    Even though Alba promised him that no one would leak what happened that day, David did not believe


    him.


    He had to be prepared.

    If he couldpletely trust Alba, how could Cornelius know about her whereabouts?


    A lot of these major forces would infiltrate each other.


    No one could guarantee that there were no spies around Alba.


    Even if they were not from the Lightfoot family, they might have been from other forces.


    If this got leaked and the Lightfoot family learned that David killed Cornelius, it would be bad. for David


    if he did not have time to increase his strength.


    David did not believe that the Fellowes family would help him.


    From what ba said, the Fellowes family was in hot waters themselves. So, how would they dare to


    be enemies with a family like the Lightfoot family for the sake of an outsider?


    Furthermore, David did not like to depend on others.


    So, he had to be prepared.


    His first step was to get enoughvish points during the auction. Then, he would raise his strength to


    partial Saint Realm.


    That way, he would have the capital to continue living in Star Kingdom.


    “You’re too kind, Master David. You are Miss Alba’s guest, so naturally, you’re also the family’s guest.


    Please forgive me if there’s anything I don’t do well enough,” Mick answered courteously.


    “You should chat. I’ll go see what Grandpa Val needs.”


    “Miss Alba, go ahead.”


    “Miss Alba, bye.”


    Alba turned around to leave.


    After Alba left, Mick said, “Master David, where do you want to go next? I’ll show you the way.”


    “Old Sir, I’m a little tired so I won’t go anywhere else. Please take me to rest,” David said.


    He was initially already not interested.


    Alba insisted on taking him around the headquarters.


    Now that Alba was not here, he had no reason to stay here anymore.


    “Do you not want to look around anymore, Master David? There are a lot of ces in the headquarters


    that are worth visiting.”


    “Thank you, Old Sir. I don’t really want to. Next time,” David rejected indirectly.


    “Come with me then. I’ll take you to your room.”


    Mick did not continue urging David and he walked ahead of David.


    David followed.


    However, Mick’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed in front of David.


    David was smiling and chatting happily when he was with Miss Alba. He was having a lot of fun.


    After Miss Alba left, he did not want to continue.


    Who would believe him if he said there was nothing between them?


    Mick knew Miss Alba’s charm.


    Back then, she did not wear a veil and was a famous talented woman in Star Kingdom.


    Since getting engaged to the eldest son of the Palmore family, the Palmore family requested for her to


    wear one.


    One could tell how attractive she was.


    Thus, it was normal for a youngster like David to be attracted to Miss Alba.


    However, Mick did not understand why Miss Alba was so close to David even when she knew she was


    engaged.


    ‘Is she not worried about being found out?


    ‘Won’t she suffer once she married into the Palmore family?


    “No!


    ‘I have to tell the seniors of the family.


    ‘If this develops, not only Miss Alba will suffer, the entire family will also be implicated.’
