All Chapters of Nine Ungrateful Sisters: Chapter 451 - Chapter 460

Amara watched Jason's retreating figure and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.She had sensed real danger approaching and genuinely wanted him to leave. How had he come to that conclusion? Had she been underestimating him all along?"Irene, take the card. Leave Silverton immediately. The farther you go, the better. Wait for word from me." She pressed the bank card into Irene's hands and turned to follow Jason.Irene stood frozen, clutching the card as her thumb brushed across its surface. She studied Amara's face. There was not the slightest hint of a joke there. The panic churning inside her gradually gave way to resolve.Something serious enough that even Amara couldn't see a way out had happened. That was why she wanted Irene gone, to preserve the last remaining thread of Chamberlain blood."Amara, don't worry. I'll stay alive. And if you die, I swear I'll come back and make them pay."With the card in hand and little else to take, Irene grabbed a few changes of clothes and

Amara swayed on her feet. Nothing unfolding before her was anything she had prepared for.Stanley knew Oscar? And Oscar outranked him?The memory surfaced without warning. Yesterday, when Stanley had crossed paths with Oscar, he hadn't looked at him a single time.She had let that deceive her. She had mistaken it for indifference, assuming Stanley simply chose not to acknowledge Oscar's existence.Now she understood. It was not indifference at all. Stanley hadn't been in a position to meet Oscar's eyes.The dread she had carried all morning settled into something heavier, something tangible.Stanley had lied to her from the very beginning. He had known exactly who Oscar was and had only pretended otherwise.'He showed Oscar more respect than anyone else while pretending not to know him…' Amara's thoughts came to an abrupt halt."Hilda. That interview with Dr. Hoffman in Bitterridge. What exactly did he say? What was his grievance against our family?"The question came out shar

Oscar settled into his seat. Only after he sat down did the others behind him dare to do the same.Not one of them chose a seat in his row. Instead, they arranged themselves in the row directly behind him, orderly and unquestioning.Oscar crossed one leg over the other and swept his gaze across the room. No one met his eyes. His mere presence seemed to compress the air around him. People breathed when he breathed."What is this man's status? How can he command that kind of presence just by sitting there?""Isn't he the useless adopted son the Chamberlain family threw out? I heard they kicked him out because he was good for nothing. So what's going on here?""He walked in and immediately demanded a bloodline test for that Jason kid. He clearly came here to settle a score.""This is going to be interesting."The guests craned their necks, eager to see how the sisters would respond."Of course, Mr. Stone. Just give me a moment. I'll have them begin immediately." Stanley didn't fol

Jason froze at the gate. One more step, and he would be out.He had joined the family for money. Brotherhood, family honor, and the weight of a name had never meant anything to him.Now the man the family had thrown out like garbage had returned in triumph, backed by every powerful figure in Silverton.Actually, it wasn't just Silverton. Every powerful figure in Solareon deferred to the same man they had once dismissed as worthless.Even if Jason walked away today with the family fortune, would he live long enough to spend it?The family brought nothing but trouble, and he wanted out. But the world offered few clean exits. He couldn't bring himself to take that final step.Never mind the Solareon power players who had just risen to their feet. Right in front of him, the Draconox operatives Stanley had assigned as security watched him with cold, unblinking eyes. They tightened their grips on their weapons and stepped forward in unison.Jason's nerve didn't simply break. It dissol

"Chamberlain heir, please come forward. Blood verification will now commence."With the memorial portraits in place, the time had come for Jason to be formally welcomed into the family.Under normal circumstances, a bloodline test would never have been part of the ceremony. When a family held a naming ceremony of this scale, everyone understood that the verification had already been conducted privately and confirmed multiple times. There was no room for error.But today, Jason had no choice.Amara had barely begun explaining the process when two doctors Stanley had brought stepped forward and escorted Jason to the front without ceremony."Wait—"Before Amara could object, one of the doctors had already made a small cut on Jason's fingertip. Blood welled from the wound and dripped into the collection vessel they had prepared.It was an on-site test.Arthur was gone. Only his personal effects remained for comparison.Fortunately, Arthur had been a prominent figure in Silverton,
