Her Story: Rise Of Tiffany

This life was different from her past one, and Kenneth wasn’t the same as he was before.

Without even realizing it, her fate had changed. The life she was living now wasn’t like the one she had had before. For the first time, she could let go of the past and look at Kenneth without the weight of hatred.

Tiffany knew the trip to the Azure Sea Royal Palace had been dangerous. If not for Kenneth, getting back to Lovell City safely wouldn’t have been easy. He had saved her.

‘Guess we’re even now,‘ she thought.

Tiffany blinked and sighed. “Kenneth, even though I think you’re annoying and kind of a jerk sometimes, I have to admit, you were loyal this time. It’s one of the few things you’ve done right.”

‘One of the few things? Thanks?‘ Kenneth couldn’t help but be a little irritated, but also amused. When he looked at Tiffany’s bright eyes, though, he realized what it meant.

Her being able to joke with him meant she had let go of the grudges from the past.

Kenneth smiled, the expression on his handsome face softening. “You should really take care of that face of yours. If you don’t, you’ll end up with a scar,” he said.

“It’s fine,” Tiffany shrugged. Her self–healing ability was strong. Even though the wound was deep and hurt, she knew it would heal up in no time.

“Bye now,” Tiffany said, turning and walking down the path toward Luna Villa.

Then, Kenneth went back to the helicopter, and it lifted off with a low hum, flying off into the distance.

The sound of the helicopter was loud enough to make the servants in Luna Villa think something had happened. They quickly turned on the lights and rushed over, thinking someone had broken in. When they saw Tiffany, they shouted, “Miss you’re back!”

“Yeah,” Tiffany nodded, about to ask about June when she heard June’s voice.

“My lady!”

Through her blurry vision, Tiffany made out the shape of June rushing toward her, panic in her voice. “Miss, are you hurt?” she asked.

June noticed the deep bloodstain on Tiffany’s face and couldn’t help but look her over with worry. When she saw there weren’t any other serious injuries, she let out a big sigh of relief.

That day in the valley, after the ambush and the helicopter crash, everyone had to jump to survive.

Thankfully, the fall wasn’t too high, and there was a stream at the bottom. They all landed in it, and aside from some minor cuts and bruises, everyone was fine. But the stream had swept them away, and they got separated.

June and the others ended up upstream, while Tiffany was carried downstream.

Worried Tiffany might not be able to swim, June had searched along the stream for ages. She only found Galaxy–the bow and arrow, but no sign of Tiffany.

They had planned to stay in the valley that night, but an unfamiliar man told them Tiffany had been taken by the locals. He promised her safety.

With no other choice, June reluctantly headed back to Lovell City. She never imagined Tiffany would be back so soon.

“I honestly thought those people were just making things up. I didn’t expect you to actually be fine. I’m so glad you’re okay,” June said, practically glowing with happiness.

Then, she asked, “So, who did you end up with? And what happened to your face, Miss?”

“I’m fine,” Tiffany replied, brushing it off. But her next question came out sharp. “Nothing big happened in Lovell City in the last couple of days, right? And what about Royal Bay?”

“Nothing from Royal Bay–everything’s blocked off. I’ve asked around but couldn’t find anything about Mr. Hampton,” June answered.

Tiffany nodded. That was about what she expected.

“But,” June continued, “because of the engagement party mess, Kelley Group’s stock tanked. And people are roasting you online.”

The criticism was pretty subtle, but honestly, everyone probably just wanted to punch her.

Tiffany raised an eyebrow. This wasn’t a surprise, either. If they wanted to curse her, fine. If they hated her, whatever. She didn’t care.

She gripped the box tighter and headed toward the Medicinal Haven in the basement.

June followed behind her, looking like she wanted to say something. After a moment, she spoke up. “Uh, I just got word. Something big just happened in Lovell City.”

“Spill it,” Tiffany replied, not stopping.

“It’s the Harper family… they’re in trouble.”

Tiffany stopped dead in her tracks, frowning. “Wait, what? The Harper family? What could happen to them?”

“Apparently, about three hours ago, a group of people broke into their place. Mr. Ryan Harper got stabbed nine times and died on the spot. His wife’s fine, but she is hurt.”

Tiffany’s eyes widened as June hesitated. “And, uh, there were other casualties. Some of the servants. But the worst part, Mr. Romeo Harper is in the ER, hasn’t come out yet. And Miss Alexia Harper… her mouth was sewn shut.”

Tiffany staggered back, her mind racing. Three hours ago, she and Kenneth had just been dealing with those killers and were on their way back to the helicopter.

She didn’t expect this kind of chaos at the Harper family’s place.

Kenneth was going to take this hard when he arrived. Especially since he wasn’t even there—he had been in Azure Sea Royal Palace because of her.

Tiffany’s expression shifted as she quickly ran into the Medicinal Haven, grabbed a few glass bottles, and handed the box with the Eternal Herb to June. “Keep this safe,” she said, her tone serious.

Then, without a second thought, she rushed out. “Get the car ready, now!”

The servant didn’t waste any time. The car started up and raced toward the Harper family’s manor.

June stood frozen, processing Tiffany’s reaction. She hadn’t expected it to be so intense. As she stood there, a thought popped up in her mind. ‘Could the person who saved Tiffany in the valley… actually be Kenneth?‘

At the Harper family manor, the helicopter touched down with a slow, eerie descent. The silence around them was unnerving.

Kenneth, dragging his injured leg, stepped out of the helicopter and made his way toward the courtyard, each step heavy with tension.

But something felt off. Normally, there would be servants and bodyguards everywhere. Yet, other than the bright lights still on, there wasn’t a sound in the air.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

‘What’s going on here? This is way too strange,‘ Kenneth thought speeding up his pace. His first stop was Romeo’s place. It was a complete mess. The area near the fig tree had been dug up, and there was still blood on the ground.

The light overhead had been shattered, and strange, jagged footprints were all over the once–pristine bed. It was clear that someone had broken in–and it wasn’t just one person.

Kenneth’s heart raced. He gestured to his subordinates, his voice shaky. “Go check the other areas!”

His team scattered, and soon, they started hauling bodies out–three servants, and then Ryan, covered in blood.

“Dad?” Kenneth froze, his stomach dropping. Seeing his father’s face lying lifeless on the ground was like a punch to the gut. His mind went blank, the shock hitting him like a freight train.
