Chapter 369

Penulis: Lightmoon
In the next instant, two sharp slaps echoed through the hall, leaving bright red handprints across Nevaeh's beautiful face and shattering both her smile and her smug expression.

She pressed her hands to her cheek, staring in shock at the woman whose eyes burned with pure rage.

"How dare you hit me?" Nevaeh screamed.

For a split second, her face contorted with fury as she moved to retaliate, but then she noticed something behind Marisol. The vicious expression melted away instantly. Tears spilled from her eyes as she began sobbing dramatically.

"Lucian, she's completely unhinged! She just attacked me out of nowhere..."

Lucian stepped forward and steadied the woman who collapsed into his arms. His brow furrowed as he looked at Marisol. His voice was clipped. "Explain."

A crowd was already gathering around them. Seeing her daughter in tears, Darlene's face twisted with outrage as she swung her hand toward the emotionally numb Marisol.

"How dare you attack my daughter?"

    There was no stopping Alinta.Once it was settled that she would come along, Marisol immediately called Nolan to explain the situation. She was direct about the dangers of going abroad and made it clear she couldn't take Orion with her this time.She asked him to come and pick up the boy. Nolan arrived quickly after driving through the night, but he brought along all of the child's relevant documents. When he saw her, he had only one thing to say."It's fine. You can bring him with you."My mother, the child's grandmother, is already abroad. She's in Istrana, but I've already spoken with her and she'll arrange for people to watch over him."Seeing that Marisol was still about to refuse, Nolan continued, "Besides, even without all this happening, I was planning to send him overseas soon anyway."Marisol stared at him in surprise, but Nolan merely rubbed his nose awkwardly."My sister... Well, Orion's mother is getting out of prison soon. I'm honestly not comfortable with that."

    "Nick, I don't have a choice."Marisol clutched her golden evening bag tightly, turning her face partially toward the window. Half of her face disappeared into shadow, leaving only the faint tremor of her lips visible in the darkness."Nick, I can't bear to think... What if, what if she..." She couldn't bring herself to finish the sentence.But Nick already understood what she was trying to say. What if something really happened to Emilia? What if this might be their last chance to see each other?She couldn't take that risk. Emilia was her only family, the guiding light of her childhood. She'd never allowed herself to imagine a day when that light might go out.Even thinking about it made her feel like she was suffocating.When it came to her family, no matter how dangerous or difficult it might be, she had to be there, even if it meant her own death. Otherwise, she'd regret it for the rest of her life and never find peace.Knowing she wouldn't change her mind, Nick sighed soft

    Marisol's phone buzzed and vibrated like drumbeats against her heart, filling her with an ominous sense of dread. Her hand trembled slightly as she answered the call.The moment the line connected, Silvia's anxious voice came through immediately. "Ms. Marisol, can you get to Castela as soon as possible? Something's happened to Ms. Emilia!"Her head filled with a roaring sound. Fighting off waves of dizziness, she gripped the nearby table for support and forced herself to speak."What... What happened to Great-aunt Emilia? Is she..."There was a pause on the other end."I'm so sorry. I did exactly what you asked and carefully monitored Ms. Emilia's phone messages."I didn't notice anything suspicious, but this afternoon she had lunch with some old friends. On the way back, she looked unwell and made a phone call."I overheard part of it. She seemed to be asking about the connection between that Muller child and the Sorensen family. She collapsed before she could even hang up. She

    After giving the scene a cursory glance, Marisol nodded slightly to Nick and headed in that direction. She had no interest in socializing at this party. Her plan was simple: retrieve the pendant from Nevaeh and leave immediately.As she made her way across the room, Nick exchanged a few polite words with the people surrounding him, then followed at a respectful distance behind her. When Nevaeh spotted her approaching, she smiled and released Lucian's arm, turning to walk away from the group.Marisol frowned and quickened her pace to follow. But as she passed by Lucian, she caught sight of his hand reaching toward her in her peripheral vision. Instinctively, she stepped aside and hurried forward several more steps.At the same moment, Nick, who had been following behind, suddenly picked up his pace and moved closer. His shoulder collided with Lucian's as the other man seemed about to pursue Marisol. Neither man backed down, standing their ground in the aftermath of the contact.The

    Hearing the seriousness in Marisol's voice, Silvia became more alert. "What's happened?""I'm not entirely sure."Since this was mostly speculation on her part, Marisol hesitated before continuing, "I've been having a string of bad luck lately. Just consider this me having terrible nightmares and being overly paranoid."I'll pay you separately for the extra trouble, and I'll explain everything to Great-aunt Emilia beforehand."After a moment of silence, Silvia replied, "Don't worry, Ms. Marisol. I'll keep a close eye on things.""Thank you so much."…On the evening of the dinner party, Marisol selected a sophisticated black evening gown with artistic swirl patterns. She gathered her dark hair into an elegant chignon held with a pearl-tipped pin and applied understated makeup that highlighted her natural grace."Are you sure about this?"
