Chapter 788: 784: Won't Let the Li Family Off Easy
As soon as they entered, they smelled the scent of sandalwood drifting from the inner room.
Following the scent, they entered the living room, which was arranged like a Buddha Hall.
In the main seat, there was a life-sized bronze Buddha statue.
A table for offerings was placed in front of the Buddha statue, with offerings and incense burners on it.
In front of the table, there were three futons, and on the middle one, a person was sitting cross-legged with their back to them.
It was evident that the person was Jayden Dunn.
Although the group entered without making a lot of noise, they didn’t intentionally walk lightly.
As a result, Jayden didn’t seem to hear the sound of seven or eight people entering.
At this moment, he was sitting on his futon, chanting something, but they couldn’t make out what he was saying.
When Richelle first heard about Jayden’s supposed devotion to spiritual cultivation, her initial reaction was that it was false and just a deception.
But now, seeing it with her own eyes, she was greatly astonished.
For a moment, she even felt an illusion.
She thought that she shouldn’t have barged in, disturbing Jayden’s peaceful world.
“Mr. Dunn!”
It was Mr. Jarvis who spoke first, but Jayden had no reaction to his call.
Mr. Jarvis raised his voice a little, “Mr. Dunn!”
Jayden’s chant came to an abrupt halt, and he slowly turned his head, speaking in a deep voice.
“Who are you?”
In the end, his gaze fell on Richelle’s face, and his expression suddenly became cold.
“What are you here for?”
Clearly, he did not have amnesia.
Richelle nodded at him, her tone just as cold.
“Uncle, I came to see you.”
Jayden snorted coldly, “You don’t need to pretend to care, you’ve seen me now, you can go.”
His mental state was not different from before.
He still harbored hatred towards Richelle.
So much so, that he wished he could kill her with his gaze.
Mr. Jarvis glanced at Richelle, and she nodded at him.
“Since Uncle doesn’t welcome us, we’ll be leaving.”
Her visit today was just to confirm some things, and she also felt that she could no longer let Jayden’s family live comfortably.
In the future, she would visit from time to time, adding some psychological burden on them and reminding them that a huge scythe hung over their heads!
Mr. Jarvis’s task was to join Richelle and intimidate others.
Now that Richelle said she was leaving, he had no objections.
“We won’t see you out!”
After saying this coldly, Jayden turned around again, sat back down, and soon began chanting once more.
Richelle and the others carefully observed the surroundings, finding that besides the Buddha statue, offering table, futons, and Jayden, there seemed to be nothing else.
They exited the courtyard and briefly glanced at the similarly-sized courtyard not far away, as Mr. Jarvis asked.
“Do you want to take a look?”
Of course, since Richelle had come, she would take a look.
Unlike Jayden’s empty residence, Kiara’s place had servants bustling around, and both the courtyard and the interior were beautifully arranged.
However, the warmth was only an initial impression, and as they entered, they could feel a chilling sense of dread, similar to hell.
After Richelle entered, a servant actually recognized her.
“Ms. Richelle…”
Richelle nodded at her, “Where is my sister?”
The servant pointed to a room next to the living room, “Miss is sleeping.”
Richelle found it hard to believe, “Can you take me to see her?”
The servant nodded and led her to push open the door to the room.
Richelle followed her in to see a person sleeping on the bed, and upon closer inspection, it was Kiara Dunn.
Compared to the last time Richelle saw her, Kiara had gained some weight, and her complexion was not bad.
She slept heavily, with no reaction to Richelle’s calling her name twice.
Richelle withdrew from the room and questioned the servant.
“Does she always sleep so deeply?”
The servant nodded, “Miss is like this after taking her medicine, sleeping more than ten hours a day.”
Richelle also nodded, not questioning further.
Leaving Kiara’s room, Mr. Jarvis asked Richelle if there was anywhere else she wanted to go.
Richelle shook her head.
The decision to come here was impulsive.
Deep down, she knew that time had passed, and after so many years, she wouldn’t find any useful evidence in this house.
But she still insisted on coming, and in the future, she would follow her impulses and come whenever she wished.
Her parents had died in exile for so many years, and it was because of this family’s treacherous schemes that she had nearly lost her life in the wilderness.
Now that she had escaped death, even if she couldn’t immediately bring them to justice, she would not let them live comfortably anymore.
Richelle said she was leaving, and Mr. Jarvis accompanied her back to the main villa’s inner room.
Anxious Harris Dunn greeted them when they returned to the living room.
“Little sister, why not have dinner here?”
These words sounded warm.
But hearing them, Richelle interpreted it completely differently.
“No, we won’t disturb you, we’ll have dinner some other time.”
Richelle was determined not to let Harris have an easy time.
After Harris saw them out, she brought up the topic seemingly casually.
“Brother, I heard you want to split the business company?”
Harris hadn’t expected her to suddenly ask about this, and after a moment of stupefaction, he nodded.
“I have plans for that, do you not agree, little sister?”
Richelle gave him a meaningful smile.
“No, it’s pretty good!”
