Divorced and Pregnant My New Life with a Billionaire Drives My Ex Crazy novel Chapter 379

Nikolai might have come alone, but the energy he brought filled the whole space. Behind him marched more than twenty men, all in black, closing in and surrounding the Schmidt family home without a word.

Inside, everyone from the Schmidt family huddled together, nerves shot. Even Roger, the head of the family, jumped up from the sofa the moment he heard Conrad was at the door.

“What did you just say?” Roger demanded, his voice cracking. “Conrad brought over twenty men to our house? Has he lost his mind? What does he think he’s doing? Has he forgotten there are laws, that there are rules? I’m still standing here! How dare he pull something like this right in front of me? I haven’t even dealt with him for what happened to my nephew, and now he just barges in here. Does he think I’m scared to go against him? Someone, call security—now! Have them come and throw this thug out! I’m gonna put him in jail!”

It wasn’t long before Roger’s eldest son came running back, flustered and pale. “Dad… the security team says they’re on their way. And, um, the police just called too. They said not to worry, but… to let Conrad in first. And, uh, they said to be polite and treat him well.”

Roger stared, dumbfounded. “What?”

His face cycled through every possible emotion, red to green and back again. When he finally snapped out of it, he threw out his arm and shouted, “Don’t—”

But it was already too late. The terrified Schmidts had already opened the door.

Conrad stepped over the threshold, his tone smooth as he greeted, “Mr. Schmidt. Good evening. I heard you’ve taken a young lady. You knew exactly who she was, and you did it anyway. Is the Schmidt family really picking a fight with me?”

He walked in, hand in hand with a beautiful, visibly pregnant young lady. The Schmidts looked at each other, unsure, the tension thick in the air. Roger couldn’t take his eyes off Wiona.

“Isn’t she Mrs. Salisbury?” Roger sneered. “Conrad, you’re really going to stand up for another man’s wife? Everyone in the world will laugh at you?”

Conrad gave a lazy wave to the men behind him. “Surround the place.”

In a heartbeat, two dozen of the Sullivan family’s bodyguards had sealed off every exit. The Schmidts had only four guards, and they looked like they wanted to disappear. No one knew where to turn.

Wiona glared at Roger, her eyes cold. She let out a short, sharp laugh. “Whether people laugh at us or not is none of your business. What I know is, Mr. Schmidt, you’ve been getting revenge on your enemies by secretly trafficking people. Just for money, you let your nephew run wild in Esctsay, protecting local gangs and covering up all kinds of crimes. How many more crimes have you hidden, huh? Aren’t you worried the world will find out?”

Roger’s face went from pale to furious. “What kind of nonsense is this?”

He nearly sprang out of his skin. “Conrad, you’re just going to let your woman stand here and slander us? You want me to have you both arrested for defamation?”
