Seven days later, Finley's seventieth birthday finally arrived.
A birthday banquet was held at the Carter Family home. The entire Carter Family was happy,
This was a very special day. Besides Finley's birthday, it was the day the next head of the family was announced.
Finley appreciated it so much that he invited everyone he could.
Among the invitees, the most important people were from second-rate families. In Finley's opinion, this was the limit of his social circle.
Meanwhile, the invited guests continued to arrive at the party room.
"The Lawler family of Umbrella City presents two billion two hundred and fifty million dollars."
"The McMahon family from Umbrella City has presented ten golden peaches."
"The Rollings family from Umbrella City has gifted a jade carving."
The list of prizes was still long. Finley smiled as he listened to the list of prizes being read out. However, in his heart, he felt unhappy.

The next head of the Carter Family is not Marella, but Roy.Who is Roy?Almost everyone looked at Finley in confusion.Only Veronica's face changed when she heard his name."Roy, please come in," Finley said with a smile after seeing everyone's reactions.As soon as he finished speaking, the people saw a young man walking in.Roy was about twenty years old. He looked like Finley with a confident smile."This is my son, Roy Carter."Finley looked at the crowd of guests and continued speaking, "As you know, I have three sons. The eldest and third sons were incompetent, so they were sent overseas. Although my second son has abilities, he does not care about the Carter Family. My second son ran away from home for many years and has not returned."However, I was lucky. Twenty years ago, I had another child. Therefore, from a young age I prepared Roy as my successor. In order for him to grow up in a good environment, I didn't
Rayner smiled at Tiana and then, walked in slowly. An old man in a robe followed him.He is Darnell Mcclure, an expert Early Stage Deep Guard of the Kennedy Family.A smile spread across Tiana's face when she saw Rayner arrive. He knew that the show was about to start.The other members of the Carter Family were confused. They felt that Rayner had gone crazy calling Finley that."Rayner, how dare you talk to me like that. I'm your grandfather. Are you?" Finley rebuked Rayner angrily.He knew that Rayner had a grudge against him for taking Rayner's lottery number.However, as a son-in-law staying at Finley's house, Rayner had to be patient.Finley couldn't believe Rayner would dare talk to him like that. He thought Rayner was crazy."Grandpa? Don't you feel humiliated when you say that?" Rayner sneered, then looked at the other Carter Family members and said, "When Master Ashton sold his lottery numbers. I got one lottery number
Hearing that, everyone was dumbfounded. They didn't expect Bryce to come forward to argue with them.Bryce is only at the Upper Stage Capable level, while Darnell is an Advanced Champion.How could a capable champion like Bryce say that in front of an advanced champion.Tiana looked at Bryce and sneered, "Bryce, if you had said that back then, there wouldn't be any Carter Family member who would dare to disprove you. However, my husband's family has an Advanced Champion now. How dare you still act arrogant.""Bryce, go away. I don't need your help." Veronica frowned and said anxiously.Veronica knew that Bryce wanted to help her take over the leadership of the Carter Family. That way, Bryce could finalise his deal and leave Veronica behind.However, the decision was clear. Tiana would lead the Carter Family with Rayner's help.Rayner had an Advanced Champion, while Bryce was just an Able Champion. It seemed impossible to defeat him.
Rayner began to tremble after hearing Bryce's words. He kept shaking his head and muttering, "No way. There's no way you're Master Sky.Rayner could not accept the fact that Bryce was the Sky Master.When Rayner learnt that Bryce was a Capable Champion, he was upset and kept a low profile in front of Bryce.After Rayner returned to his family and became the Kennedy Family's young master, Rayner thought he was more powerful than Bryce. However, it turned out that Bryce was the Sky Master. This means that Rayner is still nothing compared to Bryce.Rayner could not stand this.Darnell tried to get up and approachedBryce. Suddenly, Darnell knelt down to Bryce and begged, "Master Sky, forgive me. Please, don't hurt the Kennedys."The Kennedys became very strong thanks to Darnell, an Advanced Guardian.However, Darnell was unable to defeat Bryce. If Bryce wanted to wipe out the Kennedys, there was nothing Darnell could do."I
Veronica's tone is firm, even forceful. Everyone in the room could hear Veronica clearly.She cared too much about her family all this time and it made her suffer a lot.She will not compromise this time.The entire Carter Family was stunned by Veronica's words. Then, they all looked at her.They thought to themselves, how could she refuse Finley's request?Did Veronica want to kill Finley?"You really let me down, Veronica."Finley stared at Veronica. Then, he immediately grabbed his chest, glared at the ceiling, and fell to the floor while pretending to be in pain."He had another heart attack."The whole family was in an uproar. They surrounded Finley."You are an unlucky person, Veronica. How could you do this to your grandfather?""I told you that he has heart disease. Why didn't you listen to me? If anything happens to him, you're responsible."They all checked on Finley's condition while blami
Veronica's expression was frantic.What Lexy said is true.Veronica didn't want Bryce to leave.However, Veronica herself did not understand his feelings.They had been together for three years. Perhaps Veronica's feelings for Bryce are growing now, but she's still not sure.Veronica did not know what this feeling was.Is she in love with Bryce?Veronica doesn't know the answer. She has never been in love before, so she does not know if this is love.However, Veronica was quick to deny. She would never love an arrogant man like Bryce.No, no way.Veronica is not in love with Bryce. She just doesn't want him to leave her."Mum, what can I do to keep him here?"Veronica asked Lexy.Lexy laughed again and said, "Well, it's simple. If you want to conquer her heart, you must first do something to make her stay.""What do you mean?"Veronica looks confused. Lexy doesn't answer her and
Alahan is located deep in the interiorSouth Kaldtown Bamboo Ocean Mountains.Meanwhile, Umbrella City is over a thousand kilometres away from Kaldtown. it will be a long journey.After three days of travelling, Bryce finally arrived at the foot of South Kaldtown's Bamboo Ocean.As far as the eye could see, only bamboo trees filled the mountains.A young man in the car became agitated.He pointed at the mountain and screeched, "Don't. go there. There are bad people there. There are bad people there. "The young man was trembling with fear.Bryce frowned and immediately took the young man's hand to calm him down. "Don't worry. I'll protect you. How can we find your parents if we don't go there?"Hearing Bryce's words, the young man felt safe and protected.Slowly, he regained his composure.At this moment, Cory took out the map and said, "Master, we are still some distance away from Alahan. Considering the s
Then, the caravan started moving.Along the way, they talked about all sorts of things and laughed a lot. Only the tall woman seemed to dislike talking. She looked cold and haughty, like a queen. She only answered when others asked her.Bryce learnt where they were from through their conversation.They are students from Skoerntown, Skoern, and are adventurous.This time, they went on an expedition to Alahan.The man they referred to as "Mr Dalton" was Barrett Dalton. He was the eldest son of a large family in Kaldtown. Apparently, these people followed whatever he said.The tall woman is Tracy Kelly. She hails from Skoerntown City.Apparently, she did not come from an ordinary family.When Barrett talked to Tracy, his demeanour was different. It was obvious that he liked Tracy.The woman sitting next to Tracy is her best friend, Erica Adela.The other two men were Alan Byrd and Tate Olson. They were both classmate
