SWNOVELS Chapter 1126
Chapter 1126 No One Can Bully You
Of course, Neera understood clearly.
“I’m an outsider. I’ve never lived with the Gordon family, nor have I been nurtured by them. Now, all of a sudden, I’ve become the
successor of the Gordon family. I’m like a fly in the ointment, which is bound to cause a lot of controversy. I suspect this news
has already reached the Gordon family headquarters, and they probably have their opinions. They’re just waiting for me to arrive
before they start making things difficult for me. Hence, what I’m going to face when I go back, I fear, will be endless difficulties.”
She knew well enough that there would be wave after wave of doubt waiting for her.
Perhaps those who were eager to act were trying to find her weaknesses.
Perhaps they might even be planning to deny her the successor’s role while Chad was not around.
The mere thought of that possibility gave Neera a headache as if a bucket was weighing on her head.
At first, she knew that the Gordon family was wealthy and influential, but she only considered it from a business perspective. She
hadn’t thought it through deeply, which was why she agreed.
If she had known the depth of the Gordon family’s influence, perhaps she would have backed off in the beginning.
However, since she had agreed, there was no turning back. Therefore, she might as well make the best of it.
She needed only to adapt to the situation. There would always be a solution to her problems.
Shane said, “Apart from the significant task of electing the district president, there’s an even more important matter you need to
attend to.”
Neera was taken aback. “What is it?”
“Declare your identity to the entire Phison and gain recognition from the Gordon family headquarters.”
After hearing that, Neera felt a sinking feeling in her heart. “How can we get the Gordon family headquarters to acknowledge
me? I’m afraid it’s not going to be an easy task.”
She felt as though accomplishing that goal was more difficult than ascending to the sky.
After all, in Essley, even just the third elder alone had already shown strong opposition.
Avery noticed her worries and comforted her in a gentle voice. “Don’t worry, it’s okay. I’ll go with you. The Gordon family, after all,
will give some respect to my Cox family. When we go, I’ll bring more people to back you up.”
Neera understood all at once and felt a slight chill in her heart. “Is it time to take action?”
Avery nodded. “There are some battles that indeed need to be fought, and must be won. In fact, I’ve already discussed this
matter with Mr. Gordon, and he has given his approval.”
Uncle Chad actually allowed me to lay a hand on the Gordon family? Isn’t this a bit too extreme? Is there really no other way?
Neera contemplated.
Her gaze swept over Shane, and then she glanced at the nearby Zephyr and Charles, wanting to speak but hesitating.

Zephyr had been with Neera for the longest time, and he was very familiar with her. He knew what she was hesitating about, and
immediately started to explain things to her. “Ms. Garcia, your primary objective for this visit is to establish authority. Only when
your authority is recognized will they submit to you wholeheartedly. Once that’s done, they won’t dare to overstep again. This is
crucial for your future succession of the Gordon family. Otherwise, I fear it will lead to endless troubles.”

Neera understood the pros and cons but couldn’t help feeling a bit helpless. It seems that what I’m about to face is a completely
unknown world. This kind of power struggle is nothing like the family feuds I knew before. It’s incomparable. Still, what other
choice do I have but to deal with this? After all, I don’t want this journey to be in vain. I want to take responsibility for Uncle Chad,
not wanting to let him down.
Avery served her a bowl of soup. “Just relax, don’t be too nervous. We’re all here to protect you. No one can bully you.”
“Thank you...” Neera picked up the spoon, but there was still some concern in her heart.
After breakfast, Avery took her out for a leisurely stroll.
Shane said, “I won’t be going. I’ll head back to the Gordon residence first.”
Neera looked puzzled. “You’re not going to wait for me to go together?”
Shane nodded. “I need to go back first and help you get things ready so that I can pave the way for you.”
After he finished speaking, he laughed and affectionately ruffled Neera’s hair as if he were her older brother. “Neera, don’t
overthink anything right now. Just rest here for the time being. Let Avery show you around. It’s quite fun here. Once I’ve got
everything sorted out, I’ll come and take you back to the Gordon residence.”
A warmth spread through Neera’s heart. “All right, Shane, you must be extra careful.”
“Hey, don’t worry about me.” After saying goodbye, he quickly left with Charles.
Neera followed Avery out the door.
Avery personally drove her around, playing the role of a tour guide, introducing her to the specifics of District Fourteen.
Upon hearing that place was actually just one of the cities in District Fourteen, Neera was utterly astonished. “We’ve been
wandering around all morning, and we’re still not done. This is just one city. How big must District Fourteen be?”
Watching her stare in astonishment, Avery smiled, “District Fourteen is probably about the size of two Essley.”
Neera was even more astonished, unable to fathom just how vast the entire Phison must be.
At noon, the two of them had lunch outside.
Neera suddenly remembered something and asked him, “By the way, I still don’t know the exact election date. When is it?”
Avery replied, “It will be in a week.”
