Chapter 980
Heather was disgusted with Ralph.She did not even want to touch him, nor was she planning to be a
real couple with him.She just wanted that book and used Ralph’s connection to the Russell family to
slowly swallow the family business from within and incorporate it into the Riggs family.
After that, she would just divorce him.
However, Heather had changed her mind.
If her marriage partner were that man instead, she would not have to go through so much trouble.She
could still obtain the book and the Russell family’s wealth simultaneously.
Unfortunately, he was already married.
Soon, she was back at her own villa.
The Riggs family’s villa was cold, unlike the noisy atmosphere of the Russell family’s place.She would
not have suggested moving into that house if it was not for the book.
Heather had been a talented fighter since she was young.
Unfortunately, the previous generation of Riggs was not gifted in this aspect, so her parents had lost
interest in the family’s fighting skills.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf it were not for her, the Riggs family would have already been kicked out of the list of ancient martial
arts families.
She had learned all the available martial art skills from the Riggs family, and Heather was also
confident in her own abilities.
However, after participating in a few fights against other families, she realized her skills were far
lacking.
Even though she was able to emerge victorious in a fight with people her age, she could not deal with
more seasoned fighters as quickly.
Following her participation in fights, the number of challengers coming to challenge the Riggs family
also increased significantly.
On the surface, the Riggs family might look like they were thriving, but she knew very well that they
were cornered.
Just because they had emerged victorious a few times, it did not mean that this would happen every
time.
It was by coincidence that she found out about an ancient martial art skill book that contained a secret
technique that once belonged to the Lodge family.
Anyone who owned this book would be able to be the best fighter.
For some reason, this book ended up in the hands of the Russell family, and no one had heard any
news about it.
As for the Russell family, not many people knew about this incident, and the Russell family was known
for their power and tight security.
So, it was not like others could quickly get their hands on that book.
Heather tried to send the Light- Shadow Killers to retrieve it, but to No avail, and before that, she had
also tried numerous times and failed at her attempts.
If not for her running out of ideas, she would not have chosen to propose a business marriage between
the two families.
This was the only way she could freely enter the family house to retrieve the book.
She entered the house and changed into her slippers.
As she took off her scarf, she felt a stabbing pain when she accidentally touched her ears.
Pain was not a foreign sensation to her, as she was trained as a fighter from a young age.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, this was unlike the pain from an injury or a fracture.
It was the feeling of being pricked by a needle at her most fragile part.
For some reason, this pain annoyed her as it gave her a tingling sensation that traveled down her
spine.
"Get me Hannah!’ She instructed as Heather sat down on the sofa and rubbed her sore temples.
The housekeeper immediately left and brought Hannah back with her.
Since yesterday, Hannah knew that she had gotten herself into trouble.
So, she chose to diminish her existence by hiding in her room as she was afraid of her sister.
Hannah did not even eat much during lunch and dinner, so she looked pale and weak.
Heather was instantly annoyed when she noticed her frail appearance.
She immediately questioned, "Why are you not eating again?"
Hannah continued to remain silent.
"You'll only continue to lose more weight if you don’t eat properly.By that time, everyone will be able to
tell us apart as you’re too skinny! Is this your way of going against me?"
Heather questioned sternly.
"No, sorry!"
Hannah immediately denied it and insisted, "I wouldn’t dare.I promise that I’ll eat well!"
