Chapter 1

Elysia Rosewood lay stretched out on an ancient tree, a piece of dogtail grass poking out of her mouth and a colorful floral shirt draping over her. She looked relaxed, but her eyes were laser–focused on a nest in the branches above.

“Elysia, are you really thinking about going back to the Rosewood family? I mean, what’s so special about them? Their family fortune is just a drop in the bucket,” said Damon Warren, a fatty guy who followed Elysia

After a pause, he added, worry etched on his face, “I heard there’s an adopted daughter there. What if you go back and they give you a hard time?”

Yisrael Donnell affectionately ruffled Elysia’s hair, his tone softening. “If you feel mistreated by the Rosewood family, don’t keep it to yourself. You’ve got Silverstream backing you up.”

Silverstream was a village nestled at the foot of the mountains. Twenty years ago, Jack Lewis, the leader of the mafia came to this place. Leo and Max, who followed him here, took on his surname, though they weren’t related by blood.

Back then, the mafia decided to move away from shady dealings and operate from the shadows instead. Under Jack’s leadership, they settled in this beautiful spot to focus on their work. Over the years, Silverstream had blossomed into leadership, they settled in thi various industries, offering a surprisingly wide range of services

Eighteen years ago, Jack discovered Elysia in the forest east of Silverstream–frozen and barely clinging to life. Fortunately, Jack was the famous “Magic Doctor” of Clusia, saving her from the brink of death. Since then, Jack and his two “brothers,” Leo and Max, adopted her and raised her like their own granddaughter.

“Don’t worry. Nobody can bully me.” Elysia flashed a mischievous smile, tossed the foxtail grass to the ground, and dashed toward her little cabin.

As soon as she walked in, Jack waved at her and said, “Elysia, you’re just in time. Come over and check what you still need.” Elysia nodded. But before she could take a step, Damon approached with a bag. “Take this with you, Elysia.

Elysia glanced down and saw a bunch of high–tech weapons–handguns, sniper rifles, explosives, and so on. She thought helplessly, Am I going to a family reunion?‘

“Just in case someone tries to mess with you,” Damon explained. If so, just shoot them,”

Elysia was at a loss for words. ‘Do they think the laws here are just a joke? This kind of stuff has to be handled with discretion, okay?‘
