In Brocade City, the major families banded together, planning to crush Griffith Squire, the outsider, while putting pressure on the Coldwell Family. Griffith Squire sat idly at the Coldwell mansion, waiting for them to arrive.
The first to arrive was the Coldwell Family Head, Ian Coldwell. Perhaps because the weather was warming up, Ian Coldwell was in good health, and he came to the Coldwell mansion with Zoe Kingston to sponge off a meal.
Since they hadn't announced their visit beforehand, upon arrival they awkwardly realized there was no meal prepared.
At the Coldwell mansion, there were only two cleaning servants. Ever since Aurora Coldwell started cooking, the cook had been dismissed. In case of need, there was the old housekeeper, who was an expert in Chinese cuisine. Back in Florence, it was almost always the housekeeper who cooked for Aurora Coldwell. As for the other positions of drivers and bodyguards, they were all outsourced to Griffith Squire's people.
