Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress

The lights in the study were a little dim and the colorful glass windows appeared a little melancholic. They were no longer as beautiful or vibrant as they usually were. Duke Moville sat in front of the desk and stared at the sculpture of Catherine the Great, his eyes glassed over. All he could think about was the glory enjoyed by the Moville Family during the Renaissance period.

However, their glorious past had become history.

The Moville Family was no longer as powerful or authoritative as they used to be.

Ever since he became a duke, he had set his mind to rebuild his family’s reputation and gain the glory back. However, the fact that he still could not salvage their family’s power despite having resorted to plenty of scheming tricks, made him feel rather dejected.

Now that the Ivanov Family whom he had been relying on had become powerless and useless, he wanted to use the marriage between Avrora and Si Yiyan to control Lucifer. However, the stumbling block Wen Xinya suddenly appeared out of nowhere and made use of Avrora’s stupidity to sabotage his plan.

The thought of Wen Xinya acting outrageously and making a fool out of Avrora just because she had Lucifer to back her up, he began to glare daggers, wishing he could destroy her and rip her into bits. He then thought about how concerned Si Yiyan was about her and his aura became terrifyingly sinister. He hoped that the operation would proceed smoothly tonight.

The sounds of footsteps shuffling could be heard coming from outside the study, after which the door was pushed open and Duke Mo strode in together with Anatoli.

An icy cold look formed in Duke Moville’s eyes as he asked, “How’s the matter progressing?”

With the document, they would be able to have a stronger and more stable position amongst the Russian aristocrats. He refused to believe that Rex would hand the document over easily.

Rubbing his throbbing temples, Duke Moville said, “I understand that, of course. I just want to test him.”
