The subordinate took the slip of paper without surprise, clearly accustomed to such tasks. He lowered his head slightly and then left the room
Pete sat alone by the window, gazing at the moon above. Unbidden, a vivid and striking face appeared in his mind.
He chuckled softly and murmured into the empty air, “Felicia, oh Felicia, you’re quite intriguing. It’s just a pity… This is as far as you’ll go.
Meanwhile, In Ablil, the weather was completely different. Rain poured heavily, accompanied by raging winds, flashes of lightning, and rolling thunder.
In the Glovers family’s luxurious estate, Maurice was listening to a report from his subordinates. When he heard that Stephan had returned from the rainforest blinded, his reaction was one of glee
“Wonderful! Just wonderful! Even Mr. Russell has his bad days!”
His subordinate continued his report, “The latest news comes from Inside the Russell family. They say that Mr. Russell’s blindness was caused by poisoning. The toxins are extremely potent, and he has been unconscious for three days now, still stuck in a coma.”
“That’s even better!”
Maurice shook his leg with excitement and immediately ordered preparations for a flight to Khogend.
His subordinates were no longer surprised by such impulsiveness.
Since Maurice had once been afflicted by the twin venomous creatures, he frequently traveled to Khogend. His purpose for going each time was crystal clear.
Even though he was repeatedly turned away, never once receiving a warm welcome and always meeting with indifference, his enthusiasm remained undeterred.
The reporting subordinate cleared his throat and added, “Mr. Glovers, there’s also news about Ms. Fuller.”
Although Maurice hadn’t been in Khogend recently, he had left people to secretly protect Felicia. As a result, he was well–informed about her every move.
It was precisely this meticulous surveillance that had enabled their “chance encounter” in the rainforest.
At the mention of Felicia, Maurice’s smile faded. “Speak”
The subordinate paused, carefully choosing his words before reporting, “Ms. Fuller has hired a personal bodyguard. We’v
a moderately well–known mercenary. She’s been inseparable from Ms. Fuller recently.”
And then?” Maurice immediately pressed. “What else did you find out?”
investigated the person. She’s
Based on his understanding of Felicia, it was unlikely she hired a bodyguard merely for personal safety. There had to be another reason.
“Mr. Glovers, we discovered that before heading to the rainforest, Ms. Fuller spent significant time and effort looking into items related to bronze bells. We tried following up but found no leads, nor could we determine her intentions.
“Additionally, after returning from the rainforest, she seemed to have fallen unconscious at one point. When she was sent to the clinic, even the top senior physicians at Union Clinic were helpless.”
Hearing this, Maurice’s brows knitted tighter. He paced back and forth a couple of times before urging again, “Is the plane ready yet? Where’s the crew?” “It’s ready, Mr. Glovers. The flight path has been cleared, fuel is topped up, and the crew is in position. We can take off anytime!”
“Let’s go.”
With long strides, Maurice was the first to head out.
In the middle of the night, a private plane departed from Ablil and landed in Khogend two and a half hours later.
Felicia, unaware of the turmoil outside, had already gone to bed and remained oblivious to everything.
At dawn, she woke up, washed, and got dressed. By the time she stepped outside, Scarlet was already waiting in the open yard.
This was a temporary training area set up for their sparring sessions.
On the first day of practice, several chunks of the grass had been torn up. On the second day, two pots of rare plants gifted by Mike were destroyed in the
process.
Felicia didn’t mind the damage, but the housekeepers were distressed over the ruined plants. Before their next session, they quickly relocated all nearby potted plants to safety.
Felicia rubbed her nose and said to Scarlet, “Alright, let’s begin. This time, you attack, and I’ll defend.”
