Chapter 1692 From Fear to Pride

作者: Night Eleven
Under Orion's control of the Chamber of Commerce, local members had found themselves at a disadvantage compared to foreign investors.

Even if Orion was out of the picture, the business industry in Ludwiten always favored outsiders. All attention was focused on Orion only because the Draycotts were oppressive.

In reality, they weren't actually afraid of Orion himself. What scared them were his connections—the ones that could make or break their companies. How could they not suck up to him?

Before Aria arrived, they had already imagined their fate by looking at those who had been taken away. They never expected anyone to spare them. After all, they didn't support the Grisham family before this.

They believed they hadn't harmed the Grisham family—they were just trying to survive. But who would believe that?

They never expected Aria to help them. If she gained influence, surely the Grisham family would benefit, while outsiders like them would be lucky just to avoid arrest. Getting

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 1875 Sam Tracks His Target

    Right now, everything happening in Portfall had come to a stop, but that was only on the surface. It seemed like this sudden chaos was happening because someone was pulling the strings behind the scenes. Sam looked at the retreating crowd and let out a deep breath. Standing beside him, Piper was so scared that she had collapsed to the ground. This was her first time dealing with anything like this. Sam saw this and helped her up. "Piper, they're gone. Let's go rest for a bit." Piper's voice was shaky. "Okay." Everything that had just happened came fast and left just as quickly. … Just then, Feran ambled past, map in hand, poring over it with intense scrutiny. He'd practically combed every inch of Portfall, yet not a single clue to the treasure had surfaced. Feran's eyes grew dark. Was this just some rumor? If that was the case, then coming to Portfall had been a complete waste of time. Suddenly, a man in black appeared next to him. "Sir, something seems off." Feran lo

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 1874 Strange Omens

    The Glowstones were so ridiculously bright that some evil spirits were literally hiding under rocks to escape the glare. And the Skyfeathers had brought way too much celestial wine. Every time they flew overhead, they would hear this heavenly music playing. On top of that, everyone knew what it meant for Shadowspire when the Pahanas, white tigers, Vermilion Birds, and White Aegises all showed up. Wherever those beasts went, the evil spirits did everything they could to become invisible. Every clan had rushed here from all over the place, kicking up massive clouds of black mist and making the ground shake with all their footsteps. Aria could definitely feel all the chaos going on outside from her spot in bed. The servants didn't dare get anywhere near the room. They were stuck watching from way back behind the curtains, still trying to get some water ready for their queen. Even without knowing the full story, they could tell the night had been pretty intense. Aria's eyebrows s

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 1873 Explaining the Truth

    Sam had no idea when Aria would be able to come and find him. But once she showed up, all these problems would become laughably easy. "Here's your fruit, sweetie." Margaret came from behind carrying a plate of fruit and set it on the table. "Take your time eating it. If you need more, just let me know, and I'll get you some." Sam looked up with a small smile. "Thanks." Margaret looked at Sam warmly. "No need to thank me. I'm going to get back to work now. You just sit here and don't go wandering around, okay?" Sam nodded in response, picking up a fork to pop some fruit into his mouth. Behind him, the study had become unusually quiet, nothing like the shouting match from earlier. "What did you just say?" Piper stared at the old man in shock. "Are you saying my mom chose to leave to protect me?" Sawyer nodded heavily. "Back then, your mother stayed by my side no matter what happened. Even when life was dirt poor, she never abandoned me. People used to call us the perfect coup

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 1872 Wedding Night

    As Landon's words fell, the scene around them changed. The sterile hospital room with its heavy disinfectant smell was gone. All the sounds grew distant. They were now in Ghost City, where demons roamed and countless spirits gathered in the deepest part of the Spectral Realm. Everything was cold on the highest level except where the Shadowlord lived. Hot springs seemed to fall from the sky as water droplets hit the stone surfaces. The warmth behind her reminded Aria of exactly where she had ended up. Nobody would disturb them here for sure—the barrier he had created was the same place where he had once kept her captive. When Aria tried to move, the chain around her ankle would pull her back into his arms. Golden tent hooks held silk curtains that fluttered in the breeze, creating an atmosphere of endless intimacy. Landon still looked sharp in his suit, but he now carried an ancient kind of elegance. The scent of sandalwood mixed with pine smoke suddenly enveloped everything.

    After speaking to Piper, Neil slowly walked toward her. But just as he stretched his hand out, his arm froze in midair. He looked down to see a little kid grabbing his hand. He frowned. "Where'd this little brat come from? Get lost and go play somewhere else." He tried to grab Piper but found he couldn't use any strength at all. When he tried to grab Sam with his other hand, Sam lifted his foot and kicked him. Neil instantly went flying. Neil rolled around on the ground while his buddies rushed to help him up. Neil was furious. "That little brat's crazy strong! Everyone, attack him at once!" When the others heard this, they all moved toward Sam. Piper's voice shook. "Sam, we need to run! These guys are dangerous!" Sam grinned. "Just… Just watch, Piper. We don't need to run." As soon as he finished talking, the other men had already gotten close to Sam. They all reached out at the same time, trying to trap him. Sam just rolled his eyes at this. Didn't they know that he was

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 1870 Bringing Aria Back

    Landon's voice was low and magnetic. Maybe because he hadn't spoken in so long, his voice still carried a slight rasp. The nurse froze briefly, then immediately said, "She hasn't been asleep for long. It's just from last night until now..." Before the nurse could finish answering, her professional instincts kicked in. She ran toward the door while shouting into her radio, "Dr. Berglier, the patient in 501 is awake! Yes! The male patient. That's right!" Landon didn't care about the chaos outside. His attention was focused entirely on the time on the clock. Dawn hadn't fully broken yet, but based on how long her spiritual form had been away, she should've returned by now. So why couldn't he sense even a trace of spiritual energy from her? Landon's hand was slowly clenching tighter. He didn't hurt Aria, but he wrinkled the bedsheets. His knuckles were distinct, pale, yet forceful. Even the indiscernible inscriptions on his body started to surface restlessly at his neck. That w
