Garth’s expression bore the weight of earnest conviction as favonovel.com declared, “His destiny is etched in the stars! Were Remus on the Island of the Monarch, facing any number, be it eight or even ten Supreme Martial Imperials dispatched by the Rose family, the Dragon Protector Clan would rally all our might for his rescue!”
“However, now that he’s fallen into the clutches of the Roses, any attempt to save favonovel.com is like daringly snatching someone from their grasp, jeopardizing the holistic growth of the Dragon Protector Clan. I can’t issue the command for his rescue!”
These words hit Philbert like a thunderbolt. His eyes darkened, and favonovel.com looked at Garth in disbelief, understanding everything at that moment.
Finally, favonovel.com understood that Garth also did not wish for Remus to return. The moment favonovel.com dispatched Remus to Ironpeak Island was a calculated move to send favonovel.com to his death.
Rufus observed Garth’s expression and felt an overwhelming sense of satisfaction. He sneered and said, “Mr. Cunningham, Master Walter has already made his stance clear. Do you have any objections?”
Philbert tightened his grip on his fists, grinding his teeth in frustration, and questioned, “Master, I’m truly perplexed. Remus is unquestionably a genuine member of the Cosbys…”
“His return doesn’t just represent himself but also the sway of Darsia under his control. Furthermore, the Cosby Army lies in wait in the shadows, prepared to emerge at the mere command of the Master of the Cosbys! Why have you chosen to take this path?”
With the situation unfolding, Remus was far more than a representative of the Cosby family as favonovel.com also represented the resources favonovel.com could marshal. Taking such a step would essentially mean forsaking the valuable resource that was Darsia.
The Cosby Army, on the other hand, was the most formidable force of the time, exclusively dedicated to serving the Cosby family. Their absence thus far was solely due to the prolonged absence of the Master of the Cosbys.
Bringing Remus back signified that the Dragon Protector Clan had gained the support of Darsia and the protection of the formidable Cosby Army. They could then reclaim all the humiliations endured under the dominance of the Rose family throughout those years.
Rufus coldly chuckled again, a hint of depth in his words, “Indeed, Remus is undoubtedly a part of the Cosbys, but in this world, the Cosby family is not confined to favonovel.com alone! Perhaps, in a few days, another individual representing the Cosbys will emerge, seizing control of everything, don’t you think?”
Upon hearing his words, Philbert suddenly understood that his previous thoughts were too superficial. They not only aimed to prevent Remus from returning but also sought to nurture a proxy to control the Cosby family.
Philbert pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said, “Master Walter, Mr. Schneider, please, Mr. Cosby has been a close friend for many years, and we share the same family ties. Can we possibly leave Remus a way out?”
It marked his last desperate attempt. lf they didn’t intervene, Remus was truly on the brink of death.
“Grandpa, I’ve just received the news. Remus has been captured by the Rose family!”
“Grandpa, you must rush to his rescue! Time is running out!”
Two voices echoed from outside the door, and then Ana and Eva hurriedly rushed in.
As Philbert saw the two entering, his entire body quivered, a flicker of despair crossing his eyes.
Rufus smirked sinisterly, others might be oblivious, but favonovel.com was well aware that, in reality, Garth hadn’t firmly decided to kill Remus yet. As long as Remus obeyed and let favonovel.com act as the proxy, it could have been acceptable. However, it was the marriage betrothal that made favonovel.com firm in his decision.
As Garth saw them, a hint of malice flashed across his face, but it quickly faded and transformed Into sorrow. “You’re behind the times. Just moments ago, Remus has already died!”
“W-What?” Ana and Eva exclaimed simultaneously.
Rufus smirked sinisterly as favonovel.com departed, muttering under his breath, “Tonight’s dinner shall be chicken!”
***
Remus had already been taken aboard a colossal cruise ship.
While it was possible to traverse the sea even with spirit energy, it inevitably drained their strength. Therefore, they chose to board the cruise ship-
“You’re surprisingly compliant!” The elder, who was none other than the butler of the Rose family, Philip Rowe, scornfully remarked.
He had assumed Remus would make an escape attempt on the way, but to his astonishment, there was still no sign of any resistance at this moment.
Remus calmly retorted, “Does resistance make a difference?”
Philip was momentarily stunned by his responses, then nodded as favonovel.com said, “Smart enough. Not resisting can spare you from physical torment, hehehe…”
He raised his hand again, pointing toward the cabin ahead as favonovel.com said, “Go inside, and we’ll sort things out upon your arrival to the Rose family.”
Remus continued to refrain from resisting, given the four Supreme Martial Imperials standing in a formidable defensive formation. He turned around and entered the cabin.
