Chapter 62: Yannis Make a Move (Part 1)

The three stall owners hadn't finished their conversation when Amalia suddenly packed up her stall, and preparing to leave. They almost thought their conversation had affected her.

"Leaving so early, little sister? There are still several hours until sunset," the chubby stall owner asked cheerfully.

"Yeah, I got something to do, so I'm closing up early today," Amalia replied.

The thin stall owner subtly sighed in relief, suddenly noticing the old stall owner smiling at him, which made his face tense up again.

As she walked out, Amalia dialed Samuel's communicator. "What happened to Carlos?"

Samuel look gloomy, he said: "Carlos is suffering because of me. After Francisco's plan failed, the blame shifted to Carlos. They secretly sabotaged not only the business Carlos's parents had worked hard for but also burdened them with debts."

Furrowing her brows, Amalia's eyes darkened, reminding her of her own parents. Why were these people so fond with such tricks?

"That's not the worst part for Carlos. What's really making him suffer is the betrayal from his uncle's family," Samuel explained, his face growing grim.

"Francisco knows very well how to torment someone. Carlos already disliked his uncle's family, and now, egged on by Francisco, they're trying to seize his family's assets."

Thinking about it made Samuel feel uneasy.

"How is he now?" Amalia inquired.

"What can he do? He's trying to help his parents pay off the debts and regain the property snatched by his uncle," Samuel explained.

"Your family's power should be stronger than Francisco's. Can't you help him take it back? Their methods surely leave some traces," Amalia suggested.

Samuel bitterly smiled, "I thought about it initially, but I'm afraid for my own safety."

"Why?" Amalia asked, puzzled.

"Somebody is targeting my family behind the scenes, and it coincides with the trouble in Carlos's family," Samuel explained. "I can't help but think too much."

"Are you sure it's related to Carlos's issue?" Amalia kept a serious face. "With the Salvador's influence in Big Apple City, there should be very few who could counter your family."

"Though it sounds that way, it doesn't mean it's not possible. I've investigated but couldn't trace the mastermind," Samuel said with an uneasy expression.

"Usually, there's only one possibility— the mastermind's status and family background is surpass mine."

"Do you have any suspects?" Amalia inquired.

"The Yoder, the Rodriguez, the Zeigler, and a few others," Samuel mentioned.

Upon hearing 'Rodriguez,' Amalia's expression suddenly cooled. She thought it might be the Rodriguez, but in a split second, she dismissed the idea.

The Rodriguez couldn't possibly know. If Arthur knew about Carlos and his relationship with her, he wouldn't only target Carlos; But he'd likely threaten her foster parents too, which would be more effective.

"It's not the Rodriguez," Amalia stated firmly.

Samuel looked at her in surprise; her tone was too certain, make him raising doubts about whether Amalia knew something.

However, he didn't ask, he understand that everyone had their own secrets. "Then it's probably the Yoder or the Zeigler."

Chapter 63: Yannis Make a Move (Part 2)

Amalia recalled something, "The probability of it being the Yoder is high. Yannis once tried to buy an artifact from my store, but I refused."

Samuel shook his head wryly. "Yannis is someone who holds grudges strongly. Your refusal was a blow to his ego. No wonder. I can be fairly sure it's him, just need more evidence."

Samuel remembered attending two gatherings with Yannis. At the time, Yannis had given him several curious looks. He hadn't understood back then, but now he finally did.

the Cabello were connected to the Salvador through a longstanding relationship, and he had also interacted with Carlos a few times.

It was evident that Yannis was probably worried that he would help Carlos. If so, the situation should be relatively manageable.

At that moment, Samuel was unaware and thinking that Yannis's actions were just minor troubles for the Salvador; But the real threat was yet to come.

Upon receiving the message, Amalia left a reply for Carlos and transferred several million to his account.

Within five minutes, Carlos responded, sounding quite anxious, "Big Sister, why did you transfer so much money to me?"

He thought he had hidden things well, and Amalia wasn't aware of this.

"The matter in your family is indirectly related to me; you're suffering because of me. Use this money to repay your family's debts first," Amalia got straight to the point.

Carlos fell silent for a few seconds.

"Did Samuel tell you?" It wasn't exactly a question; he knew that only few people knew about his family's situation, and among them Samuel was the only one who connected to Amalia.

"Don't overthink it. I'll handle Francisco's side," Amalia insisted, not accepting any refusal.

"But this is my issue. I don't want to trouble you, Big Sister. Francisco doesn't like me in the first place, so it has nothing to do with you. You don't have to transfer money; I can handle it by myself," Carlos said with a bowed head.

"Do you still want to go to Heavenly Path University?" Amalia asked.

Carlos's face lost a bit of color, forcing a strained smile, he said: "If I can't get in, there's nothing I can do. I wasn't going to pass the exam anyway. Perhaps it's the heavens telling me not to overreach and dream too big."

Amalia furrowed her brow. "If this is what it means to dream big, where do you place those who strive and struggle for their dreams?"

Carlos lowered his head in embarrassment.

"Don't dwell on it too much," Amalia softened her tone. "Focus on preparing for the university entrance. Leave the rest to me."

"Okay," Carlos nodded.
