As he heard the words.

Killian's eyes went bright.

The shadows were swept away, his face was full of joy, he bowed and turned to leave.

After Killian left.

Carter was silent for a few seconds, then glanced at the closed gate of the temple.

Then he said softly, "Mom, we are going to prepare the coffin now. Don't you think it's too early?"

Old Madame Hughes, who had her eyes closed to chant, opened them.

Carter glanced slantingly with his eyes, "Are you questioning me?"

"I don't dare!"

Carter's face changed immediately, and said in horror, "How dare I question Mom? I am just worried."

"Stop worrying!"

Old Madame Hughes scolded, she was confident. She straightened her upper body proudly, and stared at the golden Buddha statue, "The Powell family, the Long Thriving Noble Family, do you really think they would regard the life of a member of the tribe as nothing? Our Hughes family and the Powell family are only differing with a little of prestige for a thousand years, but this is enough to have the Powell family to be overwhelming and kill Jack!"

As he spoke, Old Madame Hughes glared at Carter and said, "That's what I said!"

"I, I see." Carter answered panicking.

On the other side.

In the small courtyard.

The light was dim.

The autumn wind was blowing.

George's leg was still wrapped in gauze, his injury recovered, allowing him to walk with difficulty, but not to run like he used to.

But at this time George was holding the bottle, full of alcohol.Content rights belong to .

Raising his head and letting out a long burp, he looked at Ivy next to him with a drunken smile, "Ivy, it has changed, everything has really changed..." Although he was laughing, the melancholy and disappointment between the words was extremely strong.

Ivy's eyes flickered, holding the red wine in her hand, she was feeling a little drunk.

But the little sense of reason that was left made her understand what George said.

Unable to help, her beautiful face also showed a lonely color.

"Killian is now the treasure of grandma. With grandma's support, Killian will definitely be able to overpower Jack and become the head of the family."

George raised his head and took a sip of wine, and said drunk, "It's ridiculous, we were not too far away from Killian, we were still longing for the position of the head, but now it's all different, Killian suddenly gained the love of our grandmother, he can go in and out of grandmother's temple freely. In the future, Killian will really rise up."

After a pause, George glanced at Ivy, "This kind of treatment, in the past, only you would enjoy in the entire Hughes family."

When she heard the words.

Ivy's tender body trembled, and a spiteful color suddenly appeared in her beautiful eyes.

It lasted three seconds.

She smiled bitterly, "What can I do? I finally managed to please grandma. I also planned everything in the entertainment industry, but in the end I was defeated by Jack that bastard. All our plan has failed, I can survive like this, it's a great fortune already."

"Seems that you're being jealous."

George raised his eyebrows and grinned strangely.

After seeing Ivy's face darken.

He hurriedly comforted, "But it doesn't matter what we have been through, as long as we hold on to our brother. As long as Killian becomes the head of the family, we will still be standing at the right side. Killian will never treat us badly. Yes, look at that trash Archer. Didn't he also compete with Patrick for the position of family head? Just because of the strong blood relationship with Patrick, now he is still living a good life."

Ivy nodded, and drank all the wine in her glass, then she smiled sweetly, "You are right, but it will still be a while before Killian is the head of the family, I can't wait for the drama that will happen tonight, as soon as that bastard is dead, we can sit back and relax and wait for Killian to ascend to the throne!"

"Yes! Killing one person of the Powell family, that bastard was really bold enough, he really thinks that with the protection of his father, he can go against the law? He doesn't know that there are more powerful people outside his circle!"

George laughed with an exuberant sensation, "I heard that the bastard has already gone to the meeting room with Mr. Ward. I guess we will get the news of his death soon, hahaha... I am so happy, I guess this time even the head can't keep the bastard safe anymore, otherwise since the Powell family has been in our Hughes family for such a long time, why would the head keep hiding it from everyone, and take care of them all by himself?"

"Hahaha..." Ivy also laughed happily, "I guess the family head also knows the attitude of our Hughes family towards Jack. Jack that bastard has caused such a disaster. The family head has always regarded Jack as a treasure. I guess he can't keep his dignity anymore, so he secretly welcomed the Powell family. This time since the Powell family personally came forward, that bastard must die without a doubt!" Clang!

While laughing, the two of them seemed to be spiritually connected, clinking their glasses and drinking.

Like George and Ivy thought, the whole Hughes family had the same thought tonight.

The Powell family, compared to Hughes family, was not far behind.

Such an existence.

A life, that was extremely precious!

Blood for blood was the iron law of all wealthy families!

What's more, Patrick concealed everyone from the beginning to the end, and receiving the Powell family all alone, which made everyone convinced that Jack would die.

If it could be resolved, if it was not for the owner feeling his dignity was lost, why not make a big announcement and make it public?

For a moment, the atmosphere in the Hughes family was filled of gloat.

The death of just one person was nothing unusual for the Hughes family.

But the death of an heir of the Hughes family, a child of the Hughes family head, a person who was regarded as bastard by the Hughes family, that was worthy of "drinking and cheering for"! Countless eyes were staring at the meeting room.

Presumably waiting for the "good news"!

In front of the meeting room.

When the anxious Jack and Mr. Ward rushed to the meeting room.

Both of them were taken aback.

Jack was sitting in a wheelchair, his eyes sluggishly scanning the people in the room.

This atmosphere... something was wrong!

Before coming here, he was mentally prepared, and even thought about any reaction from the Powell family towards him.

But now.

They were looking at each other, as if time and space were still.

Until Jack's gaze fell on Hana at the very end, his dull eyes finally showed a hint of coldness.

Mr. Ward who was behind the wheelchair was also surprised.

But compared to Jack's inability to contain his emotions, Mr. Ward quickly adapted.

He raised his eyes to Patrick on the throne, showing a questioning look.

But Patrick nodded slightly.

In the next second.

Patrick pointed to Jack indifferently and said, "Jack, shouldn't you greet them?"

With that, he pointed to Kerry who was in the main guest chair.

"This is the sixth master of the Powell family and the leader of this incident from the Powell family!"

Powell family... master Kerry?!

Jack was shocked.

He took a deep look at Kerry.

The power between the eyebrows was like a panic stricken mountain, giving high pressure to others.

Jack felt his throat tighten with such pressure.

This person's status in the Powell family should not be low.

The Hughes family, who paid attention to filial piety, even his father had to hold up the only elder.

What was more, it was the Powell family that had prospered for thousands of years.

To be the leader in handling the lives of the Powell family, his status and identity were sufficient to prove.

"I am disabled legs and can't get up. I hope to forgive me. Jack bows to Kerry."

Jack didn't hesitate for too long, and showed a respectful fist gesture to Kerry in a panic.

However.

Just as he spoke.

The solemn and silent Kerry suddenly... smiled kindly!0000000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
