Chapter 344
The Isolated Riverdale in the east of Lovell City was an uninhabited area.
The surroundings were filled with unknown danger.
Under the night sky, a pitch–black castle stood quietly. There was nothing in the surroundings, and it was slightly cold there, making the castle look extremely sinister and terrifying.
The autumn wind blew, and the sound of insects could be heard from time to time.
A tall figure slowly walked over at an unhurried pace.
The man had sharp eyebrows and determined eyes, which were darkened and sharp. He was noble and mysterious, and he had a powerful aura that made people submit and fear him.
Who else could it be but Richard?
John followed him from a distance. He looked at the building in front of him and muttered to himself, “Why does he live in such a strange place? The castle is perfectly fine, but it’s so gloomy.”
The castle was Felix’s lair.
This time, Richard left Lovell City on the pretext of going on a business trip. He was not busy with work.
Instead, he was busy exterminating a group of bugs.
Among them, the most terrible scourge was Felix.
Not long ago, he was the one who drew up the death list.
For the legendary treasure box whose whereabouts were unknown, he had committed countless sins.
Previously, Royal Bay and Isolated Riverdale had minded their own business. But this time, Felix actually targeted Tiffany!
In that case, Richard couldn’t spare Felix.
Richard’s expression was gloomy as he approached the ancient castle step by step.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound in the quiet night, as if something was crawling on the ground.
John looked around and was shocked.
Not far ahead, more than ten terrifying bugs were crawling toward him and Richard. Their entire bodies were dark red, making them look extremely sinister in the middle of the night.
John was disgusted and quickly ran forward. “Richard, there are bloodbites on the ground!”
Richard raised his eyebrows slightly. With a light wave of his hand, those extremely terrifying insects instantly turned into powder. They were blown by a gust of wind and instantly disappeared.
Not a single trace was left behind.
“Any more?” he asked.
Stunned, John shook his head honestly. “No…”
The two of them continued walking.
When they approached the castle gate, the simple and gorgeous gate automatically opened.
John’s face was filled with vigilance. The gun in his hand was already on standby.
He said, “Richard, I’ll go in and check in case there’s a trap!”
Richard acted as if he did not hear John and calmly walked in.
His posture was elegant and his aura was powerful. He did not have the slightest nervousness about stepping into a terrifying enemy’s place. Instead, he gave off the noble aura of an emperor coming to patrol and making everyone kneel and submit.
John was slightly taken aback. His serious face was filled with obvious admiration.
He thought, ‘So what if Felix is vicious and cunning? Even if he’s powerful, he’ll only be beaten up in front of the true powerhouse!‘
In the castle, the lights gradually lit up.
As far as the eye could see, everything inside was exquisite and luxurious. It was so extravagant that it exceeded the imagination of ordinary people. Whether it was the rare murals on all four sides or the ground that was inlaid with gold, everything was extremely extravagant.
In front of the gate, there was a chair made of diamonds. Felix, who was dressed in black, was sitting there. Clearly, he had been waiting for Richard for a long time.
Mr. Hampton, it’s been a while.” Felix greeted him with a faint smile.
Richard did not say anything. After seeing Felix, he raised his hand gently, and Felix flew out of the chair uncontrollably.
In the next second, Richard grabbed his neck and said, “You’ve lived long enough. Go to hell now.”
When Richard’s cruel and heartless voice sounded, his expression did not change, but his grip tightened bit by bit.
Felix did not expect Richard to use a killing move right from the start. Richard did not give him any chance to react and said that he would kill him. It was simple and crude, swift and decisive.
“You…” Felix choked and used an extremely strange movement technique to escape from Richard’s grip. He quickly took a few steps back.
The pain in his neck was so obvious that he had to cough a few times to recover.
Felix said, “As expected, Mr. Hampton, you’re still as ruthless as ever.”
Felix surely knew that there must be a very deep mark on his neck.
However, Richard was clearly impatient and attacked him again. Felix tried his best to block it, but he could not withstand more than three moves from Richard before he was ruthlessly kicked away.
With a bang, the diamond chair Felix had been sitting on was knocked over, and cracks instantly appeared on the originally transparent and beautiful chair,
It was scrapped.
Felix fell to the ground and spat out a mouthful of black blood.
This was not the first time he had fought Richard.
Other than the last time when Felix poisoned him with schemes and injured him in the end, there was a huge disparity in strength between the two of them. He had never been Richard’s match.
Felix raised his head and saw John pointing the gun at him.
The trigger was pulled, and the bullet was about to pass through his forehead.
“Wait!” Felix shouted. Then, he looked at Richard. His face was so pale that it was almost demonic. There was a mysterious smile on his face when he said, “Mr. Hampton, I have a secret about the girl you care about the most. Don’t you want to hear it?”
In Lovell City, after Tiffany returned home, she locked herself in her room and did not go down for dinner. It was still Eric who held the tray and waited pitifully in front of her door for a long time before he was allowed to enter.
Eric called out, “Tiffany…”
Tiffany just said, “Leave it here.”
Tiffany sat on the bed, her slender fingers typing rapidly on the laptop keyboard.
Lines of words appeared on the screen.
This was a new script.
Last time, she said that she would show it to Mr. Lester, so she was writing it now.
However, in her frustration, the script she wrote was rejected time and time again.
It was more like an outlet.
However, she didn’t know what exactly she was venting.
Eric felt wronged and called out timidly again, “Tiffany?”
Tiffany took a deep breath and closed the laptop. Then, she looked up at her brother and asked in possible, “What’s wrong?”
as
gentle a tone as
The boy held the tray in his hands and refused to put it down. He looked like he would not leave if she did not eat.
Eric said, “Eat.”
Helpless, Tiffany could only lift the blanket and get out of bed. “Fine. I’ll eat.”
As she spoke, she sat at the table and started eating.
Only then did Eric smile. “That’s more like it.”

Tiffany finished all of the eggs and braised pork ribs. Then, she wiped her mouth and said, “Alright now. It’s time for you to sleep. Go back to your room now.”
Eric carried the empty plates and walked out. He did not forget to turn around and say, “Tiffany, I will always love you.”
Eric replied, “Okay.”
His tone was serious, as if he was taking an oath.
Tiffany was slightly stunned and could not help but feel touched
She sighed at her silly brother.
After Eric left, the door was closed again.
Tiffany looked down and smiled.
The next second, she turned off the lights and turned away from the window silently, without a trace.
There were some things she had to find out.
