When the Flame of Love Fades (Sierra) novel Chapter 113

Chapter 113 A Gathering of Ghouls

“Such people deserve a lesson.” Jonathan’s words resonated deeply with Sierra.

Since her release from prison, the attitudes of the Xander family had shifted slightly, they might have felt a hint of guilt, but it was so minimal that at the first sign of trouble, they were quick to think about abandoning her and pushing her to the forefront.

With the plan set, Sierra wasn’t in a hurry anymore.

She went to the institute first to copy her research records from the recent period. These documents were undeniable, clearly showing the dates and content of her research. Then, she organized her own drafts and some other related materials.

The weekend came quickly, and with it, the time Sierra had agreed to meet with Kason. This time, Kason took Sierra to a party, which was essentially a gathering of wealthy heirs.

Sierra had become quite well–known in Maviston recently, and there was hardly anyone who didn’t know her name. As she entered with Kason, someone couldn’t help but whisper,

Can her frame withstand Mr. Kason’s anties?”

“Well, she is a daughter of the Xander family; Mr. Kason probably won’t go too far!”

“You don’t know; Mr. Kason likes the thrill. I heard he had another incident last week, had to call a doctor in the middle of the night. No idea what happened after that.”

As Kason and Sierra approached, the group fell silent. These were Kason’s fair–weather friends, and Kason’s intention in bringing Sierra was to introduce her to them.

Without a doubt, he and Sierra were headed towards engagement and marriage. From their interactions, it was clear Sierra suited his tastes perfectly.

He even thought that in the future, he might not need to drug Sierra; she could be willing to explore various scenarios with him, and perhaps, she might even bring some new ideas to the table.

With this thought, Kason flashed a pleased smile.

In stark contrast to his good mood, Sierra felt unusually down.

She had hoped for some progress today, but instead, Kason had actually started making his moves on her.

How long will it take forme to find evidence of Kason’s crimes? Am I really going to have to marry him? She didn’t have the patience for that, especially thinking about Dickson at home, who dared not even leave the house, which only added to her agitation.

At that moment, Kason led her over to gr

greet someone.

“This is Mr. Yeager, a good friend of mine, and this is Sierra, the daughter of the Xander family.”

Kason introduced Sierra to Brendan.

Upon hearing Brendan’s name, Sierra looked up involuntarily and saw a somewhat tall, rugged–looking man waving at her,

With resentment in her heart but a dangerously sweet smile on her face, Sierra responded, “Mr. Brendan, what a pleasure.”

“Mr. Brendan owns the Dynasty Club. I’ll take you there sometime for fun, though it’s not really my scene,” Kason whispered

Sierra glanced at the person next to Brendan, getting a sense of what Kason meant.

explained why they got along so well. The young man beside Brendan looked frail, his eyes filled with fear and pain, clearly there against his will.

Sierra asked, “And who is this? Mr. Brendan, aren’t you going to introduce him?”
