Vivianne trembled as she wiped away tears. "How... How do we lure him out?"Frederick calmly replied, "Remember how we concealed the fact that four patients were cured? The culprit likely saw they weren't and assumed no one could treat the poison, which is why he struck again. We'll tell the Monroes your father was poisoned and we can't treat him, so he must go to the medical room."When he's there and the poison doesn't kill him, the culprit will panic and strike again. That's when we'll catch him." Vivianne nodded and approved of Frederick's plan. She then turned to her weakened father and said, "Dad, you need to play along for a bit."Writhing in agony from parasitic bites, Theodore could only manage a nod from his bed. A deeply worried Vivianne rushed to get helpTheodore was in the medical room, where doctors examined him thoroughly. Despite finding no obvious issues, his extreme weakness was undeniable, leaving the medical team perplexed.The illness was a baffling mys

Unable to remain at Vivianne's side in the medical room due to his urgent search for the York family, Frederick entrusted Theodore's safety to Scarlett, Tyger, and Jacob. All three were proficient fighters, and Tyger and Jacob had made a full recovery. Their combined strength would deter most threats, and even if they couldn't defeat an attacker, they could buy enough time for Frederick to return.Salmasian had few individuals, like Varek or Mr. Faith, who were capable of easily overpowering Tyger. If such a person wanted Theodore dead, they wouldn't resort to poison; they would simply attack directly. Parasitic poison users typically weren't skilled in hand-to-hand combat and relied on their poison's potency. This was why the culprit first tested the poison on four victims, fearing a medical expert might be protecting Theodore.If a medical expert could neutralize the poison, the poison user would be rendered powerless.As Frederick departed, he cautioned the trio in a low vo

As the cruise ship ventured further into the deeper sea, anticipation grew for the upcoming auction. Albert discreetly met with Grace and Priscilla. "As my nephew's girlfriend, I have a favor to ask."Eager to foster a connection with the head of the Harmon family, Grace readily agreed. "Of course, what can I do for you?"Albert produced the auction catalog and turned to the final page."I need you to bid on this ruby ring for me. Certain circumstances prevent the Harmon family from bidding directly. If you win, the family will cover the cost and assist you in regaining your position in Jenaire City." Albert's words were music to Priscilla and Grace's ears. He had clearly done his research and understood their predicament. The Harmon family's influence rivaled the Monroe family's, and purchasing a ring seemed a small price to pay for their support. While Grace was elated, Priscilla remained cautious. "How much should we be prepared to spend on this ruby ring?"Priscilla was w

To Frederick's surprise, Wayne's demeanor had shifted.Instead of his usual respect, he gave Frederick a dismissive look and spoke sharply. "Mr. Sirius has always been tolerant and respectful toward you. I trust you won't abuse his kindness and cause further trouble for him."With that, Wayne turned and walked away. He was convinced of Frederick's lack of medical skills and harbored resentment for the slap he had received from his master due to Frederick's actions.Frederick was perplexed by Wayne's sudden change in attitude. He had always been treated with respect, leaving him to wonder what had prompted this shift.Just then, Grace's voice dripped with sarcasm from the side."Well, well, where's Vivianne today? Did she flee early to avoid exposure? She left you, the grand imposter. So, how dare you shamelessly linger here?"Bewildered by Grace's animosity, Frederick inquired, "What are you talking about?"Grace let out a mocking laugh. "You think we're unaware? You heard about

Priscilla's anger flared at Frederick's words. She had offered him kind advice, only to be met with criticism. Her good intentions felt utterly misunderstood."What's there to verify?" she retorted sharply."My mother witnessed you hitting my brother. I saw Viviane suing me. I caught you molesting June. These are facts, not fiction." Frederick nearly laughed at her outburst. Priscilla had always been quick to judge, never delving deeper into the truth."Forget it. It's pointless to argue," he said, cutting the conversation short.As their argument escalated, June anxiously interjected."Pris, please listen to Frederick's side of things. You never do, and it leads to these misunderstandings."Priscilla glared at June. "Frederick? I'd rather forget our marriage ever happened. It's like being bitten by a dog."Frederick was weary of the bickering and simply ignored her.Priscilla longed to retort, but the auction had commenced. A graceful woman took the stage, her smile captivat

The evaluation hinged on who could bring in the most revenue. Valyr City was a prime location and had already been claimed by others.Isabella, as a more distant Smith relative, was simply sent to Graceland Province.As a member of a prestigious Valyr City family, Isabella had expected Graceland Province to be less affluent, but not this destitute.The bidders were unaware of Isabella's true wealth and offered sums they believed were generous, yet Isabella found them unimpressive. Observing this, Grace took the opportunity to taunt Frederick. "Why don't you just go? Nothing here is within your budget. Standing here without buying anything shows you really have no shame."Frederick looked scornfully at Grace. "You haven't bought anything either, so what gives you the right to taunt me?"Grace's anger ignited. "That's because I haven't found anything I like yet. I am not like you, who can't afford anything at all. There's a big difference. Even the auctioneer's gavel, made of ra

Isabella soon unveiled the final auction item, harboring little optimism about its potential value.She knew the most desirable pieces had already been claimed by other family members. This remaining ring was unremarkable in her eyes.Its only distinguishing feature was the family appraiser's failure to determine its precise age or composition. How could such an ambiguous object garner a high bid? It would take a fool to offer a substantial sum!In truth, this was just another instance of her family members taking advantage of Isabella's less-favored status. Despite this, Isabella professionally introduced the ring."Ladies and gentlemen, our final auction item is quite unique. A mysterious ring of unknown age and unknown materials, starting at 30 million dollars."The crowd reacted with skepticism. What did she mean by unknown age and unknown materials? It could be made of anything!However, seeing a potential opportunity to gain favor with the Smith family, many began to bid.

Grace spotted familiar faces among the crowd—the CEOs who had dismissed her at Sirius's banquet for Priscilla.They had belittled her as a mere attendant when Sirius stormed out, eager to trample on her dignity."Mr. Hudson." she addressed one of them pointedly. "Didn't you call me an attendant? Yet you can't afford what an attendant can buy?"She continued, "Mr. Lawrence, how about you? Why don't you raise the bid? If it's worth it, go for it. Otherwise, just admit you lack the funds." One by one, Grace called out the business tycoons, and their faces flushed with anger. These men were used to dominating the business world and had never been so humiliated, especially by a secretary. Their pride wounded, the CEOS began bidding out of spite."120 million dollars.""150 million dollars!"On stage, Albert was seething with rage. The ring could have been secured for a mere 100 million dollars, but Grace's showboating had forced their hand.Furious, he turned to Nelson. "Where
