Chapter 379 Aria Rebukes Owen

Penulis: Night Eleven
Aria stood under the lights, her nonchalant expression revealing neither anger nor happiness. However, her curved lips hinted at a trace of mischief.

For some reason, Owen found her face oddly familiar. This was especially true of her dark eyes, which seemed to pierce right through him, causing a disquieting sensation.

He wondered if Aria knew him.

"You…" Owen, intending to deal with the situation, softened his demeanor.

When Dorothy saw that, she shouted, "Mr. Carver, you must stand up for Ms. Carver! This young woman is the doctor from Janovin! She's the one who has been slandering Ms. Carver's reputation!"

Owen immediately stopped in his tracks.

Mindy's face was filled with tears as she whispered, "Dorothy, stop it. I'm fine."

"Ms. Carver, I can't stay silent! I've watched you grow up. Others might not care about you, but I do."

Pounding her chest, Dorothy continued, "It's all because I'm not from an influential family. Otherwise, I can stand up for you like Mr. Wagner.

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 1908 A Test of True Power

    After hearing Aria's words, Niall waved at someone behind, who pushed a wheelchair through the ballroom door. The person sitting in it looked lifeless, as if he were just an empty shell that was barely hanging on. Once the wheelchair reached Aria, Niall spoke. "There's a simple way for you to prove your actual skills. This man in the wheelchair is my brother, Jeremiah. Years ago, he disappeared somewhere. And ever since he came back home, he's been completely different. "Not only did his health get worse, but he aged rapidly too. He appears to be in his 60s or 70s now, but he's actually only 40 years old. Medical experts can't find anything wrong with him. "I only came to this banquet because I heard arcane priests would be attending. That's why I had someone wheel Jeremiah over. I wanted the priests to examine him. "Since Mr. Keating thinks you're so capable, go ahead and heal him then. If you can cure him, our family will forever treat you as an honored guest. We'll even foll

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 1907 The Banquet Begins

    Meanwhile, Aria and Landon were at Grandview Regency Hotel. The crystal chandeliers lit up the whole ballroom like it was daytime. Golden light danced on the champagne glasses, making ornate shadows.The guest list was small but packed with those from high society, and there were some arcane practitioners too. That made sense. After all, the wealthy individuals in Portfall believed in practices such as the esoteric arts and altering their fate. The seating was divided into two parts. One section had tables for the regular guests, while the other section was set aside for the arcane practitioners. Aria and Landon had picked a corner spot on purpose to dodge the social scene. If people figured out who either of them was, it would cause a real fuss. But even trying to lay low, something about them just stood out. Guests walking by couldn't help but sneak a look. "There's something special about those two young people. I wonder which family they're from." "When I walked by them, i

    Within a minute, the arcane practitioners were all barely hanging on as they lay sprawled on the ground. They looked at Sam as if they were staring at a demon. Sam walked toward them slowly, his voice haunting their ears like some demon's whisper. Lorcan pushed down his fear and said, "If you kill us, our mentor will make you pay!" Sam stopped walking. "Hmm, your mentor? Tell him to come over then." Lorcan blinked in confusion. "Huh? Are you serious? Do you actually want that?" Lorcan was actually terrified of Sam. What if Sam was setting them up? What if he wanted them to call for help just so he could murder them all before their mentor showed up? Sam nodded. "How's your mentor going to save you if he doesn't show up? Call him already. I've got a party to get to." He dusted off his clothes while talking. He still had to attend that banquet, after all. Hearing this, Lorcan kept his eyes glued on Sam while digging through his bag for a rescue flare. This was the Dawnscale

    The speaker was none other than Finnigan, who'd been watching Leopold all along. He approached Leopold's hiding spot one step at a time, shattering what remained of Leopold's composure. Leopold's voice came out low and desperate. "Mr. Ordman, surely we can work something out here. Let me go just this once, and I'll give you whatever you want. Money, women, or anything you desire." Finnigan's face twisted with disgust. "I'm not interested in that sort of stuff." He pulled out his phone and dialed the governor's number, then handed it to Leopold. "The governor said to call him the moment I caught you. He wants a word." Leopold took the phone with trembling hands and pressed it to his ear. Ulric's voice exploded with fury. "Leopold Donnam! You've served under me for all these years. When you competed for the deputy director position, I suspected you'd played dirty, but I let it slide. "I never thought you'd cross more lines. Did you think no one could touch you? Do I mean nothin

    Audrey and Sawyer exchanged a few more pleasantries before hanging up. After all, there was still business to finish. Sawyer turned to the group. "Let's go. First, we'll stop by Finnigan's place, then I'll take you all to the banquet tonight." Sam blinked a few times. "A banquet? Does that mean food? Will there be lots of people?" Sawyer chuckled. "It's a banquet, so there'll be plenty of people." Sam rubbed his nose. "I don't like crowded places. Everyone feels so fake. They all wear smiles, but that's just how they appeared on the surface." Sawyer patted Sam on the shoulder. "Don't worry about it. Just stick with me, and all you need to worry about is eating and drinking." Sam took a deep breath. "Alright then." Rafferty had already brought the car around. Everyone climbed in, and they headed toward the Public Integrity Office. Before long, the car pulled up to the entrance. Finnigan was already waiting for them outside. Sawyer got out first and walked over to him. "F

    Sawyer was only worried about Piper. As long as she made it back safely, he knew he'd be fine. Someone had definitely ratted him out, but they didn't have enough real evidence to nail him. The only way they could bring him down was if they somehow forced a confession out of him. Piper studied his face, and worry filled her eyes. "Dad, did they do anything to you?" Sawyer shook his head. "No, they haven't touched me. They have to wait for their investigation to wrap up." She dropped her voice to a whisper. "Mr. Ordman came too. He can get you out of here." Sawyer's gaze sharpened the moment he heard those words. "Finnigan holds a special position in the government. If he pulls strings to save me, it'll spark even more controversy. He might even lose his own standing." Piper looked at Sawyer. "Then what are we supposed to do now?" Sawyer tapped his fingers. "We wait." "Wait?" Piper couldn't understand his logic. "How can we just wait when things are this bad?" Something
