Super Godfather Ex-wife Begging Me To Get Remarried novel Chapter 302

Chapter 302 Arrival

"Even your father... I mean, Allen Augustine, the patriarch of our family, perished in that brutal pirate attack.

"The aftermath has been devastating. Tourists are terrified. They refuse to sail with us. Our business thus plummeted.

"We have a mere three seaworthy vessels left, and they sit idle, gathering dust. The rest are in the shipyard, and we haven't the funds to mend their broken hulls."

As Brian spoke, his countenance was fraught with palpable distress.

It was truly staggering to witness an ancient lineage reduced to such dire straits.

Osborne had anticipated that the Augustine family's circumstances would be bleak, but the reality surpassed his bleakest expectations!

Osborne thought, "Was this truly an ancient lineage?

Any top-tier affluent family likely lived a far more opulent life than the Augustine family, for instance, the Montague family in Skyefall.

The Montague family was also in the shipping trade, thriving effortlessly. They amassed wealth even in repose and continuously expanded their empire, far outshining the average ancient clan.

But the Augustine family painted a desolate picture.

Forget it. It was no use talking about it!"

In his mind, Osborne escalated the difficulty of the fifth heirloom trial to unprecedented heights.

Disaster was the word that echoed in his mind.

The Augustine family teetered on the brink. They lacked even the funds to repair their ships and had no other means to generate income. How could Osborne restore the Augustine family to its former glory? How could he propel the Augustine family to become one of the top three ancient clans in Dampston?

Osborne was wealthy. Upon completing the fourth trial, Godfather had bestowed upon him a staggering 20 billion dollars.

Moreover, Luna Jewelry and Skyefall Security Services were both lucrative ventures, amassing him an additional 30 billion dollars in cash.

Should he liquidate these assets, it would be sufficient to reverse the Augustine family's fortunes.

Yet, such an act would merely provide a temporary reprieve, not a permanent solution. To truly transform the Augustine family's predicament, Osborne must root out the underlying cause and identify who was targeting the Augustine family.

Osborne was convinced that a formidable force, or perhaps multiple forces, were orchestrating against the Augustine family.

Otherwise, those pirates would not have singled out the Augustine family's cruise ships, nor would Allen, the previous head of the Augustine family, have met his end.

After all, Allen was a Class A- metahuman.

Only by unmasking the masterminds targeting the Augustine family and neutralizing them could the issue be resolved once and for all.

"There's a traitor within the Augustine family!"

Osborne contemplated the first step of the heirloom trial, which tasked him with uncovering the traitor within the Augustine family.

"Tell me about the Augustine family's current strength."

Osborne composed himself and continued to inquire. The more he grasped the Augustine family's situation, the better equipped he would be to address the crisis.

Brian nodded.

"The Augustine family currently boasts three Class A- metahumans, six Class A- martial artists, nine Class B+ metahumans, and twelve Class B+ martial artists."
