The Heiress's Return: From Zen to Zenith

Chapter 876: 429 Misunderstanding_1 Chapter 876: 429 Misunderstanding_1 “Is this the famed Nine Sets Meal?” Brixton Alvarez stared at the sumptuous spread across the table.

Every dish was so delicately created, it gave one pause before reaching out with their chopsticks.

Brixton swallowed hard, sharing a longing glance with Dallyn opposite him.

Aubree Groove poured a cup of tea for Peter Aria, “Dr.

Aria, you seem lost in thought ever since we left the hotel.

Is something bothering you?”

Brixton unconsciously glanced at Peter.

“That’s just his personality, always wearing a scowl, like everyone owes him eight million.” Brixton lamented.

“Anyway, let’s eat.

Dallyn sneakily shot a look at Aubree.

Aubree smiled, “It won’t be as good once it cools down.”

With that permission, Dallyn eagerly dug in, sighing in satisfaction.

“I’ve finally tasted the Nine Sets Meal, I can die without any regrets now.”

What a win.”

Aubree just smiled, remaining silent.

“Mistress, aren’t you eating?”

Aubree, who had been sipping her tea, replied casually, “I’m not hungry.”

Fairies live on dew; such common food could hardly spoil a fairy’s stomach.

Dallyn bit into a chunk of shark fin aggressively.

“I keep feeling like I’ve seen that female writer, Romilly Powell, somewhere before.

She looks a bit like Dr.

Aria, but there is still a big difference.

I’ve noticed there are so many unrelated people in the world who look alike.”

Dallyn unconsciously glanced at Aubree beside him, “Mistress, you actually look quite like Dr.

Aria too.

If we cover the eyes, the resemblance is about 60%.”

Aubree’s most striking feature is her eyes, often causing people to ignore her looks.

Actually, she shares the same lofty nose as Peter, sharply sloping down from between her brows, like a solitary snowy peak, radiating an unparalleled chilliness.

Such timely revelation can’t help but evoke measured acknowledgment of nature’s craftsmanship.

Peter, momentarily taken aback, swiftly looked towards Aubree.

Dallyn was captivated by the striking beauty before him.

No matter how many times he looked, it was always stunning.

“It’s hard to capture the essence of a dragon or a tiger in a sketch, there tends to be a common factor in all beauties, and I might just be a random mud figure created casually by the Goddess Nuwa (Creator of mankind in Chinese mythology).”

Looking at the beautiful faces of Dr.

Aria and the Mistress, Dallyn suddenly felt embarrassingly coarse in their company.

Suddenly, Aubree stood up, “You guys take your time.

I am going to the restroom.”

“Dr.

Aria, you should eat.

This bear paw cooked in shark fin is the highlight here.

Even money won’t guarantee you get to taste it,” Dallyn, his mouth full of food, called out to Peter.

Peter frowned lightly and said: “Dallyn, have you heard of the name Marshella Yates?”

“Clatter” The chopsticks fell on the table.

Dallyn quickly bent down to pick them up, his face somewhat flustered, and chuckled nervously, “Dr.

Aria, why do you suddenly ask about her?”

Has Marshella Yates become that famous?

Brixton was confused, Marshella Yates?

Who?

With his long fingers wrapped around the teacup, Peter’s eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and his thin lips were tightly pursed.

His expression showed nothing out of the ordinary, but somehow it caused Dallyn to feel a wave of anxiety.

There was something dangerously attractive about Dr.

Aria in this state.

“People casually mention her; she seems an intriguing character.

If she’s still alive now, she would be about my age.”

Peter’s tone was extremely gentle, easily disarming Dallyn’s defenses.

Dallyn had gotten to know Dr.

Aria quite well over the past half month and held him in high regard.

It would be challenging to find another man who was as gentle, meticulous, and chivalrous as him.

Besides, right now, Marshella Yates wasn’t exactly a secret to The Rintos, and with the reemergence of the Green Dragon Order, more and more people are learning about Yates.

“Luckily, Mistress isn’t here.

You must never mention Marshella Yates in front of her.

She is the murderer of Mistress’s father.” Dallyn whispered.

Peter maintained his composure.

It was Brixton, surreptitiously eavesdropping, who gasped in surprise.

“So she’s the one who killed Pindo Rinto?

Is she that powerful?”

How Pindo Rinto died was known only to the Rintos.

The outside world was kept in the dark.

After Virginia Frost’s scandal blew up, someone online disclosed the truth behind Pindo Rinto’s death, introducing the name Marshella Yates, but due to certain restrictions, it did not widely circulate.

Very few people knew the name, Marshella Yates.

“Hush, keep your voice down,” Dallyn raised his index finger and said mysteriously, “Dr.
