Casey watched his retreating figure and watched Clara with a heart full of sympathy. "Clara, I know you're in pain right now, but isn't lan suffering as well? Maybe taking stapart is the best choice for both of you." Clara's tears, which she had been holding back, started streaming down her cheeks. "Dad, why is it that we still have to face this storm after all we've been through? Could it really be, as Heiman said, that without completing our wedding, we'll continue to face trials?" Casey wrapped her in his arms to comfort her. "Hardships will always pass. It's just that this difficulty is a bit too much. Even someone as capable as lan, coming up against several of Europe's wealthiest families, finds himself stretched too thin." Clara looked up at him. "Dad, if we all leave him, won't he be even more distressed? How will he save Katherine, and how will he save his grandpa?"

Chase chimed in, "Even if our families don't have as much power as the Yorks, together, we should still be of suse. We can't just watch you get knocked down. We've never done that since we were kids." "Right, we've always faced things together." lan's cold gaze met theirs. "Facing this means death, don't you understand? Even the powerful Yorks can't withstand it, let alone your families. Connor wants to eliminate all the powers around me, ensuring I can't make I comeback.
My mother and grandfather are in his grasp, and I can't confront him directly. We need a long-term plan for this." "And what about you? You might not let us get involved, but what about the Yorks and the Campbells? They are Clara's family. You're not planning to divorce Clara to keep them out of this, are you? lan, if you really leave Clara, I think Sasha will explode on you." Chase was frustrated and lit a cigarette.
