“Umm…“ Upon hearing this, Caleb’s complexion turned an uncertain shade of pale green.
He knew full well that the Morrisons’ Mansion could never stand up against the forces of the Fermers, Grimstons, and Underwoods. Continuing to shelter Leon would be akin to walking straight into a death trap.
However, the Cynthion Group was a partner of the Morrisons’ Mansion, and he had publicly declared his support for Leon in the face of the Fermers just moments ago. As the esteemed head of the Morrisons’ Mansion, going back on his word in front of numerous ancient martial family forces would be a betrayal of trust.
The Morrisons’ Mansion would likely become a laughingstock if he did so – a situation he could not bear to witness.
With these thoughts in mind, he found himself in a quandary, unsure of howto proceed. “Dad, I’ve advised you before;the Morrisons’ Mansion should steer clear of the feud between Leon and the Fermers. But you refused to listen!
“However, there’s still some room for maneuvering in this matter! In my opinion, it’s best for the Morrisons’ Mansion to withdraw promptly to avoid further embarrassment,” Jayden chimed in, seizing the opportunity to continue his agenda, secretly pleased with the turn of events.
He had always advocated for the Morrisons’ Mansion to abandon sheltering Leon. It was only after Hugo and Renee persuaded Caleb to change his mind that the Morrisons’ Mansion found itself in this dilemma. Of course, this indirectly validated his stance as correct!
If Caleb were to adopt his suggestion now and cease protecting Leon, not only could the Fermers, Grimstons, and Underwoods teach Leon a lesson, but he could also regain favor with Caleb and several elders of the Morrisons’ Mansion, effectively overshadowing Hugo. It would be a winwin situation, and he could not be happier.
“No, we can’t do this! The Morrisons’ Mansion cannot act in such a manner!
Caleb immediately vetoed.
