He was going as far as to harm their children and grandchildren.

"Jens, the Ares family is charitable. Even if someone plotted something against the Areses, at best, we should deal with them following the principle of an eye for an eye. Taking revenge on their entire family is too cruel."

Jenson stared at Jacob coldly and said, "Grandpa Jacob, don't you know that if you don't pluck the weed from its root, it'll certainly grow back?"

After saying his piece, Jenson decided to take his leave.

Jacob panicked and immediately staggered forward. He pleaded with him anxiously, "Jens, if anything unfortunate were to happen to the other branches tonight, do you think you can attend the Ares family's inheritance ceremony tomorrow in a calm and composed manner? I'm telling you, if you don't save them today, your morality and conduct will be tainted. You won't be able to convince the masses with your words once you're the person in charge of the Ares family."

Jenson stopped and turned his head to look at Jacob, appearing calm and collected as always.

"Do you think I wanted to be the Ares family's heir?"

Jacob swallowed his saliva again. He never expected that Jenson would be so indifferent toward vanity at such a young age. Unfortunately, his indifferent state of mind toward all aspects of life had made it impossible for them to grasp his shortcomings.

Jenson stepped closer to him again, and his voice became even colder when he said, "Also, even if something happens to the other family branches tonight, do you think they'll speak up about it? They'll merely quietly hide their missing fingertips.

Otherwise, I'll find out who were the murderers who planned to have me killed."

Jacob trembled and immediately fell to the ground.

Jenson squatted down and stared at Jacob while saying, "What's the matter with you, Grandpa Jacob?"

Jacob tried to calm his mind before looking up. Then, he pleaded with Jenson, "Jens, all of the Ares family members from the other branches are people with capabilities as well. But your great-grandpa made you the successor, so they're surely somewhat sullen about it. They merely didn't want you to become the next heir and didn't plan on harming you. Is there a need for you to get rid of every last one of them? Rest assured, I'll certainly help you find out who was the one plotting to harm you behind your back and have them give you an explanation."

Jenson gave it a thought and said, "Since Grandpa is begging me so sincerely, then there's no reason for a junior like me to be disrespectful. Okay then, I'll follow you and we'll go take a look." Jacob's eyes immediately flashed with a cunning light.

Meanwhile, Jenson could see his sly expression from the corner of his eyes. A sneer appeared on the corner of his lips.

Jacob walked ahead to lead the way while Jenson was waving his hand toward the person hiding behind him in the dark. A few dark shadows were flashing on the surface of his wristwatch. Jacob took Jenson to the third Ares branch family's house which was also James' house in Rose Garden. At this moment, a group of assassins wearing black masks were in the courtyard with all of James' family members tied up. They all had blades in their hands, but they were barely budging.

When Jenson walked in, he said in a cold tone," Hmm? So you guys were waiting for me to come to begin the show?"

When the assassins saw Jenson, they immediately surrounded both Jacob and Jenson.

Jacob pretended to panic. "What are you people doing? Jens, quick, think of a way to get rid of them."

Jenson was not at all in a hurry and scoffed. "Grandpa Jacob, weren't you just trying to lure me out here with your acting so they could get me instead?"

Jacob pretended to be righteous and said, "What are you saying, Jens? Grandpa's a victim as well."

Jenson replied, "Oh, is that so? Since that's the case, then let's wait for them to cut off your finger first."

The assassin said, "Stop talking nonsense. We'll cut yours first." Then, he lifted the sharp blade and waved it toward Jenson.

It was a battle between a dozen assassins and Jenson.

Jenson was getting somewhat tired of dealing with all of them.

Then, Jacob hid at the side, and one of the assassins went over to pretend to seize him.

Jacob and James were shedding crocodile tears as they pretended to cheer Jenson on, "You must be careful, Jens! You can't get disabled because of them as you know very well an Ares heir cannot have any disability."

Jenson spat out the words, "I think both you grandpas should take care of yourselves."

Jacob and James glanced and smiled at each other. They were both ecstatic about their perfectly executed plan.

However, the situation began to take a turn.

One of the assassins suddenly began to turn on them and dashed toward Jacob. A blade was lifted into the air and slashed down, making Jacob's fingertips fall to the ground with blood oozing out of it. "Ahhh!" A terrifying shriek instantly sounded from Rose Manor.

James' facial expression turned horrified at the scene. "Why is this happening?"

Jenson scoffed. "Hmph. Grandpa Jacob, perhaps you didn't anticipate this. But you've neglected a greater danger when you were pursuing something feudal."
