Chapter 108 I Saved His Life

Axel glared at her with wide eyes, wishing he could shut her up.

When did Venus become so sharp-tongued?

Looking at her now, she seemed like a complete stranger!

Seeing him hesitate, Darcy said loudly, “That’s right. Everyone here is a witness. Mr. Burn, don’t go back on your word now!”

Axel gripped the microphone tightly and forced out the most humiliating words of his entire life.

“Fine. I’m a man of my word.

“Venus, you’re my sister. Sister, are you happy now?”

The crowd suppressed their laughter. They’d never seen Axel so humiliated before.

They were witnessing history!

Venus said with a smile, “Although you called me your sister, I don’t have a brother with such twisted values.”

Axel was speechless.

Venus continued, “But since you called me ‘sister, I’ll kindly advise you-as a sister—to turn over a new leaf.”

Axel’s face turned ashen. He wanted to kill her.

Darcy reminded him, “Mr. Burn, continue. You haven’t nished yet.”

Axel said through gritted teeth, word by word, “I hereby announce that Venus Burn has no connection to the Burns!”

A wealthy businessman scoffed. “Venus has already moved up in the world. That’s the Frosts from Vueburg we’re talking about. Who would even care about a small-time family like the Burns from Zrebert?”

“If you ask me, Axel is an idiot, His sister has such great prospects and instead of supporting and protecting her, he accuses her of being a thief. Would you want to be siblings with someone like that?”

“The top elite families in Vueburg have deep roots. I’m actually more curious about why Drake treats Venus so well.”

“Yeah, she’s short and plain-looking. What does she have that’s worth liking?”

“Shh, keep your voice down. Don’t you see how protective Darcy is of her?”

“Well, Venus must have something special about her. Otherwise, why would these young talents treat her so well?”

“I’ve honored my bet, Venus. I hope you can stick to the choice you made today,” Axel said coldly. “Don’t come crawling back when someone throws you away!”

Today was the most humiliating day of his entire life!

From now on, he would absolutely never interfere in Venus’s business again. Even if she ended up

miserable in the future, dying in the street, he wouldn’t even spare her a glance!

After saying this, Axel threw down the microphone and stormed off.

Finished

Curious people came over with business cards, saying they wanted to get to know Venus, but they just wanted to use her to connect with Drake and his elite family.

Venus politely declined them all.

After obtaining the ancient silver artifact, Venus left the gallery.

Darcy worried she might be in danger carrying around 600-million-dollar artifact, so he offered to drive her home.

On the way, watching her carefully examine the ancient silver artifact the entire time, Darcy wanted to speak several times but held back.

“Mr. Weston, are you just as curious as everyone else about why Drake gave me such a huge check?”

Darcy’s face turned red. “Would it be too forward if I asked directly?”

“It’s fine. You’re my friend. It doesn’t hurt to tell you.” Venus said, “I saved his life. It’s that simple.”

Darcy had a sudden realization. “That’s Drake for you. When he makes a move, he’s generous.”

Six hundred million to pay for his life? For someone at Drake’s level, that was just pocket change.

Darcy thought for a moment, then asked, “Ms. Oracle, do the Burns still not know about your identity and abilities?”
