Aidan, the assistant, toldthat Martin had two sons and a daughter. The latter had sent his younger son, Corey, abroad for education while Kimberly, his daughter, was also overseas.

However, she was reckless and unruly. Among Martin's three children, his second son was a medical doctor, whom Nelson was proud of.

Aidan was hesitant when discussing things concerning Nelson. However, the former let down his guard and began gossiping withwhen he noticed my curious and friendly attitude.

"Although Mr. Nelson has contributed to Bourdamun, his son caused quite a stir. Martin's actions angered everyone, but they dared not speak up. Despite Bourdamun not being as prosperous, the Terrells were not short on money." Aidan seemed resentful as he continued, "We thought we could have a fresh start with Mr. Nelson's retirement. However, he has constantly meddled and suppressed Noah since passing the torch." I asked, "Didn't anyone complain about Nelson?" "No one dared to. Mr. Nelson would know about it before anyone could even say anything," Aidan described it tically, which showed it was the truth.

I was shocked, not expecting things to run so deep. Meanwhile, Jeremiah's unkempt and sweaty appearance cto mind. No wonder he was so arrogant.

"Whenever Bourdamun's residents finally had hope, Mr. Nelson would interfere. Everyone cursed him privately. They knew they couldn't do anything as long as Mr. Nelson was still alive. He always pressured whoever cto lead us into quitting." I couldn't help but smile at Aidan's words. I understood his helplessness.

He noticed my smile and said, "Don't laugh, Ms. Chloe. I'm only telling the truth. I knew you were different and pretty bold, unlike the people of Bourdamun." I jokingly remarked, "How'd you know that?" "Well, you were the first who dared confront Mr. Nelson so openly. I admire you for that. I'll quit if things don't work out. I've been wanting to explore the world anyway. I only stayed back after hearing about the new district. Otherwise, I would have left long ago." I was surprised, asking, "Do you plan on working elsewhere?" Aidan responded, “Many young people from here have already left. I would have joined them if my parents didn't pressure me. Since there wasn't much development here, it caused a rapid decline in Bourdamun's population." His reasons surprised me. However, it made sense why most sought better opportunities elsewhere, considering Bourdamun's proximity to Foswood.

I agreed with Aidan's sentiment, "There are more opportunities out there, after all." Aidan continued, "Those with connections beyond Bourdamunzor had help have already left. Now, houses here are worthless. The more open-minded ones no longer wanted their houses and simply left." Content belongs to św"What? Really?" I feigned surprise, encouraging him to share more.

"Everyone here considers this place an endless pit for the current generation and many more to come.novelbin

I couldn't help but chuckle, saying, “The Terrells are that arrogant, huh? Has no one questioned them?" Aidan said disdainfully, "Who would dare? The family established a solid presence here after making smoney. Besides, those who offend them and can't escape would face severe consequences.

"We thought things would finally improve after he retired, but uh... As you can see, it's gotten worse."
