After settling the matter, Fade returned to his room. Melanie came over with the stack of documents and explained to Fade, "I've skimmed through some of the pages and it looks good so far. However, there's still a lot to read through and I need more time."

Fade waved his hand and took over the documents from her. He replied, "There's no need forthat. I'll sign them now."

Fade signed the document as he spoke and handed Graham one of the copies.

Fade was confident that Graham dared not to pull a fast one on him. Therefore, he did not bother reading the rest of the contents and signed the documents immediately.

After all, Fade would be able to kill Graham in one move even if the latter tried to trick him. Most of the time, it was surprisingly simple for an expert like him. He could force others to submit to his overwhelming power.

However, Graham remained in the room and did not leave after receiving the documents.

Fade could not help but frown. He asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

Graham was respectful and he nodded in response. He said, "Mr. Chen, there's indeed one more thing. I don't know if I should tell you."

"What's the matter? Tell me!" Fade replied faintly.

Graham explained, "After you left, we started cleaning up the place. However, we realized that my brother's body was gone."

"What? Yohannes' body is missing?" Fade asked in surprise.

However, he still looked doubtful. After all, whatever happened to Yohannes' body was none of his business.

Graham took out a tiny object that was about the length of a finger and handed it to Fade. He uttered, "We found this where Yohannes' body was supposed to be."

Fade took a closer look and realized that Graham was holding a small piece of domino. The domino looked exactly like the domino he saw from Skull Mob. He spotted Yohannes using it at the Martial Arts Convention of the Five Provinces too.

Back then, Yohannes confessed everything after Fade defeated him. Yohannes mentioned that he encountered a self-learner and he captured some people for the self-learner in order to improve his strength. That was how he managed to get the domino from the self-learner.

Currently, Yohannes' body disappeared after his death and the domino appeared again. However, this domino was not whole and part of it was shattered.

Fade could not help but associate this with Skull Mob.

Fade's face turned solemn and he instructed Graham, "You should send someone to investigate this immediately. You should focus on some remote forest and the characteristics would be dominoes and skeleton masks. Inform me as soon as you have any news."

"Yes!" Although Graham did not understand why Fade suddenly became so serious, he immediately nodded and agreed. He added, "I'll gather all of the Yue family and get additional help to investigate this immediately."

"Alright then, move along!" Fade waved his hand to dismiss Graham.

Following that, Fade returned to his room. Melanie asked worriedly, "Is it serious?"

Fade shook his head and replied, "It's fine. Don't worry, Melanie."

Following that, the two of them turned to look at Mabel.

Mabel no longer dared to look at Fade. She kept avoiding making eye contact with him. After all, Madam Yang and Manager Hu were already big shots to her, let alone Fade.

She could not imagine what Fade's identity was, therefore she did not know how to face Fade.

Fade smiled gently when he noticed this. He comforted, "Mabel, don't be afraid. I'm still the same person as I was when you first met me."

"You don't have to be afraid of him. His name is Fade Chen. You can call him Brother Chen if you like," Melanie added.

Mabel glanced at Fade timidly and called, "Brother Chen."

Melanie asked, "Mabel, what are you going to do now? Do you want to continue working or do you want to do something else? I can help you find a job if you want to work." Mabel replied gratefully, "Sister, thank you but I'm worried about my father's illness. I-1 want to go home to see him."

"Well, that sounds like a good idea." Melanie nodded and took out a stack of cash. She handed it to Mabel and continued, "Here, take some money and go home to visit your father." Mabel immediately waved her hands when she spotted the thick stack of red banknotes. She replied, "Sister, no, I can't take it. You've helped me a lot and I can't accept your money." Melanie insisted that Mabel should keep the money but the latter kept refusing stubbornly.

The two kept going at it for some time and Fade was unable to take it anymore. He chipped in, "Alright, Melanie, stop it. I think you should just keep your money!"

"But, Mabel's father..." Melanie was a bit worried.

Fade smiled and reassured her, "Don't worry. I'll take care of it."

Immediately, Fade went up to Mabel and knelt down to match her height. He inquired about Mabel's father's condition.

After hearing the symptoms, Fade had a rough idea about her father's sickness. He explained, "Mabel, I am a Chinese Medicine practitioner. I roughly know what's going on with your father. I will prescribe you some medicine for your father. Come tomorrow and meet me around this time in this hotel. Get the medicine from me before going back, alright?"

"Okay! Thank you, Brother Chen, thank you, Sister Melanie!" Mabel nodded quickly and thanked them gratefully.

Both parties exchanged phone numbers and Mabel left the room thankfully.

Melanie felt a little strange after seeing Mabel off. She asked Fade, "Fade, why didn't you give Mabel a prescription and let her get the medicine herself? Why do you have to give her the medicine personally? Do you have some other intentions because she's a beautiful girl?"

Fade felt like he was accused wrongly. He replied, "Melanie, you've misunderstood me. Do I look like those men to you?"

"Yes!" Melanie nodded firmly and added, "As far as I know, you have several female confidantes in Dragonville City. I remember that there's a beautiful boss named Quin, a beautiful secretary named Lily, a beautiful celebrity named Winnie and so on..."

Fade was at a loss for words. He waved his hand quickly and tried to explain, "Melanie, we, they're..."

"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore. Who made you so charming? It's normal for so many women to like you." Melanie had a rueful look on her face.

Fade explained, "I decided to make my own medicine and give it to Mabel because there's a precious Black Level herb in this prescription. Even if she had the money, I'm afraid she won't be able to get her hands on it."

"Therefore, it's better for me to give her the medicine after I finish it!"

Melanie nodded after hearing that and answered, "I see. That's a good explanation. I believe you."
