Yasmin limped over with Margaret to the gate too.
Their faces were stained with tears and worry.
Melody whispered, “Mr. Nash, are you not going down to reassure them?”
“I can’t make that promise…”
Nash understood what Melody meant. If he were to tell them that he would bring everyone back safely,
they would feel more at ease.
However, the tomb of the King of Medicine was full of undead corpses, deathworms, and many
unknown dangers.
It was uncertain if everyone could make it out alive.
Melody pursed her red lips. “Aren’t you afraid of death?”
“Of course! Wealth and honor are predestined; life and death are in the hands of fate!
“There is no one in this world who isn’t afraid of death. The experts… all crawl out from the gap
between life and death!”
James could see through everything. Lauren’s cousins who married into the family were from poor
backgrounds. Only the partners of the women who were married off came from prominent families.
Harrison was considered one of the outstanding ones among the Mares’ sons-in-law.
This gave Harrison the courage to stand up against the others.
“Harrison… watch your words. You’re in the Mares’ property now, not the Lewises’!”
A middle-aged man with an ashen complexion said in a deep voice.
It was Lauren’s eldest brother, Leonard.
“Uncle Leonard… I think that Uncle Harrison has a point. Aunt Lauren finally returned. It’s fine that no
one showed her any hospitality. However, everyone dares to verbally target her. If word gets out, aren’t
you just giving people a reason to laugh at us?”
Yvonne pouted as she defended her aunt.
Leonard’s wife, Minerva, said coldly, “The adults are talking. Why is a brat like you speaking?”
James snorted. “The Mares are talking. Why are you speaking?”
Minerva used to work in a foot massage parlor.
Leonard had a drunken one-night stand with Minerva and got her pregnant.
To prevent anyone from gossiping, he had no choice but to marry her.
Old Mare disliked Minerva the most.
