Semua Bab The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call: Bab 321 - Bab 330

Despite Warren being concerned about the many problems in the house, he was pleased that Aria was so knowledgeable. After all, she even knew a thing or two about interior design. Aria was way more accomplished than his friends' grandchildren, whose knowledge was gained from textbooks. After surveying Warren's bedroom, she ordered all the plants to be removed. Only a chamomile plant was left behind to improve sleep quality. Her primary goal was to locate the source of the poison, but she ended up uncovering numerous design flaws in the room.Aria would have disregarded it if it had only been a few problems. After all, people nowadays wouldn't take this concept into consideration when designing their houses.However, it struck Aria as odd that issues were everywhere in the room. If she hadn't looked closely, she might have missed them.Aria's expression turned grim as she stood in the middle of the room. It was difficult for her to believe such a layout was a coincidence.Prestig

The person who spoke wore a hood that covered his features. "Yes. I followed your instructions and set the traps. They're so subtle that nobody would notice. Besides, Warren is arrogant and scoffs at fortune tellers. The Carver family will crumble within two years, tops."The old man seated on the chair began slowly, "I've told you repeatedly, our goal isn't to eradicate the entire Carver family."The old man rose to his feet. "There are many of them in the Carver family, so let's deal with them one by one. It won't take long till the old one dies. Those who don't usually come home will be hard to deal with, but I have my eyes on the youngest son. The entertainment industry is ruthless, after all."The hooded man slowly smiled. "You're right. I almost forgot about him. He's much easier to deal with than the others."The old man fiddled with his beads. "Don't make it too obvious. Go on.""Yes, sir."It took them more than a decade to set up a trap in the Carver residence's layout.

Landon slid the plate of steak he had cut to Aria. "Mindy really wants to get married to me, but I rejected her."Aria was quite taken aback."I wanted to tell you early to avoid any misunderstanding," he explained wearily. "As my supposed girlfriend, you seem unfazed by all the gossip."Aria took a bite of the steak he had cut up for her. "I do care. It's just that I haven't caught wind of it yet. Stay away from her, though.""Okay," Landon replied, amused. He wondered if Aria was jealous of Mindy.The answer, however, was far from it. "She has an unusual scent that might be harmful to your health," Aria said."That's it?" Landon asked with a low voice.As the saxophonist was just nearby, Aria couldn't hear Landon clearly. "What did you say?""Nothing important. Did you suspect Mindy of having bad intentions towards the Carvers? What have you discovered now?" Landon's smile was pleasant.Aria couldn't help but think that he was way too smart for his own good. He always saw th

Landon frowned but answered the call anyway. The person on the other end of the line seemed to be worried he would get angry. He explained frantically, "Boss, we're still working on getting a higher profit margin from our side. It's around 10% now, and I know you're not satisfied with it. As for Barry…"The phone call had attracted Aria's attention. When she looked over, she widened her eyes. Landon gently turned her head. "Don't move. I don't want to burn you with the dryer.""Go on and take the call. I can finish drying my hair." Aria felt it was inappropriate for him to blow-dry her hair while in a meeting.Landon chuckled. "I'm blow-drying my fiancée's hair right now. Can you hold off the report for a minute?"On the other end of the line, Edward Sarris was speechless. Collecting himself, he stuttered, "Go ahead, Boss! I'm sorry for disturbing you."Edward wondered why he had chosen to call five minutes before the official meeting. This awkward moment could have been avoid

Aria couldn't care less about the marriage, and Landon seemed equally disinterested. So, Aria told his grandfather to call it off. When people later compared her to Mindy, Landon replied, "The Carver family values blood relations, and the person I was engaged to is Ms. Carver. It's not that I don't want her or anything. She's the one who didn't like me. Stop spreading nonsense."By then, Landon was already suffering from severe coughing fits, yet he stood up for Aria in a circle where everyone seemed to despise her. This happened after Warren had passed away.Everything after that was a blur for Aria. When she finally intended to visit and check on him, news came of his car accident. Aria couldn't understand why he had suddenly ended up in such a situation.Aria abruptly woke up, instinctively shielding her eyes from the sunlight. For a moment, she couldn't discern whether she was dreaming or awake. It was only when she turned her head and touched Landon's pajamas that she breathe
