Chapter 149 So Cheap

Penulis: Night Eleven
If Landon seemed indifferent before, he now had a hint of a smile on his face.

"Nope." The usual aloof-looking Landon didn't seem to look that intimidating now. "Barry, pay up."

Barry nodded and quickly took out his credit card.

"Remember to pay more." Although Landon's voice was calm, it didn't mask the fact that he seemed to be the one in control.

Aria glanced at him and back to the obedient Barry. "Are you two even friends?"

Landon didn't hide it from her. "He's a colleague from another branch."

"Yes. We're colleagues." Barry straightened his posture.

Aria didn't think much of it. "I don't take credit cards, but you can pay to my account here."

Barry glanced slightly to his right. "How much should I pay?"

"You're going to ask for your friend's opinion on how much you should pay?" Aria grinned teasingly.

Barry immediately transferred 100,000 over. To him, this shouldn't be too much or too little.

He had considered this amount carefully, ensuring it fell within the range of

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 2132 Not Permitted

    The sensation spread along Elijah's veins with a prickling numbness. Almost immediately, that numbness turned into searing pain, as if countless steel needles were stabbing into his nerves at once.Elijah started to convulse. He clenched his teeth as beads of sweat rolled down his pale face. Seeing this, Lirio increased the voltage. "Talk. Did you take part in organized sexual misconduct?"The current rampaged through Elijah's body like a venomous snake. His consciousness blurred, and a few chaotic images flashed through his mind. He could see the women's ugly faces, Roan's triumphant smile, and the pain of rubber batons striking his body. Yet through it all, he never forgot his bottom line."I… I didn't do it!" Elijah forced out the words between ragged breaths, each syllable squeezed painfully through clenched teeth."How dare you continue to lie!" Lirio shouted, turning the current up to its maximum."Argh!" Agony swallowed Elijah whole. It felt as if he had been thrown int

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 2131 Mindshock Protocol

    Putting the trolls' remarks aside, a hint of relief flashed in Aria's eyes as she read the heartfelt comments. As long as some people were willing to think rationally, the public opinion battle wasn't lost.Meanwhile, Elijah was taken to the interrogation room in the Janovin Police Department. The light inside was too harsh, and the air was filled with the stench of disinfectant and tobacco.A metal table, cold to the touch, was set in the middle of the room, with nothing but bare walls on all sides. What was more, there were no windows, making the room feel suffocating under the blinding light of the overhead bulb.Elijah was forced to sit on a metal chair. His wrists were bound by handcuffs, locked to the metal rings beneath the table. His mind had slowly cleared, but the drug continued to drain his strength and make his head throb. It was no wonder Roan said it was good stuff from overseas. It lasted far longer than it should have.Elijah slowly raised his head and looked at t

    "Aria, do you know about the mess revolving around Elijah?" Warren asked, concern thick in his voice. "Someone told me about it earlier. I have faith that he'd never do something like this, but everyone on the internet is condemning him."In fact, someone also leaked the news about who he really is. It's obvious that whoever is behind this is targeting our family."Aria responded calmly, "I'm aware of it. The police officers have arrested Elijah.""Looks like this is a big trial for our family," Warren said with a sigh. "I'll figure something out and see if I can bail him out.""Grandpa, don't do anything right now. Let me handle it," Aria disagreed, her voice calm and collected. "I'll clear Elijah's name and make sure Carver Group won't be affected."Warren fell silent for a brief moment. "Okay. I'm leaving the company in your good hands. If it truly comes to a point of no return…""It won't," Aria interrupted him, her tone resolute. "Get some rest, Grandpa. I'm going to deal wi

    As it turned out, Roan had his team of gossip accounts on standby, and they sprang into action the moment the obscene video featuring Elijah was uploaded.Aria's voice was frigid. "Talon, bring him to me."Talon nodded in response. He vanished in a blur and reappeared next to Roan. He picked him up from the floor and tossed him in front of Aria"What do you think you're doing?" Roan roared.His expression carried a hint of fear, but he stubbornly fought to remain composed."This is my private villa. You two invaded my home and beat up my subordinates. I'll get you all arrested!""Arrested?" Aria asked as she looked down at Roan. "Getting the police involved is no longer enough for this. "You've crossed a line, and the entire Carver family will make you pay for it. Once I'm done cleaning up this mess, you will get what you deserve.""Anyone can talk tough!" Roan retorted.He was fired up when he realized he would be unharmed for now. "Elijah won't be able to shake this off for

    "What's on your mind?" Landon asked.When he noticed Aria spacing out, he stopped feeding her porridge and touched her cheek ever so lightly.She shook her head as she came back to her senses. "Nothing."No sooner had Aria finished speaking than the cultural relic in her hand suddenly began to warm. Before she knew what was happening, a thread of golden light spilled out, circling as if it were sentient, forming a soft arc of light in midair."What's that?" Aria asked, her eyes widening. Without thinking, she wanted to sit upright, but Landon held her down by the shoulders. She turned to look at him, only to see his gaze harden abruptly. The golden light was reflected in Landon's pupils, and his emotions were unfathomable. His fingers tightened almost imperceptibly, and his Adam's apple bobbed ever so slightly. His expression was nearly impossible to read."Did you see it? A golden light spilled out of the cultural relic," Aria said somewhat anxiously, the relic in her hand st

    The smile on Roan's face immediately froze. Then, it was replaced by a dark, murderous glare. He slammed the wine glass onto the coffee table, sending red liquid spilling over the edge and leaving a dark stain on the expensive imported carpet."You're still not taking the role?" Roan sneered, tapping the armrest of the couch aggressively as he spoke. "Elijah, how are you still talking tough at a time like this? Let's see if you can still be this stubborn after I force this down your throat!"In the next moment, Roan pulled out a transparent plastic bag containing a yellowish powder. It gleamed eerily under the crystal chandelier.He shook the bag in front of Elijah, not bothering to hide the wickedness in his tone. "Do you know what this is? It's a top-tier aphrodisiac. Tasteless and odorless. Just a bit of it, and you'll be overwhelmed with unbridled lust in less than half an hour."Elijah's gaze sharpened, his already chilling presence tightening into palpable menace with every p
