Chapter 941: I Do Look Forward to It
Stanford staggered in front, almost losing his bnce.
Drug him?
Set up a honey-trap?
The first guess was too impossible, and the second was too low. Stanford wouldn’t use either at all.
He looked at Phoebe helplessly. “Do you hope me to set the honey-trap?”
Phoebe thought for a while and then nodded for several times.
She answered, “Of course. I do look forward to it.”
Stanford’s face darkened.
Last night, she said she loved him so intensely, but today, she wished him to set up a honey-trap for
another man. Stanford wondered why she was so open-minded.
It was said the possessiveness between two loved people was pretty intense. Probably, Phoebe
didn’t love him for real.
He was disappointed.
In anger, Stanford pressed his thin lips and turned away.
Phoebe watched his expression change from being delighted to impassive. She shuddered.
However, she wasn’t afraid of him. Or, to be exact, she had been used to his temper.
Phoebe followed him and took the initiative to hold his hand.
She said expectantly, “I do look forward to seeing your honey-trap on me.”
Stanford stiffened. He felt as if his heart was swept by a feather. It tickled and tingled. He wanted
more.
Collin looked back, only to find that Stanford’s ears reddened because of Phoebe’s words. He pitied
Stanford instantly.
Stanford was inexperienced in love, but Phoebe was experienced in flirting. Collin could imagine
how obedient Stanford would be to Phoebe in the future.
He couldn’t turn the table at all.

The Turner’s Mansion.
There were several independent small houses next to the big castle.
Ernest was staying in the giant castle. Now, he directly moved into a house with Florence.
Threeyers of well-trained bodyguards were circling around the building. No one could get in.
Even if Theodore came over to visit, he must wait for the approval.
It meant Ernest had established a fortress in the Turner family.
Florence was staying in there.
Besides protecting her, when Ernest was about to discuss important things with his subordinates,
he would do it here so that others wouldn’t eavesdrop.
What he did had challenged Theodore’s authority.
Theodore was angry, but he couldn’t do anything under the current circumstance.
He was actually in a dilemma with both internal and external threats.
Externally, the Fraser family had received the news and fallen out with the Turner family directly. In
two or three days, the Turner family suffered from a substantial economic loss, let alone the two
families’petition on business and power.
Internally, Ernest was his grandson, the future master of the family, but he supported the Fraser
family. He even moved into an independent house to get rid of Theodore’s control.
He was the tumor inside the Turner family, in Theodore’s opinion, but he couldn’t get rid of Ernest at
all.
However, Theodore was quite capable as well. Although he was in aplicated situation, he still
insisted on ruining the Fraser family no matter what happened.
Meanwhile, he was nning secretly on how to suppress Ernest.
It was chaotic in the Turner family.

The living room of the house.
The Second Elder Finley said worriedly, “Master sent the third elder to spread rumors in the family,
saying you’ve betrayed the Turner family because you killed the fourth elder and injured the fifth
elder. If this goes on, they will make you a mere figurehead in the family. In that case, you’ll be in a
more difficult situation.”
Ernest had the force from Finley. In addition to his prestige because of his blood. Ernest had a
strong foothold in the Turner family.
That was why Theodore didn’t dare to do anything to Ernest, although he was angry.
However, if Ernest has lost the trust of all people in the Turner family, Theodore would have more
chance to win against Ernest even though Finley supported thetter.
It would be a fierce battle within the Turner family at that time. For Ernest, he would be at a
disadvantage.
Kevin also looked solemn.
He added, “Young Master, we can’t let them keep on doing that. We must figure out a way to avoid
the trap from Master.
“We have an individual Family Rule Court in the family. Usually, it won’t participate in any fight.
However, if someone was ensured to have betrayed the family, Family Rule Court will end that
person’s life. I’m worried that Theodore will use the Court to go against you.”
“How dare he to use the Family Rule Court!”
Upon hearing it, Finley hopped up from the sofa in anger, and fear.
Family Rule Court was an individual force that belonged to the Turner family.
It had been decades since someone called out Family Rule Court.
However, it was said all people in the Court were skilled Kong Fu fighters, more capable than the
top mercenary regiment. Once they took action, no one could fight against them.
If Theodore indeed seek help from the Court, Ernest would probably die in one night silently,
although he had such strong protection now.
They could secretly kill someone, which feared the whole Turner family.
“We can’t allow him to do that. Otherwise, no one can guarantee Young Master’s safety.”
Kevin frowned worriedly. “However, the current situation is way too difficult. Master has the highest
authority in the Turner family. Now, he incited the family members deliberately. I’m afraid the public
opinion will support him and be against Young Master.”
Finley was in charge of force but not so smart.
Usually, he could step out and resolve the problem violently. However, he was angry but couldn’t do
anything helpful.
Those people against him were his family members. He couldn’t send someone to fight against
them without any grounded reason.
Even he had a lot of subordinates and soldiers, they were no match for the highly-skilled "killing
machines" from Family Rule Court.
He thought for a while but couldn’t figure out any workable n.
Finley frowned. As if he had made up his mind on something, he said solemnly to Ernest, “Young
Master, why don’t you leave before nned? You should leave the Turner Mansion and go to the
Fraser family. We’re against each other now, but the Fraser family is powerful. As long as they still
exist, you will be safe.”
However, in that case, Ernest would ultimately lose his power in the Turner family, which would
make it more challenging.
Compared with the current situation, that seemed to be the only chance to survive.
Ernest sat on the sofa with his legs crossed elegantly. He looked cold and calm, not nervous or
fearful at all.
He smiled and said casually, “I won’t go.”
Finley rubbed his own hands anxiously.
“But, Young Master, you’ll be in danger if you don’t leave. I know you need help from the Fraser
family to pass this crisis, but your lifees first.”
