    Chapter 533


    Sydney was interrupted by Nash, who quickly exined, “This is a rather urgent matter, which is why I


    called you sote.”


    Sydney sat by the window in a hanging chair, swinging her feet as she asked, “Alright, what’s going


    on?”


    “I heard your grandfather has an Antarctic Lotus.”


    “Haha!”


    Sydney chuckled nkly and said coldly, “Put away your little scheme. My grandfather treasures that


    lotus with his life. You can forget about it!”


    There was a deep history to that Antarctic Lotus. It was the only dowry her grandmother had brought


    with her when she married her grandfather. After her grandmother passed, her grandfather would go to


    sleep every night holding that box containing the lotus.


    Nash would be daydreaming if he thought he could get it.


    “Talk to your grandfather about it. If he agrees to give it to me, then I, Nash Calcraft, will owe the Zell


    family a favor. If you guys ever face any trouble in the future, I promise to lend a helping hand.”


    Nash’s tone then gradually turned more yful. “If not, I’ll have to visit. your family.”


    The Antarctic Lotus was the main ingredient needed for him to save


    Finn. He was determined to obtain it.


    Sydney caught the underlying message in Nash’s words and pouted.” What do you mean? You n to


    rob us?”


    Nash replied calmly, “You have half an hour to give me a satisfactory answer. If not, I’ll pay the Zell


    family a visit.”


    “No way! Is this how you ask for a favor?”


    Sydney was starting to get anxious. Who could stop Nash if he decided to visit the Zell family


    considering the power he held?


    Nash responded with a faint smile, “I’ve left you with an alternative.


    You can choose to trade the Antarctic Lotus for a favor from me.” He then ended the call.


    Sydney was perplexed. “What do I do now?”


    “The Antarctic Lotus is the only thing my grandmother left behind. My grandfather won’t want to part


    with it. But if Nash reallyes, there’ll probably be a huge confrontation.”


    With furrowed brows, Sydney hesitated, unsure of what to do. A contemting for three minutes, she


    decided to face the situatio and went downstairs.


    Grant weed Dn, and they entered the house while conversing jovially. Grant chuckled, saying,


    “Haha, it’s been three years, years, and you’ve changed vis again!”


    Dn was dressed in a ck suit and sported a slightly graying buzz cut, making him look about the


    same age as Fred.


    He gazed at his old friend’s grand mansion and remarked enviously,” If I had known this to be the


    oue, I would’ve joined you in your business ventures back then!”


    Grantughed heartily. “You’re doing pretty well now. You’re not that far behind either. You’ve climbed


    so high in the National Martial


    Bureau. Do you ever feel lonely at the top?”


    Dn waved his hand. “I’m just getting by. How can Ipare to a big boss like you?”


    The two men exchanged pleasantries. Sydney, in her haste, came down and said, “Grandfather, I have


    something to tell you.


    Nash had only given her half an hour, and she could not afford to think about whether there were any


    guests now.


    Seeing how Sydney had rushed down, Grant’s expression darkened.”


    Can’t you see I’m entertaining a guest now? You’re being so reckless.”


    His old schoolmate held a high position of authority. Three years ago, he had invited Dn to visit his


    home and asked him to seek revenge for his wife. He had been waiting for this day for three years. He


    absolutely could not tolerate his granddaughter’s careless behavior.


    He looked at Dn with an apologetic expression and introduced,


    This is my granddaughter, Sydney. Please forgive her youthful ignorance.”


    Dn looked at Sydney with a big smile on his face. “She was only five or six years old when I saw her


    last, right? Time passed so quickly. I recall her being three years younger than my grandson, so she


    should be close to graduating from university, yes?”

    Dn was amazed by his old schoolmate’s granddaughter, who was so beautiful. He then recalled that


    his grandson had not married yet.


    He considered that maybe they could be a couple. The Zells were a big family, so they might be able to


    support his son’s business.


    Grant replied, “Yes, she’ll graduate early next year.” Then, he looked at Sydney and asked sternly,


    “Sydney, why aren’t you greeting Dn properly?”


    At that moment, he thought what a silly child she was to have no eye for the situation at all.


    Sydney frowned and said, “Grandfather, I really have something. important to discuss with you!”
