Chapter 541 Yareth Died With Regrets

At ten in the evening, Jonathan took a break in the house where Yareth had lived before his death.

Torrence and the others had already returned to Yaleview with Mabel. Jonathan had a lot of matters toattend to, but he had to postpone them due to the mourning period. Recognizing that Jonathan neededtime and space, Mabel and the others decided not to disturb him.

During this time, Beatrix took the opportunity to return to Lostaria to visit her master, Richard.

The dim yellow glow from the lights inside the house added to the antique ambiance, a setting Yarethhad grown accustomed to and preferred. He did not favor bright lights, which was why the old househad become his favorite place.

Jonathan and Bruce were sitting and chatting in the parlor.

Bruce's graying sideburns made him look exceptionally old. “Mr. Jeremiah and the others are justhaving a hard time accepting Old Mr. Harrington's death, Mr. Lawson. I hope you won't hold it againstthem.”

Jonathan nodded and replied, “Mr. Parker, don't worry. No matter what they do, I won't hold it againstthem. I'll let it slide for the sake of Grandpa and Catherine.”

Bruce nodded, saying, “Now that Mr. Lawson is here, I believe Old Mr. Harrington can rest in peace.”

A pang of sorrow hit Jonathan hard. After a moment of silence, he turned and asked, “Mr. Parker, arethere still no updates about Catherine?”

Sorrow flickered in Bruce's eyes. He shook his head and responded, “There's no news about her. OldMr. Harrington has been constantly thinking about you and Catherine. It's a pity that he didn't get to seeCatherine.”

Jonathan clenched his fists, saying, “It's all my fault. I failed to protect Grandpa and Catherine.”

“Please don't think like that, Mr. Lawson. How could you blame yourself? Old Mr. Harrington alreadyknew this would happen about a year ago,” said Bruce.

A flash of deep regret and self-reproach crossed Jonathan's eyes, but in the end, he said nothing more.

Suddenly, something popped into Jonathan's mind. He asked, “By the way, Mr. Parker, how is Alicia? Isshe all right?”

“She's now pursuing her studies in Ustrana. We've hired a maid specifically to take care of her. She'sdoing well, so don't worry about her, Mr. Lawson.” Bruce paused before adding, “Alicia is a verysensible child, and she also respects Catherine's decision!”

Jonathan nodded, then asked in detail for Alicia's address and contact information. He had made uphis mind to visit her when he was free. After all, he had promised Lucille he would take good care ofher. I owe my life to the Lunar Pendant, so I must never forget her kindness. We should always begrateful to people who have lent us a hand when we need assistance.

“So, Mr. Parker, what other plans do you have for the future?” Jonathan asked Bruce again.

Bruce replied, “Mr. Lawson, if you don't mind, I would like to stay here permanently. I don't have any

children, and now that Old Mr. Harrington is gone, I really don't know what to do.”

Jonathan nodded, saying, “I feel the same way. Mr. Parker. You've taken care of Grandpa all your life,so now let us take care of you. Before I go, I'll leave some money for you, so you don't have to worryabout finances!”

Bruce was touched by his remark. “Mr. Lawson, you're indeed a kind and generous man.”

With a smile, Jonathan said, “I'm just doing what I should. If I fail to take good care of you, not only will Ibe unable to face Grandpa in heaven, but Catherine would also blame me!”

As the two were in conversation, a housekeeper entered and said, “Mr. Lawson, Bruce, sorry tointerrupt. Mr. Jeremiah and Mr. Brendan have arrived. They wish to see you, Mr. Lawson.”

Jonathan froze for a moment before responding, “Please let them in.”

“All right, Mr. Lawson,” the housekeeper said before leaving the parlor.

Bruce turned to Jonathan with a worried expression, “Mr. Lawson, if they were to accidentally offendyou, please, you mustn't—”

Jonathan interjected, “Don't worry, Mr. Parker, I understand.”

Bruce's unease lingered, prompting him to position himself slightly behind Jonathan. Jonathan allowedBruce to assume his chosen spot.

After a while, Jonathan heard the sound of footsteps approaching.

He stood up and walked to the door to welcome Jeremiah and Brendan. As they saw Jonathanstanding before them, their gazes were overwhelmed with mixed reactions.

“Jon.” Jeremiah sounded gentle.

Bruce was taken aback for a moment, wondering how Jeremiah had suddenly transformed into acompletely different person.

Jonathan said, “Uncle Jeremiah, Uncle Brendan, please come in and have a seat.” His tone struck abalance between humility and confidence, neither overly warm nor unwelcoming.

His courteous invitation made Jeremiah and Brendan feel even more uneasy.

With everyone settled in their seats, Jonathan's demeanor stayed composed. He inquired, “UncleJeremiah, Uncle Brendan, what brings you here at this hour?”

Upon exchanging glances with Brendan, Jeremiah spoke. “Jon, we've decided to acknowledge you asthe head of the family.”

Brendan chimed in, “From now on, your uncle and I will fully support you. We hope that you can putaside any unpleasantness that has occurred between us. Let's just let bygones be bygones.”

Bruce was left speechless. He could not fathom what Jonathan had done to make Jeremiah andBrendan, who usually carried themselves with pride and arrogance, lower their stance and speak tohim in such a humble tone.

“The unpleasantness between us is not worth mentioning,” Jonathan said lightly, “Uncle Jeremiah,Uncle Brendan, don't worry. No hard feelings.” He paused, then continued, “Actually, I just feel a littleupset.”

“Upset?” Jeremiah asked in puzzlement.

Brendan, too, had a flummoxed look on his face.

Jonathan laughed self-deprecatingly and said, “I feel sorry for Grandpa.”

“Jon, we don't quite understand what you're saying,” Brendan muttered hesitantly.

“Is that so? It makes sense you don't understand what I just said.” Jonathan stood up and continued, “Iknow why you came to see me today. It's simply because I've killed a few big shots from the Langetonfamily, and you're terrified. You're afraid that I might kill you, too, aren't you?”

Jeremiah and Brendan instantly turned pale. With a trembling voice, Jeremiah asked, “Did you reallykill them?”

A sharp glint flashed in Jonathan's eyes as he replied, “You're right, Uncle Jeremiah. I killed them. Butdo you know why I had to?”

Bruce was momentarily stunned, but soon, a flash of approval crossed his eyes. The news wasshocking, but Bruce quickly understood Jonathan's intentions.

Jonathan continued, “I killed them for you, Uncle Jeremiah and Uncle Brendan. In fact, I did that

primarily for Grandpa and the Harrington family's sake. I won't be staying here forever. Now thatGrandpa has passed away, all the families will be eyeing us, trying to take us down. If I don't takedrastic measures, who will suppress them for you after I leave? Who will ensure your safety? With thedeath of the Langetons, everyone will know that they came to cause trouble at the mourning hall today.Who would dare to offend the Harringtons again in the future when they learned that they died rightafter causing a scene?”

At this point, Jonathan cast a cold glance at Jeremiah and said, “Today, you questioned Grandpa, andhe passed away, feeling upset. Do you know what he was thinking before he died? I'm sure he musthave been utterly down-spirited because his sons don't understand his father! Grandpa knew a yearago that he only had one year left to live, so he arranged for Catherine and me to get married to protectyou and the Harrington family. He appointed me as the head of the family, also to safeguard you all.Otherwise, who among you could handle the Langetons as it is today? It's a pity that you peopledismissed the efforts Grandpa put in as worthless. He spent his whole life protecting you, and even indeath, he made arrangements for your future. But Uncle Jeremiah and Uncle Brendan, have you evertruly understood Grandpa's intentions? I bet all this while, you just can't wait for him to die, can you?”

Bruce turned to Jonathan with a worried expression, “Mr. Lawson, if they were to accidentally offendyou, please, you mustn't—”

Jeremiah and Brendan's faces turned deathly pale.

At that moment, Jeremiah's body began to tremble. He buried his face in his hands and started to sobuncontrollably.

Brendan's eyes also turned bloodshot, his face full of shame.

Jonathan's expression remained indifferent. Whether Jeremiah and Brendan were genuinelyremorseful at this moment, or they were merely putting up an act, it no longer mattered to himanymore.

Jonathan stood up and declared, “I've done what I can and even did what I shouldn't do. From now on,you're on your own!” After saying that, he strode away from the Harrington residence.

Jeremiah and Brendan stood in silence, watching Jonathan walk away. After a long while, Brendancouldn't contain his curiosity any longer, “Where's he going? Doesn't he plan to stay with the Harringtonfamily?”

Staring into the distance, Bruce replied, “Mr. Lawson's only intention is to protect the Harrington family.He has no desire to seize control of the family.”

Tears still glistened in Jeremiah's eyes as he asked, “What makes you say so?”

Bruce replied, “Mr. Jeremiah, what you deem important might be insignificant in the eyes of Mr.Lawson. With his capabilities, the wealth and power he desires are within easy reach. He has no needto take over the Harrington family!”

Some people might perceive an iPhone as valuable and important, but to some wealthy people, it wasas ordinary as a bun in a bakery store.

Meanwhile, Jonathan took a stroll under the night sky instead of driving.

Under the vast expanse of the starry sky, he walked alone, surrounded by profound tranquility.

At this moment, Jonathan buried his anger and hatred deep within his heart.

When one lacks strength, engaging in discussions fueled by hatred and anger is an immature act.Jonathan vowed to gradually improve himself until the day he could kill Ignatius in front of Tristan. Afterthat, he would capture Tristan, making him kneel and apologize at his mother's grave.

He would one day repay the hatred that Tristan had sowed in his heart years ago. I'll never forgive him.He'll reap what he sowed! A weakling talking about kindness and forgiveness is nothing but a display ofcowardice. All things in this world are illusory and unpredictable. They are as ephemeral as dewdropsor a flash of lightning.

The next day, Jonathan gathered Mabel, Aurora, Torrence, Yeverie, and Walrion.

Walrion finally made it there last night.

Everyone convened for a meeting at Jeff's mansion, a place that was tranquil and secluded.

On the other hand, Jeff, a man with a jam-packed schedule, hurried off to attend to his numerousaffairs.

Firstly, Jonathan confirmed all his storage rings could no longer function effectively, rendering themmere collectibles now.

The second matter was that Jonathan had given the Luminous Sword to Torrence. However, since thesword made traveling difficult, Torrence could not carry it everywhere. Therefore, Jonathan decided tokeep it on his behalf temporarily.

The third matter was that they had arranged for Torrence to take up the identity of a Chanaean.

The fourth matter, which was also the main topic of the meeting, centered around devising strategiesfor reclaiming Eastsummer.
