Chapter 186: Maeve’s Suspicion
The next morning, Maeve woke up groggy.
She did not know why, but she had felt a strange voice in her mind last night. She did not know if it was her dream or if the two sisters next door were too noisy at night, but she did not sleep well the entire night.
When she came to the living room, she realized that the two sisters were eating breakfast. They were wolfing down their food like workers who had done heavy construction work. They were far from their usual graceful state of chewing slowly.
Moreover, the two of them were in very different conditions. Their faces were like flowers that had been watered, beautiful and alluring.
However, they looked tired as if they had not slept for the entire night.
Seeing this, she asked the two of them suspiciously, “Were the two of you fooling around last night? It felt like you were tearing down a house.”
Hearing this, the sisters shook their heads.
Very seriously, Nina denied, “Aunt… we… didn’t… we slept very early.”
“Hmm?” Maeve frowned, “Nina, what’s wrong with your throat?”
She had used it too much last night. After waking up today, Nina’s voice was a little hoarse.
But they could not let her know about this.
Seeing that Nina could not find an excuse, her sister, Jessica, quickly said, “It’s probably because she ate too much yesterday and hurt her throat.”
“Yes, yes, I ate too much.” Nina quickly nodded.
“Seriously, don’t eat so much at once in the future. This is only a low-level Energy Zone. The quality of the food here is not very good. It’s not as safe as the food in the high-level Energy Zone. Eat less for breakfast.”
Maeve sat across from Nina and instructed her earnestly. Nina quickly asked her sister for help.
Jessica quickly stood up and said, “Aunt, let me help you get a sandwich.”
This was a ploy to change the subject, but to Jessica’s surprise, as soon as she rose, she felt soreness from her muscles. After the intense workout last night, she had yet to recover.
This detail was immediately captured by Maeve.
“Jessica, what happened to your leg?”
“It’s okay, Aunt. My legs are numb from sitting for too long. I’ll be fine in a while.”
Maeve looked at her and frowned. She had a feeling the sisters were different today. They looked strange.
Just like that, the three of them quickly finished breakfast.
In order to avoid Maeve, Jessica and Nina found an excuse to go out and see the scenery.
Maeve still felt something was wrong, so she went to the sisters’ room curiously.
When she entered the room, she actually smelled a strange smell.
Having never experienced such a thing, Maeve had no idea what it was.
However, she was curious about the source of the smell.
Maeve could not help but look around. When she looked under the bed, her pupils constricted.
Heavens!
How could there be such a thing here?!
There was a used condom in Maeve’s vision!
Could it be that last night…
Although Maeve had never experienced such a thing, she knew about condoms. Now that such a thing had appeared in this room, did that mean the two girls had done that?
“Impossible, impossible, definitely impossible.”
Shocked, Maeve quickly rejected her idea.
This was because when they were preparing to move in, this place had already been checked. In other words, there was no one else here last night.
Moreover, there were more than a dozen bodyguards guarding outside the villa. It was impossible for anyone to enter.
Therefore, this should have been left behind by the previous owner of this house.
After all, this villa had only been recently bought as a temporary rest area. Moreover, it was a house in a low-level Energy Zone. It was normal for it to be this dirty.
…
In another villa, Lorne had expended a lot of energy yesterday, so he slept until noon today.
After he woke up, he learned from the information that Jessica and the others had already left.
Lorne did not feel any pity. After all, he would be heading to the high-level Energy Zone in a few days. At that time, he would be able to meet the sisters often.
It had to be said that the daughter of the richest family was indeed unforgettable, especially to a young man like Lorne.
But now was not the time.
Yesterday, he had just finished dealing with the business at the shop. After going online today, he would begin leveling up Aisha.
Moreover, he had to obtain information about the gnomes. If time permitted, he wanted to go to the gnomes.
While thinking, Lorne arrived at a high-level restaurant and happily ate a delicious meal.
While he was eating, a few business executives in suits were discussing the topic of “Divine Realm”.
“Our company is also preparing to invest in the Divine Realm.”
“Yes, the market is too saturated in reality. We have to enter a new market to find a chance of survival.”
“In the end, it’s all because of Boss’s poor judgment. If not for that player called [Tyrant] earning tens of millions, he would not have made this decision.”
“I also did not expect that Tyrant would have his own shop so early. Moreover, I heard that the sales of that shop yesterday reached 50.55 million dollars!”
“More than 50 million? Wow, the profit is probably more than 10 million at least. It’s even more profitable than an excellent medium-sized enterprise!”
“This is nothing. I heard that a corporation wants to invest in his shop. It seems that they want to invest 500 million dollars, and they only want 30% of the shares!”
“Gosh! Doesn’t this mean that this shop’s market value has reached 1.5 billion?”
“This Tyrant has really made a killing. He became rich overnight!”
A group of professional executives who were still working in the company were also attracted by the income of ten million dollars. They chatted happily and excitedly.
However, at the end of the topic, someone else broke the news.
“Have you heard? Someone is offering a reward to find out Tyrant’s real identity. The price seems to be 10 million alliance dollars.”
“An identity is so valuable?!”
“Perhaps someone doesn’t want Tyrant to live. His game progress is too fast for others, and he has snatched the profits of the big shots.”
“I think it was the World Destruction Guild who did it. I heard they have an illegal background and were cheated by Tyrant yesterday. With their temper, they will definitely not let Tyrant go.”
“Who knows? There are so many benefits involved. I can understand if anything happens.”
“…”
Hearing their conversation, Lorne became more wary. Although he and Jessica were close enough, he had to hide his identity in the game.
No matter what, he could not put himself in danger.
In addition, when he had time, he could also inquire about the information about the World Destruction Guild. When the strength he materialized in the future was stronger, he had to let these guys know the consequences of angering him!
