Chapter 909 The Families Gather

Penulis: Night Eleven
Sharon seemed to suddenly snap back to reality.

"Lucian, what do you mean? What do you mean 'they said she killed herself'? Didn't your class valedictorian's jump because of academic pressure?"

Lucian stayed silent, but his pale face revealed everything. Sharon stepped forward and gripped his hand. Her voice was shaking. "What's really going on? You know something, don't you? Lucian, don't scare me."

Lucian looked up with red eyes. "Mom, should I go to the police? I keep dreaming about Shirley. She asks why I won't speak up about what I saw. But what good would it do? The online posts will disappear quickly. Mom, what should I do?"

He had considered going to the police, but he was terrified of retaliation from that group. Though he had tried submitting anonymous tips, the investigators visiting their school did not care about his evidence. One of the investigators was even Tiffany's uncle!

The Karken family was too powerful. He would be finished too if he crossed them. That d

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 1884 Deputy Mayor

    Sawyer's security team was ready for action. Sawyer's frown deepened. "Does that mean the deputy mayor backs you?" Damian's face twitched at those words. "It seems my cousin Wyatt spilled everything to you. Look, I didn't want things to get physical, but you backed me into a corner. You left me no choice." Right then, Damian's phone buzzed. He checked the screen, then backed away to take the call somewhere private. The voice on the other end spoke. "Damian, what the hell are you doing?" Damian's jaw clenched tight. "I can't let this slide. That old fool stole over two billion from me. He's going to pay." The voice turned serious. "If you start something here, it won't just spiral out of control; you'll end up in a cell." Damian sneered and said, "But you'll help me then, won't you?" A heavy sigh came through the speaker. "Damian, push this too far, and even I can't save you. You and Wyatt have held that old mess over my head long enough. Keep pushing and we'll all go down

    Landon froze for a moment. Then, he curled his lips into a smile and spoke softly near her ear. "Nothing gets past you, does it? Yes, it's related to Sam. Chaos has existed since the creation of heaven and earth. "Unlike other primordial beasts, he's absorbed too much of the world's corrupted energy. People say that when he awakens, the world falls into chaos. But that's not true. "He usually only awakens when there's uncontainable vengefulness somewhere. Wherever he appears marks the source of that darkness." "So..." Aria was too smart not to connect the dots. Landon had only given her half the picture, but she'd already figured out the rest. "Portfall isn't just facing riots. Sam might also return to his original form, including his monstrous powers that could end the world." Landon looked at her. "We're not there yet." "You're here to stop him." Aria understood why heaven existed better than anyone. "How do you plan to stop him?" Landon remained silent. Aria grabbed his

    The moment Sam finished speaking, everyone on Sawyer's tech team lost it. "You think you can just waltz in here? Who do you think you are?" "You little brat, you're barely old enough to shave. What are you trying to prove?" They all piled on at once. The verbal assault nearly drowned Sam in spit. Sawyer glanced at Sam, then addressed his team. "That's enough. Everyone out." One of the senior members looked upset. "Mr. Pratt, we've been with you for years. You've seen our skills firsthand, which is why we're still here. Are you actually going to let some kid take over after he said all that nonsense? That doesn't make sense." "Exactly!" Sawyer slammed his hand on the desk. "Enough! I know what you're capable of. But as chairman, I'm ordering you to step out and take a break. Any problems with that?" He swept his gaze across the room. But someone persisted stubbornly. "Mr. Pratt, I don't buy it. He hasn't shown us anything, yet you trust him completely. What if he's a mole fr

    Aria looked at the Goldenflow Carp in her hand. Before they'd left, Cassian had found her, his face dead serious as he explained. "Mr. Carver Senior sent some reliable people to develop business in Portfall way back when. We've lost contact with most of them now—some probably passed away. "But if any are still alive and they see that Goldenflow Carp, they'll know that his descendant has arrived. That should make your path through Portfall smoother. "Portfall's different from anywhere else in Farshya. Even though it's close by, the historical issues between Portfall and the rest of Farshya are real. You can't deny that." Barron was a patriot with such a great vision and strategic mind. Men like that were rare in this world. Even Aria hadn't known he had sent Chamber members to Portfall all those years ago. Anyone Barron had chosen for that mission would've had unshakeable loyalty above all else. Skills and abilities came second to that. …Meanwhile, Sam was still in Portfal

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 1880 Female Entrepreneur

    If these Chamber members could get another chance, they'd stand up to foreign investors even if it meant risking everything they had. The feeling of being looked down on had been way too painful. A lot of their old friends had left the business because of that. Foreign investors had gotten rich early and had better technology, so who knew how much money they'd stolen from Farshyan businessmen? Back then, locals did the hardest work for the lowest pay. Just thinking about those times made every executive in the room feel bitter, no matter which side they were on. The meeting room fell silent. Aria spoke up again. "Those foreign investors are back. I'm sure I don't need to tell anyone about what happened with the port authority a few days ago. Someone's been liquidating their domestic holdings en masse. They're clearly preparing for something. "Weak countries have no diplomatic power, and that rule applies everywhere. Over the past decade, foreign investors have witnessed the sig

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 1879 United We Stand

    Right now, Phoebe's urge to kill Wyatt was gone. All she could think about was why her husband would betray her. They'd loved each other so much. She had been by his side back when they had nothing, and she never once complained. All these years together, they'd never had time for a wedding, but she'd still chosen to trust him and bear his child. She never imagined that he'd have her killed for power and money in the end. Thinking about this, tears rolled down her cheeks. This was the first time she'd cried since becoming an adult. Even after dying, she'd still been worried about whether her husband would struggle. Sam spoke up and interrupted her train of thought. "Come back for now. If you absorb too much sunlight, you'll disappear." Phoebe nodded silently and flashed back into the emerald pendant. Only Sam and Wyatt were left at the scene. When Wyatt saw her disappear, he thought the threat was gone. He quickly got up and tried to run away. As long as he could get away now
