Master Blair's Fiery Pursuit Chapter 1397
At the hospital. Blair was seated upright on the hospital bed. The laptop on his lap was playing the live feed inside the car. He had heard every single word of the conversation that went on inside the car. As it turned out, he was right to suspect there was something off with Mable returning to Richworth ahead of time. He knew Amos had been hiding something from him based on the way Amos was fidgeting last night. Still, he did not expect it to be something so fatal. To think that they were planning to keep on hiding it from him! After wiping traces of blood seeping out the corner of his lips with the back of his hand, he picked up his phone and dialed Solomon's number. Soon, Solomon picked up and stammered into the phone, “Master… Master Blair…” His voice was trembling. “Where did Mabes go?” There was a dull, ominous ring in Blairs’ voice when he spoke. His expression was eerily calm to the point where it completely lacked emotion. If not for the tr

“In that case, drink with us,” the man offered while raising his glass. “That’s right, Mabes! You haven’t been here for so long. We thought you had forgotten about us!” Mable’s lips jerked awkwardly. She recalled the past again — when she had only just signed the divorce agreement with Blair. The next thing she did was come to Sleepless City to look for men and end up stumbling into Blair, who was here for business. All the added context made for a rather complicated situation at the time. Mable chuckled to herself. She refused to believe that Blair would ever sit still and let it happen if he found out about her coming to Sleepless City to look for men again. With that in mind, she turned to the man who tried to hit on her and remarked with a flirtatious smile, “Well, now that I am single, here I am again.” There was not a soul in Richworth who did not know about Mable and Blair’s relationship. Similarly, everyone was aware of the recent passing of X’s president,

The door of Sleepless City was flung open, and in came a dozen bodyguards dressed in black. The rowdy mood of the party was immediately suspended. Then, a man entered the venue in a wheelchair. He wore a silver mask that covered his features. The only thing visible was a pair of dark, obsidian eyes emitting a penetrating glow. He seemed to have left wherever he came from on short notice, evident by the fact that he was wearing casual clothes one would wear at home paired with common slippers. The bodyguard pushing the wheelchair was dressed in a suit and leather shoes. One could immediately tell that he was no common folk, which also went to show that the man in the wheelchair had to be someone of high status. “Who is this man? Why haven't I seen him before?” “He has to be someone from the underground. Judging by his mask, I’m guessing he’s hiding some kind of scar.” “Look, even the boss of Sleepless City is coming out to greet him. He has to be a big shot.” “Do

The man in the wheelchair locked his jaw tightly and glanced at her other wrist that was not placed on Howard’s shoulders. He then snarled, “Do you not recognize me, Mrs. Fowler?” As soon as he spoke, Mable propped an arm against her waist and declared loudly, “Don't... Don’t call me Mrs. Fowler. I am not— Hic— Mrs. Fowler.” The man in the wheelchair shot an icy glare at her. Even with the mask on, one could feel his expression turning into a deep scowl. The mention of Blair alone was enough to make Mable’s heart throb with pain. She swung herself away from Howard and staggered back a few steps before ranting out loud to nobody in particular, “Screw you! Blair, you’re such a prick. You’re the worst…” She looked around wildly while ranting and failed to recognize the familiar figure. ‘Blair, where are you? ‘Why haven't you come for me?’ Mable was starting to doubt herself at this point. The only evidence she had that Blair was alive was when she heard Amos speaking t

Inside Sleepless City.The music and dazzling lights had ceased, and the people inside gradually dispersed, leaving the surroundings quiet. Mable sat on the man's lap, one hand resting on his shoulder, the other rubbing her head."Ugh."Her head was spinning, and she was feeling nauseous."Feeling unwell?"The man wrapped an arm around her waist, pinching her chin to make her look up at him. Mable's mood had plummeted to the extreme, and the man's action reminded her of Blair; he liked to pinch her chin.Mable's nose tingled, and instinctively, she raised her hand, slapping the man's hand away. "Don't touch me."The man's hand stiffened, dangerous glints flickering in his eyes behind the mask.He suddenly tightened his arm, firmly restraining Mable, who struggled to stand up in his embrace. "Don't want me to touch you? Then who will you allow to touch you? Howard? Or some other man?"Mable's sluggish mind slowly recalled that Howard, who had been with her for a long time j

The man headed to the bathroom after putting Mable on the bed. Soon, the sound of running water filled the room. It lasted less than ten minutes. When the man emerged from the bathroom after his shower, he was casually draped in a robe with water droplets trailing down his neck.Looking at the seemingly sleeping woman on the bed, the man frowned and approached. Upon closer inspection, a gruesome scar was visible on her right calf.The man helped Mable up and reached to undo her dress. However, as soon as he touched her belt, Mable suddenly opened her eyes and grabbed his wrist, twisting it fiercely.The man quickly reacted, using his other hand to block her.Mable pushed herself up, nearly stumbling, and grabbed onto the bedpost for support, pointing shakily at the man before her. "Who are you? How dare you try to undress me. You must be out of your mind!"Though heavily intoxicated and barely able to recognize faces, Mable's subconscious still knew how to protect herself.

Mable cried in the man's arms for a long time until she grew weary and fell into a fitful sleep.The man looked at the tear-streaked face of the sleeping woman in his arms. Her brows furrowed even in sleep, and his eyes filled with concern.He gently lifted her and carried her to the bathroom.Before long, the sound of running water filled the bathroom.The room had no clean clothes. After the shower, the man wrapped Mable in a bathrobe and carried her back to the bedroom.Placing Mable on the bed, the man took out his phone and made a call."Send over a set of clean women's clothing."The person on the other end of the line acknowledged and hung up.Sitting on the edge of the bed, the man lifted the strands of hair around Mable's temples with his fingers, his deep black eyes full of love beneath his mask."Mabes, I'm sorry."He leaned down, gently kissing her lips. "Just wait a little longer, okay?"The next day.Mable woke up to bright daylight streaming in from outside.

Mable stepped out of the bedroom and spotted a set of brand-new dress at the foot of the bed. She picked it up, noticing it was just her size. The dress had a high collar, perfectly covering the marks on her neck.After changing into the dress, Mable walked out of the room, only then realizing that this was not a hotel but a suite above Sleepless City.She immediately summoned the manager of Sleepless City and inquired who had brought her up last night.The boss of Sleepless City looked embarrassed and awkwardly replied, "Mrs. Fowler, I wasn't here last night, so I'm not sure what happened."Mable pressed on. "Then pull up the surveillance footage!"The boss’ expression turned even more awkward. "Mrs. Fowler, it's quite unfortunate. Sleepless City is undergoing a major inspection, preparing to install a new batch of surveillance cameras. The old ones have been removed but not yet replaced, so..."Mable frowned, giving Sleepless City boss a cold stare. "So, you're telling me tha

“Arthur proposed to Tracey?!”In the afternoon, Tracey posted several photos of her and Arthur in a hot air balloon. In one of the photos, she held a bouquet with a dazzling ring on her ring finger.[Yes, I do.]That was the caption.Blair hugged Mable and nodded with a smile. “Yeah, Arthur proposed to her today. Trace called to say they’ll prepare for the wedding after they return from their trip.”“That’s great!”Mable was sincerely happy for Tracey and Arthur.She asked Blair, “Do they have any ideas for the wedding? We can help them prepare in advance.”Blair said, “We can call Trace and ask.”Mable looked at the time. It was midnight in Monafett, and she did not want to disturb them by calling at this hour. She smiled and said, “I’ll call her tomorrow.”Getting two good news in a row today made Mable feel particularly good. After dinner, she could not help but want to drink some wine to celebrate.Blair had not drunk for a long time, either. Seeing her in high spirits,

Kyle stared into Zoe’s eyes. He had indeed noticed it, but he was not sure yet.However, when Zoe called him by his full name, he was completely certain.Zoe had regained her memories.From the moment she woke up, her emotions had been off. Even Monica noticed something wrong with her, so how could he not have seen it?Kyle looked at Zoe, reaching out to brush the hair by her temples. “It’s been a long time since you called me that.”Zoe had not called him since waking up, but as soon as she did, she called him Kyle instead of Ky. He knew then she must have remembered everything.Although Kyle knew that this day would come sooner or later, he did not expect her to regain her memories at this moment.He was completely unprepared and caught off guard.Zoe lowered her head. “That’s what I used to call you, but you tricked me into calling you Ky.”She remembered everything as soon as she woke up.The events that happened when she had forgotten felt like a dream, too surreal to be

Kyle named the baby Six not only because he was born at 6 pounds and 6 ounces but also because June 6th was the day they first met.He would always remember the scene when he first saw Zoe, even though their relationship started with deception, manipulation, and even revenge.Kyle caressed Zoe’s cheek and said, “Zoe, I’ve never told you this, but I fell in love with you the moment I saw you. It was love at first sight.“I want you to stay by my side forever and let me stay by your side forever. I’ll never let you go again in this lifetime.”Zoe’s eyes slowly reddened as she listened to Kyle’s heartfelt words.Indeed, she never knew he fell in love with her at first sight...They both did.Kyle gently wiped away her tears. “Zoe, I promise you. We’ll only part in death, never in life.”Zoe choked and nodded, burying her face in his chest as she cried.In her arms, Six seemed to sense his mother’s emotions and moved restlessly.Zoe quickly comforted him.“Let me.” Kyle took the

At the hospital. When Zoe woke up again, it was already the next morning.As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Kyle sitting by her bedside.Kyle noticed her waking up and quickly held her hand. “Zoe, you’re awake. How do you feel?”Zoe stared at the man in front of her and blinked, feeling shocked.When she did not answer, Kyle immediately became nervous. “What’s wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”Zoe remained silent and continued to stare at him. Her eyes gradually turned red, and her nose tingled with a strong sense of sourness.Kyle’s heart clenched at the sight. “Zoe, don’t scare me like this. Zoe...”He was getting anxious and was just about to call the doctor when she suddenly grabbed his hand. “I... I’m okay. I just had a nightmare. I’m a bit groggy after waking up.”Kyle hugged her, his warm hand gently patting her back. “It’s okay. I’ve been by your side all along.”Zoe buried her face in his shoulder, softly humming without saying anything.At that mom

“I see.”Outside the delivery room, Kyle’s family and the others were still waiting anxiously.Close to midnight, the door finally opened, and the nurse carried the baby out.“It’s a boy. Both mother and son are safe.”Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.Before long, Zoe was pushed out. Monica checked on the baby before hurriedly walking to Zoe’s side and taking her hand. “Zoe, you did so well.”“I’m okay, Mom.”Zoe was still very weak after just giving birth, and her voice was weak. Monica immediately told her husband to call the servants to brew a tonic and sent it over.Mable walked to Zoe and felt her heart ache when she saw the latter’s pale face, but she smiled and said, “Congratulations, Zoe.”Zoe smiled, no longer having the strength to speak.Blair and Solomon congratulated Kyle.Kyle nodded, not paying attention to them, and took Zoe back to the ward with the nurse.Zoe was a first-time mother, so she was extremely exhausted after giving birth an

As soon as Mable learned that Zoe was about to go into labor, she rushed to the hospital immediately. It was late at night, and Blair was worried, so he accompanied her.When the two arrived at the hospital, Zoe had already been taken into the delivery room. Kyle followed her in, but his parents waited anxiously outside.Mable looked at Monica and Floyd and asked, “Isn’t Zoe’s due date still about ten days away? Why did it suddenly come early?”Monica said, “We’re not sure, either. After dinner tonight, Zoe said her stomach was hurting. Kyle helped her upstairs to rest, but not long after, he called for someone to prepare the car to go to the hospital...”Seeing Mable stare anxiously at the delivery room, Blair held her hand and comforted her. “Don’t worry. Zoe has been healthy her whole pregnancy. There shouldn’t be any problems.”Mable nodded. “Yeah, I hope both the mother and child are safe.”Soon, Solomon and Ines also arrived.Solomon greeted Kyle’s parents and asked, “How

Without saying anything, Solomon placed his behind Ines’ head and kissed her.Ines wrapped her arms around his waist...Knock, knock!The untimely sound of knocking interrupted them.Ines jumped like a startled deer, eyes wide and cheeks red.The servant’s voice came from outside. “Sir, dinner is ready.”Solomon hugged Ines and cleared his throat. “Got it. We’ll be right there.”The servant acknowledged and left.Ines buried her head in Solomon’s chest and took a deep breath before saying, “Let’s go. Don’t want your parents to wait too long.”“Yeah.”Solomon stroked her head and looked at the drawing he had just completed. “Once it’s dry, I’ll have it framed and hang it in the bedroom, okay?”Ines asked, “In this bedroom?”Solomon nodded and kissed her forehead. “Yeah, we’ll probably come back to stay here often in the future.”Ines pursed her lips and smiled silently.“Let’s go have dinner.” Solomon led her downstairs.After having dinner at the Rowland residence, Solom

Solomon embraced Ines from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder. “I learned to draw when I was young and almost did fine arts for college.”“Why didn’t you?”Winning first prize in a national art competition indicated a high level of drawing skill.Solomon said, “Painting is just one of my many interests. I do it to pass the time when I’m bored. I’ve never thought of becoming an artist.”Ines nodded. “I see.”Solomon suddenly perked up and opened a small cabinet beside the bookshelf, taking out a canvas and some paints. “Come on, I’ll draw a portrait.”Ines was stunned. “Of me?”“Yep. Give me a moment.”Solomon led Ines to sit on the sofa, then went out to find a servant to bring him the easel.Although he had not painted in many years, he still had all the tools he used before.Before long, the servant helped him bring in the easel and other tools.After looking at the layout of the bedroom, Solomon asked Ines to sit in the soft chair by the window, where the lighting w

Ines blinked. “I was just thinking about what to bring to your house tomorrow. I can’t go empty-handed...”Solomon laughed at her words. “You don’t need to bring anything. Just seeing you will make them happy.”“That won’t do. I still need to buy something.”Although she knew that Solomon’s parents did not lack anything, she could not just go without a gift. It was still necessary to have proper etiquette.Ines was a little nervous at the thought of visiting his parents tomorrow. “Can you tell me what your parents are like?”Solomon noticed her nervousness and squeezed her hand. “Don’t worry. My mom and dad are very nice. They won’t make things difficult for you.”Ines looked at him and nodded.With him by her side, she was not that worried.She heard Solomon say that his father liked tea, so she bought a gift box from the supermarket. In addition, she also brought some nutritional supplements to bring along when they go to Solomon’s house tomorrow.After buying everything, th
