Honey : The Empire's Treasure 184 One Chance...

Mano joined Lyra in her bedroom, as she rambles on about the list of things the girls will need for school as she got dressed.

As they were both about to leave the room, Mano transferred over a large number of credits to Lyra's wristband for the girls to do their shopping.

"Mano...are you sure?" Lyra was happy to receive the money, but she knew he was planning on cutting the wives spending.

"It's for the girls, so it's fine. Oh! And don't forget to take Jonas with you, I'm sure he will need stuff as well."

"Okay." Lyra left the room with Mano following right behind her.

In the front courtyard, Mika, Jonas, and Saavi, out of her maid's uniform, stood waiting for Lyra to show up.

"Dad, do you want to come with us?" Mika asked, surprising Mano.

It's been some time since he took a shopping trip with any of his wife and children, maybe he should accept her offer.

Besides, it seems his daughter wants to spend some quality time with him before she leaves for school.

However, Mano didn't know the real reason Mika invited him out.

If dad comes along, I swindle him into buying more of the high-cla.s.s items! Mika smiled, sweetly at her father.

Right, when Mano was about to accept her invitation, a maid showed up to invite Mano to Lady Delju's residence.

Reminded about the important matter he needs to take care of today, Mano regretfully declines as he follows the maid toward Lady Delju's residence.

Mika noticed the tension in her father's shoulders, looking at her mother to find out what was going on.

"Later, on the shuttle, I will explain." Lyra led everyone out of the Amara clan and towards Capital city.

As he walked towards Delju's and Sienna's residence, Mano comm the captain of the guards to meet him there.

The maid heard Lord Mano calling from the guards, but since she didn't have a wristband, she couldn't notify Lady Delju or Sienna ahead of time.

At the Lady Delju's residence, over forty household guards had surrounded their home as per Mano's orders.

"What the h.e.l.l!? Do you guys think you're doing!" Delju was already upset with all restrains the elders put on her. To now have to deal with these guards in her yard, made Delju want to kill someone.

Picking up a rock from her gardens, Delju was about to throw at one of the guards when Mano walked in through the front gate.

"Put it down now!"

"Mano..." Surprised by his shout, the rock fell from her hands.

"These are the Amara household guards, how dare you try to harm them!"

"No...Mano, you misunderstand. They came invaded my residence and won't leave no matter how many times I politely ask!"

"Where is Sienna?" Mano didn't have time to deal with Delju dramatics.

"She in her room studying...You know she hasn't been able to keep up in her school work because of Jaelah- ah! Mano?..." Soon as he got his daughter location, he left Delju talking to herself as he bought the guards along with him to Sienna's room.

In her room, sitting at her desk, Sienna could hear her mother's voice yelling from outside, but she didn't have time to worry about what was going on as she was trying to think of the best way to sell off the stolen honey.

Looking at her calendar, Sienna knew the best time to sell off the honey would be during the harvest season. It would be harder for the authorities to track down illegal honey, due to so much of it being out on the market.

However, that would mean that she needs to keep the honey hidden for two more weeks until then.

As she was thinking about getting in contact with her usually buyers, Mano burst through her door, terrifying her.

"Dad...?" Sienna look at her father's imposing figure and stern face as he walked towards her slowly.

"Sienna, as my daughter I will give you one opportunity to tell me the truth..."

"The truth about what dad...?" Sienna was really confused about what Mano's was talking about.

"Mano!... What are you doing to Sienna?" Delju had chase after Mano when he didn't pay her any attention.

When she heard the loud noise coming from Sienna's room, she felt an awful feeling creep into her heart.

Standing in between Mano and Sienna, Delju tried to draw his attention away from their daughter.

"Man-"

"Shut your mouth right now, and go stand over there!" Pointing outside the doorway, Mano didn't let Lady Delju say another word as his power flooded the room, pus.h.i.+ng out the door.

"Sienna...Where is the honey?"

As soon as the words left his mouth, Sienna knew she was screwed.

How did he know? He never found out before, I was being so careful!

Dozen of thoughts ran through her mind, attempting to think of the best way to handle this situation.

"Dad..."

"One chance, Sienna." Mano looked his daughter dead in the eye, hoping she would confess. At least then he wouldn't be so disappointed in her.

"I don't know what you mean, dad?" Sienna thought her best bet would be to deny everything, she has always been the good daughter.

He'll believe her if she says it wasn't her, he always does. Besides, she was sure he didn't have any proof.

"...Fine. Guards! Search everywhere, leave nothing unturned!"

The forty or some guards spread throughout the residence searching for the missing honey.

Sienna was caught blinded by the guards at the residence. She thought her father was just going to question her then leave, which would give her the chance to move the honey.

Yet, this was like he didn't trust her.

What's going on? Does he actually have proof...?

Palms sweaty, Sienna sat in her chair, not moving, afraid to give anything away.

"Sir!" A soldier came back into the room carrying a sealed canister.

Sienna, recognize the canister immediately and knew she was doomed.
