Chapter 1026 The Hungry Wolves

ผู้เขียน: Night Eleven
Celestia's voice was sickeningly sweet as if she did not care who might hear. "Boyfriend? How could I have a boyfriend, Derek? Who's spreading these rumors?

"He's just pursuing me, I never accepted. I only want you, Derek." Her voice faded with the closing door. Lost in thought, Ingrid lay in bed with her eyes open.

Dawn broke. Edwin had prepared a lavish breakfast to win over Fergus at the Carver family villa on the mountainside.

Ian had even arranged for Poeta to sit beside him. He wanted to observe them quietly, to see if there was still affection or if something had gone wrong.

Ian had not slept well as this was what he had been pondering all night. This morning, he found out about the social media drama through Edwin.

Fergus was not the only one sitting at the breakfast table now. A few shareholders had arrived together, supposedly to play chess with Ian. Ian could not leave them standing, so all were seated.

Only Fergus seemed unaware of what was happening. "Granduncl

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 2075 Looking for Us

    As long as the relic incident stayed secret, Wesson still had a chance to explain. He could accept punishment or a demotion. But if word spread that he had stolen Farshyan relics, Athara would make him a scapegoat, and he would be the focus of everyone's fury.Madden watched the building burn and ground his teeth. "Wesson, you're challenging Farshya. If anything happens to them, you'll go down with them."Wesson sounded detached. "As long as nobody knows what happened, no one will believe your one-sided claims.""You monster! If you had any conscience, none of this would have happened!" Madden was being held down and could only glare helplessly.Wesson sneered. "Conscience? Hah. If I had that, I wouldn't be chief of the NIO. The world is full of saints, but sinners are the ones who survive. If they die in there, both my ally and I can walk free."…At that moment, Aria heard voices above the basement."Mr Ahern should be here. Move the relics out and meet him." Aria and Landon t

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 2074 A Happy Life

    "Iris, what happened?" Aria frowned and reached out, but her hand passed through thin air. The sight confirmed her suspicions. Iris smiled gently. "Aria, it's time for me to go. I've been happy spending time with you."Her lower body was fading, leaving only her upper torso hovering. "Grandma said something that brought my memories back. I was supposed to be trapped here, but my brothers helped me escape. They told me to find someone or a scent I recognized to save them."Aria said quietly, "So the poem about the emerald and human was about you? If you can take human form and feel emotion, you must have existed for a very long time.""That's right. You're so smart." Iris kept smiling. "I need to return to the emerald doll now. I'm so glad I met you. Goodbye."She looked at Aria with reluctant joy. Slowly her form became translucent, then dissolved into a soft white light that flowed into the emerald doll in the crate behind Aria.Aria opened the crate and found an emerald doll i

    Aria stopped and looked at Iris. "Voice? What kind of voice?"Iris tilted her head. "Well, I don't know how to describe it, but it's definitely calling me over."Aria narrowed her eyes. "If that's the case, lead us there. We'll be right behind you.""Okay. Follow me," Iris said, nodding.Iris walked ahead, with Aria and the others following close behind.Suddenly, Aria glanced at Landon. "Have you already figured something out?"Landon paused briefly, then smiled. "You give me too much credit. I'm not that capable."She studied him for a moment before turning away. "Fair enough. I believe you."They followed Iris to an old building on the edge of Draketown. It looked to be at least a century old, worn with age, and its door secured only by a rusted lock.Just as Aria stepped closer, a middle-aged woman selling things by the roadside called out, "Are you all going in there?""That's right," Aria replied. "We'd like to take a look."The woman frowned. "You'd best stay outside.

    Aria turned slightly. "Look after them. I'll check it out."Landon replied, "Okay."Instead of heading straight for the glass cabinets, Aria stopped before a display filled with trinkets in the middle of the shop. The shelves were lined with imitation bronzeware, silverware, and porcelain—shiny, hollow pieces that betrayed their lack of worth.Still, Aria picked up one of the fakes and gave it a gentle tap, pretending to inspect it closely. "Sir, is this real? It looks ancient."She adopted the guise of an amateur. Blaine gave a faint, knowing smile. "Didn't expect someone your age to take an interest in antiques. Whether it's real or not doesn't matter. What matters is whether you like it. Since you picked it up, maybe you're fated with it."He spoke ambiguously, neither confirming nor denying its authenticity.Aria smiled and picked up a ceremonial amethyst ring. "What about this one? A friend told me a real ceremonial amethyst ring should have a patina, but this one feels to

    Aria continued strolling with Iris, quietly observing her reactions. As they passed by the various shops, Iris' expressions clearly revealed what she liked and disliked.Most of the stores that caught her eye sold Farshyan handicrafts or antiques.Aria turned thoughtful. She couldn't fully see through Iris, but she could sense the girl's purity and kindness. Otherwise, Aria would never have agreed to keep her close.Just then, a news report playing on a nearby shop's TV made Aria pause."Bringing you today's news. The atrocities on Shark Island have been exposed. The island's administrator, Moby Burke, has been brought to justice."He confessed to all his crimes. The NIO's chief, Wesson Laker, will now lead his team to restore a bright tomorrow for Los Stratos."Aria murmured under her breath, "So he's using Moby as a scapegoat to protect himself and those in power." She knew well that someone like Moby couldn't have kept such an operation running alone. There had to be someone

    Another young woman added, "My dad must be worried sick! It's all my fault. I insisted on coming here alone and got captured."What began as scattered whispers soon became a tide of grief that filled the room.Aria waited until they were done before speaking. "Let's go. I'll bring you home."The young women quickly gathered themselves and followed Aria down the hill.When they reached a clearing, they saw all the guests being forced to their knees.Aria looked up and froze when she spotted a familiar face—Wesson Laker from the NIO. She hadn't expected him to be here.Wesson began calmly, though there was a trace of displeasure in his voice. "Ms. Carver, I didn't expect to see you here. We received a tip about illegal activity and partnered with GP to investigate."Aria met his gaze. "Perfect timing, Mr. Laker. The owner of Shark Island is in my custody. What do you plan to do with him?"Wesson forced a thin smile. "Naturally, that'll be up to the courts. If there's nothing else
