Chapter 181 The Truth Behind Jessica Warren’s Adoption

Jessica didn't care that she was drenched. She dragged herself along and stumbled to the front of Elon. "Trust me, Dad. I didn't push her!" Elon tugged away the leg of his pants that she was holding onto.He said coldly, "The last time when men were hired to gang rape and take photos of Fiona, that was you too, wasn't it? Jessica froze when she heard that. She lifted her head slowly to look at Elon. His expression was especially frigid, so much so that it made her hair stand. It all became clear to Elon when he saw how she looked. The truth was, Elon already had his hands on the evidence. Those people had no idea that Jessica was their client. All they knew was that there was someone who paid them for the gang rape of Fiona. They were to capture the videos and photos to be posted onto the internet so that Fiona couldn't get back up on her feet. Elon wasn't that naive. With such obvious clues, he followed the trail to investigate. In the end, the trail led to Jessica. Eve

Chapter 182 The Ending for Jessica Warren

Rachel laughed coldly, saying, "After you fell in, you remembered that there was the electric switch in the water. You thought that you had been electrocuted, which was why you were struggling for your life, wasn't it?" Jessica argued back, "That wasn't it. I fell into the water suddenly, so naturally, I struggled! Also, I wasn't going to push Fiona. I just wanted to scare her from behind as a joke.""The proof is all written on your face, yet you're still denying it? You bought this electric switch off the internet a week ago. What's your explanation for this then?"Zayn dug up the evidence of her online shopping. He also presented her chat transcript with the seller, where she inquired about the electrical power of the switch.He also had her Google search record from when she searched for the voltage needed to electrocute someone. The blood drained from Jessica's face. There was too much evidence for her to deny. "It was just out of curiosity. I never wanted to harm Fiona! Yo

Chapter 183 Lola the Peacock

What other people thought didn't matter. Larissa only needed Charles and Ambrose to be on her side. When Charles saw that Larissa looked more at ease, he continued hastily, "She should take a look at herself in the mirror to reflect on her actions."Hmph! She's not as beautiful as you, her skin's not as smooth as yours, and her clinical skills are certainly not as good as yours. She falls short in every aspect in comparison to you. I'm not sure where she gets her confidence from!""And, she wants to gift antiques to me? Ha-ha, does she think that I can't afford to buy antiques that I like? Would I need her to give them to me? Don't even talk about her gifting a few worthless antiques. I would not bat an eyelid even if she were to present gold and silver stashes to me. She's just a peacock trying to flatter herself!""Put your mind at rest, Larissa. We Hamiltons are best at keeping our promises. Since you and Ambrose are already engaged, that decision is not going to change. You ar

Chapter 184 Let’s Make a Bet

Charles had spent the recent years self-cultivating. His temper was much toned down compared to when he was younger, and he seldom became enraged at others. But, Lola challenged him time and time again and it infuriated him. Larissa gave Charles a light pat on the back of his hand to comfort him. Charles, who was initially about to explode in anger, simmered down in a trice. He even watched Larissa with a hint of grievance in his eyes. Larissa almost couldn't hold back her laugh. No wonder it was said that people become more childlike as they age. Charles also didn't have the air of someone who was the head of the Hamilton family. He was just an old man who was waiting for his granddaughter-in-law to settle things in the face of his bullies. Larissa gave Charles another pat on the back of his hand, an indication that she would stand up for him. Charles became smug instantaneously. He tilted his chin upward and looked at Lola as if he was telling her that she was finished.

Chapter 185 Ignorant Confidence

Lola's tone of voice was intimidating."Whether you end up choosing something authentic or something fake, it's all on you. "My only promise to you is to allow you to choose three items. It is then up to your ability to pick the right ones."She paused before continuing in a stronger tone, "If you were to pick the wrong items, you'd only have your judgment to blame! Haha!"Once she had said that, the crowd was in an uproar. A senior in the crowd couldn't bear looking at the scene any longer. He walked up to Charles' side. In a low voice, he asked, "What's with you, old man? Are you just going to stand by and watch while your granddaughter causes trouble?" Puzzled, Charles looked over at his new company. The senior continued, "You should reprimand your granddaughter quickly. Don't bring upon yourself a debt of five million just because of one impulsive moment. If your entire family ends up in bankruptcy just to help repay your debt, what would all these be for? Young people a

Chapter 186 Knowing the Identity of Larissa

As it was in full view of everyone, no one could try anything sneaky or exchange anything. Now, a minor argument between two women was becoming a grand event in the industry.Many people were secretly sending messages on their phones, and they were calling all their friends to come and watch the drama taking place at Timeless Antiques. Soon after that, many people started rushing to Timeless Antiques. In the end, there were so many people that they couldn't fit into Timeless Antiques' showroom. They had no choice but to send security guards to maintain order.Then, they closed the main doors and forbade anyone else from entering. Those who had been stopped outside didn't want to leave. Instead, they found a place to sit down to have a cup of tea and wait for those inside to come out so that they could share the gossip with them.　There hadn't been such a grand scene in the world of antiques for a long time. The curious onlookers were determined to stay. Inside Timeless Anti

Chapter 187 It Is fake

Once Samuel had finished the introductions, the most exciting moment arrived. It was time to appraise the snuff box.Everyone walked to the center of the showroom where the snuff box was being kept.When the staff members opened the transparent acrylic box, everyone could see that the snuff box lay untouched inside. Firstly, the antique appraisal expert Mr. Jones appraised it, and after him was Professor Williams from the department of archeology at Union College …The experts appraised it one by one, and finally, the snuff box was passed to Samuel. Samuel was to make the final judgment. "Everyone, please wait a moment. Our expert team will discuss it and give a final appraisal.""Alright. I hope all the experts will take their time."When Lola finished, she glanced contemptuously at Larissa. But she was disappointed because she could not see any hint of worry or panic on Larissa's face.Her best friend said beside her, "We underestimated Larissa. She's so good at putting up

Chapter 188 Continue

Feeling Charles' unconditional trust towards her, Larissa felt touched. A year ago, when Larissa had just returned to the Solace home, she'd been full of anticipation and hope toward them. After all, they were the family that she had spent over ten years searching for. Blood was thicker than water. If not for Galileo's advice, perhaps she would have returned with her real identity as part of the super-rich elite instead of pretending to be a bumpkin who'd grown up in the countryside. In the year she'd spent with the Solaces after her return, she had seen Ethan's selfishness, Penelope's partiality, and Charmaine's greed. If she had come back with her identity as the chairwoman of Starlight Group from the beginning, she would probably have been welcomed by what appeared to be a warm, loving family. At a time when she had been completely disappointed by her family, Ambrose had given her a different kind of warmth. He'd given her comfort, compassion, and trust. She felt that sh

Chapter 189 All Authentic

Charles' curiosity was aroused and he couldn't wait to find out. But Larissa refused to explain and left Charles waiting impatiently. Seeing Charles gazing pitiably at her like a puppy, Larissa couldn't resist bursting out in laughter. She leaned over and whispered in his ear. Charles' eyes lit up as he listened."Is that true, Larissa?"Larissa smiled without a word. Charles became excited and started laughing. Someone near them couldn't resist coming up to them to gossip."Mr. Hamilton Senior, what did your granddaughter-in-law say to you?"Charles' expression changed at once and he stopped smiling.He said huffily, "Why should I tell you?"After failing to get any gossip, the onlooker was even more curious. Seeing Charles' expression of confidence, they wondered if one of the three antiques Larissa had chosen was especially valuable. As there were three antiques, the expert team took a longer time for appraisal. The onlookers weren't about to leave halfway through the dr

Chapter 190 Donate It to the Museum

Larissa looked reverent."That's because this wooden statue isn't just a wooden statue from the Eulade kingdom. The most important thing is that this is a Mortal Saint.""Wow!"At her words, everyone cried out in shock. "Oh my goodness!""A Mortal Saint!""Is it the kind of Mortal Saint that's only worshiped in the big churches up in the mountains?""I've never seen a Mortal Saint before, even at my age!"Those who didn't know what a Mortal Saint was began frantically asking the people around them. Others whipped out their phones to Google it. It was believed that when saints passed away, their bodies would not decompose but retain their living appearance. Mortal Saints were the proof of that.Not only was the crowd shocked, but even the experts' jaws dropped in surprise. Samuel had almost bumped into the showcase cabinet beside him and was saved by someone grabbing him to steady him. "Ms. Solace, is what you say true?"Samuel's face was flushed and his voice was trembli
