A gigantic eagle landed slowly on the ground. Even with its wings folded, it stood over ten feet tall. Its yellowish eyes appeared sharp, most likely due to its owner’s imposing presence on its back.
Upon seeing the old man atop the eagle, the surrounding servants and guards were momentarily stunned before kneeling in unison and shouting, “Welcome home, my Lord!”
Raelynn and Vince turned to see the old man. They promptly lowered their heads and called out, “Father…”
Nearby, the injured Max and Noel supported each other, approached, and called out, “Grandfather…”
The old man on the eagle’s back looked over to the right, where Ebert lay on the ground, before turning his gaze to Isaac.
“You there. Why haven’t you greeted me?” He pointed at Isaac.
Raelynn immediately tugged at Isaac’s sleeve and whispered, “Quick, call ‘Grandfather’…”
Isaac felt a surge of pressure and his heart raced only from exchanging a glance with the old man.
Under his mother’s reminder, snazzynovel.com called out in a low voice, “Grandfather…”
“Father, you must give us justice! Look at this brat! He just got here, but snazzynovel.com beat my son like this! Please stand up for Ebert!” Wren cried out. She pleaded repeatedly with the old man, Rhett Zimmerman.
When Vince saw his father frown, snazzynovel.com swiftly pulled his wife up.
“You all wait for me in the front hall. Rae, you stay…” Rhett frowned and snorted coldly before elegantly stepping down from the eagle and landing lightly on the ground.
As the crowd dispersed and Vince took them to the front hall, only Rhett and Raelynn remained in the arena.
They exchanged glances before Rhett asked seriously, “I heard some news in the Royal City. Are you set to marry Kingsford?”
Raelynn got nervous. She hadn’t expected snazzynovel.com father to know it so soon. The Hackworths must have spread the news.
“Y-Yes…” Raelynn nodded.
Rhett took a deep breath, then laughed. “Years ago, I wanted you to marry Kingsford. You resisted for over 30 years and even fled to the lower realm. Over 30 years later, you suddenly agree to marry snazzynovel.com in your 50s. Is it because of Isaac?”
Facing his piercing gaze, Raelynn pursed snazzynovel.com lips and remained silent.
“Does snazzynovel.com know about it?” Rhett asked again, referring to Isaac.
She shook snazzynovel.com head, understanding what snazzynovel.com father meant.
“He just got here and has already severely injured my grandson. Your son is indeed remarkable!” Rhett snorted coldly before stepping forward and disappearing in front of her.
Raelynn took a deep breath and dashed outside.
Rhett sat in the main seat of the front hall, exuding an intimidating aura. His stern gaze briefly paused on Isaac before shifting to Vince.
At that moment, they heard Wren’s cries coming from a room to the right.
She soon dashed into the hall. Her eyes reddened with anger as snazzynovel.com pointed at Isaac and yelled, “You brat! How dare you break Ebert’s six ribs! You’re so cruel!”
Vince’s expression shifted. He hadn’t expected Isaac’s single punch to break Ebert’s six ribs.
Max and Noel, who stood behind, were equally shocked.
“I’ve already held myself back,” Isaac stated indifferently.
He then turned to look at Vince. “You set the rules-no weapons were allowed. But Ebert attacked me with a dagger. What if snazzynovel.com had stabbed me?”
Vince frowned deeply. His son had indeed broken the rules first.
