Chapter 583

“Holy shit! What’s that?” Johnny’s startled shout caught everyone’s attention.

Everyone dropped whatever they were doing and looked up.

In the opposite building, the man lounged on the sofa, elbows propped on the armrests, watching the surveillance feed with amused interest.

The camera slowly panned, settling on Aria’s head.

She tilted her head up, her face unreadable, a carefully restrained chill in her eyes.

Her icy gaze silently accused the drone of ruining the festive atmosphere.

The music stopped dead. All laughter ceased as their cheerful faces turned guarded.

‘That’s more like it. It’s just a party. What’s there to be so happy about?’ Flynt thought.

Flynt didn’t get to enjoy his triumph for long. Through the camera feed, he saw Aria suddenly lunge upward with her knife, striking at the drone overhead.

The screen flickered, then went completely dark.

“Too bad,” Flynt chuckled coldly.

The drone crashed down. Johnny was about to approach it when Silvia instinctively grabbed his arm. “Mr. Oconnor, what are you doing?” she asked, her voice tense.

“You go check it out,” Johnny said.

Silvia said nervously, “What if… there’s a bomb? That’s what always happens in TV shows.”

Johnny tensed up, staring at the fallen drone. “You’ve got a point,” he said cautiously.

“It doesn’t have a bomb,” Owen said curtly.

Owen strode over, picked up the fallen drone, and carefully detached a small box from one of its rotor arms.

Owen was about to open it when Kim, standing closest, grabbed his wrist. “You don’t even know what’s inside and you’re just going to open it?”

Kim snatched the box from Owen and opened it.

Cloe shot Kim a look, both exasperated and amused.

Inside the box lay a tightly rolled banknote.

Cloe recognized it immediately. “It’s a Torrenian note-the old currency from Torrenia, It’s been out of circulation for six or seven years.”

The drone was strange, but that banknote was even stranger.

Someone asked, “Who sent this? And what do they want?”

Flynt watches the scene through his binoculars.

When Aria didn’t spare the banknote a single glance, Flynt’s eyes turned icy cold.

Aria said, “Let me see,” reaching out her hand.

Owen took the banknote from Kim’s hand and passed it to Aria.

Aria gently rolled the banknote between her fingertips. Its edges were yellowed with age, but it was remarkably well- preserved-clearly kept with great care.

Derek was completely baffled. “Is this a prank? Or did it just end up here by mistake?”

“Probably not,” Caleb said, shaking his head, his tone turning cold. “It looks like someone’s targeting Aria.”

Going through all this trouble just to deliver a banknote via drone was a bizarre thing to do.

Aria pocketed the banknote, then abruptly turned to stare at the high-rise opposite.

Flynt’s fingers tensed, a faint smirk playing at the corners of his lips.

‘She’s quite sharp, Flynt thought.

The next moment, Aria handed the banknote to Owen, murmuring something too low for the others to hear.
