There was suddenly no sound from the side anymore.

Harmonia looked at the still screen of her cell phone.

One minute, two minutes-

Ten minutes passed.

He still hadn't replied.

Harmonia furrowed her delicate brows and sent a message: ‘?’

He replied: ‘Wait a moment.’

Harmonia was puzzled, so she sent another message: ‘?’

His response came: ‘I’m not done crying yet.’

Upon seeing these four words, she chuckled and replied: ‘My young lover is crying?’

He quickly replied: ‘A macho man is crying.’

Harmonia laughed again and replied: ‘I heard that the male striptease shows in Dairkth are especially popular and tickets are hard to come by?’

‘It’s just a rumor. Would anyone look good dancing topless?’

‘A macho man showing off his muscles would definitely look good!’

‘Do you want to see? I will strip.’

He knew that with Harmonia's personality, she would probably reply with six dots and then change the subject or stay silent. Unexpectedly—

Harmonia replied swiftly, ‘Sure! When?’

    In the dream, there was an ancient and picturesque long street, and the long road seemed endless. All that could be heard was the deafening sound of drums, and a man who was wearing armor and riding a spirited horse appeared. There was a two to three-centimetre-long scar on his face. Gloom enveloped him, and he exuded an extremely cold aura.He was keeping his distance and keeping strangers away, but there were countless people on both sides of the street.Harmonia saw him in the crowd.Brother?She kept calling him ‘Brother’ over and over again, but it was as if he couldn't hear her at all.There was a long army behind him, and the sound of wheels rolling echoed. Each time the wheels rolled, it felt as if it was rolling on her heart.A body wrapped in a grass mat lay on the wooden board.A gust of wind swept through, but the grass mat remained unmoved, showing the level of respect toward the body.However, a corner of the grass mat was blown open.She saw a string of redwoo

    “I wonder if my sister has a place for me in her heart, then?”Hector called her his sister just like he did when they were young, and even the tone was exactly the same. It carried the same gentleness with a hint of reluctance, but there was an undeniable indulgence in his tone.“Of course!” Harmonia still answered without hesitation.“In that case, I… I can rest assured.”Hector didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he simply pretended to be on a phone call, which became the best disguise.He then continued, “I know that with Dimas's status, you two need to endure a long battle in order to be together. So, you don't need to worry about Nilus City. What I can do for you is to ensure you have no worries.”Harmonia whispered, “Thank you, Hector.”“You apologized to me just now and now you're thanking me?”“I'm just trying to be polite.”Hector chuckled again and said, “Mom and Dad know that we're back. They dropped everything relating to the tea business and rushed back. Mom

    The couple never expected this.Hector, who had always been exceptionally attentive toward his daughter since childhood, turned out to have feelings for her that were more than the feelings a brother should have for his sister.“I wonder which man stole Monia's heart? She’s truly a brat that’s always causing trouble!”“Could it be… Dimas?” Ginevra became nervous and quickly looked at Safan.Safan shook his head, “How could that be? Dimas is busy opening up the Green Tea market in Dairkth, so when would he have time for romantic affairs with our daughter?”“So, Monia and Dimas don’t stand a chance?” Ginevra asked again.“It seems that way,” Safan replied.Ginevra sighed and said, “She fell for Absalom, which was an absolute mistake, and now, after finally climbing out of it, she’s falling into another trap?”“Falling into a trap? Although that bratty girl always causes trouble, how could she not have learned from her mistakes?” Safan reassured Ginevra.“In that case, is her cur

    Before she knew it, countless reporters swarmed toward her from everywhere!The bustling expressway rest area was suddenly overcrowded with people!Interrogative questions came fast and furious from all directions…“Miss, do you have anything to say in regards to becoming Ms. Kenwood’s competitor?”“Given your status and background, what do you have in you to rival Ms. Kenwood?”“Were you already aware of Mr. Martinez’s identity, which was why you desperately sought his support before he flew back? Is that your real motive?”Amidst the crowd of reporters, Harmonia spotted Nara standing inside the lounge.She was watching her through the windows with a cup of coffee in hand, eagerly anticipating the scene that was unfolding.That was when realization dawned on Harmonia.As it turns out, Nara had been behaving herself throughout the entire journey just to wait for her right here?The reporters continued cornering Harmonia with their eager questioning, the lights of their camera

    She put on an expression of anger, feeling smug inside about the prospect of scaring him.Dimas stopped in his tracks, blocking her from going forward.His eyes turned dark as he gazed at her.“Don’t block my way, Dimas Martinez. Step aside!”Was she throwing a tantrum? Could she get any more adorable than this?At the next moment, he “obediently” stepped aside.Harmonia was about to take a step in the direction of the lounge when, to her surprise, he grabbed her wrist.She looked up at him with arched brows. Before she knew it, he hauled her up into his arms at the next instant!“Dimi!” Harmonia instinctively yelped as her eyes widened in shock.He chuckled wickedly as his handsome face drew near to her exquisite features, whispering into her ear in a low, hoarse voice.“I was wrong.”A glint flashed past Harmonia’s bright eyes as she burst out into a chuckle.She then puffed her chest up and said arrogantly, “Do you admit your mistake?”He nodded. “Ms. Marsh, forgive me,

    Harmonia ignored her completely as she said, “Dimi, hug me tight. I feel a little cold.”Her sweet voice was so tender and mesmerizing.Dimas did exactly as he was told. “Do you still feel cold?”“I feel a little better than before.”Dimas hastened his footsteps and walked past Nara.Nara looked at him and called out, “Dimi… I want to talk to you.”Dimas stopped in his tracks.Nara looked smugly at Harmonia.“I’ve nothing to say to you,” Dimas said as he carried Harmonia into the lounge.The smug expression on Nara’s face froze. Some might have even mistakenly thought that her face had frozen over because she was wearing too little.Harmonia looked at the anger simmering in Nara and thought she should give her a taste of her own medicine.She deliberately rested her chin on Dimas’ shoulder and waved at Nara.Nara’s originally frozen face became even stiffer. She gritted her teeth in anger and turned to return to the lounge.Harmonia asked in a soft voice, “Dimi, is it real

    They were unable to open the door to the lounge! Harmonia turned around and looked at Rio, who was seated in a corner.“Ms. Marsh,” Rio greeted her with a nod before chuckling. Harmonia stepped forward to take a closer look and realized that Rio was tampering with the digital lock.He remotely controlled the digital lock and messed up its internal code to lock them all out.Nara was in big trouble this time.She was neither able to enter the lounge nor retreat elsewhere to safety. To make things worse, she was wrapped only in a thin jacket…The temperature outside had dipped to -4 Fahrenheit.Harmonia retracted her gaze and turned to look at Dimas with a sweet smile on her face.Dimas looked back at her, trying his best to suppress the overwhelming love he felt for her although his affections for her were still clear to see in the depths of his eyes.He turned his gaze toward Rio and Jasper.Rio immediately caught on, closed his laptop, and walked toward Jasper.He simply

    It was the time display! By the time Absalom had collapsed on the ground and was finally brought away, it was already more than half an hour since he had sent her away in another car out of the town.So… he had been trying to buy her as much time as possible.Harmonia had no idea and couldn’t even bring herself to imagine how he had managed to hold on during that half an hour and how he had managed to resist ten men all by himself.Over the past month, she would never have been able to imagine the scene of that rainy night.Yet now, she was witnessing every single concrete detail through the surveillance footage.She shut her eyes, her mind filled with the content of that letter.“I want to push my luck and ask one more time: Harmonia, can you please trust me? Even just a little.”As it turns out, he was ready to die, which was why he had tried to push his luck.Even though their five-year-long marriage had been a mistake, even if it had been the wrong person from the beginni

    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
