Maggie agreed with a nod, “Yes, we do need to work with the other families in order to exchange resources. But a bond is needed for us to trust each other, and that bond is the children of the families. We, the children, have been brought up with no freedom in life or marriage. From the day we’re born, we are forever bound to our families. We live and die together.”

Agreeing with Maggie’s words, Alex nodded his head too as he thought of Heather.

Even though the Jennings family was‘ only a small family, Heather resolutely chose to sacrifice what she had to save her family from the crisis. To get the thirty million to keep her family alive, she was willing to bear the infamy of being with Walt for three days.

Back then, Alex could not understand why Heather made that choice as he thought she was the stupidest woman on earth.

But now, he finally understood her reason for doing so, even though he still thought the main reason was that her family was too weak.

If a family is strong enough, there’s no need to rely on marriages to form allies.

Other families would take the initiative to approach the stronger ones.

After all, the only reason Maggie and the other Grants didn’t have freedom of life was that their family was not strong enough.
