CHAPTER 64
Valerian turned toward the house but suddenly stopped. He couldn't simply barge inside without knowing who was waiting for him or what they had planned. He hadn't even seen the person behind the mysterious messages, and he wasn't foolish enough to walk blindly into a potential trap. After a moment's consideration, he decided to leave. He walked out through the gate and booked a taxi back to the mansion, keeping the box firmly in his possession. Upon arriving, he briefly checked on Crystal. As usual, she seemed gloomy, her expression reflecting the emotional toll her illness had taken on her. Valerian watched her for a moment before heading back to his room, determined to find out what the mysterious package contained. He placed the box on the table and sat down, resting his hand against his jaw as he studied it. The sender had deliberately concealed their identity, lured him to an abandoned house, and instructed him not to open the package until he returned home. What could possi

CHAPTER 62 - UNKNOWN MESSAGE
Minerva's expression hardened with indignation as she retrieved her phone and dialed her lawyer's number. She had tolerated years of agonizing pain, endured countless medical examinations, and swallowed an assortment of medications under the assumption that the professionals entrusted with her health were genuinely attempting to save her.The call connected almost at once."Good day, ma'am. How may I assist you?" Christopher greeted her."Good day, Christopher. I want you to initiate legal proceedings against Dr. Lilian Richard of Sinclair Imperial Medical Center," Minerva instructed, her voice frigid with determination. "I have reason to believe that he has been prescribing fraudulent medication under the pretense of treating my illness. I want his conduct thoroughly investigated, and I want the hospital held accountable for any complicity in this deception."There was no hesitation in her voice. Years of suffering had already cost her enough, and she had no intention of a
CHAPTER 61 - LAB RAT
Minerva retrieved her phone and dialed Dr. Richard’s number, allowing it to ring for several minutes before he finally answered.“Good day, Miss Minerva. How may I be of assistance?” the doctor greeted her, his voice carrying its usual professional cordiality.“Good day, Dr. Richard. I want you to send me my complete medical records, beginning from the year I commenced treatment at your hospital. I want every document pertaining to my diagnosis, prescriptions, and subsequent medical examinations.”There was a brief but noticeable silence on the other end of the line.Dr. Richard’s fingers tightened around his phone as apprehension crept into his expression. “Miss Minerva, is there a problem? May I ask why you suddenly require your medical records?”Minerva’s expression hardened.“Dr. Richard, I don't recall asking for your opinion. I simply want my medical records. Whatever reason I have for requesting them is a personal matter, and I expect you to respect that.”Her voice was cold, h
CHAPTER 60 - MINERVA'S ILLNESS
It had been twenty-four hours since Minerva was brought to Valerian's room, and throughout that period, Reyna had made several visits to check on her condition. Valerian, on the other hand, had remained attentive to her recovery, regularly burning Cliwood leaves to help regulate her breathing and prevent another episode from taking hold. Although Minerva had finally stabilized, her body remained weakened by the debilitating effects of Ashraven Degenerative Syndrome.The following morning, while Valerian was in his room, the butler walked in and bowed politely."Good morning, sir. Someone is here to see you. According to him, he has a package to deliver."Valerian raised his head, a slight frown creasing his forehead. He wasn't expecting anyone, and the unexpected delivery stirred his curiosity at once."Who is it?" he asked."He didn't provide much information, sir. He only said he was sent by his employer."Valerian rose from his seat and made his way downstairs to see the vis
CHAPTER 59 - THE ATTACK
Valerian's eyes flickered across his phone screen, and a frown creased his forehead when he saw Reyna's name. He slid his finger across the screen and brought the phone to his ear."Yes, I can hear you.""Please, I need you to come to the company right away," Reyna said urgently. "Madam Minerva is having one of her episodes, and this time, it's quite severe."Before Valerian could ask a single question, the call abruptly ended.He stared at the screen for a moment before shutting his eyes, an inexplicable sensation tightening in his chest. He couldn't quite understand why the news unsettled him, especially when Minerva had been deliberately avoiding him lately."Please, take a turn and head to Vallencourt Company," he instructed the taxi driver.Meanwhile, Minerva sat among the board members in the conference room, her gaze fixed on the presentation displayed on the screen before her. One of the executives was explaining the figures, outlining the company's latest projections and prop
