Chapter 553 If You Don’t Plan For Yourself, Misfortune Will Befall You

“We’re done here. That’s all I’ll say to you. Pack up your things now. You’re going to follow us to Garthram,” Donald said.

“Sure.” Henry nodded. He was very reluctant, but he dared not say more when faced with the objection from all other members of his family.

He could only formulate his plans slowly. When the time came, he would ask. Richard and Nicholas for their opinions.

The Archers had also heard word from the Southlake authorities on evacuating the city. They didn’t want to leave the place they had been born and bred in, either.

“The businesses that make up the foundation of our family are all here, but now we’re forced to leave due to the war. I don’t want to,” Lawrence bemoaned.

“Exactly! I don’t know what’s up with Diatoran, really. They’re giving up on Southlake City!” Vince said.

“It’s all because of Caspian Lynch. Isn’t he the chief commander? He must’ve decided to give up on Southlake City because he’s useless!” Susan said sarcastically.

“I don’t know why the King had elected a good-for-nothing like Caspian as chief commander. He must’ve been blind. Could someone so useless really lead troops in battle?” Nicholas said bitterly.

“Caspian must’ve decided to give up on Southlake City because he found the enemy’s attacks to be too aggressive and thus wasn’t confident that he could win against them.

“Everything is his fault. Now, we’re forced to evacuate, and our businesses will be snatched away by other people!” Lawrence barked.

Having directed the conversation toward the main topic, Nicholas decided that it was time he brought it up. “Grandpa, I have a good idea if you don’t want to leave our family home here and want to secure the family businesses.”

“Oh? What good idea might that be?” Lawrence asked.

Would Nicholas really have something up his sleeve?
