Meanwhile, back in Phison, Avery took some time to rest after returning from Mount Cloud before addressing urgent matters.

Late at night, he was still busy in his study.

Irwin knocked on the door and entered after receiving permission.

“Mr. Cox, there’s news from the Gordon family. Ms. Garcia has awakened.”

Avery paused momentarily while signing a document before continuing with his work.

“Okay, got it.”

Then he remembered something and summoned a skilled operative who had been assigned to protect Neera.

“During the past few days in the dense forest, what activities have been observed from Lordsworth Estate?”

The operative, with his head slightly lowered, respectfully replied, “Ever since the Gordon family entered the forest, I had a feeling that someone was following them from a distance. Later, I discovered it was someone from the Medicina family.”

Avery furrowed his brow. “Wasn’t it stated that the Medicina family and the Gordon family encountered each other by chance?”

“That’s what they claimed, but the Medicina family clearly came prepared. Although their routes weren’t exactly the same, it seemed like they were well aware of the Gordon family’s actions. They appeared to help at crucial moments and then continued to travel with us. I don’t believe it was a simple coincidence. What’s more, it’s not just the Medicina family; all the factions from Lordsworth Estate were protecting Ms. Garcia.”

Avery had already been informed of this situation, but hearing it again, he couldn’t help but feel confused.

“I heard that all the factions from Lordsworth Estate cleared out the other families of the Bartitsu Guild, but they didn’t attack the Gordon family. Afterward, they handed the white flag to Ms. Garcia. What’s going on?”

The operative was just as puzzled.

“I don’t know. When Ms. Garcia and the others were surrounded by the Bartitsu Guild members led by the Jennings family, it was Medicine River from the Medicina family who arrived with people from Lordsworth Estate and drove them away. It seemed like everything was done to protect Ms. Garcia. When they reached the mountaintop, I thought there might be a dispute, but all the people from Lordsworth Estate claimed they were there for sightseeing and had no interest in the white flag. That Darcel even pulled out the white flag and handed it to Ms. Garcia.”

“Darcel?” Avery took note of this individual. “Is he the man with a scar on his face?”

“Yes, him. Speaking of which, there’s another strange thing. He came with the Medicina family, but I don’t understand why. When we encountered an ambush at night, I had a chance to see his martial skills. I had the feeling that he wasn’t following the Medicina family’s traditional style. Even though his skills seemed less fierce and less powerful, every move was deadly. I believe that not only us, but even the top experts in the entire Phison, may not be able to match him.”

Avery’s expression turned serious when he heard about this highly skilled individual.

“He doesn’t seem to belong to the Medicina family, then. Do you have any other impressions? Does he resemble anyone else?”

The operative thought for a moment and then shook his head, completely clueless.

“I have never seen such skills in Phison.”

Upon hearing this, Avery rose to his feet. He walked to the window and gazed out at the dark sky. His expression was solemn, a frown etched between his brows.

“You’ve never seen such skills, huh? I have never heard of the Medicina family secretly training individuals like him. It seems that Darcel is not an official member of the Medicina family. This is getting interesting.”

In fact, Avery found it quite unbelievable that Neera managed to obtain the white flag. What puzzled him even more was the attitude of Lordsworth Estate.

Although he had previously discussed it with Matthew, that was mainly to stop Matthew from suspecting Neera.

Avery himself was filled with doubt and felt that Lordsworth Estate’s actions were beyond normal reasoning.

However, if it wasn’t for the purpose of protecting Neera, there was no other plausible explanation.

Could it be that Neera’s rescue of the young master of Lordsworth Estate earned her the favor of everyone in the estate? Also, who exactly is Darcel?

Although they had only crossed paths once, Avery couldn’t shake the feeling of an inexplicable hostility in the man’s eyes.

He couldn’t figure out both the lord of Lordsworth Estate and that man. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

Avery’s eyes were deep and contemplative as he pondered the true intentions of these individuals.

At this moment, in the Continent Master’s Mansion.

After putting Neera to sleep, Jean reluctantly hung up the phone.

He recalled her mentioning Darcel over the phone and smiled.

If the little fool finds out I’m Darcel one day, she will throw a tantrum, won’t she?

Just then, there was a knock at the door of his study.

“Come in,” he said, and the warmth in his eyes disappeared instantly. He turned and walked back to his desk, his expression once again cold.

Luna entered the room. “My Lord, you called for me.”

“Yes,” Jean replied in a calm tone. “There’s something I need you to take care of. Gather our men and ensure that the Jennings family is completely eliminated. Remember, don’t let a single one of them escape.”
