Albert's face suddenly dan kened, as he said gloomy, "Morres, Labuan, haven't you considered this? You're an eiluated man-you understand the principle that when one tilk, others are affected

"Those scumbags have ampled on me and my family, and is only a matter of time before they do the same to others Falsian, you've got two sons and a daughter. You need to think more about your family" Albert let out a chilling lough. "I genuinely hope no one the experiences what love-the pon of buying my own child"

Fabian remained sitem. Of course, he knew he needed to protect his fantly,

But his silence wasn't because Albert's words had moved him. Caleb had made a use for hussell and built has power in Japan many years ago, yet he managed to coesin peacefully with everyone. He had made such a ruthless move this time because the Williams family had crossed a line.

Their downtall came from foolishly provoking someone they should have never crossed.

In fact, Fabian even wanted to ask Albert why only their family had been blind enough to offend Madeline, especially when everyone knew that Caleb had returned to Japan with her and that she was the apple of his eve He also wanted to ask Albert whether the offense was genuinely simentional or if they simply didn't care.

To Fabian, it seemed that the Williams family had been at the pinnacle of power for so long that they had forgotten the struggles of rising from the bonsoin. This led thens to become arrogant and Lostess, resulting in their current downfall. Fabian made up his mind and said, "Albert, since things have reached this point, I won't change my state. I won't risk my family's lives for your sake. As an old friend, this is my fired piece of advice: let it go. Don't hold on to this any longer?" "Don't be stubborn anymore"

Albert didn't respond. He stared at Fabian deeply, lips tightly pressed together, his expression inscrutable.

Just then, the old butler rushed in, carrying a lavishly decorated box. "Mr. Willams, these are the trules prepares by Mrs. Horton Mrs. Mariam Williams is still in the hospital, and this might help-

Before he could dish, the box was sent flying across the room, crashing far away. He fich a slurp pain in his palm, now red and as from where the box had scraped him

Alberi bellowed. "Do you think these can pactly me? Do you think our family locks your petty offerings? Fabian, I've always respected you and have never embarrassed you. Even in business, our family never competed against you. And now, in my time of nees, you turn your back on ine and even date to advise me to give up"

Albert Laughed manically. "Tabian, you rally think you're smrthing special! The you even to the kind of power we hold in the mantal world" Who are you to lecture me?"

His laughter abruptly ceased, and he cold declosed. From today, the Williams Family and the Horton Lamily are enemies."

With that Albert turned around and stormed out of the house

The old butler, heart aching, picked up the box that had broken into two pieces and gathered the truffles scattered on the floor. Fabian sighed, shaking his head. "He's brought this upon himself.

By the afternoon, Madeline felt well enough to go downstairs for a meal, and after insisting on it, she finally managed to do so.

Taking the opportunity, she wandered around the estate and realized its security rivaled that of Caleb's residence-it was as if the guarded fortress, estate

were a well-

As she strolled through the courtyard, she spotted a dog-sized hole in the wall.

She hesitated for a moment before crouching down to see if she could fit through. She knew how

by now.

how much her brothers cared for her; if they weren't truly being restrained, there was no way they wouldn't have come to take her home

Madeline thought of herself as a "brother's girl"-a day without seeing them made her miss them terribly,

Suddenly, she heard a dog bark.

She froze, half-crouched in front of the dog hole.

A few guards, previously concealed, emerged on the wall, their cold eyes fixed on her from above.

Even without looking up, Madeline could see their long shadows cast by the setting sun.

She forced herself to stay calm, turned in a half-crouch, and glanced at the little dog behind her before smoothly and affectionately scooping it into

her arms.

"There really is a puppy!" she exclaimed with feigned excitement. I was just checking to see if there were any puppies in the dog hole. I love animals, and this little guy is so adorable... it's even a long-haired Pomeranian!" Seeing this, the guards silently withdrew from the wall.

Once the shadows were gone, Madeline breathed a sigh of relief. She looked down at the puppy's big eyes and prepared to put it back down.

You

ou like dogy?"

A young man's clear and cool voice resonated.

Madeline turned to see a young man standing there. He was dressed casually in a black down jacket that hung down to his thighs. It didn't make him look short, though; in fact, it accentuated his tall, slender figure.

His hair was blonde, and his complexion radiated health. His eyes looked somewhat distant, but there was a slight smile on his rosy lips.

Madeline felt that he seemed just like a boy next door.

"Hey, lovely, do you like dogs?" the y

young man asked again.

Madeline mapped out of her thoughts. "Yes, I love them very much! Is this your dog? What's its name? I just saw it and liked it, so I gave it a hule cuddle. I'll give it back to you now......." "This dog doesn't have a name. You can name it, the man said.
