Chapter 30 No Ordinary Person

Author: Night Eleven
"That man?" Aria repeated, focusing on the way Frank addressed Landon. "He's not a member of the Carver family?"

Frank dared not expose Landon's identity, of course, so he said stiffly, "You could say he's a distant relative. His last name isn't Carver."

Chewing on a piece of candy, Aria said with a faint smile, "I thought you'd insist that the old patient wasn't named Carver, Mr. Levin."

"That's because I now consider you a friend," Frank said glibly. "Furthermore, you seem like a principled and ethical person, so I have nothing to worry about. You're right. My boss is indeed one of the Carvers of Janovin, the wealthiest family there."

"Uh-huh," Aria said, still sucking on her candy.

Realizing that she didn't seem to care at all, Frank chuckled and remarked, "I should've known to expect as much from you. You're able to take this news without making a big deal out of it. I was worried about nothing earlier. Do accept my apologies."

"It's only right for you to protect your employe

    "Thank you, Ms. Carver." Zuko stood there, completely at a loss. Aria said slowly, "I won't make a move on Yost Group for now. But someone like you should have access to Sonia, right?"Zuko paused for a moment before replying, "I saw her fairly often six months ago, but I rarely see her now. The company is fully managed by Mr. Klein now, so he's the one I usually work with."Aria smiled. "Mr. Klein? So was he the one who ordered you all to redevelop Clearwater Alley?"Zuko neither nodded nor shook his head. "I'm not too sure. I only know the order came from the higher-ups, and we were told to carry it out."Aria nodded. "Got it."Zuko's face was still pale. "Ms. Carver, I'll take my leave now."Aria spoke. "Okay. Be more careful with your investments going forward. If something like this happens again under my watch, I can't guarantee what will happen to Yost Group."Zuko nodded. "Don't worry. I'll be more vigilant and make sure nothing like this happens again."Aria waved he

    A sleek black Maybach rolling up interrupted their conversation. Its luxurious outlook and the elite Janovin plate made it clear the car didn't belong in this small town. The car rolled to a stop at the side of the junction. When the driver opened the door, a man dressed in a tailored suit stepped out. He looked to be about 30 years old with slicked-back hair. His gold-rimmed glasses highlighted the hard gleam in his eyes, sharpened by years of power and influence.His gaze swept over the groaning men on the ground and the slumped Braxton before finally landing on Aria.Aria was wearing simple streetwear, yet her presence was anything but ordinary. Something in her unreadable eyes carried a quiet pressure that unsettled him.Still, he reminded himself that he was in Southbury, not Janovin. This tiny town wasn't supposed to have anyone capable of shaking things up.The man was none other than an important higher-up sent from Yost Group in Janovin—Zuko Wadsworth. Naturally, he wa

    Although Aria's voice wasn't loud, it carried a significant weight. Braxton paused before turning to look at her with a gloomy expression. "What else do you want? I already paid up, and I'm even letting it slide that you somehow made my whole body go weak just now. Don't go too far. I'm the CEO of Paragon Group. You can't afford to waste my time."With a snicker, Aria glanced at the cash on the floor. "Money? Do you think that a few stacks of bills can be exchanged for his life?"She paused before continuing, "Besides, what you did just now wasn't an accident. It was an assault. Do you really believe that having Paragon Group behind you puts you above the law?"Braxton snorted arrogantly. "Listen, sweetheart. In Southbury, nothing and no one is beyond my reach. So, do yourselves a favor and step aside. Otherwise, you won't even get the chance to leave once my men arrive."After that, he turned to Landon and threatened, "Did I stutter earlier? I told you to get lost. Apologize now

    Warren did not insist. "Okay, then. You and Landon should head out now."Landon and Aria rose from their seats at the same time. After saying their goodbyes, they walked toward the car that was waiting for them.Warren watched them leave. "Don is a great kid—he's so much better than Titus. Makes you wonder how a guy like Titus could raise a grandson like Don."Standing next to Warren, Fiona had a faint smile on her face. "Dad, Landon and Aria are a match made in heaven. They're both good-looking and talented."Warren grinned. "Yeah. All I need is for Don to appreciate Aria and look after her."Fiona gave him a light pat on the back. "You promised her you'd live long. You can't walk back on that."…Landon and Aria sat in the back of the vehicle that slowly drove toward Clearwater Alley.Staring at her, he slid a hand through her hair. "Looks like I need to put in more effort to win over your brothers."That put a smile on her face. "Indeed. The six of them couldn't be more dif

    The Krowonian doll had planned to possess Hedeon so it could get closer to Landon and get rid of him. Upon second thought, it thought it'd be better to feed on a few more souls, as its power had not been fully restored.Hedeon nodded heavily. "Sure, Almighty One! I'll get some young women for you. I will do what you ask.""Leave.""Yes, Almighty One." Hedeon bowed before leaving.He did not want to stay any longer, as he didn't want to end up like Katarina, whose body was still on the floor.He gently closed the basement door behind him, careful not to disturb the doll.The weight lifted off his shoulders when he took a whiff of the fresh air. All his worries seemed to vanish. He straightened his clothes and made his way to his room.…The next morning, the gentle rays of sunlight streamed into Aria's bedroom at the Carver residence through the mesh curtains, forming a pool of white on the floorboards. The mix of smells—a light floral scent and the clean, crisp scent of sun-bak

    Hedeon had just stepped onto the stairs, still riding the dizzying rush of what had happened moments earlier, when a clear, slightly teasing voice rang out behind him. It was the young woman he kept hidden from Sonia.His entire body went rigid, as if dunked in ice. The pride on his face froze and shattered into panic. He had forgotten she was here. This villa was the secret place he'd rented for her, and right across the street was the home he shared with Sonia.Instinctively, he tried to move faster, desperate to seal the basement before she saw anything. But before he could take another step, the young woman appeared at the start of the stairwell, sleepy-eyed and wearing a thin camisole nightdress.Her gaze drifted past him toward the basement entrance and the strange light spilling from below."Hedeon? What are you doing down there?" She rubbed her eyes and took two curious steps forward. In the three months she had lived here, she had never known there was a basement, nor ha
