Chapter 1015
“Are you absolutely certain about this?” Eva asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
Wanda gave a firm, decisive nod. “I’m completely sure. We don’t have any other options left. If this is what it takes to secure our future, then I’m prepared to sacrifice whatever I need to. And someday, when we’re strong again, I’ll come back here and make them all pay for what they did to us.”
“Perfect!” A wave of relief washed over Eva’s face, transforming her expression into one of genuine hope. Who said she was left with nothing? She still had her beautiful, intelligent daughter by her side.
Even though Wanda wasn’t her biological child, Eva had poured her heart into raising her with the finest care and attention. Now, they were bound together through thick and thin, united in their struggles and their dreams. Eva fumbled around on the ground for her phone. She then scrolled through her contact list with trembling fingers until she located a number she hadn’t called in many years. Without hesitation, she pressed the call button.
The connection went through almost immediately.
The person on the other end didn’t say a single word, yet somehow his presence filled the silence with an almost tangible force—an overwhelming sense of power that seemed to reach through the line.
Eva straightened her posture respectfully, even though he couldn’t see her, and spoke with careful deference. “Mr. Griffiths?”
“Go ahead,” came the flat response.
Though his voice was soft, it carried an authority that seemed to resonate in Eva’s very bones. There was something almost hypnotic about the way he spoke.
Wanda pressed herself closer to Eva’s side, positioning herself so she could hear every word of the phone conversation. Her heart was racing with a mixture of fear and anticipation.

She had absolutely no idea what this man looked like, how old he might be, or anything about his background or identity. But his voice was mesmerizing—smooth, rich, and filled with a magnetic charm that drew her in completely. He sounded relatively young, yet there was a refined dignity and natural command in his tone that most men never managed to achieve even after decades of experience. It was impossible to guess his age based on voice alone, but somehow that only made him more intriguing.
Even though Mr. Griffiths couldn’t see her through the phone, Eva found herself automatically maintaining a respectful, submissive posture as she continued, “Mr. Griffiths, I want you to know that I’m prepared to offer my daughter to you.” There was a long pause on the other end of the line, and Eva held her breath while she waited for his response.
After a long pause, that same calm, measured voice returned. “Have you thought things through thoroughly?”
Eva turned to look at Wanda, searching her daughter’s face carefully for any trace of hesitation or second thoughts.
But Wanda nodded firmly, her eyes bright with determination and something that might have been excitement. Even without laying eyes on this mysterious man, she was already completely enchanted by the sound of his voice. Her imagination painted a picture of a sophisticated, powerful man of extraordinary status—and she was more than willing to belong to someone like that. If she became the companion of such a distinguished man, surely some of his prestige and influence would become hers as well.
