Gazing at the kneeling Seraphine, Curtis harbored no shred of tenderness in his eyes. Instead, they grew sharper and colder with each passing moment.

Previously, Seraphine had once knelt before his wife. Time and time again, she evoked sympathy by making herself seem like a pitiable figure bereft of support.

But the Holly family had nurtured an arrogance in Seraphine that she shouldn't have possessed.

Curtis shut his eyes. "I'll give you an hour to leave. If you're still here after an hour, then..."

Then, what?

Curtis didn't finish his sentence, but judging by his icy tone, it was clear he wouldn't allow Seraphine to remain part of the Holly family any longer.

Her initial fervent pleas rendered futile, Seraphine fell silent.

Who would have thought that this would be the outcome?

Curtis was different from Eleanor. Though Eleanor could be sharp, she was also a woman with a soft heart.

But Curtis… At this moment, he was the very embodiment of a saying: when a man becomes ruthless

    There was still no word from Bianca. Both Malcolm and Seraphine were searching for her, but they couldn't find anything. Seraphine had been avoiding Curtis lately, afraid he might kick her out of the Holly family."Is there still no news?" Malcolm's voice over the phone sounded tense and threatening.How long had it been? Nearly a month! Yet, there was still no sign of Bianca."We've scoured every village nearby!" Horatio exclaimed.They had searched every possible place, but Bianca remained elusive. Before Malcolm could speak, Horatio continued, "Ms. Sanders is probably not in Weiss Town anymore."Malcolm tensed at the news. "That's impossible! She couldn't have left within an hour of departing Snow Peak. We had the town locked down tight by then.""But we've checked everywhere here," Horatio replied calmly, implying the obvious.If Bianca wasn't in Weiss Town, how did she leave? Malcolm's eyes flashed with icy determination."Horatio!""Yes?""Check the airport survei

    Clearly, even now, mentioning Simeria still made her complexion change slightly.Simon noticed her expression."Lately, Malcolm Entes has been looking for you in Simeria. How did you manage to get on his bad side?" Simon's tone indicated Malcolm's notoriety. Also, Simon didn't know Bianca was in Simeria until recently. It was quite a surprise for him to find her there!He learned about it when he went on a business trip to Weiss Town.Bianca replied, "It's a long story. Anyway, I'll take your case."Simon was taken aback, evidently not expecting Bianca to agree so readily. He had thought it would take some convincing."Really?" He looked at Bianca.On her way here, Bianca had already reviewed the relevant materials of the lawsuit and understood how challenging it was. Yet, she agreed."Why? Don't you trust me?" she asked."No, I just want to tell you that this appeal is crucial for us," Simon replied.Indeed. They had already failed twice. If they couldn't win this time,

    When did she leave?Malcolm's suspicious gaze was clearly directed at Austin now, indicating his doubt.Austin paid no heed to his suspicion. Over the years in Simeria, he knew Malcolm's every move, especially considering Malcolm's tendency towards suspicion. There had been far too many mistakes caused by his suspicion before things were clear."It should've been before you came back that she went back to Verde City, right?"Austin's words implied that he had nothing to do with what happened. Malcolm felt like his head was throbbing. He wanted nothing more than to tear Bianca to pieces. So, she had already gone back to Verde City before he returned to Simeria? She left Weiss Town right after leaving Snow Peak? She had been planning everything before that?! He thought of how obedient she seemed in those last few days, as if everything had been going smoothly. But he should have realized that a woman with such pride could never be so compliant! There must have been some hidde

    On Natalie's end, things had been tormenting for her. But just when she felt she couldn't hold on any longer, Austin returned."We have news about Luna."Upon hearing this, the stone lodged in Natalie's throat dissolved into a sense of grievance. She rushed forward to hug the man's slender waist, and her petite frame couldn't help but tremble.She missed Luna terribly. But facing this situation now, she asked, "What kind of news?""Luna is likely in Verde City."At that, Natalie abruptly lifted her head from the man's embrace. In Verde City? Cedric had actually sent Luna to Verde City? She remembered that Cedric and Kayla had been living there before.What did it mean to bring Luna back there now? Did it imply that everything would return to the past? If he thought that, then it was all wishful thinking! Natalie would never go back to him in this lifetime."We must bring her back!" Natalie's voice was choked with emotion as she pleaded in the man's arms.Austin gently kis

    But why would Bianca accept the case? "She never wanted to come back to Simeria, right?" Natalie looked at Clyde with confusion.Clearly, she didn't understand why Bianca would do it. "She's coming back in a week anyway. You can ask her directly then," Clyde replied.They had already set a time? And Clyde knew so much about it. Clearly, there were procedural reasons behind it. Bianca always seemed to find a way.But to Natalie, Bianca's return this time seemed not so simple.Worry flashed in her eyes. Just as Clyde was about to say something else, Natalie's phone vibrated. She picked it up, and her expression stiffened instantly.Then she looked at Clyde. "Cedric's calling."Clyde frowned. "You should answer it." Natalie nodded and answered the call. "Hello.""It's me." Cedric's voice came through the phone, carrying a hint of restrained danger. Natalie glanced at Clyde sitting across from her and then replied coldly, "I know.""You know?""Yes. I know you've come

    It took Cedric a while to realize what Kyle was saying, and a coldness crept onto his face. "Luna is missing?""Yes, and it wasn't Lord Austin's people who took her!" Kyle said urgently.The whole study was now filled with a dangerous chill.Cedric narrowed his eyes dangerously. "Not Austin's people? Are you sure?" Besides Austin's people, there were only Clyde's people around now. In any case, it was their side that kept searching for Luna."It wasn't them!" Kyle affirmed."..." It wasn't?What did that mean?It meant Luna... "Luna's missing?" Cedric finally grasped the situation and looked at Kyle with a dangerous gaze.Kyle, already tense, was now sweating profusely.He nodded. "Yes!"Cedric narrowed his eyes even more dangerously, his entire being radiating an endless sense of danger!It was as if he wanted to burn the whole space to ashes."We need to investigate immediately." He wanted to see who dared to take his daughter at such a critical moment.Kyle

    Curtis seemed noticeably better because Bianca was coming back. When Carol took the medicine and water for him, she glanced at the servant who delivered the medicine and asked sternly, "No one touched it along the way, right?""Don't worry, Ms. Carol. I was the only one who touched it.""Alright."Hearing this, Carol felt somewhat relieved.Then the servant said, "Ms. Seraphine wanted to deliver the medicine herself, but I refused."Carol furrowed her brows at this. She glanced instinctively at Curtis, who didn't say anything. Then, Carol said, "You'll be working in the master's building for the next few days.""Yes, Ms. Carol."The servant, hearing this, also felt a bit relieved.After all, even though Curtis and Eleanor might not know about Seraphine's tricks behind the scenes, the servants were aware. And today's incident, though the servant spoke lightly of it, was indirectly informing Carol that she might face difficulties because of it. And Carol, in her own way, wa

    Curtis set down the teapot in his hand and picked up the teacup in front of him. The aroma of tea always had a magical way of temporarily relaxing the mind. As he set it down, he looked at Malcolm with authority."Seraphine is the adopted daughter of the Holly family, and I've thought carefully about it these past few days. Since she's followed you, Lord Malcolm, at this critical moment, we, the Holly family, shouldn't hold her back from what she wants."At Curtis's words, Malcolm froze abruptly. His gaze at Curtis also tightened at this moment. Curtis continued, "This is also considered a marriage alliance between the Holly family and you, Lord Malcolm. In that case, we should make sure that it's grand enough. So, regarding the dowry, I'll provide the same share as a legitimate heiress would get.""Mr. Holly!" Malcolm's tone tightened instantly.Obviously, he didn't expect Curtis to be such a sly old fox. He knew Curtis was cunning before, but he didn't expect him to be this c

    Bianca was still pondering how to reject Malcolm. Undoubtedly, even when she sought him out a week ago and proposed they get married, she hadn't truly wanted to marry him. As she contemplated things now, she even anticipated how crazed Malcolm might become when she presented her decision.Her phone buzzed with a call from Malcolm. In the past, Bianca would have ignored it outright, but now... she wasn't one to burn bridges."Hello?""I'll be there in ten minutes. Come down.""It's quite late."Just like before, whenever this man wanted to talk to her, especially about meeting up, she couldn't muster a pleasant expression.The man on the other end of the line simply stated, "I want to see you."Bianca’s heart clenched at those words. She was accustomed to Malcolm's cold, domineering demeanor. Even when he desired a woman, he maintained that haughty attitude. So, hearing such tender words from him was beyond her expectations."Hmph.""Come down, okay? I have a surprise for you."

    As Zane reached halfway up the hill, he noticed a familiar car parked outside. Neil, the butler, was waiting outside, and upon seeing Zane return, he approached respectfully."Lord Zane.""Who's here?" Zane frowned, glancing at the brightly lit villa.What was going on? Usually, this place was dim in the evenings, but today, everything was unexpectedly bright."Ms. Stewart has returned," Neil replied.Zane's mind went blank for a moment. He stared stiffly at the butler, his pupils rapidly constricting."Ms. Stewart arrived this afternoon."Yvette!The familiar name flashed through Zane's mind like a gust of wind. How many times had he wanted to hold onto her? But in the end, for various reasons, he had to let her go bit by bit.And now, Yvette was back!Where had she been all this time?Since leaving Simeria, it was like she was a bird that had escaped its cage and soared into the sky, never to return. Zane had asked the Stewart family about her once, but even they didn't kn

    "Maybe something happened," said Bianca.Natalie felt her eyelids twitch in response. What kind of terrifying situation was this?"When I say 'something happened,' I don't mean anything bad, but..."But what?In that moment, Bianca's gaze toward Natalie deepened, and she understood what her friend meant."You mean...?" asked Natalie.Bianca nodded silently.Natalie fell quiet as she pondered the situation.What if that was really the case?Natalie couldn't help but admit that if it truly was, it would naturally be a favorable outcome for her."Don't forget, if he can come, he can also leave. He can't change anything here, so it's better for him to return to the world he belongs to," Bianca explained.During this time, Natalie had transformed Simeria into a fortress. But even in such circumstances, Cedric had mysteriously vanished. Up until now, there hadn't been any clues. Even Kyle had been through so much, yet hadn't uttered any useful information.So, it had to be said t

    Bianca’s calmness and composure, despite her young age, spoke volumes about how her experiences and wisdom had shaped her thoughts.Curtis, initially worried about her, felt somewhat relieved seeing the tranquility and maturity in his daughter’s eyes.He nodded slowly. "Hmm."In the end, he agreed.After all, she was his daughter. Despite not being raised by him since childhood, Curtis could see it clearly. Like her mother, Bianca would stick to her decisions, impervious to outside interference.Seeing Curtis finally eating, Bianca felt a sense of relief. After lunch, she considerately accompanied her father for a stroll before allowing him to rest.When Carol emerged from Curtis' room, she saw Bianca waiting nearby and hurried over respectfully."Miss.""How is he?" Bianca inquired."Sir is still worried about you, miss," Carol replied sincerely.Having been by Curtis' side for many years, Carol naturally understood Bianca's significance in his heart.Bianca sighed. "It wil

    As she spoke, Seraphine felt the already dangerous aura around the man grow even darker, sending her heart racing. She tried to speak, but found herself speechless."Hmph, you useless thing!" Zane cursed menacingly.Cold sweat soaked Seraphine's back completely."There must be a way," she choked out, her tone tense.At that moment, Seraphine recalled what Zane had said to her before she came back to Simeria.He had told her that he never kept useless individuals around him. To gain his protection, one had to be useful. And now, Seraphine's only use—her engagement to Malcolm—had been effortlessly annulled."Heh," Zane sneered disdainfully.For Seraphine, this disdain was not only humiliating, but also starkly different from her experiences with Eleanor. In Eleanor's presence, she had never faced such disrespect. But now, it seemed like anyone could trample on her.In the past, even members of the Entes family wouldn't openly show contempt towards her, but now… Those past comfort

    Seraphine had always harbored resentment towards Bianca. But Bianca had always been a rather composed individual, rarely resorting to such actions.So, what was she doing now?"You..." Seraphine's initial fury had been turned to speechlessness by Bianca's aggression.When Seraphine glanced at Bianca, she caught a glimpse of malice in the other woman's eyes.Before Seraphine could utter a word, Bianca bluntly asked, "You know, don't you?"Seraphine stayed silent.Know what?"You knew that Lord Malcolm and Lord Zane are half brothers You also knew why Lord Zane sought you out and took your side, right?" Bianca continued.Seraphine's face drained of color in an instant. And every subtle change in her expression was noticed by Bianca, whose eyes were filled with icy mockery.Stepping forward, Bianca gripped Seraphine's delicate chin. Seraphine instinctively tried to evade, but Bianca's hold was firm."You still dare claim this is your home?" Bianca scoffed."This has always been

    When would the cycle of revenge end?While Bianca hadn't decided what to do about Eleanor's actions, Zane had already shown his claws.When would it end?If someone kept chasing after a person, what could they do?"Bia…"Curtis wanted to say something to his daughter, but was met with her unwavering gaze. Clearly, she wouldn't back down this time, just like her mother never did when faced with such situations. Both women faced things head-on, without flinching."Don't worry, okay?" Bianca reassured Curtis.There was another reason she was insisting on staying in Simeria—Bianca knew Curtis wouldn't leave with her. So, she wouldn't leave either.-Bianca and Curtis talked for a long time.Curtis still wanted to send her abroad, but her resolute attitude left him powerless. Moreover, from various pieces of information gathered earlier, it was clear that Bianca was a strong-willed child.No matter what problems she faced, she had her own opinions. So, asking her to leave was s

    When Bianca returned to the Holly family’s residence, she found Curtis staring gravely at some documents. When he started coughing violently, his face turning as pale as a sheet, Carol hurried over to check on him."Sir, let Ms. Bianca handle these documents. Please don't strain yourself," Carol said, her tone full of concern."I see now," Curtis muttered heavily, as if he had just realized something crucial.Not understanding what he meant, Carol simply urged, "Your health can't handle this strain. Don't tire yourself out. You must trust Ms. Bianca."Curtis fell silent.Trust?He had always trusted Bianca, but now he regretted bringing her back. If he had never found her, would things be different now?"Where did she go?" Curtis asked."Ms. Bianca went out, but she'll be back soon," Carol reassured him, gently taking the documents from his hands.Ever since Bianca told the older woman about Curtis' health problems, Carol had been extra vigilant, making sure he avoided anythin

    Bianca stared at the dangerous man, memories of their harmonious past flashing through her mind. Those moments had once seemed so genuine, yet now felt laughably absurd."Haha, how ridiculous!" Bianca scoffed, her laughter bitter."Bianca!" Zane's voice was sharp, cutting through her mirth."Zane, what if I reveal your true intentions to everyone? What will they think then?""Who would believe you?" Zane interrupted coldly, not letting her finish.Bianca's smile froze on her lips. He was right.Who would believe her? Curtis might, and so would Natalie. But was their trust enough?Clearly, it wasn't.But did it matter?"It's not your concern who believes me. I have never needed anyone's belief to stand strong," said Bianca.Many had doubted her before, but none had ever managed to break her spirit. The dangers she faced now might be greater, but for Bianca, they were just another set of challenges.She had overcome every hardship she encountered. This time would be no differe
