Chapter 2018 Ready to Depart

Penulis: Night Eleven
Jillian's eyes went wide. She said to Wanda, "So you've been planning this from the start!"

"Exactly." Wanda didn't even try to deny it. "Do you want to know why my skin looks this good?"

She ran her fingers along her own flawless cheek. "The secret to eternal youth was discovered ages ago by the ancients—virgin blood."

"You're out of your mind! That's just superstition, so none of that is real!"

Jillian fought against the straps holding her arms and legs.

"Superstition?" Wanda let out a cold laugh and pointed to the device on the wall. "See that? It's a blood purification system I improved from ancient texts. Regular transfusions only slow aging, but I found something interesting.

"Blood drawn during certain emotional states contains special enzymes. And when I combine it with my formula, the results are incredible."

Jillian started shaking. "Those young women who went missing in Portfall..."

Wanda's face turned cold. "That's right. They were sacrifices, and they shoul

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 2017 Revealing Herself

    Aria's sudden question stopped Wanda in her tracks. She recovered quickly. "I've never heard of that woman before." Then she hurried into the other lounge. Watching Wanda's reaction, Aria could pretty much guess the truth. Wanda definitely knew who Priscilla was, and she might even be Priscilla herself. Sure, nothing about her looked the same, but her reactions had been way too interesting from the moment they'd met. "I'll walk you out." Felicity came over. "Ms. Pedgett's pretty busy today. Hope you understand." Aria got up. "No worries. I get it." After Felicity walked her to the door, she headed back to the break room. "Ms. Pedgett, do you know her?" Felicity couldn't help asking. Wanda had never acted like this around anyone. Wanda gave her a look. "Mind your own business. Just do your job." Felicity nodded and left. Once the door shut, Wanda's expression turned dark. Indeed, she was Priscilla Draycott. She had fled from Ludwiten to Portfall just to get away from

    Tegan said to Landon, "Yeah, I've gone to the beauty salon before to get Ms. Cragmire back." Landon stayed quiet and looked at Aria. Taking the hint, Aria turned to Tegan. "Could you go get Jillian? Tell her there's something at the restaurant that needs her attention." Tegan nodded. "I'll go get her." He headed toward the salon entrance. Landon looked at Aria. "We're in Portfall, so there are things we shouldn't get directly involved in. Besides, we don't even know if the salon owner is really Priscilla." Aria nodded slightly. "I got a bit worked up just now. Good thing you stopped me."Tegan had already arrived at the salon's entrance. When he knocked, Felicity came to the door. "What is it?" "I'm looking for Ms. Cragmire." Tegan stood at the door. "Something came up, and we need her back in the restaurant." Felicity smiled. "She's in the middle of a treatment. It'll take another half hour, and we can't interrupt her. If it's urgent, you should handle it yourself. I'll

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 2015 Playing the Part

    Aria thought that the beauty salon was strange, and it wasn't just because of what Jillian had described. That little red dot on her wrist looked like some kind of marking. "I'm really tempted to have a treatment there now." Aria smiled brightly. "Could you maybe introduce me? I'll pay whatever it takes to become a member." Jillian hesitated. "I can't make that decision myself, but I can go ask for you. But it's hard to say whether the salon owner will do me this favor." Aria nodded. "That's fine. I appreciate you even trying. It'll all be up to my fate whether I get in or not." Jillian smiled. "Alright, go finish your meal before it gets cold. I'll head over to the salon right now and ask for you." "Thank you so much," Aria said, turning on the charm. "You're so beautiful and kind-hearted. I could learn a lot from you." "Oh, you're too sweet." Jillian couldn't contain her smile anymore. "Now I'll feel terrible if I don't get you that membership." Aria smiled back. "Thank

    Aria looked over at Sam. "It's fine. Let them run. It's actually a good thing that one of them got away to report back. Now Sylas will know someone's looking for him." Sam nodded. He'd just dropped two people on the ground when he saw black blood flowing from their mouths too. They had already stopped breathing. "Wait..." Sam scratched his head. "I didn't hit them that hard. How are they dead?" Aria studied them. "They had poison hidden in their teeth. When they knew they couldn't win, they bit down, and the poison killed them." Landon walked over. "Some people from this town died from losing their life essence, but others were fine. We still need to figure that out." "They probably need something as a medium to do this... And it's usually some kind of arcane implement." Aria looked at the black beads on the dead man's wrist. "Maybe it's these beads, combined with drugs to control the victims." Aria walked straight into the hospital. She figured that the secrets had to be h

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 2013 Destruction

    Brandon froze. "That's impossible. I've been full of energy these past few days, and..." Before he could finish, his body started to wither. Within seconds, his hair turned snow-white. With wrinkles carving across his pale face, his lips turned to a frightening shade of purple. His breathing became so weak it was barely noticeable. Standing beside Aria and the others, Wilda watched in horror as the scene unfolded. "What's happening?" Aria's eyes darkened. "Without life essence, people would age instantly." "What about the others..." Wilda hadn't recovered from the shock. "Quite a few people took the pills that the old man gave them." Aria looked at Wilda. "Did you take any?" Wilda shook her head frantically. "No! I put the pills in a box and saved them." Since Brandon had become an old man, his voice came out totally different. "What's happening to me?" Aria stepped forward and skillfully checked his pulse. "Stay still." Aria kept her voice low as she quickly pulled
