Chapter 690
Tiffany’s body was trembling.
The answer was too absurd for her to believe. No matter how much she doubted, every time she recalled Richard’s hurried and evasive words earlier, she couldn’t stop shaking.
She didn’t expect this answer at all.
She never imagined that behind all Richard’s warmth, he had a relationship with another woman.
Tiffany’s face turned pale, and her body trembled slightly.
The Treasure Box finally realized it had said something it shouldn’t have. It cautiously asked, “Master, are you alright?”
Under the pressure of Tiffany’s threat, it had no choice but to reveal part of the truth. Tiffany shouldn’t know what had happened after she died in the previous timeline. The blue glow of the box grew brighter with its nervousness.
Barefoot, Tiffany got off he bed. She pulled her phone out of her coat and shakily dialed June’s number.
Due to her unstable emotions, it took two attempts to successfully connect.
“Miss Kelley?” June’s voice sounded drowsy as if she had already been lying down, but she quickly regained alertness. “What happened?”
Come pick me up.” After dropping those words, Tiffany climbed out of her bedroom window and disappeared into the night.
Left behind on the bed, the Treasure Box flickered, as if desperate to follow. But no matter how much it called for Tiffany, she didn’t look back. Due to the distance, the Treasure Box slipped into sleep once again.
Twenty minutes later, June saw Tiffany walking alone, barefoot. Her figure moved through the darkness beneath the mountains at Royal Bay.
June became anxious. She immediately stopped the car and rushed over to her. “Why did you come out like this? What happened? You’re not wearing shoes, you’re not wearing a coat, and your hands are freezing!”
June’s worry was palpable, and she hurriedly got Tiffany into the car.
Throughout the drive, Tiffany remained silent, not responding to any of June’s questions. She only muttered, “It’s nothing.”
June knew something must have happened.
Anxious, June grabbed her phone, ready to call Richard.
They had just returned from Azure Sea Royal Family’s estate not even two hours ago. Yet in this period, things seemed to have changed so drastically.
June suspected they had argued or had some conflict. Whatever it was, it must have been serious for Tiffany to leave in the middle of the night.
However, before she could make the call, Tiffany snatched the phone away.
For the first time, Tiffany said with a cold tone, “Don’t ask. Don’t call him.”
June looked up, meeting Tiffany’s determined gaze.
This was the first time Tiffany had spoken in such a commanding manner.

June nodded. “Okay,”

No matter what had happened, she would always stand by Tiffany’s side. If Tiffany said not to call, then she wouldn’t. If Tiffany said not to ask, she wouldn’t.
Tiffany handed the phone back to June, then curled up quietly in the back seat,
Another five or six minutes later, they finally arrived at Luna Vill
The first thing Tiffany did was to give instructions as she made her way back to her room. “Change the security system. No one is allowed to enter without my permission.”
“Understood!” June immediately complied.
Tiffany returned to her bedroom, closed the door, and shut out the world.
The servants were bewildered. They asked, “What happened? Why does Miss Kelley look so upset?”
It wasn’t just being upset. There was an overwhelming, suffocating tension around her.
June shook her head. “I don’t know. Don’t ask. Just do your jobs.”
“Yes!” The servants dispersed quickly, each focusing on their duties.
June updated the entire security system, even replacing the gate’s password lock with the latest model. She also activated the electric shock net devices as an extra precaution.
After finishing all these tasks, she looked up at Tiffany’s bedroom window. The light was off.
Tiffany had allowed herself to be consumed by darkness, as if she were a frightened hedgehog, with sharp spikes protruding. wrapping herself in them to keep others at bay.
Sighing deeply, June turned and went back to her room.
Richard went to the local police station. He went to bail someone out. That person was Kenneth.
Two days ago, Kenneth had gone with his men and weapons to confront Felix. A violent skirmish broke out with Felix’s men, who had yet to leave his villa. The commotion was loud, and Kenneth ended up being arrested.
With such serious charges, the only person who could get him out was Richard.
By late night, Kenneth’s handcuffs were finally removed.
He approached Richard, lowered his head, and said in a muffled voice, “Thank you for your help.”
Richard glanced at him, his expression unreadable. “You messed up something this small?”
Kenneth remained silent.
His plan had been well thought out, but there had been a traitor among his men. One of them had warned Felix before Kenneth’s team could fully surround him, causing Felix to flee and even alert the police.
Kenneth was so close to getting rid of Felix. He seethed with frustration.
Richard was too lazy to lecture him. He had wasted a lot of time just to get him out of this mess.
His mind was still preoccupied with Tiffany. Immediately, Richard got in his car and drove off.

The car sped toward Royal–Ray. Finally, they had arrived.
Stretching his long legs, Richard got out of the car. Looking up, he saw the light in the bedroom on the second floor. His cool expression softened, and he smiled faintly.
Garry noticed Richard’s expression and joked with John, “He’s always showing off in front of us single guys, never thinking about how we feel.”
John, in his usual naive way, responded, “Actually… I don’t mind
As long as Richard and Tiffany were happy together, John’d be happy to see their display of affection.
Garry feigned an exaggerated expression of heartache. “Which side are you on?”
Their voices were low, but Richard still caught the exchange. He raised an eyebrow, his smile never fading. Ignoring Garry’s complaints, he walked briskly into the villa.
The servants greeted, “Mr. Hampton.”
Before they could finish gust of wind swept past as Richard’s tall figure quickly disappeared up the stairs.
Seeing his eagerness, several older servants exchanged knowing glances and stifled their laughter.
The door to the bedroom opened, and Richard entered.
On the large bed, the covers were slightly messy, showing that Tiffany had been there earlier. The Treasure Box was carelessly placed on the bed. Seeing the casual way she had left it, Richard couldn’t help but smile helplessly.
While others treated the Treasure Box like a treasure, Tiffany seemed to treat it like junk.
Richard put the Treasure Box back into the cabinet. He guessed Tiffany was likely in the bathroom, soaking in the tub. He opened the bathroom door.
Inside, the room was empty.
Richard’s smile faded, and an unsettling premonition filled his chest.
