Chapter 91 A Request from the Stewart Family
It had been a considerable time since Caspian’s last visit to Southlake Corporation. This
time, he walked directly into the CEO’s office.
“Mr. Lynch, when did you return?” Miranda asked. She was clearly surprised by his
unexpected presence.
She was unaware of Caspian’s return, as Willow had not mentioned anything about him
being back in the company.
“I came back after wrapping up some business. Let’s talk inside the office,” Caspian
replied.
“Of course,” Miranda nodded and followed Caspian into his office.
“How’s everything with Willow at the company?” he inquired.
“I’ve been assisting Mrs. Lynch, and everything is running smoothly,” Miranda replied
respectfully.
She was keenly aware that despite Caspian’s low profile, he was far from an ordinary
individual.
After all, he had left a substantial impression at her wedding, with John stepping in!
Inviting such influential figures like John wasn’t something just anyone could do.
A person with such strength who remained low profile was a rarity for Miranda, leaving her
deeply captivated by his enigmatic presence.

Despite her disappointment upon discovering his marriage, Miranda felt truly honored to
work under him.
“Thank you for being present at my mom’s funeral,” Caspian remarked as Willow had
already informed him about Miranda’s present that day.
“You knew about that?” Miranda asked, taken aback.
“That’s right, Willow told me about that,” he replied casually.
“Mr. Lynch, please accept my condolences,” Miranda said solemnly.
“My mom’s funeral was rather subdued. I’ll organise a memorial service in two days, and I
hope you’ll attend,” Caspian stated thoughtfully.
“Of course! I’ll be there without a doubt,” Miranda replied.
Caspian’s invitation was a gesture of respect, and Miranda appreciated the sentiment.

“That’s alright. You can go and handle your business now,” Caspian said.

He then contemplated how to handle the Flying Dragons and the York family.
To everyone’s surprise, the past few days had been unusually calm, with no signs of
activity from the York family or the Flying Dragons.
Nevertheless, they would all bow before Lilith’s grave in two days. Julian’s troops were
already assembled outside Southlake City.
Regardless of what the Flying Dragons and the York family did in the next two days, their
fate would be the same after two days.
With this in mind, Caspian made a phone call to Sylvia.
“Caspian, what’s going on?” she answered.
“In two days, we’ll be holding a memorial service for my mother. I need you to prepare for
it,” Caspian said.
“Sure, I’ll handle it,” Sylvia replied.
“On the day of the memorial, I want all of Southlake City’s media companies, television
stations, and any large screens to broadcast scenes of my mom and those bastards
fighting.” Caspian’s voice grew somber.

He continued, “I want everyone in know that my mom was a heroine who was murdered
by the scum from the Flying Dragons and the York family.”
“Understood,” Sylvia replied.
“Tell Julian to prepare some wreaths and banners. The memorial should be grand,”
Caspian instructed.
“I’ll relay the message right away,” Sylvia assured him.
“In two days, have the troops enter Southlake City and crush the York family and the
Flying Dragons no matter what!” Caspian added.
“Understood, Lord Caspian,” Sylvia acknowledged.
Meanwhile, Willow received an unexpected call from Marilyn when she was working.
It was a rare occurrence for Marilyn to call personally, leaving Willow curious about the
reason
behind the call.
“Grandma, is everything okay?” Willow asked politely.
“Willow, everything’s fine. It’s just that I’ve missed you, and it’s been so long since we last
met,” Marilyn said.

She continued, “The Stewart family is hosting a family dinner tonight, and I’d love for and
Caspian to join us for a meal. I also want to spend some quality time with you.
you
“A family dinner?” Willow hesitated momentarily, her bad memories of the last family
dinner were still fresh.
“That’s right. I’m specifically inviting you this time. Let’s all come together and enjoy each
other’s company. Rest assured that no one will dare to speak ill of you this time,” Marilyn
reassured while smiling.
“Okay, I’ll come after work.” Willow readily agreed.
“Remember to bring Caspian along,” Marilyn reminded her.
Since it was a family dinner, it seemed only suitable to include Caspian.
“I’ll talk to him and see if he’d like to come,” Willow said.
“Alright, whether Caspian joins or not, your presence is a must,” Marilyn stressed.
In her mind, Caspian’s attendance was optional, but Willow’s presence was indispensable.
Caspian had barely ended one call when Willow’s call came through.
“What’s going on, Willow?” Caspian inquired.
“There’s a family dinner at the Stewart Residence today. Grandma called and invited us,‘
Willow explained.
”
“Another family dinner?” Caspian’s expression hinted at a growing headache just hearing
those words.
“Yeah. Are you up for it?” Willow asked.
“I’m okay with it. If you’re going, count me in,” Caspian replied.
He was determined to stick close to Willow and shield her from any potential threats the
York family or the Flying Dragons might pose. He couldn’t afford to let her out of his sight.
“I’ve already agreed to go back for family dinner,” Willow informed him.
“Alright, then I’ll go with you,” Caspian said.

Caspian had some free time, so he spent the entire day alone in the CEO’s office to ensure
Willow’s safety.
As Willow was about to finish work, he headed downstairs and waited for her in the
parking

“How long have you been here?” Willow asked with surprise as she approached him in the
parking lot.
“I just got here a little while ago. I’m here to take you back to the Stewart Residence,”
Caspian replied.
“Okay, let’s go. I assume the Rolls–Royce is with you, too. We can each drive our cars,”
Willow suggested.
Her car had been parked in the corporation’s parking lot, as she felt more insecure leaving
it there than in the villa’s garage. So, Willow planned to drive her car back to the villa
today.
“Of course,” Caspian agreed with a nod.
Subsequently, Willow settled into the driver’s seat of the Rolls–Royce while Caspian trailed
behind in the Ferrari. They drove toward the Stewart Residence, one following the other.
Upon their arrival at the Stewart Residence, Alicia and Richard had also just p
cars.

The Stewarts noticed Caspian and Willow arriving in their luxurious cars and warmly
welcomed them as they stepped out of their vehicles.
Alicia and Richard couldn’t help but feel jealous when they saw the Stewarts‘ enthusiastic
welcome of Caspian and Willow.
However, they had no option but to stand aside, their resentment palpable.
The Stewart family dinner officially began after everyone was present.
“Willow, the Stewart family business is facing challenging times. If things continue like
this, the Stewarts will be in dire straits.”
“Considering your role as the Project Director at Southlake Corporation, could you arrange
some projects for the Stewart family?” Marilyn asked while extending her invitation to
Willow as they prepared to dine.
