Chapter 1536

According to legends, it was a treasure that could bestow upon its bearer command all of the great, ancient families.

"Yes." Mr. Riddle Sr. said, suppressing the excitement within as he tried his best to put on a calm front. "Go then. Hurry up. Take the opportunity to find out those who still wish to cooperate with us, as well as those who no longer wish to act in accordance with their ancestor's wishes."

After all, some of the great families had long since vanished without a trace.

Some of the families had lost their genealogies, and while some of the other families might still have them, their descendants or heirs might not be willing to subject themselves to another. Such was why Mr. Riddle Sr. needed to be sure

"I, I got it..." Damien said in disbelief, and though he stumbled, he hurriedly left nonetheless.

Dillon, on the other hand, was wearing a grim expression on his face as he stared at Daniel with envy.

'What the hell is with Daniel's luck?' he thought. 'The daughter he had adopted isn't just a scholar. She also knows medicine, and is in good terms with Governor Wyance. And now, she even got her hands on the Fire Crest?! Looks like, from now on, Daniel's side of the family will be at the forefront, while both Damien and I would have to stand aside!'

Noticing that Dillon was still standing there in a daze, Mr. Riddle Sr. could not help but to urge him. "What are you doing, just standing there? Even Dexter had already gone off to help, so stop lollygagging!"

'These two are not as skilled as Dexter when it comes to reading the room. Dexter had already brought his sons out to greet the guests, and that too without even asking,' Mr. Riddle Sr. thought.

"Got it..." Dillon snapped back to reality and pulled Karen over, so that they could get their children to greet the guests right away.

Meanwhile, Preston was already in the groove, and Edwin, using Preston's name, got in touch with a few online merchants they had long planned to cooperate with.

Everyone in the Riddle family were extremely busy. Many more had initially wanted to hold extended conversations with Nicole, but Jared's gaze scared them all away.
