"You're right, but an hour has gone by, and Leon is not home yet. What could’ve happened?" Iris asked worriedly.

She knew that Louisa was right and that George and the rest of the Collins would be able to protect Leon, but

nothing was certain-the Youngs were at an advantage over them, and one could not possibly overpower so many

people. Leon and George were significantly outnumbered, and it would not be easy to escape the Youngs and the

Lowes' forces combined!

Seeing that Leon was yet to return, Iris could not help feeling more and more concerned.

"Um, perhaps Leon and Elder Collins were delayed somehow," Louisa replied rather vaguely.

"What could that be? Who could've delayed them in the middle of the night? " Iris was beginning to despair, and

then, all of a sudden, a thought popped into her head, and her voice began to shake. "Louisa, do you think

something could've happened to Leon?"

"No. Don't overthink this. Iris. I'm sure Leon is fine," Louisa's heart leaped into her throat and she quickly tried to

reassure Iris, but even she herself was losing confidence.

After all, so much time went by without any news from Leon, and if nothing bad happened, he would have been

home by now!

"No, I have to go find him!" Iris finally could not hold off her worry any longer and strode straight toward the front

door.

"No, you can't go!" All of a sudden, her father's voice rang out behind her as he sauntered out of the living room.

"Why can’t I, Father? Leon hasn't returned yet, and he must've gotten in trouble somehow, or perhaps the Youngs

and Harold have caught him! We can't possibly stand by and watch him die, can we?" Iris said in a panic.

"Iris, stay calm! Even if Leon ended up in the Youngs and Harold's hands, what will you be able to do? You're just

going to humiliate yourself!" Gilbert replied.

"That's not true! Father, we used to be a part of the Youngs, so why don't we go there together and beg Grandpa

Melvin to have mercy on him?" Iris asked in despair. She knew that Harold and the Youngs were determined to kill

Leon, and if he ended up in their hands, there was no doubt he would not make it out alive!

However, if she could convince Melvin to have mercy on him, perhaps the Youngs and Harold would choose simply

to cripple Leon but spare his life!

Therefore, she did not care whether this would succeed or not-trying was at least better than waiting at home!

"You're asking me to beg the Youngs for Leon's sake? That's impossible! I won't humiliate myself this way!" Gilbert

refused to do so. He was thinking the same as Iris—the fact that Leon was yet to return meant that things probably

took a turn for the worse, and nothing he or Iris could do would change anything.

Besides, Daisy was the one who possessed most of the Youngs' power, not Melvin. Even if he and Iris begged him

for mercy, there was nothing much he could do at all, so why would he go to so much trouble for this?

"What on earth are you saying, Father?"
