Captivated by the Ruler of the Underworld
Chapter 293 Call her Lela

In the middle of the night, Lela was exhausted, her arms too heavy to lift.

After a long while, she finally regained her strength, quietly slipping away from Sylvester's side and making her way to the balcony.

Sylvester's balcony was spacious, with a lounge chair outside. Lela, barefoot, pushed open the panoramic glass door and walked to the lounge chair. She stepped onto it, swayed a bit, and then curled up her legs to sit down. She picked up her phone and called Lily the spirit. The call was answered after just one second.

"Lady Phoenix? Are you okay?"

Ever since the King of Gamblers competition, Lily the spirit had more or less figured out the situation between Lela and Sylvester.

Because of Flora, Lela's identity has become even more mysterious.

But Lily didn't pry, just as Lela hadn't inquired about her own background. She knew that if Lela wanted to share, she would do so willingly.

Lela looked at the endless artificial forest in the Gomez Manor and said with a smile, "I'm fine."

"By the way, did you take care of what I asked you to do earlier?"

Hearing this, Lily the spirit felt a bit resentful. Now that Lela had brought it up, she started to complain, "Lady Phoenix, why did you stop me? Otherwise, I would have taken down the entire Stellar Entertainment to follow your sister to death." While Lily the spirit didn't have precise knowledge of Lela's family background, she deduced that Flora must be her sister based on Lela's unwavering protection.

She had also looked into it a bit. Flora's mother disappeared over a decade ago, and it was likely during the time that Lela was born.

She then looked into Flora's situation and felt heartbroken.

Stellar Entertainment and that woman Ruby were truly vicious.

Lela held her phone, looked up at the sky, and said, "I have my reasons to stop you. Now, there's an opportunity. Organize the video and send it to me."

Hearing this, Lily the spirit became interested. She was in the X Spirits' office drinking juice. She put down her juice and said, "Lady Phoenix, based on my investigation, I also found that Ruby, who exposed the photos, and Cosmo, who insulted Flora, have an unusual relationship."

Lela raised an eyebrow and said, "Go on."

Lily the spirit, mysteriously said something.

Lela sneered and said, "Alright, send it all over. Make sure it's real and effective."

At that time, Lela thought that the only ones who could expose the photos were people inside the casino. She had Ethan give her access and meticulously investigated the casino's internal surveillance from all angles, discovering that Ruby had taken the photos.

Initially, Lela had planned to exact revenge on Ruby first before gradually dealing with the others. However, the revelation about Cosmo caught her off guard.

"Interesting, very interesting!" Lela said.

"Lady Phoenix, don't you think I deserve a reward?"

Hearing this, Lela smiled and said, "Call me Lela from now on."

Lily the spirit was puzzled and said, "You..."

Lela smiled and said a hint of joyful arrogance in her voice, "I like it."

It was a name Sylvester had given her, and she liked it.

It didn't take Lily the spirit, on the other end, much thought to find that it was Sylvester who gave her the name. She touched her forehead with her red-painted nails and said, "Okay! Lela."

After ending the call, Lela tossed her phone aside and slowly reclined. Just as she was about to make contact with the lounge chair, the back of her head met something soft. She turned her head to find Sylvester standing beside her, his tall figure leaning over, his large hand supporting her head as a smile played on his lips.

Sylvester leaned down to press Lela beneath him. His ringed left hand propped up by her ear, and his right hand gently scratched Lela's high nose. He said, "It's almost dawn, and why are you still up?"
