Nine Ungrateful Sisters Chapter 564
The man's easy, familiar manner eased Clara's nerves, but she didn't accept what he offered. "I'm not hungry."He shrugged and tore the packet open himself.Whatever was inside crunched loudly and cleanly, the sound carrying through the empty night air. He might as well have been doing it on purpose, showing her there was nothing in the bag that would kill her.Clara felt warmth creep into her face, but she kept her composure. Her stomach, however, had no such restraint. It announced itself with a low, unmistakable growl.She caught it just in time. Pressing a hand against her abdomen, she drew a slow breath and managed not to look any more embarrassed than she already did."You eat with your gloves on?" she asked, if only to fill the silence.She had noticed how odd it was. Most people would take off at least one glove before eating. These were not disposable gloves, either. Meanwhile, he was eating something that left crumbs."Me?" The man held out his hand. "My hand's injured

The second option was beneath the elevated highway overpass. It was sheltered from the wind and warm enough to sleep through the night.The downside was the traffic. The constant roar of engines made it difficult to get any real sleep.The third option was the subway corridor. It sounded reasonable in theory, except the trains started early and ran late. Security would either move you along before you had enough rest or wake you at the crack of dawn.Then again, anyone reduced to sleeping in places like that was probably beyond caring about losing an hour here or there.Clara tightened her stomach and kept going. She reached her destination just before her legs threatened to give out beneath her.She stepped into Apricot Park. The open ground ahead was already dotted with tents. They didn't belong to campers. They belonged to people with nowhere else to go.The difference was obvious at a glance. The street sleepers' tents were small, dark, and dulled by layers of grime, pitched

Clara stepped out of the family villa into the darkness. She had no idea that Amara had decided to stay. All she knew was that her sister had changed completely.The woman Clara had grown up with had always been stubborn, but she had still known the difference between right and wrong.Now? After everything Jason had said and done, Amara had stood by his side and defended him.Clara couldn't stomach it. She would rather wander the streets than return to a room she had to share with someone like that, even if that someone was her own sister.Living beside a person who had lost all sense of right and wrong would slowly wear her down until there was nothing left.A clean break was better than a slow decay.Still, courage fueled by anger only lasted so long. Once she was out on the street, reality settled over her. She was worse off than the day they had all been forced out of the villa. At least, they had still had each other then.Now she had a few crumpled bills in her pocket, bar

Hilda looked as though she had been crying. Her eyes were swollen and red. "Diana, you're back!"On the way home, Diana had been wondering how she was going to explain everything to the others. Now she did not have to."Here, come sit down." Without another word, Giana pulled Diana aside and guided her to the edge of the bed. She remained silent for a long moment, simply sitting beside her as she let out a long, slow breath.Diana looked from one sister to the other, completely bewildered. She had never been the one to make decisions in the family. She simply went along with whatever the others decided.Even with Irene, the youngest, she usually deferred to Irene's judgment instead of insisting on her own. It wasn't because she was overly accommodating. She simply didn't have strong opinions.She was perfectly capable of handling everyday life, but if someone asked her for a thoughtful perspective, they might as well have asked her to bleed.So when everyone sat in silence withou

Oscar tried what had worked the first time. He attempted to disperse the vitalis and force the transformed arm back to normal.But he could only disperse the vitalis flowing through the rest of his body. The arm was attached to him. It had grown from his shoulder, yet it had become something entirely separate.It was a self-contained system. No matter what he tried, the vitalis inside the arm wouldn't respond to him. It circulated within its own boundaries and ignored every attempt he made to control it.Simply put, when only his fingers had changed, dispersing his vitalis had been enough to restore them.But the arm had finished becoming what it was meant to be. It had developed its own interior, its own contained world. Something had taken root within it and claimed it as its own.Oscar had lost jurisdiction over it.He sat for a long time with a knife in his hand, staring at the point where the arm joined the rest of his body.His body felt strong now. That strength came enti

"Yes!"The answer came at once, but their bodies refused to obey. Their legs felt like lead, and their arms hung limp at their sides.Stanley came through the door at that exact moment. He stumbled on the threshold and nearly lost his footing.But he was Boreas' personal guard. He caught himself after two unsteady steps, then stared at Oscar with undisguised alarm. "Mr. Stone!"Was this what the man was truly capable of?"Destroy the wall markings." Oscar's voice was low and steady again, but this time his gaze settled on Stanley."Yes!" Stanley didn't hesitate. He rushed forward and began scraping away the glowing points on the wall, one after another.With every point that disappeared, Oscar felt the invisible restraint weaken. Control returned to his body little by little.By the time Stanley had erased every point and every line, the paralysis released him completely, and the crushing pressure vanished.Stanley hurried back to his side, visibly shaken. "Mr. Stone, what jus

Amara couldn't afford to lose her composure. The moment she did, the headaches came.Gentle words had accomplished nothing. She stepped back and slapped Jason across the face with all her strength. "Snap out of it! You're completing this verification today whether you want to or not. And if you don

Jason froze at the gate. One more step, and he would be out.He had joined the family for money. Brotherhood, family honor, and the weight of a name had never meant anything to him.Now the man the family had thrown out like garbage had returned in triumph, backed by every powerful figure in Silve

Oscar settled into his seat. Only after he sat down did the others behind him dare to do the same.Not one of them chose a seat in his row. Instead, they arranged themselves in the row directly behind him, orderly and unquestioning.Oscar crossed one leg over the other and swept his gaze across th

When Amara remained silent for too long, Stanley leaned in and spoke in a sharp, low voice. "What are you standing around for? Get over here and greet your guests."Amara glanced at Stanley, then turned back to Oscar."You're Oscar? The one we used to call Oscar Chamberlain? The one we drove out o
