Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss
Chapter 1192 - Chapter 1192 Chapter 1164 Directly Related to This Thing

Chapter 1192: Chapter 1164: Directly Related to This Thing (Four Updates) Chapter 1192: Chapter 1164: Directly Related to This Thing (Four Updates) Upon hearing the price, Mario Yuno could not help but blink, and Arlong felt secretly elated inside.

Look!

His older sister had said he had no aesthetic sense, but even her husband, with his Double Masters, must think this thing isn’t worth the price, right?

But the next second, Mario Yuno demonstrated his astonishingly thick skin. He walked over to Kiara, took one of the items, carefully examined it, and took in a serious breath.

“My God, upon closer inspection, a rich artistic aura hits you right in the face, filled with post-modernist aesthetics and carrying an abstract style. Good, not bad, truly worthy of my daughter-in-law’s noble, elegant, and transcendent taste!”

I’m done! Arlong collapsed onto the Sofa, and Camden glanced at him smugly, thinking, learn from this, you fool! If you want to deal with women, especially the vindictive and petty ones, you must always follow the principle of praising them rather than speaking the truth!

“Brother-in-law, how can you say such things against your conscience, doesn’t your heart ache?” Arlong could no longer stand it. Wasn’t his brother-in-law spoiling his sister too much? How could he praise something so clearly overpriced and likely a scam?

“I’ve long told you to read more! Look, when I see this, I can immediately say that it showcases the essence of thousands of years, praising your sister for gathering all of the finest things under heaven, feeling the world in their entirety through this one object. And you, besides calling her a money-wasting woman, can’t say anything else!”

Mario Yuno mercilessly ridiculed his brother-in-law. It’s scary not to have any culture!

Kiara watched with a cold eye as these two played off each other. This guy Camden was just finding ways to say she was squandering money; she wasn’t going to stoop to their level and bicker!

At that moment, Uncle Woody Junes, who owned an antique jade store, called.

“Uncle, did you see the photos I sent? Have you confirmed the origin of this object? Mhm, okay, got it.”

Kiara chatted briefly and hung up the phone, then sat on the Sofa, closing her eyes in thought.

She had just sent photos of these two items to Uncle, whose response was similar to the shop clerk’s but more detailed.

Uncle said the patterns were handcrafted wooden objects from a neighboring country, and indeed they were not expensive. It was certain that the shop had conned a large sum of Money from Kiara.

But Uncle also supplied another piece of valuable information: this particular pattern was the totem of a certain village and could only be found there.

Kiara tried hard to connect these clues; it seemed as though bits of information were floating around in her mind, and an answer was on the verge of coming out.

Why was she interested in this totem? Because when she saw it at Grace Little Phoenix Bradford’s home, it felt very familiar to her. Where had she seen it before?

Kiara opened her eyes, intending to discuss the matter with Mario Yuno and hoping he could help her sort out her thoughts. However, the moment she opened her eyes, she saw Ethan Yuno, accompanied by Arlong, placing the carvings on the floor in front of her, one on each side. Mario Yuno bent down, pretending to worship, and the corners of Kiara’s mouth twitched.

“What are you doing?”

“I just feel that my daughter-in-law radiates a holy aura, and these items are like celestial boys and girls before you. We worship you to bring good fortune, like praying for luck to come~”

It’s like forwarding that lucky koi message…

Kiara kicked over, and Arlong laughed.

Was this the husband’s flattery backfiring on him?

Kiara felt that if she ever stopped being a Psychologist, she could easily write a book titled ‘The Joy of Clueless Youths’, as her Husband’s anecdotes were too numerous to record!

“You, get into the bedroom, and go cook!” Kiara pointed at Mario Yuno, telling him to go into the room.

“Sis, are you abusing a patient here? I only have one leg left, and you still want me to cook?” Arlong complained pityingly.

“Isn’t your hand still able to move even with a lame leg? Can’t you do it with a crutch?”

“It’s fine, Arlong, you watch some TV. After I finish talking with your sister, we’ll go out to eat.”

Kiara glared at Mario Yuno, “You wasteful Gentlemen White! Doesn’t going out cost money?”

“…” Camden glanced at the two broken pieces of wood in Kiara’s hands, thinking to himself that those two things were enough to cover several good meals out. Who’s the one being wasteful here!

But when he entered the room, and Kiara shared her doubts with him, Mario Yuno became serious as well.

“Now that you mention it, I also feel like I’ve seen this thing somewhere before.”

“But I really can’t remember where I’ve seen it… How about this, let’s try to remember together and see if we can find any clues.”

Kiara took out some paper and began to draw a timeline, marking down the last time she saw Grace Bradford’s little box and the recent events. With many things happening lately, they found it difficult to find any clues at once.

Mario Yuno rubbed Kiara’s temples for her, “Don’t stress yourself. If you can’t remember, just take your time. I’ll go cut some fruits for you.”

Kiara sat alone in front of the computer, feeling a bit puzzled.

Camden’s mind was known to never forget what he saw; he should have an impression of anything he had looked at just once, but this time he had no reaction at all. What was going on?

That agonizing sensation of having the answer on the tip of your tongue but being unable to say it was terrible. Kiara felt a sense of defeat, reminded of the time when Camden faced psychological barriers after combat; she had been sitting right here, with the same troubling thoughts, looking for a way out–wait, last time?!

Suddenly, Kiara remembered.

Last time there was an incident with Camden, she sat in front of the computer and sent a plea for help to Yuzo Joel. But before she sent that message, what did she do?

“Sis, are the clothes to be washed in the bucket in the bathroom?” Arlong asked, holding the clothes he had changed out of.

“Yes! Laundry!!” Kiara smacked her forehead, startling Arlong.

“Goodness, what’s with my sister? Brother-in-law, do you think my sister is like those people in martial arts movies who are driven mad with their practice, like she’s going for a head-smacking suicide?” Arlong asked Mario Yuno, who had just returned from cutting fruits.

Camden glanced at Kiara’s actions, “Hmm, it does resemble that a bit.”

Kiara was no longer concerned with what the two men were saying; she began rummaging through cabinets and drawers.

This scene wasn’t new at home; every time it happened, Camden’s head ached from watching his daughter-in-law’s destructive searching.

His daughter-in-law was a highly intelligent person, but perhaps because she focused all her attention on work and studies, she tended to overlook small details in everyday life, sometimes forgetting where she put things, which led to her creating a mess while searching.

“What are you looking for?”

“Nothing, just some materials for work–Camden, take Arlong to the canteen and order some dishes. We’re not going out to eat today.”

Mario Yuno narrowed his eyes slightly. He realized that his daughter-in-law was trying to deliberately send him away, but the considerate Camden didn’t ask why, and simply took Arlong with him.

No sooner had he left than Kiara resumed her frantic search.

Finally, Kiara understood why Camden, who always had a keen sixth sense, did not react when she brought home the wooden carvings. It was because the Baron incident had deeply affected Mario Yuno. Even though she had healed him, in Camden’s subconscious, he was deliberately avoiding anything related to that incident.

So now, what she was looking for was the photo Baron had left behind when he passed away. She finally remembered that day when she was doing Camden’s laundry and found a photo; the woman in the photo wore clothes with the same pattern as the one on the object.
