Her Story: Rise Of Tiffany Novel by Rex Ring
Chapter 436

At that time, while searching for Sidney, who had gone missing in a mudslide, Tiffany and Richard had no choice but to stay at a farmhouse on the stormy night. The owner even mistook them for a married couple and arranged for them to share the only room lef…

Alone in a room together, there might have been some caution and probing, but there was much more trust and protection. Nonetheless, no one expected that the situation would turn out like this.

Tiffany slowly closed her eyes, pulled the blanket, and turned over to sleep. As night fell, the air changed suddenly, and the temperature dropped rapidly. There was a gust of wind in the village. Before long, a drizzle began to fall.

A helicopter landed nearby. Kenneth alighted from it, accompanied by his trusted subordinate, Odin.

“Mr. Harper, it’s here,” Odin said as he pointed at the village nearby.

Under the cover of the night, nothing could be seen in the village, which was devoid of neon lights, except a mass of shadows.

Kenneth walked forward and said, “Let’s go.”

Got it,” Odin replied before quickly holding up an umbrella and following him.

It was already quite late, and it wasn’t until they knocked on the doors of two houses that someone finally responded.

The homeowner, who had been woken up from his sleep, was about to curse when Odin put a wad of cash into his hands. The owner rubbed his eyes and immediately welcomed them into the house.

They finally found a place to stay, but looking at the time, it was almost dawn.

Odin yawned. Unable to hold it in any longer, he asked carefully, “Mr. Harper, why did we come all the way here?”

Kenneth did not answer as he did not know what exactly he wanted to do.

He had only heard from Zoe that Tiffany had left for the Azure Sea Royal Family’s place. Driven by impulse, he immediately flew over without thinking, not even having the time to inform his family.

He thought, ‘If I really had to give a reason, I guess it’s because I’ve lost my mind…

Rubbing the space between his eyebrows, Kenneth reminded, “Don’t let Tiffany know that I’m here. Understand?”

“Got it.”

Odin nodded. However, he could not help but feel surprised, not expecting Kenneth was actually here for Tiffany. He thought, ‘Haven’t they already had nothing to do with each other? What’s the point of making such a long trip here?‘

He muttered inwardly, but he did not dare to say it out loud. He turned around and left the shabby room to sleep outside with a few other subordinates.

Meanwhile, several thieves had quietly entered the Harper family’s manor.

Lorenzo and the others had been holding back for a long time. Finally, the best time to make a move in the dead of night had arrived. They quietly rushed to Romeo’s courtyard right away.

According to the information Melody had gathered, the Treasure Box was located in Romeo’s bedroom. With this target in mind, Lorenzo led a few subordinates straight to Romeo’s bedroom.

There were also several cars and subordinates waiting outside to provide support..

Once they were discovered, everyone else would be mobilized.

Felix was still sitting in the back seat of one of the cars. He had been resting with his eyes closed for a long time, his face showing no sign of restlessness. He still looked unusually calm a ever.

In his view, obtaining the Treasure Box was already guaranteed.

In the manor, Romeo had long fallen asleep.

After all, he was getting on in years, and it was a habit he had developed over the years. Every night before going to bed, he would turn on the diffuser with sleep–inducing scent.

Today was no exception.

Lorenzo led a few subordinates to avoid areas with surveillance cameras and jammed all signals in the manor. Their progress was surprisingly smooth, and they climbed over the wall of the courtyard where Romeo lived and made their way toward his bedroom.

The bedroom door was gently pushed open, and it was dark inside.

Lorenzo walked in, treading softly. He noticed that Romeo was deeply asleep. For the sake of caution, he went behind Romeo and put something into the sleep–inducing oil.

This was a double dose of sedative that could make Romeo sleep even more soundly. Even if there was noise, he would not wake up for the time being.

“Hurry up and look for it. Keep it down.”

According to the information obtained by Melody, the Treasure Box was hidden in the wardrobe of Romeo’s bedroom. Lorenzo was extremely excited and personally searched for it.

However, after searching for a while, where almost everything inside had been searched, no secret compartments were found, let alone the Treasure Box.

“Damn it, could that woman have lied?” one of the subordinates said, his face full of anger.

Lorenzo thought for a moment and shook his head. “She couldn’t have lied. Keep searching. Maybe that old man has put it somewhere else.”

As the saying goes, better safe than sorry. For such an important item, Lorenzo believed there was no way Romeo would keep it in the same spot all the time, thinking It was bound to be hidden deeper and deeper.

But after searching the entire bedroom for over ten minutes, nothing was found.

“Lorenzo, what should we do?”

The other subordinates exchanged glances, thinking to themselves, ‘If we can’t replace the Treasure Box and go back empty- handed, Mr. Quaid will get rid of us.’

Lorenzo frowned and eventually shifted his gaze to Romeo’s large bed. “Who said we’ve searched everywhere? We haven’t checked under the bed. Come on, brothers. Help me move this damn old man aside first”

They lifted Romeo and placed him on the sofa at the side. Under the effects of the sedative, Romeo would not be woken up no matter what noise was made.

They flipped the bed and searched under it but still found nothing.

“What do we do?”

Lorenzo gritted his teeth and eventually waved. “Retreat.”

They then left the place by going the same route they came in.

Upon hearing this news, Félix suddenly opened his eyes. His blue eyes were filled with malice. “It wasn’t found?”

“Yeah.”

Lorenzo knew that failing the mission would bring bad consequences, but he dared not lie. “Mr. Quaid, we searched the entire room, but… there’s nothing.”

“Trash!”

Felix’s face darkened.

He was determined to obtain the Treasure Box. He thought, ‘I’ve finally managed to deal a huge blow to Richard, and I’ve finally pinpointed the location of the Treasure Box. This is just the mere Harper family’s home. Even if I have to dig through the earth, I have to replace it.

“Mr. Quaid, what should we do next?”

“Keep looking,” Felix ordered coldly. “It’s not found in Mr. Harper’s bedroom. Search the entire Harper family’s home then. If you people still can’t replace it, then there’s no point for you all to exist.”

“Got it.”

Lorenzo had a sudden feeling of fear. Not daring to refute, he immediately led his men out.

There was no way to search the entire manor in one night. Lorenzo pondered for a moment and had an idea.

He thought, ‘I led a team disguised as Alexia’s bodyguards the other day and infiltrated the tightly secured hotel.

‘Couldn’t I do the same thing this time?

‘That way, we can roam around the Harper family’s manor openly. Not only can we search at night, but we can search during the day as well. As long as the Treasure Box doesn’t move by itself, we will eventually replace it.’

Speaking of which, this excuse was really lame, but Alexia surprisingly believed it without any doubt.

When she woke up the next day and saw them, she said in her usual sarcastic tone, “Where the hell did you guys vanish to the other day? How come you all disappeared right after leaving the hotel?”
