Chapter 1660 Plot Twist

ผู้เขียน: Night Eleven
The crowd buzzed with conversation while Durand's lackeys eagerly chimed in. After all, they had only joined the Chamber of Commerce to make money.

"Back when the Grisham family was in charge, they blocked every opportunity to profit. And now? Even their distributors are in trouble. My friend said their market value has plummeted—it's a disaster! They'll be bankrupt in no time," one member laughed.

Durand relished hearing about the Grisham family's downfall. Still, he kept up his act, wearing a mask of sympathy. "They're still our friends. It pains me to see them like this.

"When their stocks hit rock bottom, I'll have someone from the Chamber reach out to Mr. Grisham Senior. Maybe we can offer to buy some shares and help him out."

But everyone could tell Durand wasn't trying to help—he was clearly provoking Clyde.

Laughter erupted around the room. "They might not even last that long, not with that precious granddaughter of his dragging them down!"

"They deserve it. She tried to

However, Lucas was in charge at the time, and he was determined to clear Aria's name within the boundaries of the law.Besides, Aria had saved far too many students.

In a way, Lucas was doing Landon's job.Within minutes, the buzz around Aria only intensified.

On the other hand, many

    "This is just my personal opinion, but I want to express my sincere gratitude to her."When statements like this were posted one after another, they set the internet abuzz."What does that even mean? I don't get it!""Isn't it obvious? They're saying Aria was falsely accused.""And that's not all. There's even a corruption case involved. I'm a bit lost.""Wait, how can someone share a personal opinion in an official statement? They've got to be joking.""You're the one who's joking. Check his position—he's a newly appointed state official, and he holds a military rank!""So… we went after the wrong person?""I told you from the start that Ms. Carver never needed to fake a persona.""Exactly. After rereading the news, I think she's even more impressive than the 'persona' people kept criticizing. She got involved in the stock market to save it! Seriously, she's capable, wealthy, and actually cares about ordinary citizens. Why else would she take the risk?""If this involves for

    Although Leonardo started to calm down after hearing Durand's reassurances, his expression remained grim.Seeing this, Durand approached him with a smile. "Mr. Lincoln, members of the Chamber of Commerce will be arriving soon to celebrate my appointment as acting chairman. You should join us. If it weren't for you, the Grisham family might still be in our way."Leonardo gave only a curt nod, offering no real enthusiasm. He had never held Durand in high regard—he saw him as someone skilled at currying favor but utterly lacking in capability. Still, he kept those thoughts to himself.Durand, however, picked up on the perfunctory tone. Internally, he scoffed at Leonardo, thinking the old man was a fool who didn't know what was good for him. Once Durand officially secured his position, he planned to make Leonardo pay for his condescension.Outwardly, Durand remained respectful, which slightly eased Leonardo's mood. He had been on edge ever since losing contact with Amos.A gnawing reg

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 1658 Confess

    Over the years, Rocco had been shielded by the fortune he stole. Under normal circumstances, he shouldn't have been able to see the spirits.Amos instinctively stepped back, his face pale. He couldn't help but wonder if Aria was the one who had stripped Rocco of his fortune.But their boss had once told them that the ward protecting Rocco was unbreakable. Even the guardians of the Netherrealm wouldn't be able to interfere with it.After all, the fortune had been borrowed under the permission of the Divine Laws. If allowed, it was supposed to follow Rocco through several lifetimes.Amos' eyes widened in disbelief as he watched Rocco collapse to the floor, sobbing uncontrollably. No one had ever mentioned that Aria possessed knowledge of the Decatorian way.In the room, apart from Aria's subordinates, Amos was the only one left who still faced sentencing.Aria no longer needed to hide anything. She approached Rocco slowly. "Take your time with your revenge," she said softly. "You h

    The crimes Rocco had committed in Southbury revealed just how inhuman he truly was. Fortunately, Aria was well-versed in dealing with people steeped in such malice. She toyed with her amethyst pendant and chuckled. "It sounds impressive—that someone told you using others' blood could bring you fortune and prolong your life."But didn't they also tell you? The more fortune you steal, the more spirits will cling to you."Rocco paused at that, then laughed scornfully. "Spirits? They're nothing but lowly creatures. If they had any strength, they'd have fought back while they were still alive. What can a bunch of nobodies possibly do to me?"His arrogance was suffocating. With all the fortune he'd stolen, he believed that even if he were sentenced to death, he could still enjoy wealth in his next life.Aria saw straight through him. "You're so fearless because you think the fortune you borrowed will secure you a better reincarnation. That's why you're not afraid to die."She smiled c

    Amos hadn't expected Aria's investigation to go this deep. If she knew so much, he wondered why she hadn't just detained him from the beginning.Aria could read his thoughts. "Normal economic crimes would be too merciful for people like you. Now then, Mr. Lune—it's time to meet your mentor."With a snap of her fingers, the door on the other side of the room opened.Rocco, who had overheard the entire conversation, was trembling with rage. He looked like he wanted to kill Amos.Now that he finally had the chance to speak, Rocco couldn't contain himself. "You ungrateful bastard! If I hadn't promoted you, you'd still be stuck in that rural backwater! You'd never have achieved anything without me. How dare you pin everything on me!"Amos felt a jolt go through his head at Rocco's words. He turned to Aria and realized that he'd been set up.But Aria ignored him and stood up. Rocco continued screaming at Amos, completely destroying the calm and genteel image he usually maintained.Now

    Aria's gaze flickered. "What about them?"Amos hesitated. "I'm sure Mr. Kelsall must have brought this up."Aria smiled. "He only talked about your crimes. There's no way he would expose his own crimes."Upon hearing that, Amos clenched his jaw. "I was just following orders."He looked up at Aria, trying to appear cooperative. "Ms. Carver, I'm sure you have investigated your grandmother's death and the reason behind your mother's fallout with the Grisham family."He continued, "Mr. Kelsall orchestrated all of it. He knew the bond between the Grisham and Carver families dated back to the war era. It wouldn't be easy to break them apart over minor conflicts."Even when your father deceived your uncles, Mr. Grisham Senior still chose to forgive the Carver family. As long as Mr. Carver Senior paid a visit, their relationship held firm."Mr. Kelsall could never understand how they remained so close. But he was determined to drive a wedge between them. Both families held considerable

    Amos felt like he was about to faint. No matter how many scenarios he had considered, he never expected Rocco to actually fall under suspicion.Aria stood up, one hand resting on the table. Her voice was calm but clear. "I've taken note of some of your skills. For example, while I was branded a country bumpkin, you were hailed as a born-and-bred Ludwiten citizen—even though we come from the same hometown."Amos' eyes widened. His background was what he cared about the most, and the one thing he had worked desperately to rewrite.He drank hand-ground coffee, listened to vinyl records, and filled his home with Ludwiten antiques, all to convince people he was one of them. But how could Aria know where he was really from?Aria continued slowly, "You look surprised. Your boss filled me in on most of your details."Amos clenched his fists. He didn't want to believe her. But Aria wasn't done yet. "It's not surprising, really. Some higher-ups always need a scapegoat to shield themselves.
