Roderick. Nares hid the complicated emotions in his heart and stepped into the real home that he had left for two years.

Today is the birthday of Roderick's grandfather, the founder of Nares. At the same time, it is also the day when Roderick announces his return to all family members.

Roderick, who was wearing a well-fitting and neat dress prepared by Uncle Ethan next to him, looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar hall of the mansion in front of him.

I haven't been back for two years. Nothing seems to have changed here, but it seems to be different again.

"Roderick? Are you back?"

Roderick's appearance immediately attracted the attention of other family members.

The elders had different reactions, but at least on the surface they smiled and said hello to the junior whom they had not seen for a long time, without any rude behavior.

Today is always the birthday of the head of the Nares family, and no one will do anything unnecessary here without appreciation.

If it really happened, I'm afraid they would be kicked out immediately by the elders of Nares.

Roderick is a little uncomfortable with the current atmosphere. He has been away from the family for too long, and other people are too polite to him, which makes him feel unreal.

Fortunately, Uncle Ethan who was with him was very considerate and did not force him to communicate with everyone. He could sit alone in the corner and watch the family members laugh and laugh.

The Nares family is a big family. Even if today's birthday party is only attended by family members, there will be nearly fifty people in attendance.

Roderick looked down at the glass of red wine in his hand, recalling the deeds of his respected grandfather.

Trinidad. Nares, the head and founder of the Nares family, is the godfather of the gang known to almost everyone in Kedax City.

Many well-known gangs have appeared in the underground world of Kedax City, and many gangs have collapsed. However, the only one that has been able to remain standing for more than half a century is the Nares Gang.

The Nares Gang has a better reputation in the city than the other two major gangs, mainly because during the civil strife five years ago, the elderly Trinidad. Nares once led his own gang to resist the rebel siege.

In addition, the Nares Gang also has a bottom line in their actions. They are more moral and sometimes help the people at the bottom, so they have won the recognition of some people at the bottom.

At least, that was the case two years ago.

"What happened to the family during the two years I left?"

Roderick, who was irritated inside, took a sip of the red wine in his hand.

"Uncle Ethan doesn't seem to know anything, but I can't ask him directly. Making insinuations will not have a good effect... So, who is it?"

Roderick looked at the families in the hall.

The family has a large number of people, and he is not familiar with everyone. Today's birthday party will definitely be attended by all family members, and there should be more than sixty people by then.

Trinidad. Nares never married, but he had many women and many children. This may be the only shortcoming of this gang godfather.

Roderick lost his parents when he was young, and he rarely had the opportunity to contact these uncles and uncles before, let alone the number of blood-related family members.

After Roderick lost his parents when he was a child, his grandfather took him to live in this house. However, this does not mean that he has more opportunities to contact other elders. On the contrary, because there are no parents behind him, there is less contact. .

What his parents left to Roderick was a few assets. After Roderick grew up, at the suggestion of his uncle Ethan, who he was relatively familiar with, he made an investment and established a restaurant in the business district. upscale bar.

After Roderick left the family, his source of income was the high-end bar with a relatively good business, which also saved him from the hardship of working outside.

"Where is your grandfather? Why haven't you come yet?"

An hour has passed since Roderick arrived. All the members of the Nares family have gathered together, but today's protagonist has not yet appeared.

Some younger children couldn't help but ask their parents, only to receive stern looks and low scoldings from their parents.

"Wait obediently!"

"yes……"

At this time, Roderick, who had had a few glasses of wine, also became confused.

My grandfather is a very punctual person and should normally show up half an hour ago.

"What accident happened? No, it's impossible. This is our family's headquarters..."

Just when Roderick was about to stand up and go find Uncle Ethan who was communicating with other brothers and sisters on the other side, today's protagonist finally arrived too late.

"Father!"

"Grandpa!"

"grandfather!"

Under the attention of more than sixty family members, from the depths of the mansion, an old man with gray hair walked out with vigorous steps.

Trinidad, who is in her seventies. Nares still looked full of energy, and his lowered phoenix eyes made him look a little gloomy, with an aura of calmness and self-power.

Roderick quickly stood up and went to greet his grandfather.

We haven’t seen each other for two years, but my grandfather still looks as energetic as ever. He is still the same as Roderick remembered, wearing a meticulous black dress, with a white silk scarf hanging from the pocket on the left chest, and wearing a A ring that represents the family.

Tall Trinidad. Nares appeared on the second floor of the mansion, followed by two subjects unknown to Roderick.

One is a young man with a feminine face, probably in his twenties, and the other is a middle-aged man wearing a loose black robe and holding a pure black book with a strange feeling.

Trinidad. Nares walked down the second floor, then stopped at the top of the stairs, looking down at the family members below.

"Your Majesty Bishop, it seems like no one succeeded?"

A powerful voice came out of the old man's mouth, but he was not talking to any family member, and his tone was unusually cold.

"Yes, no one has succeeded. The potion has been taken for more than an hour. If it works, the effect should have appeared."

The middle-aged man holding a book in his hand responded with a smile.

Seeing this strange scene, Rodrick couldn't help but frowned.

His grandfather's attitude was completely different from what he remembered.

Not only Roderick discovered the problem, but other family cadres and senior officials who were familiar with the head of the family also discovered something was wrong.

However, when they took further action, Trinidad took the lead and spoke again.

"Listen carefully, he is my successor."

Trinidad asked the feminine young man next to her to step forward.

"He is my child, Alexis Nares, the future master of the Nares family!"
