Chapter 123 "Well, that's only because you lockedin the car! Otherwise, I could have-" Before Xanthea could finish her sentence, Orion interrupted her, "No worries, I don't mind, and Ms. Nightshade, you shouldn't either." He was not the least bit uncomfortable; on the contrary, he seemed quite at ease.

Xanthea paused, "I wasn't minding!" "Mr. Lockwood, Ms. Nightshade, we're here." Cedric stopped the car and swung open the door.

After being cooped up in the car for five or six hours, arguing relentlessly with him, Xanthea couldn't stand another second inside and was eager to get out. She stepped out and was greeted by the sight of the sprawling, majestic Estate.

Inside the estate, there were towering pavilions, vast, rippling lakes, chirping birds and rare wildlife, and even a dense, man-made forest that blocked out the sky-it was indeed a top-tier private villa.

On the grand golden gate at the front of the villa, the n'Marlowe' was prominently displayed.

Marlowe Manor? Xanthea murmured, "Could this be the famous Marlowe conglomerate that Dad often mentions? The wealthiest family in Everglade? No wonder they own such a luxurious estate.” Orion noticed the admiration in her eyes and said, "I have one in the northern areas of Crestwood too, ten times larger than this.

Hearing this Xanthea turned to look at him and thought, “And? Are you trying to show off?" "Chairman Lockwood!" "Long tno see! Please, cin. Mr. Anthony has been waiting for you in the study for quite stnow!" From the estate, a group of servants dressed in formal suits cout, all smiling warmly as they approached to take things from Cedric, Just as Xanthea was about to speak, Orion said, "Please, Ms. Nightshade." Xanthea thought, "I'm not staying here tonight, am 17" She had assumed his earlier mention of a destination inaccessible by public transport was just to tease her, but seeing how remote this place was, it seemed he was telling the truth.

"Orion!" As they entered the main hall of the villa, a particularly clear voice called out from the winding staircase. Looking up, Xanthea saw a tall man with a lively demeanor descending the stairs. He was dressed casually in a shirt and trousers, his hair a light, sandy color. He appeared about the sage as Orion but with an entirely different energy..

If she wasnt mistaken, this had to be Leonard Marlowe, the heir of the Marlowe family.

1/2 Chapter 123 "I've been waiting for you all day." His eyes, filled with laughter, suddenly froze when they landed on the girl next to Orion, overtaken by sheer astonishment.

"Xanthea?"

Startled by being unexpectedly named, Xanthea looked at him curiously. How did he know her? Could it be that she had becE famous overnight after her appearance on "The Masked Singer, famous enough that even this elite heir noticed her? "Orion, why did you bring her here? Don't tellyou guys...

His incredulous gaze shifted back and forth between Orion and m Xanthea, seeking confirmation. However, Orion merely pursed his lips, a reminder of his calm demeanor.

Realizing how his shocked gaze lingered between her and Orion, m Xanthea quickly caughton, "Oh, don't get the wrong idea. I'm not close to him. We just happened to meet on the road, and I hitched a ride." +
