[Ellie's P.O.V.]
Kirk shook his head. "Although Uncle's ambition is self-evident, our gang still has rules. Those who are highly respected and have the right to speak are my grandfather's most loyal subordinates. They will definitely not agree to Uncle's succession. That was why Uncle did not dare to fall out with me, so he could only silence the news of my father's death with the excuse that I'm not strong enough and that I'm afraid of an enemy's sneak attack. Thus, before announcing the news of my father's death, I can not succeed the throne, which also gave Uncle time to usurp it."
