“I know that! But this is the Shears’ territory. With so many people around, we can’t do anything to that kid just
yet. Let's wait until after the opening ceremony to give him a proper greeting!” Theodore uttered darkly.
The failed ambush raised the Shears’ suspicion that the Fields Family was behind it and they did whatever they
could to oppress the Fields Family to seek revenge. As one of the Four Major Families, the Fields Family managed
to survive through the Shears’ retaliation but paid an enormous price in doing so. In the end, the Fields Family
had to make an official apology to the Shear Family and made certain compromises in their family business.
Considering the fact that Cynthia was not harmed and that conflicts would not be beneficial to the Shear
Family as well, the two families finally decided to cease fire.
However, the event deepened the grudge between the two families, which was why the Shears extended their
invitation for the opening ceremony to every single family in Springfield City but the Fields Family.
The Fields Family did not intend on attending the ceremony without the invitation, but since the two families.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwere competitors, the potential of the Energy Nurturing Pills was far too big a threat for them to stay away.
To investigate, Theodore decided to sneak into the event venue and remained in a deserted corner, only to be
surprised by the presence of the culprit that caused all the troubles his family had to go through.
Tflew by and the ceremony ended. Leon and Iris stepped down the stage with big grins on their faces, only
to find Gilbert standing and glaring at them in a distance.
“Dad!” The smile on Iris’s face froze as she instinctively bit her lip. She did not expect to see her father at the
event and was caught off-guard.
Her relationship with her father was not all that harmonious, mainly because she despised her stepmother,
Daisy. Since Daisy had not accompanied Gilbert to the ceremony, Iris knew better than to completely ignore
her father.
“Hello, Mister Young. It's been a while.” Leon’s heart skipped a beat as he hurriedly greeted the man before him.
As Iris’s boyfriend, Gilbert was going to be his future father-in-law and he had to remain respectful at
his best effort.
“The two of you? Very well!” Gilbert sneered coldly.
From the very first the saw Leon, he was worried that Leon would somehow trick Iris into dating him. After
witnessing how close the two seemed to be, Gilbert realized that they might have already started dating and was
instantly enraged.
“Leon, cwith me. | need to speak to you alone!” Gilbert snorted and turned to walk outside.
“Dad,” Iris muttered worriedly. She knew that Gilbert had a horrible impression on Leon and her father could not
possibly mean well for calling Leon outside to talk.
“Iris, don’t worry. We were going to have to deal with this at spoint, anyway. I'll go outside for a moment.
Relax. I'm going to be fine,” Leon consoled her, before following Gilbert out.
