The helicopter landed on the icy surface of the river, which was as hard as iron, and Yashita did not wait for the helicopter to stop fully before she pushed the door open and jumped out. After thanking the pilot and saying goodbye, she quickly headed toward the Harker mansion, which was about one and a half kilometers away.
At this time, many of the members of the Harker family had already gotten up early.
The Harker family's living habits had always been somewhat different as compared to that of modern society. On the contrary, their lifestyle had many similarities with the ancients.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFor example, the Harker family rarely relied on modern technology in their lifestyle. Aside from the telephone, which was an essential item, most of the Harker family members rarely relied on cell phones, computers, and the internet.
The generation of people from the age of eighteen to fifty years old was the mainstay of the Harker family. Regardless of their gender, as long as they were members of the Harker family, they would all be busy practicing martial arts. As soon as the rooster crowed, everyone would usually be up within an hour to start practicing martial arts.
If there were no special circumstances, they would usually sleep for about six hours, and they would spend most of their remaining tpracticing martial arts.
The other older people who had stopped practicing as well as those women who had married into the family would also get up early every day to do shousework and keep the whole family in order.
But today, although the members of the Harker family also woke up very early, there was no scene of the young and strong people practicing martial arts. Everyone was busy packing up and organizing the house chores. After all, this time, the entire family would be migrating, and even the elderly in the family would have to leave together with them. So, the Harker mansion would be in a semi-deserted state for a long tin the future. Therefore, they would have to make sure that everything was settled before they left. 3 The head of the Harker family, Holden, was all dressed up neatly early in the morning. He was wearing a very formal suit, and his silver hair was combed toward the back of his head. He had also deliberately groomed his gray beard. Although he was already more than eighty years old, he looked as elegant as he was back then. 3 Holden strolled back and forth through the front courtyard and backyard in the compound of the Harker mansion alone, and he could not help but feel a little reluctance in his heart as he looked at the century- old mansion.
He was not a greedy man. The only temptation for him from the two billion dollars that the Schulz family had promised them was the fact that he would be able to lead the Harker family to an even greater height.
However, he also knew very well in his heart that he was already an old man. Even if he had the foundation from practicing martial arts all his life, he would still have to depend on God's favor and blessing to be able to live to a hundred years old.
Therefore, at the very least, he would have at most twenty more years.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFor Holden, money had already long been nothing more than mere worldly possessions. Moreover, he did not have any interest in any rich or materialistic life. If he could just put the future of the Harker family aside, Holden would very much rather live in Moncolne so that he could just retire with peace of mind.
He was already more than eighty years old, but he still had to lead and bring his family to the south to make a living. This was not exactly a very comforting thing for him to do either.
Still, there were many things that he had to do out of his own free will. So, this time, he was simply living out the rest of his remaining life to the fullest for the Harker family. Deep in his heart, he was even prepared to die without ever returning to this place. 3 This was not because Holden was pretending to be calm or because he was pessimistic, but it was because he had already thought everything through. 3 Why had Lord Schulz suddenly sent Arrington here to ask him for a meeting at this time? Also, why would he offer them such good terms for their collaboration? The only possibility was that the Schulz family had now encountered a strong enemy, and they needed the Harker family urgently to enhance the strength of the Schulz family in terms of their forces.
So, although the two billion dollars was a large sum of money, it would certainly not be easy to earn this money. Perhaps, there might even be countless hardships awaiting the Harker family in the future.
At this time, he did not know whether it was right or wrong for him to lead the Harker family to the south. 1
Just as he was feeling very melancholic, he suddenly heardm familiar footsteps sounding from the E near distance.
He already guessed that this person was most probably his daughter laughter Yashita, before he turned around. However, before turning around, he could not help but frown.
He thought to himself, 'Although Yashita's strength is pretty good, she does not have ave such good control of her body and aura! Based on this feeling, this person's strength should be at least one level higher compared to Yashital' 'This person... who could it be?' 11 X
