Old Master nodded as he listened, agreeing, "You have a point."

Then, he added, "Felix, Vera has her character. However, she is good-natured. You don't have to take some things to heart." "Father, this is only natural. After all, we are family. How could I have a conflict with my elder sister?" Felix rushed to explain. Old Master nodded again, "If that's the case, then we'll do as you say. Let them wait another hour before I go out to meet them." "Yes, Dad. I'll go inform Warner right away," Felix replied.

Two hours later, Vera and Salman walked out of Xu Mansion's courtyard with long faces. After getting in the car, they drove away without looking back.

In the car, Vera, who was sitting in the passenger's seat, seemed dissatisfied. The more she thought about what had happened in the mansion just now, the angrier she became. She slammed the dashboard violently a few times.

Seeing this, Salman couldn't help shouting in alarm, "What are you doing? Careful, or we might crash."

When Vera heard this, she immediately lashed out at him, "How dare you yell at me! You brought your son on a trip, and now he has lost his legs. The Old Master and the others don't care about what happened to Keith at all. Are you telling me that our son's suffering was in vain?"

Salman looked solemn as well. He wanted to vent his frustration too, but his eyes glistened with another idea. Suppressing his anger, he said helplessly, "Since our opponent is a Martial Arts Master and the Old Master has no interest in helping us, what can I do? I can't possibly risk my life to fight against a Martial Arts Master."

His words triggered the scene of what happened in the mansion just now. Vera couldn't help complaining, "I really don't know what my father is thinking. His grandson got injured, and he's turning a deaf ear." "Alas, it's only his grandson!" Salman glanced at his wife and sighed.

Vera's expression darkened as she gnashed her teeth and said, "It must be Felix who said something to Dad again. When we talked with Dad just now, my brother was being such a nuisance, insisting that it would have a bad impact and of great importance, how we needed to investigate properly before making long-term decisions."

"Well, it was the same last time. Keith and Mandell fought over the villa, and the Old Master followed everything that Felix said. In the end, the villa was given to Mandell. After all, he is Director Xu, I am just a chairman. Our positions aren't the same." He deliberately rolled his eyes, silently anticipating his wife's reaction.

His words brought back Vera's unhappy memories. Her expression became colder, and she blurted, "Dad has always liked Felix better. Now that he is older, he is still biased towards his son than his daughter. He'd rather prioritize his son than me."

Exhaling, Salman added purposefully, "There is no other way. After all, Felix can take over the Xu family, whereas you can't."

The more he spoke, the more twisted Vera's face became, rebutting, "No, I have to go back and talk to Dad. I can't let Keith suffer for nothing."

When Salman heard this, he quickly stopped her. "What's the use of going back now? Old Master made us wait for such a long time. He was obviously weighing his decisions. If you return to argue with him, it will only annoy him further. Then, it would be harder to change his mind."

"Then what should we do? Just let it go and let Keith suffer a broken leg for no reason?" Vera shrieked in hysterics.

Salman was silent for a while. Before his wife was on the verge of bursting into anger, a glint flashed in his eyes and he said, "In fact, I do have a plan, but it's just slightly-"

"What plan? Tell me quickly," Vera urged.

Salman parked the car by the roadside and started in a low voice, "The plan is simple. Didn't you just say that Dad values Felix's son more than ours? In this case, let's start with his son then."

"Start with Mandell? How do we start? He has nothing to do with this," Vera asked in confusion.

Salman continued in a low voice, "It doesn't matter. We can create relations. Think about it. If the person whose leg is broken isn't Keith, but Felix's son, Mandell, how would Dad react?"

"He loves Mandell the most. He would definitely fly in a rage and find Fade for revenge," Vera said. Then, she glanced at her husband and said, "So, you plan to attack Mandell, then connect it to Fade's doing?"

Salman quickly shook his head. "We can't do that. It would be too easy to get busted, and it will attract suspicion." "Then what should we do?" Vera asked.

Salman muttered, "Actually, I have an idea. We can make a detour and start from another point of view. I asked someone to investigate Fade who supported the Moo family. He has a relative here in Southzobe City. Then, we can..."

He slowly explained his plan. After Vera heard it, her eyes gleamed as she clapped with approval. "Alright, that's it. This plan is great. We'll take matters into our own hands, and it'll definitely succeed." Salman gazed at his wife and nodded, suppressing a grin of his own. "Then, let's get to work."

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

Three days later at Southzobe University's gate, a gang of trendy youngsters laughed and chatted as they finished their classes, obviously in a good mood. They hopped in a luxury car, and drove to a bar an hour away from the university.

"Alright, we're here." After getting out of the black Mercedes Benz, Mandell tossed the keys to the attendant and headed towards a place called "Forest Bar".

A few young men and women followed behind him. When they saw the bar in front of them, they couldn't help but groan in protest.

"Mr. Mandell, today is your 20th birthday. It's fine if your family doesn't make plans for you, but why do we have to come to a bar like this?"

"That's right, Mr. Mandell. If you wanted to go to a bar, you should at least pick Paradise Bar or Fantasy Bar downtown. This place is a little lame, don't you think?"

"Mr. Mandell is Pascha's grandson, Director Xu's son, and the only successor of the future Xu family. This is embarrassing!"

Listening to his friends' whines, Mandell sighed, "Alright, I'm already in a bad mood. Stop complaining for a second, guys."

"I wanted to have a good time for my 20th birthday too, but Grandpa has just retired. If I throw a grand ceremony now, it would bring bad press. Plus, my dad told me to lay low lately as well, because something might happen."
