that Leon loved Iris a lot. When his father set up the ambush for Leon, Leon almost lost his


    life because he was not willing to leave Iris behind and run away himself!

    With how important Iris was to Leon, Leon would have already made an appearance if he was there.


    Leon would not let Iris fall into Jacob’s hands just like that!
