Chapter 158 A Natural General

“Gift?”

Shirley hurriedly waved her hands and stepped backward. “Mr. Robinson, thank you, but I can’t accept

your gift. See, I haven’t even prepared anything for you. You really don’t have to give me at gift”

Ever since the Wilson family declined and Shirley married into the Stewart family, she had suffered a lot

over the years. It had been a long time since she had felt respected and loved.

As the Robinson family was friendly, Shirley was very touched and a little guilty.

After all, she was just acting it and failed to live up to them.

Bruce frowned and said seriously, “What nonsense are you talking about, Shirley? What do you mean

by that? I like you very much. I’ve made up my mind to take you as the future hostess of the Robinson

family… So I’m not joking. You can even take it as a betrothal gift.”

Shirley cleared her throat. “Thank you, anyway.”

Shirley was so embarrassed, wishing that she could leave quickly.

If she had known that the Robinson family was so serious, Shirley would not have interfered no

matter what.

Shirley hurriedly winked at Danny, who pretended not to see her. He even asked Bruce excitedly,

“Grandpa, don’t pay lip service. The betrothal gift cannot be too cheap, or it will be very

embarrassing.

“It is said that the Stewart family gave Shirley a luxurious house as a betrothal gift when Shirley got

married. How much are you going to spend?”

“Humph, it’s tacky to measure it by money. Nowadays… who still lacks money? Only the nouveau riche

like the Stewart family likes to take this way.”

Bruce showed a very disdainful expression. He did not take the head of the top eight families of Seatle

City seriously at all.

Bruce looked up and proudly pointed to the hundreds of armed soldiers. He said, “Shirley, you are

Jason’s granddaughter and were born into a military family. You’re a natural general, but your father

chose to be a businessman instead. In the end, he suffered a crushing defeat. So… I will give you this

well–trained No. 16 army of the Robinson family to help you revive your family.”

“You … want to give me a troop?”

Shirley was stunned by this gift.

She had thought that Bruce would give her money, treasures, real estate, and so on, but Shirley had Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

not expected that it would be such a strong team.

“This troop is trained by me. All of the soldiers are strong and have made countless contributions. I

named them ‘Devil Legion‘. Now it is yours.”

After that, Bruce took off a medal in front of his chest and seriously handed it to Shirley. Then, he

said to the legion of 500 people, “The medal is like a military order. The person holding the medal

will be your general. From now on, you will fight for her.”

The moment Bruce finished speaking, 500 well–trained and loyal soldiers immediately knelt on one

knee and said to Shirley in an imposing manner, “We’re always at your service, General

Wilson.”

Shirley originally wanted to refuse, but probably because she was touched by the words “a natural

general“, she looked at those soldiers and immediately felt excited.

Shirley remembered when she was a child, her grandfather told her the story of leading soldiers to

fight. She also dreamed more than once that she would one day wear a battle suit and become a great

general who made her grandfather and the Wilson family proud.

Therefore, Shirley raised the medal high and shouted to the soldiers, “Fight for honor!”

It might look exaggerated to others, but when it came to Shirley, it was so perfect as if she was born

to fight. It looked very stirring.

“Good. Very good!”

Bruce stood to the side and kept nodding. He looked gratified, his eyes filled with tears. He thought,

Jason, do you see this? Just like you, your granddaughter is a natural general. Her future is promising!

Chaz held Yasmin’s hand, and tears also welled up in their eyes. They wondered, so cool. Our son has

finally made us proud once. This is simply our dream daughter–in–law.

Only Danny was a little embarrassed. He thought, damn. They seem to be serious. The troop was even

sent to Shirley. If I’m caught, will they let go of me?

Then they sat in a fancy car and went to the top–notch restaurant in Santho City.

Yasmin believed that Shirley was her future daughter–in–law. She pushed Danny to the side and tried

to sit next to Shirley. Along the way, Yasmin held Shirley’s hand and pointed to the view outside the

window. “Shirley, look at that mall. It belongs to our family… That building and the highest TV tower in

the distance are also ours. We’ve invested in five local TV stations…”

Shirley looked at those buildings all the way and couldn’t help but sigh. She thought the Robinson

family was really strong, even comparable to the Stewart family.

However, the two powerful families didn’t take it the same way.

The Stewart family was located in Seatle City. As it was close to the coast and the traffic network was

well developed, it was an economic center.

The situation was different in Santho City. It was an inland city, and the industrial structure was simple.

There were many monopolies.

The two families were both very powerful. Because of their ancestors, they disliked each other.

Fortunately, they didn’t interfere with each other and developed their own ways. So there were no

disputes of interest.

Thus, Shirley seemed to become the center of a bitter competition battle between the two great

families.

Shirley and the others came to the restaurant and sat down.

Bruce sat at the head of the table. He picked up a glass of wine and said, “Shirley, you have suffered

these years. I heard that the Stewart family did not treat you well, and you were kicked out of the

Stewart family. You can take it, but I can’t. So I thought twice and decided to attack the Stewart family. I

will teach them a lesson and avenge you.”

After he finished speaking, Bruce drank a glass of wine.

Shirley held the wine glass and said in fear, “Thank you for your care, Mr. Robinson. But you don’t

have.to avenge me. I haven’t suffered much in the Stewart family all these years, because I was willing.

Now that I am divorced, I have nothing to do with the Stewart family. I don’t want to contact

them anymore.

“No!”

Bruce said, “You’re too soft. You can’t think that way. I have to look after you for your grandfather’s

sake, so I must avenge you.”

“Well…”

Shirley was a little awkward.

She thought, is Bruce joking or just paying lip service? If he really wants to avenge me, what’s he going

to do?

Just as Shirley was about to say something, the waiter nervously pushed open the door and came in.

He said in fear, “Excuse me. I’m sorry to disturb you. Someone is waiting outside and would like to

have a meal with everyone. Do you agree?”
