As Jennifer listened to the crowd’s discussion, her expression turned icy. Suddenly, she spoke out
loudly. “Everyone, please be quiet. Today, I have brought everyone here to have a serious discussion
with Uncle Oscar about the future direction of our Summers family.”
Upon hearing Jennifer’s furious rebuke, everyone promptly fell silent.
“Jennifer, what would you like to discuss? Feel free to speak your mind in front of the entire Summers
family…” Oscar said calmly.
“Alright. Uncle Oscar, I want to ask you this. Why did you imprison my father and brother? Why did you
kill Mr. Freddie? Are you trying to get our Summers family to join the Demon Seal Alliance? Are you
plotting to take over as the head of the Summers family?”
Jennifer fired off a series of sharp questions. Upon hearing Jennifer’s words, everyone in the Summers
family was taken aback.
“What? Mr. Tyler was arrested? Isn’t he in seclusion?”
“What’s going on?”
“Could it be that Mr. Oscar is planning a rebellion?”
The members of the Summers family quietly discussed among themselves.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtListening to Jennifer’s interrogation, Oscar responded with a faint smile, “Jennifer, I can tell you now. I
locked up your father and brother solely for the development of the Summers family! Our Summers
family relied on magecraft to establish ourselves, yet our overall strength is not particularly formidable.
Not even within the entire southern region do we hold much significance. If we want the Summers
family to grow and prosper, we must seek alliances. What’s wrong with cooperating with the Demon
Seal Alliance? I believe that a significant number of us in the Summers family are interested in
collaborating with the Demon Seal Alliance.”
Jennifer was stunned. She hadn’t expected Oscar to drop all pretenses and admit it outright.
This was beyond her expectations.
“Even if we were to cooperate with the Demon Seal Alliance, it would require the consensus of our
entire Summers family, not your forced confinement of my father and brother, or your reason for killing
Mr. Freddie. Release my father and brother now! If the majority of the Summers family wishes to join
the Demon Seal Alliance, we will not stand in their way.”
Jennifer’s current demand was for Oscar to first release her father and brother.
As for joining the Demon Seal Alliance, once her father was released, there would naturally be a way to
handle it.
“Hahaha, I can hear the little schemes you’re concocting in your mind from here!”
Suddenly, Oscar burst into hearty laughter. Then, he turned to the members of the Summers family and
asked, “I intend to lead the Summers family to join the Demon Seal Alliance. Are you willing to support
me?”
The members of the Summers family exchanged glances, none daring to utter a word.
The situation was unclear, and the members of the Summers family were uncertain about whom to
support.
However, at that moment, a somewhat hunched, thin-framed old man walked in from outside.
“I disagree with joining the Demon Seal Alliance. As the second master of the Summers family, you
should have supported Mr. Tyler’s decision. Yet, unexpectedly, you secretly imprisoned him, intending
to join the Demon Seal Alliance on your own. This is the home of all of us, the Summers family, not just
your personal domain, Oscar…”
The elder’s voice was strong, his eyes filled with anger.
The elder was the chief butler of the Summers family. Although he was not technically a member of the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSummers family, he had served several generations of the family’s masters.
“Mr. Rowland…”
Upon seeing the elderly man, Jennifer felt her heart immediately fill with joy, and her eyes began to well
up with tears.
“Ms. Jennifer, rest assured. I was unaware that such a significant event had occurred in the Summers
family. As long as I’m alive, I won’t allow the Summers family to cooperate with the Demon Seal
Alliance. This is a rule set by the family head, and no one can break it!” Todd Rowland comforted
Jennifer.
When Oscar caught sight of the elderly man entering, his previously calm demeanor vanished from his
face, replaced by an unattractive expression.
“I, too, am opposed to collaborating with the Demon Seal Alliance. We should prioritize the release of
Mr. Tyler before delving into any further discussions.”
“Absolutely, let’s release Mr. Tyler first and then address other issues!”
“Release Mr. Tyler!”
As soon as Todd appeared, the entire Summers family rallied behind Jennifer, offering their
overwhelming support.
It was clear that Todd held a prominent position within the Summers family.
