The four of us walked downstairs together towards the backyard, which had a vast expanse of greenery.
The backyard had distinctyers, surrounded by numerous tall trees, creating a serene atmosphere with lush greenery. There was even a private shoreline at the back.
Despite living in Pleca Park for so long, I hadn''t found the time to explore this area. On the left side of a gentle slope were rows of fruit trees, and below was a sizable vegetable garden. This backyard had been designed specifically for my father''s tastes. Various types of flowers bloomed around the perimeter in each season, filling the air with their fragrances.
It wasn''t until I reached the backyard that I realized many of the fresh flowers in the rooms were sourced from our own garden.
Ava and Jenny chattered incessantly as we walked toward the backyard, like two butterflies fluttering around us.
At that moment, I suddenly thought of my biological father. I wondered where he was right now and if he was safe.
If he were here in the garden, witnessing this peaceful and wonderful scene, it would be such a joyful moment for him.
He could be tending to flowers in the yard, watching the children run around, sipping tea, and chatting. That would give me peace of mind.
However, I had no idea where he was.
Seeing me suddenly lost in thought, As put his arm around me and looked at my face. "What are you thinking?"
"I''m thinking about my dad," I said straightforwardly. "I don''t know how he''s doing right now. Is he well-fed and well-dressed? Is he healthy?" The more I thought about it, the heavier my heart became.
As tightened his grip on his arm and softly said to me, "There''s news. He''s still in Navi''s hands."
I was shocked and immediately asked him, "How do you know? Is the information reliable?"
"It is. This time, we contacted the leader of the Bermuda Alliance, General Xavier. It''s all been arranged," As said with certainty.
"When are we going?" I was getting impatient. I couldn''t stand the idea of him still being in danger.This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
I was afraid of even the slightest mishap. Now that my mom was gone, I couldn''t bear to lose him either. No matter his state, I just hoped he was alive.
Fearing my impatience, As
exined gently, "Once we wrap up
Matthew''s situation, we''ll go over. It''s perfect timing because General Xavier also wants to gather evidence against Navi. If he doesn''tply and hand over people, they wipe him out."
"Do you have confidence?" I asked, a bit trembling. Although I had yet to go to Bermuda, I had heard about its conditions.
"This guy has been trying to dominate all three areas and colluding with external alliances to seize business, causing public resentment. So, General Xavier wants to put an end to him," As exined.
He had done a lot of work.
"Is this what you meant by waiting for the right opportunity?" I asked.
He nodded solemnly. "Yes, we must be fully confident before taking action. Otherwise, Uncle Rory will face additional danger."
"Is he currently in danger?" I inquired.
As confidently replied, "No, Navi is
using him to contact the
non-organization, trying to increase his bargaining chips to resist the Bermuda Alliance and achieve his goal of dominating Bermuda. So, he dare not let him be harmed.
After a moment of contemtion, As continued, "But one thing is certain. The non-organization won''t let themselves be manipted by Navi forever. Once Navi gains power, they know it won''t be easy to control him, so I''m afraid they also want to find and silence him.
Hearing this, I was surprised. "So, he''s still in danger."
"For now, we can only rely on General Xavier''s influence. That''s why we have to wait and not act recklessly." As''s words sounded a bit passive, and I felt uneasy. As I was about to ask more, he stopped me
in time.
