“Regardless, someone asked her about Phoebe during her recent class reunion, which led her to tell me about the

news earlier today,” explained Professor Boyle.

“Peaceton you say… That aside, how sure are we that Phoebe hasn’t had a divorce with him?” asked Gerald with a

slight frown.

“While that’s possible, keep in mind that when Phoebe was still studying, she was already pregnant with his child. In

fact, they got married right after the child was born. With that in mind, even if they got divorced, Ferb wouldn’t

have been irresponsible enough not to know where his child was, is what I’m saying,” replied Professor Boyle.

“A fair assumption. Well, regardless of whether it’s right or wrong, this is still an important clue. Let’s head to

Peaceton and find Marcel first! ” declared Aiden.

“Indeed, though before we leave, allow me to make some new formations for spring manor first. They’ll prevent

people from causing trouble!” replied Gerald who wanted to ensure that his allies and assets would be safe in his

absence. That way, he could leave without worry.

It took him a few days, but with the help of Lyndon and Saint Darkwind, Gerald was able to complete the

formations, two guarding formations and one cultivating formation, rather quickly. With that done, everything was

all set.

Rather than having Aiden and Leo tag along, Gerald ultimately decided to have only Saint Darkwind, Lyndon, and

the professor accompany him to Peaceton.

It took another three days before the four finally arrived at Peaceton. Upon arrival, their first action was to head to

a café to have some tea while resting.

After a while, Professor Boyle shook his head before saying in a helpless tone, “My student sent more information

about Ferb, so I may as well lay it all out now. Aside from the fact that he’s changed his name to Marcel, he’s

currently the forty two year old chairman of the Rising Sun Group. He only has one son, though the boy is with

Phoebe. Sadly enough, our speculations were correct. He divorced ten years ago, and that was when he changed

his name. Regardless, his life is now rather messy. After all, aside from becoming rather temperamental after the

divorce, Marcel currently has at least seven girlfriends whom he keeps in a large mansion! He’s practically living the

life of an ancient emperor!”

The professor, for one, remembered Ferb well. Though the boy was poor, he was always diligent and modest. He

was also extremely loyal to Phoebe at the time. The fact that the boy had turned out this way after twenty years

made Professor Boyle feel rather sad.

Either way, upon hearing that, Lyndon was prompted to ask, “So we came here for nothing?”

“I wouldn’t say that. After all, if anyone knows where Phoebe and his son are, it’s him!” replied the professor.

“That’s right. Since there was pretty much no one left in Phoebe’ s hometown while she was studying, finding

Marcel is our best bet. To clarify, she had come alone to pursue her studies.”

All of a sudden, someone could be heard yelling, “S-stop…! Stop! Please!”

It was evident that someone was causing a ruckus downstairs, and since Gerald was sitting by the staircase, he

could see everything clearly. Essentially, it appeared that two people who appeared to be siblings were getting

beaten by a young mistress’s valet. The one shouting was the boy’s sister, who was desperately trying to protect

her brother.

“Beat him to a pulp! That’s for trying to steal my things!” roared the young mistress.

From how much the sister was trying to protect her brother, Gerald could tell how close the siblings were. She

honestly reminded him of his sister. Now feeling slightly bummed, he got to his feet before heading downstairs.
