Chapter 1481
Carl had a look of helplessness as well. He could only give himself a facepalm at that moment and think about how
he was going to report this development to Zane's organization.
Unbeknownst to them, Zane was at the main base when his phone suddenly vibrated. He was having a drink of
water, and when he grabbed hold of his phone, he was left stunned, whereupon he spat out whatever was in his
mouth.
"The sixth-generation owner of the fire crest... Nicole Riddle?!" he asked, as the Reby Family Crest was a legend
that Zane had heard of when he was younger.
He had never thought that he would ever receive a news of this sort until he was old enough to have children and
grandchildren of his own.
Moreover, he did not expect to receive news about the owner of the Reby Family Crests today, for it was something
that had not happened in the past hundred years.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt'Those who possess the Reby Family Crest has the authority to enlist all of the families who had joined the alliance
during the Holy War that had transpired hundreds of years ago. Now that these families have all become ancient
families, all of them are descendants of those who used to be around. If the owner does make an appearance, all
of the families will need to obey them without question. It's like how all of the people had to gather their might for
the commander of the Reby Family during the Holy War,' Zane thought.
However, what shocked Zane even more was that the name of the crest's owner was none other than Nicole
Riddle.
'Could it be someone who shares her first and last name?!' he wondered.
However, his eye inexplicably twitched, as he had a bad feeling about this. He could not help but look at the location
from which the message was sent.
'Lanningbourg? Isn't that the place Carl where Carl is carrying his mission out?’ Zane pondered.
It was then that he felt his heart clench.
'But Nicole shouldn't be there!' he thought again.
With this in mind, he dialed Carl's number.
Concurrently, Carl was in the midst of thinking of a way to explain everything that had happened to Zane, and
hence, when his phone burred, he jumped.
He shot his phone a glance, his face brimming with guilt. As expected, it was a call from Zane. Carl’s face blanched
at an instant.
"Nicole... Uncle Zane..."
Nicole looked at him, mildly shocked.
'Uncle Zane got the news so quickly? Could he...' she thought.
Upon noticing Carl's expression of fear and cowardice, she snatched the phone from him.
"Hello, Uncle Zane?”
The moment Zane heard Nicole's voice, he dropped his cup onto the ground, and it shattered into many pieces.
Not having the time to worry about the cup, he roared, "Nicole?! Why are you in Lanningbourg?!"
'That girl, Nicole. Is she actually in Lanningbourg? Does this mean that she's very likely the person who possesses
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe crest?' he thought.
Nicole moved the phone further away after Zane had bellowed at her, and in the calmest way she could, she
replied, "You've received the news very quickly. Are the antecedents of the Zane's organization related to the Reby
family?"
Zane instantly choked upon hearing her astute question.
'1 haven't even asked her about what she had done, and she is already turning things around?!' he thought.
In response, Zane suppressed his anger and said, "Depart home immediately. I need you to explain things clearly to
me in person. I need to know exactly what had happened."
With a tone of resignation, Nicole replied, "Alright. Coincidentally, I also have something I need to ask you."
Zane grew even more furious with each passing second. He was livid, but as Nicole had made it a point to calm him
down, he had nowhere to unleash it.
"Well talk when you're back!" he roared.
Then, he hung up on her.
Carl looked at Nicole fearfully. "What happened? Was Uncle Zane furious?'
