Cannot Be Willful
Throughout the remaining hours of that day, Neera felt entirely disoriented, unable to concentrate.
She recognized that she had no escape from the situation, and while she had no intention of retreating,
she grappled with the question of how to inform the people she held dear.
92%
She hoped for a successful outcome, but in the event that things took a turn for the worse, she
grappled with the daunting prospect of what actions to take.
That evening, she barely ate a few bites of dinner and retreated to her room.
Avery, worried about her distant and preoccupied demeanor, mentioned, “I’ll go upstairs and check on
her.”
Shane held him back, advising, “You better not.”
Avery furrowed his brow, inquiring, “Why not? She appears so uneasy, hardly touching her dinner.”
Shane sighed. “I know, and I understand she’s under a lot of pressure. The world of Phison is so
different from the outside world, and she’s been confronting one challenge after another. It’s normal to
feel anxious. However, I believe… what’s troubling her the most right now might not be the district
president’s election.”
He paused, leaving his statement hanging.
In Avery’s mind, it became clear. His pupils constricted, and he suppressed the emotions tugging at the
corners of his mouth.
Upstairs, in her room, Neera sat on the bed, hugging her knees, holding her phone. She hesitated to
make the call.
Perhaps it was best not to tell her family about this just yet.
Just as she was contemplating this, her phone rang.
It was a call from Chad.
She paused for a moment, recalling that Charles had probably already informed Chad about the
situation.
After a brief hesitation, she answered, using the same cheerful tone as always to greet him.
“Uncle Chad, is there something you need? How are you and Aunt Adriana doing?”
“We’re both fine,” Chad replied with a sigh. “I’ve already heard about the Guild’s selection location in
the forest.”
Neera wasn’t surprised. She responded, “Yes, I’ve learned about this forest from Shane and Mr. Cox. It
sounds pretty scary, but it’s just a forest, not a den of monsters. It should be manageable.”
Chad disagreed, “It’s not as simple as you think. The forest is a place that can make even Phison
residents shiver. You can imagine the dangers inside. The terrain is complex, and there are many traps
set up in the past. People without enough experience who venture in could encounter unexpected
problems. Neera, it’s too dangerous. You should reconsider and not go.”
Neera wryly chuckled. “Didn’t Charles tell you what Mr. Lozano said? The guild clearly wants to involve
the Gordon family. I have no choice. As the new family head, the Gordon family has already attracted
too much attention within the guild due to the recent incident. If I refuse, it would be a public
embarrassment for the family, and our position within the guild would plummet. The Gordon family’s
future would become extremely difficult. So, I can’t bé willful.”
Chad didn’t expect her to have thought this through so thoroughly, and he was at a loss for words..
After a pause, he spoke again in a somber tone.
“I’m sorry, Neera. I didn’t expect things to get so complicated this time. Even the previous attack was
my fault for involving you and subjecting you to these situations.”
Not wanting him to feel guilty, Neera softly reassured him.
“Uncle Chad, don’t say it like that. In fact, ever since I took on the role of family head, I’ve been
prepared for anything. I can’t back down, no matter what difficulties I face. This time is no different. I
agreed to this because I hope you and Aunt Adriana can spend your remaining years in peace. You
missed so many years, and now you finally have a chance to be together. I want you to cherish the
time you have left with each other, so I don’t want to involve you in these matters.”
“You’re such a sensible girl,” Chad said, his heart aching.
Neera laughed lightly, trying to lighten the mood.
“Of course, I’m Aunt Adriana’s beloved niece. Naturally, I have to worry about her happiness.”
She then asked with concern, “Uncle Chad, you didn’t tell Aunt Adriana about this, did you? And what
about the attack on me…”
Chad shook his head. “No, if she knew, she would insist on going to find you right now.”
“That’s good,” Neera sighed in relief. “We must keep it from Aunt Adriana; otherwise, she’ll worry.”
“Don’t worry about things here. I’ll be with her. But you need to be careful. By the way, have you… told
Jean about this?”
