Chapter 440 Revelation
“I–I cried because I thought of my grandpa’s illness. I didn’t cry because of this shameless guy!”
Upon hearing Blanche’s words, Emrys immediately felt a significant reduction in his guilt.
Continuing, Blanche said, “Sierra, the reason I came to Jazona today is because I wanted to ask you something. What exactly is the lucky chance that Friar Athos mentioned? Can you tell me?”
Sierra had heard Blanche mention the lucky chance mentioned by Athos more than once. However, she didn’t understand it before, and she didn’t know Athos at all. She wasn’t deliberately trying to keep Blanche in suspense.
However, things had changed, and Sierra finally had an answer. Rys is the answer.
Ever since Emrys told her he was Athos‘ mentee, she had understood. The lucky chance that Blanche had been constantly talking about was Emrys.
Beyond that, she couldn’t think of a better explanation.
Blanche pleaded, “Sierra, I admit that when I first approached you, it was for the benefit of the Langford family. However, after spending so much time together, I’ve come to consider you a true friend. My grandpa is gravely ill this time, on the brink of not being able to hold on any longer. I implore you, as a friend, to please tell me the answer. I am even willing to kneel before you.”

Tears welled up in Blanche’s eyes as she was about to kneel, but Sierra quickly supported her, saying, “Blanche, it wasn’t that I didn’t want to tell you before, but because I myself didn’t know the answer. But now that I know, I will certainly not hide anything from you anymore.”
Blanche’s expression dimmed when she heard the first half of Sierra’s sentence. Blanche even thought Sierra was about to keep her in suspense again. However, her eyes lit up once more when she heard the rest of Sierra’s words.
“Really? Sierra, are you truly willing to tell me?”
“Of course.” Sierra nodded with a smile, then feigned profundity as she said, “The lucky chance the Langford family seeks is seemingly far away but actually close at hand.”
“Close at hand?” Taken aback, Blanche quickly scanned her surroundings, her expression growing increasingly puzzled.
They were some distance away from the film crew. The crew members didn’t dare to casually approach and disturb them, so there was essentially no one moving around in the vicinity.
Besides, Blanche didn’t know what or who to look for.
Blanche was puzzled, and after a moment of contemplation, her gaze suddenly settled on Sierra’s beautiful face. She said, “Sierra, are you implying that the lucky chance mentioned by Friar Athos is actually you? Could it be that you’ve already thought of a way to cure my grandpa’s illness?”
“It isn’t me.” Sierra shook her head.

With urgency, Blanche questioned, “If not you, then who is it?”
“Um…”
A few lines of frustration immediately appeared on Sierra’s forehead. She wished she could drag Emrys over, forcefully push him toward Blanche, and tell her it was Emrys.
Obviously, she didn’t do that. Instead, she glanced to the side and said, “It’s him!”
Blanche turned her snow–white neck, her gaze falling on a silent figure. Her beautiful eyes paused, seemingly in disbelief as she said, “You mean to tell me that the lucky chance is this shameless godbrother of yours?”
Sierra flashed an enchanting smile and said, “Rys is Friar Athos‘ mentee. The lucky chance you mentioned must undoubtedly be him.”
“Is this really true?” Blanche still couldn’t believe it. How could someone as wise as Friar Athos have such a mischievous mentee?
