Chapter 655 - Brain Storming

Erina sat on her bed with her head low. She definitely wasn\'t feeling well after hearing the news about her Stepmother\'s plans.

"You shouldn\'t be saying such a thing right now, Uncle. I am sure there is a right time for everything." James muttered with a calm look on his face.

"It\'s good being young, but you should know your limits. Besides, there isn\'t any meaning in hiding the truth. It has to come in front one day or the other." The middle aged man just shook his head.

"I know my limits." Axel finally spoke as he raised his head to look at James. It was as if he wasn\'t talking to the middle aged man but the guy in front of him. "And, you will find about it one day as well.."

He then turned his head towards the middle aged man and smiled, "She is within my limit too. You can go ahead, do what you want to. But, you are not getting her away from me."

Axel held her hand and pulled it out of the blanket before showing it to the middle aged man.

Erina turned her head to look at Axel for a while. His acting really was convincing. Even she felt that it was real for once.

\'If only…\' She suddenly shook her head internally. She sure was going crazy under pressure. There was no need to be so depressed. There would definitely be a way to solve this problem. She just needed to have a talk with her father about it.

Until then, she could just lie about having a boyfriend and avoid this matter.

"At least, you have some confidence. But, time will tell.." The middle aged man smiled, looking at Axel.

"I think we should leave now. We might be disturbing them.." James got up with a smile.

Axel looked at the guy, and closely observed his action.

The middle aged man was the one who was talking the most here. But, Axel felt that this guy\'s silence was not so simple. This person had withdrawn from the competition to take the full advantage of his brother\'s absence and consolidate his power within his House.

Yet, he now had time to make a visit for Erina when she wasn\'t even serious.

Something definitely seemed fishy here.

\'What game are you trying to play?\' Axel wasn\'t going to get beaten by likes of his for sure. Max had made it clear that this guy was the prime suspect behind Lear\'s condition. He had done something that even Max was unable to predict. He was definitely someone who couldn\'t be underestimated.

James and the middle aged man soon walked out of the room and left the place.

Axel began to summarize everything that happened with their arrival. To be honest, there wasn\'t much. He could only think of the warning given to him and the information about Erina\'s stepmother\'s plans.

Erina looked at Axel, who was deep in thought. He was still holding her hands tightly. She opened her mouth to ask him to let go, but suddenly stopped for some reason.

She couldn\'t help but once again looked at her hand, the warmth didn\'t feel bad to her.

In the end, she let it be and turned her head towards the other side to picked her phone. It was to prepare for the thing which Axel had asked.

Axel on the other hand was still busy thinking. He seemed to have honestly hit a dead end.

He could only think that they were here to warn Erina and Axle to break off whatever they had in between them. But, if it was James, would he do things in this way? That evil scheming guy was not that good.

Besides, the way Axel had declared his bravery by willing to face even the Scarlet Lord according to viral videos, it made it very obvious that he had the heart of steel.

So, threats weren\'t going to work.

It should have been very obvious.

\'They knew it wouldn\'t work, they knew it was going to have the opposite effect. And, yet they still did it. Were they aiming for it?\' Axel suddenly frowned, and the next moment his eyes went wide at a certain possibility.

Wilson had been exiled after rebelling.

Were these guys planning to make Erina do the same?

Axel\'s eyes slowly turned grim. This explanation honestly made a lot of sense.

He immediately turned his head towards Erina planning to ask her something to further solidify his theory. But, the moment he turned his head, he was surprised.

Her eyelids had fallen, and she was in deep sleep.

Her phone was open on the bed. And, Axel could see the contact detail that he had been here for in it.

He tried to move his hand to pull his phone out, but realized that it was still in Erina\'s grasp. He looked at his hand for a second, and then just used his other to get the job done.

\'Let\'s just hope this works..\' Axel prayed inwardly as he sent the video footage that Max had forwarded to him. As for staying anonymous, Axel had more than enough knowledge to be able to hide his identity online.

Luck seemed to be in his favor, and a reply came in a minute.

Who is this?

Answer me!

If anything happens to her, you people will pay!

Three messages popped up with an interval of 5 to 10 seconds.

\'Tsk…I bet it\'s the artifact that got him fired..\' Axel shook his head.

The video actually wasn\'t something that would move these people. But, that one shot which had the artifact in it was definitely more than enough to make these people go crazy. After all, if they lost it, then it was gone. The Supreme power and all the secrets behind it would disappear along with it.

<<Done!>> Axel replied to Max with a smile on his face.

It was time to leave.

But, it didn\'t seem that his hand would be coming out any second soon.
