HappyNovelChapter 772: "Not yet," Neil replied with a shake of his head. “Everett just got back to Blebert the day before yesterday. He hasn't been seen in public or accepted any visitors." "How do you know he's against continuing our families' alliance then?" Aelfric pressed.

"And did she say why Everett wants to cut off our alliance?" Aelfric probed further. "Wouldn't the Brock family benefit from eliminating Connor and splitting his assets?" "The reason isn't clear,” Neil said. “But Della mentioned that Everett returned hdeeply dissatisfied with the agreements and marriage ties his father had set up. He's planning sweeping changes now that he took over the reins." "What does his father think about all this?" Aelfric inquired.
"Lewis has recently married a young actress and seems quite taken with her. He's looking to retire and enjoy his life," Neil said. "He only kept running things because Everett was away. Now, he's passed the reins to Everett." .cóm is the source Aelfric was silent for a moment, processing the implications. The fading of the tri-family alliance seemed inevitable, especially with his recent dismissal from the Doomsday Base and Everett's unexpected return. Yet, he was not ready to let go of his ambitions.
Aelfric had always harbored two major dreams: to take over King's position at Doomsday Base and turn it into his personal empire, and to eliminate Connor, a fixation since his youth. Now, with the first dream unreachable, he was determined to focus on his remaining goal.
Narrowing his eyes, Aelfric posed a sharp question. “So, Neil, what are you suggesting? Are you proposing we dissolve our families' marriage bond and end our partnership?" Neil pursed his lips, his response delayed by hesitation. He felt the sting of conflict within him. Like Aelfric, the idea of abandoning their shared goal of eliminating Connor was almost unbearable. Yet, with the shifts in their alliance and Aelfric's loss of influence at Doomsday Base, the prospect of continuing their cooperation seemed increasingly futile. Even at their strongest, taking down Connor had been a formidable challenge; now, it appeared outright impossible.

"You're absolutely right,” Neil confessed with a heavy sigh. "My disdain for Connor runs deep. I won't rest until he's utterly defeated." "Then why not sustain our alliance?" Aelfric suggested. "Though I've lost my title at the Doomsday Base, I remain the leader of the Warren family—still influential, still potent. If the Brock family withdraws, we'll simply align with someone even more formidable. There's no reason to lose heart, Neil." The idea of a new, potentially more powerful ally sparked interest in Neil's eyes. "A new partner? Who do you have in mind, Aelfric?" With a sly grin, Aelfric asked, "Remember Amiri?"
"Amiri?" Neil furrowed his brows. "But isn't Amiri dead?" The content is on novelenglish.net!
"True, Amiri is gone, but his legacy lives on through his brother, Lambert, who's hell-bent on avenging him? Aelfric elaborated. "Lambert has inherited all of Amiri's connections and is eager to challenge those responsible for his brother's demise."
"But can Lambert truly seek revenge?" Neil pondered aloud. "Amiri met his end on the Sunrise, and the circumstances of his deathrare m murky. Even if Lambèrt has assumed Amiri's mantle, challenging the Sunrise is a monumental risk. And what does that have to do with our fight with Connor? How does allying with Lambert benefit us if his feud lies with the Sunrise?" Skepticism laced Neil's tone
