Chapter 1606
This was something which the other three families did not have.
"Mr. Riddle Sr., how could you do that? Stanley hasn't graduated yet! Even if we had not provided you a grandson,
there's Preston from your second son and Emery from your third son! Why did you have to favor your fourth son?"
Miley's face turned red, and she could not resist from throwing a tantrum. Everett seemed to be used to seeing his
mother's shouts, as he only stood there and calmly watched.
On the other hand, Damien was getting annoyed. "Enough! Gloria was fertile. Not only did she give birth to five
sons, her daughter is also competitive. She's nothing like you!"
Miley was left utterly flabbergasted by the sudden reprimand, as Damien would usually pamper her. Deep down,
she could not help but wonder if he hated her now.
Chloe, who had been sitting at the corner in silence, went off on her father after witnessing Miley getting an earful.
"Dad! How could you use such mean words against Mom? If Nicole had not gotten the Fire Crest, how would Uncle
Daniel and his family get promoted so quickly? Didn't you go around looking for other crests? Is there even any
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtnews yet?"
Damien smashed his mug upon being questioned in such fashion by his daughter. With a loud pang, the mug
shattered into several pieces, frightening Chloe to the point that she backed away.
Damien suddenly stood up angrily. "What position are you in to comment about these things in the family? What
right do you have to question me?"
'Does she think that I'm not interested in looking for it? I've spent a fortune on investigators, and yet, there are no
leads at all. That thing is simply
impossible to find! God knows where Nicole got it from?' he fumed.
Chloe felt depressed after being yelled at. When she was doing well in the film industry previously, her parents
would support and pamper her wholeheartedly, but now, Damien had actually treated her in such a cruel manner.
Biting her lips, Chloe turned around sadly and left, and as she did, she knew that he had to regain her position in
order to not allow anyone to pick on her ever again.
As Chloe left, Miley's eyes began to well up, during which she turned back and stared at Damien. "What right do you
have to talk to Chloe like that? What right do you have to say that about me? If you think that Gloria is the best, why
don't you live with her?"
As soon as Miley had blurted those words, she quickly turned around and hurried upstairs for fear of being beaten.
In the midst of it all, Damien looked haggard, as if he had just competed in a wrestling match. Indeed, he had been
drained
Noticing how sad Damien was, Everett knew that it was his chance.
He slowly moved forward and said, "Dad, about the search for the Crest, why don't you leave it to me? Perhaps I
have some ideas on how to do it."
After all, Damien was old. There were many ways to get things done in the black market which Damien had no
knowledge about. Thus, it would be better for Everett to do it.
"You have ideas?" Damien’s eyes lit up instantly, feeling that his own son had been behaving really well these days.
"I can try other ways. Perhaps we might find something there." Everett nodded, though he dared not promise him
anything either.
"Oh well, the only person who can share my burden in this house is you. Go ahead. It doesn't matter if you can't
find anything, I'll accept the results whatever they may be." Damien patted Everett's shoulder affectionately.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFeeling that his own father had finally recognized him, a sense of fulfillment grew in Everett's heart.
'So, this is how it feels like to be recognized by my own parents. I'll make sure to find the rest of the crests, and if I
really can't find any, I'll steal it from Nicole!' Everett thought.
As soon as night had fallen, Nicole began to research on the Fire Crest's system and the ways in which to crack the
code. Once the problem had been solved, she would immediately sever her ties to the Fire Crest and pass it to
Zane.
However, the system was too complicated. During her last attempt at cracking it, it took up a lot of her time. It
seemed like cracking such a high- level security system would take her forever.
After an hour's worth of research, Nicole decided to get some information from The Hunters. Surprisingly however,
once Nicole logged into the page, she saw a comment from Zeke for her.
It seemed that Zeke had spotted a mission, which required Nicole's attention.
Much to her surprise, Nicole saw a mission online that pertained to searching for the other crests of the Reby
Family.
Additionally, there were no limited number of intakes. The more people who took up the job, the better. Whoever
found some lead would receive a cash prize.
Seeing this, Nicole could not help but frown.
