Claiming to be his sister, in what way do you resemble his sister?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he said this, he sensed a familiar presence appear not far behind him, carrying a trace of deep coldness, calling,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Callum Yuan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone turned their heads, seeing Cassian Wolf had somehow arrived unnoticed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instinctively looking at Simon, their eyes clearly questioning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You said he was out of town?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simon exposed also displayed a calm demeanor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, he did it intentionally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Callum Yuan, a half-demon whelp from the Dragon Clan wandering outside, as soon as he appeared in Capital Metropolitan, Simon knew of his existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he also knew who brought him back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron Hearne never disclosed his relationship with Callum Yuan to outsiders, nor did he handle Callum Yuan’s admission into the Academy of Mystique or daily care personally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very few demons in the Mystic Regulation Office were aware, let alone Magnolia Hearne, who’d been gone for decades.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron Hearne hiding his Dragon Clan half-demon whelp, regardless of the purpose, if he chose to conceal, Simon, as his old adversary, seizing the chance to expose him...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isn’t that quite normal~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, Aaron Hearne also knew Magnolia Hearne’s appearance here was his doing, his gaze swept over distantly, but he said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Approaching, his eyes fell on Callum Yuan, then, before everyone could react.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A fox tail swung out from behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The speed was so fast that the crowd couldn’t react, and Callum Yuan was already swept to the ground by the tail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dashiell couldn’t help but exclaim, gazing at the flung-down Callum Yuan, instinctively wanting to step forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though they had just fought as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But seeing Callum Yuan being hit like this, he subconsciously frowned with displeasure, vaguely feeling guilty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for him transforming into dragon form causing a commotion that attracted Simon, Callum Yuan wouldn’t have been called a guardian, let alone beaten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why, why are you hitting?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dashiell opened his mouth to argue, but Aaron Hearne ignored him, simply looking at Callum Yuan on the ground, asking him,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you know your mistake?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Callum Yuan was knocked to the ground, his mouth slightly swollen, faintly bleeding, but upon hearing Aaron Hearne’s words, he instantly stood up, lowered his head, voice subdued and obedient,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Wen, I know my mistake.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not the mistake of actively bothering Dashiell causing a commotion and adding trouble for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the mistake of not showing due respect to Magnolia Hearne.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing him being beaten and still so docile in front of Aaron Hearne, Magnolia Hearne frowned, feeling vaguely uncomfortable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron Hearne did not look at her, simply turning to Simon,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is there any other punishment required?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This referred to his deliberate summoning of guardians.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simon only said, \"According to the rules, the relevant points must be deducted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused, then added looking at Dashiell,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not just the individual, the guardian’s also.\"’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dashiell: ...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being deducted points was not frightening, but deducting Scarlett Jennings’ and Samuel Chalmers’ too... he really dared not casually reveal dragon form causing trouble for the two afterward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings had enough points not to worry about being deducted, but!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s frustrating for her having points deducted every time trouble arose because of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially considering not long ago, she was deducted points because Lucas Jennings used a Silence Talisman on ordinary people without permission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now looking at Dashiell, her gaze was brooding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dashiell instantly felt his scalp tingle under her stare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samuel Chalmers didn’t mind being deducted points, nor did he care about Simon \"punishing\" him, seeing Scarlett like this, he simply petted her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice, low and tender, carried a hint of indulgence,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll make it up to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings was appeased, no longer staring at Dashiell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dashiell took the hint, quickly ingratiating himself, \"I’ll pay! Both yours and Brother Samuel’s share will be paid by me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deduction will be handled by the Security Bureau’s penalty department, Aaron Hearne was indifferent to those points, once the matter was resolved, he directly took Callum Yuan away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like he came, he left swiftly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simon successfully deducted points from the old rival, feeling elated, and prepared to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, he was suddenly stopped by Magnolia Hearne.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magnolia Hearne’s expression was somewhat serious, looking at him, she asked,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s the deal with Callum Yuan, the dragon whelp?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What she really wanted to know was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s the relationship between Callum Yuan and Aaron Hearne?\u003C\u002Fp>",1221,"2026-06-10T07:18:51.365Z",1,"novelbin.me","252f1bb4d00bc2b348acb1666a28bc29700b951755a1a8eafec4a89c0790b217","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-985","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-983",1286,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-cover.jpg"]
