Chapter 1193: Chapter 1165 This is not considered a leak Chapter 1193: Chapter 1165 This is not considered a leak Finally, Kiara found that photograph in the box at the very top of the wardrobe.

The bloodstain on the photograph was still visible, and Kiara compared it with the wooden carving.

They matched!

That is to say, Baron’s beloved and the box that Grace Bradford held in her hands both originated from the same place.

But this was of little help to Kiara. Many people came from the same place, which couldn’t prove that Grace Bradford was engaged in unlawful activities.

Having made such an effort, and hoping for a valuable clue, to think there wasn’t much use after all, Kiara started to regret spending so much money on this thing; she truly was a spendthrift!

After eating the dinner that Mario Yuno and the others had brought back, Kiara lay in bed with cucumber slices plastered on her face, resting with her eyes closed. Now that she was pregnant, she couldn’t use facial masks, but as a woman, she couldn’t sleep well without putting something on her face.

Mario Yuno took the chance while she was resting to slip into the study room. He always felt that his daughter-in-law had sent him out because she was up to something. As he entered the study room and glanced around, he quickly noticed that someone had tampered with the box on the bookshelf.

Inside the box were some documents that were not usually disturbed. Mario Yuno casually took down the box and opened it, his eyes immediately falling upon the photograph.

Mario Yuno examined the photographs over and over, sensing that something wasn’t quite right.

Suddenly, he looked at the woman in the photograph, and then at the wooden carving sitting on the computer desk; he finally understood why Kiara had sent him out.

Instantly, an image emerged in his mind, and some memories he had intentionally sealed away began to resurface.

As Baron lay dying, he had entrusted this photograph to him, saying something in their native tongue that Mario Yuno thought was the girl’s name.

He closed his eyes and took some time to calm his emotions before he walked into the bedroom.

In the bedroom, Kiara was playing classical piano music. The music enveloped the room, and as she lay on the bed with her eyes closed, even the cucumber slices on her face couldn’t diminish her beauty in Mario Yuno’s eyes. She was the most beautiful woman in the world to him.

“This prenatal music isn’t good enough; the sound quality isn’t great. Tomorrow, have them send me some high-quality original sound CDs, and the sound system needs to be changed,” Kiara said, not even opening her eyes as she heard him enter.

Now that there was a child in her belly, she had to give the best to the baby.

“She’s just a little embryo now, can she even hear the music when you listen?” Mario Yuno touched her belly, which had become a habit.

“She can’t hear it, but I can, and when I’m in a good mood, her development will be better too.”

“Just listening to music makes you happy? You think about so much every day and worry about my feelings. You keep everything to yourself without discussing it with me. Do you think you can be happy like that?”

At his words, Kiara opened her eyes and abruptly sat up, causing the cucumber slices to fall off her face.

Mario Yuno was quick to catch them, then gestured with his hand to show her the photograph he had taken out.

“How long were you planning to keep this from me?”

“You already know…” Kiara had indeed been contemplating the connection, but she hadn’t expected him to discover it so quickly.

“If I couldn’t even notice the changes in your emotions, I wouldn’t deserve to be this child’s father,” Mario Yuno said, touching Kiara’s belly, a mixture of guilt and tenderness in his heart.

Her Edward Wheeler ‘Bright Clarity’ must have been afraid to bring up unpleasant memories, which is why she chose to discover answers on her own without telling him.

The more she understood, the more considerate she became, the more he fell in love with this woman.

“I didn’t mean to keep it from you, I just–” Kiara didn’t know how to explain herself; the things she tried so hard to hide never lasted even half a day around a man with animal-like intuition and overly developed sixth sense. That’s the inconvenience of living with him.

“I know, you were afraid that I would recall something unpleasant, weren’t you?” Mario Yuno asked gently, and Kiara nodded slightly embarrassed.

“I’ve made you worry.” He wrapped his arms around her, intent on kissing her gently on the face, but Kiara pushed him away.

“Don’t–careful, or you’ll get cucumber juice all over your mouth. Wait until I’ve washed my face.”

Mario Yuno held her still, saying affectionately, “There might be cucumber on my face, but surely not here, right?”

In such moments, anything said would be superfluous. Her unvoiced concern and tenderness, his unspoken emotion and passion–all were fully understood in the silence between them.

She didn’t dare joke about a child, and she knew that this guy was brimming with Fire, so she shouldn’t provoke him. Thus, she deliberately took her time washing her face, spending almost five minutes before coming out. Sitting on the bed, she grabbed a pillow to hug, but all she got was his contemptuous look that saw right through her.

What did this girl think of herself? Did she really think a mere pillow could keep him at bay?

If it weren’t for considering how hard she’d worked caring for their child, he would have knocked down both her and the pillow by now!

Mario Yuno reined in his thoughts, which were running off in an indescribable direction, and said to Kiara while holding a photograph.

“This is something Baron gave me before he died.”

“Yes, I know. The patterns on the girl in the photograph are the same as the ones on the woodcarving I bought today. I saw the same Box at Grace Little Phoenix Bradford ‘Grace Bradford’s’ place. She was very protective of that Box; I could feel she was afraid of me touching it. But this only shows that Baron’s loved one and Grace Bradford had both been to the same place; it doesn’t explain anything else. I might have really wasted my Money.”

Kiara said with a hint of regret.

“No, this discovery is very valuable. Kiara, you truly are a lucky star in my life.”

“Oh?”

“Uncle only mentioned that this place has Totem worship, but did he say that it also produces another kind of substance? A kind that can ruin Homes and destroy lives, trap others and oneself? According to my investigation, the reason Baron ended up on that path of no return was to save his brother, who was trapped by this stuff!”

Mario Yuno seemed to understand something significant; it was a major discovery.

“You mean–drugs?! Ah, I remember now, Grace Bradford deliberately misled me into saying this stuff was from the Domestic Region. She intentionally hid the fact that she had gone Overseas. She has a guilty conscience!” Kiara realized immediately.

Mario Yuno nodded, “Exactly, that’s it. Kiara, you’ve done well.”

If Grace Bradford had traveled like the owner of the store where Kiara bought the woodcarving and brought back a few handicrafts, why would she need to sneaky and claim that these items were domestic crafts?

And if Grace Bradford was only using drugs herself, why would she go all the way to the source? That doesn’t make sense, and sounds extremely unusual.

“I met Grace Bradford today, and when I got home, Beautiful Lady also barked at me, and she even barked at Arlong… She must have had a strong smell of it on her, otherwise Beautiful Lady wouldn’t have had such a huge reaction!”

Kiara was extremely alarmed upon deep reflection–she thought she was dealing with a wealthy man involved in unspeakable activities, but had not anticipated that this wealthy man might not only be involved but also possibly… selling them!
