However, if she could head to Aurous Hill to talk about the collaboration with Young Master Wade tonight, regardless of how their discussion related to the collaboration would end, she would certainly be able t o depart for Johnstul Peninsula from Aurous Hill tomorrow morning.

Aurous Hill was very close to Johnstul Peninsula, and the journey would take her only a little more than an hour by high-speed rail. 6

This would not affect her original plan at all, and instead of slowing her down, it would be even faster for her. 2

So, Yashita agreed without any hesitation as she said politely, "I do not have any problems with that, but I'll have to trouble you to arrange all the itineraries here, then."

Isaac smiled and said, "These are all trivial matters. Madam Harker, please give me your detailed address. I'll arrange for a helicopter to go there first."

"Okay!"

After Yashita had given Isaac the specific address of the Harker family mansion, the both of them said goodbye to each other before hanging up the phone.

As soon as she hung up the phone, Holden could not help but say excitedly, "This is truly a situation where I'm getting what I was wishing for! I was just looking for an opportunity to see if we could get connected to the Wade family or the Golding family, and as result, the Wade family's phone call came through!"

Yashita nodded, but there were still some things that she could not figure out. So, she felt a little doubtful as she said, "Dad, I cannot really understand why the Wade family would take the initiative to approach us?"

Holden blurted out, "It must be because they want to go against the Schulz family! That must be the reason why they thought to rope us in!"

Yashita shook her head as she said, "In my impression, the Wade family has never had any high demands for a martial arts family."

Holden waved his hand and said, "Even if they did not have it in the past, this does not mean that they cannot have it now. Perhaps they simply want to win a martial arts family over so that they can improve their overall strength?"

"That does not seem right either." Yashita continued seriously, "After the Schulz family met with an accident, many of the wealthy and prestigious families seemed to have restrained themselves. In the past, they could use a martial arts family to come up with all sorts of petty tricks behind their backs. But now, they do not dare to mess around anymore. So, it seems as though the Wade family should not suddenly try to win us over at this time."

As she spoke, Yashita said again, "Besides, there is still something else that I cannot seem to understand."

Holden hurriedly asked, "What is it?"

Yashita said, "Mr. Cameron, the person who made the phone call, wants me to go to Aurous Hill to meet with their young master. But shouldn't the Wade family be in Eastcliff? Even if they have some power in Aurous Hill, judging from the size of Aurous Hill, why would the young master of the Wade family need to personally assume command in a second-tier city like that?"

Holden frowned as he asked her, "Do you think that there is some fraud behind this matter?"

Yashita shook her head and said, "I don't think that there is any fraud within this matter. I simply feel that it is a little weird, and it seems as though certain things do not make sense. Moreover, even if the Wade family wants to talk to us, they should not be looking for me. Ever since I lost an arm, I rarely show myself in public or get into the limelight at all. Many people do not even know of my identity. So, how did they manage to contact me directly? Not only that, they even called me by name and said that their young master only wanted to collaborate with me?"

Holden was also a little puzzled, and he muttered to himself as he said, "It sounds a little illogical indeed. Do you want to call them back and ask about it clearly, then?"

Yashita thought for a moment before she said, "Forget it. I'll just go and take a look. I don't think it's a trap. After all, I cannot think of anyone who would want to deliberately scheme just to deal with me."

As she spoke, she said again, "I'll talk to their young master first when I arrive at night and try to get a result out of it. That way, I'll be able to take the first high-speed rail to Johnstul Peninsula early in the morning tomorrow. It would be much faster for me as compared to if I were to set off from here directly."

"Yes!" Holden nodded before he said, "If you meet with any circumstances when the time comes, you have to contact me immediately!" 5
