Chapter 154

Author: Zesty Zing
The moment Amara stepped out of the venue, she exuded a chilly aura. "Find out who put Rebecca Miller in that chair. Use whatever means necessary."

Did anyone truly think she was calm? She had been slapped in front of that many people. She had endured it for the sake of the family. That was the only reason.

Fury rose in her throat, sharp enough to taste like blood. If a senior figure had struck her, someone older, more established, with years of authority behind them, the humiliation would hav

  • Nine Ungrateful Sisters   Chapter 160

    Bella had been busy all day. After everything that happened the night before, she had spent every waking hour going back through her own record.She refused to believe that a career she had bled for, every case, every commendation, every rank, had only happened because someone else had been quietly clearing the way.Yes, she had been unusually lucky, more than once. But that was how the world worked, right?Luck was part of the job. She had never once questioned whether that luck was hers or borrowed.But the file did not lie. Case after case, detail after detail, it all pointed the same direction. She was not chosen by the universe. She was propped up by a person.Oscar had said it was him. She had not believed him.But every thread led back to one name: Red Hawk.That made no sense, because she had never met Red Hawk. Never crossed paths with her. Never had any connection to her at all. That was what had brought her here tonight.Losing to someone better was fine. What matter

    "Let me show you," Oscar aid.A few minutes later, a shriek of disbelief rang out from inside the room. "Two billion? For one house? That's just one month of cash flow? I think I'm going to faint! Grandpa and Grandma couldn't dream this big if they tried!"…A few hours later, well into the night, Oscar stepped out of Rebecca's room.She had never seen anything like it. She had peppered him with questions, and it had taken real effort to get her to sleep at a reasonable hour.Oscar pulled the door shut.Natalie waited in the corridor. "Miss Miller's abilities aren't there yet, but I know what you're capable of as a teacher. She'll become exactly the person you hope for."It was a genuine compliment.Oscar shook his head. "I can only show her what I know. The path she takes is her choice. I just hope that whatever she chooses, she chooses the best version of it."He started down the corridor. "You waited this late. What is it?"Natalie produced a red transfer order. "Command w

    Oscar smiled at Rebecca from across the private dining room at Vermillion Hotel. "How is it? Good?"She looked as though she had eaten her body weight in food.The Draconia banquet had gone quiet after Amara's departure, but neither of them seemed affected.Yelena was handling the partnership discussions. Rebecca's personal contribution to the evening was an extra two pounds on the scale."Oh my, I ate that much?" Rebecca covered her eyes with one hand, then peeked through her fingers, grinning. "But it was so good. Five-star hotels really are something else."Oscar reached over and ruffled her hair. "If you like it, you can come every day. Vermillion belongs to Draconia too."Rebecca's mouth fell open.When Amara had walked out and taken half the room with her, Rebecca had been convinced she had ruined everything, from the event to Draconia's entire expansion in Silverton.Oscar, however, had not looked worried for even a second. As far as he was concerned, the Dracobsidian To

    If Jason had not known about the money, then he had come to the family of his own accord, believing he had chosen to leave his mother behind.The thought unsettled Amara. She had lost her own parents early. More than anything, she understood the bond between parent and child.She said nothing further. Ruby's failures as a mother could not be resolved in a single conversation. That was a problem for another time.Amara settled onto the sofa. "Yes. Your mother agreed to let you come to the family because I paid her 2,000,000 dollars. From what I saw tonight, she treats you like a transaction, not a son."Our family places great value on blood ties, but not every bond deserves the same loyalty. Keep your distance from her. That is my advice."She softened her tone. "Now, I have something to ask you. You said you saw Draconia's CEO's sister this morning at Silverton High?"Jason's expression had tightened the moment he heard about the money. The reaction faded quickly, smoothed over

    Ruby's expression faltered. "Oh, Amara."Amara was the only person in this household she truly feared. With the others, she could still play the elder card, push a little, and get away with it. Amara saw through all of that.In Amara's eyes, she was not Jason's mother. She was an obstacle.If Amara had seen her as anything else, she would have brought her into the household the moment she found Jason. She would not have left them separated for so long.The only reason she had been allowed through the door at all was because Jason had done work for the family.Amara's smile touched only the corner of her lips. "Ms. Granger, I can't say who will end up with the family's assets. But I can say it won't be you."Jason is a Chamberlain. I made that clear to you a long time ago. If he wants to inherit this family, he cuts his ties with you."The choice was his. Stay with you and remain poor, or come back here and inherit everything we've built."And you agreed to that arrangement your

    Jason had briefly been brought into the Chamberlain household as a young child, but he had been small then and not born to the same mother. The sisters had formed little impression of him.Later, he and Arthur lost contact. Somehow, that separation became a wound Arthur never overcame. That was why the family had been so desperate to find him. He was the only son, and the Chamberlain line had to continue.After Amara tracked Jason down, Ruby arrived with him as his mother.Amara had focused only on Jason. She had given Ruby little thought, which was why she had never arranged for the woman to be properly received into the household.This visit was a special allowance. Jason had been injured, and Amara had permitted Ruby to come see her son. That was how they ended up here.Unable to reason with Ruby, Irene turned her anger toward the figure sprawled across the sofa. "Jason, get your mother under control. This is our family home. It is not yours. You can do whatever you like wherev

    "If this gets out, how am I supposed to keep being the Chamberlain heir?" Jason jabbed a finger at George. "Beat him until he stops talking back."The two bodyguards stepped forward, ready to act.At that moment, another group walked in through the front door. They wore floral shirts, beach shorts

    Rebecca's voice trembled as she fought back tears. "I didn't steal anything! I just met my brother recently! You're the ones lying!"'If my grandparents hear I'm about to be expelled…' She could not even complete the thought.Her defense sounded thin and powerless."Expulsion isn't your only opti

    "There's no bus stop around here," Oscar said, scanning the road."It's only two miles," Rebecca replied lightly. "That's close."Oscar frowned. 'A girl her age, walking alone out of a place like this?'The Percham District, the city's shantytown, housed more than the poor. It drew drifters, loaf

    Diana covered her nose and crouched beside the trash bin. She sifted through the discarded herbal dregs, examining them one handful at a time.With each closer look, her frown deepened. These were common sedative and calming herbs, mild and standard. If something this ordinary could cure Amara's he
