Chapter 272 (2): Introduce Yourself When Being a Good Windsorian
Had Alan gone after any other Tulip Families, Celeste and Juno wouldn’t have been invested enough to make a move, but the Lando family was different. Wayne, the Lando heir, was very likely a reincarnated angel.
Juno had been trying to get on Wayne’s good side but hadn’t had a way in. Now that the opportunity presented itself, she decisively came to offer the Lando family a helping hand in a moment of crisis.
If one didn’t offer help in the harsh winter, they would be nothing but a stranger when spring days came. To make a friend—a good friend—it was best to offer a hand when the target was downtrodden.

Before coming, Juno had called the Lando Estate to warn Auston that there was an ambush in the alleyway of the theater. Veryl had picked up the phone.
Juno had been testing whether Wayne was a reincarnated angel, even making commissions to lure him to the middle of nowhere so that his calls for help wouldn’t be heard.

Now, there was no need for a plan like that. Alan was nice enough to play the villain, and given his Legendary rank, he would surely be able to force Wayne to do his best. Even if Wayne didn’t show up, the help was offered, and Auston would reveal his secret. They would win one way or another.
Although Celeste had ulterior motives, he was here to help. When he saw Megan open her mouth to breathe fire ruthlessly as a great dragon, like she wouldn’t stop until she tore down the gates to Heaven, he detonated the bomb that should be in Megan’s heart without hesitation.
Biu!
The white dragon froze, and she exhaled black smoke rather than fire. After that...
