541: Chapter 540: The Heartache of Old Ye 541: Chapter 540: The Heartache of Old Ye Early next morning, Yusuf Zuck and Grey Petty, carrying a travel bag, boarded a flight headed to Harbor Island.
Last night, he had spent the night at Miles O’Brien’s place.
Of course, during that night, the two tried to conceive a child, but whether they were successful or not, Yusuf didn’t know.
Miles had prepared a lot, but having a child isn’t sothing that happens just because you want it to.
Around noon, Yusuf and Grey Petty disembarked the plane, and to their surprise, Sara Zuck and Dream Morrow had co together to pick them up.
“Why aren’t you filming?” The siblings embraced when they t, exchanged a fist bump with Dream Morrow, and then they all got into the van.
“I managed to finish my scenes this morning, so I ca along with Dream to pick you up.
You were coming after all.
How could we not greet you personally?
We wouldn’t dare put on celebrity airs with you!” Sara laughed cheerily.
“Right, that’s how it should be.
Don’t put on airs with anyone.
We are just ordinary people; we mustn’t forget where we co from,” Yusuf said, nodding.
“Got it,” Sara replied with a wry smile.
Every ti Yusuf saw her, he would nag more than their father ever did.
The group didn’t enter the downtown area but instead went straight to the villa where Sara lived— a gift from the Petty Family, by the sea, spacious, and sufficiently luxurious.
After asking about so matters concerning the Petty Family and Sara’s recent work, Yusuf took Dream Morrow upstairs.
…
At the sa ti, Alvin Petty, the Family Head of the Petty Family, had also received news of Yusuf’s arrival in Harbor Island.
They had people secretly protecting Sara, so whenever Sara t soone or did sothing, they would report back to Alvin.
Upon receiving the intel about Yusuf’s arrival, Alvin imdiately went ho to consult with his father.
In just half a year, the Family Head had aged significantly and now sat in a wheelchair, perhaps due to the death of his son—and it seed as though his sharpness had faded.
“Call Sara.
We can’t wait for them to co to us.
Let’s reach out proactively,” the Family Head sighed.
The current Yusuf was not the sa as he had been before; the Family Head was aware of the Tianyi Investnt event in Beijing and the acquisition of the Wilcox Family.
Yusuf was now in full bloom.
“I heard he brought a master with him.
It must be Truth-Insight!” Alvin said with an uneasy expression.
“Hehe, he fears for his sister’s safety, but it’s a good thing.
This way, if anything happens to his sister, he won’t take his anger out on our Petty Family.
However, where did he find Truth-Insight?
To use Truth-Insight as a bodyguard…
that’s quite a statent!” the Family Head sighed.
“Dad, you’re not well…
let go on your behalf,” Alvin said, distressed upon seeing his father’s weary face.
Having offended Yusuf once, the Petty Family was now very cautious, fearing they might provoke Yusuf again.
“It’s fine, I won’t die.
Prepare the car,” the Family Head waved dismissively.
While Alvin went to ready the car, he also called Sara to give a heads up, as they couldn’t simply go there unannounced.
Upon hearing that Alvin and the Family Head were coming, Sara had no choice but to agree.
She was now being heavily promoted by the Petty Family, which had treated her very well over the past half a year, making her feel sowhat guilty.
The Zuck siblings did not like to owe favors to others, and their relationship with the Petty Family was sowhat entangled.
Soon, in less than an hour, the Family Head and Alvin had arrived at the villa.
However, Yusuf and Dream Morrow had not yet co out of the room.
“Grandfather Petty, why have you co in person…” Sara helped the Family Head to the sofa, while Ross’s mother imdiately served tea.
Alvin was very polite as well, taking the tea from Ross’s mother and thanking her.
Grey Petty was also in the living room at the ti.
He didn’t know the Petty Family and was also adapting to the new environnt, as he would be living in this large mansion from now on.
“This friend is…” Once everyone was seated, the Family Head turned his attention to Grey Petty and gestured for Sara to introduce him.
“He’s my brother’s friend, also surnad Petty, Grey Petty.
Grey, this is Grandfather Petty, and this is Uncle Alvin.
You can just call him Uncle along with ,” Sara introduced them.
“Hello, Grandfather Petty, Uncle,” Grey Petty greeted with a smile and a nod.
“Oh no, not at all,” the Family Head and Alvin Petty were shocked.
So the Truth-Insight master that Yusuf had brought with him was also acquainted with Sara?
And they seed very familiar with each other?
Grey Petty laughed without saying a word.
The old man of the Petty family cupped his fist and said, “If I’m not mistaken, young brother, you have achieved Truth-Insight, haven’t you?”
“Yeah, sort of,” Grey Petty shrugged.
“What’s Truth-Insight?
Brother Grey, what does that an?” Sara Zuck asked, puzzled.
“It’s nothing much, just a realm in martial arts training.
You wouldn’t understand if I told you, but in a bit, Dream Morrow will be the sa as ,” Grey said, pointing upstairs.
“Hahaha…” Just as Grey Petty’s voice fell, a burst of laughter suddenly ca from upstairs; it was that Dream Morrow guy.
“This is freaking aweso…” Dream Morrow shouted loudly.
The old man and Alvin Petty just looked at each other in shock.
At that ti, Yusuf Zuck ca downstairs, and it seed that Dream Morrow had jumped out from an upstairs window.
“Family Head, second brother, you’re here.
My apologies, my apologies; I was only talking to Dream Morrow just now…” Yusuf Zuck said apologetically, fist-cupping to the Family Head and Alvin Petty as he ca downstairs, looking the sa as always, as if nothing had ever happened between him and the Petty Family.
“Yusuf Zuck, long ti no see.” Alvin Petty stood up proactively to shake Yusuf’s hand.
The family head of the Pettyps also tried to stand, but he couldn’t get up after several attempts.
“Family Head, please stay seated.
What’s wrong with your body?” Yusuf Zuck imdiately supported the old man and frowned as he probed his body with telekinesis.
“Hehe, it’s just what happens when you get older.
Now, I can’t even properly greet you,” the old man said, chuckling with embarrassnt.
“Family Head, your health seems to have deteriorated quite a bit compared to six months ago.” After checking, Yusuf Zuck found that although the old man didn’t have any serious illnesses, his physical fitness had declined significantly since half a year ago, aging quickly.
He guessed so of it, another son had died, heartache, heartache.
His heart was in pain, his spirit exhausted, and with his age, his body obviously wouldn’t be doing well.
“There’s no serious illness.
I get checked every month.” The old man grasped Yusuf’s hand, opened his mouth, and said, “Yusuf…
seeing you today and you’re still so polite, my heart is at ease!”
“Please don’t say that, Family Head.” Yusuf Zuck said, a look of guilt on his face: “Let’s not bring up past matters like we agreed.
With your condition, why don’t you stay at my place tonight?
It’s settled then.
We, father and son, should have a good chat!”
“Haha, sure, then I’ll just stay here and not leave!” the old man laughed heartily.
“Right, what was Dream Morrow laughing about upstairs just now?” Alvin Petty suddenly asked at that mont.
“He advanced in rank and was overjoyed,” Yusuf Zuck smiled.
“I gave him an Elixir Pill that induces Truth-Insight.
He took it and achieved Truth-Insight, so he’s ssing around outside now!”
“What?” Alvin Petty and the old family head were once again greatly surprised.
Dream Morrow also achieved Truth-Insight?
“Grey Petty, co out and have a spar with !” Dream Morrow then stood outside and shouted loudly.
“I’ll punch you till you’re picking up your teeth!” Grey Petty ‘swooshed’ out in a flash.
“What’s going on, what’s going on?
Yusuf Zuck is here, and you didn’t call , huh?
Mr.
Morrow, what are you playing at?
Co here, let’s have a spar!” Voices of yelling ca from outside the courtyard – it was Mia’s voice; the girl had arrived.
How could Yusuf Zuck’s arrival in the city be kept from her?

PS: Exciting tis ahead.
