Chapter 649 Anxiety

Author: Night Eleven
Georgina's first encounter with her blood granddaughter Lily was fraught with tension. Though she had considered shutting the door on Lily, the girl's tearful pleas—her eyes swollen and red—halted her.

"I just wanted to see you, Grandma. Why do you dislike me so—is it because of my mother? My mother and I are different people, Grandma!"

Lily was great at acting. As someone who had lived another life, she knew how to make Georgina's heart soften.

"Am I no longer your granddaughter in your heart, Grandma? Weren't you and Grandpa excited when I was born?"

The elderly residents of the neighborhood pitied her, and they advised Georgina to let her in first despite the misunderstandings between them.

After a brief hesitation, Georgina decided not to think so poorly of Lily.

Lily didn't ask Georgina for anything. She gave Georgina some supplements and helped her tidy up the herbs at the clinic before massaging her legs.

Before leaving, she said, "I'll visit you again, Grandma. You sho

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 2098 Something Wrong

    Homer looked down at his hands, feeling the steady return of his magic flowing through his veins. A long-lost smile spread across his face. This time, he hadn't just escaped death; he had regained his powers and grown stronger than before. He could tell that he was only half a step away from becoming an Arcane High Priest.Aria jutted her chin. "Mr. Bond, rest well. If you don't recover soon, your apprentices might come knocking on my family's door."Homer frowned. "If they dare to cause you all any trouble, I'll kick them out of the sect."Aria smiled. "Good. Take care of yourself. I still have other matters to handle, but I'll visit you again tomorrow."Homer waved his hands. "Go ahead. Now that my power is back, there's no need to worry about Sylas ambushing me. I'll be fine."With that, Aria and Landon left his ward.…In the meantime, Sylas and his men were somewhere in the underground palace. A thin chill gathered at Sylas' fingertips as his men handed over the dossier

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 2097 Warning

    The driver instinctively slammed on the brakes, the tires screeching sharply against the pavement.Sylas pushed the car door open and looked ahead warily. Beneath the streetlight, a lone figure stood in the middle of the road. His poised stance and tailored attire only heightened the quiet menace radiating from him."It's you?" Sylas' voice chilled. He recognized the man as the one usually with Aria. He had always come across as mild and unassuming—an ordinary, defenseless man.Yet, something about Landon's presence triggered every alarm in Sylas' mind. The weight of his presence was crushing, far beyond what Sylas had felt even when facing Homer. It was obvious that Landon was far more dangerous.Landon turned slowly, revealing his handsome yet indifferent face. His eyes were devoid of emotion, gleaming like ice untouched for centuries. The moment his gaze met Sylas', the latter stiffened. It was the look of a predator sizing up its prey, and it stole the air from Sylas' lungs.

    One after the other, Aria and Landon stepped into the ward and approached Homer, who lay unconscious on the hospital bed. "Mr. Bond, hang in there," Aria said quietly, her voice soothing. "I will save you."Then, she turned to Landon. "I need to focus on treating Mr. Bond. I'll leave everything else to you."He nodded lightly. "Okay."Aria took out her needle case again. Pinching a silver needle between her fingers, she slowly inserted it into Homer's skin. The needle trembled at once, as though encountering a terrifying force.From the vibration, Aria sensed it clearly—Homer's consciousness had been brushed by a streak of dark energy."I'm counting on you," she whispered. Without another word, she closed her eyes and gathered her consciousness into a fine strand. Following the markings on the needle's base, she guided it carefully into Homer's mind.On the bed, Homer's previously steady breathing suddenly faltered. His eyes snapped open, and his left hand lunged toward Aria

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 2095 Plot Uncovered

    No one knew the old man wasn't a real person. In truth, he was a puppet Sylas had animated using dark arts, and it had served its purpose well.The puppet had lowered Homer's guard and seized his soul before he even realized what was happening. Had he not been gravely injured, he would never have fallen for it. After all, he was a powerful arcane priest. But now, he was completely at Sylas' mercy.That was exactly what Sylas had counted on. What surprised him, however, was that someone had managed to save Homer in spite of those heavy injuries.So, he gathered everyone who had been at the scene and visited Homer at the hospital. It was the perfect opportunity to blend in with the crowd and get close to him.Homer's mentees were guarding his ward. To bypass them, Sylas needed a new plan.Meanwhile, Homer's consciousness was in chaos. His soul was trapped in a purplish black dimension, while Sylas' spectral form stared at him with mocking amusement."Homer, you're a tough one. I

    At the York residence, Titus sneered. "You finally came home after all this time. I wouldn't have known you'd returned to Janovin if Keith hadn't told me."Landon gulped and gave a low chuckle. "Well, I'm home now, Grandpa."Titus gave him a sidelong glance. "Alright. I suppose I can't control you anymore."Then, his expression softened as he turned to Aria, who sat nearby. His gloomy face brightened instantly. "Aria, did this brat get into trouble when he was with you? If he did—or upset you in any way—just tell me. I'll make sure he regrets it.""Grandpa…" Landon began."Shush. I'm talking to Aria. Go make us some tea instead," Titus interrupted. "I want to hear what she has to say. Don't worry, Aria, I've got your back. Speak freely."Landon shook his head with a faint smile, but the moment he stepped inside, the smile faded, replaced by a steely look."Did you find out where he is?" he asked."Sir, it's difficult," the crow replied, emerging from the shadows. "I might've be

    To Aria, it was hard for medical practitioners to demonstrate real skill when most hospitals relied on machines. Not everyone had the patience to learn the intricacies of traditional medicine, including the four diagnostic methods.Doctors not only had to remember dozens of acupoints but also choose the right herbs to treat patients. In most hospitals, only a handful of physicians actually knew how to check pulses. For some, the whole concept felt foreign.Machines erased that need. Staff only had to follow prompts from scanners and monitors. In the long run, that convenience might be useful, but it also encouraged dangerous overreliance."Thank you for the guidance."The doctors at Janovin Hospital understood the subtext and turned to leave. "Aria," Warren said as he hurried over. "You've lost some weight. Have you been skipping meals? Is it because you don't like the food out there?"Aria smiled calmly. "Not at all. Landon has been taking care of me. It's just that I had too m
