Richelie Dunn never thought that she had to report her whereabouts to Roy Lewis.
She only felt that she had to explain things to the children. With Mrs. Walker at home, she could safely leave them in her care. As a result, she left quite freely. In the afternoon, she and Hugo Camrey settled in a villa on the outskirts of Lordon. At first, Richelie thought it was a rental house rented by Hugo, but after hearing the servants calling him Mr. Hugo, she realized it was his own private residence.
“Are you also from Lordon?”
Richelle was a bit surprised, as she had always assumed him to be the young master of a big family in Kindur.
“Sort of, my mother is from Lordon.”
Richelle knew the old families of Lordon well. She asked, “Which family is your mother from?”
“The Caroules in the south of the city. But my mother’s family didn’t think much of her when she first got married, so they didn’t really care about her!” As soon as Hugo mentioned this, Richelle understood why he could help her find out so much about the old stories. At the same time, he set up the stage for tonight’s drama in just one day.
speaking of the Caroules in the south of the city, they were a prestigious family that rivaled the Dunns in Lordon. In Lordon, there had been several generations of people who used the saying “South Caroules, North Dunns.” South Caroules referred to the Caroules in the south of the city, while North Dunns referred to the Dunns in the north.
Hugo, you sure are good at keeping secrets!”
Hugo let Richelle tease him without further discussing his background. Richelle went over all the prominent families of the Federation with the last name Camrey and roughly figured out the answer.

The two of them familiarized themselves with the layout of the house and then began to simulate the events of the evening. They went over the process roughly, and Hugo went out to meet his friends and make the remaining arrangements.
At around six in the evening, the party guests invited by Hugo began to arrive. Richelle sat in the study, setting up the surveillance screens of the various entrances and main areas of the villa on a large display, with multiple small screens.
Someone began playing the piano in the room at some point. In the emotive and passionate piano music, elegantly dressed men and women entered the villa.
Among these people, ninety percent of them were faces that Richelle was very familiar with.
For instance, Zach Mitchell, the second son of the Mitchells, Jennifer Rowen, the wealthy heiress of the Rowens, and Vidho Kingston, the third young master of the Kingston family. All of them had been guests at the Dunns’ parties or banquets in the past.
Of course, as another Ms. Dunn, but who had always been excluded by these rich young masters and ladies since childhood, Richelle could not mix with their circles.
And the one who could blend in with them was another Ms. Dunn, Kiara Dunn. Richelle sat in the study, leisurely savoring her tea and casually gazing at them. In the past, she and these people had only been acquaintances. Although she didn’t appreciate them, they hadn’t done any real harm to her, so they were not among her targets for tonight.
Soon, Kiara walked gracefully into the villa wearing a white strapless gown. As she entered, several young masters and ladies gathered around her.
It seemed that the shabbiness of the Dunns had not been exposed yet; those young masters and ladies who followed trends hadn’t taken the continuous drop in the Dunn Group’s stock price seriously. So they still treated Kiara like a princess.
Richelle increased the volume of the surveillance camera on Kiara, and heard Jennifer Rowen asking her,
“Kiara, where is Mr. Zadra? Didn’t he come with you?”
Mr. Zadra? Did she mean Marcus Zadra?
If so, then this Marcus Zadra was barely one of Richelie’s semi-targets. Speaking of which, Marcus Zadra had been chasing Kiara for almost ten years, and he’s still pursuing her?
Doesn’t he know that Kiara Dunn has always been coveting the position of the Lewis’ lady of the house, and Marcus Zadra was nothing but a backup plan! “He has a meeting with a client to sign a big project tonight, so he’il be a bit late.”
When others heard Kiara’s words, they couldn’t help but think of her and Marcus Zadra as a couple.
“My goodness, Mr. Zadra will soon take over the family business, right? Kiara, you can just marry into his family and be a young mistress. Why do you still help your father manage that small branch company?”
A sneer floated in Richelle Dunn’s eyes, a small branch company?
That was the company her parents specifically established for her years ago It used to have a good prospect, but after being taken over by Jayden Dunn and his wife, it went downhill and became lifeless today.
Kiara made a happy little woman look, but her mouth was full of disdain.
“He’s still far from it!”
Richelle clicked her tongue; after all these years, it seems Kiara still had Marcus Zadra under her thumb!
Inside the room, a few people gathered in a circle were complimenting the beautiful marriage between Kiara and Marcus Zadra. Outside, Hugo Camrey and Marcus Zadra walked in side by side.
Richelle turned down the volume on Kiara’s side and raised the volume between Hugo and Marcus Zadra.
She heard Hugo mentioning seemingly casually to Marcus Zadra, “Mr. Zadra, I saw Miss Dunn and Master Lewis together in Kindur a while ago. Since you have such a good relationship with Miss Dunn, could you help me introduce me to Master Lewis?”
Marcus Zadra’s face visibly darkened.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHeh, interesting!
Richelle took a sip of tea, laid back on the sofa, and listened to Marcus Zadra’s stiff response.
“Mr. Hugo, I really can’t help you with this!”
Then he left Hugo and strode towards Kiara.
After that, Hugo didn’t deliberately provoke Marcus Zadra anymore, but as the host of the party, he entertained up to seven or eight young masters and ladies with ease.
As a buffet party, there were naturally various foods, champagne, and cocktails.
Hugo changed his usual indolent demeanor and, after entertaining the guests, hovered attentively around Kiara, while Marcus Zadra sulkily dealt with other guests, occasionally glancing towards Kiara and Hugo.
Kiara enjoyed being pampered and chased by others like a star, and now with the handsome Hugo pursuing her passionately and using sweet words and fine wine as a weapon, she soon became intoxicated.
“Miss Dunn, there’s something I’d like to say to you privately.”
Hugo saw that the timing was almost right and lured Kiara in with lovesick words, following the original plan.
Kiara was always able to maneuver freely among various men, and she enjoyed this kind of attitude very much. At this moment, she was also very confident that she could control Hugo at her fingertips.
So, after being filled with alcohol and slightly drunk, Kiara followed Hugo into the back garden.
The dim yellow night light shone in the back garden, and as Hugo led her there, he seemed to suddenly remember something.
“Miss Dunn, please wait a moment. I’ll go in and get something.” Kiara thought he was going to get something to confess his love, so she nodded, and when Hugo left, she was the only person in the back garden. She sat on a swing made of rattan, holding the ropes with both hands, her head tilted and leaning against the side of the rope, humming a song with great satisfaction, her toes gently tapping the grass, and she slowly swayed with the swing.
Richelle, who had been waiting in the shadows for a while, gracefully “floated” past Kiara in a filmy red dress under the cover of a light mist!
