By the time the two returned, it was already midnight.

Cosmo was skilled at disguising herself; she had changed her outfit on the way and now looked almost like an ordinary girl.

Just as Julius Reed walked in, he saw the entire family up and sitting in the living room, having a meeting.

Upon his return, those people fell silent.

With a bandage wrapped around him, Federico Yarrow looked at Julius Reed with eyes filled with fear, yet mingled with a hint of malice.

“Busy?”

Julius Reed greeted them awkwardly.

“Nothing, we were just chatting,”

Quella Radcliffe said with a smile.

But just then, Cosmo happened to walk in. “Beauty, you must have the wrong door?”

Knox Ridge stood up and asked with suspicion.

Normally, their house was detached, surrounded by a yard, and guarded by four fierce-looking individuals. It was impossible for someone to just walk in.

“I didn’t get it wrong! ” Cosmo shook her head and said with a smile, “Auntie, I’m his sworn sister.”

“Sworn sister?”

Upon hearing these three words, everyone’s gaze turned to Julius Reed.

“What are you looking at! She’s just my sworn sister. I’ll go arrange a room for her!”

Julius Reed felt a sinking feeling in his heart and looked at Cosmo with a somewhat strange expression.

Indeed, the two had forgotten to align their story before coming.

Now that Cosmo had mentioned the words “sworn sister, ” he feared he would never be able to clear his name, not even if he leaped into the Yellow River.

“Wait!”

Knox Ridge stopped the two of them, asking in a mocking tone, “Well, Julius

Reed! I had no idea! While you were at our house, you were always doing the

laundry and cooking, extremely meek! Now what( Got some money and your true colors are showing?

As per Julius Reed’s request, Quella Radcliffe had no choice but to lie that Julius Reed’s brother was a wealthy man, who had recently found him and gave him a sum of money.

Otherwise, they couldn’t explain the big house and the luxury cars in the yard!

Even if Quella Radcliffe claimed to have bought them herself, Burl Radcliffe wasn’t a fool. A little bit of inquiry would have revealed the truth. “What I do is my business. It’s not anyone else’s place to meddle!” Julius Reed ignored her completely and turned to go upstairs.

“Stop right there!”

Feeling ignored made Knox Ridge extremely annoyed. She had always been hot-tempered, and this was too much for her to swallow!

“Mom!”

Quella Radcliffe quickly came over to smooth things over.

Although she also harbored suspicions about this woman’s identity, her recent understanding of Julius Reed made her choose to trust him.

Julius Reed was absolutely not that kind of person! From the Titan Group incident, she knew Julius Reed was very wealthy!

If he really wanted a woman outside, why would Julius Reed spend so much effort and money to help her seize the position of Chairman of the Radcliffe Group?

“Quella Radcliffe!”

Knox Ridge cursed out loud, and then said with a disappointed tone, “You! You! You! I, Knox Ridge, gave birth to you! Your own man is messing around outside, and now he’s brought a strange woman back home, and you stay quiet!

You’re truly hopeless!”

In her eyes, Julius Reed might have hooked up with some woman somewhere.

Additionally, the events of the past few days had made the once compliant son-in-law become arrogant, not taking her or Quella Radcliffe seriously at all.

If they didn’t handle this carefully now, it probably wouldn’t take many days before their entire family would be driven out!

To live on the streets!

“Mom! You don’t need to worry about our affairs!”

Quella Radcliffe walked up to Julius Reed and looked into his eyes, asking, “Really nothing?”

“Nothing!”

Julius Reed shook his head, his eyes crystal clear.

“Alright! Starting today, this lady… What’s your name?”

Quella Radcliffe turned to look at Cosmo.

“Cosmo!”

“Good! From today on, Cosmo is my sister. In this family, no one is allowed to give her a hard time!”

After uttering these words, Quella Radcliffe turned and returned to her own room.

Since the person in charge didn’t interfere, Knox Ridge could only swallow her anger.

She called out to Burl Radcliffe in annoyance and went back to her room to sulk.

Federico Yarrow and Emeric Ridge were arranged to sleep on the makeshift beds in the living room. After all, offending Julius Reed so badly, Quella Radcliffe certainly wasn’t going to let them off the hook easily.

Knox Ridge insisted on staying, right? Let’s see how long they can last in the living room!

“Master, your family is kind of chaotic!”

After entering the room on the top floor, Cosmo asked with a hint of mystery.

“That one, is she Master’s wife?”

“Correct!”

Leaning back in his chair with his eyes closed, Julius Reed asked, “Why did you say you’re my sworn sister?”

He couldn’t fathom why Cosmo, a usually cautious person, would make such a blunder!

Simply claiming to be his sister, or even a distant relative, would have avoided all this misunderstanding.

As a professional Shadow Warrior, if he couldn’t even think of that, Julius Reed would never believe it.

“It just slipped out!”

Cosmo tried to evade the question by lying on the bed.

“I’m giving you one last chance, come clean!”

Whoosh!

A flash of silver streaked by, grazing past Cosmo’s nose, and struck straight into the wall.

“Master!”

Cosmo was shocked and quickly sat up, looking somewhat aggrieved, “Before coming here, I had all your information. Do you know, after obtaining that intel, I was desperate to kill you at first sight!”

Julius Reed opened his eyes and asked out loud.

“According to the file, you were humiliated, three years as a ridiculed son-in-law, it was truly pathetic!”

Cosmo said indignantly, “But I never expected you to be my master! Do you know, in my mind, what kind of person my master is?”

“What kind of person?”

Interest piqued, Julius Reed asked in return.

“My master is surely a dragon among men! Although he always wears a mask, I know he must be extremely handsome and dashing, and his skills, nearly invincible!”

“Stop right there!”

Even after having lived so long, Julius Reed still felt his cheeks redden.

“It’s true!”

At this moment, Cosmo was like a little girl, completely devoid of the queen’s domineering presence and majesty.

“I thought to myself, my master, such an outstanding person, had to endure mistreatment for three years! Can you imagine how I felt?”

“So you wanted to aggravate them?”

Julius Reed finally understood; his disciple was taking up the cudgels for him!

Well, it seemed his affection wasn’t wasted.

If it weren’t for his guidance back in the day, perhaps Cosmo would now be just an ordinary woman bustling about in life.

“If I hadn’t seen your favorable attitude towards them, I might have committed murder!”

Cosmo huffed coldly, “These people really don’t know when they’re well off! I’ve been searching for you for three years, and yet here you were, being mistreated!”

As she spoke, she puckered her lips, looking somewhat aggrieved, “Master, why did you disappear without a word? Do you have any idea how I’ve been looking for you everywhere these past three years?”

Before Julius Reed lost his memory, he would visit Cosmo once a year in Europe and give her guidance.

But since three years ago, he had vanished without a trace!

From that moment on, Cosmo, like a madwoman, searched the world for him!

But she had only seen Julius Reed with his mask on and had no idea what he really looked like!

“Alright! Starting tomorrow, you’ll be responsible for protecting your Master’s wife. We’ve had a fair bit of trouble lately, so it’s going to be tough!”

Julius Reed stood up, walked to the door of the room, and gently turned off the light.

“Good night..”
