Harmonia immediately shone a light over it to check the words. She found them quite familiar and felt as if she had seen them before. Those carvings were quite old, but Harmonia was certain that they were not originally part of the mural. Were those words from the ancient civilization who lived in the land a long time ago?There lived an ancient civilization that used a different language compared to their modern tongue, and all traces of the language were practically gone at this point in time. If this was really the language of the ancient civilization, why would it appear in the Empyrean Tower, which was built even before the ancient civilization?Harmonia had also read documents and literature reviews of the Empyrean Tower before and knew that there were no records of the Empyrean Tower being rebuilt or reconstructed during the time of the ancient civilization. “Monia, what are you looking at?” Louis could not help much and could only distribute water to the people. Har
It was night. The construction team removed the mural on the west wing and delivered it to Riverside Residences Area 1.Harmonia set up a lab in the reconstruction department and equipped it with all sorts of high-end equipment. She turned on the shadowless lamp to inspect the carved words in the corner. Then, she copied the words onto a piece of paper. When she had the chance, she would ask around for an expert. Perhaps they could make sense of the words. Then, Harmonia put away the paper and used a microscope to inspect the mural. “Boss, it’s impossible to fix the mural.”After all her employees inspected the mural, they shook their heads and said that it was impossible. Harmonia frowned. There was indeed no way to repair the burnt parts. But she believed that she could still save the other parts. She might not necessarily be able to repair the entire thing, but at the very least, she could make it look not as horrible as it currently was. Mural reconstruction was
“Monia, Luna is up to no good again!”Alessia showed her tablet to Harmonia. “The Terran family hired a famous public relations company to make her public image become better! Word about this has already spread within the journalism industry.“Check out this article to restore her public image. I have to admit, it’s written really well.”Harmonia took the tablet and read the article. First, it verified Luna and Absalom’s relationship. It also stated the reason why Luna took her prenatal checkup at one of the private hospitals the Terran family invested in.It was because their families were good friends, and Absalom was showing his concern for her by letting her do the checkup at the hospital. Everyone in the Terran family knew, and the article also implied that Harmonia knew about this. Then, they clarified why Luna took the abortion medicine. It was because she had been having an ectopic pregnancy. The article also indirectly implied that Harmonia was a horrible person to
Mr. Smith immediately understood what she was trying to do and nodded while smiling. “Yes. My daughter LOVES this brand and is always wondering why Marsh Corporation hasn’t bought it yet.”“We’ll do as she wishes, then.”Harmonia handed a card to Mr. Smith and let him handle buying over Lo.Miss. “Once you buy the company, let her choose whatever clothes she likes and put it in my tab.”“Alright, Ms. Marsh.” Mr. Smith took the card and went off happily to carry out his task. Once Harmonia decided to advance her career, no business person in Nilus City could compete with her. Then, he thought of Absalom, and Mr. Smith scoffed before he grumbled, “Bah! Sc*mbag!”…After Luna was announced to be Lo.Miss’s brand ambassador, articles trying to improve her public image popped up like mushrooms after a shower. No matter what, the Terran family did hire a famous public relations company, so their promotional accounts and ghostwriters would never do shoddy jobs. Even though ther
The security guards could tell that Harmonia and Absalom were both rich and powerful. They were not ordinary people. But there was a security camera in the elevator, and it recorded what had happened just now. Harmonia had also pressed the alarm to call for help, so their voices were also recorded. With evidence, the security guards could just let the police take care of this. Hence, the security guards asked Harmonia, “Miss, do you want to call the police?”Harmonia smirked and walked over to Absalom. Even though she was much shorter than he was, her cold presence was not to be trivialized. She cast a glance at Absalom and said coldly, “Mr. Terran, I have witnesses and evidence. I can call the police and even sell this story to the media. If I do, how do you reckon Terran Construction’s stocks will look like tomorrow when the stock market opens?”“You’re threatening me?!”Anger raged in Absalom’s heart. He growled, but Harmonia ignored him. “You said I lied and that I
[I heard that you’re in Seadale.]When Harmonia saw Dimas’s message, she composed herself. Then, she slotted the key card into the power socket, and the room lit up. She replied to him. [Yes. How did you know?][I was asking for the progress of the table, and Mr. Perez was there.]So, Louis told him. Just when she wanted to ask him whether he was satisfied with the progress of the stable, he called her. Harmonia was caught in an awkward spot not knowing whether she should answer his call or not. If she had not replied to his message, she could pretend as if she had not seen his message, but she had instantly replied to him…Harmonia could only answer the call. “Have you eaten?”His voice was like a hammer that struck her heart. “Not yet…”Right then, someone rang the doorbell. “Let me just go answer the door.”She headed to the door and saw a hotel staff in uniform through the peephole. Harmonia opened the door, and the hotel staff bowed to her. It shocked her
“The door to the menace’s heart is shut, it seems.”His tone was calm, but there was a frown on his face as he held the watchtower’s railing. He tightened his grip around it, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged. “Absalom, you should thank your lucky stars that you’re my nephew.”…Harmonia did not know what was wrong with her. No matter how much she tossed and turned, she simply could not sleep that night. When the sun rose, she headed to Seadale Museum via a cab at the appointed time. The moment she got out of the car, she saw Absalom at the entrance. Absalom’s gaze landed on Harmonia. But Harmonia did not meet his gaze. She walked past him and headed to a museum staff. “Hello, I’m Harmonia Marsh.” She introduced herself with a smile. “Hello, Ms. Marsh, I’m Atticus Siatas, the vice curator of Seadale Museum.”After shaking each other’s hands, Atticus said, “The curator had a sudden engagement and asked me to bring you two around the museum first. Then, we’ll
Absalom had allowed it, or rather, Absalom had given those things to her!Even though Harmonia did not care about the stupid things between the sc*mbag and his mistress, that did not mean she would allow them to accuse her of something she did not do!Harmonia took out her phone and sent a message to a private detective. Every single affluent family had a powerful team of lawyers and a private detective agency behind them. When her family’s private detective saw that she had sent him orders, he immediately got to work. …Sea Hill Town was located within the scenic area of Seadale, and it was far away from the urban district. By the time they arrived in town, the sun was already setting. Ben was still on his way to Sea Hill Town, so Atticus made arrangements for dinner. Most of the town’s residents had already moved away. But some of them would only move by the end of the year, so they still served tourists. That was why the town still had some signs of life. Harmonia
