Upon hearing this Grace continued eating as if she did not hear anything. She seemed to have expected it. Only Rose was curious about what her brother wanted to say and glanced at Frank

Frank scanned the entire table and finally stopped spinning his sunglasses. He leaned back and supported himself with one hand on the table while rocking his chair. Half of the stool was off the ground. Frank said bluntly. “I want all of the family’s defense map.

Cranky Franky had gone crazy. He was alternating between being nonchalant and asking for the moon.

Rose took a deep breath. In this quiet atmosphere, she slowly turned to look at Grace beside her, who was calmly eating a prawn Grace wiped her mouth and gently put down cutlery before crossing her arm and asking her son, “Reason””

Frank replied curtly. It’s useful.”

Grace was not anxious. She asked slowly with a hint of fury in her eyes. Her body language was no longer as demure-looking as before. She said somberly. “Come to the main point.
