"Of course." Joel also had a sharp eye.Kreil shuddered and spilled their entire plan in a panicked torrent. While he was clueless about the ordeal online, he confessed to arranging Carol, who claimed that her grandson had fallen into a coma after consuming medication prescribed by Aria. The mastermind, however, was Karen. She'd exploited Heartbound Hall's livestream to frame Aria publicly, ensuring many witnesses. Thus, even if Aria were innocent, her reputation would be tarnished. Kreil saw Aria as a powerless nobody. Fighting back would be seen as resisting arrest. Once detained, Kreil would deal with Aria based on her attitude. Otherwise, she could grovel before Karen until she was pleased. No matter her response, they were confident they'd strip her of her reputation. Yet, Kreil hadn't anticipated the secretary-general's involvement when they took Aria in.Without Joel and Lucas around, Kreil's plan would have succeeded. Upon hearing that, Frances grew furious.

The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 199 Ominous Feeling
Every like, every share on a post or video about StrawberryShortcake lined Ninemyth Entertainment's pockets. The more people discussed or berated her, the more money Ninemyth Entertainment made. StrawberryShortcake got involved in this mess without doing anything. Although she sued them for defamation, it was futile. It was impossible to track down the real person behind the fake IDs. Moreover, there were too many people insulting her. The law couldn't catch them all.In the end, StrawberryShortcake broke down and asked if they would only believe her if she died.At that, Ninemyth Entertainment seized this opportunity and intensified the rumors."She's just all talk. I bet she won't actually kill herself.""She can't take it, so she's putting up this act.""Go on and die, then."These comments, a relentless torrent, crashed down on her.Her parents were left bereft, mourning the loss of their daughter. Meanwhile, Ninemyth Entertainment reveled in their ill-gotten gains—unsca
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 200 Karen Gets Arrested
For some reason, the front desk failed to recognize Karen. Karen couldn't believe she had to ask permission to enter her own company.However, Karen was still happy. She finally got her hands on such a popular livestream account. She could earn money without even doing anything. Thus, she didn't take such a trivial matter to heart."You were too nice to that brat before. How could you give Aria money after chasing her out? Using this tactic, she'll realize she's nothing without our family," Karen said excitedly, placing her coffee cup on the table. However, Marshall was only concerned about one thing. "What did Georgina say when you went to see her?"Karen replied nonchalantly, "What else could she say? Of course, she wants to bail Aria out! The livestream account will be ours in an hour."Marshall refilled her coffee and further probed. "Then?"Karen sneered. "It's entirely up to us whether to release her. Whether she leaves with a police record depends on her attitude. If Aria
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 201 Come With Us
When Marshall saw police officers and Labor Bureau officials at his office, he nearly dropped the phone. He wondered what could have happened to bring them there. Trying to remain calm, Marshall walked forward. "Officers, you…"However, the police officers ignored him and flashed Karen their badges. "Are you Karen Layne?""Yes.""There's a case that requires your cooperation for an investigation. Please come with us."Karen thought they were referring to Aria's case. After all, Kreil did say someone would come looking for her as part of the procedure.Thus, Karen was not worried at all. She replied calmly, "Chief Thompson asked you guys to come over, right? Come and sit down. I'll get you some coffee. Thank you for all of your hard work. If it wasn't for you—"The police officer interjected with a straight face. "Let's talk about the case at the station. You have the right to remain silent."Only then did Karen realize that something was off. "Are you guys from Waterfront Poli
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 202 Chief Thompson Was Arrested
Karen had seen everything through the glass partition. Her head was in a mess. She could barely walk a straight line, only wanting to take a clearer look.However, the two police officers who brought her inside refused to let her look around. Instead, they brought her into another interrogation room. With a click, they secured her to the interrogation chair.Karen's face had turned pale. However, she remained resolute. "I want to see Chief Thompson."She knew what awaited her in the room. Thus, she continued, "If he doesn't show up, I won't say a word."To her surprise, the officers complied with her request. They exchanged glances with the surveillance camera as if waiting to receive instructions."That's an easy request. She wants to meet Chief Thompson, right? Let's bring him to her."Karen felt a sudden wave of fear when the door closed. Still, she reassured herself that everything would be fine as long as Kreil appeared. In the worst-case scenario, there was Jacob. He couldn

The lawyer was responsible for the Kent Corporation's business litigations. He only came over at Marshall's request to check on Karen. However, upon learning about the case, he immediately gave up. Politely bidding the police officers goodbye, he called his law firm to advise severing ties with Kent Corporation."It's not just a business conflict. This incident has the potential to ruin the entire Kent Corporation. Mrs. Kent provoked someone she shouldn't have, but I can't go into the details…"Usually, the stance of a law firm could predict what would happen next. It was just that nobody had caught onto it.Marshall remained oblivious to the urgency, focusing solely on taking control of the livestream.Before the Labor Bureau could complete its investigation, he hid in the washroom to call Georgina. His call was laced with thinly veiled threats. If Georgina continued refusing to sign the contract, he would ensure Aria paid the price."Mom, look at what the netizens are saying.

Even from a distance, those trailing him shivered under his oppressive bearing.They silently questioned the events that had triggered this rare display of raw emotion from the usually stoic Landon. Landon was on the phone for more than 10 minutes. Nobody dared to get near him. They could sense his oppressive bearing even through the glass.After ending the call with Moderator 007, Landon dialed Frances' number.Frances was still at the police station. The more he investigated, the more furious he felt. When he saw Landon's incoming call, anxiety and guilt gnawed at him.Maintaining a polite tone, Landon got straight to the point.

Thus, Frances reached an understanding with Landon.Meanwhile, Moderator 007 got the confidence he needed at the headquarters of Shark.

Landon cast a glance at Aria, curious about how much she actually knew about the stock market. She had always been modest about her knowledge, but he suspected there was more to her than she let on. The only one oblivious to Aria's true capabilities was Jett. Yet, he dared not refuse any request she made. Without hesitation, he tapped into his social circles, pulling strings where needed.Less than an hour later, Orion received word. A slow, chilling smile spread across his face. "So, the Grisham family wants to dip their hands into real estate too?"Arlo handed him a report. "Just as you predicted. It's not just real estate—Ms. Carver's making moves in the stock market as well. Fortunately, you already set a trap for Mr. Jett in advance."For the first time in days, Orion’s tension seemed to ease. A dark glint flickered in his eyes. "Fine. Let them struggle their way in. I don't care how they do it, but make sure the Carver family is crushed in the stock market.""Understood." A
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1398 You Cannot Win
Jett asked, "What exactly are you after? There's no need to bring down the Draycott family so quickly. It's not like you can win. Didn't you join the Chamber of Commerce to take things slow? You just arrived in Ludwiten. Why the rush?""Am I in a rush?" Aria asked. She wasn't after the mastermind behind the Draycott family. If she were, she would've tied Orion to the financial building and let people take pictures all day—no need for mind games.The situation was too tangled, too many people involved. The Draycott family had managed to cover up something as blatant as that incident at the bar. Someone had to be cleaning up after them.Finding a few scapegoats would have been easy, but Aria wanted more. She wanted to uncover everyone who had spread rumors about Fiona in the past.And for some reason, despite their focus on the Grisham family, it felt like they were up against the Carvers. Whoever was behind this didn't want the Carvers to regain control of the Chamber of Commerce.
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1397 Do Not Invest
Jett grew more agitated as he spoke, waving his hands as if he wanted to tear Owen apart. Aria promptly stopped him. Otherwise, passersby might think he was an escaped patient from Ludwiten's mental asylum.Owen had done many foolish things, which Aria only discovered after arriving in Ludwiten and conducting her own investigation. Warren carried guilt toward Clyde because of Owen. And while Jett was normally timid, his words weren't wrong.When Owen first came to Ludwiten, he thought he could make it big, recklessly using the Grisham family's funds and resources. But he had been deceived by several people and lost everything.Not only was he foolish, but he was also malicious—leaving behind a disaster for the Grisham family to clean up. "Jett, calm down," Aria said. "I know Owen dragged the Grisham family down. He's already been punished and won't be coming out anytime soon."You and I both despise him, but let's stop dwelling on the past. He's not worth it."Jett had never
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1396 Reborn
With Landon monitoring the stock market, Aria could walk right into Orion's trap. This way, Orion would let his guard down. When people felt confident, they invested more. Aria, well-versed in the stock market, understood this all too well. She had never intended to get rid of Lily. However, things were different this time. There was a limit to how much one could withstand another's viciousness. Aria doubted Lily could predict the market flawlessly—it was impossible, just as it was impossible for her to know everything.The logic was simple. If something fell outside one's area of expertise, even the most attentive observer would only grasp the outcome, not the details. Thinking it over, Aria realized Lily only knew about major events. The smaller ones seemed to escape her notice.If she put herself in Lily's shoes, it was like remembering which lottery would have a winner but not the exact numbers drawn.After all, no one knew when they would be reborn. The only way to acce
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1395 Working Together
Malcolm did not know why Aria was asking, but he remembered the details clearly. "It was after that day." Aria tapped on the desk. "No wonder the Draycotts suddenly changed their market strategy. I get it now." What was she talking about? Before Malcolm could ask, Aria continued, "Some people are trying to cheat the system. Keep an eye on things, but stay safe. If anything happens, come to me first. "Like you said, they've got deep connections. Don't bother with the police—just keep the evidence." "Got it." Before hanging up, Malcolm asked, "Should we still watch the stock market?" Aria smirked. "Yes. They're not the only ones who can play dirty." Lily had probably been reborn too. But whatever Lily knew, Aria knew as well. She had never thought to use that knowledge this way before since it hadn't seemed necessary, but things were not the same now. If her dreams were real, then in her past life, Lily had only made it to Janovin. She had played the star medical student at
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1394 Not Knowing Each Other Well
After being together all this time, Aria suddenly had a thought. Were she and Landon too distant from each other? No, "distant" was not quite the right word. It was more like they did not know each other well enough. Landon always felt just out of reach, like there was a fog between them. Simply put, he was not being straight with her. The thought left her feeling uneasy. Before she could say anything, her phone rang. It must be news about the Draycotts. It had to be something big for them to call so urgently. Aria glanced at the pair. Landon smiled. "If you have questions, Jett, feel free to talk with my manager, Ms. Virelle." Manager? Seraphina caught on quickly. "Mr. Grisham, shall we step outside?" Jett was still trying to process everything. "Wait." Balancing business and personal matters as usual, Aria held her phone up and said, "I heard Ms. Virelle used to work at the Draycotts' club. Let's have a chat later." Seraphina froze, glancing at Landon. Seeing his bl
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1393 Being Clever
Seraphina could not let her mind go there. Maybe she should've stayed in Netherrealm for a few more years. It was not so bad down there anyway. Landon barely spared her a glance, keeping his eyes on Jett with polite interest. "Won't you sit, Jett?"Sit? Jett could barely remember why he had come in the first place. Landon's voice snapped him back. "I... Mr. York, excuse me for asking, but what's your relationship with Ms. Virelle?""She works for me." Landon glanced at Seraphina. "Ms. Virelle? That's a new title."Jett stumbled over his words. "She works for you?""Yes," Landon said casually, like it was the most obvious thing. "Isn't it obvious?"Jett could not imagine the Yorks being in that kind of business. From Jett's expression alone, Landon could guess what kind of mess his people had made in Ludwiten. Since he had been dragged into it now, he figured he owed the Grishams an explanation. "I planted her in the Draycott family. The Yorks need a foothold in Ludwiten."So
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1392 Losing Her Mind
Getting out of there wasn't going to be easy. Aria did not waste any time. She moved fast behind the suite divider, her laugh carrying a different note than usual. "What a shame."Landon's hand paused as he fixed her hair, his voice as smooth as ever. "I could have them leave.""Bad timing. My cousin's out there." Aria glanced at him, taking in that perfect collarbone of his. No wonder they used to call him the untouchable one, with all those socialites dying for just a smile.She had never given much thought to that kind of thing before. All those times working with patients, she had kept things strictly professional. But things felt different now, and she couldn't quite put her finger on why. Her gorgeous fiancé had a way of making her lose her head.Landon pulled his hand back while looking down. "We should meet with your cousin. I hear the Grishams like to evaluate their in-laws.""Huh?" That had not crossed her mind. He did not seem like someone who would care about app
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1391 Raw Desire
Aria felt something wild coming off him. It was not hatred, but something close. She was too caught up to figure out what it was. She had never felt anything like this before; it was like she was floating. Her eyes were open, but she could not focus. Even his breathing felt like an invasion, starting at her ear and spreading through her whole body. When his fingers pressed into her waist, instinct made her try to push him away. That was a bad move—it only made things more intense. He lit her up like a match, heat spreading from her neck downward till she had to tilt her head back just to breathe. It reminded her of that hazy dream, the one in which she had been caught between sleep and waking, her pulse racing and her skin on fire. But it did not feel exactly the same because what she was feeling now was real. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught glimpses of the river through the massive windows. The view was blurry, but it was enough to remind her where she was. Unable t
