The 24th Century Warrior Became a Fake Heiress novel Chapter 171

Chapter 171 The Legacy

Finished

Truth be told, if it hadn’t been for Isabella’s overwhelmingly powerful supernatural abilities, her SSS–Tier mental power alone would have made her an exceptional support specialist–someone perfectly suited to develop and control advanced machinery. And in the 24th century, combat capability wasn’t limited to those with supernatural gifts.

As Isabella carefully addressed the Carter Group team’s questions, Eugene, standing off to the side, was caught by surprise.

Summit Manor?

He knew more about the place than Brett did.

That estate had a long and storied history.

It had been standing long before the Crestview Heights development even broke ground.

Rumors said it was originally built during the Gilded Age, back in the late 19th century.

In fact, a big reason why wealthy families had started building mansions in this area was precisely because Summit Manor was already here–its presence had essentially drawn them in, transforming the land around Crestview Heights into an exclusive, top–tier enclave.

The owner of Summit Manor was said to have connections that reached the highest corridors of power.

Their roots ran deep, and their influence was substantial.

What’s more, due to certain circumstances, they were heavily tied to overseas interests.

They were a unique kind of player–not really part of the local Caporia social circuit.

To put it more accurately, they weren’t connected to the established elite families in the area.

These were people who dealt in pure “influence“.

And now Isabella was staying at Summit Manor.

Eugene’s mind immediately linked this to the Wayne family.

Had Ethan stepped in because he didn’t like how things were unfolding?

Eugene had heard earlier that Isabella was tutoring Noah–was she going to his place for that?

He wasn’t entirely clear on the details. Brett had come back complaining once that Noah had no sense of propriety, asking Isabella to teach him–how was she supposed to do that, coming straight from the countryside?

But then Brett changed his tune, mentioning that Isabella was going over to Noah’s place every day for lessons.

Did he think Noah was actually alright?

Eugene’s brow furrowed slightly.

He’d actually considered hiring a private tutor for Isabella himself, to help her catch up academically. The Powells would never have provided that, but he’d been more than willing–and his whole family supported the idea.

He’d only dropped it after hearing that Noah and his family were already handling it.

And Ethan had seemed genuinely fond of Isabella when he brought her to the Carter family before.

If Ethan had taken the initiative to secure this estate for her to stay in, that was considerate of him. The thought brought Eugene some quiet relief.

With Isabella at Summit Manor, she’d be close to the Carter family. They could visit back and forth easily.

A faint smile touched his lips.

He wondered how much Summit Manor had cost.

Probably not cheap.

But Eugene figured he’d ask Ethan about it when he got the chance. If an opportunity arose, he’d like to buy the place outright.

That way, Isabella could stay there for good.

Besides, he was about to short Powell Group’s stock anyway!

That money might as well go to Isabella.

After all, the Powells owed her that much.

Eugene made up his mind.

Before, he wouldn’t have even considered Summit Manor–properties like that weren’t simply for sale.

It wasn’t just about having the funds; you needed the right connections, and you had to be able to get a word in with the owners.

But if the estate was now under Ethan’s control, negotiating would be much simpler.

And if it was for Isabella, Ethan and his people would probably be glad to help, wouldn’t they?

Just as that thought crossed his mind, Vex’s synthesized voice wrapped up on the other side of the room.

“Alright. All major issues are resolved now.

you’ll have the most
