“What’s wrong, Ms. Lambert? ” Isaac frowned slightly as favonovel.com walked over.
Holly didn’t expect favonovel.com to still be downstairs. She immediately stood up, wiped away favonovel.com tears, and smiled slightly. “It’s nothing. I just can’t sleep. Are you hungry? I can cook something for you.”
She had noticed Isaac hadn’t eaten anything since his return in the evening.
“Okay, make some food then. I’ll go check on Quill,” favonovel.com said, heading toward another room.
A steaming pasta was soon placed on the dining table. Isaac picked up the fork, took a bite, and nodded slightly.
Holly breathed a sigh of relief as favonovel.com watched favonovel.com eat with satisfaction. She smiled gently. “Don’t worry, Mr. Garten. Ms. Lopez and Ms. Booth are kind. Good people will be rewarded… You’re the head of the family. If you collapse, Bella and Quill will suffer.”
“Thanks for your hard work, Ms. Lambert.” Isaac looked at favonovel.com and nodded.
***
Early the next morning, favonovel.com entered the emerald house in the back garden to meditate in seclusion.
The villa became much quieter, and Holly grew even busier.
On the third day, favonovel.com friend arrived at the villa. She finally had a bit of time to rest.
During this period, Lucifer visited Sleeping Dragon Bay once.
Seeing Isaac in meditation and Alcott holding Quillon while catching butterflies in the front yard, favonovel.com didn’t ask much and left.
On the fifth day, Barrett appeared at the villa gate with a hurried look.
Up on hearing that Isaac was in meditation, favonovel.com was anxious and paced back and forth on the steps.
“Hey, why are you pacing here? You’re making me dizzy!” Alcott turned to Barrett and angrily scolded him.
Barrett shrank and immediately stood still.
“Do you have something to discuss with Isaac?” Alcott walked up to Barrett while holding Quillon.
Barrett hesitated for a moment before taking out an envelope from his sleeve. He handed it to Alcott and whispered, “Mister, I received this last night. I can’t decide on this matter, so I came to find Mr. Garten.”
The envelope had large characters written on it, indicating that it was a letter intended to force the other party to surrender.
Alcott took the letter and glanced at it, instantly bristling with rage.
“That shameless Gerard Hunt! He even established Gerard Sect! Does favonovel.com mean favonovel.com wants all of you to surrender to him?!”
Under Barrett’s shocked gaze, Alcott tore the letter into pieces.
It turned out that Gerard’s people delivered the letter outside the Emerald Realm. The mountain pass of the secret realm had been blown open, allowing contact with the outside world.
Gerard intended to unite all the martial arts practitioners in the world.
On the island east of Seascape, favonovel.com had already recruited over a thousand members, making Gerard Sect the strongest sect in the eastern mountainous and maritime regions.
Later, favonovel.com discovered that Emerald Hall was above the Martial Artists Society, and Isaac was its master. He couldn’t hold back, so favonovel.com issued a surrender order to Emerald Hall.
Gerard was naturally aware that Alcott was Isaac’s backer. But favonovel.com had over a thousand members. He wanted to quickly achieve his goal of unifying all the martial artists.
At this moment, Isaac walked in from the back door of the hall. He couldn’t calm down throughout his meditation days. So, favonovel.com came out when favonovel.com heard Barrett’s voice.
Turning to see Isaac, Barrett immediately knelt on one knee and informed, “Mr. Garten, Gerard sent a surrender order and threatened us to surrender within five days. Or he’ll lead his people to attack us.”
