Chapter 531 Some Things about Aria

Christian crumpled to the floor. No one dared step forward after they knew who Landon was. Landon made to leave the room with Aria; his bodyguards would deal with everything else that followed.Upon seeing how protective he was of Aria, Lily was consumed by flames of jealousy, which eventually morphed into a burning hatred. Why did Aria, of all people, get to have this man as beautiful as an angel? Lily gripped the straps of her backpack hard as her gaze fell on Landon's face. Her lips were almost bruised from how hard she was biting on them, and her eyes burned hotly. "This fine man should have been mine," Lily thought. Despite coming from a wealthy family in Southbury, Christian was cowardly in the face of difficulty, unlike Landon, who was so powerful he could bring upon the Short family's downfall with just one sentence.Lily decided to try attracting Landon's attention. Although they didn't have a good start, she was greatly advantaged in a way other people weren't—she k

Chapter 532 Lily's Reputation is Ruined

Chenice had said all that out of jealousy because Aria had found herself a great boyfriend. However, when she started rumors about Aria and her sugar daddies, Mary wondered if Chenice was not afraid of the karmic consequences.Mary didn't know about anyone else, but the only thought in her mind was that she should stay away from this crowd.When Landon left, he said, "I can't tolerate anyone saying malicious things about my fiancée. If anyone else wants to spread rumors around, expect lawyers to show up at your door. I'm always ready to take the matter further."All the students dared not speak. Lily, the shrewd and calculating woman she was, knew very well that this was not the right time and place to tell Landon about what she knew. Those who attracted the most attention were always dealt with first. Also, Landon wasn't just an ordinary descendant from a wealthy family; he wouldn't remember her if she'd only used the most basic tricks.As Lily witnessed Chenice's downfall, she

Chapter 533 Lily Refuses to Change

Lily cried pitifully, "Please give it some thought. If I knew that Aria had such a powerful man as a boyfriend, would I embarrass myself on purpose like this?"That was true. Noticing that the accusatory stares had softened, Lily added, "Don't worry. I'll deal with the misunderstanding between me and Aria—I'll seek her out later. Grandma won't just stand by and watch us turn against each other."Everyone traded gazes. It wasn't that they didn't want to believe in Lily's words. It was that they suddenly realized that Lily and Aria were sisters, and they had mutual relatives even though they weren't blood-related. If they ended up upsetting Lily, they would be the ones suffering from the adverse consequences. In addition to that, Lily also had her own connections within Janovin. Soon, someone apologized, "I'm sorry, Lily. We were a bit agitated just now. You should talk this through with your grandma, though. "You and Aria are family in the end. Now that she has found herself s

Chapter 534 The Socialites

As long as Georgina was alive, there was hope that Lily's plan could be carried out. She had already decided what her next step would be. However, Lily remained unaware of Aria's real identity. She thought she was now among the elite in Janovin, but both the Wagners and Laynes saw her only as a doctor. None of the daughters of the wealthy and powerful in the city saw her as a friend, so they naturally wouldn't tell her about the marriage between the York and Carver families.…The collapse of the Short family directly affected the Layne family, who had already been having a rough time recently. Samuel's hands, perched on his walking stick, were shaking as he said, "Did you not find out why Landon suddenly took action against the Shorts?""You know this as well, Dad. If we investigate the matter right now, we're basically admitting our involvement in what the Shorts have done, so we can't do it."Samuel looked at his eldest son, who used to be the most competent one of them al

Chapter 535 Excluding Aria

It wasn't only the people in Janovin who placed particular importance on their social circles. This was common regardless of area.Even a famous celebrity would have to rely on connections to borrow couture outfits from more prominent brands if they weren't ambassadors of said brands.The more prominent the brand and the better the designer, the stricter they were about people wearing their clothes and jewelry.Not everyone could come to own these pieces. For the extremely wealthy, celebrities merely served the role of good-looking clothes racks whenever they were picking jewelry and clothing. No designer would risk offending anyone in that circle. However, they couldn't flat-out reject the Carver family's proposal.They either told Keith that they were currently participating in fashion shows overseas or had their hands full with couture outfits for another client. All in all, no one took Aria up as their client. Their responses were so polite that Keith couldn't find any faul

Chapter 536 Aria's Alternate Identity

Keith was fuming. Just as he planned to inform Warren of this so that he could think of a solution, the door to his office was pushed open. "Ms. Carver." Keith turned off speaker mode on his phone immediately.Aria had come alone. Sam had gone to Ludwiten with Fiona. Aria wanted to investigate some matters, so she hadn't asked Landon to accompany her. She paused outside Keith's office when she heard him on the phone discussing something concerning her. She remained at the door, careful not to interrupt until he was almost done.Keith didn't know how much she'd heard. He was about to explain himself when Aria chuckled, saying, "You don't need to tell Grandpa about this. His body deteriorated too much last time, and flying into a rage will negatively impact his health.""What they're doing is absolutely abominable!" Keith managed to look poised in his suit despite his rage. "They're excluding you with these underhanded methods. Color me shocked."Aria was nonchalant. "It's fine.

Chapter 537 High-End Fashion Designer

Aria continued, "Sometimes a luxury brand isn't expensive because of the brand itself but because of the story behind it."With his experience working for an elite company, Keith instantly understood what Aria had meant by that.Aria pointed at the crown. "I packaged myself as a foreign brand so that I can price my items higher. The story behind the brand isn't by me, but by the people in charge of my online orders."Keith paced around the room, his mouth wide open. "Do you know how popular you are in the social circles here, Ms. Carver?"He added, "I mean, the couture gowns and jewelry designed by you are absolutely amazing! The ladies here compete fiercely against each other just to get their hands on the limited items you release every year!"Keith wasn't a lady, but he knew clearly how astronomically famous the brand Lamar was in the jewelry and couture design industry. The couture gowns were relatively easy to acquire in Janovin, and Warren had reserved many of them the pre

Chapter 538 Backstory

These incidents had happened during Leon's childhood, so whatever he'd told her would be limited in that sense. Keith was different, seeing as he'd worked in Carver Group for so many years. Aria was sure that he knew clearly about those incidents. Even if he didn't, he'd have an idea about things that seemed unusual back then. In addition, he was not a member of the family, which meant that he could discuss the matter more objectively. This was why Aria's first move was to seek him out. "None of us expected Mrs. Carver to be reduced into that state." Keith heaved a long sigh. "Mr. Carver Senior fought with his son on the matter. He believed that Mrs. Carver's psychological trauma was all the more reason for her to leave the house and interact with other people in her social circles."Mr. Carver, on the other hand, didn't want to remind her of those sad memories. He also worried that she'd injure other people like she'd once done."Aria raised a brow. "Has she really injured a

Chapter 539 The Esoteric Arts

Keith paused. "Are you possibly suspecting Mr. Carver? He'd never!"Aria glanced at him, and he said, pushing his glasses up, "I'll always take your side, Ms. Carver. However, according to what I know about Mr. Carver, he'd never harm Mr. Carver Senior despite their disagreements."I'm not saying that Mr. Carver is a good man, rather that he's a complicated man. He doesn't resent his father to the extent of harming him."Aria believed him. However, Owen was the only Carver who could conveniently dose Warren with poison. There was also something interesting about the time the poison had taken effect. Aria had assumed that Mindy had been the perpetrator because she'd tried repeatedly to deliver homemade soup to Warren.After investigating the matter, Aria changed her mind. Mindy's soup had never been successfully delivered. If Warren's illness worsened after Mindy delivered soup to him, she would surely be seen as responsible. Mindy probably did so because she wanted to express h

Chapter 540 Aria's Smarts

Owen wouldn't do that unless someone else ensured that he would profit massively from it, giving him the idea that he'd no longer need to be conscious of the Carver family if he adopted Mindy. Aria was a master in the esoteric arts herself. Anyone who cared about them could see that Mindy didn't possess the ability to transform someone else's fortune. Anyone who could boost a family's good fortune and someone else's would possess earthly fortune. Landon was an example of someone who had it, and he was a rare case, one in a century. Under normal circumstances, people like Landon possessed so much fortune that it made their lives difficult. Mindy didn't seem to have this quality unless she was concealing something from everyone else.Aria rose from behind the desk. "Who else is my father close to aside from Mr. Windsor? Particularly people who put their trust in the esoteric arts. Who does he interact the most often with? "Most importantly, I want to know how the Carvers came to
