The Genius Mage Chapter 41
Advertisement
Calder's resolute attitude completely infuriated the elders of the parliament.
Do you really not know your Audrey's strength and level?
With the help of the family's resources, she had cultivated for 18 years and was only a level-1 battle fighter. There was probably no one in the entire Davis family who was more useless than her.
Let alone the children of other noble families, even the daughters of the poor would exceed level 1 if they had worked hard for 10 years even without any resources.
Audrey's reputation as a piece of trash resounded throughout Spark City. As a father, how could you not know?
How much shame and bad reputation had this brought to the family?
The five families' grand competition was the most important competition in Spark City. It even determined the status of the five great families to a certain extent. To the five great families, this was a grave and important matter.
The Davis family had more than 500 young people under the age of 20, and there were only five young geniuses who could be sent to participate in the five-clans tournament.
There were only five people in the entire family who were qualified to participate. What right did Audrey have to participate?
"Calder, you've really gone too far. You have to know that Audrey has the mark of the Davis family on her. Everything she does will affect the reputation of the family. If she causes a scene in the five families' grand competition, you must bear this responsibility. You have to think clearly. It's still not too late to stop her now."
The family elder Pierre said with an incomparably cold expression. As the person with the oldest seniority in the family, he placed the most importance on the family's honor. He would never allow the family's juniors to act recklessly and do things that would damage the family's reputation.

"I'll take responsibility."
Calder said indifferently. He would not be the patriarch anymore. So why would he be afraid of taking responsibility?
Whatever responsibility he had, he would take it as well. It was nothing more than losing the position of the patriarch.
All these years, he had let Audrey suffer so much for the sake of the family. However, the family had treated the father and daughter like this even at the end. This made him feel disheartened.
This time, he stood firmly on his daughter's side. No matter what she wanted to do, he would support her.
"Very good!"
The grand elder laughed out of extreme anger. He said coldly, "Calder, there's no need to wait for the vote for the patriarch election in three months. After the five families' grand competition is over, the parliament will initiate coercive measures and revoke your patriarch's position. As for Audrey's marriage plan, it can not be changed either. She must marry into the Fairlie family. The family's orders are above everything else. No one can disobey them."
Grand elder Pierre was only one of the nine elders in the parliament. Therefore, he could not represent the entire family. However, after he said that, the other elders in the Parliament remained silent. It was equivalent to tacitly agreeing with the grand elder's order.
Obviously, they had already communicated privately and reached an agreement on this matter.
Calder's expression was calm. He was not surprised by this result. He was already mentally prepared for the worst.
Ever since his wife mysteriously disappeared and he had no one to rely on, he had been running into walls in this family as if he was treading on thin ice.
On the surface, he was the head of the family, but his situation was quite complicated in reality.
The decision-making powers of the parliament were no longer in his hands. They were all controlled by the elders in the family who had more seniority and deeper foundations.
This was also one of the reasons why Audrey, as the daughter of the patriarch, was bullied everywhere in the family.
If he, Calder, had the ability and power, no matter how useless Audrey was, who would dare to bully her?
In the end, it was all his fault.
