The Rise of Dragon Temple

Chapter 62

What kind of people were gathered together? At this moment, at the gate of the venue, the direct descendants of the Mooney family were nervously kneeling on the ground. Leonard, Dominic, Tommy, Lily, Maxton… And also Harrison and Rory from the Shelton family. Beside them were more than a hundred fully armed soldiers from the military, guarding them. When the people around the venue saw those from the Mooney family, they instantly recalled the scene of them bullying Paige at the wedding. Therefore, when they gazed upon the Mooneys, the crowd seemed very unfriendly. If it weren’t for the soldiers around them blocking them, the Mooneys would have been beaten up. However, despite soldiers blocking them, some people still got a bunch of rotten fruits from nowhere and threw them directly at the people from the Mooney family. Lily and Maxton, who had slapped Paige at the Mooney family banquet previously, were hit by the fruits the most. The two of them were kneeling on the ground with their heads down, not daring to move an inch. In fact, when Leonard had asked the Mooney family to come and apologize to Joseph earlier, Lily had been very reluctant. She couldn’t bring herself to do so. However, she didn’t dare to not go. Only she herself knew how she had treated Paige in the past few years. Paige was silly and sweet, but Joseph, as the God of War, was not so easy to fool. In other words, Joseph didn’t need to destroy Lily personally. All he needed was to just say a few words… At this moment, the people of the Mooney family and the Shelton family were kneeling at the door full of regret and fear. In the courtyard, Joseph, Paige, and the other big shots from Oplen namely Dennis, Tang Yun, Ernie, and Felix, the God of War in the Central Region, were talking to each other. The atmosphere between the two places was a huge contrast. The most excited person was Joseph’s mother in-law, Estella. She was very pleased with her son-in-law. She kept pulling Paige behind her and kept whispering to her. “Paige, listen to me. You are officially married to Joseph today. Go and get your marriage certificate in the afternoon. In the future, you must be good to Joseph.

Your cooking is not up to par, so learn well. You also need to keep your house tidy. Joseph is busy out there, so you should maintain your household well. Do you

• understand? If you treat Joseph badly in the future and flaunt your identity

everywhere, I will not spare you!” Estella said to Paige very seriously. Her expression and tone were as if she was afraid that Paige would lose Joseph. After listening to this, Paige was shocked. She looked at Estella with her mouth wide open and said, “Mom, did you lose your memory? I am your daughter, okay?  How could you side him so much? Joseph is busy, but I also have to go out to work in future. Besides, Mom, your attitude has changed too fast, hasn’t it? Didn’t you just say that you wouldn’t let me marry Joseph?” Hearing that, Estella’s body trembled and she refused to admit it. “Did I say that? Who heard what I said? Paige, don’t frame me. I told you from the beginning that Joseph was the best son-in-law! You might have heard it wrong… How could I say that…” Hearing Estella’s words, Paige felt speechless. But then she shook her head and smiled. It was better for her mother to be satisfied with Joseph, wasn’t it… While Paige was ruminating on this, Estella, who had been teaching her a lesson so seriously then hurried to Joseph’s side and chatted with him with a smile… “Er…” The corner of Paige’s mouth twitched twice. “Mom, do you have to be so materialistic?” She couldn’t help but pat her mother’s forehead. Paige then lowered her head and didn’t dare to look at Tang Yun, Dennis, and the others. These guests were all VIPs in Oplen. “They are being so respectful to you all because of Joseph, okay?” Paige whispered internally, sighing at Estella’s behavior. “Mr. Dawson, I’ve already ordered the food in the Mirage Hotel. Shall we go now? It’s almost noon. What do you think?” Dennis said respectfully to Joseph. After thinking for a while, Joseph said, “Well, okay, let’s have a meal together…”

of War who had been fighting for his life in the outer regions! “M-Mr. Dawson, please… please hold on..” Just as Joseph and the others were about to leave for the wedding car outside, Leonard, who was kneeling on one side, finally opened his mouth with difficulty. Joseph didn’t want to pay attention to that snobbish Leonard, but he still paused for a moment. In a few days, he would leave here, and Paige and Chloe would also leave in the future. So it was better to solve these matters completely. So Joseph looked at Leonard and asked with a sneer, “Huh, Mr. Mooney,

• At this moment, when Leonard looked at Joseph again, his heart was full of

he had built had lost a great opportunity, and it was very likely that they were doomed. Because on his way here

forgive you?” Joseph sneered disdainfully. Leonard felt his heart wilt, and he nodded bitterly… Joseph took a deep breath and continued to look at Leonard. “Leonard, as the head of the family, you are not stupid. On the contrary, you are very smart. You have noticed it since the first time I secretly helped Paige, haven’t you?” Leonard nodded bitterly again. Yes, he had noticed it a long time ago. Otherwise, he would not have asked Paige to ask Joseph out that day. Joseph also nodded and looked at Leonard again, saying, “That day at the hotel, I gave you a chance, and I also gave you many chances. All the problems of your Mooney family have been solved. Leonard, even if I

displeased? Why…” After saying that, Joseph wanted to continue walking forward, but Dominic, who was kneeling beside Leonard, suddenly begged Joseph, “Mr. Dawson, Mr. Dawson, please stop for a while. I apologize to you on behalf of my son, Max… Our deepest apologies to Paige…” Lily’s father, Tommy, also hurriedly kowtowed to Joseph and said, “Mr. Dawson, I apologize to you and Paige for daughter Lily. Please forgive us…” On the other side, Harrison and Rory were also begging for

you could apologize to me and kneel here? Huh? Did I say that?” Then Joseph sneered and ignored these people. He then pulled Paige into the bridal car. Estella and Yahir also sneered and got into another vehicle and left. If they had known what would happen today, they wouldn’t have done it at the beginning. At this moment, when Dominic and Harrison saw that Joseph had left, they were completely desperate. Leonard seemed to have completely aged. He stood up and left, trembling. He didn’t say a word. In fact, when Maxton forced Leonard to give the vice presidency of the company to Lily, Leonard refused it. He really refused it. But Leonard’s orders fell on deaf ears in the Mooney family. In fact, the person in charge had become Maxton… Leonard had started the Mooney family’s glory, but since there was no one good left in the younger generation, it was better that the family was ruined this way. It was better than having the family destroyed and also deaths in the family later on. When Leonard left, he glanced at Maxton and sneered. These were the two people who had always thought that they could carry forward the Mooney family. They did have abilities, but their hearts were evil! Leonard left, but those people of the Mooney family were stunned on the spot. Now they stopped kneeling and sat directly on the ground. Without Joseph, they couldn’t be bothered to pretend. At this time, Dennis walked to the front of the pale-faced Harrison. He squatted down and tidied up his clothes and said, “Huh, Harrison, why do you think the Shelton family wants to get involved in this mess? Or do you really think that you can be on equal footing with me and Ernie just because you have a deputy general of the Eagle Troop in your family?” “No… I don’t dare. I, I have never thought about it like that, and I don’t dare to think about it…” Harrison quickly lowered his head and said to Dennis. He was not stupid. The moment Joseph left, Harrison knew that the time to settle accounts had come. And the person who would do that was Dennis! He was the richest man in Oplen and the most

gave him a deep look, saying, “Oh, Tommy, I’ve heard of you. It seems that we’ve met once before, right? Huh, you really have a good daughter. You not only chased Miss Mooney away, but you even pulled Maxton up in status, making him a deputy general of the Eagle Troop. Your daughter is really amazing. Huh, she not only destroyed the Mooney family but even your future is also ruined…” Ernie then turned around and left. But after a few steps, Ernie looked at the desperate Rory, pointed at him and said meaningfully to Tommy, “Oh, by the way, thinking about your family, your daughter is really amazing. I really admire her… Her heart is so evil! Tsk, tsk, tsk.” After Ernie left, the God of War of the Central Region, Felix, came to Maxton, who was kneeling on the ground. Maxton was the only one who was still kneeling. When he saw Felix, Maxton looked at Felix with tears all over his face and pleaded, “My lord…” “Humph! You are so short-sighted! You don’t even know that you have been used! You are dismissed from the military, and your skills will be removed!” After Felix finished speaking, he slammed his palm on Maxton’s
