Chapter 287 The Brothers

Author: Night Eleven
Jeffrey inhaled deeply in the county hospital's ICU ward. Everyone else had seen Aria except for him!

He turned to Frank. "Mr. Levin, why didn't Grandpa visit me here with Aria?"

"Mr. Carver Senior came, but you were sleeping." Frank peeled an apple for him. "I heard Mr. Watson say that Mr. Carver Senior's chronic illness is flaring up again, so Ms. Aria is treating him."

Jeffrey's shoulders were still wrapped in bandages. "I need someone to treat me too," he mumbled, a hint of petulance in his voice.

"Mr. Jeffrey," Frank said with a smile. "Mr. Carver Senior is finally reunited with Ms. Rainbow after such a long time. Perhaps you can wait a few more days? He'll remember you eventually."

Jeffrey chuckled sarcastically. "He's the same as always."

Frank smiled and said nothing.

"This is a good way to go about it, though. Only with that will certain people come to know who's the real daughter of the Carver family," Jeffrey said, seemingly insinuating something.

    "Did you just say that Landon is with Rainbow?" Percy seized the key detail. "Everyone in Janovin knows he broke off the engagement. What's he doing there?"Jeffrey pursed his lips. "I'm not sure, but he said that she's his girlfriend.""What?" The other five brothers exploded."That's inappropriate of him!""Tell us, Leon, what the hell is your boss thinking?""How did Rainbow become his girlfriend?"The brothers turned to Leon all at once. Leon had been silent for a while because he was searching for air tickets. With Rainbow found, he thought he should fulfil his responsibility as her brother and pick her up as soon as possible. The stylist was still admiring the condition of Leon's skin. "Stage makeup looks good on you, Mr. Carver. Please don't look at the gossip online. They're claiming that you're promiscuous, but they're just trying to bring you down."Leon suddenly said, "What do you think girls now like, Clary? I have to give Rainbow a surprise."He had such a dopey

    Landon paused. Aria leaned closer toward him and said, "I've known you for a long time, but because of what I heard at the hospital, I've always assumed that you were a member of the Carver family."Now that I think of it, something isn't right with that. Frank listens to you, and Mr. Lowe accompanies you to the hospital himself. "It's not just members of the Carver family who can command such deference, but also members of the York family—the latter more so."Aria's gaze fell on his wrist. "You always wear that rosary bracelet that helps to relieve the uneasiness of the body and mind. I should've figured out who you are a long time ago."Landon coughed lightly as he supported Aria. His lips were pale as he said, "I thought I could keep that under wraps. I'm sorry."His handsome features looked even more harmless when he wasn't wearing his glasses. He looked especially elegant and pious as the winds blew. "But you ended up figuring it out anyway.""I'm Landon York." He smiled. "

    Aria was speechless. That wasn't what she'd asked, was it?Landon said, "Those words used to feel like shackles binding me. No matter how I tried to free myself from that, they reminded me that I wouldn't be able to decide who I'd get married to.""I can treat your sickness—" Aria had just started speaking when Landon interrupted her with a chuckle. "But now I'm glad that they serve to tie you and I together."Aria looked confused, which was a rare expression on her. Landon held her in his arms. His heart thumped steadily and firmly in his chest. "I've had feelings for you since a long time ago, and they're completely unrelated to who you might be."Aria raised her head, wanting to look at him, but he, feeling insecure, pressed her head into his chest. "I don't have any unadvisable pastimes, and I'm good at earning money. Perhaps you could take some time to consider getting together with me.""Sure." Aria's nose was buried in his clothes, and she could feel him breathing. He was

    Warren had assumed that he'd have to spend a lot of time convincing Aria to return to Janovin with him, but she agreed readily.This made Warren very eager to return there. Aria prepared his medicine before telling him about her plans. "You should return to Janovin first, Grandpa. I'll go later after picking up my grandma.""You want me to go back first?" Warren was reluctant to be apart from Aria, so he threw a tantrum like a kid. "No."Aria chuckled. "The medical resources in this county are limited. Your health condition means that I need to treat you with all I have, but they're short of many herbs here.""I'll go with you to meet your grandma, then." Warren's words brooked no refusal. "The Carver family is indebted to her. I should've visited her to thank her long ago."Aria couldn't very well say no to that. Before their departure, Aria visited Jeffrey. He woke up just as she was adjusting the drip rate of the IV bag he was hooked to. He grinned. "Hey, Aria."There seem

    Georgina had been waiting for Aria since getting her call in the afternoon. She and Sarah felt anxious when they watched Aria's livestream. Thankfully, Lucas was also present and told them about the plan to arrest the criminals. Georgina would've bought tickets to Uludon immediately if not for that. "That's Aria, isn't it, Ms. Harris? That car looks so expensive—and it has a Janovian license plate!"Janovian? Georgina looked up, only to see six luxury cars parked over there. Aria had come out of the vehicle leading the envoy, supporting an old man as they walked over. The old man wore a suit. "How did Aria get to know those people? They're obviously wealthy at first glance!"As Georgina's neighbors in the alley milled around, she smiled. "They're her biological family."Aria had told Georgina everything she needed to on the phone the previous day. As thorough as she was, she worried that Georgina would overthink it. At the end of the call, she mentioned, "I set my sights

    Initially, Georgina hesitated about going to Janovin with Aria, but now it seemed that she must. Even if she wouldn't be of any help, she could still watch over Aria. Warren and Georgina talked for a long time. Georgina showed Warren photos of Aria when she was a child. "Look at how out of it she was; her gaze was so blank. I was worried about her grades, but now she's the smartest student in the state."Warren's eyes shone. "She's the smartest student in the state?" He knew Aria took after him, unlike Elijah and Leon, who were only interested in acting and singing."Yeah, she's incredibly smart. The Kent family owe her, to be honest." Georgina said guiltily, "My good-for-nothing son and daughter-in-law treated her really badly."Georgina told Warren everything. Warren was understanding. "You didn't have a hand in all that. You watched over and provided for Aria until adulthood, and this is indisputable. Aria is constantly thinking of how she should care for you.""Aria keeps eve

    Landon was patient. "Where's your bank account number again?"Sam pointed at the straps of his suspenders.Landon transferred 100,000 dollars to his bank account and said, "I heard that you're partial to yarrow and staghorn."Sam nodded.Landon ruffled his hair with a smile. "I'll bring some for you next time."Sam decided he would tolerate Landon since he'd paid and would bring those herbs for him the next time they met. Tolerating Landon's existence was the farthest Sam could go. He'd never grow to like Landon because Landon's presence felt dangerous, and he always found himself having the urge to escape whenever he was in Landon's vicinity.Sam had no idea if Aria had listened to what he'd said to her. He heaved a long sigh when he thought about it, completely oblivious to the fact that his words had achieved an effect completely opposite of what he was envisioning.Aria still had some loose ends to tie up in Southbury, so she planned to get some investigations done when Wa

    The HR employee glanced over at Aria and spoke with a hint of cockiness. "Eden, I called your name twice. You should pay more attention next time. You can't act like this during the interview. Otherwise, you might not even complete the application."The cockier she sounded, the more convinced the students became that the scholarship program was legitimate. Their wariness gradually faded.Noticing the students' reactions, Aria walked over to the HR employee.The woman said nothing more. She looked Aria up and down, glanced at the red mark on the paper, then turned and led Aria to the innermost room—her heels clicking sharply on the floor.Aria knew she was their real target. Others had arrived before her, but they were ignored until she showed up.Inside, the interviewer was a middle-aged man. He gestured for Aria to sit. Without much expression, he asked, "Eden, will you be able to adjust to foreign cuisines? What are your expectations for your future school? What are your plans af

    After entering the building, Aria discovered there were at least ten other students around her age. Some had been picked up from rural areas. All of them believed they were there for a language test in Angladian, and many were busy practicing their speaking skills.The leader gestured for his subordinates to push Aria forward. "Off you go. Try your best to nail it on the first shot."Aria walked inside without resistance. She noted that surveillance cameras had been installed in every corner, even at every hallway turn. It was clear all the students were under strict observation.She had to admit—the company was much more professional-looking than expected. If she hadn't disguised herself as Eden or known in advance that the company was suspicious, she might have believed this was a legitimate organization."Alright. Next student, come with me," called one of the HR staff.Everyone seemed busy. Employees sat at desks buried under piles of documents, each preoccupied with their ow

    Those who dedicated their lives to protecting others didn't care about how people viewed them, because a greater purpose drove them.Just as Brent had said, no one would help people like them without expecting compensation. And if anyone did, it could only be the Farshyan soldiers.At that moment, the train to Janovin began to move.…Meanwhile, Aria, disguised as Eden, sat quietly in the car with her eyes closed, appearing to be asleep. She didn't react when the man sitting next to her gently tapped her arm. He leaned closer and whispered, "Sir, doesn't she seem different from usual? Do you think she's car sick or something?"The driver frowned, holding up an ID photo and glancing back at her."Maybe she's just used to us now. Probably has everything figured out by this point. Anyway, our job's just to drop her off. What happens after that isn't our concern. Once they pick her up, we'll get our money."Unbeknownst to them, Aria was wide awake, listening to every word and memor

    Ordinary people understood the harshness of reality. Brent, having lived in poverty for most of his life, had been looked down on more times than he could count.Poor people like them could die unnoticed at home, and no one would care, let alone offer help without expecting something in return.If something really happened to Eden, Brent doubted he and his wife could do anything to save her. Judy was a prime example. Her father, Alec Lanez, had even given up selling bread just to look for her.Every time Alec went to the school, he was met with the same cold response."It has nothing to do with us. Your daughter ran away and refuses to acknowledge you. So why are you coming here? Peasants like you should know your place. Without us, people like you could only dream of going overseas. How filthy!"Brent had heard the school's representative say those exact words when he accompanied Alec. Both of them could only stand there, humiliated and speechless.Alec's back was sore from how m

    Eden immediately opened the windows after hearing that. "Did Ms. Carver send you here? Is she in any danger? I'm really worried about her. Should I call the police? I'd feel horrible if anything happened to her."Weston remained calm and indifferent. "Calling the police will only make them suspicious. My boss is amazing, and there's nothing she can't handle. She has a plan. Right now, my priority is to bring all of you to Heartbound Hall in Janovin so your grandfather can receive treatment."The respect in Weston's voice when he spoke of Aria was unmistakable."Pack up your things and come with me," Weston ordered.Their team had already checked the surroundings and ensured nothing would go wrong. Anyone watching would think Eden's grandparents were simply collecting bottles and preparing lunch as usual, not leaving the house until the afternoon.Without wasting time, Weston picked up the elderly couple's luggage. His most important task now was to get Eden and her grandparents to

    "We followed the address, so this must be the place. Sir, isn't that the girl?" It was the same group of people as before. After failing their last mission because of Aria, they were being extra cautious this time."We can't afford any more mistakes. Treat her kindly so that she won't suspect anything.""Yes, sir."When they saw a young woman in a school uniform appear right on time, they were convinced she was the right person. After all, Aria looked exactly like Eden.They rolled down the car window and waved. "Ms. Bohmer, over here."Aria looked up and recognized several familiar faces. She grabbed her bag and walked toward the car."Ms. Bohmer, we meet again," The driver greeted Aria warmly. "Let's go."The team had prepared for a difficult encounter. They'd even been authorized to use force if necessary, as long as they avoided surveillance cameras. But to their surprise, Aria simply opened the car door and got in without resistance.Aria glanced at their puzzled expression

    The aged voice was filled with indifference. "It seems like she reached a dead end."Amos sneered. "I don't understand why these peasants like staying in the city. Still, it's fortunate for us. Otherwise, it'd be hard to get our hands on them.""Amos," the person cut in sharply, as if reminding him of his place.Amos only dared to speak so harshly when no one was around. If word got out, his image as the perfect secretary would be ruined.He quickly calmed down and fell silent. The caller didn't press the matter, simply saying, "You need to change the way you speak and act from now on."Since she's already agreed, give her the money. Don't treat her requests as a nuisance. The more requests they make, the less likely they are to cause trouble later."After picking her up tomorrow, send a few men to check if her grandparents need any help. Make sure everything is done properly."Amos nodded. "I understand. You always see the bigger picture. We'll continue looking after them."Poo

    "I promise it won't happen again!" To an outsider, it might've sounded like Amos was talking about the cafeteria mishap. But the truth was much darker. What Amos really meant was that incidents like this could continue, just never publicly. Once the media's attention died down, they could go back to doing whatever they pleased. But for now, the performance had to be flawless.The man on the other end of the call seemed satisfied. Though his voice was flat and monotonous, there was a noticeable shift; it was now less stern."She's been manipulating the stock market," he said. "It's caused major damage to several of Luwditen's corporations. We can't let her walk free."Amos removed his glasses, a grim look on his face. "That's exactly what I told the Securities Regulatory Department. It doesn't matter who comes to plead on her behalf. Even if she's the late Mr. Barron's heir, she has to face the law."She's confessed. No one's going to let her off the hook now. You know what jail'

    At first, Eden didn't understand what Aria meant. But as night fell, Aria lowered her head and started fumbling with something. When she looked up again, Eden was stunned—Aria looked exactly like her.Eden's eyes widened in disbelief. She'd only seen something like this in movies. But now, it was unfolding right in front of her. So there really was such a flawless disguise technique in the world."Aria, you…""Since I'm using your identity, I have to be you," Aria said with a soft tug of her mask, smiling. She had always been bold, yet precise. Working in the Special Missions Unit meant secrecy was second nature to her—this part was routine."Stay home and rest tonight. I'll leave first thing in the morning. Once I'm gone and the coast is clear, take your grandparents and leave."Eden opened her mouth, unsure of how to respond. She didn't even know when the people watching them would leave."My team will come get you," Aria reassured her. "What's important is that your grandparent
