The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 438 Lily Flees the Scene
Lily had always portrayed herself as an orphan in the circle. It was her way to flaunt her talent. Even when Marshall, who she introduced as a distant relative, came to find her, she maintained this façade. Marshall even managed to secure a reputable job by using Lily's name.Lily cultivated an image of a humble and polite woman, evoking pity from those around her. After all, surviving in Janovin as a young woman wasn't easy. This act convinced some of the older scholars to consider helping her.However, the truth was far from what anyone suspected. The Layne family was secretly backing her. Now, fearing entanglement with the Gunther family, the Laynes discarded Lily like she was trash. The scholars exchanged silent glances and began to distance themselves from Lily. Salome was still under investigation in Southbury. Galen, once influential in Janovin, couldn't even leave his courtyard now. The storm was far from over. The authorities were still investigating the case.A corrupt

Xavier elaborated, "Aria needs to become a peacemaker to convince the Layne family to let her off the hook. Eventually, the Carver family will tire of being indebted to her. When that happens, she'll be in a difficult position!"The scholars found merit in Xavier's argument.A scholar remarked, "Well, we need to regard her highly now. After all, she should be quite skillful to be able to save Mr. Carver Senior."Xavier disagreed. "It's just luck."Compared to Aria, Xavier was more concerned about getting his hand on the "Needle's Codex" in Lily's possession.Acquiring the book would solidify his position. After all, he witnessed Lily's inexperience during the needle insertion.However, the chances of Xavier acquiring the "Needle's Codex" seemed slim. Perhaps the Layne family had already secured it.Lost in thought, Xavier furrowed his brows.…Meanwhile, Lily's face was ashen as she hurried back to the university.She had tried calling Dominic multiple times, but he didn't pi

"Even so, it's best to avoid mentioning her and that man," Lily replied. "Public opinion is what truly matters.""I know that. I'm just saying this because it's a phone call between us," Evelyn sighed. "Her company issued a PR statement to warn people not to defame her, but the rumors online are relentless."Some media outlets are still waiting outside the hospital, eager to know if she was pregnant since she was hospitalized for so long. Even worse is that my friend's image has always been innocent and pure. She needs something to clear her tarnished name," Evelyn said, standing up straight.Evelyn quickly added, "If you can solve this, I'll reward you handsomely!"Lily, though moved, remained modest. "There's no need for a reward. I'm just helping you because of how stressed you are over it lately.""Lily, you're truly my best friend." Evelyn blew kisses at the screen. "Honestly, do you have a gift for fortune-telling? Everything you predict always comes true."Lily replied cry
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 441 Samuel Deals With Aria
Samuel's anger flared upon hearing it was another young woman. "Another one?"Fury flared in Samuel's eyes as he gripped his cane. "I don't care how you do it, Dominic, but get someone working on the birth certificates. We need those doctors too. They're the ones most familiar with hospital procedures."Samuel glanced at Dominic. "The customer's been asking for new stock recently. Hurry up and handle it. Your brother will be back soon, and we can't be caught unprepared."Dominic nodded. "Okay. Dad, how is Moses doing?""No change," Samuel replied, his eyes glinting dangerously. "I have someone investigating this young lady with Will. When we find her, she'll pay!"Dominic was puzzled. "Didn't they say she was Will's niece?""We need to clarify that with the Wagners," Samuel said through gritted teeth. "Philip's vanished, and Kenny insists he heard she was Will's niece. But Will was raised in Janovin. How could he have relatives in Southbury?"Samuel tossed an envelope to Dominic
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 442 Aria Will Pay For It
Confidence surged through Samuel. He was certain the Carvers wouldn't reject him.Dominic immediately handed Samuel his phone.Aria needed to be eliminated as soon as possible. It was the right move for them to test Warren's intentions. Even if Warren supported Aria now, he might not do so in the future.However, as Samuel held the phone, a change of heart struck him. "Wait. We need to confirm if that brat can truly predict the future or if she is just bluffing. Giving the Carvers such an edge for free is unwise."Dominic grasped Samuel's intent. "You're saying that we shouldn't discuss the car accident?"Samuel leaned on his cane and said, "Nobody knew about the details of the car accident except for the Wagner and Furler families. This is especially the case with the young woman's prediction about Philip, which only he alone knew. Even Kenny believed that she was just spouting nonsense.""But what if she's not?" Samuel's eyes gleamed with excitement. "If we can exploit her accu
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 443 Preparing a Reunion Feast
It was evening, and the Layne family had yet to reach out to the Carver family.Warren was starting to get angry. "Perhaps I've been too kind these few years. That's why the Laynes are disregarding me.""Perhaps the Laynes aren't aware of Ms. Carver's true identity. But why would they be supporting an unknown doctor?" Keith questioned.Warren fell into deep thought after hearing Keith's words.Just then, Aria entered the room after seeing Abraham off. "Grandpa, what are you discussing with Mr. Watson?""The Laynes' recent actions are unsettling," Warren looked at Aria. "Rainbow, you're new to Janovin, so you might not be familiar with them."I know Samuel well. He appears scholarly, but he's quite cunning and has connections in high places. I've always maintained a distance from him—something about him makes me uneasy."Warren leaned on his cane, a decision forming. "It's time for your brothers to return. We should also formally announce your identity to the other families.""Y
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 444 Aria Starts Planning
Warren paused after hearing that. Then, he asked rather seriously, "Rainbow, tell me honestly. Did you only learn a bit about fortune-telling?""Not really." Aria was hesitant to answer. "Well, I'm an idealist, so I wasn't the most attentive student when Mr. Revelare taught me. But I'm definitely a step above the frauds in the market."Warren, a man of logic, had never entertained the idea of fortune-telling. He countered with a name. "But how do you stack up against Mr. Windsor from Panne Street?""I'm better than him." Aria peeled an orange and gave half of it to Warren. "I'm quite familiar with some of his techniques. Don't go to him, Grandpa. If you really want to get your fortune told, the man who visited our hotel is good."A flicker of surprise crossed Warren's face. "Mr. Homer Bond?"Aria nodded, sipping her coffee with an elegance that captivated him. "The very same. He's incredibly knowledgeable. If you'd like, I could arrange a visit."Warren chuckled. "Rainbow, you ne
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 445 Mysterious Beggar
Aria couldn't shake a feeling of unease. Though the crisis seemed over with Dorothy under investigation by the Special Missions Unit, something felt amiss.Warren's safety remained a top priority. With a mole lurking internally, vigilance was key.Zayn's head snapped up at her words. "Miss, you mean…""I haven't said a word," Aria replied, her gaze flickering to the black-clad bodyguards nearby. "You've been with Grandpa the longest. Honestly, I investigated you before."Zayn stiffened.Aria's voice dropped to a low murmur. "News always leaks whenever Grandpa wants to see me. There's a disloyal element in his inner circle.""Yes. Mr. Carver Senior is also looking into this," Zayn replied.Aria's eyes darkened. "Grandpa's sentimentality might blind him to those who've endured hardships with him. Zayn, your mission is simple. Protect Grandpa."A shiver ran down Zayn's spine. He understood the weight of her words. "Don't worry, miss. I won't fail.""You're the only one privy to t

Landon's sudden appearance wasn't just a coincidence. With Aria's intelligence, she would figure something out soon—he knew that. He hadn't planned on revealing himself like this. But something that belonged to him was here, and the demonic energy in this place… Aria couldn't face it alone.She studied him from head to toe, her hand still in his. His grip was firm, protective."There's a lot of mist ahead," he said quietly. "We'll need to tread carefully."Aria tilted her head. "You speak like you know this place well.""I do," Landon replied with a calm honesty. "I was deathly ill once. My soul wandered into a place just like this. Homer pulled me back."His voice made it sound like a distant memory, and Aria gave a soft laugh, tightening her hold on his hand. "You really are full of surprises. I guess it's true—handsome men are the most dangerous."But Aria's thoughts were racing. Why had he come after her like this, knowing it would reveal parts of himself he'd tried to keep h
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1628 The Labyrinth
Landon was still handling the stragglers behind Aria when he paused, his gaze flicking upward. Cameras were mounted in every corner—too many eyes. Vanishing without a trace wasn't an option.He glanced in Aria's direction, then lowered his head. His lips moved in a whisper, but the sounds were incomprehensible—something rhythmic, otherworldly. It was less like a speech and more like a chant—an exorcism.Meanwhile, Dave descended into the underground, calm and unrushed. That place reeked of foul energy, dense and suffocating. His master had cast a spell over it—one designed to kill anyone who dared to enter, no matter their strength. Dave wasn't afraid. He had more pressing priorities—destroying documents, erasing traces, minimizing damage.His bodyguard stayed close, watching for anyone who might try to stop them.Aria, moving swiftly, reached the lower floor—only to halt. Mist curled along the ground, thickening with every step. The air turned icy. And the corridor behind her…
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1627 Cutting Their Losses
"Why would there be people outside?" asked Dave. He had been disguising himself as a doctor for years, and that was the first time he looked so anxious. After all, if someone did approach their building, the villagers would have informed them about it. However, they received no news this time.Dave wondered what was going on."Dr. Dave, what should we do now? I think we're surrounded!"He was still in his coat as he slightly clenched his fists. "Let's move out. Bring the girls in the basement with us.""T-They're not in the basement."When Dave heard that, he looked furious. "What do you mean they're not in the basement?""Someone took them away, and I'm guessing it was her fault!" The bodyguard pointed at Aria, who was standing on the highest point, showing off her skills. With swift, lethal kicks and a taser turned weapon, no one dared get close.Whoever touched Aria would die, and no one dared to approach her at all.As for Landon, he still had his mask on as he stood behind
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1626 The Special Missions Unit Are Here
Chaos erupted at the auction. For all their pride and arrogance, the wealthy clients' expressions had twisted into pure panic the moment something went wrong.So, their first reaction was to seek a staff member."The power's unstable!" Dave spoke into the microphone, trying to project calm. "Everyone, stay calm. There's scheduled maintenance in town—it's just affecting the electricity. Nothing's wrong."He genuinely believed that. It was what he'd been told.But Aria knew better. The blackout wasn't random. It was a signal. Sam had tracked down the source of the call. With the exits sealed off, Aria had everything she needed to act.A faint smirk curled on her lips. Without hesitation, she grabbed Landon and swiftly took Aliya hostage. Her movements were sharp, practiced, so fast that no one around her even had time to react.Then came the needles.Aria flicked her wrist, sending a series of acupuncture needles flying. The rich guests closest to her froze in place, locked in stu
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1625 Winning the Auction
Tony's accusation stirred a ripple through the room, and it didn't escape Dave's attention. With a subtle flick of his wrist, he signaled to someone nearby.Aria caught the movement. Her fingers tensed, ready to slip free of the rope she had already loosened. But before she could act, she heard a smooth, composed voice glide through the air."I need her to boost my luck," the man said coolly. "I've done my research. She's the ideal bride for someone like me."Dave stopped in his tracks, and it seemed like he was telling someone else to verify what Landon had said."Sir, it checks out," one of the staff murmured after a brief consultation. "Mr. Crow's fate is complicated. The master said only a spiritual match could extend his life. Otherwise, he won't make it past his next birthday."Dave let out a low chuckle, visibly relaxing. "Well then, Mr. Crow, it seems you've come to the right place. Please—carry on, everyone."Aria listened in stunned silence. Landon hadn't lied. His life
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1624 Landon Takes Action
Aria couldn't tear her eyes away from Dave.He was still quietly speaking to the man on the screen, their exchange shrouded in secrecy. No one nearby could hear what they were saying—but Aria could guess. It had to be a deal of some sort, something about her. Everything about Dave's posture, the glint in his eyes, told her this wasn't just business. It was personal.She glanced up at the clock again, nerves coiling in her chest. Something was wrong. Sam was taking longer than usual. That wasn't like him.The auction was nearing its close. They couldn't miss the chance to strike. Sasha, glowing with excitement, clapped her hands and declared, "Six million! It looks like no one else is bidding—congratulations to our newest member, Mr. Tiger—""Ten million dollars."The voice sliced clean through the noise, calm, clear, and cold.Everyone turned toward it.A man stood at the edge of the crowd, dressed in a sleek tuxedo dusted with black feathers, his mask intricate and dark.T
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1623 Waiting for Sam
Aria had once told Sam to avoid chaos if he could—but she'd also said that when desperation knocked, rules could bend.Now was one of those moments.Sam hesitated only briefly before diving in.He had to know who was behind this. Who kept targeting Aria? Who was pulling the strings in the dark? And once Sam decided on something, there was no turning back.Without Aria by his side, he breached the system, knowing full well the other side had already alerted the police.The firewall he faced wasn't just tough—it was nearly impenetrable. It filtered everything, controlling access with surgical precision. But Sam wasn't interested in the broader network. He narrowed his focus and cut straight to the source, filtering out all the noise to lock onto the actual IP.The auction raged on aboveground. The man behind the screen, confident in his usual routine, remained calm and unaware that the mask he'd worn for years was finally slipping. He'd always stayed out of sight, appearing only
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1622 The Unusual Location of the Target
While Aria discreetly signaled to move, the auction hall was buzzing with excitement. Laughter echoed, wine glasses clinked, and the room pulsed with greed.Sasha's voice came through the mic, smooth and cheerful. "While everyone's enjoying themselves, let's welcome our latest arrival of the evening."She glanced at the man beside her—her bodyguard—who immediately stiffened under her gaze.To the crowd, it looked like he was escorting Aria to the stage under control. In truth, Aria's hand was already pressed lightly against his chest, right over a poisoned pressure point. He knew better than to resist—he'd seen what she was capable of.And she'd made her warning crystal clear—if she was exposed or captured, he wouldn't live to see morning.The guests didn't notice a thing. All eyes were on Aria, their expressions hungry. They saw value in her—fresh, young, healthy. To them, she wasn't a person. She was premium merchandise.She was brought to stand beside a young woman who had alr

Eamon and Waymond had just been thrown out of the Chamber of Commerce. Waymond's face was flushed with fury, his eyes red. "Eamon, why didn't you let me speak earlier? Mr. Lincoln was being unreasonable!"Eamon, ever perceptive, shook his head. "Mr. Lincoln's been bribed. He was never going to take our side."Wise and strategic, Eamon had always been top of his class—but now, he was even sharper when it came to reading a room."I'm guessing Aria found something during her investigation that made them nervous," he continued. "Durand couldn't have controlled Lincoln on his own. There's more to it."Waymond frowned, still struggling to piece things together. "But who could bribe Mr. Lincoln? Not even the mayor has that kind of sway. He's—""What if it's someone from the state?" Eamon cut in, eyes flicking back toward the building. "We need to tell Dad. There's no point in staying here, but there is someone we can talk to.""Who?" Waymond asked quickly. "Lucas Murray—the new secr
