On the other hand, since Yulia was skilled in medicine, she could help change his bandages in time. Naturally, the Hawkins Family also received the invitation.<\/p>\n<p>When the Hawkins family\u2019s butler came in with the invitation, Yulia had just finished taking out Garrick\u2019s stitches. \u201cGarrick. you\u2019re all set. It\u2019s fully healed now, and no more bandages needed\u201d Yulia said.<\/p>\n<p>Garrick seemed to have recovered quite well, but unlike his previous robust self, he could now only move around in a wheelchair or use a cane. He was, after all, not fully able anymore.<\/p>\n<p>Hearing Yulia\u2019s words, Garrick sighed deeply, saying, \u201cWell, that\u2019s how it is. Considering the situation that day, I\u2019m just happy to have survived, but still, there\u2019s a little bit of reluctance for me<\/p>\n<p>As he spoke, he glanced at Rita, who was sipping her tea beside him, while Rita didn\u2019t say anything, just still taking a quiet sip<\/p>\n<p>of tea.<\/p>\n<p>Soon, their butler came rushing over. \u201cGarrick, Rita, Gina, and Yulia, you\u2019re all here, that\u2019s great,\u201d He said after knocking on the door.<\/p>\n<p>Gina glanced at the butler standing at the door and asked, \u201cWhat\u2019s going on?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The butler took out two invitations. \u201cThese were delivered by someone from the Muller family for you all. They just handed them to me and left, he explained.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat person left quickly, so I didn\u2019t ask anything.\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>When they heard the invitation was from the Muller family, all four of them were a bit surprised.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRita, what\u2019s this about? Aren\u2019t you both here? Why is the invitation needed? Didn\u2019t you know about this?\u201d Gina immediately asked.<\/p>\n<p>Rita and Yulia both looked visibly unaware.<\/p>\n<p>Garrick scolded disapprovingly at Gina\u2019s question. \u201cStop talking Hand me those invitations quickly so I can take a look,\u201d he said when seeing Rita remained silent.<\/p>\n<p>Upon hearing this, the butler stepped forward and handed both invitations to Garrick. \u201cSir, they\u2019re both here,\u201d he said. Garrick quickly opened the invitation, skimming through it, and then looked over at Rita, who was still quietly seated. \u201cRita, it says there\u2019s a party this weekend at the banquet hall in the Betrico, Clusia. The invitation is extended to all the Muller family\u2019s friends and families, both locally and internationally.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLook, it\u2019s at the banquet hall in Betrico, which isn\u2019t easy to get into without some connections. They\u2019re really pulling out all the stops,\u201d Carrick said to Rita, looking like cautious.<\/p>\n<p>Yulia picked up one of the invitations and began to read it. After finishing, she looked also puzzled, since she honestly hadn\u2019t heard about this event.<\/p>\n<p>Although Rita kept her composure, a flicker of disbelief passed through her eyes.<\/p>\n<p>Actually, she couldn\u2019t really believe it. From what she knew abot Rayburn, he wasn\u2019t the kind to host parties. He even came up with excuses to avoid attending events held by important figures.<\/p>\n<p>She seemed to think for a moment and then suckdenly said, \u201cLet me take a look.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>09:02 Thu, Dec 19<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 397<\/p>\n<p>-G\u00b7<\/p>\n<p>93%<\/p>\n<p>Upon hearing Rita speak, Yulia quickly handed over the invitation she was holding<\/p>\n<p>When Rita received it, she paused for a moment while looking at the embossed \u201cInvitation\u201d on the cover, and then she calmly opened it. Just as she opened it, her eyes widened noticeably.<\/p>\n<p>She immediately noticed that the font of the invitation was actually handwritten by Rayburn.<\/p>\n<p>Rita was very familiar with this handwriting. After all these years, she could never forget Rayburn\u2019s beautiful writing. Each stroke unmistakably belonged to him.<\/p>\n<p>She now finally believed it, and the disbelief in her eyes completely disappeared.<\/p>\n<p>She wondered. What on earth could be so important to make Rayburn host a party, especially at the Hotel Ballroom in Betrico, Clusia, a place reserved for emperors and noblemen in ancient times?<\/p>\n<p>\u2018He even invited friends and family from all over. Given the Muller family\u2019s reputation the number of invitees must be<\/p>\n<p>enomous<\/p>\n<p>She really wanted to go back to the foot of Azure Peak to ask for answers, but her pride kept her from doing so.<\/p>\n<p>A sense of unease was gradually spreading in her heart, but she couldn\u2019t quite figure out what it was. Yulia felt the same way.<\/p>\n<p>On the small island of Carson, which was in the middle of the lake, an old man, a youngster, a middle\u2013aged man, and a tiger sat under the pavilion.<\/p>\n<p>The table was covered with a colorful assortment of fruits and snacks. Cherise was slowly nibbling at the food, looking quite<\/p>\n<p>at case.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDid you get it all figured out using that method?\u201d Carson asked as he looked at the freshly dried herbs.<\/p>\n<p>Cherise nodded. \u201cThe first time, I added a bit of mechanical know\u2013how. It took about twelve hours in total, and it was exhausting, but I finally succeeded,\u201d she replied.<\/p>\n<p>After hearing this, Carson smiled warmly. \u201cYou\u2019ve got a knack for it. Finishing it in twelve hours is pretty impressive,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n<p>Cherise suddenly straightened up, asking, \u201cOh, right, Master, that time I felt a sharp pain in my head, it was because I lifted a curse for a girl, right? It shouldn\u2019t be too harmful to me, right?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Carson picked up a handful of herbs, sniffed then, and nodded. \u201cYes, it\u2019s related. I\u2019ve looked into this too. It\u2019s not harmful, which is just a signal that someone else realized the curse was broken.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s just an attempt to control backlash. Clusia is a big country with countless unique arts and techniques. You\u2019ll gradually learn more,\u201d Carson explained.<\/p>\n<p>Cherise listened thoughtfully and then popped a cherry tomato into her mouth, saying, \u201cSo, that person really does know I\u2019m the one who can break the curse, right? That\u2019s getting interesting\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u9c7c<\/p>\n<p>SEND GIFT<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-420","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/420","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=420"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
