The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 310 Cautious

“Wendell! What do you mean by that?” Charles‘ expression darkened.

“Since you don’t intend to help the York family, there’s nothing more to say.” Wendell smiled faintly.

Then, he left with Celestia and the others.

“Dad, aren’t we seeking the God of Gambling’s help? Why are we leaving?” Just after leaving the villa, Celestia asked in confusion.

They came to the Hoff family looking for help but received nothing at all.

By leaving now, did it mean that the York family had accepted their fate?

“Celestia, things aren’t that simple. Charles is a smart man. He should understand what I mean.” Wendell smiled confidently.

If Charles knew what Caspian had been up to lately, he definitely wouldn’t sit idly by.

As New Bay’s God of Gambling, Charles held substantial funds. The Hoff family must’ve engaged in many illegal activities. Hence, Caspian wouldn’t spare them.

So, even if Wendell didn’t seek Charles‘ help, Charles still needed to find a way to deal with Caspian. Otherwise, the fate of the Hoff family would be like Galecrest!

“Cole, we might’ve had some minor conflicts before, but we have a common enemy now. I hope you can join me in dealing with Caspian,” Wendell said to the silent Cole.

“I understand. I know my priorities!” Cole replied arrogantly.

Wendell didn’t bother with further words. As long as they could eliminate Caspian, it would be advantageous for them.

If they failed, they would face the Kane family’s punishment once they returned to Dhord City.

Cole wasn’t a fool. He would definitely stand with the York family right now.

At Hoff Manor, shouts could be heard.

“This Wendell truly thinks he’s unmatched. He’s just the head of a second–rate family in Dhord City, yet he dares to act unreasonably in your presence!” Jean exclaimed angrily.

The York family was merely a second–rate force in the capital, while the Hoff family had dominated New Bay for years. But Wendell dared to be disrespectful, which was simply intolerable.

However, Jean failed to notice that his father had been sitting in silence for a long time.
