On the one hand, they wanted to comfort Garrick's wounded emotions. On the other hand, since Yulia was skilled in medicine, she could help change his bandages in time. Naturally, the Hawkins Family also received the invitation.

When the Hawkins family's butler came in with the invitation, Yulia had just finished taking out Garrick's stitches. "Garrick. you're all set. It's fully healed now, and no more bandages needed" Yulia said.

Garrick seemed to have recovered quite well, but unlike his previous robust self, he could now only move around in a wheelchair or use a cane. He was, after all, not fully able anymore.

Hearing Yulia's words, Garrick sighed deeply, saying, "Well, that's how it is. Considering the situation that day, I'm just happy to have survived, but still, there's a little bit of reluctance for me

As he spoke, he glanced at Rita, who was sipping her tea beside him, while Rita didn't say anything, just still taking a quiet sip

of tea.

Soon, their butler came rushing over. "Garrick, Rita, Gina, and Yulia, you're all here, that's great," He said after knocking on the door.

Gina glanced at the butler standing at the door and asked, "What's going on?"

The butler took out two invitations. "These were delivered by someone from the Muller family for you all. They just handed them to me and left, he explained.

"That person left quickly, so I didn't ask anything." he added.

When they heard the invitation was from the Muller family, all four of them were a bit surprised.

"Rita, what's this about? Aren't you both here? Why is the invitation needed? Didn't you know about this?" Gina immediately asked.

Rita and Yulia both looked visibly unaware.

Garrick scolded disapprovingly at Gina's question. "Stop talking Hand me those invitations quickly so I can take a look," he said when seeing Rita remained silent.

Upon hearing this, the butler stepped forward and handed both invitations to Garrick. "Sir, they're both here," he said. Garrick quickly opened the invitation, skimming through it, and then looked over at Rita, who was still quietly seated. "Rita, it says there's a party this weekend at the banquet hall in the Betrico, Clusia. The invitation is extended to all the Muller family's friends and families, both locally and internationally.

"Look, it's at the banquet hall in Betrico, which isn't easy to get into without some connections. They're really pulling out all the stops," Carrick said to Rita, looking like cautious.

Yulia picked up one of the invitations and began to read it. After finishing, she looked also puzzled, since she honestly hadn't heard about this event.

Although Rita kept her composure, a flicker of disbelief passed through her eyes.

Actually, she couldn't really believe it. From what she knew abot Rayburn, he wasn't the kind to host parties. He even came up with excuses to avoid attending events held by important figures. She seemed to think for a moment and then suckdenly said, "Let me take a look." 09:02 Thu, Dec 19

Upon hearing Rita speak, Yulia quickly handed over the invitation she was holding

When Rita received it, she paused for a moment while looking at the embossed "Invitation" on the cover, and then she calmly opened it. Just as she opened it, her eyes widened noticeably. She immediately noticed that the font of the invitation was actually handwritten by Rayburn.

Rita was very familiar with this handwriting. After all these years, she could never forget Rayburn's beautiful writing. Each stroke unmistakably belonged to him.

She now finally believed it, and the disbelief in her eyes completely disappeared.

She wondered. What on earth could be so important to make Rayburn host a party, especially at the Hotel Ballroom in Betrico, Clusia, a place reserved for emperors and noblemen in ancient times? 'He even invited friends and family from all over. Given the Muller family's reputation the number of invitees must be

enomous

She really wanted to go back to the foot of Azure Peak to ask for answers, but her pride kept her from doing so.

A sense of unease was gradually spreading in her heart, but she couldn't quite figure out what it was. Yulia felt the same way.

On the small island of Carson, which was in the middle of the lake, an old man, a youngster, a middle-aged man, and a tiger sat under the pavilion.

The table was covered with a colorful assortment of fruits and snacks. Cherise was slowly nibbling at the food, looking quite

at case.

"Did you get it all figured out using that method?" Carson asked as he looked at the freshly dried herbs.

Cherise nodded. "The first time, I added a bit of mechanical know-how. It took about twelve hours in total, and it was exhausting, but I finally succeeded," she replied.

After hearing this, Carson smiled warmly. "You've got a knack for it. Finishing it in twelve hours is pretty impressive," he remarked.

Cherise suddenly straightened up, asking, "Oh, right, Master, that time I felt a sharp pain in my head, it was because I lifted a curse for a girl, right? It shouldn't be too harmful to me, right?" Carson picked up a handful of herbs, sniffed then, and nodded. "Yes, it's related. I've looked into this too. It's not harmful, which is just a signal that someone else realized the curse was broken. "It's just an attempt to control backlash. Clusia is a big country with countless unique arts and techniques. You'll gradually learn more," Carson explained.

Cherise listened thoughtfully and then popped a cherry tomato into her mouth, saying, "So, that person really does know I'm the one who can break the curse, right? That's getting interesting"
