    “Background check?”


    Osborne furrowed his eyebrows. Just as his second test of heirship was nearingpletion, Donna


    unexpectedly requested a background check. He couldn’t help but be anxious.


    Today was the third day of the test of heirship. Failing now, even with a slight dy, would result in


    his overall test failure:


    “How to review it?” Osborne asked in a deep voice.


    Donna calmly exined, “Osborne, I’m not trying to make things hard for you. In fact, everyone


    undergoes a background check. I can’t risk an untrustworthy person bing rissa’s


    bodyguard.


    “The difference is that the other four people are rmended by major securitypanies. They


    have already gone through background checks and are deemed reliable.


    “Due to theck of prior knowledge about you, I needprehensive information to ensure that you


    are not a spy infiltrated by adversaries.


    “However, your previous act of saving rissa’s life will be taken into ount, simplifying your


    background check. I just want to ask you a few questions.”

    Osborne breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the investigation would conclude swiftly, leaving no


    timing dys.


    “Go ahead.”


    Donna nced at rissa, who hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.


    Donna then smiled, “Osborne, I would like to remind you that you must answer the following


    questions absolutely truthfully. No lies will work!


    “rissa possesses a superpower that detects whether your statement is true or false. At present,


    no one can deceive her.”


    After she finished speaking, Osborne looked at rissa in shock.


    The superpower to distinguish truth from lies?


    rissa was actually a metahuman.


    Whilecking offensive or defensive capabilities, this power could prove highly effective when


    utilized skillfully.


    Osborne couldn’t help but be worried.


    “Osborne, it’s not toote for you to give up now and leave the Radcliffe Manor! Otherwise, if I


    uncover your ulterior motives, there will be consequences.”


    Donna red at him threateningly.

    After pondering for a while, Osborne nodded and said, “Go ahead. I will answer truthfully as long as


    it doesn’t involve my personal privacy.”


    At that moment, he had no way out.


    To Donna’s surprise, Osborne actually dared to ept her interrogation. He appeared quite


    composed, as if he had harbored no evil intentions.


    “I hope you are really upright!”


    With that, Donna posed the first question.


    “First of all, what is your purpose foring to the Radcliffe Manor?”


    In an instant, Osborne sensed a prating gaze upon him. He turned his head and found rissa


    scrutinizing him intently.


    Meanwhile, he felt as if she had seen through him.


    “Is this rissa’s ability?”


    Osborne was taken aback by this sensation, even feeling a slight twitch in his Satan’s Eye at that


    moment.


    He finally believed that rissa could really distinguish between truth and lies.


    After a moment of hesitation, he finally replied honestly, “To get close to Ms. Radcliffe and stay by


    her side.”

    These were all the requirements he had to meet for the test of heirship.


    He didn’t lie.


    His words caused rissa’s pretty face to flush red and a slight tremble to overtake her


    immediately, but she swiftly regained.posure, returning to her cold expression.


    Ophelia and Wesley both opened their mouths wide in disbelief.


    Did Osborne just admit that he had ulterior motives?


    Did he confess that he attempted to approach rissa and pursue her?


    Wesley was disdainful of him, assuming Osborne’s aspirations to be mere wishful thinking with no


    chance of sess.


    Ophelia’s face darkened.


    Osborne was her ex–husband anyway. He, however, displeased her by conceding that he had


    come to the Radcliffe Manor to be near rissa.


    Despite acknowledging that rissa overshadowed her in every way, including beauty, status, and


    background, Ophelia couldn’t hide her unhappiness.


    With a straight face, Donna asked coldly, “Do you confess to having feelings for rissa and


    intending to pursue her? Don’t

    “No,” Osborne replied calmly.

    “I wish to remain with Ms. Radcliffe, not out of a pursuit of her affections. Although I don’t deny that


    she is stunning and that I like her very much, this is not why I came here.”


    “What?”


    Frowning, Donna was puzzled. “It is contradictory, isn’t it? Don’t want to chase after rissa?”


    Osborne nodded again. “I haven’t considered it yet.”


    .He did have a crush on rissa, but he approached her solely to fulfill the test of heirship, never


    thinking of pursuing her.


    At least not now.


    Therefore, he answered very straightforwardly.


    Donna looked at rissa in surprise. “rissa, did he lie?”


    rissa’s expression was strange.
