NovelOnlineChapter 902 Three Mysterious Guests When we entered the courtyard, I discovered it was surprisingly large and elegantly designed. Despite its appearance from the outside, the courtyard inside resembled a palace. It was complete with pavilions, towers, and gardens.
I whispered to Ardie, "This place is so beautiful, like a palace." His eyes lit up as he looked at me. "You're smart. This was originally a palace that was purchased by someone who treated it as a cultural relic. He spent a considerable amount each year to preserve its beauty." I sighed, "No wonder it's so beautiful. The preservation efforts are impressive." Ardie chuckled. "Exactly. This place is not open to the public. Very few people can enter." This madeeven more careful, following him closely and observing every detail. After all, who knew if I would have the chance to chere again?

Archie, along with four gentlemen, was leisurely drinking tea and chatting. They were dressed quite modestly. Glancing around, they didn't look like prominent figures but more like ordinary people, maybe even farmers. Among them was an elderly man, and they were all engaged in a lively conversation with him.

"Archie, where did you find such a pretty girl for a daughter?" the others asked as they approached us, scrutinizingfrom head to toe. Archie burst into laughter. "Indeed, the Beringer family has been missing a girl like her. It seems she's been found after all these years." Two gentlemen, approximately Archie's age, quickly inquired, "What's going on?" "This is the girl Atlas has been looking for," Archie explained.
I realized that these individuals also knew Atlas, creating a sense of familiarity.
Archie continued, "The young man's efforts have finally paid off. He found her with perseverance and the blessings from above." "Ah? He really found her?"

The elderly man who had sat there motionless, his bright eyes fixed on me, had not taken part in their conversation.
Archie quickly ledto him, introducing, "Chloe, this is Mr. Gordon. He once saved my life." I quickly greeted, "Mr. Gordon, hello." Mr. Gordon had silver hair but a youthful appearance, was slender in stature, and had a face in excellent condition. His sharp eyes gleamed with wisdom. I met his gaze directly. en.swhovels
