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

    Clearly, there was some unwillingness in her heart. But in front of Curtis, what could she say? What could she say when Curtis tightly controlled every step?"Pack your things. I'll have the driver send you over later," Curtis said, rubbing his sore temples with fatigue evident in his voice.Seraphine stiffened at this. She had been waiting for this day for a long time. But when it finally arrived, she still couldn't believe it!"Father." Tears welled up in her eyes instantly.But Curtis wouldn't indulge in sentimentalities. He only spoke sternly and coldly, "I'm tired.""Okay. I'll prepare right away." Even though there wouldn't be a wedding, being sent to Malcolm's side like this left a bitter taste in her mouth. But she knew that this day had been hard-won, so the formalities didn't matter much to her now.As Seraphine rose to leave, Curtis spoke seriously, "Remember, from now on, your surname will be Entes. You're part of the Entes family. Everything must revolve around the

    Luna! As soon as Cole heard the name, his expression darkened, and Natalie and Austin instantly confirmed their suspicions.Something had happened to Luna."Speak!" The word was icy.Cole replied, "We received news that Miss Luna is missing. Mr. Johnson's people are searching everywhere."Natalie and Austin exchanged a glance. Natalie's face had turned pale, and her vision blurred."Luna..." Natalie took a deep breath, feeling like she had lost her hearing. The impact Luna's disappearance had on her was indescribable.Austin stepped forward and embraced her. "Nat, listen to me.""Who could have taken Luna from Cedric at a time like this?" Natalie thought about the unknown possibilities, trembling uncontrollably.Seeing Natalie like this, Austin felt heartbroken. The news hit them like a ton of bricks, leaving them directionless.What did Luna's disappearance mean for them?"We must find Luna." Natalie's chest ached terribly. "We must find Luna, we must..." Natalie repea

    When this thought struck, Seraphine's face turned completely sour, and Percival descended while giving Seraphine a disapproving look. He spoke tightly, "Ms. Holly, this way, please.""Where am I staying?""In the guest room on the side of the annex."As if the guest room wasn't enough, it had to be on the side of the annex?!Seraphine's expression worsened at this moment. This was undoubtedly the biggest insult for someone who grew up in the Holly family.Malcolm!"I'll go see Lord Malcolm first," Seraphine said as she got up, about to head upstairs.But the next moment, Percival stopped her. "Ms. Holly, it's not a good time to see Lord Malcolm now."Percival's tone was uneasy. Considering Malcolm's reaction to Seraphine's name just now, it was evident that the situation was puzzling!At least the rumors of these past few days were definitely not like this.With her already sour expression, Seraphine couldn't contain her anger as she looked at Percival, who stubbornly stood

    No one bothered to set utensils for Seraphine, but Seraphine didn't care. She grabbed Malcolm's and used them without hesitation. The audacity of her actions sent shivers down everyone's spine.Malcolm's eyes darkened at Seraphine's behavior. "Get her utensils," he ordered.Before Seraphine could use his utensils, he slapped them to the ground.The sound of utensils clattering echoed around her feet, and she felt the scratch on her leg. However, Seraphine remained unfazed.Raising an eyebrow at Malcolm, she stated, "I know you're upset, but back in Weiss Town, you tied me to you willingly!"The atmosphere in the entire dining room turned icy once again at her dangerous words.What did she mean? Was she implying that everything happening now was Malcolm's own doing?!Regardless of the circumstances back then, when Malcolm announced his engagement to Seraphine, no one forced him.Looking at the woman before him, Malcolm's eyes flickered dangerously. "So?"Feeling the danger

    Natalie paused slightly, not turning back. Her silhouette seemed colder and more aloof than ever. When Cedric told her she couldn't do this, Natalie let out a cold laugh. "I can't?"How ironic.Turning back, Natalie's eyes were devoid of warmth, as if she had none at all. Her icy and deep gaze tightened people's hearts. "You, with your moral decay and corrupt mind, have the audacity to talk about what can't be done?""Nat!" Cedric felt suffocated as he watched her.But Natalie didn't wait for him to finish speaking. She coldly continued, "How many times did I say that you can't do it when you were doing those things?"Too many times!Every time they tangled up afterward, Natalie repeatedly told Cedric he couldn't! "But how did you respond?" Natalie sharply countered.Exactly!How did Cedric respond back then?He became more vicious and ruthless each time, eventually causing Natalie to lose everything to him, even her life...!Now, this life of hers was salvaged and earn

    Ultimately, he was wrong.Why would Natalie ever return to his side out of guilt? She hated everyone around him—Isabella… and Kayla! Regardless of what Isabella did for Natalie in the past life or how Kayla viewed her and Luna like family, Natalie's hatred knew no bounds. Even if they were all dead, Natalie would still find it insufficient."Nat..." Cedric whispered Natalie's name, feeling a despair he'd never felt before.-Meanwhile, Malcolm wasn't having a good time either. Curtis's attitude had thwarted all his plans. Now, thanks to Curtis's manipulation, the whole of Simeria was buzzing with rumors about his impending marriage to Seraphine."It seems you have no choice but to marry me now," Seraphine said wryly when she saw the reports. Though she felt some resentment towards Curtis's ruthlessness, she couldn't deny that the level of public manipulation now was exactly what she wanted."As if you have a choice!" Malcolm replied dangerously.Seraphine stiffened. Then

    Carol understood Curtis's intentions. Malcolm wanted to settle things before Bianca's return, while Curtis aimed to ensure there would be no resolution between Malcolm and Seraphine."What about Miss...?" Carol voiced her concern.When Bianca was mentioned, Curtis's icy demeanor softened slightly. "Even though she hasn't been around for years, judging from past events, she doesn't like Lord Malcolm. If it's not to her liking, we'll clear everything up before her return."Carol nodded, hoping things would turn out well. "But Lord Malcolm doesn't seem like he'll give up easily," she added, expressing the most distressing aspect of the situation.Curtis understood Carol's implication. "Whether he's willing or not doesn't matter. If Bia doesn't like it, he won't have a chance to persist."In his tone lay an unprecedented coldness and dominance, reflecting his protective instincts toward his daughter."Miss is coming back tomorrow," Carol informed him."Okay," Curtis responded, f

    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
