Mag-log inAmelia was caught off guard by the suddenness of it all. She shook her head gently, trying to clear her mind, but the heat from his palm was so intense that she couldn't ignore it."Wait a second." Amelia's breathing grew rapid, as if she were sinking into a quagmire, unable to pull herself out no matter how hard she tried.Carl looked at her with a smile, using one hand to tug open his collar. A button from his shirt fell to the floor with a soft sound. The dark shirt made his neck appear even paler, exuding an indescribable sense of restraint.Any girl would find it hard to resist—tall, wealthy, handsome, excelling in every way.But in Amelia's eyes, all she could see was his prominent Adam's apple and the faint veins beneath his skin. An inexplicable thirst welled up in her throat, making her want to bite down quickly.The scent emanating from the man before her was not that of cologne, and Amelia couldn't help but want to devour him.Amelia's hands clenched tightly. The dryness in
As soon as the words left his mouth, Reginald walked over: "Master Amelia, do you have a place to stay in Miami? If not, you can come to my place, there are still a few empty rooms.""Mr. Gorney, you don't need to worry about accommodation, and please don't call me Master, just Amelia is fine." Amelia paused, "Sit down and talk, he's one of us, no need to worry."Reginald nodded and sat down on the other side of Amelia: "Alright, I've made a decision, I'm going to transfer the Gorney Group to you."Upon hearing this, Amelia's fingers froze in midair: "There's no need, you just need to manage it well. I came to Miami to find the old members of the chamber of commerce, not for the resources in their hands, just to see if everyone is doing well."Reginald shook his head: "That's not what I mean. You've just arrived in Miami, and whatever you do, you can't get by without money and connections. Besides, I'm getting old, it's time for me to step back. Craig sent us to Miami back then to est
Carl parted his lips slightly, raising an amused eyebrow: "You are Master Amelia, no matter how deep the water is, it can't drown you."Amelia replied with a smile in her voice: "That's only because I have you by my side."After speaking, she turned her gaze to Elijah: "Elijah, come here."Hearing Amelia call him, Elijah trotted over eagerly. As soon as he sat down, Amelia said softly, "Elijah, you won't be able to have fried chicken and burgers tomorrow."Elijah turned his head: "Hmm? Why?"Amelia furrowed her brows: "Because I need to send you to take care of something."Elijah immediately shook his head like a rattle-drum: "Hmm, I don't want to go, I want to stay with Boss!"Amelia placed both hands on Elijah's head, her lips parting gently: "Not going to listen to your boss anymore?"Elijah pouted: "Boss finally found me, and now you want to leave me again. I don't care, I'm not listening."Amelia leaned in a bit closer, speaking in a voice only the two of them could hear: "Elijah
The noise was quite loud, and the guests present all turned to look toward the entrance.The newcomers were none other than Reginald, with Elijah and Christina standing behind him.Declan heard the commotion and strode over. "I'm glad you made it. The dinner has just begun, and the food and drinks are ready. Please, have a seat."Reginald replied with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. West."Amelia and Carl also looked over in the direction of the noise. At first, they thought it was just a late guest, but when Amelia glanced further back, she spotted a boy in a suit.Amelia's eyes narrowed slightly. "Elijah." The joy in her narrowed pupils was unmistakable.When Carl heard this, he also looked behind Reginald. "It really is him. I didn't expect him to show up here."Amelia wanted to get up and walk toward Elijah, but Carl held her back. "There are a lot of people here. Just stay seated, I'll go."No matter how much they searched the dark web or other channels, there had been no news of Elijah
The leader of the Dragon Order Sect standing nearby had already witnessed Amelia summon Ivan and Abel before, so their expressions showed no trace of surprise.Upon hearing this, the vengeful spirits also showed a hint of anticipation in their eyes.However, in this situation, there was no need for Ivan and Abel to appear; it was enough to call a few Ghost Escorts to take these vengeful spirits to reincarnation.Amelia parted her lips slightly, and a few seconds later, a layer of mist rose in the distance. Within the mist stood two figures holding Soul-Extinguishing Staffs, prepared for those vengeful spirits who might resist.Normally, a cultivator would need to set up an altar, perform rituals, and offer tributes, greeting the Ghost Escorts with utmost respect.But she did nothing of the sort; she merely moved her lips, and the Ghost Escorts arrived upon hearing the call. This truly opened the eyes of the cultivators present.The two Ghost Escorts had just been about to enjoy a good
But Clement did not agree: "With so many vengeful spirits present, if I don't act, am I supposed to just stand by and watch them hurt people?""They're seeking revenge, not harming the innocent." One of the Dragon Order Sect leaders stroked his beard. "Clement, don't try to change the subject. When have we cultivators ever failed to settle our grievances? Why is it that with you, there are always excuses? If you had a grudge, would you wait until your next life to settle it?""Your disciple must pay something today to appease all this overwhelming resentment."Clement furrowed his brows, wanting to say more: "These evil spirits...""Evil spirits?" The sect leader looked him over. "And who turned them into evil spirits? Forcibly suppressing them and using their souls to nourish your path? Is this what the Heavenly Will Sect teaches its priests? Truly eye-opening for us at the Dragon Order Sect. Did they commit evil in life? Forrest forced them into this state, most of them can't even r
