"Father!"
"Uncle, why… why are you here?"
"Grandfather!"
Upon seeing this figure, Carlos and the rest of the Stones bowed and greeted him respectfully.
The person who came was none other than the Stones' former helmsman, Maddy's grandfather, and Carlos's father, Geoffrey!
After hearing that the Stones were in trouble, Geoffrey had immediately rushed over, only to hear Carlos say that he was expelling Maddy out of the family and disowning her. He was instantly angered.
Some time ago, Carlos had taken a liking to Lucas and Jordan's potential and strength, which made him believe that Lucas was the only one who could help the Stones achieve glory. Thus, he had immediately announced on the spot that he would step down and that Maddy would be the new helmsman.
But Maddy wasn't interested in being the helmsman at all. She had refused repeatedly, so Geoffrey eventually let Carlos take over the position.
