In a luxurious office inside the mansion of the patriarch of the Becker family, the leader of this organization was sitting at the main post next to a beautiful mature woman.

Both he and she had beautiful red hair. But unlike the woman who looked to be in her early thirties, the patriarch Becker had some white hair mixed in with the red hair on his head and wrinkles on his face that showed his advanced age.

But even though he was much older than Elke\'s mother, Gomeric Becker had a high standard appearance that could easily attract and deceive inexperienced women.

As for Hilda Krüger, she had the same level of beauty as Elke, only with the charm of mature women, which that young woman was still far from achieving.

As she stood next to her husband, facing two men, they discussed the recent problem that was already hindering their plans.

"The Baier family is a household of incompetents! How can they let something so absurd happen to their young master?" Hilda said in an irritated manner as she looked at those high-level people in her family.

On the other hand, Gomeric was not one bit less dissatisfied than Hilda. He had a livid expression on his face, heavily pressing his jaw to the point that anyone could see that.

"That\'s extremely careless of them." He said this just after his wife. "What kind of family doesn\'t keep an eye on their most important offspring?"

"Having a bodyguard following young masters is the basics!"

One of those two nodded in agreement while looking at the two people set with their backs to a large glass door that gave a beautiful view into the central part of Peters City. "It seems that young master Alric escaped from his subordinates in an attempt to hide his tracks."

"He was trying to seek information from a young man from the Morning Star Academy, but due to a mistake by those who sold him such information, he went in search of \'justice.\'"

"Anyway, he wanted to do something foolish and distanced himself from his subordinates. But, unfortunately, his actions put him in that situation..."

The person next to that white-haired, fair-skinned man nodded, waving his long black beard. "Now, no one knows if he will be able to regain his manhood."

"He is still unconscious due to his injuries, so the Baier family has been looking for medicines and doctors even outside the province..."

"We have to keep an eye on that as they will try everything to get that young man back or at least pretend he has recovered. Even try a fake marriage to hide the truth about young master Alric." Such a person looked significantly at the Becker patriarch, indicating this worrisome possibility.

The Becker family naturally wanted to marry their young miss to some young master for their own sake and not that of other organizations!

In the first moment, a marriage could set in place or even create an alliance between powers, sometimes even between former enemies. But in the long run, the best benefits did not strictly come from this initial change.

The best benefits came with the offspring of the couple brought together by the greater interests of the two families!

In such a marriage model, a woman\'s family would only have valid benefits to justify the marriage in case her children had the opportunity to become influential within the other power.

After all, alliance relationships could end as quickly as they began. Still, a family was much harder to destroy, even in the cruel cultivation world.

On the other hand, it was only through the hands of a descendant of both families that an ambition to merge powers could be done without major plotting.

But thinking about the possibility that the Baier family might want to continue Alric and Elke\'s marriage even under the current circumstances went against the interests of House Becker!

Hence that fellow\'s concern!

"Tsk!"

"I hope those old men in the Baier family aren\'t thinking about it, or we may have to break the good relationship we\'ve had for the last 500 years." Elke\'s father said this coldly, not even considering allowing such a thing.

Hilda then sighed after these words were spoken, feeling that at least the news of the engagement of these two houses had not yet left their upper echelons.

Not even Elke knew of such a thing!

"At least a potential refusal on our part won\'t soil that family\'s name, so maybe we won\'t destroy our ties." She remarked this just before her group heard the large door of that office being slammed.

Pa! Pa!

A servant\'s voice then sounded through there. "Patriarch, the young miss is here as requested by madam."

"Oh? Let her in." Her father said this in a slightly less irritated tone.

After that, that beautiful young lady who had been getting involved with Lothur stopped beside her father and mother\'s work table, being watched by those four people.

"Mother, father, why do you want to see me? Is something wrong?" She asked as she first greeted the two elders in that place with a nod and then looked at those two people.

Her mother eased her previous expression and showed her a smile. "Elke, tell me how you are doing at the academy. You have been there for almost four months now. Is there any progress?"

"Hmmm. I think I\'ll move to Sector-2 in a few weeks." She said this with confidence.

"Oh? That\'s good." Hilda did not think her daughter\'s slowness was terrible since it was hard for a person with an ordinary talent like Elke to advance faster than that.

In any case, Elke\'s main characteristic was her ability to give an heir to the family that married her, not her power. As such, none of those people were concerned about the level of this woman.

They would be if she were a man, but since she was not, that was not a concern.

Men and women naturally could go as far as in the cultivation ranks. But while men were the natural heirs of this world, women hardly took on that role. And in House Becker, that was how things worked.

Consequently, since she would not lead this family anyway, and her value lay in producing heirs, even her mother was not disappointed by her talent.

It was a shame. Hilda and the patriarch felt this way since it meant that Elke would probably live little. But there were not many alternatives for them, and because of their feelings, they could not detest her just for that.

She could help the family and produce heirs for them. That was more than enough!

Hilda got to the point. "Elke, you are an adult now and will soon have to take on greater responsibilities in the family. Do you understand that?"

"Yes, mother." She answered truthfully, not liking the direction of this conversation.

"Good."

"Then you understand that we will soon find a good man for you."

"However, just because we will show you the \'way\' does not mean you will not be able to do anything for yourself." She took a piece of paper with several names on it from her ring and handed it to Elke.

"Here are some young men from the Morning Star Academy who have the potential to become your husband."

"We already have a favorite, but maybe things won\'t work out with him..." She did not reveal her family\'s secret agreement with House Baier.

But Hilda did not even need to do that. Elke was not dumb. She readily comprehended that as she saw the four names on that paper, where Alric\'s name was the first one there. \'I\'m glad Lothur crippled that person...\'

\'I won\'t have to stay with someone so pathetic, and I\'ll still have more time with a real man.\' She thought about this as she imagined how Lothur treated her and provoked her emotions.

She trusted him as she went along with the madness of their relationship. But deep in her heart, Elke knew how difficult it would be for them to be able to be happy together. As such, she understood that her time with him was not much, and she would probably have to marry one of those names.

Hence, she would at least no longer have to put up with someone like Alric!

She would prefer to stay with Lothur, but if she was forced to be with another man, she at least did not want to stay with someone she already knew had many flaws.

In any case, she would never say anything against her parents\' orders, much less talk about her feelings for Lothur. That would only make everything between them more challenging, which went against her interests.

She then remained silent, feeling her eyes grow watery as she listened to her mother.

"Anyway, you can try to get to know these people better, and we will take into consideration the one you like the most. Then, depending on the situation, you can stay with such a person."

"I understand." She weaved her head just before hearing a few more things and then left that place.

\'I will do nothing of the sort!\'

\'I will stay with Lothur as long as I can!\' She thought about it as she walked away from that place, with tears on her cheeks.
