Chapter 1013


    Chapter 1013 Ascension Ceremony Began


    "The ascension ceremony is tomorrow. There''s something I wish to discuss with you, Mother." Liam


    walked to the couch and sat down without crossing his legs as he always did. Instead, he looked at


    Tanya with a stern gaze. "The ceremony will not go well. Have you thought about how you are going to


    deal with that, Mother?"


    "I am fully prepared for that." Tanya sat opposite him, revealing a tender smile. "You normally don''t pay


    attention to such things. Why the sudden concern?"


    "Nothing much. I''m just worried about Eleanor." Liam sighed. "I have four older sisters, but two of them


    unfortunately passed away. The youngest among them is mentally disabled, and you never dared to


    announce her identity to the world. I''m worried that if something happens to Eleanor, the hidden n


    will have no sessor…"


    "Utter nonsense!" Tanya shot him a reprimanding stare.


    "It''s purely hypothetical!" Liam looked at his mother. "If—and I mean if—something were to happen to


    Eleanor, who would be the next head of the n?"


    "That…" His question left Tanya stunned. Her face grew taut asplication and weightiness arose in


    her deep eyes.


    "It''s Dominik, isn''t it?" Upon her hesitation, he straightforwardly continued, "Although the position of the


    head of the n is not typically passed down to a male heir, you''ll allow only Dominik to seed in the


    position if Eleanor gets in trouble. After all, you understood that the position can be seized, and it


    wouldn''t be bad for a man to be your sessor."

    As if Liam''s statement hit the bullseye, Tanya grew silent.


    "I''m here today to give you something." Liam pulled out a thumb drive from his pocket and put it on the


    table. "You''ve been having a hard time looking for the cause of my sisters'' deaths, right? It''s all in


    here."


    After cing it on the table, Liam remained quiet, getting up and ready to walk out of the room. Right


    as the door was shut, he added a piece of advice to Tanya. "Tomorrow, not only will we need to stay


    cautious against the Elrods, but the ''snake'' among us as well."


    With Liam gone, Tanya stared at the thumb drive on the table. She then picked it up and toyed with it


    with her fingers before eventually turning on herputer. Afterward, she inserted the thumb drive and


    opened the documents and video footage saved within. After she looked through the files, her face


    dramatically changed.


    Hourster, under the clear, sunny day at the hidden n''s territory, the ascension ceremony


    commenced, and it was held in an arena not far away from the pce. The elders got to their


    respective seats, with guards all over the arena, while Dominik was in charge of the arena''s security


    and ensuring that Eleanor sessfully became the head of the n.


    Donning a traditional gown of the hidden n, Tanya got to her seat, which was the primary seat near


    the podium.


    Meanwhile, as Eleanor was getting ready to enter the arena, Liam suddenly came over and grabbed


    her hand. "Eleanor, spare me a minute." He then dragged her to the dressing room and handed her an


    item from his bag. "Put this on. It might save your life."


    "What is this?"


    "A bulletproof vest." Liam took out the bulletproof vest. "I had someone tailor it for you a month ago.


    The material is very light, so it won''t be visible. Hurry, put this on."


    "Thank you, Liam." Comforted, Eleanor revealed a smile on her elegantly dolled-up face and epted


    the vest. "Okay, give me the room for a second. I''ll put it on right away."


    "Be quick," Liam reminded before exiting the dressing room and waiting outside.


    A couple of minutester, Eleanor came out, to which he asked, "How is it? Comfortable?"


    "Yes, it is. As you said, it''s very light."
