ANMELDENAnya's face filled with shock as she asked in disbelief, "Really?""Really."Anya could no longer stay calm. Her whole body trembled.A few minutes later, she quickly dialed Zeke's number."Zeke, listen to me. Hazel…"While Anya was making the call, all the guests had arrived."Stefan, you invited so many of us here and made such a big fuss. What exactly is this about?" someone finally asked."Yeah. Even if it's a celebration, there should at least be a reason!"Some of the guests were already too impatient to hold back their questions.Stefan glanced at his watch."Just wait a little longer. The most important person hasn't arrived yet."That only confused everyone even more.The most important person?Hazel, who already thought she understood what was happening, started breathing faster."Is this the place?"Just as everyone was wondering, an abrupt voice came from the entrance.Moments later, they saw a familiar figure walk in.Evan."He's here."Roxanne quickly n
Even Cynthia's eyes lit up.If someone her age could be moved by this, then a younger, far more emotional person like Hazel would feel it even more.Hazel would definitely be touched."Well," Stefan said thoughtfully, "the problem with those two is that they’ve lost the feelings they used to have for each other. So we’ll help them find it again, little by little. Once that feeling comes back… nothing will be able to stop it."Both of them needed it.Both of them needed to rediscover what they once had.…At that moment, Hazel and the others were already on their way.Knowing in advance what was about to happen, the three heiresses were in excellent spirits."Hazel, how do you think Evan will apologize to you?" Anya asked dreamily.She was so excited.Hadn't everything they'd done been for this very moment?Evan would stop resisting, obey them again, and give Zeke his blood.It almost felt like a lifetime ago.Hazel thought for a moment before smiling."Based on what I kn
"What? He's already been married before?"Graham and Sadie were completely stunned.The Laurent family had always carried themselves with refinement and class. Anyone who married into Sean's family would, at the very least, be a respectable intellectual from a well-matched background with a spotless reputation.Yet the man Belinda was talking about had already been married?Sean's daughter had fallen for a man with a failed marriage?Even more shocking, Sean and Belinda actually supported it.It was nothing short of unbelievable.Graham felt as if his entire worldview had just collapsed.Sadie seemed to think of something and couldn't help asking, "For you to speak of him so highly, Mrs. Laurent, he must be someone extraordinary. A man who stands at the very peak in every way, right?""You could say that."Belinda nodded, smiling."Anyone who truly knows him says he is brilliant and extraordinary. Anyone who has ever received his help wants to marry their daughter to him. Le
Stefan told him there was a banquet the following evening that he had to attend."A banquet? What banquet?"Evan froze.'Another banquet? Is it going to be like the last one?'"It's a very important dinner. I've invited a lot of relatives and friends, so Evan, you absolutely have to come! And don't worry—it won't be like last time. I promise."Stefan repeatedly emphasized how important the banquet was and assured him repeatedly that this time would be different."Alright. I'll go."Evan honestly had no desire to attend another dinner like that, but Stefan would not stop pressing him.Besides, both Stefan and Cynthia had promised him several times that things would be different."Evan agreed. We have to start notifying everyone!"Stefan and Cynthia exchanged a knowing smile.They had invited a large crowd. Aside from the entire Solberg family, they had also invited members of the Golden family and the Leighton family.The three daughters from those families often spent time
Sylvie felt like she was about to lose her mind.Just then, Ivana called her over for something, so she had no choice but to drop the argument."Bye!"Estelle waved at her sweetly, looking utterly pleased with herself.That smug smile was enough to make Sylvie's blood boil.At that moment, the war officially began.…"Aunt Ivana, what did you need me for? The drakeblood gemstone issue's already been resolved."When Sylvie arrived at Ivana's house, she downed three glasses of ice water in a row before finally calming herself.Ivana blinked in surprise."I wasn't planning to ask about the drakeblood gemstone."Then, she smiled slightly."I actually wanted to ask—Evan's divorce cooling-off period with his ex-wife is almost over, isn't it?""Yes. Only seven days left.""Is that so? Seven days…"Ivana's eyes flickered thoughtfully."What's wrong, Aunt Ivana?"Sensing something odd, Sylvie frowned.Because of their family connection, even though she knew Ivana and Evan were
When Evan's divorce was finalized, it would mean one thing—both of them would finally have a chance.And with the cooling-off period almost over, only seven days remained.Both Sylvie and Estelle had already started making their moves.Sylvie still carried herself like the lady of the villa, managing the household with flawless order.She even helped ease Evan's burdens, supporting him quietly and gently.With Hazel and the other heiresses serving as cautionary examples, Sylvie carefully avoided every pitfall they had fallen into.Estelle, however, was the complete opposite. She followed Evan everywhere like a shadow.She even followed him during training, refusing to leave his side for even a moment.Sylvie finally couldn't stand it anymore and dragged her outside. "Can you act a little more mature? Evan's busy! And what's with the way you keep calling him like that? Since when do you get to speak to him like that?"The more she spoke, the angrier she became. How had she en
Fury burned in Hugo's eyes. He roared, "I will not allow scum to tarnish my dignity! The Monk Duo serves as a message! The Overlord isn't the only one who deserves respect in Silverton! I do as well!"…Evan wasn't expecting Hugo's revenge to come so soon. Hugo showed up just when Evan was agoni
They had sent Neil to "save" him, and now, Evan was denying it completely. Worse—he was twisting Zeke's intentions and accusing him to their faces.The three heiresses blew up."Evan, have you no shame? If it weren't for Zeke and us, you'd be dead! Not being grateful? Okay, but how dare you questi
Evan hoped to find another rare treasure like the drakeblood root.Hugo truly lived up to his reputation as an obsessive collector of antiques. His entire mansion was filled to the brim with them.Hugo tried his best to curry Evan's favor, saying, "Mr. Norwood, do take your time. Just take whateve
That's right. What they were feeling was pure, unadulterated fear.The Monk Duo, who had spent their entire lives making others tremble, were showing that very emotion themselves. No one had ever imagined they would look like this one day."M-Mr. Wells… Is the Monk Duo going to lose?" One of the m
