Harmonia received a call from Alessia and learned that she had secured a multi-billion investment from MIA Investment last night.

“So, this is your reason for getting drunk?” Harmonia asked.

Alessia chuckled, “Monia, you should know that the best place to discuss business is at the drinking table. Those old foxes are all shrewd, and there's no way around it if I don't drink.”

In reality, Alessia was well aware that as long as she asked, Harmonia would give her a multi-billion-dollar investment without hesitation. However, investments came with risks, and even as a wealthy woman, Alessia didn't want Harmonia to bear that risk.

Harmonia also knew that once she presented the multi-billion dollar investment, Alessia would definitely involve her in the shares and possibly provide a safety net for her. However, Harmonia didn't want to take a share of the pie. After all, it was Alessia’s hard-earned money. Both of them had each other’s best interests at heart.

    Dimas wiped his damp hair with a towel in one of his hands. The water droplets slid from his chest muscles to his abdominal muscles, finally falling on his black trousers. Liler looked at this tempting figure, hesitated for a second, and exclaimed, “Ahh! Don’t look at his indecent exposure!”As he spoke, he used a book to block Harmonia’s line of sight.Dimas casually threw the towel on the sofa, took a step forward, and took the booklet away from Liler. “What are you blocking for your sister-in-law? It’s not as if she hasn’t seen it before.” Harmonia was dumbfounded. When had she seen it?The next moment, Dimas held up the booklet to block Liler’s line of sight. “The one you should be blocking is yourself.”Liler was instantly petrified on the spot. After coming to his senses, he moved his head a bit and peeked out from behind the booklet. “Dimitri, I don't need to block myself, right? I'm also a man.”Dimas snorted coldly as he corrected him, “You? You’re a boy.”Liler

    He raised his eyebrows mockingly, and he had a stern and terrifying look in his eyes which emitted a sharp and cold light.He was not performing well? Pfft! Damn it.He quickly stepped forward and had already raised his leg to kick Rio directly before Rio could react. Rio knelt on both knees with a thump. Due to the inertia, he supported the ground with both hands, adopting a standard groveling position.Dimas took out his phone and sent a voice message on WhatsApp: ‘Rio's year-end bonus is canceled.’Upon hearing this chilling statement, Rio cried out loudly.Suddenly, footsteps approached. Madam Judd walked out of the elevator with the help of a servant. As the elevator door opened, she saw Rio in a groveling position, which startled her.“Dimitri, what's going on with Rio?”“He's training,” Dimas said calmly.“Oh, I see. It seems like this is indeed the way combat skills are practiced in television series,” Madam Judd nodded in understanding.Rio cried out even louder.M

    Under the usual circumstances, Harmonia would have already grabbed her arm and perhaps even used some bone-dislocating techniques to teach her a lesson! However, this time, she didn't retaliate. Instead, she immediately threw herself into Dimas’ arms.“Dimi, she's so fierce… She wanted to hit me even though I didn't say anything wrong. I'm so scared…” She was acting like a pretentious bitch to leave no way out for the pretentious bitch herself!Lulu was instantly dumbfounded. Dimas had already moved swiftly, tightly protecting Harmonia in his arms, gently stroking her soft hair. The emotions in his eyes surged, making it impossible for anyone to guess his current mood.The feeling of holding the young lady in his arms felt really good, but the next moment, a cold and icy light burst forth.When Nathan sensed that the situation was not right, he quickly approached, smiling as he said, “Mr. Judd, my daughter is really ignorant. She wasn’t trying to scare Miss Marsh. She was just maki

    Madam Judd was momentarily stunned and asked, “Why haven't I heard Rocco mention this matter?”Mr. Jeet quickly came to a realization. “Madam, I was focused on assisting Liler with his homework and forgot about this! I received a call from Mr. Rocco this morning. He said a friend would come to our house for some business matters.”“Oh? He’s coming to our house for business matters? What's this person’s name?” Madam Judd asked as she picked up a teacup from the table.“His name is Absalom Terran.”The next second, the teacup smashed heavily onto the coffee table.“I’m not seeing him! Send him away immediately and ask him to go back where he came from!”However, Absalom had already ignored the servants' attempts to block him and entered the living room.“If I tell you that Dimas Martinez, who is also known as your second grandson, Dimitri Judd, is not truly in a relationship with Harmonia and they conspired to deceive you, would you be willing to see me, then?”The moment these w

    The luxury car turned around and swiftly headed toward Judd Mansion. The old jade mine had entered the mining phase, and the old jade needed by Empyrean Tower was about to be obtained, but Absalom just had to come and cause trouble at this juncture“Absalom’s appearance may expose your identity,” Harmonia spoke about Dimas’ identity as Dimitri Judd. Dimas looked at her and said calmly, “I have a strong resemblance to Dimitri Judd, and aside from Liler and Grandma, all other Judd family members know about me replacing him. This was originally a matter that was entrusted to me by the eldest grandson of the Judds.” Harmonia nodded understandingly. So, that's how it was. When she had Mr. Smith investigate the Judds, apart from Liler’s multicolored punk appearance at that time, making it impossible to identify his features, Dimitri Judd’s photo had been left blank.It seemed that the Judds had gone to great lengths to prevent anyone from investigating Dimitri, thereby comparing him

    Strangely, she didn't see Absalom at all. Madam Judd was drinking tea while reading the contents of the small booklet. “Grandma.” The two of them spoke in turn.Madam Judd’s muttering stopped abruptly, and she looked up at them. “You rushed back after that brat, Liler, WhatsApp-ed you. Doesn’t this confirm that the two of you are not a couple? Miss Marsh, did you deceive an elderly woman such as myself?”Before Dimas could say anything, Madam Judd spoke up again and said, “Don’t say anything. I want to hear what she has to say.”Harmonia took a few steps forward and said apologetically, “Grandma, my purpose in coming here was indeed because of the old jade mine. Dimitri and I are not a couple, either… There’s nothing going on between us. I was the one who deceived you, and this has nothing to do with Dimitri.”Harmonia assumed full responsibility for this deception.Dimas suddenly furrowed his brows. After hearing Harmonia’s words, Madam Judd snorted several times, picked up

    “I will uphold the virtues of a man and never disappoint you.”“Mr. Martinez, it turns out that you’re from a men's virtue training class? When did you enroll?”“I enrolled after I got to know you.”“Remember to bring your nephew to the next class, then.”“He has no virtues, is beyond redemption, and can't be trained.”Harmonia was rendered speechless.At this moment, Liler poked his head out from behind the screen.“Grandma, am I also well-rounded in morality, intelligence, physical fitness, and labor?”Madam Judd glanced at Liler. “You’re a child who speaks without any restraint at all.”Liler was dumbfounded.“Grandma, I'm also your grandson. Why is it that Dimitri has been well-rounded since childhood, yet I'm accused of speaking without restraint?!”“I'm old and can't speak insincere words.”Liler was dealt another blow!Harmonia then asked Mr. Jeet for a piece of paper and a pen before swiftly writing three math problems and handing the paper over to Liler.“Sister-

    She vividly remembered the year she had turned six and fallen into the water. She remembered the boy who had saved her. At that time, her height had only reached his chest, and he had held her like a giant, protecting her tightly in his arms as he lifted her out of the water and pushed her toward the edge of the fountain pool.She still remembered the clarity in his eyes, almost as if worldly desires such as greed, anger, and ignorance, were irrelevant to him. He seemed like a divine being who had descended to earth.Harmonia stared at the pinky ring on her little finger and was lost in her thoughts. She thought about Absalom now and bit her lower lip. He shouldn't be in this state now.He had taken action to destroy things just because things hadn’t gone as he wanted? Hmph. Harmonia laughed, took off the pinky ring on her little finger, and tossed it into the drawer. She did not need it anymore. Happiness was something she should create for herself. As for safety, she would do

    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
