Chapter 6421

"Testing you?'Jesse muttered under his breath, stunned.

Nashon stood up, walked next to the window, and looked at the garden for a while.

"None of the Islanders are simple. Often, we have to make costly sacrifices if we want to gain their trust. Shingen

must be very suspicious of US offering him a marriage. He thinks we're up to sschemes or this is in

preparation for something else.

"Meanwhile, the Shinto Way requires the help of our family to enter our country. However, he needs to be on his

guard in case we're up to no good. That's why we had this performance today.

"If I'm someone who values family ties, then he will be sure I won't betray my country for sbenefits. But if all

I care about is profit and care little for family, it will makethe best partner for him. That's why I'm saying that

instead of confirming the date of marriage, he's here to decide if he wants to work with us."

Nashon explained all his conjectures one by one, and it was enough to stop Jesse in his tracks. It was obvious

Jesse didn't expect someone quick to anger like Shingen would have so many hidden agendas.

"Looks like I've underestimated them far too much in the past,"

Jesse concluded.

"The Islanders have always been quite the invasive force from times immemorial," Nashon said. "It's just that

depending on the era, they do or do not need to hide their ambitions. Fortunately, they need to keep their

ambition in check during this era. That's why Shingen has been doing all these things that can be quite hard to

discern.

"After this, however. Shingen would believe that our family truly wants to cooperate with them. We have made

the right move this time."

Jesse then frowned and said, "But.... Is it worth it to sacrifice Yvonne just to make this move?’

Nashon glanced at Jesse. "Have I ever said I wanted to sacrifice her? Grow up. You're underestimatingif you

think I'm doing this just to deceive sIslanders. Find a way to inform Harvey what happened here today at

the most opportune time.

"Let him know that he needs to explain himself for keeping one of ours by his side without giving her the

appropriate status. Since they didn't want to explain themselves thus far... I will make them give US an

explanation!"

Jesse could sense sresentment in Nashon's words. He wanted to say something, but stopped in the final

moment.

When Harvey appeared at the entrance in front of Sky Corporation, it was the day after the Xaviers met with the

Islanders.

Ray, Tyson, George, and the others were all waiting for him for a long time.

When they saw Harvey coming in, they greeted Harvey with respect. Sof them had even prepared all kinds

of occultic objects to try and ward off whatever curses haunting Harvey.

Harvey couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "All of you aren't youngsters anymore. Don't you think it's a bit

childish for you to do this?"

Ray smiled honestly, "This is not for you, sir. Ms. Yvonne prepared this for you."

"Really?' Harvey nodded. Among those who followed him, only Yvonne was this detail-oriented. 'Where is she?"
