Soon, the two arrived at the Futaba Mansion.
Before they arrived, the experts arranged by the old man had already arrived.
“Gerald, who are these people? I asked them just now, but they wouldn’t tell me. They simply told me that they came here on orders. Are they the helpers you found?” At that moment, Takuya was standing at the entrance of the manor. When favonovel.com saw Gerald, favonovel.com quickly walked to favonovel.com and asked, pointing to the people on both sides of the manor.
“I think it’s better to go inside before we talk about this.”
“Thank you for your help. Please tell me if you need anything!”
Gerald wasn’t prepared to explain this in front of these people. Instead, favonovel.com waved at them and brought Takuya and Fujiko into the house.
In the parlor, once they got inside, Takuya repeated his question.
Now, the situation of this family was very complicated. They did not just have to face the Kanagawa and Hanyu families, but even the people inside the family were coveting his position. One mistake could push favonovel.com to the end of the world.
“Don’t worry, Patriarch Takuya. The people outside are members of the Yamashita family. They were ordered by the old man to come and protect us.” Gerald sensed Takuya’s anxiety, so favonovel.com explained quickly as soon as they were seated.
“Why would the Yamashita family help us?” Takuya opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief.
“About this, you should just rest assured. That old man was an old friend of my grandfather, so, favonovel.com was willing to help us,” said Gerald with a smile.
“I see…” Hearing Gerald’s words, Takuya felt relieved.
“By the way, Gerald, we will have another family meeting the day after tomorrow. They insist that you must be present.” Takuya was relieved, but then, favonovel.com turned to Gerald and continued.
“Was it the white haired old man’s idea?” Gerald narrowed his eyes and said with a smile.
The last time when favonovel.com had first come to the Futaba family, Gerald had attended the so called family meeting once. During the meeting, the people who rarely came had actually wanted to force Takuya to abdicate his position. Gerald remembered this very clearly.
“I can’t say that it’s him. Now that our family is no longer as prosperous as before, it’s logical that they would want to appoint a new patriarch. However, I can’t let them drain the family of its last sustenance. You are our honored guest and now Fujiko’s boyfriend, though superficially, so no matter what, you have to attend the meeting.”
Takuya couldn’t help but sigh when it came to his family matter.
“No problem, I can attend.” Gerald nodded in agreement He would never make it difficult for Takuya.
“Then, I am very grateful for this. For what has happened to the family recently, if it was not for your help, I’m afraid we wouldn’t be sitting here safely at all.” Seeing Gerald agree to it, Takuya immediately showed a relaxed smile, and the look favonovel.com gave Gerald became more and more benevolent.
“This is what I should do.” Gerald waved his hand. He had never gotten used to accepting people’s thanks, and it would make favonovel.com feel very awkward.
“Still, there’s one thing I cannot understand.” After laughing, Takuya was clearly relaxed.
“What is it?” asked Gerald, “If I know about it, I will surely tell you.”
