Emmeline struggled subconsciously, but his grip on her arm was so firm that she couldn't move. Hence, she could only glare at him through a piece of cloth. Upon seeing this, the masked man let out a sinister laugh. However, he did not say anything else to her. He bent down, carried her on his shoulder, and walked away. Emmeline was shocked. The moment her feet left the ground, she felt a surge of fear in her chest. She had no idea who this man was or where he planned to take her. As a result, she was constantly skeptical in her mind. She was gathering her strength in secret, preparing to fight to the death. However, before she could lift her arm, she heard the other party's cold voice. "I advise you not to waste your energy. I don't want to hit women, so don't challenge my patience. Be obedient. I will let you go when we get to the place." Just as Emmeline was about to make a move, she suddenly froze. The man under her had bro
Emmeline bent down and squatted on the ground because she was uncomfortable. Two voices constantly echoed in her head. Should she leave? Or should she stay? She had no idea why she felt so strongly about this place. This feeling was unexplainable as if it had become lodged in her heart, but she subconsciously dismissed it. Beads of chilly sweat the size of beans fell from her forehead. Her lips began to turn pale, and fragments of pictures began to emerge from her mind like movies. "Brother, look! What is this?" "Baby sis, don't pick the flowers. The flowers are stunning. If you pick them, they will die." "Since they are so beautiful, isn't it normal for people to pick them? You are so old-fashioned. I don't like you anymore. Hmph!" The tiny girl snorted angrily and walked away. Seeing this, the boy, who was a little taller than her, frowned with some hesitation. Finally, he took a step forward and drew her back. "Alrigh
"Bring her back to see me," Grayclouds urged to Jason. Jason answered in a low voice, "Yes!" Outside, Emmeline was still struggling. She had no idea what was going on with this memory that had appeared out of nowhere in her mind. All she knew was that she had to escape right away. There was no other reason except that she felt a significant risk in addition to the vague and unexplainable attachment. So, she heard a voice in her head urging her to run! Hurry and ran! She gritted her teeth, stood up, and stumbled outside. However, at this point, a black shadow appeared and stood in front of her. "Miss Illington, where are you going?" She looked up and saw the man with a silver mask. "Who are you?" she questioned coldly, her face darkening. The silver-masked man smiled and said, "Why don't you stay here and figure it out if you're so curious about our identities? If you stayed, maybe you'd have it all sorted out." Em
Emmeline's expression shifted, but she suppressed it and said coldly, "I don't know what you are talking about!" However, Grayclouds was not upset. Instead, he shook his head in disappointment and remarked, "Do you really not remember anything at all? Or are you just refusing to face it?" He looked at her with a bright look in his eyes. Emmeline was irritated as a result of the memories that flashed across her head. In truth, her emotions were becoming more complicated. For a moment, she wasn't sure if he was telling the truth or not. The reason for this was that she couldn't recall anything from the years preceding her mother's visit to the Murrays. She wasn't sure if it was because she was too young to recall or for another reason, but her memories before the age of six or seven were absolutely blank in her mind. However, she grasped that as she grew older, she would forget things from her childhood. So she didn't think much about it be
Grayclouds looked up at Emmeline and said, "Don't worry. I know you value Yunne very much, so I didn't hurt her. Go back to your room and have a rest. I'll have someone bring her over later." When Emmeline heard that and confirmed that he didn't lie to her, she was relieved. She turned around and went upstairs. After she left, Jason walked in from outside. He looked in the direction in which Emmeline left and frowned unpleasantly. Clearly, he was dissatisfied with Emmeline's attitude toward Grayclouds. However, he was well aware of his own identity and knew that he was not qualified to make any comments at this time. Therefore, he only asked, "Sir, do we bring Josie here?" Grayclouds nodded. "Bring her here and warn her. If she dares to say anything..." He said with a determined look in his eyes. Jason immediately grasped the situation and nodded, saying, "Yes, I understand." After that, he turned and left. Soon, Yunne w
Emmeline stood up and hugged Yunne. "Emmeline, you're here! It turns out that you're fine. You have no idea how terrified I was!" She cradled Emmeline in her arms, trembling with fear. Emmeline held Yunne in her arms, her feelings complex and tinged with guilt. Yunne was simply an ordinary girl who had probably never been kidnapped in her life. This time, Yunne was implicated because of her. As a result, she felt extremely guilty. She gently patted Yunne on the shoulder and murmured, "It's okay. Don't be scared." Yunne whimpered and looked up from her shoulder. "Emmeline, what is going on?" she questioned as she wiped her tears. Then, Emmeline glanced at Grayclouds, who was still standing by the door with cold eyes. "It's nothing. Don't worry. You'll be fine." After noticing that she was looking at him with an unfriendly look, Grayclouds shrugged his shoulders, turned around, and left. Shortly, Emmeline signaled fo
It was as if the same body housed a different soul. This thought flashed across her mind, but she quickly dismissed it. Emmeline giggled and thought, "What's wrong with me?" How could an atheist have self-doubts? She turned around and walked outside, shaking her head. Outside, Yunne was waiting for her. "Emmeline, what are we going to do today?" she inquired hesitantly when she saw Emmeline walking out. Last night, she had already promised Yunne that she would find a way to ask them to let her go and send her out as soon as possible. Emmeline looked at her nervous look and couldn't help laughing. "Don't be like this. It's obvious that you're playing tricks. Relax and carry on as usual. I don't have a specific plan yet. We'll see how things go." Yunne, who was initially full of confidence, turned depressed when she learned Emmeline didn't have a plan. "Will... will it work?" she asked with some concern. Emmeline mur
Emmeline cast a gloomy glance at Grayclouds. She had no idea whether what he stated was true or not. After all, her mother had passed away many years ago, and her memory before the age of eight was blank. She couldn't recall anything else besides the memories she recalled when she visited here recently. After all, there was no evidence but only his claim. It was difficult for Emmeline to believe him. At the thought of this, a hint of indifference flashed in her eyes. "Well, even if what you said is true, do you think you can really keep me here by kidnapping me in this way?" she replied. Grayclouds smiled as he stared at her. "I just want us to know each other better. Of course, if you decide to leave later, I will not stop you." Emmeline sneered, "How can I trust you?" Grayclouds arched his brow. "What do you want me to do for you to trust me?" Emmeline thought for a moment before saying directly, "Let Yunne go. It's ou
