Not Twins

Chapter 3533

Upon arriving at the Summers residence, they noticed that the doors were tightly shut. Observing the closed doors, Catina expressed her confusion, “The Summers family is considered prominent in Forlisle, so why have they gone to bed and closed their doors so early?”

Cloud also found it extremely strange. “It’s rather odd for such a prominent household to close its doors so early. It shouldn’t be the case.”

It wasn’t that late, but the doors of the Summers residence were tightly shut. This was somewhat unusual.

“Cloud, go knock on the door and see.”

Jared furrowed his brows and instructed Cloud to knock on the door. He wanted to find out why the Summers family had closed their doors so early. Did something happen?

Cloud stepped forward to knock on the door. He knocked for quite a while before someone finally opened it from the inside.

“What’s all this knocking about? Who are you people, banging on the door of the Summers residence so recklessly?” a young man bellowed angrily.

Upon seeing the other party open the door with anger and speaking inappropriately, Cloud instantly became furious.

“What’s the issue with knocking on the door? Is it forbidden to knock on the doors of the Summers residence?” Cloud retorted with a cold expression.

The young man was taken aback, about to yell, but Jared quickly stepped forward with a faint smile. “My friend,” he said, “we are here to see the head of the family. My name is Jared, would you mind informing him?”

Jared believed that as long as the gatekeeper revealed his name to Tyler, Tyler would undoubtedly come to greet him personally.

To his surprise, the young man waved his hand and said, “The head of the family is in seclusion. He’s not seeing anyone…”

“Seclusion?” Jared’s face was full of surprise. He had only just left the Celestial Battlefield not long ago, so how could he be in seclusion so soon?

“Then I’ll look for Jacques. Jennifer will do as well…”

Although Tyler had retreated from the world, Jacques and Jennifer were always around.

“They have also gone into seclusion,” the young man said impatiently. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“They’ve gone into seclusion as well?” Jared’s face was filled with surprise. How could those two possibly have gone into seclusion?

At that moment, Jared’s brows were already furrowed.

“Where is Mr. Freddie? I’m fine with seeking Mr. Freddie,” he pressed on. He refused to believe that all the people he knew had gone into seclusion.

“Mr. Freddie isn’t in seclusion, but he is occupied with other matters and isn’t present at the moment. You should leave for now and come back later,” the young man said with a wave.

Then, showing signs of impatience, he was about to close the door. However, Jared held the door open, not allowing the young man to close it.

“What are you planning to do? I already told you to come back later. If you refuse to leave, don’t blame me for using force!” the young man said with a gloomy expression.

“What the heck? Who do you think you are threatening? You’re nothing but a mere watchdog! How dare you speak to Mr. Chance in such a manner? You must have a death wish or something!” Cloud shouted as he stepped forward and knocked the young man to the ground with a single kick.

Having spent some time with Jared, Cloud had indeed changed a lot. However, this young man’s attitude was truly more than Cloud could bear.

Jared didn’t blame Cloud either. The young man did indeed need to be taught a lesson.

The young man quickly stood up, glaring angrily at Cloud and Jared. “How dare you touch me? I am a member of the Summers family! You have truly crossed the line! Guards! We have intruders breaking in!”

With the young man’s loud shouts, an elderly man swiftly arrived, followed closely by a dozen cultivators.

“What is happening? Who dares to enter the Summers residence?” the elderly man asked, his face filled with anger.

The young man pointed at Jared and Cloud, saying, “It’s them, Mr. Vilhelm. I already told them that the head of the family is in seclusion, but they insisted on entering!”

Vilhelm Summers looked at Jared and Cloud with disdain in his eyes.

Cloud was a cultivator in the Body Fusion Realm, while Jared was a First Level Tribulator. Although the Summers family was knowledgeable in the study of magecraft, they were still far more advanced in terms of cultivation levels compared to Cloud and Jared.

“Who are you people? Why did you break into the Summers residence? If you cannot provide a convincing reason, do not blame me for using force!” Vilhelm said with a cold snort.
