My Rise and My Ex's Fall (Chloe and Arthur) novel Chapter 638

Just one day earlier, a set of diamond bracelets had sold for tens of millions at an auction—and the display case used at the event featured the very same patterned design.

Seeing Vincent give away such an expensive gift so casually, Chloe couldn't help but shake her head quietly.

Oralia's awards ceremony was only three days away.

The gown Oralia had sent over fit perfectly—a delicate, silvery dress that seemed to shimmer with every movement, both elegant and graceful.

She had already agreed to let Vincent accompany her as her date. She'd told him the color scheme of her outfit; what he chose to wear was his own business.

Vincent usually stuck to white anyway. It wasn't like it would make much difference what he put on.

Three days.

She would be attending Oralia's event. Melinda and Zachary were both going too. The only person she hadn't mentioned it to was Eugene. Had he found out by now?

If Eugene knew, surely he'd keep his composure, right?

She had warned him she had things to handle and that he shouldn't get involved. And now, exactly what she needed to do was coming next.

Hopefully... he'd actually listen.

What Chloe didn't realize was that, at that very moment, Eugene had already obtained the files on Silverash.

After days of relentless—and costly—tracking, he finally had some answers.

Eugene stared at the documents spread out before him, his expression turning thoughtful.

Silverash.

He was well aware of this organization. In fact, whether you were in politics or business, once you reached a certain level, you inevitably heard the name.

Silverash.

A shadow in the darkness. A force that operated unseen. They didn't deal in right or wrong, good or evil. If the price was right, they could accomplish virtually anything.

One hundred percent satisfaction—that was their guarantee. In Silverash's world, the word "impossible" didn't exist.

When Eugene's eyes fell on the name Silverash, his gaze darkened. He'd crossed paths with them once before—just that one time.

Landon had run into serious trouble during an operation and nearly lost his life. Back then, Eugene paid a staggering sum to have the situation resolved. What surprised him was how little time it took the other party to extract Landon safely.

He still didn't know how deep that connection went. The only certainty was the name: Silverash.

"Mr. Rosewood, there really isn't much information available on Silverash. And if we dig any deeper and they notice, it could put Ms. Lewis in danger," Bruce said quietly.

Eugene looked over the papers covering the desk. They'd paid a high price for what little they had, and hadn't been able to uncover anything beyond this.

Chloe's link to Silverash. And who exactly was running the organization.

Eugene wanted—needed—to know who the Master behind Silverash was. If that person stood in his way, he wouldn't hesitate to take on all of Silverash.

But before making a move, he had to fill in the blanks.

What was Chloe keeping from him? He understood that her keeping him at a distance was her way of trying to protect him. But whatever was going on between her and Silverash, he was determined to get to the truth.

"The Master of Silverash is extremely secretive," Bruce went on, his voice low. "They've never appeared in public. No one even knows if it's a man or a woman, or how old they might be." He paused, then added almost under his breath, "In some ways, this person hides even better than you do."

To the public, Eugene was just another investor who kept a low profile in everything he did. Very few people knew he was actually Eric, the richest man in the country. But when it came to the Silverash's leader, no one even had a name, let alone knew their gender. Clearly this one was even more elusive.

"Mr. Rosewood, Robert mentioned that Ms. Lewis is planning to attend the upcoming awards ceremony with Ms. Larson. Um..." Bruce frowned slightly, hesitating before continuing, "Ms. Lewis, she..."
