Having resolved most of her concerns and been playfully teased by Jean in the car, Neera felt completely relaxed. Her speech even became more cheerful as she replied, “It went smoothly. Lordsworth Estate was very cooperative. Colin is already aware of our situation. He said that even if we didn’t reach out to him, he would take the initiative to contact us. He has agreed to let the Gordon family and the Cox family enter the sphere of influence of Lordsworth Estate.”

Chad was not surprised by this outcome. “What about the conditions? What did they say?”

There’s no need for them to go to such great lengths, having all their people protect the Gordon family, let alone willingly hand over the white flag. Isn’t this an unnecessary move?
