From Nun to Real Heiress: Expert at Turning the Tables

Chapter 814: 407 Bounty (Seventh Update)_1

“A servant? Do you think I’m blind? Can’t you at least come up with a convincing lie?”

Guele Rinto rolled her eyes.

“Guele, I’m a man, I have needs, that girl is just a tool for my satisfaction. The person I truly love will always be you.”

Guele huffed, “Don’t kid yourself, I wouldn’t believe those sweet words.”

Birch Cliff grabbed her hand and kissed it gently, “Do you believe me now?”

In public, he respectfully called her Miss Guele.

When they were alone, he affectionately called her Guele.

“Stop it.” Guele flounced flirtatiously, though it wasn’t exactly pretty.

With age catching up, it was impossible to compete with the younger crowd. Guele grabbed his tie, “Do you think I’m old?”

“For heaven’s sake, I never thought so.”

“I see that girl’s so young, her skin’s practically bursting with youthful vitality. Do you dare to say you’re not lured by her young body?”

“Guele, she’s nothing compared to you. She’s just a girl I picked up from the bar. Had Aunt Castillo not forced me; I wouldn’t have brought this pitiful, homeless girl back home.”

Guele’s eyebrows furrowed, “She loves poking her nose into other people’s business. Sooner or later, she’ll get what’s coming to her.”

Looking at the old woman in front of him, Birch felt a glimmer of disgust. But sweet words flowed effortlessly from his lips, making Guele flush.

“Do you still remember the Green Dragon Order?” Amidst the swirling emotions, Birch’s question brought Guele back to her senses.

She pushed Birch away, “Why suddenly bring this up?”

“If we can get the Green Dragon Order, even if Agave Rinto has a lot of help, it would be of no use.”

Guele sighed, “Unfortunately, the daughter of my uncle is dead, and this clue is lost.”

If she couldn’t get it, Agave Rinto definitely couldn’t either.

“No, there’s still one person.”

Guele sat up straight instinctively, “Who?”

“Marshella Yates.”

Guele almost laughed aloud, “Are you insane? Marshella’s been dead for over a decade, she’s already a skeleton.”

“Whether Marshella is dead or alive, no one knows. But every Rinto knows that Marshella was Master Iver’s confidante, and only she would know the whereabouts of the Green Dragon Order.”

Guele frowned, “Are you implying we should use Marshella’s name?”

The legend of the Green Dragon Order had been circulating within the Green Dragon Association. Aubree Groove’s return had brought the tale of the Order to light, setting her naturally against Agave.

Only the one possessing the Green Dragon Order deserves to be the Rinto’s leader, and inherit the Green Dragon Association.

It was not easy to overthrow Agave, who had established his dominance by killing Harry Rinto and the fact that he was Barton Rinto’s son, a legitimate heir to the family.

But if it was under the banner of the Green Dragon Order, things would be different.

Even Agave would have to acknowledge the Order.

Pindo Rinto, the founder and the rule maker, despite his notorious reputation, held a unique standing in the Rinto family.

Any successors must acknowledge his authority and bow down to him.

Thus, in the Rinto family, the Green Dragon Order was a symbol of the family head.

“No one has seen what the real Green Dragon Order looks like; if we say it is, it is.”

“Guele, don’t hesitate anymore, it’s now or never.”

Guele clenched her jaw, “Fine, we’ll do it your way.”

The door to the rest room opened, and Vanessa Aria walked out, smiling.

With her hair scattered over her shoulders, there was a disheveled beauty about her. Her eyes were red, as if she had cried, yet her face wore a satisfied smile.

Jenny Linggo approached her, “Miss Vanessa, are you and Dr. Aria alright?”

Vanessa gave her a sideways glance. Somehow, that gaze made Jenny feel a chill in her heart, accompanied by a sense of unease.

“Why, are you hoping that there’s something wrong?”

“Of course not, you’ve misunderstood, Miss Vanessa.”

Vanessa moved on, a hint of mockery curling up the corners of her mouth.

A hopeless fool.

“Miss Vanessa, there’s plenty of time. How about we have lunch together? My treat. Let me show you some hospitality.”

Vanessa replied coolly, “Little girl, thanks for the offer, but I have plans, I’m afraid I can’t have lunch with you.”

Jenny Linggo was somewhat disappointed, “Sister, can we add each other on WeChat? You’ve just arrived in Pethkids, you must be unfamiliar with the place…”.

Vanessa Aria interrupted her, “I know Pethkids better than you do.”

Jenny Linggo choked on her words, wondering why Vanessa Aria seemed like a different person after meeting Dr. Aria.

However, Vanessa Aria agreed to Jenny Linggo’s request. They added each other on WeChat, and Vanessa Aria left the hospital and got into a taxi.

Half an hour after Vanessa Aria left the hospital, Peter Aria, who had just bathed and changed his clothes, sat in front of his desk and turned on his computer.

He first logged into a foreign medical forum where he held high prestige. Frequently, people asked him academic-related questions for a high bounty.

Peter Aria answered a few representative questions without accepting any bounty.

At that moment, a notification popped up from the lower right corner, a private message from Ann.

If he logged in, it would show on the remote end, so his online status was quickly known.

He wouldn’t usually stay online for more than five minutes at any unpredictable time, so catching him online was down to luck.

Next to the message box was a hidden window, it looked like some third-rate ads on the webpage. After watching a brief erotic ad, Peter Aria closed his eyes, looking somewhat helpless.

The interface quickly refreshed, dominated by black, with a huge letter ‘Black’ conspicuously incorporating the middle of the page.

The bounty ranking was on the right, with a user called Ann ranking first.

The avatar was a blood handprint, chilling at first sight, even more so upon closer inspection.

The avatar in the private message was a blood handprint too.

It wasn’t a coincidence. The person who sent him the private message was Ann, who ranked first on the bounty list.

Peter Aria opened the private message.

Ann – Hi, Brain, it’s really not easy to catch you online. I’ve sent the stuff you wanted to your email, be sure to check. But your request is too difficult and dangerous, can I ask for more bounty?

The whole message was in English. This was the translation, supplemented by a cute face at the end.

Peter Aria typed on the keyboard – Thank you! Double the bounty.

Ann – Boss is generous[Throwing flowers]Ask me if you have any questions after reading, and add me on Gaga for convenience.

Gaga is an international chat software that automatically translates the entire conversation.

Peter Aria had Gaga on his phone, he gave his account to the other party, and the same bloody handprint avatar sent a friend request soon after.

He opened the email, the latest message was an encrypted compressed file sent anonymously. After decrypting, all the information was displayed before him.

Peter Aria spent half an hour to read through it carefully. His emotions were hard to calm down for a long time.

Peter Aria opened the Gaga software and sent a message to Ann.

— Is the source of the information reliable?

The reply came swiftly — Brain, are you questioning my professional ability? The number one bounty hunter on Black, would I fool you with fake news?

Peter Aria slumped in the chair, his face filled with sorrow. He let out a self-deprecating laugh.

God had played a big joke on him.

In this brief report, the cold mechanical Chinese characters depicted a girl’s tragic life.

He seemed to see the little girl on Cusmond Road who couldn’t find her brother and started crying out of fear.

A girl walked up to her and held her hand.

“Little sister, don’t cry. Would you like sister to help you find your brother?”

The little girl trusted her and obediently followed her.

Since then, the Arias lost their little princess, their mother cried until she went blind, and he spent the rest of his life filled with guilt.

The little girl had no idea that the big sister she trusted had such vicious intentions, as she was thrown into an orphanage to endure bullying and humiliation.

The pampered princess of the Arias turned into pitiful child everyone looked down on.

Then, one day, a man walked into the orphanage and selected ten orphans, she was one of them.

Ten years later, she killed her nine childhood companions with her own hands and became the fearsome “Rain God”.

She was too outstanding, undefeated in all tasks, killing invisibly with ease, and legends about her have never halted.

“So the famous Marshella Yates, is my little sister.”

Peter Aria laughed, a smile more painful than tears.

Marshella Yates, a mysterious woman who stirred up trouble in Green Dragon Association, went undercover for two years, killed Pindo Rinto with her own hands, and gained her fame in that battle. Afterwards, she disappeared without a trace.

Upon seeing that name, Peter Aria could no longer contain himself.

Aurora Brun, Aurora Brun… You’ve remembered all along.@@novelbin@@
