In Terra, she is a hunter and a bad woman.

It is obvious that the other party has bad intentions at this time.

This also made Celinina realize the seriousness of the matter.

"Grandpa, he's been recuperating for half a year, but he's still not well?"

"not good."

The driver shook his head.

He didn't really want to say anything more, but... that was the fact.

Salvadore has been recuperating for half a year... Even considering his advanced age, recuperating for half a year is outrageous.

But his level was not high enough to allow him to see Salvador's situation, so he could only worry about it helplessly.

"is that so……"

Cellinina pursed her lips, her eyes revealing anxiety.

Meanwhile, Lappland's eyes gradually turned colder...

……

It didn't take too long for the two little ones to arrive at the Texas Mansion.

This piece of land once belonged to the Lady of Sicily, and was later exchanged to the Texas family during a dinner.

It was here that the Texas family prospered and grew step by step. Today, they have become a giant tree in Colombia.

As soon as I got off the car, several servants came up carefully.

They all received the information that Cellinina was coming back in advance, and now they are all prepared.

But at this moment, Lappland suddenly spoke.

"How about...we share a room?"

"Ok?"

When these words were spoken, the maids beside were stunned.

But Lappland continued to smile, "We have always lived together in Syracuse... We are good sisters."

After saying that, she smiled and hooked her arm around Celinina's shoulders, making the two of them close together.

This made the maids beside them look confused.

But after seeing Celinina nod, they didn't say much and just quietly moved their suitcases together.

After they left, Lappland's eyes narrowed slightly.

"What are you going to do next?"

"What's next?" Celinina turned her head slightly, a little puzzled. "Next, I should go see Grandpa..."

"..."

Lapland didn't say anything. She just looked at the girl in front of her silently, her silver-gray eyes looking at Celinina.

Then she sneered.

"Is it really okay to be so naive at this time?"

"What do you mean?" Celinina frowned.

Lapland picked up the gift box beside her and handed it to Celinina.

"You heard what the driver said just now on the road... Do you really think the current situation is under your and my control?"

"But he is my father!"

"He was before, and he can be later, but now, he's not your father, he's your competitor!"

Lappland grabbed her friend's shoulders seriously and warned her.

"Power can turn people into monsters... Why do you think I like Ms. Maria? Because she's always been the same."

"Although the Saluzzo family is not a long-standing large family, we have at least been passed down for more than a dozen generations..." Lapland held Celinina's face and moved his face closer.

The two people's faces were almost touching at this moment.

"Never, ever, ever put feelings above power... Even I've seen fathers kill their own children!"

Lappland said, exhaling the rich scent of incense.

And Cellinina's face turned slightly red due to her exciting actions, and she stood there in a daze.

After a moment, her eyes narrowed slightly.

"Have you been drinking?"

"no!"

"really?"

"Really do not have!"

"I'll tell Ms. Maria!"

“…Well, actually, I drank a little.”

After hearing Celinina's threat, Laplande finally couldn't hold on.

She nodded subtly, but tried hard to justify herself.

"I can't help it. After all, this is my first time traveling such a long distance... You don't know that I almost threw up in the car this week! I really can't sleep without drinking some wine!"

Laplande argued with reason, while Celinina looked at him in silence.

After a moment, she sighed helplessly.

"I understand... I won't tell Ms. Maria about you drinking in the car, but now, except in social occasions, you must not drink!"

Lapland actually has a mild alcohol addiction.

Although it was not obvious on weekdays, as a partner who ate and lived together, Cellinina knew that Lapland would get her some drinks from time to time.

Maria did not support this, but she did not personally give the order to stop it.

But this attitude also somewhat restricted Lappland's drinking activities...at least it didn't make her an alcoholic.

After all, Maria knew that under her high-pressure training, the two little ones had to find ways to relieve their stress... Just like Celinina's smoking, as long as Lapland didn't drink excessively, blood therapy would be enough to ensure her health.

Moderate drinking is not a problem.

Of course, if possible, she still hopes that the two little ones can stay healthy.

"Do not worry."

After hearing that Cellinina would not tell Ms. Maria, Laplande's expression became much more relaxed.

And Cellinina also took this opportunity to ask.

"You just said not to go see Grandpa...why?"

When it came to the point, Lappland's eyes became serious.

"You can't go see Mr. Salvadore yet..."

"As I said before, the internal conflict among you is very serious... At this time, you can no longer regard your father as a blood relative. You must regard him as an enemy. However, this enemy is still your friend in name only."

"What you should do now is go find him directly and tell him that you went to see him as soon as you got back. This will convey that you are under his control... As long as he still trusts you, we will have more room to act."

"On the contrary, if you go directly to see Mr. Salvadore... not to mention whether you can meet him or whether his people will stop you, just your action alone will make him suspect that you really want to seize power from him..."

"The worst that could happen is that you and your daughter might end up turning swords against each other!"

Laplande carefully analyzed Celinina's current situation to her.

Although Cellinina always performed well in Maria's strategy class, Lappland was obviously better at this kind of power struggle.

The main reason is that she has more practical experience.

Cellinina was not sure about Lappland's judgment, but she believed that her companion would not deceive her, so after hesitating for a while, she nodded and turned to walk into her father's office.

……

"Knock knock."

"Please come in..."

"Father..."

It didn't take much time for Cellinina to bring Lappland to her father's office.

He was a thin man who was about 1.8 meters tall.

He wore gold-rimmed glasses and had a solemn expression. Although his clothes were just everyday attire, he still wore them meticulously, looking like an elite.

Celinina's expression was as cold as ever, but the man showed obvious joy when he saw the girl.

"Oh, look who's back? My sweet little wolf girl."

The man immediately stopped writing the document in his hand, covered it and put it aside, then stood up, walked to the girl and gave her a big hug.

The strong feeling of warmth made Celinina dazed for a moment.

What followed was a strong sense of self-blame.

Although she didn't say it out loud, she had to admit that when Lappland analyzed the situation for her, she really treated the man as an imaginary enemy.

But at this moment, the warmth from the generous man called father made her shut her mouth.

This man... is his father...

Maybe he and his grandfather had a difference of opinion, or maybe everyone had different opinions on how to develop the Texas family.

But... he is his father.

How could he possibly attack himself?

After hugging Leonardo for a while, Cellinina also took a step back slightly.

The man smiled.

"You've been studying in Syracuse for three years. Did you bring back any local specialties?"

"Yes, father." Cellinina did not doubt the man's words. She nodded and handed out the box hidden behind her.

"This is a gift from Syracuse... I know you've never really liked Syracuse, but the handicrafts there are indeed very good."

Celinina said this, her expression still a little nervous.

She knew that her father had never liked Syracuse... This was a common understanding among everyone who grew up in Colombia.

They admitted that their ancestors came from Syracuse, but they felt that they were not Syracusans. They were mature and noble Colombians, and Syracuse... was just a rural place.

"How could that be, girl? I'm so happy that you can bring me a gift."

The man smiled and gently lifted the gift box.

He gestured to Celinina, and after receiving her nod, he gently opened the gift box.

Inside, there is a ring with a unique shape.

This was bought by her and Lappland when they were preparing supplies.

The jeweler recognized Laplande as the eldest daughter of the Saluzzo family, so he tried his best to sell these things.

The items were worth enough, so the girls bought them too.

"What a fascinating thing... Perhaps Syracuse isn't what I imagined."

The man picked up the ring and couldn't help but admire it a few times. Then he smiled and turned his head to look at Lappland beside him.

Although he already knew who the other party was from the envelope, he still smiled.

"Who is this……"

"Hello, Mr. Texas..." Facing a stranger, Lappland no longer jumped around like that. Instead, she took a step back very appropriately and lifted up her skirt.

"I'm a representative of the Saluzzo family and a friend of Cellinina. I came back this time to see the sights of Colombia... I'll probably have a lot to say in the next few days. I hope you'll accept this small gift."

"Oh, so you are the little princess of the Saluzzo family. Welcome to Colombia."

The man was still smiling. After he took the gift from the girl, he did not open it like Cellinina did. Instead, he put it aside and nodded slightly.

After casually asking the girl how she had been doing over the years, everyone gradually got to the point.
