“Your eldest brother hired a designer from abroad. If you like it, he can introduce you.”

“Alright.” Amelia’s lips curved slightly. “But, Grandpa, I see a lot of traditional elements in this design, including Environmental Energy. These rolling stones are all cobblestones, symbolizing a steady flow of wealth, right?”

Mr. Cromwell’s eyes lit up. “Amelia, you even know this?”

“I’ve read some miscellaneous books.” Amelia’s smile was gentle. “Grandpa, the layout is indeed exquisite, but the positioning is off. In Environmental Energy, the Azure Dragon and White Tiger positions are located on either side of a house’s entrance. If there’s a direct water flow in front, it creates a ‘pushcart effect,’ which means wealth will be drained away instead of accumulated.”

She pointed to a skylight in the corner. “Heaven is round, and the earth is square. The best rooms are square. A missing northwest corner negatively affects career and health. Over time, it will create harmful energy and needs to

    With so many issues in the house, Mr. Cromwell was both concerned and pleased.How did his Amelia know so much?Even when talking about Environmental Energy, she spoke with confidence and clarity.His old friends might have talented grandchildren, but they only had academic achievements.His Amelia was different!Amelia inspected the bedroom, instructing the staff to remove excessive plants, leaving only one that aided sleep.Her primary goal was to find the source of the negative energy.After a thorough search, she didn’t find anything poisonous—but she did uncover several Environmental Energy flaws.A single flaw wouldn’t have been a major issue.After all, most people don’t pay attention to these things.But the eerie part was that problems were everywhere—subtle enough that the average person wouldn’t notice.Standing in the center of the study, Amelia’s gaze deepened.She didn’t believe this was a coincidence.A prestigious family like the Cromwells, blessed for generations, s

    Although Secretary Frank was not yet forty, he had been with the Cromwell family for a long time.His father had also served as Mr. Cromwell’s secretary in the past.Now, he too remained in the Cromwell family, but aside from the chairman, there was hardly anyone else he was truly willing to work for.Headhunters had approached him multiple times, yet he always thought he’d wait until Mr. Cromwell decided to let go before considering other opportunities.Now that Miss.Cromwell was back, he had made his decision.“Miss.Cromwell resembles both you and Madam,” Secretary Frank rarely spoke so candidly. “She is also respectful toward us employees.”Hearing this, Mr. Cromwell let out a long sigh. “My failing health has caused you all to suffer as well.”“It’s not your fault!” Secretary Frank quickly reassured him. “With Miss.Cromwell here, we will surely be treated well.”Amelia, unsure how the conversation had shifted to her, remained silent.But Mr. Cromwell was visibly proud. “Amelia is

    “Yes, everything has been arranged as per your instructions.”“The setup is subtle—no one will notice.”“Mr. Cromwell has always seen himself as above such things and never believed in Environmental Energy.”“In less than two years, the Cromwell family will surely fall.”The speaker was cloaked, their features obscured.The elderly man seated in the chair spoke slowly, “How many times have I taught you? Our goal is not the Cromwell family’s destruction.”He stood up as he continued, “The the Cromwell family is large and prosperous—we take them one by one. The old one should be nearing his end. As for those who don’t return home, they are harder to grasp. But the entertainment industry is a murky place. I think the Cromwell family’s sixth son is a good choice.”“You’re right, I had almost forgotten about him.” The cloaked figure chuckled softly. “Compared to the others, he’ll be the easiest to deal with.”The old man turned his prayer beads between his fingers. “Don’t make it too obvi

    Amelia casually placed her black bag down and raised an eyebrow at Elijah. Elijah gestured toward Carl, signaling that he was to blame. Carl glanced at the fish tank and chuckled, "With Elijah’s special abilities, we might have to cancel our visit to the aquarium tomorrow."Amelia noticed the koi fish foaming in the tank and realized Elijah’s secret was out. She popped a fruit candy into her mouth and smiled, "Shall we talk downstairs?"Victoria, peeling an apple, asked, "Why can’t you talk here?""It’s a the Cromwell family matter, and he knows more about it. It involves privacy," Amelia explained.Hearing this, Victoria didn’t press further.Carl straightened up, walked closer to Amelia, and said naturally, "Alright, let’s also talk about meeting the parents."Meeting the parents?Elijah’s head shot up in shock, and Amelia momentarily froze mid-bite. Only Victoria chuckled, "Carl is quite thoughtful, but there’s no rush. You two haven’t been together for long.""Grandma, I’m in a bi

    Carl cut her steak into small pieces and pushed the plate toward her. "She wanted to marry into the Jenkins family, but I rejected her."Amelia: …"You should’ve said so earlier, just in case I misunderstood." Carl’s handsome eyes reflected a hint of helplessness. "You really don’t care about me at all, huh? Even when it comes to scandalous rumors."Amelia took a bite of steak. "It just hadn’t reached my ears yet. But now that I know—I suggest you stay away from her.""Alright." Carl’s eyes softened with amusement—was she jealous?Amelia wasn’t overthinking it. "Her perfume is strange. It’s bad for your health.""Just because of that?" Carl’s voice dropped a notch.The saxophone played softly in the background, making Amelia lean in. "What?""Nothing. Do you suspect she’s a threat to the Cromwell family?" Carl’s smile was gentle but shrewd. "Did you discover something during your visit?"Amelia often found that this man was too perceptive. She would say one thing, and he’d instantly d

    "In my honor." Carl’s smile deepened, his gold-rimmed glasses making him look all the more refined yet cunning.The bodyguards of the Jenkins family’s main residence had never seen their young master behave like this. Their thoughts were running wild.This young doctor is really something, they thought. She dared to tease their young master? At social events, women struggled to even approach him, let alone flirt. But Amelia... her tone, her posture—so natural, as if their young master had already been recruited under her command."If that's the case, then you're mine now," Amelia said, her voice firm once she made up her mind. She was possessive like that.Carl twirled a strand of her hair around his fingers. "Alright, I'm yours."Amelia let out a yawn, showing clear signs of exhaustion. "I still haven't figured out what that sponsored student’s scent means. I need Elijah to meet her again," she muttered, her eyes half-closed.Carl gently rubbed her head. "Sleepy?" he asked, his tone

    Carl raised an eyebrow but didn’t avoid the call. He pressed ‘accept.’A nervous voice immediately came through. "Boss, we’re still negotiating on the profit margins. Right now, we’re at ten percent, but I know that’s unacceptable to you. Smith’s side—"The voice was loud enough that Amelia’s sleepy eyes opened slightly in curiosity.Carl turned her face away. "Don’t move, the dryer’s hot.""You take the call, I’ll dry my own hair," she suggested, feeling the situation was a bit inappropriate.Carl chuckled softly. Then, as if it was the most natural thing in the world, he said to the phone, "I’m drying my fiancée’s hair. Report back in a minute."Edward: "...""Understood, Boss! Take your time!"Why did he call now?!The official meeting wasn’t for another five minutes!Amelia wasn’t about to let him delay the meeting. It was ridiculous.But Carl moved faster. He caught her wrist, his deep voice coaxing, "It’s not the official meeting yet. Just let me finish drying your hair."Amelia

    Carl’s body stiffened.His gaze locked onto her, his dark eyes unfathomable.He leaned in, so close that the tip of his nose almost brushed against hers.The sensation in his palm made his Adam’s apple bob unconsciously.The autumn wind howled outside the capital, but inside the room, it was eerily quiet.She frowned slightly—perhaps she disliked the coolness of the prayer beads around his wrist.Carl watched her, his side profile exuding a dangerous allure.Refined, striking, and utterly unreadable.So different from his usual self.He lowered himself further, his fingers tracing her face as he murmured in a deep voice, “You really have no sense of danger.”Not even he could predict what he might do next.And yet, she slept soundly, unconcerned.His eyes roved over her delicate features before his lips inched closer.The hand resting beside him clenched slightly, as if restraining himself.Deep in his gaze, a faint red glimmer flickered.As his breath hitched, the prayer beads on his

    Everything Carl had done in the industry proved one thing—he was not someone to mess with.Ruthless. Calculating. Deadly.He might look frail, but the people he dealt with were the true titans of power.Yet somehow, in front of his little sister, he became… harmless? Gentle?Fake! He’s obviously faking it!No brother in the world would ever approve of their sister’s boyfriend.Sebastian was no exception.Especially since this guy had once broken off the engagement!Everything else, he could accept.But Carl acting all soft and considerate around his sister? That was terrifying.This wasn’t how he handled people.Noticing Sebastian’s gaze, Carl turned to meet his eyes.His deep, fox-like eyes were unreadable—dark, bottomless.“I understand if Sixth Brother has an issue with me,” Carl spoke first, striking before the other could. His voice was calm, carrying a soft sigh, tinged with a hint of guilt. “I was wrong in the past. Maybe it’s because I never played with him as a child… or perh

    The other two nearly fainted on the spot, quickly hiding inside the amethyst pendant, too scared to come out.Everyone around the Master is a terrifyingly powerful existence...They couldn’t help but worry—would their presence, as malevolent spirits, affect the Master’s long-term fortune?But after seeing Chaos—they decided to keep quiet.After all, if the Master was bold enough to raise Chaos, she probably didn’t care about a little fortune imbalance.Meanwhile, Elijah sniffed the air, noticing a new scent on his boss.It smelled delicious.He instinctively rubbed his belly, then tilted his little face up, eyes locking onto the amethyst pendant, making hand gestures toward it.Amelia understood what he meant and pinched his soft, chubby cheek."They’re your little siblings now. You can’t eat them. Understood?"Can’t eat them?!Food can become siblings?Elijah’s tiger-like little face scrunched up.Fine. He’d reluctantly agree for now—he could always find another opportunity later.Af

    Amelia patted Elijah’s head and met Sebastian’s gaze."Sixth Brother, Elijah is my little brother."My little sister’s brother? That means he’s my brother too!Sebastian’s mindset shifted in an instant. He grinned at Elijah, just about to say something—When Carl suddenly turned Elijah around, revealing the QR code on his back."Elijah doesn’t speak, so I’ll speak for him. He likes money."Elijah usually disliked Carl.Something about the man’s presence always made him feel suffocated.That feeling was intangible—he couldn’t quite describe it.He just didn’t want to deal with him.Unfortunately, his boss was clearly blinded by good looks.Elijah had already asked the women on set about this.Apparently, his boss never showed interest in men, yet she was suddenly indulging this one.Clearly, she was captivated by his beauty.At first, Elijah wasn’t optimistic about this relationship.But as hacker L, he decided to do some digging—turns out, the Jenkins family was loaded.That was a plu

    "Very handsome."Ruby, with her elegant demeanor, spoke in a slightly hoarse voice.She hadn’t expected that her youngest son, upon seeing her, neither showed fear nor questioned why she was here.Instead, he naturally stepped in to help her.She was deeply moved.Meanwhile, Sebastian casually placed the milk tea on the table and turned to the dumbfounded young starlet and makeup artist."Take your time with the milk tea."His gaze locked onto the young starlet."Being an idol doesn’t mean thinking you're above others.""You should be grateful that cup of milk tea didn’t land on my mom’s face.""Otherwise, you'd never survive in this industry again."Ruby wanted to stop him—such direct words would only invite trouble.But Sebastian didn’t care."Mom, I was a rookie once too. Back then, I had to suck it up and endure everything on set. Look at her—she even mocks the staff.""I… I…" The young starlet’s face flushed red with embarrassment.The other crew members were watching.She had in

    In general, new assistants in the industry are given menial tasks.Especially those assigned to the outer edges of a set—they’re basically at everyone’s beck and call, running errands back and forth.Ruby had been deliberately pulled away by Elijah earlier, so she had no idea what had happened during the program recording.Elijah had acted strangely, doing everything possible to keep her from entering the inner set.It was only after she returned that Ruby found out her son was one of the guest participants.Now, with police cars outside and people constantly coming and going, she set down the milk tea that had been specifically requested by some celebrities and decided to ask around in the break room.“Excuse me, little sister, can I ask what happened on the show? Where’s Kina? Is he safe?”The so-called “celebrities” she had been delivering milk tea to were actually internet influencers from the same company, filming vertical short dramas in the adjacent studio.Sometimes, the small

    Sebastian’s eyes were already red with anger.“little sis, who is this Environmental Energy master you’re talking about?!”“We’re still investigating.” Amelia’s voice was calm and steady. “Sixth Brother, I’m telling you this because I don’t want you to act impulsively. The Earthly Fiend Array isn’t something an ordinary Environmental Energy master can set up. The person behind this must be on par with Master Cloudwalker.”Carl had been silent all this time. But upon hearing this, his eyes flickered with interest.“On par with Master Cloudwalker? That significantly narrows it down—not many fit that category.”“There aren’t many officially registered,” Amelia replied, pausing briefly. “But there could be others operating in the shadows—we’re still looking.”“That array was strange,” she continued. “Rather than simply bringing misfortune to the Cromwell family, it seemed more like someone was trying to steal the Cromwell family’s fortune.”Carl’s eyes narrowed, exuding an air of noble y

    Sebastian instinctively took a step back.The reason he had stayed away from home for so long—was fear.As a child, he had tried to make his mother happy by bringing home good grades.But by then, she was already sick, her emotions unstable.He had expected her to hit him. He would have preferred that—at least then, she would have reacted.Instead, she had looked at him like an empty doll, staring blankly outside as she asked, “Why didn’t you pay more attention? Did you really have to eat that candied hawthorn?”Then, she had started crying.Sometimes, she even hurt herself.The doctors diagnosed her with depression and warned them not to trigger her condition.Anything or anyone that might worsen her state had to stay away.Over time, her condition deteriorated—she lost hair, grew frail.Following medical advice, he and Fifth Brother avoided appearing in front of her.Then, their father brought that sponsored student home. At first, their mother had resisted fiercely.Sebastian still

    In the Earthbound Array, Amelia understood better than anyone how difficult it was to hold onto oneself. The person in question had already sacrificed too much—she didn’t want any more rifts in their family.As soon as Sebastian heard that his little sister wanted to introduce him to someone, he wasted no time. With a hat, sunglasses, and a mask in place, he showed up in front of Amelia, looking a little nervous.But his actions were quick—he handed over a black card in an instant.“Little sis, this is for you!”Sebastian had never been this straightforward before.In all of New York’s elite circles, he was known for being aloof and untouchable. The only two times he had lost his temper, he had beaten people up with a cold face.Everyone knew that if there was one person in the industry you shouldn’t provoke, it was the Cromwell family’s domineering troublemaker.Even Spencer and his group only dared to gossip about Amelia behind her back, never to her face. And that was because of Se

    Carl noticed her staring and raised an eyebrow slightly. "If you keep looking at me like that, I’ll think you’re about to charge me for medical fees again.""Medical fees?" Amelia didn’t immediately follow.Carl lifted a hand, touching his neck. He let out a soft chuckle, his voice so pleasant it was almost unnatural.That’s when Amelia finally saw the markings spreading down his neck.A series of Sanskrit symbols. To the untrained eye, they might look like tattoos.But in reality, they were a form of spirit-binding. Right beside them was the imprint of a red spider lily.Because the markings extended downward, and since he always wore collared shirts, she had never seen them fully before.Now that she had noticed, she wanted a clearer look. Without hesitation, she grabbed him and lightly pulled at his collar.It was well known—the red spider lily bloomed along the path to the underworld, guiding departed souls toward peace.Its meaning? The gentleness of a demon.Most people wouldn’t
