The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call

Chapter 1639 Fredric's Regret

Lucas could hear the deep pride and affection Jackson had for Wynter. This wasn't surprising, given that she was an apprentice Jackson had gotten from Southdale and one who he owed his life to.

Lucas dared not tell Jackson that Wynter had been suppressed by those in power. He knew Jackson too well. He was devoted to the country and couldn't stand such injustice.

Lucas feared that Jackson would worry. His position was so important that if it were shaken, it would become a major issue.

Hence, Lucas continued to deceive and play along with these people, listening to their nonsense about "preferring to do nothing than to make mistakes".

Everything contrasted with the conversation he'd had with Jackson before he left.

Back then, they stood together atop a building, looking out over the endless mountains in the distance when Jackson said, "Do what you must without hesitation just as you did in Southdale. I am here in Kingbourne, waiting for you and Wynter to return."

These people simply didn't deserve any mercy!
