Chapter 259: Kael Calls Lord Dominic
"Whatever your dad and I argued over shouldn't be your business, Kael," Midas said, his tone turning strict through the speaker. "I've told you several times to stop inquiring about all of these matters because it isn't as you see it. Stop asking, and stop trying to search. You should listen to me when I speak.”Hearing his grandfather's dismissive words only flared Kael's anger even more. He was searching for the truth about his own flesh and blood, yet the one person who held the answers was actively sealing them away.Kael's grip tightened around his phone, his voice laced with cold frustration. "So, Grandpa, I know absolutely nothing about my mother. And now, when I try to find out something about my father, you are doing everything you can to hide it from me! What is the real story here? What did my father do? And where have you sent him that his details can't even be found in any database? Please... just release him for me at least. It's been twenty-three years!”On the other en
Chapter 258: Young Master Aldridge
Darius sneered, looking at her with total disdain. “What do you know? Do you really think Kael is just some—”Before he could even finish his sentence, Marielle broke into a mockingly loud laugh. “Are you trying to hype him up just to get my approval for Elowen? Trust me, Darius, that isn't going to work! First he claimed he's the mysterious ‘Supreme Investor,’ and now he’s the secret reason behind the three families coming together? Oh, please! Spare me, Darius!”Darius’s face darkened instantly. “Marielle, in case you aren't aware, you are in my house only because of my children! You are not a part of this family, so you should—”Kael didn't want to stay back for even another second to listen to their pointless squabbling. He turned around calmly and cut in, his tone cold and indifferent.“I’ll be taking my leave, Mr. Valecrest.”Without waiting for either of them to reply, Kael turned on his heel and walked straight out of the grand living room.The moment the front door closed, Da
Chapter 257: Julian Danaru III
Darius quickly shook his head, a look of solemn regret settling over his face."If that argument was the exact reason he left, I really don't know," Darius admitted softly. "When I asked your grandfather about it the next day, all he told me was that your dad had made his own decisions, and he had made his. From that moment on, I was strictly forbidden from mentioning Julian's name, and I was told not to go looking for him.”Darius let out a heavy sigh, looking down at his hands. "I didn't try to stop Julian when he walked out of the hospital that night. I genuinely thought he was just overwhelmed with grief and anger because your mother had just passed away. It seemed completely natural that he was stepping outside to clear his head or grieve in private. Giving him space felt like the sensible, respectful thing to do at the time... I had no idea that would be the last time I would ever see my best friend.”Darius looked up, his eyes filled with sorrow. "To this day, I feel like your
Chapter 256: Julian Danaru II
Darius's expression changed as he slowly shook his head.“I'm sorry, Kael, I don't have a picture of your mother.”Kael's eyes dimmed. “I only have pictures of your father,” Darius continued. “I met your mother several times, and I knew her, but for some reason, I never kept any photographs of her, I'm sorry.”Kael lowered his gaze toward the photograph in his hands. For a moment, he said nothing.He had spent years wondering what his mother looked like, imagining countless possibilities in his mind. Now that he finally had the chance to ask someone who had actually known her, he had hoped he could at least see her face.But even that hope had disappeared. He placed the photograph on his lap before looking back at Darius.“Mr. Valecrest, I want to know something, what happened to my dad?”His voice was quiet, but there was an unmistakable seriousness behind it.“Where did he go? You told me earlier that he wasn't on speaking terms with my grandfather. Why? What actually happened betwe
Chapter 255: Julian Danaru
Kael looked around the table as the argument continued, then slowly placed his utensils down. He had no intention of becoming the reason a family gathering turned into another battlefield, especially when Elowen herself was clearly uncomfortable with the direction the conversation had taken.“Mr. Valecrest, thank you for the offer, but I don't think this is appropriate. Elowen should marry whoever she wants, and I'll do whatever I want with my life. I don't think we're meant for each other.”Marielle immediately scoffed.“Oh, don't make it sound as though some wonderful offer was presented to you and you nobly rejected it. Even if she were compatible with you, you wouldn't be capable of taking care of my daughter. Do you even realize she's older than you?”“Marielle,” Darius interrupted, his expression hardening. “Years ago, I told my friend Julian that if the child his wife gave birth to was a boy, then once Elowen recovered and the children were old enough, I would consider having t
Chapter 254: Elowen & Kael Alliance
Tyler's expression immediately changed when he heard Kael's question. He leaned forward slightly, his eyes narrowing as though Kael had just asked something ridiculous."Do you really see me as that insignificant?" Tyler asked with a mocking laugh. "You really don't understand how these things work, do you, country bumpkin? I'm in direct contact with the senior partners who handle the Supreme Investor's capital. That's precisely why he found it worthwhile to invest in my company.”"I've already proposed meeting the Supreme Investor personally. Now that I'm back in Valaris, I'll make it happen. Once I meet him face-to-face, you'll understand exactly what kind of connections I have."Marielle's face immediately lit up with pride. She threw a condescending glance toward Darius and then Kael before smiling proudly at her son."Do you see the difference now, Kael? That's what real high-society influence looks like. It's not something you can understand simply by coming from the countryside
