Seeing Hades’ expression, Yaroslav struck while the iron was hot and said, “The Ancient Four have already fallen out, and Tobias is pushing James out right now to get rid of the other three families before the Mount Thunder Conference. Tobias has already allied with the King. The Cadens will help the King eliminate dissidents and consolidate his position.”
Bang!
Hades slammed the table, causing it to break.
He said furiously, “Never! The Johnstons will never fall prey to the Cadens! I’d like to see if James has the ability to touch the Johnstons!”
An imperceptible smile formed on Yaroslav’s face, and he continued, “Hades, the three families have to unite to protect each other. I came here for the sole purpose of uniting the three families and dealing with James. We must deal a blow to the Cadens by capturing James alive and forcing him to hand over the painting’s secret.”
The suggestion slightly tempted Hades.
However, he did not agree to it immediately. Instead, he glanced at Yaroslav and said, “Mr. Gabriel, you should head back first. I’ll hold a family meeting to decide on this matter.
“Send our guests off,” Hades instructed the family servants and walked away to leave.
After leaving the Johnstons’ compound, Yaroslav asked, “Madelyn, do you think the Johnstons will agree to our suggestion?”
Madelyn said confidently, “Yes, he’ll definitely agree to it. The Johnstons suspect the Cadens of stealing their painting. They’ll believe it’s true since James has suddenly become so strong. They’ll definitely be tempted to capture and interrogate James about the family painting. Even if they don’t cooperate with us, they’ll privately deal with James. If James was in trouble, he wouldn’t have the time to get rid of you, and you’ll survive until the Mount Thunder Conference.”
Yaroslav smiled and said, “You’re the best, Madelyn. All my effort training you all these years was not in vain.”
Madelyn said, “Next, we have to visit the Sullivans and the Lees. We’ll use the same method since I’m sure the three families are all desperate to find out the secret of their family paintings. After all, the secret could make one a powerhouse in a very short period. Anyone would be tempted by it.”
“Haha! We’ll make them fight among themselves!” Yaroslav laughed loudly.
Next, the two visited the Sullivans and the Lees.
The two families were shocked after learning that James was the old man in disguise.
