I traverse America, using holy light to quell American terror!

As Li Yuan changed his pants, he rolled his eyes at Adeline.

"After you meet up with Kaplan in a bit, you'll play his secretary."

He looked at Adeline and earnestly instructed her:

"Don't give me away, you hear me? Your presence will make them lower their guard."

Upon hearing this, Adeline carefully parted her fingers, which were covering her eyes, a crack.

She looked at Li Yuan and asked curiously:

"Oh... then I don't need to do anything else with him, right?"

"Of course not! What are you thinking about all day?"

While Li Yuan was helplessly complaining about Adeline,

Kaplan, accompanied by his security team, also arrived at the airport.

In the car, Kaplan called Li Yuan to confirm the meeting place.

After Li Yuan reported his location and Rafael's license plate number,

He sat quietly in the car, waiting for Kaplan to arrive.

A short while later, a stretched Lincoln and a Mercedes-Benz minivan arrived.

They parked on either side of Li Yuan's car.

Li Yuan stared at the bodyguard who stepped out of the van.

He patted his chest, and his coat instantly transformed into a suit.

The shoes on her feet were also changed to the same style of black leather shoes as the bodyguards.

Adeline stared in astonishment at Li Yuan's transformation, her mouth agape.

She had assumed the witches' abilities were already quite remarkable.

I never expected to see something even more outrageous today.

"Don't just stand there, get out of the car and follow them."

Li Yuan glared at Adeline, then put on his sunglasses, pushed open the car door, and got out.

He blended in with the bodyguards without making a sound.

Adeline, realizing what was happening, followed closely behind.

I got off the bus and followed Kaplan ahead.

Kaplan, with a serious expression, led a group of people and strode towards his private plane.

After boarding, a relaxed Kaplan finally dared to ask:

"Your Excellency, although you could disguise yourself as a bodyguard and accompany me to New York..."

You certainly can't enter the Croc family's manor.

As he spoke, Kaplan glanced at Adeline:

"Given that old man's cautious nature,

"At most, I can only bring this beautiful lady in with me."

Li Yuan did not explain Kaplan's concerns, but instead gave the order directly:

"That's not something you need to worry about. Wait until we arrive in New York."

Bruce will drive, and Adeline, you, and I will ride in the car together—the four of us.

"Yes, Your Grace! I've already had Hoyce prepare the car in New York."

Li Yuan nodded, leaned back in his chair, and slowly closed his eyes.

I secretly said:

"Since the old man from the Rocky family doesn't know what's good for him, then let him go down and keep his son company."

Five hours later, the plane landed at New York's JFK International Airport.

It was now New York time, around 10:30 p.m.

After everyone got off the plane, they were assigned cars as agreed beforehand.

Li Yuan pulled up the partition in the back of the car to prevent people outside from seeing that there were three people sitting in the back seat.

He looked at Kaplan and whispered the instructions:

"Bruce will open the door for you when he gets out of the car. You can get out normally, don't worry about me."

Then, Li Yuan turned to Adeline and instructed her:

"After you get out of the car, open the door, pause for three seconds, and then close the door. Understand?"

Li Yuan looked at Adeline and said in a serious tone:

"Whether you see me get out of the car or not, you must close the door."

"clear."

Although it's unclear what Li Yuan is planning to do...

Adeline nodded slightly in response.

I've already given instructions on everything that needs attention.

Li Yuan also breathed a slight sigh of relief.

It's not that Li Yuan is afraid of making things so complicated;

They were being so cautious because they were afraid William Lodge would run away.

If the Rocky family's manor were like the Patron family's,

Possessing evil creatures or superhuman beings.

So when Li Yuan rushed to William Lodge's residence,

He probably escaped through the secret passage long ago.

For a family of this caliber,

It's impossible for a home not to have a secret passage or room for emergency escape.

While Li Yuan was lost in thought, the two cars had already driven out of the airport one after the other.

Heading towards the Southampton estate on Long Island, New York.

The airport is more than two hours' drive from there.

Li Yuan estimated that once the car arrived at its destination,

It's probably past midnight.

This is also a good time to get things done.

As the car drove deeper into Long Island's affluent neighborhood, the surrounding traffic and people became increasingly sparse.

Police officers could be seen patrolling along the way from time to time.

Vehicles approaching this area were checked one by one.

Anyone acting suspiciously will be immediately removed.

Like a watchdog guarding the outskirts of a wealthy neighborhood, they are dutiful and responsible.

Soon after, the car finally arrived at the gates of Lodge Manor in Southampton.

The bodyguard at the gate stopped the car and then called inside the estate to report the incident.

The car waited outside for a long time before being allowed to pass through, after the bodyguards verified the identity and the manor staff confirmed it.

Following the bodyguard's directions, the car slowly drove into Rocky Manor.

After driving for quite a while, they finally stopped in front of a villa.

Adeline felt a little nervous about what was about to happen.

She subconsciously turned her head to look at Li Yuan beside her.

But he found that there was no one around him!

"plum..."

Adeline was about to speak in surprise,

Then I heard Li Yuan's voice in my ear:

"Shut up! Proceed as planned."

Adeline looked in surprise at the empty seat beside her.

I resisted the urge to touch it with my hand.

She swallowed hard and nodded nervously.

Then, I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.

When Adeline opened her eyes again, her face had changed completely.

She transformed once again into the alluring and seductive witch she had been when they first met.

Bruce opened the door and got out of the car, quickly walking to the back door and reaching out to open it.

But he was suddenly stopped by the bodyguards in the manor.

The bodyguard stared at Bruce expressionlessly and said in a deep voice:

"Go back and sit down. You can't get off the bus."

Bruce silently withdrew his hand, nodded expressionlessly, and slowly walked back.

After the bodyguard watched Bruce get into the car and sit down,

He then reached out and opened the car door on Kaplan's side.

"Hello, Mr. Kaplan, the host is already waiting for you in the drawing room."

At this moment, Kaplan showed no sign of tension and smiled as he said to his bodyguard:

I want to bring my secretary with me; she's a beautiful woman.

Though she's stunningly beautiful, Mr. Rocky shouldn't mind, right?

The bodyguard frowned upon hearing this and looked down into the car.

Adeline, with her slender figure and stunning beauty, smiled sweetly at the bodyguard.

Her eyes were so alluring that the bodyguard almost lost his composure.

He quickly coughed lightly, straightened his posture, and said:

"Okay, please follow me."

Kaplan smiled and nodded, then stepped out of the car.

At this moment, Adeline also reached out to pull the other side of the car door, intending to get out of the car as well.

But another bodyguard beat him to it.

After the other person opened the car door, they gestured for Adeline to get out of the car.

Seeing that the other car door had been closed, Adeline's heart tightened.

But she maintained a charming smile on her face, without the slightest flaw.

In the blink of an eye, Adeline had a plan.

Her expression remained unchanged, and she smiled slightly.

She stretched out a beautiful leg encased in stockings and gracefully stepped onto the carpet in front of the door.

Then, she looked at the bodyguard with seductive eyes.

Extending a hand, she said softly:

"Can you help me? High heels can be really annoying sometimes."
