Chapter 1257 – The Major Reason Behind the Cheerfulness
*****Still in the living room.The reporter was still busy tirelessly broadcasting the events of the day, her voice steady as the scene kept alternating between her composed face and short clips of everything that had happened.She reported one explosive headline after another… news that under normal circumstances would have held anyone captive, but at this moment?Not a single person in the living room was paying attention.If anything, every single person present looked like their soul and spirit had quietly packed up and vacated their bodies, leaving behind nothing but empty, motionless shells.It wasn’t even an exaggeration at all. Right now, if a random person walked into the room, they would genuinely assume they had stumbled into a room filled with humanoid statues… perfectly sculpted, eerily realistic, and completely unmoving.No one moved or blinked. Even breathing felt… restrained.This was especially true for Grace, Susan, and Williams.The three of them had lived
Chapter 1256 – The Oriens’ Fall III
*****“I am the heir of the mighty Orien family, an upper second-rank family! How dare you put me in handcuffs!” He yelled furiously, seemingly commanding his house’s servant.But unfortunately, no one seemed to listen to him at all, let alone take him seriously.If anything, his words only made the situation more awkward, like someone proudly announcing their importance while being escorted into a disaster.He still hadn’t grasped how deep this situation truly went.And there was the two’s mother.Unlike her children, however, she had taken things to a completely different level.“It was all their grandfather’s fault!” she cried loudly, her voice thick with forced grief as tears streamed down her face. “My children are innocent! They shouldn’t be blamed!”She tried everything.Deflection, blame-shifting, and emotional manipulation.At one point, she even collapsed dramatically, fainting as though the ground itself had betrayed her.A few seconds later, however, she cautiou
Chapter 1255 – The Oriens’ Fall II
*****At this moment, the four Oriens…The once untouchable patriarch, his equally scheming son, and the two treasured, endlessly pampered, and domineering grandchildren…Were all in handcuffs.That’s right.Cold, metallic handcuffs clamped tightly around their wrists like a brutal declaration that whatever power they once flaunted had been mercilessly stripped from them.The only one spared was Nico’s wife, while the other four…Witnessing this scene from Villa Number One's huge living room, Grace and her parents genuinely questioned their own eyesight for a moment.It felt like one of those absurd dreams where reality bends so far it snaps, except this time… no matter how hard they blinked, nothing corrected itself.Ever since they knew the Oriens’ patriarch… the imposter who had once been in control of the Sky family under the guise of righteousness, he had always been a figure of cold authority: distant, calculating, and intimidating.Every word he spoke had carried weig
Chapter 1254 – The Oriens’ Fall
*****At this moment, the Sky Mansion was packed to the brim, overflowing with journalists, streamers, onlookers, and cameramen, with microphones thrust forward like weapons and voices rising everywhere.It looked less like a residence and more like the epicenter of a breaking scandal.But what truly stood out were the armed men in striking red jackets, all fully equipped and ready.They stood in a perfect line, forming a long, disciplined path that stretched deep into the estate, their presence alone enough to hold back the chaotic crowd pressing against them.No one dared cross that line.Not even the most desperate reporter.“The Central Criminal Intelligence Bureau,” David blurted out, his voice sharp with recognition.By then, everyone except Laura and little Lola had already realized the same thing, their eyes narrowing slightly as the implication began to settle in.‘Why would the CCIB be there?’ Williams wondered, his brows furrowing deeply.‘What’s going on?’ Susan
Chapter 1253 – Four Bombs
*****The Blackwoods were understandable. Their motives were practically written in bold letter, but the Greystones… their involvement didn’t align cleanly with anything he knew.He replayed possibilities, motives, and hidden intentions, but nothing clicked, and for someone like Xavier, that was mildly irritating.After a few seconds, he gave up.‘No point racking my brain over something I can’t deduce,’ he decided calmly, lazily dismissing the thought as easily as he would brush dust off his sleeve.With that, his gaze shifted back to the television.It was on break.Right now, a loud, cheerful advertisement played across the screen, completely out of place against the emotional turmoil filling the room. The contrast felt almost jarring.A smiling family happily drinking juice, a man laughing over discounted furniture, and someone shouting about limited-time offers like the world hadn’t just tilted off its axis.It was completely absurd, and then…The break ended.A second
Chapter 1252 – Xavier’s Confusion
*****At this moment, whether it was Grace, her mother, her father, David, Laura, or even little Lola…Every single one of them stood frozen like lifeless statues… unable to move, blink, or make even the slightest sound.Their eyes had widened so much that it honestly felt like a miracle they hadn’t popped out and rolled across the floor.Absolutely no one had seen any of this coming.Not even Xavier.Yes… he knew about the Harrisons.That part wasn’t surprising… after all, he had arranged it himself, though not exactly the way they had executed it. He had only intended for them to put the Oriens in their place and eliminate any form of scandal against Grace and her company.But the Blackwoods… and the Greystones…That part was completely outside his expectations.Xavier’s gaze remained fixed on the screen, but his thoughts were already moving.‘Perhaps the Blackwoods are easier to understand,’ the thought suddenly crossed his mind. ‘They’re likely using this opportunity to
