Chapter 1434
The guests inside the banquet hall froze.
“What’s that noise p>
“What’s happening outside p>
“Don’t tell me something else is going wrong p>
Having just survived the chaos involving Alaric and the Obsidian Sun, hearing such
a massive commotion instantly set everyone’s nerves on edge.
Jerrick’s gaze snapped up, his eyes turning lethal.
Jasper dropped his lazy smirk. He twirled his fingers slightly, his eyes darkening. “Round two p>
The gentle warmth in Julian’s eyes vanished. He shifted his stance, forming a protective barricade with his two brothers, shielding Serena behind them.
Catherine instinctively squeezed Serena’s hand. “Serena p>
Serena patted her mother’s hand lightly, her clear eyes perfectly calm.
She highly doubted the Obsidian Sun would launch another move this quickly.
After all, Alaric had only just been taken into custody.
Right now, the Obsidian Sun’s absolute priority was silencing Alaric and burying every secret attached to him.
Moments later, Alfred sprinted into the hall.
The man, well over fifty, ran until his face was flushed. He was panting heavily, completely abandoning the dignified composure he usually maintained.
“Mr. Lancaster! Sir! Madam! Mr. Lancaster p>
The sheer panic on his face sent everyone’s hearts sinking.
Edward’s eyes went icy. “Speak p>
“Out… Outside Alfred swallowed hard. His expression was a bizarre mix of terror, joy, and sheer bewilderment.
Old Mr. Lancaster furrowed his brows. “What’s outside? Stop stammering and spit it out p>
Alfred pointed toward the doors, his voice laced with shock. “Outside… there are so many private jets! And helicopters! They’re all circling the manor p>
Edward frowned. “Private jets p>
Alfred nodded frantically. “That’s not all! There are helicopter fleets and drone swarms! The entire airspace above the manor is covered p>
“They’re circling the perimeter, dropping banners p>
Catherine blinked in surprise. “Banners p>
Alfred nodded vigorously. “Yes! Every single one is a banner welcoming the Miss home p>
The crowd was completely floored.
Someone gasped out loud. “Private jets? Entire fleets p>
And banners?
“Who has the power to pull off something this massive p>
.n
“That shouldn’t be possible. This royal-grade estate; the airspace restrictions are incredibly tight Normal private planes can’t even get close p>
“Whoever managed to fly in must have an unimaginable background p>
Hearing the whispers, Old Mr. Lancaster instinctively looked at Edward. “Did you arrange this p>
“No,” Edward frowned.
Catherine looked equally clueless.
She had certainly prepared many surprises for her daughter.
But fleets of private planes, aerial banners, and drone swarms? That was definitely not her doing.
Jasper looked utterly baffled. “It wasn’t me, either. I wanted to go big like this, but Julian and Jerrick shot it down p>
Jerrick shot him a cold glare. “You sound disappointed p>
Jasper’s eyes went wide. “Who wouldn’t be disappointed when it comes to showing off for my sister? Something this flashy was
supposed to be my gift to her Now someone else beat me to it, how could I not be disappointed?!” Cóntent
Seeing that no one in the family had arranged the spectacle, Old Mr. Lancaster furrowed his brows and marched toward the exit, leaning.
heavily on his game. “Let’s go have look p>
The guests couldn’t sit still either.
One by one, they surged toward the open-air terrace.
Serena, holding her mother’s hand, walked out with them.
