Micah explained that while the Pharaoh was deeply engrossed in his experiments, much of the power was in Seth's hands. The Pharaoh was neither senile nor unconscious. He was aware of Seth's actions and tacitly approved them. Now, the Pharaoh had stepped down, hoping Micah would reform the Yaren tribe."Alright, you should rest. I won't push you, nor will I let anyone disturb you," Micah sighed, leaving the room to give Nina some space.After he left, a helper brought an array of food, but Nina did not touch any of it. She pulled Orion close, "You must be hungry. Eat as much as you want."Orion, who had been wandering alone, had never seen such an abundance of food. Nina wanted him to enjoy a good meal since he was with her now. However, she was surprised when Orion did not eat a single bite. Instead, he picked up a set of utensils and handed them to her, his eyes full of hope.Nina patted his head, "Alright, we'll eat together."The next day, needing to go out, Nina found Mr.
Nina received no response from the man.As she moved to remove the mask forcefully, he grabbed her wrist, "Miss, you’ve got the wrong person. I...""Then why did you save me?" Nina interrupted him, her voice cold and unwavering. Her piercing gaze fixed on him, taking in his thin lips and dark eyes, exposed beneath the silver mask.Their close proximity and his familiar build convinced her further. He was Nash."Nash, do you realize how cruel you’ve been to me? They told me you were dead, yet you’ve been alive all this time and never contacted me for five years. You never told me about our child. Why are you doing this to me? What am I to you?" Her voice broke as she yelled, unable to contain the rush of emotions.The man's lips curled into a cold smile, "Miss, I’m really not the person you think I am. I’m just here on a mission."With those words, the man pushed Nina away, putting a deliberate distance between them. Although not far, to Nina, it felt like a chasm had opened up be
He felt a deep ache for Nina. These five years, she had braved countless dangers. From the moment he woke up and confirmed her location, he had been protecting her from the shadows. It was not that he did not want to see her. He could not and did not dare.Nina did not want to hear his excuses. She laughed bitterly, "Yes, if I hadn’t forced you, you would still be hiding from me. Nash, what am I to you?"Nash cared for her, leaving her all his assets, ensuring she had a safe escape route. But Nash had left her alone for so many years. If he had just given her a bit of news, she would not have suffered so much, and she would not be breaking down like this now.Nash did not respond. It was not because he did not want to, but because he could not. His throat felt constricted, making it difficult to breathe or speak. He desperately wanted to hold Nina, but he did not dare, not until she had vented her emotions."Nash, speak up! Don't play dumb here!" Nina gritted her teeth and repe
Just like that, Seth was thrown into the lab. Every bit of poison was forced into his mouth. He writhed on the ground in agony, his face pale. He was foaming at the mouth and rolling in pain beyond imagination. No one showed him any mercy, especially the Pharaoh.The Pharaoh took pleasure in Seth’s suffering, carving into him with a knife at his most vulnerable moments."If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have been separated from my Ivy. She wouldn’t resent me for being apart for so many years. And you even tried to deceive me with an imposter. If it weren’t for Micah’s suspicions, my Ivy would be dead."All the Pharaoh cared about was his daughter. He never mentioned Seth’s attempts to seize power. The long separation from his daughter had driven him to despair. He had searched tirelessly, refusing to accept her death. Even after discovering her whereabouts, his efforts to reconcile were met with cold distance.Seth had once imprisoned Ivy in a lab, using her as a test subject. Now
Human swine!She had only seen such things in books and movies, but now, the Pharaoh had actually gone to such lengths. Then again, what hadn’t the Yaren tribe done back in the day? Burning, killing, looting—nothing was beyond them.Nina took a deep breath. "I don’t want to run the tribe. I made that clear when I came here. I’m just cooperating with you…""But Nina, you can't deny the blood ties between us. Are you planning to never acknowledge us?" Micah had never demanded anything from Nina, nor had he ever spoken harshly to her. But at this moment, he needed her to understand that their bloodline was inseparable."Let’s leave the future for the future. I’m happy with my current life. Micah…""Call me brother."Micah had always believed that time would prove everything. But five years had passed, and Nina still seemed to hold a grudge.Nina hesitated, unsure of what to say. Her memories started in Birkham, where she grew up. She had no recollection of the Yaren tribe and sti
Nina's words were like a sharp dagger, piercing Nash's heart within seconds, leaving it bloodied and full of holes. He knew, however, that Nina was suffering more than he was."Nina, please, don’t get so worked up. There are things I’ll explain to you, but you need to wait a bit longer." Nash took a deep breath, trying to calm her down.But Nina did not want to hear it. "Nash, I’ve already waited five years. How much longer do you expect me to wait?"Before Nash could respond, Nina yelled again, "Are you expecting me to spend my entire life waiting for you? Where is my child?""Beep, beep beep..."The phone suddenly emitted a series of busy signals. Nash had hung up.Regardless of why Nash had hung up, Nina knew that calling back would be pointless. He would either be offline, busy, or simply not answering. But her emotions, already stirred up by Nash, surged into a wave of grief. Clutching her chest, she felt a pain so intense it left her struggling to breathe.Seeing this, Mic
Nina was struggling. Every time she tried to forgive, she could not bring herself to say it. She just could not let it go.Moreover, the things Pharaoh and Seth had done, the things she had seen, played in her mind like a movie, scene by scene. Pharaoh waved goodbye to her. He did not say anything, but his silence spoke volumes.Seeing this, Micah was silent for a moment before slowly speaking, "Nina, do you still think he's a bad person?"Most parents give everything to their children without expecting anything in return. To his children, Pharaoh was not a bad person.Differences in stance and politics could not be changed, but Nina could not accept Pharaoh's actions. Since young, she had been taught to perform good deeds, help those in need, and contribute to society without expecting anything in return. The things Pharaoh had done were too much for her to accept. Every time she thought about it, she felt suffocated and had a headache. So, she tried not to think about it."Can
Nash met the president's gaze, speaking clearly and deliberately. At this moment, Nash was not wearing his mask. Now recognized as the third prince of Salterra, the reappearance of the supposedly dead Nash from Birkham, now serving Salterra, would provoke significant backlash and criticism.But Nash did not care about that. It was clear that Nash and Nina had already reunited."I don't care what promises you've made to Nina or what plans you have. But now that you've become the third prince of S Nation, you will follow my orders obediently! If not, I'll make sure all your fears become reality!" With that, the president boarded the helicopter.He had come here to personally wake Nash up to the reality of his situation. There was no way Nash could misunderstand the message.Nash remained silent and did not move. He gripped his phone tightly, feeling his heart sink heavily.……As soon as Nina returned to Salterra, she released the photos and videos she had taken. In the video, a
