Manfred immediately understood the reason. He smirked at Sterling. "At least you figured it out before it was too late."
Sterling's hatred for Manfred burned fiercely. There was no longer a need to keep up the pretense. His voice dripped with malice. "Manfred, you came alone, didn't you? Do you really think I can't make you disappear without a trace right here and now?"
"You don't have the ability," Manfred replied coldly, his tone laced with superiority.
It was as if Sterling's petty tricks weren't even worth his time.
Sterling sneered. "Manfred, you're not leaving Everholm today."
He raised his hand and gave a sharp whistle.
Immediately, shadows emerged from the darkness—his hidden guards.
Vivian's heart skipped a beat at the sight of them.
However, Manfred remained unfazed, barely sparing them a glance. "Your father died half an hour ago. And as we speak, your brothers are scrambling back to Bowman Residence."
The meaning was clear—if Sterling didn't return now, he might not have a home to go back to.
Sterling's expression darkened. "How did they find out he was assassinated?"
According to his plan, no one but him should have known about the assassination. The moment Edson died, Sterling was supposed to be the first at his bedside, securing his position as the rightful heir.
But now, somehow, word had spread.
He immediately glanced at the guards surrounding him and barked, "Return to Everholm!"
At his command, the hidden guards immediately retreated with him.
Before leaving, he shot Vivian and Manfred a venomous glare.

Can more chapters be uploaded please . I have been anxiously waiting to read more. Thank you...
More chapters please...
Is the author going to finally portray Skylark as a brave woman who can argue and communicate like a normal person in this real world? Hoping so.......
I don't like this story portraying Skylark's personality as too weak, too naive, Can't even defend herself Like accepting every humiliation from Vera's schemes and injustice without saying anything or doing anything. I wonder who is the protagonist in this novel, Vera or Skylark....
