“Okay, we’ll leave tomorrow.”Blair picked up his phone and sent a message for someone to arrange a plane....Meanwhile, in Italee.Rory sat by the French window, a stack of documents scattered on the table in front of him.He squeezed the phone in his hand, his gaze looking into the distance through the window.A gust of wind blew in, scattering the documents on the table.Adam walked over and bent down to pick up the scattered files. He looked at Rory and asked, “Why didn’t you tell Mable?”Rory glanced at Adam. “Tell her what?”Adam looked at the papers in his hands, hesitant to speak.Rory sneered and tossed the phone on the table. “She loves Blair, doesn’t she? I want to see how great their love is.”“The Mullers will find out sooner or later. They won’t let...”“She chose this path, so how she goes about it is her business.” Rory stood up and looked into the distance, his expression extremely dark.Adam fell silent, furrowing his brows.“Go prepare. We’ll leave for
Blair looked at Mable and silently tightened his grip on her hand.Rory saved Mable and Spike before. With just that, Blair’s attitude toward Secret was not as ruthless as before.As long as Rory did not provoke trouble, Blair would not take the initiative against him.“Mable, if Rory goes against Blair one day, who will you help?” Rahman asked.Mable was at a loss.If possible, she hoped that such a day would never come.She said to Rahman on the phone, “If that day comes, I’ll help my husband.”Blair looked at Mable. “Mabes, if such a day really comes, you won’t need to make a choice. I won’t put you in a difficult spot.”Rahman clicked his tongue. “Remember your words, Blair. Don’t put Mable in a hard spot.”Blair said, “I know.”Rahman paused, then remembered something and said with a smirk, “I just got some insider information. Today, members of the Monafett Congress received a large shipment of smuggled weapons and drugs from Black C’s territory. They said it was a tip-
Blair nodded. “Mabes, I promise you I won’t cause trouble for Rory, but the condition is that he has to stay in his lane too.”Mable said, “I’ll talk to him when we reach the castle.”Soon, the plane took off.It would take seven to eight hours to fly from Bay Island to Fasier, and there was another flight transfer upon arriving at Fasier.By the time they reached Linders City, it was already 5:30 PM local time.The castle was in the suburbs and at least a two to three hour drive from the city. Thus, that evening, Blair and Mable decided to stay in a hotel and visit the castle the next morning.Not long after they checked into the hotel, Amos and Arthur arrived.Blair did not let them follow when Mable and he went to Bay Island. He only informed them after confirming that they were coming to Fasier.Mable was also tired after a whole day on the plane. After dinner, she went back to the bedroom to rest early.Blair called Arthur and Amos to the study.“How is Black C doing?” h
Mable looked up at Blair and saw his frown, thinking he was jealous because of Spike’s words.Thus, she comforted him with a smile, “Don’t be jealous, Darling. Spike doesn’t miss you, but I do.”Then, she made a heart shape with her hands.Blair smiled with his eyes and sat beside her.Mable looked at Spike on the screen and said, “Baby, go and practice now. Mommy and Uncle Blair are going to sleep.”Spike nodded obediently and mouthed, “Bye-bye, Mommy.”“Bye-bye, baby.”Mable hung up the phone, and Blair hugged her.“Mabes, I’ll treat Spike as my own son.”His expression was full of fatherly affection as he recalled Spike’s face.After all, Spike was his biological son.Mable looked up at him. “Thank you, Blair.”She knew very well that she would never be able to conceive again unless a miracle happened.They would never have a child of their own.At that thought, Mable felt slightly disappointed.Blair sensed her emotions and patted her back gently with his warm hand,
Mable smiled and patted Adam’s shoulder. “It’s good that you know.”Adam looked at her and hesitated, but in the end, he did not say anything.Mable walked into the study and saw Rory sitting in front of the computer, typing away on the keyboard, looking busy.He raised his head at the sound of movement, and his gaze fell heavily on Mable. “You’re here.”Mable nodded and walked over to sit across from him. “Are you busy?”“I’m almost done.”Rory closed the laptop in front of him, leaned back, and looked at Mable lazily. “It’s been three months, but you seem in better spirits than when you left.”Mable touched her face. “Maybe it’s because my mood is better, so my complexion has improved.”Rory looked at the diamond ring on Mable’s ring finger and clicked his tongue. “The wedding ring is quite shiny.”Mable’s lips twitched as she lowered her hand.Rory propped his chin up, saying slowly, “If I didn’t ask you, were you never going to tell me about your remarriage with Blair?”
Mable looked at Rory solemnly and said word by word, “I want you to promise me you won’t go against X, and you’ll never do anything to harm Blair.”“Hah!”Rory laughed, but it did not reach his eyes. “You have a lot of nerve to ask that!”Mable did not care and said seriously, “You said you’d grant me a wish. You can’t go back on your word, Rory.”Rory said, “It’s not the first time I’ve gone back on my word. What’s the big deal?”Mable almost exploded in anger. “You’re the leader of Secret. How could you...”“So what if I’m the leader of Secret? Is there a rule saying the leader of Secret has to keep his word?”“Forget it. I can’t reason with you!”Mable did not want to bicker with him anymore. The more she did, the angrier she got.She stood up, placed her hands on the table, and said seriously, “In any case, if you dare to do anything to harm Blair, I’ll never let you off!”Rory said, “In the end, he’s always more important in your heart.”Mable pursed her lips. “In my he
Blair was not interested, either. So, when he heard Mable’s words, he held her hand and prepared to leave.“Wait, wait, wait! Don’t go!”The lady stepped in front of them to stop them, staring at them with her round, dark eyes.The next moment, she seemed to see something invisible and shook violently.“What...” She instinctively took a step back, clenching her fists.Mable said, “Thank you for the offer, but we really don’t need fortune-telling.”“Wait!”When they were about to leave, the lady ran up to block their way again.Blair frowned. “Move aside.”The lady ignored him and rubbed her eyes, making sure her eyes were not mistaken.“Tsk, tsk, tsk.”She cupped her chin and glanced at their intertwined fingers, saying mysteriously, “You’re newlyweds, right? You’re quite well-matched. Unfortunately, there’s a calamity in your fate, making it difficult for your relationship to last.”Mable froze, her expression changing slightly.Blair’s expression also shifted, and he nar
In Richworth.After Mable and Blair returned to Richworth, she began to prepare to treat Spike’s throat.During this period, she had been persistently doing hand rehabilitation exercises, so the stability of her fingers holding needles had improved significantly. She could perform acupuncture on Spike now.In addition to acupuncture, some Western medicine approaches were also needed to treat Spike’s throat.With the treatment plan in place, Mable became busy.Blair also became busy after returning from Fasier.After finishing work that evening, Blair told Mable he needed to go to Monafett.“Is it about Black C?” Mable asked him at the dining table.Blair served her some soup and said, “Don’t worry. The matters regarding Black C are under control. I’m going to Monafett for more important business related to X.”For some reason, Mable felt slightly worried when she heard he had to go to Monafett. “I’ll go with you.”Blair patted her hand and comforted her. “You have to treat Sp
