Chapter 330
Shane pondered for a moment before turning to his assistant. “Mira has top-tier bodyguards protecting her now. Her security is airtight, making her a very difficult target.
Plus, she’s already severed ties with the Mercer family. From the looks of it, there’s not much love lost between them.
If we really want to derail the Mercer family’s focus, targeting her isn’t the most effective strategy. We need to go after someone else p>
“You mean p>
Shane nodded. “Who in the Mercer family do you think is the easiest target p>
Allen thought it over. “If we’re looking for an easy target who carries enough weight to completely ruin Ethan’s focus, it has to be Julian p>
Although Julian was physically capable, he was incredibly arrogant and reckless.
“I heard he has a major race coming up soon p>
Julian was ranked among the top ten professional race car drivers in the world.
After hammering out the details, Shane gave Allen one final warning. “Don’t make any sudden moves. Lay the groundwork first, and when the time is right, deliver a fatal blow to Ethan p>
Meanwhile, back at the hotel, Mira’s phone was blowing up.
The first call was from Liora and her friends.
“Mira, are you actually Lune? Is it true p>
“It’s true p>
“We always knew you were on another level, but we never expected you to be a literal god p>
Still, they understood that Mira must have had her own reasons for keeping it a secret.
“I’m still me, exactly the same as before. You guys are still my best friends and classmates p>
That afternoon, as Mira was putting on her jacket to head to the rehearsal studio, she received a call from the front desk.
“Miss Mercer, there are some people here to see you. They said their last name is Quinn p>
Quinn? She didn’t recall knowing anyone with that last name here. Since she was heading out anyway, she decided to stop by and see who it was.
A man and a woman were waiting in the hotel’s reception lounge.
The man appeared to be in his forties, tall and slender, with refined features that looked as though they had been meticulously carved from marble. There was a strange sense of familiarity in his face.
But she couldn’t quite place where that familiarity came from.
The woman seemed to be around Mira’s age, with luminous skin, large expressive eyes, and stunning curves.
“You’re looking for me p>
Mira met the man’s gaze, her expression tinged with confusion.
Behind her, however, Stone and Spider took one look at the visitors and instantly figured it out, though they remained silent.
“You’re Mira, right? I’m Sebastian, your uncle.
And this is Seraphina, your cousin p>
Mira finally understood why he looked so familiar. The contours of Sebastian’s face bore a striking resemblance to Lacey.
“Thank you for coming to see me.
However, I have officially severed ties with the Mercer family, and that includes cutting ties with Lacey.
Because of that, any familial connection between us no longer exists p>
Since they weren’t members of the Mercer family and hadn’t actually wronged her, Mira maintained a polite tone.
“While I don’t know the exact details
of the conflict
there’s that drove you apart,
no need to hold a grudge
forever over family disputes
“No. I will never reconcile with them in this lifetime p>
Sebastian sighed. “Alright. I don’t know the full story behind the issues you have with your family, so we’ll leave that aside for now.
The reason we came today is because of Eleanor. She’s getting older, and she desperately wants to see you p>
But Mira still refused.
After everything she had endured with the Mercers, she no longer believed in the concept of family.
Before leaving, Seraphina turned to Mira. “Right before Mara left Aethelgard, she tried calling Grandma, but Grandma hung up on her p>
Mira said nothing. She had no interest in involving herself in other people’s drama: With Stone and Spider flanking her, she walked out of the hotel.
“Mira p>
Just as Mira was about to step into her car, she suddenly heard
someone call out her name from
behind. She turned toward the
sound and saw a white haired
elderly woman.
“That’s Eleanor Quinn p>
Spider helpfully pointed out, uncharacteristically offering a piece of advice.
Mira had intended to keep walking, but seeing the frail, trembling figure of the old woman, she felt a lump in her throat.
Family? That was impossible. She would just treat this as a meeting with a stranger.
“Mom, why are you here p>
“Grandma p>
