Anthony remained in the lab for a long time. He only returned to the Crosby residence in the afternoon.During this time, he still hadn't noticed that two strangers had moved into Alice Manor.As soon as he stepped through into the Crosby residence, the people sitting on the living room couch all turned their gaze toward him.Margot asked, "Anthony, what were you doing at Alice Manor?"Upon hearing this, Anthony's expression changed.He looked at Margot with a curious gaze and asked, "How did you know I went to Alice Manor?"Margot laughed and said, "My friend told me about it. She didn't have a place to stay, so I let her stay over there. Then she saw you driving into the manor."Anthony was somewhat stunned to hear that. He sat down next to Lena with a frown. He figured that the lab was so hidden and had another exit, so it wasn't something that could be easily discovered by most people.There was really no need to worry.He smiled lightly and said, "I just went over to ta
Anthony didn't expect so much to happen at home while he was away.Unexpectedly, the plane hadn't exploded; instead, the windshield shattered.Royce clearly admitted to them that he had placed the explosive device on the plane. So why, in the end, did the windshield break instead?Looking at Natalie again, Anthony asked, "Still no news about Dad?"Natalie shook her head and said, "No."Anthony, feeling downcast, stood up and said, "Natalie, I'll go upstairs and check on Daniel.""Okay. You should go talk to him. As a man, he needs to take responsibility if he's married to someone.""Alright, I'll talk to him."Anthony walked upstairs and stopped before Daniel's study, then knocked on the door.He gently called out, "Daniel, it's me, Anthony."After waiting for a short while, Daniel finally opened the door.Standing before Anthony was an extremely thin Daniel with a scruffy beard and tired eyes. He looked very worn out.Anthony couldn't hold back and hugged him tightly. "It'
Hearing a noise, the person in front of the refrigerator suddenly turned around.Her eyes were glazed over, her expression was confused, and she still had a large piece of sausage in her mouth. Her appearance looked somewhat comical.She looked at Edna. Then, as if she was afraid that Edna would take her sausage, she held it tightly in her arms, scrunching up her face in a pitiful way, and said, "I'm hungry. Want to eat."Edna noticed that the girl seemed a bit strange and asked her once again, "Who are you?""Zyla. They call me Zyla."She spoke quietly before she retreated to a corner, crouched down, and quickly began nibbling on a sausage.She was devouring the food ravenously as if she hadn't eaten in ages.Edna was the kind of person who couldn't manage her own life well but couldn't bear to see others suffer.Zyla didn't seem to be dangerous, and given that the food was all unprocessed, she quickly raised her hand and said, "Don't eat that. It might upset your stomach. Giv
Edna thought, despite clearly being an adult, Zyla still behaved with the innocence of a three-year-old child.She also started laughing, feeding Zyla while asking, "Where do you live? Why are you here?""Zyla doesn't want to go home. Zyla is hungry. Let's eat something.""So why are you here?"Zyla shook her head. "I don't know. I just left that place and came straight here.""Where did you come from?" Edna asked.Zyla casually pointed in a direction.Edna wasn't sure where she was referring to. Knowing that Zyla might not be very sharp, she probably wasn't able to ask or get any useful information.They could check the surveillance cameras tomorrow to see where she came from.Zyla absolutely loved eating the noodles with eggs and meat. She finished off an entire bowl by herself.After eating and drinking to her heart's content, she suddenly hugged Edna tightly and affectionately called out to her, with her mouth still greasy."Mom, Zyla is sleepy and wants to go to sleep."
Anthony sat upright on the bed. His hands shook as he held his phone.Actually, he wasn't afraid at all of the others finding out that Zyla was still alive.He was just worried that people who knew her would see her and get startled. He was also worried about Margot, in particular. There was previously some discord between Margot and Zyla. If Margot found out that Anthony did something secretly to help Zyla, she would definitely think that he was playing favorites.But that wasn't the case at all.He wasn't biased; he just believed that Zyla didn't deserve such severe punishment.He was also using Zyla as a test subject to evaluate his medical and hypnosis skills.He just didn't realize that he actually had the ability to bring Zyla back to life.He hoped they could quickly find Zyla and take her back to the lab.He decided to wait for an appropriate moment, and then he would come and be honest with everyone.…Early the next morning at Alice Manor, Edna sat alone at the di
The man was eager to take Zyla to the lab as soon as possible. But whenever he got even a little closer to her, Zyla lost control of her emotions and would either cry or yell.She absolutely refused to leave and kept holding on tightly to Rosa.It was so distressing that even Edna and Rosa, standing nearby, found it hard to bear.Edna and Rosa looked at the man in the white coat."How about we let her stay for now?"The man in the lab coat felt helpless as well.If he were to forcefully sedate Zyla, there was a concern it might cause adverse reactions.He could only leave for now and call Anthony back for advice.…Back in Emeria, Anthony was so infuriated by the report from the man that he wanted to explode in anger.He growled, "How could you allow her to end up in an area where people live? Do you even know who lives there?"Earlier, Margot had mentioned to him that it was her friend, and he didn't ask any further questions at the time.He likely knew all of Margot's fri
"We have to resolve this matter somehow, right? His irresponsible attitude really disappoints me," Calvin said with a huff."Let's think of another way," Natalie said.She comforted Calvin by saying, "If it's really not working out, you should go there yourself and try to compensate Edna as much as possible."Calvin didn't say anything else.If Daniel really didn't want to go to Koronia, Calvin would have to step up.Daniel's antics just made him even more angry."Calvin, what were you trying to say earlier? Do you mean to say it's not that Daniel can't be with women, but that he can't be with anyone except for a certain someone, right?"Who are you referring to?"Anthony had caught on to the key point, but he still didn't know who it was.Calvin looked at Anthony and tried to gloss over it. "No one. Just go ahead and eat your food.""No, you need to explain it clearly to me. That way, we can discuss how to resolve the issue. You've also mentioned that delaying this isn't a s
"You still can't let go of her, even though she's gone and never coming back. You'll never be able to accept anyone else in your life, right?" Anthony asked.Daniel did not deny Anthony's words. He hung his head as he felt a sour sensation rising in his throat. "I'm not sure if it's because of her that I feel so put off by others, but I really can't accept anyone else.""What if she wants you to accept someone else?"Daniel felt a bit confused by what Anthony said.Anthony explained, "What I mean is, if Zyla found out you did this for her, she'd be upset, wouldn't she?"If she wants you to pursue your own happiness, would you listen to her?Daniel gave a desolate smile and said, "She's gone, so what's the point of talking about this?""Just answer me. Would you do anything for Zyla, even if it means she wants you to find your own happiness?"Daniel stayed silent.He didn't understand what Anthony was talking about. He would never again hear the girl who used to call him "Danie
