Chapter 1520

"What's going on? Your parents are also here for the Riddle family dinner?” Harvey asked, the strange feeling in his gut growing heavier by the second.

At that point, he began wondering what had happened to Nicole. What did she do to draw so many figures of influence here?

"Oh, Nicole got involved in a pretty significant matter. Of course, it makes sense that we should be here! It's not just the Bradford family. Look at the whole place. All ten of the families are here in full. Even the ones that did not bother to join us had sent their representatives over. I heard that there are still large families whose representatives are rushing over now. This time around, the Riddle family must be enjoying the prestige.” Edwin mused as he scanned the surroundings.

Quietly, he was thinking, ‘Luckily, I got to know Nicole before this. We are now considered as friends. I would be able to share in her prestige as well.’

"What happened to Nicole?" Harvey queried, feeling a lot more uncomfortable about it as Edwin did know about it too.

However, it was a long story, which had begun with the legends shared between all of the ancient families long ago.

For someone like Edwin, who was not particularly good at expressing himself, he did not know where to begin. "You don't know about it? In that case, just wait for the dinner to begin. Soon, you'll understand why these people are here for Nicole."

Hearing that the crowd was here for Nicole, a dull feeling began to set in for Harvey.
