The 24th Century Warrior Became a Fake Heiress novel Chapter 69

A Superpowered Warrior in a Fake Heiress’s Body

Chapter 69 Strategic Alliance

His heart was still hammering against his ribs.

Under normal circumstances, his big brother never set foot in the estate at this hour.

At the very least, he stayed clear until dusk just to avoid getting triggered into a physical confrontation:

As Noah opened his mouth to whine, Isabella threw a lazy glance over his shoulder, murmuring flatly, You brought this on yourself with that pathetic baseline behavior.”

Noah gaped in total frustration, throwing his hands up dynamically.

Wait, whose side are you even on?

He looked completely done with everything.

While Isabella and Noah locked onto their study hour, Ethan headed down to the subterranean tactical compound.

The Wayne estate housed a massive underground training facility fully authorized for live ammunition.

Given their elite military profile, Ethan and his staff possessed specialized federal clearance to execute high- intensity combat drills directly on the property.

Stepping into the range, Ethan systematically discharged his sidearm, drilling hole after hole into the center of the moving targets.

Mid–drill, his tactical terminal buzzed with an incoming transmission–it was the granular audit he had ordered on Isabella’s profile.

Long before he had wrapped up his conversation with her in the foyer, his security network was already parsing her background data.

Unclipping his earpiece, he scrolled through the encrypted dossier.

The biological Powell heiress, missing for fifteen consecutive years, recently extracted from a remote mountain village.

A look of genuine surprise washed over Ethan’s face.

During their brief chat, he had noted her posture was entirely different from the typical high–society debutantes, never expecting her childhood had been a brutal survival inside a human trafficking ring.

Scanning the raw background logs with a deadpan expression, he quietly slipped his terminal back into his pocket.

The audit was complete, and the variables were stable.

The Wayne security protocol required absolute verification, especially since Noah had breached his baseline rules to bring a classmate home.

Running a background sweep on Isabella was merely a standard operational procedure.

But this small–town girl was undeniably impressive.

Considering she had spent fifteen years trapped in manual labor, her ability to return and completely master the advanced high school curriculum within weeks was staggering.

Furthermore, Ethan had personally reviewed her tailored diagnostic sheets; the logic paths were exceptionally elegant and off–the–charts brilliant.

Clearly, the second she was extracted, she must have killed herself pulling all–nighters to absorb the entire educational system.

On top of that, her raw cognitive capacity was a complete statistical anomaly.

Having an asset like her anchor Noah’s schedule gave him a profound sense of operational security.

Narrowing his eyes, Ethan turned the data over in his mind.

He recalled the intelligence reports detailing her current standing within the Powell mansion–she was treated like total dirt.

The Powells already possessed an adopted daughter, brought into the household the exact year Isabella went missing, who was currently identical in age.

Regardless of what psychological coping mechanism drove the Powells back then–whether it was toxic guilt or simple replacement therapy, the hard fact remained that Isabella’s rightful status had been entirely hijacked by a parasite, leaving her biological position incredibly compromised.

A girl straight from the wilderness trying to reclaim her birthright facing a hyper–elitist social circle–Ethan didn’t need a calculator to deduce the exact type of systematic desertion Isabella was absorbing at home.

In fact, parsing Noah’s sudden demand to bring her onto the payroll, he handled his younger brother’s real motivations instantly.

The boy must have caught wind of her backwoods background and felt a sudden protective trigger, but lacking the emotional maturity to express it, he invented this elaborate tutoring scheme to give her sanctuary inside the Wayne compound.

Then again, Isabella’s pedagogical delivery was undeniably elite, explicitly customized to crack Noah’s defense.

She really is a natural–born prodigy.

It was a tragic waste of potential.

Had she never been snatched, her raw intellectual capacity backed by the full leverage of the Powell Group would have sculpted her into a legendary prodigy long ago.

Ethan evaluated the strategic options carefully.

Noah demanding she act as his tutor was clearly a play to weaponize the Wayne family name to upgrade her leverage inside her own household.
