Chapter 254 Return to the Old Place

After hearing the news of his parents' passing from Sierra, Lachlan had the urge to go back and visit the old house. With only ten days left until the wedding, Miranda had mentioned wanting to see Lachlan's childhood "home" yesterday. Even Emmanuel and Cara had expressed interest in visiting.

Lachlan knew that Miranda, her parents, and even her little brother already considered him family. That was why they wanted to know more about his past.

Naturally, Lachlan couldn't refuse their request. But before he could do that, he needed to clean up the old house first. Otherwise, it might not be habitable anymore.

The next morning in Carningsby Village of Laenteglos Town under Edoland City's jurisdiction, a bus stopped in front of a civilian house on the east side of town.

Lachlan jumped off with Mason following closely behind him along with Dennis, Jeremy and other members of Mason's gang.

When they heard that Lachlan was coming back to clean up his old house last night, Mason didn't hesitate for a second before bringing people over to help out.

Cleaning up an entire house by himself would have been too much trouble for Lachlan so he didn't argue with his little brother-in-law about it either.

Lachlan wanted to keep a low profile so they hired a small bus instead of driving fancy cars like usual when going out together as friends or business partners around Edoland City.

Mason, who usually walked around Edoland, carrying an iron shovel, followed behind them while Dennis and others were carrying tools for work as well. All looking like ordinary workers without anyone suspecting their true identities as big shots...

"Brother-in-law," said Mason surprised at seeing this old home," Did you live here when you were young?"

"Yeah," replied Lachlan looking at this familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar place. "This used to be my home."

He left the village only after he entered high school.

Before that, he lived in the village with his parents, and he attended junior high school in the town.

After standing there for a while lost in thought, Lachlan regained composure, walked over and opened the door saying, "Come on inside!"
