LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

Upon hearing this, all the men and women who had come to attend the class reunion looked bewildered. What was Jun Chester saying? Even if it were a billion, ten billion, a hundred billion… Lyvia could afford it? What’s going on? Has the long-unseen Lyvia become a super-rich woman? How could that be possible? Take for instance what Lyvia was wearing today… Although it looked very gorgeous, it seemed to be unbranded, like some cheap find from who knows where! How could she possibly afford billions of funds?

At this time, Jane Smith trembled all over, her beautiful face filled with panic and shame. At this point, she had nothing to say! Jun Chester looked at Jane Smith coldly and asked, “Do you realize your mistake?” Jane Smith’s face was full of misery. Suddenly, she burst into tears and said, “Kill me!” The room fell silent.

At this moment, Lyvia suddenly spoke, “She’s a sister to me, let her go.” After saying this, Lyvia turned and left, filled with deep disappointment. “Lyvia!” Seeing Lyvia heading outside, Jane Smith mustered her courage, stood up, and called out to her.

Lyvia did not turn back, just left one sentence behind. “Jane, back in college, you said your father was framed. No one believed you, but I did. However, today, our sisterly relationship ends!” After saying this, Lyvia, with tears in her eyes, walked out of Rosemary Garden. Jane Smith stared at Lyvia’s retreating figure without blinking.

“Ahh!” Jane Smith suddenly screamed. Her voice was piercing! At this moment, Jane Smith… completely broke down. But… no one paid her any attention. Abbie glanced at Jane Smith with disappointment, then left. Marie also looked at Jane Smith with disappointment… and likewise, departed. Jane Smith’s face was ashen.

At this moment, Jane Smith truly felt that she had lost face to the world! Her closest and most trusted friends, all had left her! Jane Smith looked at Jun Chester and said with a bitter smile, “This is even more painful than killing me!” Jun Chester replied, “A mistake is a mistake.” Jane Smith shouted, “I stole, that’s my mistake! But why don’t you ask why I stole?” Jun Chester said indifferently, “That’s none of my business, all I know is, what you stole, belongs to my wife.”

Jane Smith closed her eyes in despair and said something unexpected, “Actually, I’m not that despicable!” At this point, Jane Smith laughed at herself, “Ha, what’s the use of telling you this now?” Jane Smith suddenly opened her eyes, looked at the nearby Dragon Pool and said to herself, “I heard that Dragon Pool is as deep as an abyss. I’ve been so tired all these years, it’s time to end it!”

Upon hearing this, everyone present was taken aback. Lyvia, who had just walked out of Rosemary Garden, suddenly turned back upon hearing this. But… it was too late. Jane Smith was already standing at the edge of Dragon Pool. With just a leap, she could… end it all! “No!” Lyvia screamed. Marie and Abbie’s faces changed drastically.

Jane Smith turned her head to look at Lyvia, Marie, and Abbie, then murmured, “I’m sorry!” As she finished speaking, Jane Smith took a step forward. But at this moment, Jun Chester suddenly appeared behind Jane Smith. “You still owe my wife money, dying like this would be too easy for you!” As he said this, Jane Smith suddenly felt someone grasp her waist. Then, her body was enveloped by a broad embrace. She didn’t die!

And at this moment, Lyvia and the others returned. In the face of life and death, previous grievances among sisters didn’t seem that important anymore. Marie, both angry and annoyed, glared at Jane Smith. Slap! A resounding slap landed on Jane Smith’s face. “Have you gone crazy?” Marie shouted at Jane Smith.

Jane Smith, seemingly indifferent to pain, smiled bitterly at Marie, then turned to Lyvia and Abbie and said, “In reality, I love you all dearly, but fate has its designs! You don’t understand my circumstances, and you can’t save my life!” With that, Jane Smith pointed to the six-carat pink diamond ring and said, “That ring is a fake. Of course, it can be considered real.”

Everyone present was astounded.

Only Jun Chester remained calm. He let go of Jane Smith and said, “It’s good to recognize and correct one’s mistakes.” Then he asked, “Where is my wife’s real diamond ring?”

Jane Smith looked at Jun Chester in surprise and blurted out, “You… You saw through it all along?”

Lyvia looked at Jun Chester in confusion, asking, “What on earth are you two talking about?”

Not just Lyvia, everyone present was puzzled.

What was happening?

Jun Chester pointed to the so-called real diamond ring on the scene, calmly telling Lyvia, “Although this ring looks the same as yours, the pink diamond on this ring is flawed. That is to say, it’s also a fake. Of course, it is a real diamond, but its value is far less than the one I gave you!”

Lyvia stood there, dumbfounded, “So, from the beginning to the end, there were three diamond rings? The one I’m wearing is fake, and the other one here, although a real diamond, is not the one you gave me?”

Jun Chester nodded, then turned to Jane Smith and asked, “Where is the real diamond ring that belongs to my wife?”

Jane Smith did not answer. Instead, she said, “Stop asking. Just accept the loss or turn me over to the South Lordran Special Security Agency! The debt I owe you in this life, I’ll repay in the next, even if I have to work as a beast of burden!”

With these words, Marie suddenly began to cry!

Looking at Jane Smith, her eyes were filled with complex emotions, a mixture of love and hate!

Jane Smith glanced at Marie and asked, “Why are you crying?”

Marie said, “I cry for your bitter fate, you bastard. To save a corrupt criminal, you’d do anything! You first schemed against me, bankrupting my company while you fled with the money, and now you won’t even spare Lyvia. In your eyes, does anyone matter more than that man?”

Jane Smith’s shoulders shuddered, “So, you knew all along. But, there is one thing you’re not as good as Lyvia at. Lyvia used to believe in me. You never did. You always thought that my father was a corrupt criminal!”

Smack! Marie slapped Jane Smith again, heartbroken, “You are heartless!”

Jane Smith, her eyes reddening, said word by word, “If betraying my conscience can free the man who raised and protected me, I, Jane Smith, am prepared to betray anyone!”

With that, Jane Smith suddenly looked at Jun Chester and said, “Jun Chester, weren’t you asking where your wife’s diamond ring went? I’ll tell you now. I sold it to Mycintia Auction House for a hundred million! Do you know what I did with that money? I hired people to break into a prison, South Lordran’s Octagon Prison!”

“My father, Crane Smith, was once a big shot in South Lordran. He never took a penny that wasn’t his, never did anything wrong. However, he offended a powerful figure. You’d never guess who – Ian Mills! The former high-ranking official in Lordran, Ian Mills!”

“Yes, you are formidable, but can your power compare to the machinery of the state?”

“Ian Mills slandered my father as a corrupt official and personally sent him to the Octagon Prison. This is a grievous injustice! But who in this world can stand up for me and my father?”

“Alas, I, Jane Smith, am a mere woman. I am powerless. No matter how hard I struggle in this life, I can’t avenge my father! I don’t even have the qualifications to meet Ian Mills!”

“Tell me! Besides prison breakout, what else could I have done?”

“Could I report to the Supreme Lord? Could I even see him?”

“My life as Jane Smith, in this dog-like state, is all due to the cruelty of this world! I hate, I hate Ian Mills, I hate the so-called major clans in the capital, but what can I do? Tell me, what can I do?”

“Now, do you have anything else to ask me?”

“If all goes well, tonight, my father will be rescued. As long as he can get out of there, as his daughter, I am ready to die without regrets!”

“You stopped me from ending my life, but can you stop those from the South Lordran Special Security Agency? Can you, stop the soldiers of South Lordran?”

“I, Jane Smith, am destined to die!”

“Hahahaha…”

At that moment, Jane Smith was nearly hysterical.

Pitiful, lamentable!

Everyone was moved by her plight, but no one dared to interfere-except for Jun Chester and Lyvia!

At that moment, Jane Smith’s mistakes remained mistakes.

But Lyvia had chosen to forgive.

Suddenly, Lyvia hugged Jane Smith, gently stroking her long hair, and said, “My dear sister, I understand, I understand everything.”

After Jane Smith had laughed uproariously, she began to sob uncontrollably. “I’m sorry! I’m sorry!”

Lyvia looked towards Jun Chester.

Jun Chester gave Jane Smith a deep look, sighed softly, and walked away.

Jun Chester never imagined that this Jane Smith had such a dramatic story hidden within her.

Her father was wronged!This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

As his daughter, she had no way to seek justice, so she ended up resorting to theft to raise money, and then broke into prison to save her father!

Ian Mills, you’ve harmed many!

Taking a deep breath, Jun Chester turned back to look at Jane Smith and asked, “Who did you hire to do this?”

Jane Smith was so busy crying that she didn’t hear Jun Chester’s question.

Just as Jun Chester was about to say something else.

A woman in white, with long hair like a waterfall, suddenly walked into Rosemary Garden.

Phoenix Myers!

Everyone present noticed Phoenix Myers and was taken aback.

Wasn’t this the woman in the group photo with the Supreme Lord and the Thompson family in the Rosemary Garden hall, sitting next to the Supreme Lord?

The First Princess of Lordran, Phoenix Myers?

The First Female General of Lordran, Phoenix Myers?

Ten years have passed! Although Jun Chester’s appearance has changed a lot, Phoenix Myers has basically not changed.

Jane Smith also noticed Phoenix Myers, and then, her crying suddenly stopped.

The daughter of the Supreme Lord…

Phoenix Myers?

Why is she here?

Just at this moment, Phoenix Myers walked towards Jun Chester without any expression on her face and called out, “Master.”

Boom!

The scene was in an uproar!

Master?

The First Princess of Lordran, calling this Jun Chester, my father?

Jun Chester looked at Phoenix Myers in confusion and asked, “How did you know I was here?”

Phoenix Myers did not rush to answer, instead she looked in the direction of where Lyvia was, hesitated for a moment, but still called Lyvia, “Mrs. Chester.”

Lyvia turned her head to look at Phoenix Myers, and then… there was no more.

There was no way. In Lyvia’s eyes, even though Phoenix Myers was her junior, she didn’t want to talk to Phoenix Myers.

This had to do with a woman’s sixth sense.

Lyvia believed that Phoenix Myers must still have feelings for Jun Chester.

So… interacting with a romantic rival? That’s just looking for trouble.

Seeing that Lyvia didn’t pay her any attention, Phoenix Myers bit her lip, walked in front of Lyvia under the watchful eyes of everyone, and called again, “Mrs. Chester!”

As she spoke, she even bowed.

Lyvia said irritably, “Don’t call me like that, I don’t know you.”

Phoenix Myers spoke as if in a fit, “Then I’ll call you Aunt Lyvia. You may not recognize me, but I recognize you!”

At this moment, Jane Smith, standing beside Lyvia, was utterly dumbfounded.

Aunt Lyvia?

What… was going on?

Meanwhile, Jun Chester seemed troubled by the relationship between Lyvia and Phoenix Myers. Frowning, he said to Phoenix Myers, “She doesn’t like you, and you know that! If you have something to say, just say it!”

Phoenix Myers snorted coldly, pointed at Jane Smith who was standing beside Lyvia, and turned to Jun Chester, “I came here for her. I received news that there was a prison breakout at Octagon Prison. It is suspected that Jane Smith orchestrated it!”

Jun Chester’s face darkened immediately and he asked coldly, “Were there many casualties?”

Phoenix Myers nodded and said, “Almost all of the culprits are dead, only one survived. The guards at Octagon Prison were unscathed.”

Only then did Jun Chester breathe a sigh of relief. He waved his hand and said, “Alright, I understand. You can go now.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene fell into dead silence.

Who exactly was Jun Chester?

How could he seem like the superior of Lordran’s First Princess?

Everyone was dumbstruck!

What was… happening?

Only Marie suddenly remembered the photograph she had received in the group chat before. The man sitting next to the Supreme Lord was Jun Chester?

Just then, Phoenix Myers, never one to mince words, said something to Jun Chester.

“James Myers, that bastard, heard about your visit to the Chronicle Club. He said he’s coming over to have a meal with you. Do… do you have time to have a meal with him?”

As soon as she said this, Lyvia’s classmates almost fainted.

Especially Marie and Jane Smith… their minds went blank.

Why would the Supreme Lord James Myers want to come over to have a meal with Jun Chester, and why would the Supreme Lord’s daughter ask Jun Chester if he had the time to dine with the Supreme Lord?

What kind of situation was this?

Did someone need to agree to have a meal with the Supreme Lord?

While everyone was in shock, Jun Chester said casually.

“I don’t have time!”

Boom!

The entire room was stunned!

But it wasn’t over yet. Phoenix Myers walked up to Jun Chester, pleading, “Master, dear master, please go, won’t you? After knowing about that woman Eloise Hawson’s situation, I don’t know how to face my father anymore!”
