1129 The War Has Started: The Battle of Wits Between Jeanne and Edward

Edward immediately stood up and left, ignoring how angry Old Master Swan was.

Nox, on the other hand, hesitated for two seconds. Although he was hesitating, he felt happy.

Ever since they were young, they had always followed Old Master Swans orders and had never rebutted him. Hence, at that moment, he felt so happy!

He hurriedly got up from the ground and quickly chased after Edward.

Wade looked at his grandson. Before he could call out to Nox, he saw him dashing away at the speed of lightning.

He was so angry that he gritted his teeth. This stinky brat!

Zachary was also furious. He sat back in his chair, his expression unsightly.

After Wade scolded his grandson, he looked at Zacharys expression and quickly comforted him, Old master, Edward is also in a fit of anger. Weve watched him grow up, he wont go astray.

I know. Although Zachary was angry, he knew his sons character very well.

However, he just could not suppress his temper after being talked back to like that today.

Itll be fine when his anger subsides. The most important thing now is how to help the Duncans push the Sanders back, Wade said.

Zachary nodded his head. What Im angry about now is finding out what kind of father Edward sees me as all these years. Ive always thought that I was competent enough. At the very least, compared to my other sons, Ive put more effort into raising and educating him.

Edward understands. Wade said with certainty, Hes just venting it out now. Old Master, you have to understand Edward. Now that he has killed Kingsley, it will be difficult for him to be with Jeanne. Him losing his temper is a good thing too. At least we know what hes thinking now. He has to let it all out because if he doesnt, we really wouldnt know what hell do!

Ive already warned him about his relationship with Jeanne, Zachary said solemnly.

None of us would have guessed that Jeanne was Warrens daughter. Wade also looked helpless. If Jeanne had nothing to do with Warren, this matter would be so difficult to deal with.

Thats why what Im most worried about now is that Edward wont be able to lay his hands on Jeanne.

I understand, Old Master. However, I dont think you should interfere in Edward and Jeannes matters. Edward isnt someone who doesnt care about anything. We should trust him.

Hes my son. I know what hell do. What Im afraid of is that the Duncans dont trust him. Zachary said, Every new sovereign brings his own courtiers. Once the Duncans take the throne, the first thing they have to do is to eliminate those who disagree with them. When that time comes... Its hard to say.

Putting aside the fact that Edward is your son, Edward is still Alexs younger brother. Wade comforted Zachary, So, theres still a chance for the situation to turn around.

I hope so.

Hopefully, nothing unexpected would happen!

Edward returned to Bamboo Garden.

He sat on the sofa without saying a word, and his expression was extremely ugly.

Teddy watched from the side and did not even dare to breathe.

Yesterday, after Finn picked George up, George had not returned home. Teddy had wanted to ask Fourth Master when George would be back, but for some reason, ever since he took care of George, the two of them had spent a lot of time together, and he was a little reluctant to part with George.

However, now that he saw Fourth Masters expression, how could he ask the question?

With that, he stood at the side and watched as Nox quickly ran into the hall.

Why were you walking so fast? Nox sat down beside Edward, panting heavily.

Edward did not reply.

Actually, whats the use of throwing a tantrum at your dad just now? You cant really disobey him anyway, Nox said faintly.

Although it felt good just now, when he thought about how his happiness was built on his brothers pain, he had no choice but to comfort Edward.

Edward remained silent and sat there in the hall.

Nox leaned back on the sofa, looking a lot more relaxed. I told you, you cant fall in love so easily. Look at you. Youve only loved this one woman in your life, yet youre so hurt! I could see that Jeanne was looking at you like she wanted to kill you. The next time we meet, she definitely will not go soft on you
