At that moment, Andrew and Dn had indeed arrived at the Wright estate.


    Dn chuckled and said, "You know, my mom''s side is also Wright. So why is there such a huge gap between me and their Wrights?"


    Andrew joked, "Maybe you Wrights and Quinton''s Wrights were the same family 500 years ago! Why don''t you try iming some family connection?"


    Dn pulled a face. "Mr. Lloyd, even if we were family five centuries ago, that''s not gonna help me now."


    Andrewughed. "Then stop daydreaming and enjoy your regr life. When you''ve seen more of the world, you''ll realize that the Five Apex Families aren''t as untouchable as they seem.


    "Holtrien has tons of wealthy families. The truly top-tier elite ns and noble houses-those are the ones really worth looking up to!"


    Dn nodded seriously. "I believe it. As long as I stick with you, Mr. Lloyd, I''ll see it all someday."


    Soon, the two were seated in the grand hall of the Wright estate.


    Kevin sat across from them, his face dark and stormy. "Andy, what disaster are you bringing to the Wrights this time?"


    Andrew raised an eyebrow. "Wow, you really are psychic. Because yeah, I am here to deliver bad news-really, really bad news."


    Kevin''s eyelid twitched, and he looked like he was one second away from swearing out loud. Ever since bing sworn brothers with Andrew, the Wrights had been gued by one disaster after another.


    Grand Viper''s two assassins had killed Wright family members, and then Grand Viper himself had attacked the Wright estate gates, nearly injuring Kevin.


    Moreover, all of it was somehow tied to Andrew.


    Kevin could not help wondering if Quinton was right—maybe Andrew was stirring the pot behind the scenes, manipting everything to spark a war between the Wrights and Grand Viper.


    Nheless, suspicion was one thing. He had no real evidence.


    Tora, the Wright family''s head of security—and a fighter nearly at the martial king level—let out a cold snort from nearby. "Alright, Mr. Lloyd. What exactly is this ''really bad'' news?"


    As the Wright family''s top fighter, he was not particrly afraid of Grand Viper. On the contrary, he had always wanted to eliminate that old bastard to preserve the Wright family''s reputation.


    Andrew sighed dramatically. "It''s serious. Like, very serious. But before I drop the bomb, Kevin, you and your inner circle should mentally prepare yourselves."


    Seeing how solemn and theatrical Andrew was being, Kevin''s heart dropped, and his face turned grime Even Tora and the other senior. members of the Wrights looked uneasy, momentarily caught off guard.  s?novel


    The family had already been through a stormy seasontely.


    Was something even worse on the horizon?


    Sure, the Wrights still had deep reserves-cards they had not revealed yet. However, even the strongest walls could not stand forever against wave after wave of bad news.


    As everyone stared at him in tense silence, Andrew cleared his throat and delivered his words with deep grief. "Kevin! My godson, Quinton-your very own flesh and blood! That bastard has done something unforgivable! He''s a


    disgrace to the heavens, guilty of the


    worst treachery, a monster who


    deserves a thousand deaths, a


    walking curse, universally hated by


    man and god alike-"


    Kevin ran out of patience and waved his hand frantically. "Enough, enough! Andy, you''re still young, why the hell are you talking like some ancient windbag, rambling without getting to the point? Just tell me straight-what has my son Quinton done now?"


    Andrew stopped and said seriously, "Quinton has betrayed the Wrights and is


    conspiring with Rafael, Mosby, and Grand Viper!"
