The Billionaire's Last Obsession series 167 Summary Inside her tent, Lillian experiences a sudden and intense surge of unfamiliar energy from the vein she absorbed, causing her great distress and panic. Blue and Sunny quickly come to her aid, explaining that the energy is too powerful for her to handle and cannot simply be expelled without losing its spiritual power. Blue advises her to seal herself inside her personal space and suppress the energy gradually, but warns that her body can only endure this for twelve hours before the space collapses.

Lillian is troubled by the prospect of a long and uncertain duration to control the energy, potentially lasting years depending on her mental strength. Despite this, she resolves to return within twelve hours to avoid raising suspicion or endangering her friends, especially Karina. With determination, she leaves her space and approaches Richard's tent, overhearing a tense conversation about company stocks and the involvement of other groups, which hints at growing complications.

When Lillian confronts Richard, she demands to be released, noting that she has completed her task of evaluating the mine that will soon produce ivory. Richard, suspicious of her connections, questions her about the Austine family, triggering a warm memory in Lillian. She acknowledges knowing them and warns Richard that others also have an interest in her, including powerful figures like the president of the Anxin Group, implying that using her could provoke serious repercussions.

Richard grows increasingly troubled by the potential chaos Lillian represents to his plans and the stability of Stint Corp. Just as he begins to assert control, a harsh voice interrupts, declaring that Lillian cannot be released, signaling further conflict and danger ahead.

She staggered, clutching at her heart as a wild storm of energy roared beneath her skin-an unfamiliar, chaotic force she had never encountered before. Panic flickered in her eyes as she fought to contain it, forcing herself to retreat swiftly into the sanctuary of her personal space. There was no time to hesitate; the power inside her was unruly and unpredictable. Almost instantly, Blue and Sunny came rushing to her side the moment she reappeared. "The space is overloaded with energy," Blue said urgently, his voice tight with concern.

"That vein you absorbed-it's far too massive for you to handle right now!" At Lillian's feet, the little fox whimpered nervously, circling anxiously as if sensing the turmoil within her. Swallowing hard against the pressure building in her veins, Lillian's voice was weak but determined. "What if I transfer the vein back out immediately?" "No, you can't," Blue replied firmly. "Ivory itself contains its own spiritual power. Now that the entire vein is inside your space, the energy is feeding directly into it. If you push the ore back out, it'll just be dead ivory.

The power won't leave; it'll stay here and only grow stronger." Lillian's brows furrowed in frustration. "Then what am I supposed to do?" "You'll have to seal yourself inside the space and suppress the energy bit by bit with your mind," Blue explained. "It's going to take a long time. But your body can only endure twelve hours before the space collapses on its own." Her heart sank. "How long are we talking about? Days? Months? Years?" She needed to know. If it was a long time, she had to prepare carefully-she couldn't simply disappear without warning and put Karina and the others at risk.

Blue hesitated before answering. "It depends entirely on your mental strength. It could be one or two years... maybe even five or six. The vein is enormous." Lillian took a deep, steadying breath, trying to calm the storm inside her. "Fine. I'll make sure I'm back within twelve hours." She couldn't vanish now; if Richard realized she was gone, he'd only turn his wrath on her friends once more. With that resolve, she stepped out of her space and made her way toward Richard's tent. As she reached the flap, voices drifted through the thin canvas walls.

"My affairs don't concern you," Richard snapped sharply. "What? That's impossible-how could the company's stock be forcibly taken?" came a shocked reply. "The Lewis family in Solara. And the Anxin Group... since when have they been involved?" the other voice asked, confused. "I don't know," Richard admitted reluctantly. There was a pause, then Richard's tone dropped, tense and wary. "What did you say? Lillian-how would they know she's in my hands?" Another moment of silence hung in the air. "...Fine. I'll return for now." When the conversation finally ended, Lillian stepped inside the tent.

Richard sat with his sharp features shadowed, but as soon as he saw her, his expression smoothed into something unreadable. His voice was curt, almost cold. "What do you want?" Ignoring his mood, Lillian cut straight to the chase. "I want to know when you'll let me go. You asked me to evaluate the mine-I've already done that. By tonight, that cave will start producing ivory. There's no reason to keep me here. Send someone to take me back. I still have school." Richard leaned back, scrutinizing her as she lounged casually against the sofa. Who exactly was this girl?

His voice carried a sharp edge of suspicion. "What's your connection to the Austine family?" The moment he mentioned the name, a face flashed vividly in Lillian's mind, and a quiet warmth blossomed within her chest. Richard noticed the subtle change in her expression. He didn't need her to answer; the cold curl of his lips said it all. "So you do know him. I underestimated you, Ms. Lillian. At your age, to have so many people vying for you already." "Don't flatter me," she replied coolly, her voice steady and unshaken. "If you can set your sights on me, why wouldn't others?

You want my gambling skills. Others want different things. And don't forget-I was just in Morovia with the president of the Anxin Group. That adds one more rival for you." Her words were deliberate, a clear warning. If he planned to use her, he'd have to be ready to face the backlash from all those who had marked her as their own. Richard's face darkened even further. If this spiral continued, Stint Corp would collapse within days. He hadn't imagined that a single teenage girl could unleash such turmoil. "Enough..." he began, jaw clenched tight.

But before he could say more, a harsh, raspy voice interrupted from behind him. "No. She cannot be released." Conclusion The chapter closes on a tense and fragile moment, capturing Lillian's struggle to control the overwhelming power within her while navigating the dangerous web of alliances and threats surrounding her. Her determination to protect those she cares about, even as she faces an uncertain and potentially prolonged isolation, highlights her resilience and growing strength.

Meanwhile, the shadow of outside forces looms larger, hinting at alliances and rivalries that could either aid or threaten Lillian's fragile position. As secrets about her connections and the true extent of her influence begin to surface, readers can expect a mix of psychological battles and strategic maneuvers. The coming chapter will test Lillian's resolve and mental strength like never before, leaving readers eager to see how she will confront the growing dangers surrounding her.
