Valmor was momentarily stunned. Before he could even speak, Ismeryn brushed her long black hair aside and continued:“After finishing a few projects a couple of days ago, I was a bit tired, so I took two days off.”“I just went over to your place earlier and saw you weren’t home, so I guessed you had gone out!”Ismeryn broke the awkwardness from the earlier question. Her heart was beating very fast at this moment—she felt shy, expectant, and also a little bit disappointed.After all, Valmor didn’t seem to have any feelings for her; he had always been neither cold nor warm toward her.“Big sister, can I go to your house and play? I want you to play puzzles with me!” Yuna blinked her innocent big eyes and looked at Ismeryn expectantly as she asked.“Of course you can. But I’ll also be eating lunch at your place again today!” Ismeryn gently stroked Yuna’s head and said with a smile.After returning to the villa, Ismeryn played puzzles with Yuna. Valmor felt he had nothing to do, so he wa

Valmor’s gaze turned cold, and he did not speak.Dannell understood immediately and walked toward Azrik Vayne.But at that moment, another bodyguard beside Azrik Vayne received a phone call and hurriedly handed the phone to him.More than ten seconds later, an unbelievable scene that no one present could have ever imagined occurred.Thud!Thud!Azrik Vayne, along with the remaining bodyguard, suddenly dropped to their knees in front of Valmor, trembling all over, utterly terrified, so frightened they were almost losing control, banging their heads on the ground like pounding garlic as they begged:“Mr. Kross, I, Azrik Vayne, was blind and failed to recognize a true master. Please forgive me!”“Break one of his arms, and let them take the corpse and get out!”Valmor calmly gave the order and walked to the side with a glass of red wine.A scream rang out!Azrik Vayne had one of his arms crippled by Dannell. Together with the other bodyguard and the corpse of the earlier bodyguard, they

Upon hearing Azrik Vayne’s words, both father and son of the Moretti family were startled. They thought to themselves: although our Moretti family in Smaora is not considered a top-tier aristocratic family, we are definitely not someone ordinary people can manipulate. Isn’t what you, Azrik Vayne, just said tantamount to publicly slapping the Moretti family in the face? Could it be that, in that young man’s eyes earlier, our Moretti family is that weak?“Heh, Mr. Vayne what you said is a bit too much. In all of Smaora, although my Moretti family is not the number one wealthy clan, there is still no one we can’t afford to offend. Could it be that the guy earlier is some kind of heavenly king or emperor?”Lihan Moretti let out a cold laugh and did not take Vayne’s words seriously at all. In fact, he even retorted with anger.Long ago, the Moretti family was already considered a prominent wealthy clan, and in recent years their development had advanced by leaps and bounds. Apart from the

“Who sent these guys here? They must have the guts of a bear and a leopard!”“As the saying goes, whether it’s a wedding or a funeral, no matter how great the grudge is, it must be put aside temporarily. For this person to dare target the Carter family like this—they’re courting death! They are absolutely courting death!”“Although the Carter family is not the number one wealthy family in Smaora City, they are definitely not someone or some force that ordinary people can afford to provoke. I truly can’t imagine who could have such astonishing courage to challenge the Carter family!”“…………”The people sitting inside the mourning hall could not help whispering among themselves, utterly shocked.“Who? Who sent you here?” Belmorn Carter’s face turned ashen. Gritting his teeth and trembling all over, he stared at the man in red and demanded.“Our sir said that he will personally come later to offer his condolences. At that time, you will know who he is!”The leading man in red revealed a t

Boom!At that moment, Belmorn Carter’s expression changed drastically, as if struck by a bolt of lightning. He had always kept his illegitimate son a closely guarded secret. For all these years, not even his wife knew about it. Yet how did Valmor find out?Hearing Valmor’s words, Mrs. Carter, who was standing nearby, was also greatly shocked. She suddenly recalled that earlier today, Belmorn Carter had told her he once sponsored a university student long ago and had adopted him as a foster son. Now that Ethan Carter was dead, the Carter family could not be without an heir, and the couple could not be without someone to take care of them in old age, so they planned to bring this foster son back into the Carter family.Mrs. Carter had been immersed in grief over her son’s death and did not think much of it, so she agreed to Belmorn Carter’s suggestion. But she never expected that this so-called foster son would actually be her husband’s illegitimate child. Not only had he hidden it fro
