Chapter 2568
Tourmaline Estate had never been this quiet at night as it was tonight. There were fewer guards patrolling the estate tonight as well. Those who did not know what was going on were shocked by the weakened defenses of Tourmaline Estate.
"Why is Tourmaline Estate so silent tonight? Where are the guards who usually patrol the estate? They must be slacking off since I'm not here." Grayson, who noticed the weakened defenses around Tourmaline Estate the moment he arrived in front of the tower, was infuriated.
"Brother Grayson, Sir Ares ordered us to surround the estate with as few guards as possible tonight," one of Grayson's subordinates reported to him anxiously.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Grayson was beyond shocked. "A lot of things have been happening lately. Someone schemed against Jens as well. Why would Sir Ares make such an arrangement?"
Storm said, "Sir Ares has never made a wrong move. He must have his reasons for doing so this time around."
Grayson rolled his eyes at him and said, "Of course, I know that Sir Ares must have made such arrangements for a reason.
However, I don't understand the purpose of him doing so."
Storm pondered upon it while he said, "If he lowers the defenses around the estate on purpose, it would be easier for the bad people to enter the estate without facing any disruptions."
He thought about things from another perspective. Sir Ares would not let any bad people enter the estate. Was he letting a friend in?
"Will a guest be paying us a visit tonight?"
Grayson was stunned. "A guest? I've been with Sir Ares for such a long time. I've seen all his guests. Who else can it be?" Storm said, "If you'd like to find out the answer, don't sleep tonight."
In the middle of the night, gusts of chilling wind billowed through the air as the cold, silver moonlight shone on the ground.
The trees cast dark shadows against the wall. The few of them hid behind the wall as they stared outside from time to time.
"Are you guys sure that this is the best vantage point? Why can't I see anything?" Grayson asked softly.
"Who told you that this was the best vantage point?! This is just the best hiding spot. If you want to get a good view, head to the top of the tower." Grayson glanced at the tall tower. It was completely bare, and nothing was covering it at all. If he headed up there to get a good view of the estate and shocked the guest, Sir Ares would definitely teach him a lesson.
Grayson shook his head and said, "Never mind, it's safer for me to stay here."
After that, they experienced a long wait...
They waited from the first half of the night till late at night...
Not even a bird flew in.
Grayson and the others felt extremely drowsy. They tried to prevent their eyelids from closing, but they did not notice anyone out of the ordinary entering the estate Finally, the sun rose. Grayson and the others yawned as they prepared toreturn to their rooms to get some sleep.
After returning to Chateau de Selene, Sir Ares noticed that all of them had dark circles under their eyes. He glared at them darkly.
"What did you do last night?"
Storm felt the most guilty among them. "Sir, we were outside..."
"We were watching the stars," Baby Robbie told Sir Ares.
Sir Ares laughed. Baby Robbie was the only person who dared to come up with excuses in front of him. Baby Robbie did not cause trouble, but he was fearless.
"You were watching the stars?" Sir Ares asked in a dark and heavy tone.
He then glanced at the exhausted looks on their faces and chuckled. "It's good that you're back. I'm about to welcome a friend to the estate. This person is your opponent. You guys should stay here to greet him before leaving."
Baby Robbie asked in a direct tone, "Daddy, who is it?"
Sir Ares said, "After not seeing you guys for such a long time, I'm curious about whose martial arts have improved the most among all of you."
Baby Robbie's e's martial arts were
outstanding among his peers from his generation and the previous generation. Grayson and the others felt even more curious about the guest's identity since Sir Ares was comparing him with Baby Robbie.
That person must be someone who possessed elite martial art skills.
