Riches in Disguise

Chapter 286

If The Dragonshade Society were the only issue, it would be easy enough to handle.

I immediately reassured Lynn. "This isn't a big deal. Why don't you and Riley move somewhere else for now? I promise I'll deal with The Dragonshade Society and make sure they don't bother you again."

Lynn shook her head and rejected my suggestion. "We can't move. You've seen how Riley can't talk anymore. She wasn't born mute. It was because of Elijah's death. It scarred her deeply.

"After crying her heart out, she lost her voice. Now, she's too scared to go out. Moreover, she's really attached to this place. If I make her leave, it will break her."

I was right. Riley's muteness was because of her trauma.

However, I never expected it to be from Elijah's death. Once again, it seemed like the White family had ended up being the indirect culprit.

Before I could suggest something else, Lynn interjected. "Plus, moving won't change anything. The Dragonshade Society is way too powerful. Even though you're rich, you're not invincible.

"So, don't even think about helping me. You can't even handle Mr. Donovan, let alone take on The Dragonshade Society."

She sighed. "You can stay here a couple more days to avoid Mr. Donovan. After that, you should return to campus. There's no way you can fix this for Riley and me. Just give up and stay away from us."
