Chapter 545 Silenced

"Etta..." Elijah murmured the name, his voice barely audible. He had almost developed a sense of fondness for her simply because their names were similar.

However, as he watched her descend the mountain, his eyes never left her, and that was when he saw through her facade.

Harriette's envy of Rose was palpable. She played her role so convincingly in front of her so-called brother, masking her deep, calculating intentions with remarkable ease. Elijah did not doubt that this woman harbored ill will toward Rose. The car accident and assassination attempt just moments ago further fueled his growing concern for Rose's safety.

Furrowing his brow, his thoughts were interrupted by the ringing of his phone. Glancing at the caller ID, he answered the call absentmindedly.

"Uncle Elijah, I went looking for you but heard you went to Aurora Crest. What brings you there, especially since you've just arrived in Regalia?" Clover's voice filtered through the line, brimming with curiosity.

For a brief moment, he considered the possibility that the Young family was also headed to Aurora Crest that day, but he didn't dwell on it.

"Uncle Elijah, you should return soon-no, I'll come get you. We need to go over the details for tomorrow's recognition ceremony."

It was clear that Clover took this matter very seriously. Elijah's interest was piqued.

"I must admit, I'm actually curious to see what kind of woman has made you value her so much, Clover. Have you thought this through? If you're only acknowledging a sister, it won't necessarily bind her to the Xanth family. "But if I were to step in and represent the family, the inheritance of our family's assets might no longer rest solely with you."

"So what? As long as she wants it, she can have the entire Xanth family," Clover replied without hesitation.

Elijah was taken aback by the response. "The entire Xanth family, huh?" he mused.

Surely, Clover had to understand the weight of his words. Knowing Clover, these weren't simply empty promises. If that "sister" truly desired it, he would, without a doubt, give it all to her.

"I'm looking forward to meeting this woman tomorrow then," Elijah said with increasing interest.
