Adrian stroked his white beard, a look of reflection on his face.
"I can only say that the new generation always surpasses the old. It took me decades to learn the Thirteen Needles, while she has already created the Fourteenth Needle based on it."
"Youth is indeed vibrant. I believe that given time, she will be able to create the Fifteenth Needle as well."
"I suppose I can hope for the restoration of the Edwards family's glory," Adrian said with confidence.
Upon hearing this, Gracie's eyes lit up. She didn't expect Adrian to have such a high opinion of her.
However, she couldn't help but wonder about something. She extended her delicate hand and covered her lips, giggling softly.
Mockingly, she said, "The glory of the Edwards family? Adrian, you seem to have forgotten that you were already expelled from the Edwards family. Even if she restores their glory, what does it have to do with you?"
Adrian's gaze slowly retracted, his head hanging low with a touch of sadness.
Although he had earned respect and important positions within the organization, deep down, as an old man, he hoped that the Edwards family would regret their actions and personally welcome him back.
After drifting abroad for decades, he eventually returned to this land because he couldn't let go of it.
"You might be right," he replied pensively.
"Well then, let's continue watching. Fortunately, I just bet on Cheyenne," he added.
"Wow, that looks exciting over there!"
Mason suddenly blurted out with unrelated words, leaving Eddie, who was preparing to debate, momentarily stunned.
With a calm expression, Eddie replied, "Hmm, let's continue."
Little did he know that Mason would say, "What should we do? I don't feel like competing anymore. How about we go and check on Miss Lawrence?"
"Fine, you win. I might not be able to beat you anyway, so continuing like this would just be a waste of time."
Huh? Can it be done like this?
Eddie's face turned dark as he coldly rejected Mason's frivolous suggestion, "No, we can't. Since it's a competition, we have to take it seriously until the end."
Although he was curious about Cheyenne's situation on the other side as well.
After he finished speaking, Mason muttered with a slight twitch of his lips, "I think, even if we determine a winner between us, we'll still lose in the end to Miss Lawrence."
"Moreover, watching Miss Lawrence's competition seems more interesting than our boring arguments, don't you think?"
Eddie strongly agreed with this statement and replied, "I think so too. When Cheyenne was having surgery, I observed it from the side."
Mason looked envious, casting a hopeful glance, "I envy you. You can watch it up close. So, how is it? Miss Lawrence is beautiful, right?"
As soon as the words left his mouth, Eddie gave him a disdainful look and retorted, "She's pretty, but she only relies on her own abilities!" Even Eddie couldn't help but retort.
Just because he mentioned Cheyenne, Mason chuckled foolishly and quickly explained, raising both hands. "I didn't mean anything else. I was just saying Miss Lawrence is both beautiful and highly skilled. Do you have a crush on her?"
Eddie's face turned red. "Don't talk nonsense. I just see her as a little sister," he protested.
