Chapter 759 I Must Get Joanna!
The phone on the coffee table rang. Skylar glanced at the screen-it was a call from the butler.

He quickly gestured to Karina to stay quiet, picked up the phone, and put it on speaker, "How's everything coming along?"
"Sir. Mr. Kieran will arrive in half an hour, and he's bringing the Brighton University student, Rheal Chandler, with him."
Skylar let out a hearty laugh. "Excellent! You've done an outstanding job!"
After ending the call, he stood from the couch and signaled to the household staff. "Prepare the banquet! Bring out our finest wine. Tonight, I'm hosting Kieran and Rhea in style." He turned to Karina hd Duncan. "This is a pivotal moment for us. I need both of you at your best tonight. Our family's honor and my revenge depend on this."
Karina nodded with determination. "Don't worry, Dad, I'll make sure Kieran and Rhea are properly entertained-and ensure Kieran enjoys a few extra drinks."
Skylar smirked, then paused thoughtfully. "I heard Rhea owes five million to Luminous Studio. I'll cover that debt tonight,"
Half an hour later, Kieran arrived at the Fioris' residence with Rhea..
Rhea, stepping into such a grand estate for the first time, was dazzled. Her eyes sparkled as she admired the luxurious surroundings.noveldrama
Inside, she made a silent vow, I have to secure my place beside Kieran. I will be part of a wealthy family, no matter what it takes. Why should only others get to enjoy these luxuries?
I'm beautiful, I'm clever. Why should I settle for less?
If I must steal this kind of life, so be it. It will be mine.
Kieran took a couple of steps ahead, then noticed Rhea standing still, staring at the scene. He chuckled, "Shocked? This is nothing. One day, I'll take you to the Southmere Residence. That's what real luxury looks like."
Rhea quickly ran up to him, hooking her arm around his, her tone soft and coquettish. "Kieran, this is already so incredible. In the future... I want to follow you forever."
Kieran grinned, pulling her closer and pinching her waist. "Behave yourself and listen to me, and I will make sure you live a life of leisure."
Meanwhile, Skylar, Karina, Duncan, and the entire household staff came out to greet them at the villa's
Ventrance.
"Kieran!" Skylar greeted warmly. "I wanted to personally drive over to pick you up, but I-didn't want to inconvenience you, so I waited here instead." Kieran laughed, "Mr. Fiori, you're too polite. We're practically family already"

He gestured to a servant carrying a package. "Mr. Fiori, I brought a small gift for you-a jade bottle from
Navi
Skylar immediately had the butler take it. "Kieran, you shouldn't have! This is your home now-there's no need for gifts."
Kieran waved dismissively. "It's just a jade bottle, Mr. Fiori, nothing extravagant.
"Let me introduce you. This is Rhea Chandler from Brighton University."
Turning to Rhea, Skylar said, "Welcome, Ms. Chandler Please, come in."
Karina warmly linked arms with Rhea. "Hello, Rhea. I'm Karina. I'm so glad you could join us."
Rhea was caught off guard by the warmth of her reception.
Being welcomed so kindly by such a prestigious family, one closely connected to the Southmere Residence, left her momentarily stunned.
The Fioris were among the most influential families in Brighton, and their strong ties to the Southmere made their attention even more intimidating.
As they all took their seats, Skylar gestured for the butler to bring out a bank card.
"Ms. Chandler, I saw what happened at the campus concert. It's already trending everywhere online. I know you've been treated unfairly. While I can't change what happened, we can support you and Kieran.
"Luminous Studio is demanding compensation, correct? Consider this five million settled. Since you're with Kieran, you're part of us now, and I will handle this for you. If you ever need anything in the future. don't hesitate to ask-we'll always back you up." Rhea was shocked and quickly stood up, waving her hands. "Mr. Fiori, I couldn't possibly accept this!"
Despite her words, her grip on the bank card betrayed her hesitation.
Kieran chuckled, leaning back. "Rhea, take it. Mr. Fiori is helping you for my sake. No need to be shy.
"After all, five million is just the equivalent of a meal or two for Mr. Fiori."
Skylar nodded approvingly. "Kieran, Ms. Chandler, I also watched the video of the incident today. Allow me to share one thought: Kieran, I strongly suggest you avoid further entanglements with Robin.
"If there's a way to steer clear of him, take it. His connections run deep, especially in the martial society, and it's better not to provoke him.
You may have been wronged today, but I suggest we let the matter rest. I invited you here for a few drinks to help you calm down, and we won't mention it again going forward."
Kieran slammed his palm on the table, scowling. "What are you trying to say, Mr. Fiori? Are you suggesting that we should be afraid of a nobody like Robin? He slapped me today, and for that, I'll take his life!"
Skylar feigned nervousness, raising both hands. "Kieran, please calm down. I wasn't suggesting fear, just prudence.
