Chapter 148: Chapter 146: The Blackened Man

"Who did this?!"

The party had descended into chaos, with what were once elegantly dressed men and women now covered in thick, foul-smelling black ink!

The worst victim was Shawn Lyle! His face was covered with filthy, stinking stuff.

―――Just a few minutes earlier, outside the villa wall.

Luna lay on top of the car, observing the situation with binoculars.

When she saw the woman next to Shawn Lyle, she thought the woman looked familiar. Upon frowning and thinking for a moment, she remembered it was Emily Lyle.

Emily, who had pitifully claimed yesterday she wouldn’t disturb the Lyle family, was now at their house today!

Thinking it over, she decided to get out her phone and dialed Elliana Lyle’s number.

"The number you have dialed is switched off, please try again later..."

Hearing the automated message in the receiver, Luna frowned, wondering why the phone was off at this time?

Could it be she hasn’t gotten up yet? But it’s already midday, could something have happened?

To be safe, she called the Bennett Family villa.

"Hello, this is Mr. Bennett’s residence."

Upon hearing the voice, she immediately recognized it was Lana’s, so she asked, "Lana, where’s your young mistress? Hasn’t she gotten up yet? Go and check on her upstairs."

"Hello, Miss Luna, our young mistress went out with the young master early this morning."

Hearing this news, Luna was somewhat relieved. After hanging up, she picked up her binoculars again, only to find Emily Lyle had already disappeared.

After waiting two or three minutes more, Emily still did not return.

And she didn’t have the leisure to wait any longer.
