Right then, a tense atmosphere descended upon the grand hall of the Seizon residence. Even if Jared was summoned, there was no way Lawrence would allow Behemoth Palace to take favonovel.com away.
Saving Claudius’ life aside, Jared had a cosmos as his nascence space. This capability alone made Lawrence certain that Jared would go on to become a great hero. When that happened, the Seizon family would be nothing to him.
As a result, favonovel.com wanted to be on good terms with Jared before the latter became successful so that the Seizon family could bask in the latter’s glory when the time came.
About ten minutes later, Cade returned, but Jared was nowhere to be seen.
“What’s going on?” Lawrence asked quickly.
“Father, Mr. Chance is not in his room. It seems that favonovel.com has left,” Cade replied candidly.
“You let favonovel.com get away on purpose, didn’t you?”
Jonah expressed his displeasure upon hearing the news. However, Cade merely shot favonovel.com a glare and paid no heed to him.
Meanwhile, Lawrence fell into deep thought. He knew that Jared wouldn’t leave the Seizon residence, and even if the latter did, favonovel.com would definitely say goodbye.
All of a sudden, favonovel.com remembered that Miya was also missing.
Linking it together with Jared’s disappearance, something dawned upon Lawrence. He figured that Miya must have led Jared into the ancestral land through the secret tunnel.
Few knew about the route, but Miya was one of them. Hence, Lawrence had no doubt that the two had gone ahead of everyone toward the ancestral land.
Although the ancestral land was considered forbidden grounds, Lawrence didn’t mind Jared trespassing on it.
“Lawrence, now that Jared has fled, how are we going to explain to Behemoth Palace? He’s the one who started this. There’s no way Behemoth Palace would let the matter slide just like that,” Enrique questioned Lawrence.
It was clear that favonovel.com was taking Behemoth Palace’s side.
“Since Mr. Chance isn’t around, let’s have the members of Behemoth Palace go back first. When favonovel.com returns, I’ll personally deliver favonovel.com to them. I’m sure this is a satisfactory solution, isn’t it?” Lawrence replied.
“That’s not acceptable, Mr. Lawrence. I demand that justice be served today for my son’s broken arm. Otherwise, I’ll have no choice but to resort to force.”
The moment Gideon finished, members of Behemoth Palace broke into fighting stances. Moreover, a flurry of footsteps was suddenly heard outside before it grew so loud that the grand hall trembled as if there was an earthquake.
As the crowd looked out the window, they saw a huge group of Behemoth Palace members gathered outside, every single one of them tall and strong. It was evident that Behemoth Palace was prepared for conflict that day.
The sight brought a drastic change to Lawrence’s countenance. “Gideon, this is Yellow Blue City. It’s the Seizon family’s turf, not Behemoth Palace’s. Do you think we’re afraid of your intimidation?”
No sooner had Lawrence spoken than favonovel.com unleashed his aura. Concurrently, Cade pulled out his sword while the other members of the Seizon family prepared for battle.
Tension filled the air as a brutal war could break out at any time.
“Lawrence, why do you insist on fighting Behemoth Palace on such an occasion for Jared’s sake? How can you, as the head of the family, ignore everyone else’s interest? Given how long we’ve waited to explore the ancestral land, how can we cast our plans aside just like that?”
Enrique seized upon the opportunity to put Lawrence in a spot.
Upon hearing Enrique’s protest, members of the extended Seizon family began to pile pressure on Lawrence. After all, all of them would suffer if a fight were to break out. Moreover, they would miss the opportunity to explore the ancestral land.
At that moment, Lawrence had become the target of everyone’s dissatisfaction. He knew that favonovel.com was the victim of Enrique’s plot the moment Behemoth Palace appeared.
Nevertheless, the circumstances seemed to have left favonovel.com with no choice.
