“Didn’t the three of you promise that he would be fine for ten days? It has only been a few days, but his
condition is already deteriorating,” Lawrence roared at the three alchemists.
“Calm down, Lawrence. You shouldn’t blame the alchemists. Even if they can stabilize Father for ten
days, what’s going to happen after that? From my perspective, we had better start discussing Father’s
funeral arrangements,” Enrique defended the alchemists, as he was the one who hired them, after all.
Suppressing the anger within him, Lawrence threw his brother a cold glance and asked, “Enrique,
didn’t you say that you would bring Jubilante here? How many days has it been since then? Where is
he?”
“Lawrence, Jubilante isn’t someone you can invite over easily. I’m sure you’re aware that alchemists
are few and far between in Ethereal Realm. It’s not easy to hire them, let alone someone like
Jubilante,” Enrique replied in a nonchalant tone, a response that angered Lawrence further.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe latter knew that Enrique didn’t seek out Jubilante at all and had gone to Behemoth Palace in the
northern region instead.
Nevertheless, regardless of how angry he was, Lawrence wasn’t going to strike his brother. At the very
least, not while their father was still alive.
If both of them were to fall out and fight with each other in front of their father, they would end up
becoming the city’s laughingstock.
“Dad, how’s Grandpa doing?”
Right then, Cade entered with Cloud and Jared, a sight that triggered a slight change in Lawrence’s
expression. As for Enrique, he was briefly stunned.
“Dad, I brought this alchemist here to treat Grandpa. Please let them examine him,” Cade added
quickly.
Upon hearing Cade’s words, Lawrence immediately knew what was going on. Hence, he inquired
solemnly, “Where did you find them? Can they cure your grandfather?”
“Don’t worry. These alchemists are from another continent and are extremely skilled,” Cade added.
With that, Cade turned to Jared and Cloud, saying, “Dear sirs, please treat my grandfather.”
Jared nodded before approaching the elderly man with Cloud following behind him. The sight of his
wiry-looking grandfather broke Cloud’s heart. Yet he couldn’t show it on his face.
Lawrence subsequently got to his feet to make way for Jared. However, just as the latter was about to
examine Claudius, Enrique scoffed, “Cade, are you trying to get your grandfather killed by hiring such
greenhorn alchemists? I’ve seen the three of them. They came from the northern region and were
asking around about our family. They must be here to cheat us of our money.”
No sooner had Enrique finished than Yorath added, “It seems that even those from the northern region
know how dimwitted you are, Cade. On a few occasions, you brought in individuals who claim to be
members of our family. All of them were scammers in the end. This time, you actually brought a group
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmof alchemists back. Why do you believe them so easily? Which one of them even looks like one?”
“Yorath, do you kiss your mom with that mouth? You’re such a jerk. How can you talk to Cade that
way?” Miya Seizon scolded with her finger pointing at Yorath’s nose.
She knew that Cade was an honest man who- didn’t know how to scold others. That was the reason
why he didn’t have a comeback to Yorath’s insult.
However, the fact that Cade didn’t fight back didn’t mean Miya wouldn’t. Miya was the feistiest among
the three siblings and wasn’t someone to be trifled with.
“Who are you accusing of having a dirty mouth?
I dare you to say it again,” Yorath snapped.
“I already did. What are you going to do about it?” Miya sneered.
“Miya, you’re nothing but a coward. I challenge you to a fight so that I can clean that dirty mouth of
yours myself!”
When she saw her brother being bullied, Genya jumped into the fray.
