Harmonia’s words startled Rio, and he quickly stepped on the brakes. Harmonia then got out of the car and opened the driver's door.“You, get out of the car.”Rio jolted and quickly got out of the car.“Miss Marsh?”“Sit in the back.”After saying that, Harmonia got into the driver’s seat directly. While adjusting the seat, Rio had already bowed several times toward Dimas and sat in the back.Harmonia then stepped on the accelerator, and the luxury car zoomed out! She maneuvered the steering wheel, and the speed never decreased on the rugged mountain road—turning it into a Formula 1 racetrack!The speed of the car skyrocketed!Rio could not keep up, and he screamed in fear!Soon, they left the mountain road and reached the mine. Rio clung to the front passenger seat throughout the journey, and as soon as the car stopped, he rushed out and vomited.Dimas remained composed, got out of the car, and noticed Rio staggering with light steps. He then deliberately leaned against the
Doubts?How shameless.What the netizens said was all true. If one was acknowledging the facts, where did the doubt come from?Harmonia casually created a Twitter account with the name ‘Billionaire Lady’ and entered Luna’s live broadcast. She saw Luna wearing a sailor uniform that showed her tummy, and the sea breeze blew her few strands of bangs, revealing her teary red eyes.She was praised as a goddess by the geeks who would rather stay indoors. Now that she was wearing a sailor uniform that exposed her tummy and crying miserably, she truly looked pitiful.Male fans in the live broadcast room became excited and automatically formed the ‘Luna Army’, and they sent various comments to comfort Luna. They also sent all sorts of gifts to her in her live broadcast room. They even responded and countered some of the doubts of the passers-by fiercely, telling them to get out of the live broadcast room.When Luna saw this, she hurriedly spoke to calm them down.“We are all just like
Tens of thousands of netizens flooded the live broadcast room. When they saw Harmonia, who did not have any makeup on and had casually tied up her long hair, each one of them entered the ‘licking the screen’ mode.“Is Harmonia’s beauty real? She has shown me what 'a gift from heaven' means…”“She is beautiful. She has such flawless skin and completely invisible pores!”“Harmonia, have you ever considered entering the entertainment industry? You will definitely be one of the top popular artists with your looks!”-After being surprised by Harmonia’s appearance, everyone was looking forward to her fighting with Luna’s live broadcast room. Unexpectedly, compared to the neighboring live broadcast room where Luna was sobbing with snot and tears, Harmonia seemed to be enjoying a peaceful life as she started introducing stones. She even took the jade stones from the old jade mine, marked them with numbers using a marker, and posted the link in the live broadcast room.The entire int
“I am her tool now.”The live broadcast room was buzzing once again!He was holding the phone and was unable to show his face, so wasn’t he just a tool? Harmonia was annoyed and raised her eyes to look at Dimas. However, Dimas smiled freely and raised his brows as he asked, “Can’t I speak? Okay, I’ve got it. I'll just follow your lead.”The live broadcast room burst into excitement once more.Harmonia was completely speechless. It turned out that a gentleman could be invincible when he acted in a domineering manner. However, she could not say anything either. If she said one more word, it would lead to all kinds of imaginative speculations from netizens. Harmonia began to introduce several other stones. Dimas did not say anything more. The camera was stable, but it didn't focus on her beautiful side profile. Instead, it focused on those stones, allowing everyone to almost see the ‘pores’ of the stones.The comments piled up like crazy. They wanted to see the beauty, not look
Soon, it rushed to the top of the charts! Upon taking a closer look, it was an account verified by Sweet Potato with just two words in the account name: Absalom Terran.The atmosphere in the live broadcast room became chaotic once again.Oh, no! The ex-husband was here!Before the onlookers could recover, another verified account appeared with just two words in the account name: Hector Marsh.My goodness! The ex-boyfriend was here too!The ex-husband, ex-boyfriend, and current boyfriend were all gathered in the live broadcast room! It was like a large-scale arena of conflicts!The live broadcast room went wild, destined to never calm down! Comments began calling for the young lover, Mr. Martinez, to quickly register an account and spend money to outdo the ex-husband and ex-boyfriend!-Harmonia did not expect Absalom to come, and she also did not expect that her brother would show up as well. The two of them started competing fiercely, neither letting the other take the lead.
Who was this user currently competing for the top spot with Absalom? Where did they come from?Compared to her brother and Absalom’s verified Sweet Potato accounts, this user did not even have a profile picture. Even their username was just a series of letters: FMYL. She knew FEG meant ‘Forever Eternal God’, but what did FMYL stand for? It was probably just a random string of letters.Harmonia appeared in the eyes of the onlookers once again, and the comments started rolling rapidly! Everyone was speculating about who FMYL could be!Harmonia watched the comments rolling quickly, and the discussions were getting lively. There were two conclusions now. Some speculated it was another one of her ex-boyfriends, whereas others guessed it might be Dimas.Her brother was also referred to as her ex-boyfriend because of speculation from the public. She did not have any ex-boyfriends at all, so only the second guess remained. Harmonia subconsciously looked at Dimas, who was holding the ph
FMYL’s ranking successfully surpassed Absalom, ranking first on the chart! As the live broadcast ended, the leaderboard appeared as well. The leader with the gold medal was FMYL. The one holding the silver medal was Absalom, and Hector held the bronze medal.This ranking could no longer be changed. Harmonia and the netizens who stayed until the end in the live broadcast room saw this ranking! The only calm onlooker was probably Rio because he had already noticed his boss’ hand. As a thoughtful person in life, there were certain professional qualities he had to possess when shipping a couple.He took out his spare phone, zoomed in, and clearly recorded his boss’ hand that was behind his back as well as the astronomical sum that exceeded thirty billion dollars on the screen!When Harmonia was saying goodbye, he had tapped the screen decisively with his slender fingers, and the thirty billion dollars was invested firmly. Rio watched the video countless times, savoring it with a b
FMYL: ‘Fifteen years and five months.’Netizens: ‘Wow! You remember it so precisely?! That's true love!’Second most popular comment: ‘Why are you following Hector Marsh and Absalom Terran’s Twitter accounts?’FMYL: ‘Comprehensive monitoring of my rivals' movements.’Netizens: ‘I'm speechless!’Dimas put away his phone and looked at Rio, who was sitting aside and happily drinking a cold beer. He walked over, and the twilight's glow was mostly obscured by his towering figure.Rio felt the terrifying aura and gradually raised his head, and his smile froze.“Hey… Hehe, sir, do you want a beer?”“Hand over your phone.”Rio was so frightened that he handed over his phone.“Your spare phone,” Dimas emphasized.Rio was startled. He knew that his boss must have seen him secretly recording a video. However, he had no other choice but to hand over his spare phone obediently now. Rio took out his spare phone from his pocket and trembled as he handed it over to Dimas. Dimas turned on
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
