Ronan Kingston rapidly typed out a string of words and hit send.
In the bar, Julian Kingston saw the screen light up and casually opened it. It was another ssage from Ronan Kingston—
[Bro, Sis-in-law is performing at the newcor party tomorrow, not sure which program. Co by at 7 PM tomorrow, and I’ll save you a seat.]
Julian Kingston’s eyes lit up when he saw this ssage.
He was just worrying about an excuse to et Sumr Monroe, and now the opportunity was right in front of him!
Julian Kingston didn’t reply to Ronan Kingston’s ssage and directly transferred one million over.
Ronan Kingston, seeing the one million transfer, contentedly put away his phone and began writing a small English essay seriously.
He was creating opportunities for Julian Kingston, not to ask him to persuade the family to let him join the military.
He simply admired Sumr Monroe and wanted her to beco his sister-in-law.
Having a sister-in-law like that would be a matter of pride.
Yet Mio Osborne, sitting at the podium, grew increasingly displeased with Sumr Monroe.
Especially thinking about Damian Knight’s threats and his claim that Sumr Monroe could help him get a certificate, he felt even more uneasy.
How disgusting it was to have the student he least favored helping him!
Mio Osborne took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and decided not to look at Sumr Monroe.
Out of sight, out of mind!
...
On the other side.
The Hughes Family.
Upon learning of Coralie Hughes’ car accident, Evan Hughes imdiately fainted.
The Hughes Family was in chaos, but fortunately, Evan Hughes’s heart was much improved from Sumr Monroe’s last treatnt, and the doctors soon revived him.
Evan Hughes looked at the white ceiling above, thinking he had had a terrible nightmare.
He struggled up from the bed and called for the butler.
"Prepare the car! I need to go to the ntal institution right away to see Coralie!"
The butler, hearing this, felt his recently calm emotions surge again, tears streaming down as he said, "Master, the young miss is already gone, she’s gone... I’ve already sent people to collect the young miss’s remains, but I’m afraid we can’t piece together a complete body..."
Evan Hughes stood by the bed, realizing he wasn’t dreaming, and shouted, "Beast! Mason Monroe that beast!!!"
As he shouted, his blood surged, and he fainted again.
When he awoke again, Evan Hughes seed to have aged ten years in an instant.
This ti, the butler dared not ntion Coralie Hughes, but Evan Hughes calmly said, "Tell the people who went to carefully search, make sure to gather all of Coralie’s remains."
The butler nodded, suppressing his sobs, "Yes, Master!"
"And one more thing," Evan Hughes closed his eyes and said, "Dismiss all the servants at ho. I, a single person, don’t need so many people serving . As for company matters, tell them I’m not going to the company anymore, let the other board mbers take over."
The butler was shocked, "No, Master, if you do this, the Hughes Group will be in chaos!"
"Let it be." Evan Hughes sighed heavily and said, "I’m all alone, having so much money is useless, whatever happens to the Hughes Group in the future, let fate decide."
The butler wanted to persuade him, but ultimately said nothing, carrying out Evan Hughes’s orders.
Overnight, the Hughes Group’s stock market plumted, never to recover its forr glory.
The Hughes Family, forever removed from the circle of power in Crestfall’s nobility.
...
ntal Institution.
Stella Monroe heard about the Hughes Family’s situation from Felix Jennings.
She clutched Felix Jennings’ sleeve in fear and said, "It was Sumr Monroe! It must have been Sumr Monroe who did this! She’s a devil who devours people without leaving any bones!!"
