Semua Bab The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call: Bab 1341 - Bab 1350

Jett finally broke the silence. "Wait a minute. Is there some kind of misunderstanding here?"Aria raised an eyebrow, her tone dropping. "Are you planning to beg for mercy?"Jett, unlike most of the Grisham family, wasn't as domineering but cared deeply about his kin. "We should talk it out, no matter what happened. We're still family."Aria nodded slightly. "Clearing things up is best." She gestured for Robert to be thrown onto the ground. "Speak. I'm listening."Terrified after recent events, Robert didn't dare hold anything back. He confessed how he had betrayed the Grisham family, toyed with their trust, and sabotaged Fiona's return.Jett was left stunned. He looked as if his entire worldview had shattered. "You're saying Ms. Draycott ordered all this? That can't be true!"Turning to his father, he pleaded, "Dad, this doesn't make sense!"Eamon took a deep breath and said lowly, "How did I end up with a son like you?"Jett clenched his fists. "I know you and Grandpa don't t

Waymond was sure of one thing—he would be taken away for investigation by the authorities. Regardless of the outcome, the Grisham family's stocks would plummet. With Clyde's health condition, he might not be able to take the toll. Eamon would also be too busy to deal with everything.Although Waymond was not afraid of going to jail, he worried the Grisham family would collapse if he did. However, he couldn't seem to recall where the financial record came from. If it involved property development, it must have been from his early years.Waymond finally understood why Aria wanted to talk to him privately. Only he could know about this."Aria, trust me. I've never broken the law in my business career. Does this involve the Grisham family?" Waymond asked, flipping through the documents."Yes. This is Orion's backup plan," Aria admitted, laying out the entire story. She wanted to warn him to be vigilant—and test his reaction.Although Aria trusted her family, she couldn't ignore the

Despite her fear, Lily held tightly to Orion's hand as she stood.Orion paused, considering his words before speaking. "Your experience is certainly shocking but not entirely hard to believe. As it happens, Aria will be tied up with other matters for the next few days. Why not use this time to prove yourself? Tell me what's about to happen."Lily, showing more composure this time, promptly responded. "A famous novel is about to announce its TV adaptation."Orion's brows knit together. The news didn't interest him, but it could be the perfect way to confirm Lily's claim of being reborn. "Who's the director, and how are they promoting it?"Lily rattled off the details with ease, then added, "The authorities will announce development plans for land east of the bridge in a few days. But I'm not sure of the exact location.""The slums on the east side?" Orion asked, skeptical. Everyone in Ludwiten knew developing that area was a long shot.Still, he saw an opportunity. If her informat

Waymond patted Jett's shoulder and laughed heartily. "You're indeed like me. We're both gullible and headstrong. We easily pity others and get deceived too."The financial records Aria handed him were indeed a disaster he'd sown himself back in his early days, trusting the wrong people. Waymond said straightforwardly, "It's good for you to follow Aria."Jett only reckoned that Aria was a good fighter. As for the other aspects, he thought he was still more knowledgeable despite his lack of talent. After all, he was older than her and had graduated from a business school.Despite thinking that, Jett could only nod under such circumstances. While Aria understood what he was thinking, she kept quiet.Just then, Aria's phone buzzed with a call from Sam. He didn't say anything but tapped his fingers lightly against the microphone. Aria smiled and said dotingly, "Okay. I'll go and take a look later. Are you hungry? Make sure you eat something."Sam had an aloof expression as he sent

It all began with Jett's so-called friends and connections—many of whom were tied to his mother's side of the family. Aria quickly realized their true intention wasn't to destroy the Grisham family but to pull Jett closer to their circle. As the future heir of the Grisham family, Jett was a valuable asset. To win his favor, they indulged his every whim and even orchestrated friendships for him. Some of those connections were with the Draycott family's men.Aria had taken great care to filter out anyone with links to the Grishams. Even so, she was stunned to find she had overlooked two people in Jett's circle. If she hadn't checked the IP address behind the video Isaiah just sent, those two would have remained hidden.The bigger the family, the more tangled the web of relationships. Aria had never felt that way about her own family—her brothers weren't married, and the Carver family had few extended relatives. But the Grishams were another story entirely. Missing even the smallest d
