At 3:00 am, a navy superbike arrived at the train station. The rider walked into a telephone booth with his helmet on.After he locked the door, he took off his helmet.The rider was revealed to be Tristan.He dialed some numbers, and the person on the other end of the call answered very quickly."Albus?" Tristan asked.At that moment, Albus was at a port.He was dressed in a flotation suit. He also had a bucket hat and a Bluetooth headset on. He was wearing a mask, which was covered by a beard.In a deep voice, he said, "It's me."Tristan said, "The police would be setting up a roadblock by Newland Bay. Don't go there.""Got it. Thanks for the tip," said Albus."Albus, I've repaid the kindness you've shown me by saying my life back then. Don't contact me again," said Tristan.Albus chuckled and said, "Don't worry. We're even now."After Tristan hung up the call, he put on his helmet again and left the telephone booth.Meanwhile, a middle-aged man walked toward Albus. He w
At 1:00 pm the following day, Erin drove to a neighborhood with Calla in the car.Calla asked, "Mrs. Frost, do you need me to go up with you?""No need. I want to talk to her alone," said Erin.After she got out of the car, she walked into an apartment building. Once she got out of the elevator, she walked to an apartment and rang the bell.Soon, the door opened, and the woman who answered the door was Saffi."You're really back! I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes," Erin said with a smile.Saffi ushered her in and said, "Let's talk inside, Erin. I'm sorry I didn't hear the doorbell earlier. I was in the kitchen.""It's fine," Erin replied.Shortly after, Saffi bought Erin a cup of tea."I'm sorry. It's only been a week since I came back. I haven't gone to the store to stock up on things. I don't have coffee at home, and I only have tea," said Saffi."I didn't come to see you for tea." Erin took out a wedding invitation from her purse."Saffi, do you h
Erin was furious, but Alan said, "Erin, there's no need for you to meddle with my relationship with Saffi. Just mind your own business!"Erin's expression darkened a little. "Alan, can you just listen to me? I've already spoken to Saffi. Do you not believe what she said about the video at all?""The truth is right there in front of our eyes! What else is there to walk about?" His tone was icy."Alan! How could you be so careless? Did you have the video analyzed? Besides, why would Saffi set your sister up for no reason? You can't accuse Saffi of things she didn't do just because of what your sister said! She's very innocent! How could you bring yourself to hurt her?" Erin barked.After Erin said that, Alan bellowed, "Erin! I've already told you to stay out of our business! Don't call me again! I don't want to see that woman again!"Erin was utterly confused as she held the phone after Alan hung up.She turned to glance at Calla. "Calla, do you think Alan ate something wrong? He h
Both Chandler and Erin turned around to look at Alan.At that moment, Alan's tear-stained face looked pale. The pain deep in his gaze was heartbreaking."Alan, since you still love and care for her, why did you break up with her?" asked Erin.Her blunt question made Alan hang his head.He slowly took his seat, avoided her gaze, and continued to lie. "What do you mean I still love her? I don't. I just don't want her to take the risk and die because of me. I don't want to be blamed for it.""Alan, when are you going to stop lying to us? What exactly are you facing? If you're in a bind, we can all resolve it together," said Chandler.His words made Alan feel incredibly conflicted.In the end, he said with great helplessness, "All of you can't help me. If you could help, I would've told you about it a long time ago."The couple glanced at each other upon hearing an answer like that.Saffi's and Alan's parents were not against their relationship. Even if Irene was Alan's sister, sh
Two nights later, Chander's study was enveloped by gloom. The few in there had troubled expressions all over their faces.Erin went to the study once Enny and Eddie had fallen asleep.Hans was standing at the door of the study. "Mrs. Frost," he greeted her."Why are you standing outside? What are they doing?" Erin asked."They are discussing something important with Mr. Frost," replied Hans.Erin said, "Understood."She knocked on the door. After she got Chandler's permission to enter, she walked into the study.The moment she entered, she immediately noticed the old sheepskin map and an ancient manuscript on the coffee table."You guys have gone two nights without sleep studying these. Have you found any clues yet?" Erin asked.Kylan looked at Erin and said with a solemn expression, "We've gotten some clues."Blake had purposefully left the map and the manuscript behind for them.There were details marked on them, so the conclusion could be drawn with just a bit of thinking
"Chandler, why should I go with you just because you've agreed? I disagree! I don't want everybody to risk their lives with me again. I refuse to believe I can't take off this bracelet!" Erin exclaimed.After hearing what she said, Chandler left the room with a sullen expression.As soon as the door to the study was closed, Erin sighed and said, "And he's pissed off now.""Erin, Chandler is just worried about you," Kylan comforted her.Calix also said, "Erin, you don't have to worry about us. Have you forgotten that I once thought of taking your husband with me to go raid some tombs?"In fact, the tomb in question is this general's tomb! But I heard later that Theodore and Elliot were also looking for the same tomb. That was why I gave up on it."Calix elaborated, "After all, I was just raiding tombs for fun. I didn't want to risk my life competing with those brothers. Now that there's another bunch of people, things are bound to get even more complicated."I wanted to bring you
Two days later, Erin stood on the deck of a luxurious cruise as she enjoyed the cold breeze.Chandler draped a coat over her shoulders and said, "You're dressed so lightly. Be careful or you may catch a cold.""It's alright. I just drank some red wine and was burning up a little. That's why I'm here to get some fresh air," Erin said.He said with concern, "Please don't fall sick even before we arrive at the Hollow of Death."Erin hugged him while looking at the horizon and sighed. "Hubby, don't you think my life has been too eventful? I've had various kinds of things, big or small, happen to me. I even got to go raid a tomb …""What a good mindset you have now. You've even learned to enjoy it," Chandler remarked.Erin explained, "If I don't learn to enjoy it, I'd have to keep living in misery and be forced to accept everything, wouldn't I? In fact, a lot of my troubles can be easily solved as long as I change the way I look at the problem."Since my life is destined to be extrao
Once Erin and Paulo reached the deck, they saw that Hans had already gone to retrieve the crates with some people on a speedboat.As Erin looked at the black crates from afar, she asked, "Paulo, how many things did you bring?"He looked back at her. "Not much. They are all useful things.""Thank you for coming to help us, Paulo. But I feel it's better if you guys stayed on the cruise," said Erin."Erin, you're really treating me as an outsider if you say that." Paulo looked a little upset as he said that.Even at the risk of him getting angry, Erin still said, "Actually, it's enough for just a few of us to go."Paulo frowned a little. "So what you're saying is that I'm not wanted?""Hey, that's not what I meant," refuted Erin.Paulo said, "Erin, I just want to help you. If you make me wait here while you guys go risk your lives, you might as well just kick us out.""How could I kick you out?" Erin showed a miserable smile.Paulo said, "Then, there's no need to persuade me any
Erin chuckled lightly as she said, "Enny would have married and fallen in love with another man sooner or later. "If that man is Paulo, I would be more than willing. Enny will be very happy in her life, and I'm at ease entrusting her to Paulo. And with Paulo being so wealthy, I don't have to worry about anyone coveting Enny's status or her family's power.""You make a good point!" Jill agreed."Jill, if your wedding with Ryder happens around the same time as Enny's, I'm afraid I won't have the energy to help you," Erin said worriedly."No worries, I don't want a wedding ceremony. Ryder and I just need to register our marriage. We've been living together for ten years anyway," Jill said.Erin nodded. "Yeah, that's fine. Weddings are quite tiring anyway, whether you have one or not."After chatting for a while, Jill heard Ryder's footsteps and said quickly, "Let's talk next time. He's coming in." …At 10:00 pm that day, Erin visited Chandler's office at his company.However, h
Ryder turned around with skepticism etched across his face. "What could possibly be wrong? Look at how anxious you are."As she leaned against the doorway, Jill held her phone aloft. There was a challenging glint in her eyes. "If you can remain that calm after hearing this news, I'll play your game with you later.""Really?" Ryder raised an eyebrow, his tone filled with."Forget it if you don't trust me." She pretended to turn away.In a swift motion, Ryder closed the distance between them."I believe you. Now, tell me," Ryder said."Enny and Paulo have settled things," Jill announced with a smirk playing on her lips."Damn! Who told you?" Ryder's curiosity peaked.Jill waved her phone triumphantly. "This is exclusive insider information! Erin personally sent a WhatsApp message, see for yourself!"Ryder snatched the phone, his eyes scanning the message rapidly.The message read, "Enny was two months pregnant with Paulo's child, and the couple had visited Paulo's parents. Whil
Cyril looked at Paulo's departing figure and sighed. "Master is so good-looking. That's why Ms. Frost has been chasing him for so many years… Actually, Master and Ms. Frost really are a perfect match!"Only after Paulo's figure disappeared into the forest did Cyril turn around silently.He was suddenly startled. "Ms. Frost…""Why so guilty? I'm not some demoness who preys on monks!" Enny exclaimed.Cyril laughed. "Ms. Frost, you're really humorous…""I'm asking you, where is your master?" Enny demanded.Cyril hesitated and said, "I don't know where Master is."Enny called his bluff. "Liar!""I really don't know," insisted Cyril."Cyril, your master is going through the most difficult time of his life. As his capable assistant and disciple, you must help him!" insisted Enny.Enny's serious expression made Cyril ask curiously, "What trouble has Master encountered?""Well, he wants to be with me, but he's too embarrassed to ask. What should I do?" she asked."Does Master reall
Many years later, on the day Enny got her ID card, she drove to Skycloud Mountain overnight.There was a temple on the top of Skycloud Mountain, and she was going to see someone there.By the time she struggled to the mountaintop, it was already 6:00 am the next day.Enny was dressed in black. She wore white hiking shoes with a duck tongue hat and her hair casually tied in a ponytail.Her beautiful, bare face had been a stumbling block on her path to growth.Every year, the number of men she rejected could fill several trucks.That was just among those who had the chance to approach her, while those who didn't could only watch from afar.Enny looked straight ahead, wiping the sweat that had trickled down her cheek.She took a deep breath and walked into the small, secluded temple that was cut off from the world.She finally arrived just in time on the day the new chief abbot took office. In fact, she was there to prevent the new abbot from entering the monastic life!Driven b
Erin had planned to visit Matthew's "Thinkerin City" to buy a violin and visit him.But Matthew's shop was closed, so after waiting for half an hour with Enny, she went to another store to buy one.However, she happened to meet him on the street now.Matthew slowly pushed the wheelchair toward her.He was dressed very casually. He wore a plaid shirt with short sleeves, jeans, and branded sneakers.His simple style was a far cry from his rock star days.He looked somewhat thinner, his smile faint. "Erin, did you and Enny come to buy an instrument?""Yes, we bought Enny a violin. We actually wanted to visit your store." Erin's gaze drifted to Claire, who sat in the wheelchair.Matthew responded, "Sorry, I had to take Claire to get some medicine."Although Claire had been tragically affected by Matthew's obsessive fans years ago, she survived. However, she was left mentally incapacitated and was sometimes lucid for only a few hours.Matthew was loyal, taking it upon himself to c
Chandler's appearance wasn't anything mysterious or an extraordinary entrance.It was filled with the usual beauty and romance of a typical wedding.After reaching Erin, he knelt on one knee with a face full of happiness, opened the ring box with both hands and looked up at her.He asked, "Erin, will you marry me again?"Erin's heart was filled with joy as she asked jokingly, "If I refuse, will you force me into a wedding dress and marry you?"He replied firmly, "Yes!""Since I have no choice, I suppose I must agree," she said with a smile. Erin extended her hand for Chandler to slide the engagement ring onto her finger."You will be Mrs. Frost for the rest of your life! Don't even think about escaping!" Chandler exclaimed."Ah, I won't run. I am willing to be a happy prisoner," Erin said self-deprecatingly.Ryder rolled his eyes, his expression full of sourness.Kylan caught his expression and patted his shoulder without saying a word.As Erin put on the ring, everyone pres
Five minutes later, the doorbell rang again as Enny started doing Erin's makeup."I'll get it, Mom. You stay seated, okay?" Enny said."Fine, Mommy won't move." Erin winked at her. Seconds later, Enny shouted, "Godfather!""Enny! You look so beautiful!" The joy in the man's voice was palpable.Erin stood up and walked to the living room, knowing Sean had arrived.By then, Sean and another man had already entered.They closed the door behind them."Erin, I've brought a makeup artist for you," Sean said with a slight smile.The man beside him bowed politely to her. "Hello, Ms. Lane!""Maya, your male disguise is a total failure. You just slapped on some rough makeup without even wearing a realistic mask. You don't look like a man at all," Erin teased with a laugh.Maya couldn't help but laugh. "Mr. Frost's security measures are too strict. If I had worn a stranger's male mask, I wouldn't have been allowed in, and I would have been detained.""Why go through all the trouble o
Meanwhile, Erin had just gone to open the door of her hotel room.To her surprise, the person at the door was Roman."Rom! It's really you!" Erin exclaimed with joy. Dressed in a tailored white suit, Roman held a bouquet and joked, "Do you need to check my face to make sure I'm not wearing a mask?""Haha! I know it's you! Come in and let's talk. Thank you for the flowers!" Erin took the bouquet he offered and invited him inside.A minute later, Roman was sitting on the couch.He looked out to the underwater world from the floor-to-ceiling windows and remarked, "Enny and Eddie must really love this room.""Yes, the kids could watch it all night. Chandler specifically chose this type of room for the children," Erin explained.As Erin placed the fresh flowers in a vase, Roman inquired, "Where's Chandler?"Erin replied, "You should know what he's busy with, right?"Roman's gaze turned indecipherable, his tone probing as he asked, "You already know?"Erin laughed. "Yes. Did it d
Jill naturally denied it when she heard the question. "We didn't expose anything! Erin just happened to see us. What could we do? Pretend we don't know her? That's not realistic at all!""Did you really say nothing?" Ryder asked doubtfully.Calix was also skeptical as he questioned, "Erin is so sharp, and both of your acting skills are so poor. She must have figured it out."Tina exclaimed defensively, "We really didn't say anything! You two are so annoying! I'm dying of thirst here! Jill, hurry up and open the door. We can talk inside.""Yeah, I'm thirsty too," Jill echoed. She took out her room card, swiped it, and opened the door.The two women were about to close the door when Ryder stopped it with his hand. He asked, "What are you doing, not letting us in?""What are you coming in for? Don't you have your own room? Go away, we're going to take a nap!" Jill said grumpily."Taking a nap at this hour? Are you two pigs? The rehearsal is about to start," Ryder pointed out."W
