Raymond and Niklaus leaned on each other, stumbling as they walked into the house. They were clearly rattled.

As soon as they stepped inside, they froze. In the garden stood a line of soldiers, all fully armed.

Just moments ago, these soldiers had been in the middle of an intense standoff with foreign bodyguards. But now, they were casually putting down their weapons to arm–wrestle. They even shouted toward the kitchen. “Adeline, is dinner ready yet? We’re starving.”

Adeline opened the window and said defiantly, “If you didn’t waste so much energy, maybe you wouldn’t be so hungry. And stop messing with the flowers. Dalton’s gonna complain again.

The soldiers didn’t seem to care at all. They ignored her and turned back to their contest, now competing with a group of

men in suits.

The two groups of people were practicing tactical moves, throwing punches and kicks. The hits were strong, and before long, the match became a tight and heated struggle.

When Quinlyn walked into the room, they tried to drag her into their match, but Stanley, one of the boys, shot them a sharp look, instantly stopping them.

“She’s tired enough as it is. Don’t make her train more,” Stanley said, waving them off. “Come on. Quinlyn. Let’s go get some ice cream. Don’t think about those stinky guys outside. All men are stinky. Like, really stinky.”

Quinlyn raised an eyebrow. “Stanley, you’re a man, too.”

“I’m different,” Stanley said with a grin. “I sprayed cologne today. Don’t believe me? Smell for yourself.”

As they entered the living room, another group of people was gathered. In the center, a few older folks were lounging on the couch, sipping coffee and chatting.

“I knew it,” Curtis said. “The Lynch family is definitely despicable. Back when we ran out of money on that project, we contacted those overseas Cerulandians. The Lynch family was the richest, yet they claimed their heir went missing and didn’t offer a single dime.”
