Raina flicked her finger, lifting the pill tablet and examining it briefly. Then, she casually tossed the pill back into the small box with a snap as the lid closed.

She smiled. “Thanks, Senior Brother.”

Briar watched her handle the pill so nonchalantly and rubbed his forehead. “Be careful with that. It’s not easy to come by. If it weren’t for... never mind. You have it now. Just take it.”

Raina leaned forward slightly, moving closer to Briar. Tapping on the table with one hand, she grinned. “Of course. But Senior—you’ll be attending the Croft family’s birthday banquet too, won’t you?”

Briar replied, “Yeah. The Willow and Croft families go way back. Grandpa attends Old Master Croft’s birthday every year.”

Raina nodded. “Got it. Well then, I’ll take my leave.”

Briar stood up. “I’ll walk you out.”

Raina waved her hand. “No need. You’re swamped already. Don’t worry about me.”

Briar had already half-risen, but at her words, he sat back down. “Alright. Take care on the road.”

  • Jilted Heiress Strikes Back   Thoughtful Proposal

    Lord Blackridge, also chuckled, his tone familiar and indulgent. “Oh? Someone helped you once, and you repay her by wanting her dead. What kind of logic is that?”Sora lowered her lashes and said calmly, “I never needed anyone’s charity. Besides, I kill who I want, no reason needed. I just want her to disappear from this world forever—so she’ll never stand in my way again.”Lord Blackridge stepped down from his golden throne, circled Sora twice, then tilted his head and smiled slyly. “Looks like Young master Watkins’ cancellation of the engagement has really ticked off Miss Johnson.”At the mention of ‘cancellation,’ a flicker of cold displeasure passed across Sora’s face—gone in an instant.She lifted her head, looked at Lord Blackridge, and smiled. “They say Lord Blackridge knows everything. Seems that’s not a lie. But my private matters don’t concern you. Since you’ve agreed to the job, I expect you to fulfill your promise. Kill Raina. No matter the cost—I’ll pay it.”But Lord Blac

  • Jilted Heiress Strikes Back   No Grudge

    Operating Room.Raina had already changed into sterile surgical scrubs and was standing in front of the operating table. Leif lay there, eyes tightly shut. His face, once strikingly handsome and impeccably clean, was now smeared with half-dried blood and dust, making him look disheveled and pitiful.This man—always so composed and invulnerable in front of her, seemingly untouchable by harm—had treated her with utmost patience and care. And yet now, he lay here unconscious, his life hanging by a thread.She drew a steadying breath before reaching out to check his pulse. Though she had been feeling for his pulse periodically during the drive to ensure he was still alive, it was only now, in the stillness, that she realized—she was nervous.Even a little afraid.Confirming that his pulse was still there—faint but steady—was a relief.In a moment of inexplicable impulse, she raised her gloved hand and gently touched his face, lightly brushing the bloodstains on his cheek. The dried blood,

  • Jilted Heiress Strikes Back   Critical Condition

    The wind roared, the rain poured, thunder cracked and lightning split the sky—And yet, to everyone present, the world had fallen into a miraculous, eerie silence.Inside one of the Gurkha vehicles, a man broke out in a cold sweat and stammered in terror: “B-Boss, d-do we have backup?! Who… who the hell are those people?!”Another person, voice shaking, said, “No… no way… they’re not ours, right? Boss… Boss! Say something!”But the walkie-talkie remained deathly silent. Not a single reply.Someone suddenly slammed a hand against the device and roared, “Fuck! They’re not with us—boss ditched us! Fuck! What are you all standing around for? Waiting to get silenced? RUN!”The three Gurkhas acted at once, quickly turning around to flee.But as soon as they turned their vehicles, they were stunned.Sometime during the chaos, a fleet of over a dozen black off-road vehicles had silently appeared behind them, cutting off all escape routes.BOOM—Pale lightning twisted through the night sky as

  • Jilted Heiress Strikes Back   Perfect Swerve

    “Bang—”“Rumble—rumble—”The specially modified Gurkha roared like a wild beast as it slammed forward, its tires tearing through the earth and kicking up a storm of dust. The surrounding visibility dimmed, swallowed by thick clouds of debris.The final rays of sunlight faded from the sky as night descended, cloaked in a thin mist.Darkness had fallen.Three Gurkha vehicles lined up in formation, their drivers tense and gripping the steering wheels tightly, eyes fixed nervously on the swirling clouds of dust ahead.After a moment of silence, someone hesitantly muttered, “...Dead. She’s got to be dead, right? I hit her—I swear I hit her!”Another added, “I felt the impact too. No way she survived that. Boss, boss, we finished the jo—what the fuck?! She’s not dead?!”Someone screamed, “Fuck! Not again! When is this going to end?!”Another voice roared in frustration, “She’s still alive?! What the hell is she?! A damn monster?!”Amid the shouting and chaos, two blinding white headlights s

  • Jilted Heiress Strikes Back   Complete Maniac

    Someone on the walkie-talkie suddenly shouted, “Which damn idiot took this mission?! I quit! I’m done with this shit!!”A cold voice responded, “Too late to quit now. Once you accept a mission and don’t complete it, it’s death when you return anyway.”Another voice shouted furiously, “You guys still have time to argue about this now?! The target’s about to get away—how about doing your job first, huh?!”The moment this was said, the walkie-talkie fell into a sudden silence.A few seconds later, the argument started up again.While they were shouting and swearing, sounding like they were in a competition to see who could curse the loudest, Raina was already speeding away, leaving them further and further behind.Finally, someone on the walkie-talkie couldn’t take it anymore and cursed, “Son of a bitch! Didn’t they say that woman didn’t have a driver’s license?! Wasn’t it revoked?! Then how the hell is she driving like this?! I’m seriously thinking about apprenticing under her, holy shi
