With cold eyes, Simeon gritted his teeth and said, "My brother might be free. I'll contact him immediately and call him back!"

On hearing this, Liah became very agitated and she looked excitedly at Simeon and said, "Simeon, are you calling Gaerwn back? Has the competition ended over on his side?"

He nodded and replied, "I've contacted my brother. He said that the competition has already ended."

"That's great!" She jumped up excitedly with an agitated expression and adoration in her eyes.

Beside them, something flashed in Gerall and Hannes' eyes and there was awe in their expressions.

After all, Gaerwn was the eldest son of the Hubbart family, a real talented martial artist. He had reached the middle stage of the Heaven Level at thirty years old and was chosen by the martial arts department of Micovia to join the competition team.

Once he returned, Fade would die no matter how powerful he was.

The excited Liah danced with joy as she dinged on to Simeon and asked, "Simeon, how's the situation over on Gaerwn's side? The competition has ended. How did the Micovian team do?"

As she mentioned this, Simeon's face darkened and he spoke, "My brother didn't tell me the specific details on the results but from his tone, it seems like there was a surprise winner this time. The Micovian team didn't meet their expectations."

"Ah, so that happened." Liah was a little disappointed but she still smiled and spoke, "But it'll be okay if Gaerwn comes back."

While they were talking, the bodyguard of the Hoyte family, Edgrell, who was beaten unconscious by Fade, started to slowly regain consciousness.

As he listened to Simeon and the others discussions, he thought of something vague and looked in the direction in which Fade left.

Although Fade was totally gone and couldn't be seen, Edgrell vaguely felt that Fade looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.

"Could it be that I have known him before?" Edgrell frowned and pondered. He thought over it carefully but he couldn't remember having any intersections with Fade.

Just as Edgrell was preparing to think carefully, Hannes noticed the situation and rushed over.

At the same time, Fade brought Quin and Serena with him but didn't return to the Manson family home. He just found a hotel and checked into a luxurious president suite.

Fade put Quin on the bed and did a thorough check on her body again. He was relieved only when he was certain that there weren't any problems.

At night, the two of them laid on the bed. Fade embraced Quin and asked her gently, "Dear, what happened during your time in Micovia?"

When he brought this up, her face turned gloomy. She sighed softly before speaking slowly.

He listened to her story quietly beside her and quickly understood what happened.

In the beginning, Quin had come to Micovia with Jeremy and stayed in the Manson family manor. After two days, she wanted to go back but Josephine kept using all kinds of reasons to make her stay a little longer in Micovia.

In the very start, they used reasons such as taking care of Jeremy and wanting to thank Quin, but later on when she wanted to leave, Josephine used force and the Manson family members kept her passport, forcing her to stay in Micovia.

It was also because of this that Quin didn't receive

Fade's calls. Although she picked up a few times, someone was watching her.

After getting over the initial fear of being placed under house arrest by the Manson family, she calmed down and slowly observed their movements. She pretended to cooperate with their requests.

In this way, the Manson family slowly got complacent with her and let her out to meet with some other people.

Out of the people she met, Simeon was one of them.

In the process of interacting with them, she slowly understood their motives.

It turned out that long before Quin arrived, Josephine had already investigated her situation back in her home country and knew that she controlled a huge enterprise, Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc.

In addition to Quin's relationship with Jeremy, greed grew in Josephine's heart and she wanted to obtain Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc. for herself.

That was the main reason for deceiving Quin and making her come to Micovia and forcibly placing her under house arrest.

As for Gerall, Hannes, and the Hubbart family, they were partners and were aiming for Fei Enterprises

Holdings Inc.'s assets.

Originally, the dinner was their first step. They would use the donation to obtain 20% of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc.'s shares before slowly embezzling the rest of the enterprise's assets and getting total control of Fei Enterprises Holdings Ine.

However, they didn't anticipate an unexpected factor, Fade, who foiled their plans and wasted all their hard work.

After he heard the story, Fade frowned and anger crept up his face. He spoke in a deep voice, "These d*mn b*stards." Then, he remembered something and asked, "Then, is the relationship between Josephine and Jeremy real?"

Quin nodded and spoke, "When I

was under house arrest, I was suspicious about their relationship and was worried that Josephine was a fraud but after that, I slowly understood some things about her when I interacted with Simeon and the others."

"Josephine is indeed Jeremy's birth mother. It was thirty years ago and she was an accountant under my father then, in Daniel's company. She could be considered middle management."

"At that time, she and her newlywed husband had Jeremy but at that time, she suddenly disappeared and her last whereabouts was a purchase record of a ticket to Micovia."

"Her husband was very worried and went to Micovia in search of Josephine but in the end, he disappeared and no one heard from him again."

"Under such circumstances, the kind Daniel adopted Jeremy and groomed him like his own son. In the time between, he even went to Micovia to try to find Josephine and her husband but there weren't any traces of them."

It wasn't until now that Quin knew the story of what happened that year.

"At that time, Josephine abandoned her husband and child to come to Micovia because she was cheated by an international student here. He told her that he would marry her in Micovia and get her a green card."

"For the green card, she came to

het

Micovia but she never thought that the international student would abandon her when he got sick of her. After that, she started to survive through various tactics, and she slowly established herself."

"Of course, those tactics included wedding scams and frauds. To sum it up, as the years went past, Josephine survived quite well in Micovia. Her situation even got better and better with the help of her good looks."
