Cordelia’s heart stopped as she wrapped an arm around Trinity’s shoulder.Zephyr followed the police officer to the first floor underground. Cordelia and Trinity followed them slowly. Their feet felt as if they were made of lead, and each step was immensely heavy.The police officer sighed and told Zephyr, “You should do it. The pregnant woman shouldn’t go in.”Zephyr nodded and turned to Cordelia. “Wait here. I’ll be out soon.”Trinity’s eyes dimmed as she stayed close behind him.They arrived at the basement going down the stairs. It was a dim and narrow space.The police officer unlocked the door, and the man lying inside was covered with a white cloth. The fluorescent light that illuminated the space was bone-chilling.Trinity stayed by the door, unable to take a step forward as if she was sucked dry of her energy.The police officer raised a hand to gesture. “Mr. Hamerton, please identify him.”Zephyr pushed himself and slowly made his way to the corpse. With shaky hands,

Fredric did not dare to make too huge of a movement and flipped the blanket open carefully for a look. His clothes were not changed, and his shirt was drenched in blood and sweat. It was unbelievably dirty already.His wound was already bandaged, but the dressing was incredibly unprofessional.He looked up at the girl and asked after some time, “You… saved me?”When the girl blinked and grinned, she looked like an angel on the church mural.“Why? Are you repaying me for saving you?”Fredric paused, still a little groggy due to his fever.He went through what happened despite his blank mind.He had come to Melorian for Trinity, only to get into a shady cab after getting off his flight. He had not been there too frequently before, so he was not familiar with the way. The car had made several turns into a quiet alley, and the driver had shown his menace, even calling an accomplice over.Then… he was stabbed. He passed out after that and was here when he opened his eyes again.“He

There was no difference in how Zephyr acted and looked in the consecutive days without Fredric’s news, but Cordelia knew the turmoil he was in. She did not know how to comfort him.The man wanted to be strong so much that he had never brought along any negative emotions to her. He was always the gentle and smiling husband before her.It was just that Cordelia’s heart ached every time she saw him smile. She could see the fatigue in his smile.Neil called Cordelia to tell her he would return to Southeast Aciatic for a holiday and visit her parents. Cordelia’s response was lukewarm and distracted.“What’s gotten into you?” Neil chuckled. “You sound listless. You don’t have prenatal depression, do you?”“Nonsense!” Cordelia then told him about everything that had transpired these few days.Neil was quiet for a moment before he answered softly, “I’ll come to Chaiseland tomorrow.”Cordelia was shocked.“For Trinity? I think you better not. She’s—”“It’s exactly because of this circu

Someone yanked up Fredric before he could open his eyes. The searing pain of his wound caused him to shout in hysterics even when he was usually gentlemanly.“Oh, sorry, sorry!” Aurelia apologized hastily. “I found a good medicine and was so happy that I forgot you’re wounded…”Fredric sucked in a cold breath. The forgotten case of his wound had happened too often these days.If he were to be asked, he’d answer that he had never accepted any bribery as a lawyer. He had always upheld justice and fought for the people. He had never done anything to have a guilty conscience!Why did the heavens send someone like this to “heal” him?Fredric chuckled wryly and could only cave in when he saw the girl’s innocent look.“I’ve never taken care of anyone,” Aurelia said softly, passing him the water and medicine. “You’re my first man!”“Pft!” Fredric spat the water he had just drank.Aurelia quickly wiped it with a towel and blinked while she did so. “Did I say it wrong? You’re the first o

Fredric was rather curious about where her income came from. Aurelia turned back to look at him vigilantly and kept the small box quietly.“Don’t worry. I won’t touch your money.” Fredric read her mind. “But can you be kind enough to help me contact my friend? I promise I’ll give you a huge sum of money—”“No way!” Aurelia cut him off.“Aurelia, please!”“Don’t even think about it. I won’t ever call the police!”Embarrassment turned into anger on her pretty face, and her fierce look made her a different person from the girl who took care of Fredric attentively.Fredric was alarmed. “I’m not calling the police. I just want to contact my friend…”“Your friend will call the police!” Aurelia cried, “If you ruin my life, I won’t let you live in peace either!”She glared at him and went out, slamming the door shut loudly behind her.Fredric heard the familiar sound of the door locking. Anxious, he wanted to get out of bed to stop her, but his physical state held him back. Despite

Trinity paused, and the cutlery in her hands fell to the plate with a clang.Would she be so anxious? She had not thought of it.She only knew that she had been restless these days, losing sleep and appetite without even changing her clothes. She had never cried so much in her entire life.All she did was clutch the lucky charm in her hand. That was what Fredric had given her, and it felt as if his warmth was still on it.He had told her that he hoped the lucky charm would bring her luck when he gave it to her, but now, she would rather use all her luck in exchange for his safety.Trinity’s thoughts were everywhere. She opened her mouth but could not utter a single word.“I…”“Okay, I know!” Neil’s grin was wide. “You’ll definitely be anxious. Who’s going to be your male lead if I go missing?”After a long time, Trinity hung her head and said, “Sorry.”Neil paused before he continued cutting the steak with a smile.“I’m not a petty person. No need to apologize to me. Besides,

Aurelia widened her eyes in horror. She stared at Neil and felt chills run down her spine.The man was dressed properly and exuded a noble air, but his gaze was sharp, and he did not look like he had kind intentions.Neil gripped her wrist and could not help tightening his hold.The pain caused Aurelia to cry. “Mister, let go please!”“You haven’t answered my question.”“What question?” Aurelia blinked. “Oh, where this jacket came from? Hah, well…”She went closer to him—her innocent smile carried a hint of sensuality, and there was a playful look.“Let go of me, and I’ll tell you!”Neil could not help relaxing his grip.The next second, however, Aurelia shoved him away and ran in the opposite direction like a fleeing bunny.‘A police officer! He must be a police officer!’Aurelia’s heart thumped.Why would he wear such a strange expression if he was not a police officer? It was just a torn jacket. Did he have to ask things like, “did you peel it off a dead man”?It was a

Aurelia’s mind blanked. She had never encountered a situation like this.She lived like a sewer rat for her first 18 years of life. She had never harmed anyone of her own will, but she had had to turn her back on certain things for profits and self-preservation—things like a regular person’s awareness.Upon seeing the stabbed Fredric, a regular person’s first reaction would be to call the police and send him to the hospital.She could not do it. She could not leave him to die but was unwilling to implicate herself because of it.Dragging Fredric back to treat his wound to prevent him from dying on the street due to blood loss was already the best she could do.Aurelia’s heart thumped as she lost her bearing. An evil thought flashed in her mind. She could very well turn around, leave, and lock the door to allow the man to fend for himself in there. When the sun set, she could then drag him out and throw him somewhere. Nobody would know.She sucked in a cold breath. She slapped her
