Was there a power outage? There could not be such a coincidence.Just when Harmonia was lost in her thoughts, a warm hand grasped her slender wrist and pulled her into an embrace. Harmonia instinctively raised her hand to retaliate. A scent of ebony and sandalwood wafted over, wrapped in a strong masculine aroma, which was a familiar scent to her, but her movements could no longer be stopped. He suddenly wrapped his hand tightly around hers. Their fingers interlocked again in the pitch-black environment. โDimasโฆโHarmonia called out to him, but her voice was inexplicably soft. โHmm?โ He replied with a single-syllable word in a tantalizing tone. He lowered his head, and his hot breath fanned her cheek, causing her fair face to turn red.Fortunately, nothing could be seen clearly in the surrounding darkness.What she never expected was that he would touch her cheeks gently with his slender fingers. Harmonia hurriedly tried to retreat, but he was a step ahead of her and claspe

His movement was quick as he pulled her whole body toward him. She heard a loud noise while she was under his careful protection. Bang! He slammed his fist heavily onto the wall behind her. He needed a place to vent, but he was also worried about hurting her, so he pulled her into his arms.He wanted to protect her completely even when he was about to lose control. Harmonia bit her lip. She wanted to check his hand, but it was pitch black in the room, and she couldn't see anything. She could understand his feelings. If this happened to her, she would be even more out of control than he was now.This was his close relative. His own sister! How could he not lose control? How could he not break down?!โI lost my mother when I was young. My sister is the only close relative I have,โ he said.Harmoniaโs heart suddenly tightened.His elder sister was just like a mother to him. These words were self-explanatory.She didn't know what to say to comfort him, so she could only gently

Harmoniaโs eyes were instantly filled with shock!Her hands that were covering her mouth and nose trembled involuntarily, and two hot trails of tears rolled down her cheeks immediately.Even though she knew that Holly would eventually face such an ending, she never expected it to come so quickly and so suddenly. She could not accept it at all the moment she heard the news, so one could only imagine how devastated Dimas was. She bit her lower tip tightly and stared at Dimas, who was in front of her. His expression was icy, and he looked extraordinarily calm. His tall figure was still upright, but she noticed his hand gripping the sink countertop from the corner of her eye.She knew that behind this seemingly cold exterior, there was unbearable agony.However, she couldn't find a word to comfort him, nor could she find a sentence to console him. After all, there was no word or sentence in this world that could ease oneโs pain of losing a loved one. She walked up to him step by st

Dimas released the news of Hollyโs death to cause chaos among the Terrans. It was now the perfect time to acquire Terran Constructionโs shares. Upon receiving Harmoniaโs call, Mr. Smith, who had always been smart and cunning, understood her intention immediately before she even said a few words.โMiss, do you want to change your last name when acquiring the shares?โ Mr. Smith had always acted cautiously because he was afraid that the Terrans might suspect her. Harmonia replied decisively, โNo need. The last name, Marsh, is a common last name in Nilus City.โ Didn't the upper echelon mock her in the same way before? They said that she was a wild girl from the mountains who was powerless without any background and thought that she could establish a relationship with the influential Marshes from Nilus City just because her last name was Marsh as well. The last name, Marsh, might be a common last name in Nilus City, but the Marshes were unique!After the call ended, Harmonia headed

The next moment, the cold muzzle of a pistol was aimed at her lower back. โIt wouldnโt be a wise move for you to attack me here,โ Harmonia said calmly, maintaining her composure.Felix laughed and said confidently, โI just want to have a good chat with the extremely talented Miss Marsh.โAs soon as he was done speaking, his threatening tone suddenly sounded, โWalk inside and head to the lounge on the right! If you dare to make a sound, youโd only be risking your own life!โ His hand that was holding the pistol pushed hard against her lower back, making her feel the muzzle of the gun deeply.Harmonia then stepped toward the lounge. She and Felix walked one after the other, and everything seemed completely normal on the surface. The moment they entered the lounge, the bodyguards at the door quickly closed the door. Two bodyguards were standing at each corner of the lounge. Coupled with the two lackeys at the door, there were a total of ten bodyguards, which was a perfect round nu

Her expression changed in an instant, and she looked up at him with a serious expression.โDid you kill my grandfather?โโWhat are you saying?โFelix couldnโt come back to his senses for a moment, perhaps because he had done too many unethical things.โMy grandfather, Peter Rowe, didn't die in a car accident, but he perished in the fire at Empyrean Tower. Were you the one who killed him? Were you also the one who set Empyrean Tower on fire and took away the treasure box containing the Grand Blue Pearl?โ When Felix heard Harmoniaโs words, he suddenly stood up from the sofa and asked, โYouโre Peter Roweโs granddaughter?โ โYes,โ Harmonia affirmed. โHaha! Peterโs daughter got married quietly and disappeared. I didn't expect that he actually has a granddaughter?!โFelix burst into laughter, โThatโs right, I killed Peter, and I started the fire at Empyrean Tower. I was also the one who took the treasure box containing the Grand Blue Pearl! What can you do to me?โFelix was absolu

โWait!โ Felix shouted.Harmoniaโs heart pounded, and she quickly tried to open the door to rush out, but the door was already locked.โStop her!โ Felixโs voice rang out again.Several bodyguards rushed forward, grabbing Harmoniaโs arms and pressing her against the closed door. Harmonia struggled hard!Felix stepped forward quickly, taking a phone out of her coat pocket.โHarmonia, I almost underestimated you again! I didn't expect you to dare to record our conversation. You really came prepared!โ Felix snorted angrily, smiling triumphantly as he held Harmoniaโs phone, โBut remember one thing, the older, the wiser. Youโre playing these childish games in front of me. It seems you're really underestimating me!โWith that said, he threw the phone into the nearby fish tank in front of Harmonia. Water splashed, and the phone sank to the bottom of the fish tank.โHarmonia, I gave you a chance, but you didn't know how to cherish it. Since Iโve already got the 15% shares, I donโt need

A black recording pen was tightly bound to her thigh, standing out conspicuously against her fair skin. Using her cell phone to record was just a bluff.Harmonia smirked and gripped the recording pen in her hand tightly. -About half an hour before the funeral at 9:00 a.m., the upper-class mourners who came to offer condolences had already arrived. Expressions of condolences accompanied by the sound of mourning music were heard incessantly.Harmonia and Monica were responsible for receiving the condolence gifts. After the mourners presented condolence gifts and signed their names, Harmonia and Monica handed out tokens of appreciation to them.The prominent families in Nilus City were the Terrans and the Marshes, both of which were equally competitive. Now that the Terrans had suffered an unexpected incident, it was only natural for the Marshes to come to pay their respects. Everything had to be handled properly. As the current chairman of Marsh Consortium, Hector attended the

Quinn was startled. โW-what?โโI wasn't locked up here because I ruined your father's business and he is seeking revenge on me.โโWhy are you locked up here, then?โAbsalom frowned and replied, โIt'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.โQuinn 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.โYou're his daughter, and once he falls, you might not be safe either.โQuinn 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. โSheโฆ She answered the call?โ His heart felt a sharp pain that hurt a million times more than the wounds on his body.That one word โauntโ 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, โYes. I've already told her about you. Don't worry, they'll definitely come to rescue you!โโI'm familiar with the paths at home. If conditions permit, I'll guide you when the time comes.โHe snapped back to reality, rejecting her without a second thought. โNo need. You've done enough for me already by saving my life.โQuinn looked at him and said, โNo. I have to see you alive and rescued before I can feel at ease.โโWhy?โ He asked.She was puzzled. โWhat do you mean why?โโNo one cares about my life,โ 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.โTomorrow is your sister's assessment day, and I've been invited to Snow Manor.โQuinn nodded softly and asked obediently, โIs Nara confident that she will win?โUpon hearing this, Castell snorted with great dissatisfaction, โThere's no such thing as losing among the Kenwoods! She will definitely be the winner!โQuinn 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, โIn that case, Iโll stay at home and wait for Dad and Nara to come back victorious.โOnly then did Castell nod begrudgingly.โOkay, go to sleep now.โQuinn 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.โThatโs impossible! How could I get it wrong?! You must have made a mistake!โShe gritted her teeth at the last sentence.Madam Judd chuckled and said, โAll three of these are fake.โNara had an incredulous expression as she shone the flashlight on them again.โThe 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?โThe proud Nara was embarrassed by Madam Judd and couldn't find a way to save herself from embarrassment for a moment. โUnderstood,โ Harmonia nodded.Nara had to reluctantly say, โUnderstood.โMadam 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, โThis is the jade appraisal expert, Madam Judd.โHarmonia and Nara greeted her. โMadam Judd.โMadam Judd nodded, pretending not to recognize Harmonia.โLet

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 โeven these two rascals have their daysโ.Coincidentally, Mac walked out.โWhatโs going on?โHarris immediately explained, โThe 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!โMac burst into laughter, โI donโt 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.โAfter Jasper calmed down, he also realized his mistake deeply. He was born w

โTwo people, two favors.โ Two was two and could not be less. Harris failed to play dumb. โYouโre really good at calculating!โHowever, he had no other choice. After all, he could not handle these two people on his own! His head would ache whenever they argued. โOkay, two favors it is, then!โ Harris agreed. Dealing with those troublemakers really gave him a headache.โTell me, what two things do you want me to do for you, then?โ Dimas said calmly, โIโll leave Moniaโs safety in your hands in ten days.โHarris was taken aback. โHuh? Isn't that girl at Snow Manor? With your mother there, her safety should be absolutely guaranteed.โโIโm still worried.โโWhy don't you take care of her safety yourself, then?โAs he spoke, Harris counted his fingers. He suddenly came to a realization.โIn ten days? Wouldnโt that be the day when Harmonia and Nara will be taking their assessment together?โDimas nodded.โYou're leaving the base?โ Harris understood and asked.โYes.โโWhere are you

โYouโre really killing me.โHarmonia 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 โcall in progressโ 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.โI will.โHarmonia heaved a sigh of relief, feeling worried as she said, โBut 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.โHaving 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, โMonia, what did you have for dinner tonight?โJust 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
