hapter 362 The Stewart Family’s Secret
Lionel knew Marilyn very well.
This woman was able to remain at the helm of her family for a long time precisely because she was very headstrong.
Lionel and Marilyn were sarcastically aiming jabs at each other when Saul and Jessica suddenly came looking for them. They ran over here hurriedly as if they were here for something urgent.
“Dad! Something terrible has happened!” Saul said on the top of his voice. However, he paused the moment he noticed that Marilyn was also present.
Saul did not elaborate further. Despite everything, he still had some tact. There were some things that other people should not hear about.
The Stewarts and the Masseys were close, but family matters must be kept within the family, not brought up in front of anyone outside of it.
“What happened for you to yell like that? You’re the head of the Massey family now, Saul. You should be more even–tempered. You shouldn’t yell like that just because something has happened,” Lionel said.
“Got it, Dad.” Saul nodded.
“Okay, tell me. What’s wrong?” Lionel asked after calming himself down.
“Uh…” Saul turned to look at Marilyn
Noticing how worried Saul looked, Lionel got up immediately and said, “Let’s talk somewhere. else. If there’s nothing else, Marilyn, I’ll have to bid you goodbye here. I won’t be able to see you off.”
Lionel did not want Marilyn to learn about the Massey family’s private affairs, so he asked her to leave.
“The Masseys are a respectable family, right? Why are you shooing me out of the room?” Marilyn jabbed deliberately.
She did not expect Lionel to ignore the sarcastic remark completely. He had left the table promptly, Saul and Jessica behind him.
Looking at how this unfolded, Marilyn realized that the Masseys might have encountered some problems. Saul would not look so panicked otherwise.
Would the Masseys be able to avert this crisis? No one knew yet as of now.

Marilyn nodded. He was correct. Caspian must have held a certain position in the army. It seemed that Shadow Gate was not totally useless. They could still uncover some aspects of
Caspian’s past.
Everything concerning the army was confidential, though, so it was within reason that they had failed to dig deeper.
“His past is getting more and more surprising by the day. No matter what, he can’t stop the Stewarts from rising again. He can’t continue to corrupt Willow further, either. We must think of some way to drive him out of the city,” Marilyn said solemnly.
“We’re almost here. I’ll take my leave for now.” The masked man parked the car before getting
out.
“Fabian, you’ll always be a member of the Stewart family!” Marilyn called at Fabian’s retreating back.
Fabian paused before disappearing among the people in the street.
He was Marilyn’s adopted grandson, who had lived in Stewart Residence for a while at a young age. Then, he left the residence to pursue his studies in many places and eventually became a traditional martial arts fighter.

He later joined Shadow Gate. He was formidable and was one of the best fighters among his
peers.
Looking at Fabian’s retreating back, Marilyn felt nostalgic. This child had grown up to become someone completely different from before. Now, Fabian seemed to lack the emotions of a human.
He was adopted, but Marilyn treated him with importance nevertheless.
She got out of the car. Stewart Residence stood there, not far away. She did not pause in her tracks for too long but instead made her way to the residence. In order for the family to rise once again, they would need Fabian!
