Chapter 1157: Was what he did enough?

[Pierson's Island]

After what felt like an eternity, Finn's group finally arrived at Pierson's Castle. Every second felt longer than it should, and Finn could've sworn that it was probably one of the longest half-hours of his life.

"Welcome," Butler Lee greeted the group outside the residence with a warm smile. "Please, let our staff assist with your things."

"Uh, thanks! But it's alright!" Lily energetically waved to the helpers of the castle. "It's just a bag; no need to worry."

Hearing this, Max couldn't help but glare daggers at her. 'How come she wouldn't let them hold her things while she had no qualms throwing everything in my direction?'

"It's okay, Ray," James, on the other hand, was still helping Ray. "We're already here. You can always rest now."

"What happened to him?" asked Butler Lee out of curiosity, only to earn a conflicted smile from James.

"I see. Then, let us help you with Sir Ray," said Butler Lee.

"Uh, thanks. I guess the boat ride didn't help him feel better."

With that, the servants carefully assisted Ray, taking him to a room where he could rest. As this unfolded and the master's guests took their things, Butler Lee couldn't help but furrow his brows.

Where were the Young Master and the Young Madam? Also, the Young Madam's brothers?

"Uh..."

"Butler Lee, did you prepare it?" Finn asked before Butler Lee could inquire about the missing people in the group.

Deep lines appeared between Butler Lee's brows as he looked at Finn, confused. "Prepare...?"
