“Dream on!” Finn Taylor answered decisively.

Of course, Levi Taylor had expected this response. “Interesting. You’re such a small fly, yet you want to go against us? Chicago’s Taylor family might be impressive, but have you ever heard of the Taylor family from South-East Asia?”

‘The Taylor family from South-East Asia?’ Finn Taylor suddenly thought of it.

They were one of the top families of the whole region. The Taylor family of South-East Asia controlled the entire region and had a widespread influence across the wall.

‘Is this the family that Eugene Taylor established? If that’s the case, they’re really formidable opponents.’ 

“It seems like you recognize our family. You better hand the position of Master Peregrine over to us then. Actually, we don’t have any ill intentions. We’re from the same family. If not for the family feud at that time, we wouldn’t have left Chicago. Now that we’re back, we’re going to lead the family back to glory again. Isn’t that good?”

Levi Taylor made it sound like a good plan, but it sounded like nonsense to Finn Taylor.

“There’s only one Taylor family—my grandpa’s. I don’t care what happened before that.” The only one he cared about in the family was Brian Taylor. The feuds between the previous generations had nothing to do with him.

“It seems like you’re really not afraid of dying. We came prepared not to let you leave alive today. You better think about it—who will protect your wife if something happens to you?”

‘Using Yvette to threaten me?’ Finn Taylor chuckled. ‘Something will really happen to Yvette if I give in to them. Only if I deal with them will they not dare to touch Yvette. Besides, what they’re really after is the position of Master Peregrine. Do they really think they can make the rest of Peregrine Hall listen to them? They must be kidding. I’m sure they won’t dare to kill me.’

“Are you really going to keep me here?”

“So what if we do? Uncle Sam.”

The robed man named Uncle Sam rushed toward Finn Taylor.

Finn Taylor dodged easily. From the elder’s movements, he could clearly tell that the other was well-trained. ‘He isn’t just any ordinary person, but so what? Am I going to give in to them just because of that?’

“Where are you from?” Finn Taylor dodged while trying to get information out of the other man.

But Uncle Sam ignored him.

“My master once gave me a piece of jade. Anyone from the same sect isn’t allowed to do anything to me.” With that, Finn Taylor took out a piece of jade.

Uncle Sam stopped in his tracks and glanced at Finn Taylor with a dark gaze. “What’s your relationship to him?”

“I’ve only met the master once, but he said that my fate is intertwined with the sect. He gave me the piece of jade—saying that it would come in handy one day—so that his disciples wouldn’t go against me.”

‘So that his disciples wouldn’t go against him?’ Uncle Sam dazedly walked forward and picked up the piece of jade. Then, he fell on his knees all of a sudden.

“I’ll send you back.” A moment later, he stood up.

His words shocked the other three in the room. “What do you mean, Uncle Sam?”

Levi Taylor was the first to speak up, but Uncle Sam ignored him too. In fact, he had already opened the door for Finn Taylor.

Levi Taylor was about to chase after the pair when Melanie Taylor stopped him. “Let him leave. It’s easy to kill him, so we’ll let him off this time.”

Yet, Levi Taylor was indignant to let his cousin leave just like that.

Uncle Sam was naturally only one of his many assassins, but they had never planned on letting Finn Taylor leave today. Who would’ve thought that such a dramatic scene would occur? Their plans had failed this time with Uncle Sam protecting him.

He was just lucky this time.

Uncle Sam merely sent Finn Taylor to the lobby before leaving. He had no plans of stepping out of the hotel.

From her room, Willow Stone saw the scene panning out.

She was curious why he had come to the hotel. She had already sent someone to investigate it, and she believed that she would get her answer soon.

The door opened just then, and someone walked in—his name was Winter.

“What did you find?”

“Finn Taylor went to the eleventh floor. Someone booked out the entire floor; his name is Levi Taylor.”

“Levi Taylor? Have you found out about his background?”

“Yes, he’s the young master of South-East Asia’s Taylor family. His father is the family head—Jefferey Taylor.”

“South-East Asia’s Taylor family? Finn Taylor? Do you mean that Finn Taylor is from that family?” Willow Stone was slightly confused. ‘I’ve been trying to figure out the other’s true identity, but it was to no avail. But this time, things are looking up.’

“Continue to look into this.”

Winter nodded.

As Willow Stone gazed at Finn Taylor walking away from the hotel, she let out a meaningful smile. ‘You want to escape from my grasp? You’re still wet behind the ears. You’ll never imagine the pain I went through. There’s no way I’ll let anything I want to slip out of my grasp.’

…

When Finn Taylor returned home, Clarine Landon was there too.

“Are you feeling alright?”

“Yes.”

“What did the two of them do to you?”

“The two of them?”

Finn Taylor was trying to get leads to the Taylor siblings from Clarine Landon, but it seemed like she hadn’t even met them.

“Nothing much.” Finn Taylor had underestimated them. ‘With their statuses, it’s obvious that they wouldn’t have done it personally. How could they meet Clarine Landon?’

“What’s going on, Finn? Was it Willow?” Yvette Larson still held out one last shred of hope for her friend. As such, she posed that question in a hurry.

Finn Taylor shook his head. “It wasn’t her.”

But he also added, “However, Willow Stone’s background is very mysterious, and even I can’t get anything on her. You two better be careful around her.”

The two best friends felt helpless.

The three of them had been the best of friends, yet they were like strangers now. It was as though they didn’t even know her.

“Oh right, you guys better just stay at home for now. It might be dangerous out there..” Finn Taylor couldn’t put his mind at rest since Melanie Taylor and Levi Taylor were still out there.
