“No! I won’t agree to that! Grandpa, it’s too big a price to pay to sacrifice so many people and what we’ve built for the past hundreds of years! I won’t be at peace even if I manage to leave Springfield City!” Cynthia

shook her head and rejected Benedict’s idea.

“But-” Benedict wanted to try and convince Cynthia but was interrupted immediately.

“That’s enough, Grandpa! I’ve decided that I’m not leaving Springfield City, even if it means the death of me!

Cynthia said with determination.

“But you,” Benedict was rendered helpless seeing how determined she was.

Brad was at a crossroads as he would have to sacrifice his daughter or his father no matter what.

Naturally, they were not the only ones struggling; the other Shears all fell into silence in despair.

In the afternoon, the Fields began preparing for the wedding and sent out invitations to all members of the elite society in Springfield City to participate in the wedding between Theodore and Cynthia.

The Fields and the Shears were always competitors and it was common knowledge for all the other families in Springfield City, so none of them ever expected the two families to marry their direct descendants.

The news of the wedding soon spread, stirring chaos all around Springfield City.

The next morning, Cynthia sat sorrowfully before her dressing table with a blank look in her eyes as she felt her heart dying.

Just then, Harvey stepped into the room and was devastated when he saw how upset Cynthia was.

“Cynthia, this is all my fault. If I knew this would happen, I should’ve let you go to Seacove City with Leon,” Harvey said guiltily.

Cynthia was going to travel to Seacove City with Leon a few days ago but was stopped by Harvey and Benedict. If Harvey snuck Cynthia out at the time, none of these would have happened.

Cynthia’s eyes brightened up slightly at the mention of Leon’s name. She shook her head and said, “Harvey, no one expects this to happen. It’s not your fault. Don’t beat yourself up over it.”

“Cynthia, should I call Leon? He is almost in the Advanced Overlord State now and he might be able to resolve this,” Harvey said hesitantly.

Though he did not want his sister to be in a complicated love triangle with Leon and Iris, it would be much worse to marry Cynthia to a monster like Theodore.

“Forget it! Leon is outnumbered by the Lapwoods and if he gets involved, he’ll die,” Cynthia said bitterly.

She only agreed to the marriage to protect her family and Leon; if Leon hurried back from Seacove City and challenged the Fields, the Shears, and Leon would all suffer and that was the last thing she wanted to see.

“But,” Harvey muttered.

“That’s enough! I’m begging you, Harvey. Don’t tell Leon about this. I don’t want him to get into trouble,” Cynthia pleaded.

“But, fine!” Harvey sighed and gave up on calling Leon.
