Chapter 676: Chapter 676

Ten minutes later.

Rosemary spotted Mr. Clarence ambling solo towards the restroom. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Before his hand even grazed the restroom door, Rosemary knocked him out cold and dragged him to the adjacent terrace, swiftly drawing the curtains closed.

The head of security had just seen Rosemary heading in the direction of the restroom, and in the next moment, she had vanished from sight.

His instincts on high alert, he first searched the area, then had one of the maids knock on the restroom door.

The maid’s hand hadn’t even touched the door when a soft cough of a woman could be heard from inside.

It was so brief that the head of security couldn’t be sure if it was Rosemary or not. He could only stand aside and keep a stealthy watch.

Behind the curtain, Rosemary transferred all the chat messages from Mr. Clarence’s phone to her own and set up remote monitoring. Then, she slipped the phone back into Mr. Clarence’s pocket, leaped onto the roof, and flicked a pebble at him to wake him up.

Mr. Clarence grunted in pain, groggily coming to, immediately alerting the head of security.

The head of security pulled back the curtain to find Mr. Clarence sitting on the ground and hurried over to help him up.

"Mr. Clarence, what are you doing here?"

Mr. Clarence’s head throbbed painfully. He vaguely remembered heading to the restroom but couldn’t figure out how he had passed out.

Was it possible someone had tampered with something?

With this thought, he frantically checked his pockets. His keys and phone were still there—nothing seemed to be missing.

He breathed a sigh of relief. Maybe he had just run out of steam.

Just then, someone emerged from the restroom.

It was Eunice.

She walked with a seductive grace that caught the head of security’s eye, making him suspect something was amiss.

Eunice made her way to the main hall, right as Rosemary returned from a different route. Rosemary smiled and asked her darling niece,

"Got it?"

"Yep, it’s on my phone now."

Not only did Rosemary secure the chat history, but she also set up real-time monitoring of Mr. Clarence’s phone.

From then on, whatever messages Mr. Clarence received or sent, Rosemary would see them too.

Eunice cast an approving glance at her niece. She hadn’t expected one niece to be worth a hundred others.

Rosemary’s efficiency was so high, it was a true relief.

At that moment, Rosemary noticed Calvin, Bess, and Arlen descending the stairs with grim expressions, seeming to have parted on bad terms.

Then, Mr. Clarence received a message, which he relayed to Arlen. The gist was that the deed was done.

Arlen’s eyes flickered with shock and delight. He seemed to hardly believe it, but Mr. Clarence nodded affirmatively, as if to say, Rest assured, our people witnessed it.

Reassured, Arlen invited all the guests to the garden for a fireworks display.

Under the grand fireworks, Arlen urged all the guests to raise their glasses and drink to their heart’s content.

When the fireworks ended, he cut the cake amidst the crowd’s cheers.

"What could possibly make him so jubilant?" Eunice noticed Arlen had been beaming since the beginning, an expression of triumph she had never seen before.

"Somebody messaged Mr. Clarence a while ago, saying the problem had been taken care of," Rosemary explained. "Perhaps this was someone who had been a thorn in Arlen’s side."

"It can only be your grandfather or uncle, but that’s impossible," Eunice stated confidently. "They don’t have the means to take care of anyone."

A servant brought over slices of cake to them. Rosemary nibbled symbolically on a few bites, but soon after, she noticed guests collapsing one by one.

Several elders, flanked by dozens of their men, emerged.

Rosemary saw that it wasn’t just Calvin, Bess, Arlen, and Teresa. There were two other elders she didn’t recognize.

Eunice kept her smile. "Calvin and Arlen are in on this too?"

This was unexpected.

"What do you mean ’in on this’? We have no idea where these men in black came from!" Arlen said with a chuckle. "Your fighting skills seem quite polished. It’s not something you picked up overnight, right?"

"You don’t seem like someone who’d want me dead on a whim, either. When did this start?"

"Enough chit-chat, you wretch. Today’s grand birthday celebration will serve as your funeral!" Bess had never liked her. "And this little girl by your side, it’s your fault for bringing her along. You can keep each other company on the way to the underworld!"

Eunice laughed. "Bess, you’re acting high and mighty, even more so than my father-in-law. You’d think you were ready to take over this family. My in-laws aren’t dead yet, and you dare to be so bold! What, are you planning to usurp them?"

"Since your in-laws are bedridden, someone needs to take charge of this family, and you younger ones need to be kept in line!"

"The head of this family is Bard! If he knew what you’ve done today—"

Before Eunice could finish, Bess interrupted with a laugh.

"He won’t find out."

"What do you mean?"

"Even if he did, he can’t do anything about it!" Bess declared triumphantly. "We just received word. The plane he was on exploded mid-flight and everyone was turned to ash."

"That’s impossible," Eunice stated flatly.

"Whether you believe me or not, see for yourself in the video."

Bess pulled out her smartphone, showing footage of Bard’s private jet indeed exploding in the sky.
