Kiara had a simple thought at the moment: everyone who leaves people hanging by saying something without following through, like saying the first part without the second, should find themselves without toilet paper when using the bathroom–even if it’s the kind with an automatic rinse, she’d gently wish for the water to break down completely! Let them learn to use their left hand scrape scrape scrape!

She was talking about Yuzo Joel!

He left just one sentence, “Seeing is believing,” and then hung up the phone, followed by complete silence. Mrs. Kiara felt like a silly pheasant fooled into sitting at home all morning by her cheap dad.

There was no word from him all morning and just as Kiara was about to call Yuzo Joel again in the afternoon, she received an urgent call from Edward Farmbright.

“Emma Clark, did you make Fox Cat sick?”

“Me? I did not.”

“If it wasn’t you, then who else could be so heartless?”

“What happened to him?”

“Don’t get me started. He came back the day before yesterday in a sorry state, like he fell into a stinky ditch and died there. His hair was a mess, he was sweating all over, and I’ve never seen him in such a mess before–right, I took a bunch of photos of him on the fly, hahaha, I’ll be entertained for the rest of my life with these.”

True to his name, Green Tea Senior Jackson couldn’t even pretend to be the upstanding Senior Brother for a minute before his true colors showed.

“Share a couple with me.” Mrs. Kiara naturally wanted to join in on the fun.

After a few moments of heartless glee, they suddenly remembered the serious business at hand.

“Right, you’re not just calling to share photos of Young Leopard Davis’s misery, are you?”

“Of course not. He collapsed with a high fever when he came back, and there’s a case we were supposed to work on together this afternoon that we can’t do. You need to come and take his place.”

“Is there money involved?”

“Hard to say, but bring one of your home’s international cards.”

“Oh, I just remembered, there’s braised pork stewing in the pot at home, I better go check on it–” Mrs. Kiara, sensing there might be no pay and she might even have to fork out money herself, made a swift escape.

“Get back here! Since when do you cook? I wasn’t aware of that. Stop making excuses and come over right away. Even if you don’t admit it, I suspect Fox Cat was laid out by you. We’re all in the same boat here; if he goes down, you have to step in! And remember to bring contact lenses!”

With that, Edward Farmbright hung up, and Kiara let out a long sigh.

“Ah, is this what they mean by ‘a husband’s debts are paid by his wife’?” It was clearly Camden who dug this hole for someone else!

Sure enough, there’s a price to pay for enjoying the spectacle!

With no escape, she left Wendy with Abigail Nana, changed into proper attire, and arrived at the agreed-upon place.

Edward Farmbright was already there and was taken aback by Kiara’s outfit.

“You’re wearing that?”

Kiara wore a short-sleeved bright-colored blouse with a pair of striped five-point harness denim shorts, her hair braided from the bangs in centipede braids trailing down with the rest draping loosely, her face bare of makeup save for a touch of pale lipstick out of politeness–thinking of lipstick, she couldn’t help but feel heartache, mourning for her favorite that Mario Yuno recklessly destroyed.

Her outfit was certainly beautiful, but she looked too young, almost like a high school student at first glance, and not at all like someone who had had a child.

“Any problem?”

“No problem… but why do I feel like I’ve suddenly acquired a grown daughter?” Edward Farmbright thought about where they were headed and figured Kiara’s attire would surely be quite interesting there.

“Who did this little braid for you?”

“I did it myself.” Her style was all based on the lipstick she wore. The mature look was ruined by Mario Yuno, so she opted for a lighter color to match the more relaxed style.

Edward Farmbright looked deeply at Kiara, who always felt that he wanted to say something but stopped short.

Edward Farmbright took Kiara in the car, and after driving for a bit, Kiara realized something was off.

This isn’t the way to the Laboratory, is it?

“Are you taking me out to the countryside to sell me to a human trafficker?”

“…With your kind of temper, even if I gave someone money, nobody would dare to buy you.” When he thought about Fox Cat still lying in bed, covered in a rash and with a high fever, Edward Farmbright silently mourned for him.

The place where Edward Farmbright brought Kiara to, looked from the outside like a Courtyard, appearing like an enlarged Courtyard House.

Edward Farmbright’s car stopped at the entrance, where someone was already waiting.

“Young Master Nong Thompson,” the person greeted with a smile, dressed in a suit and looking like some sort of secretary.

“Is everyone already here?” Edward always paid attention to his image outside.

The secretary got in the car, glanced at Kiara sitting in the co-pilot seat without taking her seriously, and addressed only Edward.

“Everyone is assembled, just waiting for the two of you — wasn’t it supposed to be Young Leopard Davis, how come…”

“This is our farmstead’s Junior Leader.”

“My apologies, my apologies, so this is the Junior Leader the boss spoke of.”

“This is our farm’s International Affairs Department liaison, just call him Murphy Sorn, he’s one of us,” Edward quickly introduced Kiara, and she nodded in greeting to the other party.

Kiara got out of the car first, scanned the parking lot with her eyes, and noticed that there were already a few cars parked. Just by the cars, Kiara was already feeling regret.

Such cars are rare in the Domestic Region; surely, there must be some important person inside.

At this thought, Kiara inwardly cursed Green Tea Brother Jackson several times for not giving her a heads up. If she had known there would be such a grand scene, she wouldn’t have worn striped overalls!

“Don’t you need to change clothes?” Kiara asked Edward in a low voice while Murphy Sorn was not paying attention.

Edward shrugged, “Do you think there’s enough time?”

Hmm…

While Kiara was feeling irritated, Edward Farmbright reached into the car and pulled out half of a Butterfly Mask and handed it to Kiara. He wasn’t wearing one himself.

“Masquerade?” Upon seeing the mask, Kiara was even more confused about what was going on.

“You can also choose not to wear it — if you don’t mind your life being disturbed,” he said.

If that’s the case, it’s obviously better to wear it. So Kiara put on the half Butterfly Mask and looked in the mirror. Masks were indeed wondrous things; even though it only covered the eyes, it made her seem like a different person — fortunately, she wore contacts today, or glasses would have spoiled the scene.

“How are the odds today?” Edward asked Murphy Sorn.

“Knowing Young Master Nong Thompson is here in person, people placed heavy bets; your odds are 1.2. There was a rumor that Young Leopard Davis would come too, the support for him was slightly less than for you, the other two are at 2.2 and 1.3. But with Young Leopard Davis absent… Will the Junior Leader take his place?”

“It depends on the situation, but I have no plans to let the Junior Leader enter the fray for now.”

Kiara sensed that these people were involved in some kind of betting game, but she couldn’t make out the specifics and it wasn’t convenient to ask, so she just followed along for now.

Murphy Sorn led the two to the middle door in the Courtyard, invited Kiara and Edward inside, and then stood guard at the door himself.

Kiara also noticed several burly men at the entrance, patrolling back and forth in the Courtyard, looking like bodyguards.

What kind of place was this?
