Kathleen tidied up her room a little and after settling down in the ship. Then, she made her way to her grandfather's room.

At that moment, Jarvis was helping Jordan to make the bed. Jordan was sitting on the single sofa in his room, staring blankly at the ceiling.

When Jarvis saw Kathleen entering, he said respectfully, "Young Lady."

Kathleen nodded and said somewhat apologetically, "Master Yant, I'm so sorry for implicating you this time. I am afraid that you will not be able to return to your division anytime soon..."

Jarvis shook his head. "Young Lady, you don't need to apologize to me. It's my duty to protect Lord Fox no matter where I am." Jarvis then added, "As for returning to my division, I'm too embarrassed to do so anyway. What's more, Julian's whereabouts are still unknown. The division sent him here to take over my duties and stay with the Fox family. Now that he's disappeared, I don't know how I'd face them."

Kathleen said, "Now that I think about it, Mr. Larson's probably in Young Master Wade's hands."

Jarvis nodded, agreeing with her words. "I think so too. I heard that Porter Waldron, the lord of the Ten Thousand Armies, had always regarded the Wade family as the enemy who killed his parents. In the past, Porter put on a big show and had his subordinates bring coffins all the way to slaughter the Wade family. In the end, he was recruited as Charlie's subordinate. It's obvious that Porter is in no way Charlie's opponent."

Jarvis went on, "It's said that Porter is an eight-star martial artist. If that's the case, then Young Master Wade must be an expert of the Dark Realm. Perhaps even stronger."

Kathleen nodded in understanding. "You don't have to worry too much, Master Yant. I can see that Young Master Wade is a man who can draw a clear line on whom or what to hate or love. Mr. Larson didn't do anything to him, so I'm positive he won't hurt Mr. Larson." Jarvis sighed. "Let's hope so!"

Kathleen then turned to her grandfather, who looked quite depressed and melancholic. She coaxed him gently," Grandpa, what Eldest Uncle did has already happened. I know it's hard, but you have to try to accept it and get over it. Let's avoid dwelling on unpleasant things so we won't become depressed."

Jordan, however, let out a laugh of

าวนะว

self-deprecation before saying bitterly, "You had to flee to the Middle East because of me, Kathleen. As your grandfather, feel very ashamed. If I died just now, it'd be a great relief to you and

Yant. Your eldest uncle waster

n't make

things difficult for you..."

As Jordan said that, sorrow colored his glum gaze. "Now, both of you had to escape with me. If he can't find you, he'll definitely be resentful. I'm the one who dragged you both into this awful situation..."

Kathleen was quick to cut her grandfather off. "Grandpa, you mustn't think like that! Even if you are really gone, Eldest Uncle won't let my family off so easily."

Jordan sighed and muttered regretfully, It's said that the heir of the family should be established when they're young. Had I managed to see through my son's rebellious nature, I wouldn't have made him the family heir. This is truly my biggest failure!"

A flash of determination struck him.

He raised his voice and said, "Kathleen, you must find a way to get closer to Young Master Wade in the future! Before I die, I'll leave you a will designating you as the heir to the Fox family. At that time, you can ask Young Master Wade to help you. If he assists you in taking back the Fox family, you can be the new

head!"

At this, Kathleen laughed. "Oh, Grandpa! Young Master Wade wouldn't want to get involved in this mess. Otherwise, he wouldn't have arranged for us to go to the Middle East for a while to avoid the limelight."

"That's right..." Jordan sighed, slightly frustrated and. "Perhaps he thinks the conditions that I offered are not good enough. Twenty percent of the Fox family's assets must still be too little."

As he spoke, his eyes suddenly lit up. He looked at Kathleen and asked excitedly," Kathleen, is Young Master Wade married? If he's willing to help, I can give him the entire Fox family as a dowry. He wouldn't refuse, right?"

Kathleen was stunned at first. She

quickly understood the meaning behind her grandfather's words. Feeling slightly ashamed of his ideas, she said in a reluctant whisper, "Grandpa, what nonsense are you saying...? Young Master Wade's already married." "Married?" Jordan repeated, curious" Which young lady from which family did he marry?"

Kathleen said, "His wife is from the Wilson family from Aurous Hill, but that family is just a poor down-and-out household in Aurous Hill. Their family's entire assets are just a little over one hundred million Oskian dollars, but they've been liquidated as the family's gone bankrupt." Jordan had a horrified expression as he blurted out in indignation, "This... How can this be?! How could the dignified young master of the Wade family and the grandson of the Acker family marry a girl from such a poor family?"
