His Heiress Wife (Retika)

Chapter 6: No Background Could be Found 

Things also happened at the Harrisons.

When Iven heard during the funeral that Seth agreed to the promise that he would get married to the Sullivan country bumpkin, he immediately rushed over to the Harrison's household.

As Seth's only friend, why didn't he know about this sooner? How was he ever going to survive in C City in the future? After all, he was the only heir to the Adams family.

Iven absolutely shouldn't lose his pride like this.

"Hey, Seth! Why didn't you tell me the news sooner?"

Iven asked, "Why did you agree to the engagement to that country bumpkin? Although she looks good, C City is as beautiful as a cow.Do you like her or something?"

Seth was busy looking through the company's financial reports.

lven however, continued chattering away like a pesky horsefly.

Then, Seth had enough of his chatter.

He finally put down the documents from his hands.He turned his head and out of the corner of his eye he glanced at Iven.

His gaze was calm, but it was cold like ice.

It was enough to make lIven feel the chills traveling down his entire spine, and his body broke out into a cold sweat.

He was so scared that he didn't dare to make another word leave his mouth.

He was scared that he might accidentally make Seth angry.

If this man exploded, then the fate of whoever ended up near him would be terrible

"Knock knock."

The knocking sound was like Iven's savior from his own doom.

"I'll open the door for you."

lven smiled and then proceeded to do it.

When Iven opened the door, the person who knocked was actually Austin.

He was Seth's assistant ever since they were children.

Coming from a family like the Harrisons, most of their assistants had been raised with them from a young age.

As a child, he was a companion, but when he would turn older, he would be an assistant.

Austin was the type to seclude himself from people and be quiet about life.

He hardly laughed or said anything.

Iven would call him Ice Face behind his back.

It was like an inside joke because Austin rarely showed any emotion at all.

After Austin entered the door, he glanced at Seth.

When he saw that Seth was silent, he knew right away that it was alright for lven to be there.

He then started to give a report.

"Seth, I have Melody Sullivan's information here."

"Hey!"

Iven's eyes lit up in excitement, "So you sent someone to check on the Sullivan girl.So you're really interested after all.Let me have a look"

After what he said, he snatched the document from Austin's hand.

lven was still excited, and he flipped it over.

Suddenly, lven became angry.He looked up from the sheet in his hands to Austin who was poker-faced at him.

"Ice Face, are you kidding me? Why did you give me a piece of white paper? Where's the information you got?"

In the document that Austin gave him, there was nothing about Melody Sullivan.

It was only her picture on a white sheet of paper, and her age stated right below it.

Iven thought that Austin did this as a prank.

That he gave him a blank document because he purposely didn't want him to see it.

Austin was used to Ilven being unreasonable.

So he just looked at him like always and did not move.

He stood there, with an expression in his eyes that seemed to mock him like he was looking at an idiot.

Iven, who was thankfully not that stupid, immediately realized what it meant.

His eyes widened in surprise, and more likely disbelief.

"You couldn't find it?"

He gasped, "It can't be...? There's no information?"

There was hope for him after all. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Austin nodded in agreement.

Iven was even more surprised to see him confirm his suspicions.

"There is actually information about the Harrison family.Could it be that the old man from the Sullivan's hid it?"

The Harrisons had enough information to cover the sky above C City.

They're very powerful with gaining resources and knowledge since their intelligence network was the best.

As long as a Harrison wanted to know something, there would be nothing that they wouldn't be able to find out.

Iven then rejected his idea.

"The old man couldn't have hidden it from the Harrison family.He doesn't have the ability to..."

He muttered, but it was loud enough to hear.

lven placed his hand under his chin in deep thought.

"But why cant we find anything about Melody Sullivan?"

He turned to Seth, wanting to see if maybe he had answers.

Seth's gaze fell onto the blank document, and a faint smile appeared on his handsome face.

"Interesting."

Seth mused to himself.

"Very interesting."

Seeing him smile, lven was too scared to even ask.

He knew that whenever Seth smiled, it didn't mean anything good.

It meant that someone was going to suffer.But he didn't know who this unlucky person was yet.
