On the contrary, Lorne, as a bastard, was born to be on his side.
Most importantly, Lorne set a precedent for illegitimate children to legally inherit family property.
The whole thing itself has special meaning to John.
When Lornfast entered Tallinn City for the first time, he wanted to make contact with him.
But due to delays in business, he was not in Tallinn City at that time.
Therefore, Dead Ghost Fast was not able to get on the line with John at the beginning.
Later, when John came back, he heard about Fast's bumpkin's behavior and realized that he was a helpless man, so John gave up his plan to contact Fast.
I didn't expect things to change so quickly, in less than a month.
Lornfast's name came to his ears again, but this time it was so negative that he couldn't tell whether it was true or not.
It wasn't until the message from Gardner that John confirmed his next plan.
During these days, Lorne's reputation in Tallinn City was also due to John's contribution.
Those few words he said at the beginning were not specifically meant to compliment Lorne.
John was indeed planning to go out of the city to meet him, and even without Lorne asking, John himself would take the initiative to help him.
"But things are not as bad as you think.
The Baker family's manor is relatively far away from Tallinn City.
It will take at least half a day to go there.
And what they wanted to talk about did not reach an agreement so quickly.
So, we still have a chance.”
Lorne didn't realize that in John's mouth, he had been using highly antagonistic pronouns like "them" and "us".
But he was particularly interested in John's last sentence that there was still a chance.
When he thought about it, there was no sure way to win except assassination.
Unable to bear the curiosity in his heart, Lorne asked in a low voice: "What can I do?"
"Storm time with them.
This half-day is our opportunity."
No one has studied the problems of the nobles more thoroughly than John.
They will not take action rashly before finalizing all the benefits.
The entanglement of countless interests has also caused their work efficiency to be low.
Some things that can be finalized on the spot often require a lot of time to integrate.
In the past, this kind of problem wouldn't have been a big problem.
Because everyone has the same virtue, no one can get ahead of anyone else.
But once they met an unruly person like John, it became their weakness.
He didn't need to waste time with Lorne to calculate how much he paid and how much he gained.
As long as he thought it would be beneficial to him, John would immediately give it a go.
One sentence couldn't clearly express what he meant, John added.
"You're lucky, Lorne.
The Archduke is in Habsburg now.
We just need to go see him right now.
As long as the Archduke recognizes your legal inheritance, no one can shake your position."
It sounds simple, but the key issue is that the Grand Duke of the North cannot be seen.
As Lorne, the most he can do is to witness the Grand Duke's style in public.
But what they want to discuss cannot be done in public.
Only those truly powerful nobles can meet the Grand Duke alone.
"It will be dark soon, and it will be troublesome to meet the Grand Duke at that time.
We should really hurry up."
It will be troublesome for Lorne to meet the Grand Duke of the North, but as John Carter's son, he must have a way to meet his father. .

But why should he help himself?
Listening to John's words, it was less than an hour since Lorne saw him.
Most of what they said during this hour was complimentary to each other.
What was John Carter trying to do by helping him?
Lorne waited for John Carter to reveal his purpose, but what he did was so strange that Lorn, an earthling, couldn't keep up.
No demands were made, and the bargaining and adding method in Lorne's mind had no chance of appearing.
Pulling Lorne, taking Andy and Maxi.
John Carter greeted: "Lorne, what are you waiting for?
Let's go see the Grand Duke now.
It will be difficult at night."
Giving without expecting anything in return either has ulterior motives or bad intentions.
Anyway, Lorne would not believe that John would go through fire and water to help him just based on Gardner's letter.
You must know that he is now rich in wealth.
It's a good thing that it's pie in the sky, Lorne should be careful before he is cautious.
"Baron Carter, do you think the Grand Duke is really willing to see me?
I think it would be better for me to wait outside for the Grand Duke's orders."
As long as he can see the Grand Duke of the North, Lorne doesn't need to worry about John playing tricks behind his back.
What a means.
He was just afraid that John would bring him into Habsburg and face all kinds of difficulties, and finally force him to sign an unequal treaty like Marquis Clark did.
Seeing Lorne's worry, John smiled indifferently.
Contracts are indeed a strong bond of mutual protection between nobles, but he values emotional investment more.
As just a baron, he is not qualified to play a large role in the contract.
People who trust him will not regret it because of the lack of that piece of paper.
For those who don't trust him, even if they sign a dozen contracts, at the critical moment they will betray those who should.
And as long as he showed up in the Northern Archduke's study with Lorne today, their alliance relationship didn't need any other proof at all.
Everyone would naturally put him and Lorne together.
There was no need to make special demands, John relied on his sincerity to reduce Lorne's vigilance.
"The Grand Duke won't mind these little things, and I mentioned you when I chatted with the Grand Duke two days ago.
He is very interested in you, and I believe that as long as I tell him, he will be willing to meet you."
After a pause, John whispered something that surprised Lorne.
“I heard that Lorne you have some disputes with Lawrence Baker of the Baker family, and it should not be a secret that the Baker family hates me.
I think you can definitely guess some of the reasons. " John seemed to be planning to tell him something secret, but given their relationship, Lorne felt that he shouldn't pry into the other person's secrets.
Sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing.
Could he still use this to blackmail John or the Habs family?
"No need to say it, I understand."
Nodding, Lorne wanted to stop John from talking.
But John had no intention of stopping at all.
He interrupted Lorne and continued the topic.
"It's ridiculous to say that the illegitimate child seems to be our fault.
You must have felt the feeling of being pointed out by others.
When you were young, you could pretend not to understand anything, but as you get older, it really feels uncomfortable.
Feel good Lorne, why do you think I should help you?”
