The Carter Family.
In the family council hall.
Andre was sitting in his seat, glaring at his younger brother, Senno, who was sitting opposite him. His eyes were full of anger.
"My dear brother, is this how you treat your elder brother?"
Andre said to Senno in a cold tone. "I have already given you two properties under my name, and you still want a yard after taking an inch. Aren't you going too far?"
Hearing Andre's words, Senno smiled faintly and calmly said, "Dear Elder Brother, I've never been disrespectful to you. I just feel that the people under you are too useless. With their abilities, they aren't qualified to manage such an important family business. I just want my people to help Elder Brother. After all, we are all working for the family, aren't we?"
"You!"
Andre was furious. What he hated most was Senno using the family's righteousness to suppress him!
"The two of you, have you had enough?"
The current patriarch of the Carter Family, Churchill, who was sitting at the head of the table, looked indifferently at the two brothers who were quarreling with a hint of impatience in his eyes.
Upon hearing Churchill's words, Andre and Senno immediately shut their mouths and turned to look at Churchill. Their expressions became respectful, and there wasn't the slightest trace of anger or carelessness on their faces.
Seeing the two brothers' performance, Churchill sighed, and said to Senno, "Senno, you are too reckless. You shouldn't have casually sent people to interfere with the properties I gave your brother."
Hearing Churchill's words, Andre's face suddenly showed a touch of joy, while Senno's expression changed slightly. He seemed to be a little frightened.
But before Andre could be happy for long, Churchill suddenly changed the topic, and said to Andre, "But Andre, the management skills of your people are indeed not outstanding, and they are even a little mediocre. If you can't find a suitable person to manage those properties, as your father, I can only let Senno take over the properties in your hands for the sake of the overall situation."
Andre's expression changed drastically when he heard this, while Senno's face was filled with ecstasy. The mood of the two men changed drastically almost in an instant!
"Father, I will fire all those useless things and find the most suitable person to manage those properties in the shortest time possible!" Andre swore to Churchill. "I will not let you down!"
For Andre, who was competing with Senno for the position of successor and was at a disadvantage, those properties could be said to be extremely important chips. Once he lost those properties, his authority in the family would plummet to its lowest point in history. Those who had been optimistic about him and were willing to serve him would definitely leave him without hesitation and join Senno's subordinates. As a result, he would completely lose the competition for the position of successor!
No matter what, he would not allow such a thing to happen!
"I'm very pleased with your attitude." Churchill smiled and said to Andre, "Go ahead and do it. I'll support you."
…
Bang!
Andre threw a precious porcelain viciously onto the ground, his expression extremely ferocious!
"Damn it, even an old thing like you is siding with Senno. Why?!
Is it just because his bloodline is purer than mine?! "
Andre was furious. His chest was burning with rage, and his face had begun to grow granules uncontrollably. He felt that he had to vent the anger in his heart. Otherwise, he would definitely go crazy!
At this moment, Jett's figure suddenly appeared in front of Andre. He raised his hand and gently pressed his palm on Andre's head. With a gentle force pouring into Andre's body, Andre gradually calmed down, and the granules on his face disappeared.
"Teacher …"
Andre looked at Jett, who was standing in front of him. His eyes were filled with guilt. In this family, only Jett truly cared about him. However, he had disappointed Jett time and time again. He really shouldn't have done that.
"I already know about it. The patriarch is indeed siding with Senno and has wronged you."
Hearing Jett's words, Andre's face couldn't help but reveal a pained expression. He whispered, "Teacher, what should I do?"
"Andre, don't bother with those family properties anymore. With Senno's character, he will definitely obstruct your reform and make you swallow the fruit of defeat once again. If you want to turn defeat into victory, the only way is to fight to the death!"
"Teacher, how can I fight to the death?"
"Give up everything you have in Heath City, leave this place, and find a new way out!"
Hearing Jett's suggestion, Andre couldn't help but be shocked. He had operated in Heath City for decades to reach his current position. Jett actually wanted him to give up everything? Wasn't this the same as handing over the position of successor to Senno?!
Seeing the expression on Andre's face, Jett sighed and asked, "If you stay in Heath City, how confident are you in defeating Senno?"
Facing Jett's question, Andre opened his mouth but couldn't give a clear answer. Because he knew very well that in his current situation, he definitely wasn't a match for Senno!
Seeing Andre's silence, Jett knew that Andre wasn't stupid and could still be saved. He looked at Andre seriously and said, "Leave Heath City and start over. Then, in three months, amaze the world with a single brilliant feat at the Talisman Array Master Exchange Conference and return to Heath City. At that time, everything you've lost today will be returned with interest!"
Hearing this, Andre asked somewhat doubtfully, "Teacher, where do you want me to go?
Why do I feel like you've already arranged everything for me? "
Jett took a deep look at Andre and said, "Not long ago, I received an invitation, an opportunity to join the Holy Race!"
"The Sacred Clan?!"
Andre was shocked, "Teacher, are you talking about the Sacred Clan, one of the top ten ancient clans?!"
"That's right, the Sacred Clan!"
Jett said to Andre in a serious tone, "In the Celestial Cluster, joining the Sacred Clan is a taboo matter. Remember, you must keep this matter a secret!"
"Teacher, I will definitely keep it a secret!"
Andre nodded heavily and asked, "Teacher, are we going to borrow the power of the Sacred Clan to take control of the family?"
Jett nodded and said to Andre, "The Sacred Clan will arrange a new identity for you to participate in the Talisman Array Master Exchange Conference. At that time, you will become the most dazzling star of the Talisman Array Master Exchange Conference and receive the favor of the royal family. At that time, do you think a mere successor of the Carter family is still important to you?"
Hearing Jett's words, Andre felt as though he could already see a whole new world unfolding before him. He couldn't help but reveal a look of anticipation and yearning.
