Yulia opened her mouth but uttered nothing as she watched the man leave.Geoffrey might be her uncle, but she had never once heard of the man.She had so much to tell her mother. Words that she wouldnât be able to say to the stranger claiming to be her uncle.âYulia, letâs pay our respects!âSkylar took the items from her hands after putting Lola down and set off to work.Yulia whispered words to her mother as she wiped down the tombstone.After everything was done, Skylar faced the tombstone and humbly bowed. âDonât worry, Maâam. Iâll take good care of both Yulia and Lola and give them the happiness they deserve!âYuliaâs heart was warmed by his words. His soft gaze brought tears to her eyes.Lola, who was on the wayside, also hurried to follow in Skylarâs footsteps and paid her own respects. âGrandma, Daddy is back. Lola can be happy now.ââDaddy always appears like Superman on TV when Mommy or I get bullied. Itâs so cool!âBoth parents couldnât help laughing at the girlâs exaggerated account.She was such a joy to have around.Meanwhile, outside the gates.When Geoffrey appeared from around the corner, the bodyguard with the walkie-talkie ran up to him immediately, and said dejectedly, âWe were incompetent, Boss. We allowed the family of three to disturb you.ââYou failed to stop them when thereâs so many of you?âGeoffrey was taken aback.He had assumed the men standing guard to have slacked off when the truth was far different than was expected.Wasnât this far too odd?His group of bodyguards was the elite of the elite. A thousand troops were of no issue to them, let alone a hundred martial artists. Yet, they yielded to the family?Among the three, two were clearly not trained in combat at all.The only possibility left was the young man standing beside Phaedraâs daughter.The young man looked no different from an average person.To think he hid himself so well.âWeâre sorry, sir!âThe bodyguards present all assumed Geoffreyâs anger and admitted to their mistakes.He waved them off. âItâs of no big consequence!âNo matter how powerful that young man was, there was nothing to fear when he stood alone.Before leaving, he glanced back at the graveyard and murmured to himself, âIâm doing this for the sake of the Lucas household, Phaedra. I believe you wonât condemn me for what Iâm going to doâ¦âThe next day arrived in a blink of an eye. It was Leon Sueâs 70th birthday.The old man had been confined to the bed four years ago. All properties under the Sue name were handled by Gale Sue, the Madam of the Sue family.Skylar and Yulia went to visit the old man a while ago and not only drove away the murderous ingrate who bit the hand that feeds them but also cured his illness.The old man then made his grand return at Madam Sueâs birthday banquet and regained control of the Sue family, allowing old employees and partners of the company to regain their confidence in them.Yuliaâs recent anti-blemish cream project was also now in full swing. Anyone who wanted a slice of the pie had to be prepared with generous gifts to curry favor with the elder.When Skylar and Yulia arrived at the Sue family home with Lola in tow at 10 in the morning, the courtyard was already filled with men and women chattering away.
