Cole turned around and left.

Angeline looked at Cole's back that was long, tall, and staunch. For some reason, it overlapped with Jay's figure as she remembered him to be.

Angeline's lifeless and dull pupils gradually gained their focus as a touch of confusion emerged from the gleaming and lucid waters.

Jaybie was gone, and Cole's mission in Imperial Capital was completed.

Cole told her that his reason for coming to Imperial Capital was to find someone who had disappeared for 40 to 50 years. Was it Aunt Chloe, perhaps? Whereas Jaybie's mother's surname... was Yorks too?

Could this be a mere coincidence, or...

Angeline suddenly leaped out of bed and bolted outside like she had gone mad.

At the door of the ward, Grayson told her, "He's gone, M s. Severe."

Angeline was stumped.

No one knew how long it took before Angeline's calm pupils, ones that looked as though an old monk was meditating, started coming back to life again.

Grayson heard Angeline's soft voice saying, "Prepare m

e a sharp knife, Grayson. The sharper the better."

Although her voice was soft, it carried a sharp edge with the intention to obliterate everything.

Grayson was dumbfounded. "Why do you need it, Ms. Severe?"

Angeline staggered to the bed, her voice strangely calm and cold. "I picked up a docile and lovable puppy the other day. After feeding it for a few days, I realized that it bites. It'll only bring disaster to keep such an unruly wild thing."

Grayson looked extremely skeptical. "Yes, Ms. Severe."

Then, Angeline washed away her despondency. She was not only eating, drinking, and sleeping, but she had also begun physical training.

She asked the doctor to prescribe energy fluids for her.

Zayne looked at this version of Angeline and could not decide if he was happy or worried.

"Say, Josephine, do you think Angeline has come out of the shadows?"

Josephine rolled her eyes at him. "It's been less than two days and you're already wanting her to come out of the shadows? Do men's love expire after 48 hours, Zayne?" Zayne looked aggrieved. "I'm talking about my sister. Why are you putting the blame on me?"

Zayne glanced at Angeline who was stuffing herself with food and felt perplexed. "Your brother did so many wicked things to hurt my sister when he was still alive. Who knows? Maybe my sister's affection for your brother has actually diminished? After all, your brother is a rare genius. He had gone through lots of trouble to prepare for this, and if this doesn't work, wouldn't his fame be wiped out in a day?"

Josephine looked at Zayne in an exceedingly speechless manner. "I'll be blunt with you, Zayne. Something is very wrong with Angeline's uncharacteristic behavior. You'd better keep an eye on her lest she does silly things."

Zayne felt emotionally exhausted. "Sigh. Why are women so hard to predict?"

There was a clap of thunder, followed by a heavy downpour.

The raging flames at Tourmaline Estate had finally extinguished after burning for two days and two nights.

The rescue team began excavating Fragrant Vessel Court's underground palace. According to Jay's instruction before he passed away, those who were still alive underground should be rescued first.

At Cole's Mount Villa, all traces of the residency were destroyed by the heavy downpour.

All Spiriters who were sent out for the mission had returned.

Cole's gaze turned obscure when he stared at their

empty hands.

"Where's the child?"

Carson replied, "Young Master, we went to Legendary Youth Academy but could not find Jenson. According to your instructions, we found a scapegoat instead."

Cole nodded. "Where's Baby Robbie?"

Carson added, "Baby Robbie is said to have mysteriously disappeared in S Country. Our men have started a search, yet we still can't locate the mysterious person who took Baby Robbie away. However, there are numerous tell-tale signs that show a high possibility that Baby Robbie has been taken away by the Monster."

Cole was extremely astonished. "Monster?"
