Greatest Legacy of the Magus Universe

Chapter 934: Attachments

Ballard Estate, Uptown Quarter.

The entire manor was drowned in overwhelming sadness and misery. The family members were beside themselves, mourning the loss of Hayes Ballard.

Upon his passing, he left behind a grieving widow and several children, their lives suddenly overshadowed by loss and uncertainty.

Hayes’s mother had locked herself in the room, sobbing uncontrollably. Outside her door, several maids and servants had gathered, their eyes filled with tears as they repeatedly called out to the lady of the house, hoping she wouldn’t do anything reckless.

Scenes like this played throughout the manor. The Ballard Family, with all its members, was now wallowing in grief and pain over Hayes’s death.

It was evident that he was truly liked and respected by all the family members.

Within the study on the top floor, Ives Ballard sat slumped against the wall, his back pressed to the cold stone.

The room was in complete disarray. Wooden shelves lay splintered, pages torn from books littered the floor, glass windows were shattered, and chandeliers hung in broken pieces.

It was almost as if a raging tempest of sorrow had swept through the study, leaving only devastation in its wake.

Ives Ballard had a vacant look on his face, staring blankly into the void. He had wept until his eyes could shed no more tears, screamed until his voice was stripped raw and silent.

All that remained was a blank expression and a heart devoid of any feelings.
