Chapter 240 The Secret of the Stewart Family

“Shut up!” Wylie bellowed.

Billy trembled in fear, not daring to say anything further.

Wylie gritted his teeth, held the dagger in his hand tightly, and fiercely stabbed his own calf. Suddenly,

a searing pain made him tremble uncontrollably.

The Bladebane Judgment required the blade to touch the bone for it to be considered complete. Despit

e the gushing blood, Wylie didn’t stop.

Wylie withdrew the dagger and stabbed at the same spot again.

Two stabs!

Three stabs!

Four stabs!

After several stabs, his face turned deathly pale, and his body trembled from the excruciating. pain..

His bloody calf revealed faintly visible bones.

Billy was petrified when he saw this.

“Sir, I have taken on the Bladebane Judgment. Are you satisfied now?” Wylie stared intently at Cole.

At this moment, Cole was deeply shocked.

Wylie proved worthy as the leader of Mahayan Pavilion.

Most people would likely faint due to excessive bleeding after three stabs.

“Since you’ve accepted the punishment, you will continue to be a member of Galecrest from

now on!” Cole waved his hand and commanded, “Take him away for treatment!”

Two members of Galecrest lifted a stretcher, ready to carry Wylie away.

“Sir! About Easton …” Wylie urgently inquired.

“There’s no rush. We’ll discuss it later. Treat your wound first,” Cole replied calmly.

“Sir…”

Wylie attempted to say more but was already being carried away.

At this moment, he deeply felt the helplessness of being under someone else’s root

Billy followed behind Wylie.

Shortly after, a figure emerged.

“Sir, are you really planning to help Wylie return to Easton?”

“Night Shadow, Galecrest has been low–

key for too long with Diatoran. Many might have forgotten our existence. It’s time to remind them that G

alecrest remains powerful!” Cole glanced at the man in front of him and spoke.

“But… Sir, do you remember the organization that influenced half of Diatoran years ago? Easton, Napo

ria, and other regions have been dominated by them!” Night shadow pondered before speaking.

Upon hearing this, Cole’s face darkened.

He would never forget that incident.

Years ago, a major upheaval occurred in Diatoran. A mysterious organization rapidly emerged and opp

At that time, many forces within the nations were affected Even several ancient martial families remain

“Regardless, we must first strengthen our power. If we encounter a similar situation, we will at least hav

“Now, the ancient martial families of Diatoran are reappearing All major forces are recruiting Galecrest

coldly

Upon hearing this, Night Shadow fell silent.

The resurgence of the long–dormant ancient martial families would undoubtedly cause a stir

with Diatoran.

Galecrest couldn’t afford to sit idly by at this time.

“Night Shadow! Investigate the situation in Easton first, then we’ll make the decision!” Cole instructed.

“Yes, sir!”

As Night Shadow’s words fell, his figure grew dimmer, and he disappeared from the spot.

At Southlake City, in Riverside Villa.

Just as Willow returned to the villa, she received a call from her father, Carl.

“Hello, Dad. What’s wrong?” Willow inquired.

Although she had cut

ties with the Stewart family, it was between her and Marilyn. She had no grudge against her father.

“Willow, there’s something I’m not sure if I should say…” Carl started but hesitated to continue.

“Dad, just tell me. There shouldn’t be anything we can’t discuss between father and daughter,

she assured.

“Alright, I’ll tell you. Tomorrow is the Day of the Dead. I hope you and Caspian could join me to pay res

pects,” Carl said.

“Day of the Dead? Why not ask the other to go? There are plenty of people in the Stewart family. Why

do you specifically want me to come?” Willow asked, puzzled.

She didn’t expect Carl to call her for this particular reason..

“Oh! Don’t even mention it. Nobody’s willing to go. As the eldest son of the Stewart family, I must take t

Every year at this time, it was the Day of the Dead. However, the Stewart family members were unwillin

g to return to pay their respects.

Only Carl persisted, all for the sake of the Stewart family’s honor.

“If there’s no one else, I’ll bring Caspian along,” Willow said.

“That would be a great help.” Carl sighed with relief.

The next morning.

Caspian drove with Willow, leaving the villa.

As they left, a figure emerged from the bushes by the roadside as they observed Caspian’s car.

It was none other than The Reaper.

After the destruction of Mahayan Pavilion, The Reaper had nowhere to turn. His desire for revenge was

Avenging Leonardo was a task he would have to take on alone.

As he watched Caspian and Willow depart, a hint of evil flashed in his eyes.

Then, he disappeared once again from the roadside.

The Stewart family estate was located 50 miles north of Southlake City.

Most of the people in this estate shared the surname Stewart.

Carl’s grandfather and father were both buried here.

Every year on this day, the Stewart family estate became extremely lively as they held a grand

reunion.

Normally, all descendants under Marilyn should come to pay respects. However, apart from Carl, the Ste

This time, the only one willing to come forward for the holiday was Carl.

Three hours later, at the entrance of the Stewart family estate.

Carl had been waiting there for a while, and Caspian and Willow had just arrived.

“Willow, you’ll be paying respects to your great–

grandfather later!” Carl said, smiling when he saw Willow.

Willow nodded. Seeing Carl’s tired face, she felt sorry for him. It seemed that he hadn’t been‘ doing well

At this moment, everyone from the Stewart family estate had gathered there to welcome Willow.

They knew that she was the CEO of Southlake Corporation.

Naturally, everyone wanted to get closer to Willow and Carl, thinking they might benefit from this relation

“Carl, you’re here?”

At this moment, an old man with snowy white hair approached Carl.

This person was called Xandros Stewart. He was Carl’s grandfather’s brother and was almost a hundred Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Everyone in the Stewart family, manor respected him greatly and referred to him as great-

Moreover, there was a hidden secret within the Stewart family that

was unknown to the public. Only the eldest among them knew this secret, while the rest were oblivious t
