Chapter 460

Erica and Shelly left the bedroom to get the medicine box. Distracted, Shelly whispered uneasily, "Mom, should I call Dad?"

Erica suddenly turned to her and said in a high-pitched voice, "No, you can't!’

Seeing Shelly taken aback, Erica calmed down and pulled her aside, whispering, Don't call your dad. He doesn't want the Wheeler family to cooperate with Mr. Chancely. What if he ruins our plan?

"Shelly, you don't understand. Now, the Wheeler family doesn't have an option other than working with Mr. Chancely. Don't listen to your dad, or you'll destroy the Wheeler family."

At the mention of this, Erica let out a sigh. "Shelly, your dad... After all, he’s not a Wheeler. Although he means no harm, he's unlikely to put himself in the Wheelers' shoes.

"As long as the Wheeler family wanted to rise and surpass the Lockwood family, it would have to take some risks. If such a thing happened to the Flouder family, your dad would make the same choice as we did.

"Alright, Shelly, go to sleep. Lock the door. As long as you don't show up in front of Mr. Chancely, he won't do anything to you. He's still counting on your grandpa to help him return to Southeast Aelinne."

Shelly looked at Erica in a daze and asked, "Mom, Dad is one of us. Why don't you trust him?"

"It's not that I don’t trust him, but it's we have different positions. Only the Wheelers will fight for what they want. Your dad doesn't care what the Wheeler family wants."

Shelly's face turned gloomy. She returned to her room in a daze and locked the door.

Sitting on the bed, she hugged herself tightly and stared blankly ahead, feeling confused and torn.

When Jerico saw that only Erica came back with the medicine box, a fierce look flashed across his eyes, making him look like a wild beast. He kept talking to Patriarch Wheeler and Frieda while his subordinates were treating his wound.

"My injuries are serious, and I need to rest and eat, so I won't leave tonight. You guys can figure out a way to send me away tomorrow morning," Jerico said.

Needless to say, Patriarch Wheeler had no objections. He asked Erica to prepare rooms for Jerico and his men.

Erica prepared three guest rooms, but Jerico decided to share the same room with his two subordinates.

If the Wheeler family was smart, they would be able to figure out why he was doing so.
