Entertained by Lily's remark, Arthur commented, "You're a great kid." After a pause, he added, "Anyway, it's best that you hide your identity for now.

Concern colored Arthur's face as he took a sip of tea. "Loid and you will settle down in Bridgeport-awolves' den! You need to lay low before you can protect yourself." If Lily had grown up in wealth in the Martinez family, Arthur wouldn't have bothered telling her about the dangers in Bridgeport as he would want his granddaughter-in-law to live without worry.

sshe was Shadowbane, a legendary figure whose services were Lily was generous, carefree, and only did what she believed to be right. She wasn't just another medical genius; i sought after Given Shadowbane's reputation, the great families in Bridgeport would love to pay for her services. Alas, no one had seen her in real life, and very few could track her down...
Shadowbane's lack of interest in money was rather bizarre. She judged her patients by their character and would not offer her services to wretched individuals no matter how much they were willing to offer.
On the contrary, she would willingly save the lives of those with upright character even if they could only afford to pay her a penny Arthur had heard about the ten patients from upper-class families with good reputations who had received treatment from Shadowbane According to the rumors, four out of ten of the patients paid a hundred thousand dollars each for their treatments-95 thousand dollars for the medicine and five thousand dollars for the consultation.
The four patients had suffered from their allments for a long tafter many renowned doctors had failed to treat them.
One of the patients was, in fact, dead. But Shadowbane gladly accepted one dollar in payment before performing acupuncture to revive the dead. The said individual was Yannick Dalton, the patriarch of the Dalton family Shadowbane also revived another dead man, yet she went ahead and charged him his entireworth-tens of billions of dollars.
Arthur knew that Lily would be in danger once news got out that she was Shadowbane "Grandpa Arthur, don't worry, I Eknow what to do." Lily appreciated Arthur's concern, but she wasn't worried at all about threats.

"Good to hear." Arthur did not lecture her anymore after seeing her confident look, He could tell that she was aware of the concerns he highlighted.
Lily nodded without a word.
Arthur turned his attention to Lold. "You gotta win the bid for Redshill at the Weiss family's auction tomorrow. Don Llet it fall into the hands of your Aunt Nora and Uncle Martin." Lily looked up with a frown. "Are you aiming to get Redushil too?" She fixed her eyes at Lold, hoping for an explanation Meeting her eyes, he beamed. "Redushil is yours. We won't fight you for it," Arthur seemed taken aback. "What's the matter? Lily, do you want Redushil as well? Loid nodded. "Lily's grandma needs Redushil. We must cede it to her." Arthur fell into a short silence.
Then, he looked up and remarked, "It's fine. The only reason we'r we're m bidding for Redushi is to keep it out of the hands of the Hidden Families. We can hand it to Lily." Taking a deep breath, Lily said to him, "Thanks, Grandpa Arthur."
Even if Arthur insisted on bidding for Redushil, she wouldn't back down If that happened, it would also spell the end of her relationship with the Laurlers.
"We're all family. It's no biggie. Rest early tonight. Get the money ready tomorrow for the auction later at night," said Arthur with a smile. "Sure,"
