Colin wasted no time and got straight to the point. “Ms. Garcia, Mr. Cox, I’ve heard that both of your
families have recently encountered some troubles, is that correct?”
Neera glanced at Avery. He didn’t beat around the bush and said frankly, “I assume you are well aware
of the specifics of the trouble, Mr. Wiley.”
Colin’s features were as exquisite as a painting. His demeanor was elegant and spirited, embodying
the grace of a true gentleman.
But who could have imagined that he would turn out to be a ruthless and cold-blooded leader of
Lordsworth Estate.
“The Bartitsu Guild has always been ruthless and unscrupulous, never showing a shred of trust toward
the forces under its command. With the rise in power of the Cox and Gordon families, the guild will
inevitably feel threatened. Their current actions suggest they want to eliminate both families to alleviate
potential threats, while conveniently absorbing their power and benefits. In the guild’s view, now is the
best time to strike and take advantage of the Cox family’s distraction to deliver a fatal blow. It’s a case
of achieving twice the result with half the effort. This is indeed something the Bartitsu Guild would do.
As always, they’re underhanded and ruthless.”
Avery stared at him. Isn’t Lordsworth Estate the same?
However, he naturally didn’t voice these thoughts. He simply responded with a nonchalant expression,
“The guild’s actions have indeed disappointed the Cox and Gordon families.”
Colin nodded understandingly. “I can understand. Anyone would feel disgusted by such a situation.
After all, the Cox and Gordon families have been part of the Bartitsu Guild for generations. Over the
years, they have never done anything detrimental to the guild. Now, for the guild to pull such a stunt,
it’s like discarding the millstone after grinding the grain. No one would be able to accept this.”
He took the initiative to extend an olive branch.
“So, Ms. Garcia, Mr. Cox, would you consider coming to Lordsworth Estate?”
Neera and Avery exchanged a glance.
“Mr. Wiley, I believe with your intelligence, you must have guessed why I reached out to you. I see you
as a straightforward person, so I won’t beat around the bush. Indeed, I intend to have the Gordon
family and the Cox family leave the Bartitsu Guild. As you said, in Phison, apart from the Bartitsu Guild,
there is Lordsworth Estate. The two forces are equal in strength and status. But I still have some
concerns. The first one is about the Bartitsu Guild. If the Cox and Gordon families were to leave, we
would certainly be branded as traitors. Even if our two families do not plan to develop within the guild in
the future, we absolutely cannot bear this stigma.”
Colin, comfortably seated in his chair, raised an eyebrow. His hand casually rested on the edge of the
table, his fingers tapping rhythmically, revealing a mind lost in deep thought.
Neera fixed her gaze on his attractive fingertips, but she had no mood to appreciate them. Her
heartbeat rose and fell with his tapping. She was filled with unease.
They clearly wanted to seek refuge with Lordsworth Estate, yet now they were sitting here negotiating
terms with the people from Lordsworth Estate.
Is this really the right thing to do? Could it be that Colin feels we are pushing our luck a bit too much?
Just as she was secretly feeling anxious, Colin suddenly laughed. His smile was invigorating, devoid of
any hint of displeasure.

after he finished speaking his gaze shifted to Avery
M: Cox, you wouldn’t mind, would you?”
The subtle change in his gaze had gone unnoticed by Neera, but Avery had seen it clearly
he furrowed his brows, unable to see through this man. He couldn’t help suspecting that he was hiding
something.
At that moment, he didn’t say anything and just gently nodded
Unfazed Coin shified his gaze back to Neera

not be placed upon the Cox and Gordon families Since both familles intend to develop within

Is this really the right thing to do? Could it be that Colin feels we are pushing our luck a bit too much?
Just as she was secretly feeling anxious, Colin suddenly laughed. His smile was invigorating, devoid of
any hint of displeasure.
“Ms. Garcia, you once saved the life of our lord, making you his benefactor, and by extension, the
benefactor of the entire Lordsworth Estate. Given your status, there’s no need for you to be so formal
with me. Feel free to speak your mind.”
Neera didn’t expect him to say that. She was taken aback and felt somewhat awkward for no apparent
reason.
However, since he had already said so, she didn’t want to be too picky. She simply agreed and said,
“Mr. Wiley, you don’t need to be so formal with me either. It’s better if we’re more casual with each
other.”
There was no telling what Colin was thinking. A mysterious glint flickered in his eyes.
“All right, since you don’t mind, Ms. Garcia, let’s be more casual, just like friends chatting together, with
no one feeling constrained.”
After he finished speaking, his gaze shifted to Avery.
“Mr. Cox, you wouldn’t mind, would you?”
The subtle change in his gaze had gone unnoticed by Neera, but Avery had seen it clearly.
He furrowed his brows, unable to see through this man. He couldn’t help suspecting that he was hiding

Upon hearing this, Neera felt a bit more at ease.
She wanted to say something more, but Colin seemed to have understood her thoughts and took the
initiative to continue speaking.
“As for your other concerns, Ms. Garcia, I understand them all. The Cox and Gordon families had no
choice but to leave the Bartitsu Guild due to their circumstances. Therefore, even if they come to us,
they might not be able to fit in immediately. There are some things that might be beyond their control.”
Avery’s eyelids twitched slightly. “So? Mr. Wiley, would Lordsworth Estate mind?”
Colin shook his head, exuding extraordinary grace.
“Mr. Cox, you’re overthinking it. They won’t mind.”
