Unlike the three Wu siblings, tonight, the Shipley family was facing an unprecedented bloodbath.
Xu Yunyun and Su Fei were in their room, excitedly waiting for the news from the mercenary website.
News did not come. Instead, the police came to their house and surrounded them.
Su Fei’s aunt, Fang Lanxin, was married to the second son of Marquis Shipley, Kerlow Shipley.
According to Luntanese custom, after a man got married, if he was not the heir to a title of nobility, he should separate from his family and live his own life. However, even though Kerlow was never that talented, he had always been a lackey to his father and older brother.
That was because he had realized from a very young age that he was not the studious type. He knew that he did not have the merit to inherit the Shipley family in the future. He had recognized this reality very early on and made up his mind to start being a parasite as soon as he could.
The royal nobles of Luntan were similar to the royal nobles of Camino. Not only were there conflicts in the palace, but there were also conflicts between powerful families.
The sons of the Shipley family in Luntan were equivalent to princes, so it could be said that they were top-class nobles. Therefore, every time a family like them chose an heir, brothers would turn against each other in the fight.
There were not many sons like Kerlow, who could recognize their own lack of talent, dedicate themselves to being lowly parasites, and give up their chance at a grand royal title.
Both Kerlow’s father and brother treated him very well.
Even though Kerlow was not businessman material, they still set up a company for him. After that company went bankrupt, they set another one up. Then, they made him chairman and hired a professional manager to manage it.
Even so, the income and expenses of the company were basically the same.They were barely breaking even.
However, this did not quell Marquis Adrian’s love for Kerlow, his youngest son.
He would do anything to make him happy.
Adolf was also indebted to his younger brother. Whenever his father gave Kerlow money, he would not say anything. After all, he had his own noble title and his own listed company, which was developing quite well. He paid a lot of taxes… The company was getting more and more successful. He would soon become an earl. When his father passed away, he would be able to succeed the throne smoothly.
Adolf was very kind to his brother, who did not cause him trouble and never tried to hurt him.
The Shipley family lived in a castle-like manor. There were bodyguards on duty 24 hours a day there.
Seeing so many police cars driving over, the bodyguards all perked up.
After all, the Shipley family was a marquisdom. Even if police came, it would be to ask for the family’s help in solving a case. Therefore, upon seeing so many police officers, the bodyguards thought that they were coming to help the Marquis or Viscount with a case.
The head bodyguard recognized the police officer handling the case. He walked forward and nodded slightly. “Officer Abel, why are you here at the marquisdom in person today? Did our Marquis call for you?”
Officer Abel glanced at the person in front of him. He knew him too. After all, any police officer worth his salt was familiar with the bodyguards of the royal family and nobles.
