The small butterfly on the handbag was dazzling and eye-catching. The strap of the Hepburn-style short dress worn by Harmonia also had diamond-studded butterfly designs on her shoulders. One could tell at a glance that it was a set.

Among the crowd, socialites and noble ladies began to speak up one after another.

“This handbag belongs to her! I saw her holding it earlier.”

“Yes, we were just discussing how beautiful this handbag is!”

The next moment, the wealthy lady rushed to Harmonia and said, “I knew it! I was wondering why I got shoved when the power went out.”

The wealthy lady glared at Harmonia indignantly. Her words were sharp and aggressive, and they were filled with anger.

Tessy, who was aside, added fuel to the flames as she said, “I already told you that a poor person with no background is the most suspicious. The evidence is conclusive now.”

Discussions continued around them as they accused Harmonia.

Absalom wanted to speak up for Harmonia immediately when he hear

    There was an uproar at the scene. “Wasn't this pair of earrings part of Mr. Parish’s collection? How did it suddenly become Harmonia’s possession?”“That’s right! The earrings definitely haven't been sold yet. Otherwise, why would it be on Mrs. Stint’s ear?” “Besides, who is this handsome guy? I've never seen him before.”Whispers and murmurs filled the area with some questioning Harmonia and others questioning Dimas’ identity.In fact, even Harmonia herself was somewhat confused, but she speculated that this might be Dimas’ arrangement.Mr. Parish then stepped forward and smiled amicably. He approached Dimas and said, “Let me introduce to you, Dimas Martinez, the only son of a relative of mine.” Although no one knew which relative of Mr. Parish it was or which influential faction Dimas was connected to, Mr. Parish held a significant position in the upper class of Nilus City.Anyone he specially introduced must carry considerable weight. Who would be foolish enough to conti

    He did it for her sake? When had Absalom ever done anything for her sake? He had only ever considered the interests of his mistress, Luna, whom he mistakenly thought was the mother of his ‘child’.However, he was now saying that he only did everything for her sake—it was truly absurd! Harmonia looked at Absalom’s earnest expression and felt that he resembled someone who was applying screen protectors for cell phones. Her face was expressionless, but she was inwardly amused. He probably still did not know that the appraisal report submitted by Luna was fake and that the child in her belly was not his at all! His child’s biological mother was someone else.The person he had had sexual intercourse with that night was not Luna, but that woman was related to Luna by blood!Harmonia’s curled eyelashes fluttered slightly. Her cold voice sounded, “Mr. Terran, are you a dog? Did you come here from afar when you smelled my scent? Since you’re a dog with such a sensitive nose, you must be

    Mr. Parish appeared with a cane and said with a cheerful smile, “It's really lively here.” He then noticed Harmonia’s left and right hands, which were being held.“Young lady, come here, I have something to ask you.” Dimas was the first to let go as soon as Mr. Parish said these words. Absalom had no choice but to let go as well. Harmonia heaved a sigh of relief and quickly walked to Mr. Parish. “Grandpa Zov, what do you want to ask me?”Mr. Parish did not answer. He simply smiled and led Harmonia away. With the leading lady gone, there was nothing interesting left, especially since Mr. Parish had specifically appeared to intervene! Everyone looked away and dispersed one after the other. Dimas and Absalom stared at each other. The air around them was thick with tension!“Dimas, your so-called seniority is just in name.”“You pose no threat to me.”“You should understand that she is my wife!”After saying these harsh words, Absalom snorted angrily and walked away. Dimas looke

    “Write!”Harmonia uttered a monosyllabic word that left Rio sweating profusely. What should he write? Did she want him to sign something? He hadn't done anything wrong!Rio mustered up his courage and timidly looked down, only to heave a sigh of relief. It turned out she wanted him to write a delivery address.“What are you staring at? Didn't you write it last time?”“Oh, yes, yes, yes! Miss Marsh, I still remember that you bought suits for Mr. Martinez the last time!” Rio chuckled, patted his head, and picked up the pen. It seemed she was buying another gift for his boss. Great! Mr. Martinez seemed to have found a place in Miss Marsh’s heart! Rio genuinely felt happy for his boss. Harmonia frowned and asked, “How long has it been since then? If you've forgotten, you should consider getting treatment for amnesia.”Rio was dumbfounded.Soon after, Harmonia instructed the staff to deliver the goods according to the address Rio had written. She then left the scene.The event w

    Harmonia furrowed her delicate brows tightly. Her reaction was swift as she immediately turned her head! Absalom’s thin lips brushed against the strands of her hair by her ear. He had a particularly icy expression in his eyes. He held her face, his palm tightening as he shook her forcefully, “Dimas Martinez can be your devoted follower, yet you find my touch so repulsive? Harmonia, are you being fair to me?!”Harmonia was infuriated. She raised her hand and slapped his handsome face. “You’re asking if I’m being fair to you? Perhaps you should ask yourself if you deserve it first!” Absalom tilted his handsome face slightly. He frowned as he held Harmonia, intending to lift her, place her over his shoulder, and take her away by force. Suddenly—bang! A loud noise echoed in the vast underground parking lot not far from them.“Hurry, act fast!” A man's urgent voice followed immediately.Absalom and Harmonia realized something was wrong and hid behind a pillar. Several burly men p

    “Stop the car!”Absalom’s expression changed abruptly. “Do you know how dangerous this is?!”“I know.”“Harmonia, stay calm. I’ve already called the police!”This decision was indeed extremely impulsive from a rational standpoint! The safest approach would be to follow their car and wait for the police to arrive. However, Monia had her reasons for doing this.“When Mr. Parish was taken into their car, he was unconscious. He's an elderly man, and who knows what kind of drugs they used on him? Besides, we will be leaving the city once we pass the bridge. Can you guarantee they haven't set up an ambush outside the city? I know stopping the car is dangerous, that's why I asked you to get out of the car! Just follow my instructions, and you won't be risking your life!”This was her decision, and she decided to take a gamble, but there was no need to involve Absalom in the risk.Harmonia gripped the steering wheel tightly. While urging Absalom to get out of the car, she accelerated to

    “No!”“Don't!”“Dimi!” The exclamation burst out spontaneously!Harmonia rushed down from the car at the first moment, heading toward the broken guardrail. However, it was already too late for anything. She watched helplessly as the vehicle plunged into Peace River. Splash!There was a shocking splash!“Dimas!” Harmonia shouted his name, but her voice was quickly covered by the wind.There was no response at all. Her eyes turned red, and she bit her lip as she turned and rushed toward the off-road vehicle! If it weren't for them, would he have fallen into Peace River?! Harmonia did not care that they had guns, and every combat move she made was filled with anger and frustration. Absalom acted swiftly, engaging in a struggle with several other men!Just then, one of them aimed his gun at Harmonia. “Honey, be careful!”Harmonia, who had sharp eyes and quick hands, did a somersault and knocked the man to the ground.Bang!The gun was pointed into the dark night, firing

    “Young lady, my suit is ruined.”At this moment, Harmonia felt as if her words were stuck in her throat, and she could not speak up at all. She then turned around and saw him! His short hair was dripping with water. He was completely soaked, and there was a long slit on his suit, but it didn't affect his looks and presence at all. He looked at her with a playful expression in his eyes. He had clearly experienced a close call with death, but he didn't take it seriously at all. His first concern upon coming ashore was surprisingly about the suit?!Harmonia’s eyes turned red, and after a considerable effort, she finally squeezed out the words, “Dimas Martinez…” He smiled, quickly walked to her, and pulled her into his arms without any explanation at all. “Let me hug you. I don't even know if I'm dead or alive.”As soon as he finished speaking, his strong and powerful arm suddenly tightened, and he lifted her up slightly, letting her step on the surface of his shoes. He had notice

    Quinn was startled. “W-what?”“I wasn't locked up here because I ruined your father's business and he is seeking revenge on me.”“Why are you locked up here, then?”Absalom frowned and replied, “It's complicated. It's not something that can be explained in a short time, but if I'm rescued, it means that there will be one more piece of evidence against your father.”Quinn bit her lower lip. She understood.If he were rescued, her father's actions of injuring him and imprisoning him would no longer be a secret.“You're his daughter, and once he falls, you might not be safe either.”Quinn hadn't thought about it deeply before, but now, Absalom's words weighed heavily on her heart.Even though her father had never cared about her and was always distant and cold toward her, and even though her sister bullied her since childhood, every word and action showing contempt toward her, they were her family, and that was something she couldn't change.Moonlight shone into the cellar throug

    Absalom froze in place while holding the snacks at the sound of those words. “She… She answered the call?” His heart felt a sharp pain that hurt a million times more than the wounds on his body.That one word ‘aunt’ was something he didn't want to hear but couldn't deny. They were together, weren't they?Quinn continued to disinfect his wounds, not noticing his expression as she went on and said, “Yes. I've already told her about you. Don't worry, they'll definitely come to rescue you!”“I'm familiar with the paths at home. If conditions permit, I'll guide you when the time comes.”He snapped back to reality, rejecting her without a second thought. “No need. You've done enough for me already by saving my life.”Quinn looked at him and said, “No. I have to see you alive and rescued before I can feel at ease.”“Why?” He asked.She was puzzled. “What do you mean why?”“No one cares about my life,” His eyes dimmed with sorrow.He even wondered if it would have been better if he

    Castell looked at her. His gaze was devoid of warmth but rather, it was as indifferent as cold water.“Tomorrow is your sister's assessment day, and I've been invited to Snow Manor.”Quinn nodded softly and asked obediently, “Is Nara confident that she will win?”Upon hearing this, Castell snorted with great dissatisfaction, “There's no such thing as losing among the Kenwoods! She will definitely be the winner!”Quinn shrank back in fear when she saw the ferocity in his eyes, and she did not dare to say another word. She simply nodded, forced a smile, and said, “In that case, I’ll stay at home and wait for Dad and Nara to come back victorious.”Only then did Castell nod begrudgingly.“Okay, go to sleep now.”Quinn waved to him and then turned to leave.The helicopter slowly ascended, gradually disappearing into the night.After Castell left, Quinn entered the room under Mrs. Clint's watchful eyes.After about an hour, Mrs. Clint entered the bedroom, made sure Quinn was asleep

    Madam Judd's tone was gentle yet firm.Nara was stunned.“That’s impossible! How could I get it wrong?! You must have made a mistake!”She gritted her teeth at the last sentence.Madam Judd chuckled and said, “All three of these are fake.”Nara had an incredulous expression as she shone the flashlight on them again.“The jade has been soaked in strong acid, impurities washed away, then injected with glue. The methods of counterfeiting are becoming more sophisticated, reaching a point where it's hard to tell real from fake. To discern the authenticity of jade, one needs keen eyesight and extensive experience to make judgments. Just because you've seen more and possess more jade doesn't mean you understand more. Do you understand now?”The proud Nara was embarrassed by Madam Judd and couldn't find a way to save herself from embarrassment for a moment. “Understood,” Harmonia nodded.Nara had to reluctantly say, “Understood.”Madam Judd then immediately began the lesson.Though

    She had an uncontrollable nosebleed as blood kept dripping from her nose. She hurriedly bent over, and the drops of blood fell into the sink. Despite the flow of water, it was still extremely alarming.Harmonia did not know what was wrong with her, but after about a minute, she managed to stop the bleeding. She frowned, suspecting that it might be due to heatiness. With about fifteen minutes until nine o'clock, she quickly changed her clothes and hurried toward the appraisal room.Even before the training began, Jenell had already made arrangements for preparations at Snow Manor in advance. The tools in the appraisal room were already prepared.Harmonia and Nara arrived successively.At nine o'clock, Jenell appeared.However, the person who appeared with Jenell shocked Harmonia! It was actually her!Jenell introduced, “This is the jade appraisal expert, Madam Judd.”Harmonia and Nara greeted her. “Madam Judd.”Madam Judd nodded, pretending not to recognize Harmonia.“Let

    Both Jasper and Nancy were dumbfounded. Dimas simply stood there with a strong, calm, and intimidating aura, which made people tremble with fear even without him losing his temper. Jasper and Nancy obediently admitted their mistakes. One was in his early twenties, and the other was about to become an adult, but here they were, behaving like kindergarten kids, loudly promising to be model siblings in the future.Harris laughed heartily, his face showing an expression of ‘even these two rascals have their days’.Coincidentally, Mac walked out.“What’s going on?”Harris immediately explained, “The siblings were quarreling, but their father isn't here right now, so the elder brother stepped in as a father figure to educate them properly!”Mac burst into laughter, “I don’t want to say too much, but you should quarrel less with Nancy. She's not in good health, so you should be more considerate toward her.”After Jasper calmed down, he also realized his mistake deeply. He was born w

    “Two people, two favors.” Two was two and could not be less. Harris failed to play dumb. “You’re really good at calculating!”However, he had no other choice. After all, he could not handle these two people on his own! His head would ache whenever they argued. “Okay, two favors it is, then!” Harris agreed. Dealing with those troublemakers really gave him a headache.“Tell me, what two things do you want me to do for you, then?” Dimas said calmly, “I’ll leave Monia’s safety in your hands in ten days.”Harris was taken aback. “Huh? Isn't that girl at Snow Manor? With your mother there, her safety should be absolutely guaranteed.”“I’m still worried.”“Why don't you take care of her safety yourself, then?”As he spoke, Harris counted his fingers. He suddenly came to a realization.“In ten days? Wouldn’t that be the day when Harmonia and Nara will be taking their assessment together?”Dimas nodded.“You're leaving the base?” Harris understood and asked.“Yes.”“Where are you

    ‘You’re really killing me.’Harmonia whispered goodnight to him again, then stuffed her cell phone under the pillow as she prepared to have a good sleep.Dimas, who was at the base, also put down his cell phone at the moment. He looked at the simple layout diagram carved on the bottom of the box and turned on his laptop immediately to reconstruct it. At the same time, he called Mac to investigate Castell's second daughter.At first, Mac thought Dimas was joking. Everyone knew Castell only had one daughter, Nara. How could there suddenly be another daughter? Dimas then told Mac about the content of the phone call Monia had received. Mac immediately realized the seriousness of the matter. Before confirming whether Absalom was really in the wine cellar in Kenwood Mansion, he needed to confirm whether Castell really had a second daughter.After hanging up the phone, he acted quickly. Since she was a living person, there was no way she could not be traced.Mac's efficiency was

    The air seemed to freeze at this moment.The phone clearly displayed the ‘call in progress’ message, but it was as if it was affected by signal interference, and nothing could be heard until his cold voice broke the icy silence.“I will.”Harmonia heaved a sigh of relief, feeling worried as she said, “But rescuing someone from Kenwood Mansion won't be easy, right? That place is definitely a dangerous spot. How do you plan on rescuing him? Furthermore, we can't guarantee that this isn't a scheme orchestrated by Castell.”Having finally received news of Absalom, of course, it couldn't be given up on, but the authenticity of the news also needed to be confirmed.Dimas simply smiled without answering Harmonia's question but instead changed the topic and asked, “Monia, what did you have for dinner tonight?”Just as Harmonia was about to answer, a knock sounded at the door. Her heart jumped, and she acted swiftly and quickly tucked the phone under the blanket.She then pretended to be
