Chapter 360

Stefan was shocked to discover that the topographical structure and direction of the route on the map

were identical to the entrance of the Hunt family's ancestral grave on Mount Lodge in North City.

The Hunt family spanned a long history that dated as far back as the Thame Dynasty. In fact, there

were generals and ministers in the family throughout the generations, and they all held prominent

positions. The family had always been active in North City, and their ancestors were also buried on

Mount Lodge, which had the best Fengshui and was inaccessible to outsiders.

Only during his great-grandfather's generation did his family move south to create their business

empire in Beach City, which was located on the other side of the country.

Apart from periods when important festivities were held, the Hunt family rarely returned to North City.

"This is odd. Why would the map to the Hunt family's ancestral grave be sewn on Renee's sheet?"

Stefan asked out loud.

Could there be a connection between the Hunt family and the Everheart family from the time of their

ancestors?

Stefan would have to ask his grandfather when the opportunity presented itself.

With this in mind, Stefan carefully stored the sheet and the silk object in a small box.

Suddenly, a thought occurred to him. He retrieved Renee's notebook and called Xavier on the phone.

At that moment, Xavier sat on a long bench outside the emergency unit while waiting for Shirley to be

treated.

He thought he had probably gone mad.

Clearly, he wasn't the nosy type of person, and he was used to doing everything for himself. This time,

he was actually "kind" enough to tend to someone else's "trouble." He even skipped dinner because of

this "trouble."

"Stefan, it's late. What's up?" Although Xavier picked up Stefan's call, he was still focused on the

blinking red light above the emergency unit.

That's because the end of the blinking indicated that the treatment was complete.

Although he knew next to nothing about Shirley, he couldn't help but feel worried about her. He hoped

she wouldn't die at such a young age.

"I showed you the notebook in the car not long ago. You promised to do something for me. Do you still

remember that?" Stefan asked patiently.

"Ahem, can I say otherwise?" Xavier knew Stefan was up to no good.

In other words, Stefan dug a hole and pointed at it while asking him, "Didn't you say you wanted to

jump into a hole? Here, I already dug it for you. Hurry up and jump in."

"Don't be nervous. This is a profitable deal. I won't cheat you," Stefan said.

"Thankyou, Stefan, but I don't need the money. You should do it yourself if it's profitable!" Xavier

replied.

'Don't be silly.' Xavier, Stefan, and Christopher had been joined at the hips since they were kids. Xavier

knew exactly the kind of people they were.

As soon as Stefan called, Xavier knew something fishy was going to happen. The most sensible thing

was to turn it down!

"You don't need the money, do you?" Stefan asked half-jokingly. " Looks like the Stuart family's

business has been doing very well. It's time for them to go through a little hardship..."

"Hang on, Stefan. Stop beating around the bush. Just tell me what you need help with." Xavier was

afraid of getting into trouble again. He surrendered immediately.

If Xavier was a predator that everyone avoided, then Stefan was the apex predator that he avoided.

It was a losing war whether Xavier fought back or not. He might as well just surrender from the get-go!

"What did you think about the content of the ?" Stefan asked in a serious manner.

"It's great. I think it's the best I've ever read!" Xavier slapped his own thigh. He instantly felt

inspired. Perhaps, he genuinely felt this way. He might've also done this because he wanted to insult

Stefan. "The male lead couldn't have been described better. He's a literal piece of trash, a monster, and

the ultimate representative of a scumbag!"

Stefan frowned intensely.

He suspected that Xavier might have been indirectly insulting him, but he didn't have any proof.

That was because he, too, agreed the male lead was dumb and an absolute scumbag!
