Harmonia looked at the plate of fried rice handed to her and then glanced at Dimas. She did not even bother to take the plate of fried rice from him.

“I really don't know. I don't know him, and I can't find any information about him.”

Dimas watched her hasty explanation, raised his brow, and pushed the plate of fried rice toward her again.

“Miss Marsh, it’s already so challenging to pursue you, but the difficulty has increased now. Can you grant me a privilege?”

It was impossible for her to make him give up. Despite facing countless challenges, the word 'give up' was never an option for him. After all, for the past fifteen years, she was his only hope and the sole reason he had endured and survived.

“What privilege?” Harmonia asked in confusion as she held the spoon and looked at Dimas.

“The privilege of allowing me to pursue you.”

Harmonia was dumbfounded.

She felt her ears heating up. She pursed her lips and changed the topic, “In the wilderness, money can't fill your stomac

    At this moment, a strong and powerful arm swept her into his embrace, letting her lean against his chest. The next second, his deep voice sounded, “How much did you drink?”When Harmonia heard this familiar voice, she raised her head and laboriously opened her eyes to gaze at the handsome face that was magnified before her. She pursed her lips and raised two fingers.“Two cans!”Dimas squinted and glanced at the nearby trash bag. When he saw that it was full of beer cans and no other alcohol, he ruled out the possibility of mixing drinks. He looked at her flushed face and suddenly chuckled, “You’re already this drunk after just two cans of beer?”Harmonia shook her head and tried to push him away with all her strength. “Who are you? Don’t underestimate two… two cans of beer! The alcohol content is very high!”“No, no, no! I'm not drunk. Who said I'm drunk? No, no!” Harmonia protested angrily. A person under the influence was the most defenseless. The young lady, who had shed her

    Harmonia was so drunk, and her brain had entered a shutdown mode. She nodded without thinking much about it. Dimas’ laughter deepened. The familiar glint in his eyes sparkled and ignited a light that belonged solely to the young lady. That light was called ‘crush’.A shooting star suddenly streaked across the sky. “A shooting star! Quick, make a wish!”Even though Harmonia’s body was swaying, she raised her hands promptly, intertwining her fingers, her left hand enveloping the right, ready to make a wish. But the next second, she let go of her hands as she shook her head lightly. “I don’t want to make any more wishes. They won't come true.” She said it with certainty, but also with disappointment.He lowered his gaze and asked in a deep voice, “You haven't made a wish, so how do you know it won't come true?”Harmonia shook her head. “I made a wish on a shooting star before, telling it my only wish, but it still didn't come true. The person who saved me will never like me. Absal

    “I’m scared.”He was afraid of the light extinguishing. He was afraid that he would no longer experience the taste of desire, anger, and obsession. He was even more afraid that the person he had been patiently waiting for might end up belonging to someone else.He carried her in his arms under the bright moonlight and tirelessly climbed up the hilltop. Harmonia leaned against his chest, and her even breaths indicated that she had entered a deep slumber.As he looked at her, his gaze was gentler than the moonlight. “Young lady, I touched the moon for you. It told me that your wishes made on shooting stars have already come true.”-Meanwhile, in the presidential suite at Janloon Hotel. “Mr. Terran, I still couldn't find out FMYL’s identity. Even the phone number he used for registration is untraceable,” Hunter said as he paid attention to the changes in Absalom’s emotions. Absalom was so angry that he grabbed the landline phone on the table and threw it fiercely. It crashed int

    “Mr. Terran!” Hunter exclaimed, “What happened to you?! I'll arrange for a doctor to come right now!”After saying that, Hunter hurriedly tried to take out his phone to make a call. Absalom lowered his gaze and forcefully knocked Hunter’s phone out of his hand.“Listen to me. If anyone other than you and me finds out about today's events, I will make sure that your own family is buried with you!” Absalom said sternly. Hunter nodded vigorously, “Mr. Terran, please rest assured. I've been working with you for many years, and I know the importance of keeping things confidential. I won't leak a word about this matter.”Absalom looked up, glanced at him, and then patted his shoulder several times. “Hunter, I'll remember this favor.”Hunter was so frightened that his legs were already weak and his shoulders were slumped. He shook his head repeatedly, “Mr. Terran, you’re being too serious.”Absalom wiped away the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand. He w

    Absalom’s gaze immediately fell on the floor beside him. Hunter had already thrown all the shredded paper into the shredder, completely destroying all evidence. Absalom’s bodyguard, Wayne’s voice came from outside the door.“Mr. Terran, Mr. Nathan Xander, the largest jade boss in Janloon, and his daughter are here.”Hunter opened the door of the presidential suite. Nathan looked at Absalom, who exuded a strong aura as he sat on the black sofa. He smiled and led his daughter, Lulu, into the presidential suite.“Mr. Terran, this is my daughter, Lulu Xander.”Absalom glanced at him and asked, “What's the matter?”“Mr. Terran, I know about your reputation in Nilus City, and I know you have extraordinary abilities. But as the saying goes, it’s difficult for even a capable person to deal with evil forces entrenched in their own territory. You will not be able to accomplish any difficult things without my help in Janloon.”Absalom sneered, lowered his crossed legs, and slammed them down

    The number of moons increased, and the more she picked it, the more she was enveloped in the moonlight. However, he was even brighter than all the moonlight. “Young lady, I’ve touched the moon for you. It told me that your wishes made on shooting stars have already come true.”Harmonia woke up from the dream, feeling a sudden warmth on her cheeks. How could the moon be touched? How could he touch it for her? Her wish hadn't been fulfilled either.Harmonia became more awake. Indeed, it was just a dream. Just as she was about to get up, she realized something was off. She lowered her head and looked at the long legs with nowhere to rest. She had actually slept in his car, using his legs as a pillow, and even the coat covering her belonged to him. She panicked for a moment and tried to sit up cautiously. But as soon as she moved a little, his arm held her down, returning her to her original position. “You’re awake?” He said, lowering his head and naturally reaching out his hand t

    “I…”A burst of excited shouts suddenly came from outside the car! “Miss Marsh, we found a good stone in the mine! Mr. Duncan took a look at it and said that it might meet your standards! He asked me to ask you to come down to the mine to take a look!” Harmonia shifted her gaze outside the car window and saw a miner in an old sweatshirt walking toward the luxury car.She pushed open the car door immediately, got out, and looked at the miner who was sweating profusely and smiling happily.“Miss Marsh, please come into the mine and take a look! You’ll definitely be satisfied with this stone!” Upon seeing Harmonia, the miner spoke even more warmly and handed her a brand-new safety helmet. Harmonia nodded, took the helmet, thanked him, and followed the miner toward the mine entrance. Just as Harmonia was about to step on the stones to enter the mine, she lowered her head and saw a gentleman’s hand about two to three centimeters away from her waist.Harmonia noticed the redwood be

    This… Was this blood?She trembled as she touched his neck and heaved a sigh of relief the moment when she felt his pulse. He still had a heartbeat; he was still alive!“Dimas, wake up! Can you hear me? Dimas, open your eyes and look at me! It’s me, Harmonia!” She kept trying to wake him up as she called his name and continuously pushed the stones off his body. When there was the last stone remaining, she clenched her teeth and tried to push it away with all her strength. However, no matter how hard she tried, that stone on top of him would not budge at all. All her nails broke, and an intense pain shot through her fingertips. This was accompanied by despair and helplessness engulfing her internal organs!“Dimas, you can't die… You can’t die…” She sobbed and saw drops of fresh blood falling from the corner of her eye. “You promised to protect me, so how can you die?!” His extremely weak voice sounded—Harmonia heard it. “Are you injured?” He asked her.“No, I'm not injured

    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
