As Elder Howard made his way to the Desolate Canyon, Irving received an invitation from Starling City.
Previously, Irving had expressed his desire to gain more allies to Sophia, who, within just two days, had gathered the leaders of all the prominent families in Starling City together. The purpose of this invitation was to facilitate cooperation between Irving and the heads of the various families in Starling City.
Before his departure, Irving specifically addressed Wendy.
"After I leave, you might encounter some dangers. If you find yourself unable to handle any unexpected situations, just reach out to Vicky or Benjamin for help. They will definitely provide assistance. I have great trust in them, and I hope you can place some trust in them as well."
Upon hearing this, a hint of disdain crept onto Wendy's lips.
