Dennis chuckled. “Scott, don’t be silly. Even if | can’t do anything, surely Ms. Elysia Rosewood can.”

He added with a bit of humor, “Even though she’s not officially a Rosewood anymore, you two were like father-

daughter for a while. Out of respect for that, she won't just leave you in the lurch.”

Scott was shocked. He thought, ‘How could Elysia possibly have a way to help? Is he talking about the Evans

family backing Elysia? But he shouldn't know about that.

Before he could figure it out, Dennis went on. “With Elysia’s connection to the master of Arcanum House, dealing

with this is a piece of cake.”

Scott was taken aback and quickly asked, “Mr. Ludwig, what do you mean? What's the relationship between

Elysia and the master of Arcanum House?”

Dennis raised an eyebrow. “You don’t know?”

“I have no idea. | hope you can fillin.”

Dennis scoffed, “Scott, you're being modest. Even if you don’t know these things, surely the fact that the Hayes

family cto your house to apologize should have given you a clue, right?”

Scott frowned, remembering the tthe Hayes family cto apologize. It was still clear in his mind,

especially since Sean cin person; it was hard to forget.

At the time, Scott thought they did it out of respect for the Rosewood family. But Sean’s words when he was

seeing him out had kept bothering him.

Sean had asked, “Don’t you think that what happened today was out of respect for the Rosewood family?”

Now Scott seemed to get what those words meant. The apology wasn’t because of the Rosewood family but

because of Elysia.

Later, he heard srumors that the head of Arcanum House went to the Hayes residence to back Elysia. He

thought it was a joke at the tand didn’t think much of it.

After all, how could a girl from the countryside know someone as important as the head of Arcanum House?

Now, it seemed he really had underestimated Elysia. Someone who could win over the Hayes, Evans, and Shaw

families at the stcouldn’t be ordinary.

Who knew how deep her connection with the head of Arcanum House was? Now he just regretted being so stupid

before and not understanding the relationships.

If Scott had known everything earlier, he should have made full use of her before she left the Rosewood family to

get more benefits for them.

But now it was too late. She had the Evans family supporting her, so going against her was hard.

“Scott, have you thought it through?” Dennis's voice cthrough the receiver, bringing Scott back to reality.

Scott quickly replied, “I was being dumb, thanks for the tip, Mr. Ludwig.”

“No need to thank me, Scott. Now that you've got it, | guess you don’t need my help anymore,” Dennis said,

about to hang

up.

Scott quickly said, “Mr. Ludwig, Elysia won't help me. And besides you, | don’t know who else to turn to.”

Hearing this, Dennis stopped his hand from hanging up. “Scott, why are you still so clueless? You was her father,

right?”

“Mr. Ludwig, to be honest, Elysia and | have completely fallen out. She'd probably be happy to seein this

mess today, so how could she possibly help?

“Given your power and status in Sivro, | don’t need to explain. If you don’t help, | really don’t know who else to

ask.”

Scott's words seemed to make Dennis quite pleased, and he immediately agreed, “Alright, I'll do you this favor.”

“Mr. Ludwig, | really appreciate it!”

“Save your thanks. I'm not a charity. If | help you, what's in it for me?”

Scott's heart skipped a beat. He knew it wasn’t going to be that easy. “Mr. Ludwig, if you want money, | really

can't afford it.”

“Don’t worry, | won't make things difficult for you. And as for money, | don’t need it.”

“So, what do you want?”

“I heard you have another daughter-beautiful and gorgeous. How about giving her toas a thank-you gift?

What do you think?”

Scott was shocked by this request. Dennis's reputation as a womanizer was well-known in their circles. Scott

stammered, “Mr. Ludwig, this...”

“What? Scott, are you not willing? If that’s the case, this favor might be hard to do.”

Hearing that, Scott steeled his heart. After all, Emma was just an illegitimate daughter. He had taken care of her

for so long, and now it was tfor her to pay him back.

“Deal. But, Mr. Ludwig, the amount | need is quite large.”

Dennis laughed heartily, “Don’t worry, Scott, I'm not short of money. As long as you're willing to give her to me,

just tellhow much you want.”

“I trust your character, so thanks in advance,” Scott said before hanging up the phone.

A cold look appeared in his eyes as he thought, ‘Emma, don’t blme for being heartless. Be glad you're still

useful to me.”

After fixing his clothes and combing his hair neatly, Scott left the office. He hired a group of bodyguards in black

suits and rushed to Shecrity. At the moment, Emma was his only bargaining chip.

Outside the Arcanum House, Fabian looked at the brick-red wooden door, his eyes soft. After a while, he took out

his phone and called Elysia.

Elysia answered the call, “Hello.”

“Elysia, this is Fabian.”

Hearing the familiar voice and name, Elysia frowned slightly, “What do you need?”

“You reported the Rosewood Group to the tax authorities, didn’t you?”

When Fabian knew this thing, he hesitated for a moment but could guess the main thing. Besides Elysia, he

couldn’t think of anyone else who would have such skills.

“Yes, it was me. Both of you made your moves, so | took on the task of closing the net. But without your setup, it

wouldn't

have been so easy to bring Scott down.”

A gentle smile appeared on Fabian’s face. This his first collaboration with Elysia. And it had gone smoothly too.

But Elysia mentioned “Both of you.” There was a third person involved. Fabian had someone in mind, but he

didn’t want to admit it. He wanted to hear it directly from Elysia. “Elysia, who are you referring to?”

“Of course, I'm talking about Zane.”

Fabian felt a twinge of annoyance. Hearing Elysia call him “Zane” made him feel strangely uncomfortable.
