Chapter 2010: Such a Grand Setup

The next day.

Luther, accompanied by Joyce and the children, boarded South Island. The wedding was scheduled for the day after tomorrow.

Guests would be arriving gradually over the next couple of days.

Kane followed Joyce to South Island. Luther had discussed with him last night about the communication surveillance around South Island, including intercepting signals to prevent any outgoing signals from the island.

Today, they arrived early to further enhance security, conducting thorough checks and precautions.

South Island was a not-so-big island, with picturesque landscapes, waves crashing against the rocky shore, creating a rhythmic sound. The island was divided by a meandering stream, the water flowing gently, crystal clear and clean pebbles lining the bottom. Sunlight beamed through the leaves, creating a sparkling effect on the stream. It was late autumn, with the arrival of early winter, the small hills were covered with red maple leaves, interspersed with the golden hues of ginkgo trees, a sight to behold.

The wedding venue was the only resort on the island.

Firstly, the resort connected the golden beach and the sea, with a huge lawn in between, where winter wheat grew lushly. At the end of the lawn, stood a grand banquet hall and a sprawling main building, embracing the surroundings with open arms. This area served to welcome VIP guests and host luxurious banquets.

Behind the banquet hall were rows of vacation villas for the guests to stay in.

Joyce and Luther stayed in the closest large villa to the banquet hall. Besides Aaron, there were dozens of bodyguards and four nannies accommodated in one place.

As soon as they arrived on South Island, Anderson followed Kane to set up the security system at the banquet hall.

The control room was located on the top floor of the entire banquet hall, covering a vast space of about 500 square meters, housing dozens of mainframes connecting every corner of the island. There were approximately 30 staff members inside, each diligently monitoring their assigned areas.

Anderson was amazed by the grand setup. Compared to what he had experienced before, this was on a whole new level.

"Wow," Anderson exclaimed, "This is way too much, they even have machines to intercept satellite signals."

"Your dad is indeed exaggerated. Just leave the national defense tasks to him in the future," Kane replied with a wry smile. He had heard about Luther's thorough arrangements, but this surpassed his expectations. It seemed like not even a fly could get in undetected.

"So, what do we have to do?" Anderson frowned, "There are so many people, we seem pretty useless here."

"Who said that? Let's familiarize ourselves with all the networks first," Kane pointed at a mainframe, "We'll connect the signal to our devices. In case of any emergency, we can be informed immediately. You'll attend the wedding the day after tomorrow, and I'll stay backstage to watch over."

"But Uncle Kane, aren't you here to attend the wedding too?" Anderson glanced at Kane.

"Well, it's just for the sake of formality. Your safety comes first. We will see each other anyway, no need for unnecessary formalities," Kane said nonchalantly, though deep down, he did mind a bit. Who would willingly watch their goddess marry someone else? Knowing was one thing, witnessing it was another.

Anderson rolled his eyes, "Do you perhaps have a crush on my mom? I suggest you drop that idea. It's impossible."

Kane shook his head, then playfully tapped Anderson's forehead, "You little rascal, watch your words."

"Only speaking the truth," Anderson said as he sat in front of the mainframe, looking surprisingly mature, "Uncle Kane, I felt something was off at home recently. Dad and Mom were always discussing things without telling me. And Dad ramped up security at home, being more attentive to me and my little sister."

Kane was unaware of the situation and looked surprised, "Are you saying something's wrong at home?"
