The security guard nodded at her blankly.Baby Zetty opened the medicine cabinet drawer and grabbed a handful of medicinal materials. It seemed like they were still fresh.Baby Zetty sneered again and said, “It seems that even though your Poison Doctor has exhausted her talents, her ambitions are not quite dead. She still has unrealistic dreams.”The young security guard nodded blankly once more.However, for some reason, the look on the security guard’s face suddenly turned gloomy.He looked into Baby Zetty’s eyes all of a sudden, his gaze seemingly suppressing a gleam of expectations. A moment later, he drooped his head again and sighed sadly.Baby Zetty glanced at him. “Do you have something to ask me?”The young security guard looked around before whispering to her, “Are you truly Boye’s descendant?”Baby Zetty nodded.“Then have you heard of using a living person as a guiding drug?”Baby Zetty was immensely stunned.Although ancient prescriptions had mentioned using the
“Who are you?” Baby Zetty asked in surprise.All of Baby Zetty’s knowledge regarding the poison sect came from Mr. Boye’s stories. However, Mr. Boye’s understanding of the poison sect had also only been passed from what her mother told her.These sorts of stories that were passed down through generations were somewhat lacking credibility. One of the things Baby Zetty had heard was that there was a living fossil among the poison sect. It was rumored that he was more than a hundred years old and was actually Mr. Boye’s great-grandfather. His intentions were sinister, and his art of healing followed the path of evil. He was innately intelligent and was Sacred Land’s child prodigy.Baby Zetty felt that the old man in front of her was the living fossil. However, Mr. Boye had never mentioned anything about this person being an old pervert. The old man vulgarly said to Baby Zetty, “I have a way to make you young again. But you’ll have to promise me something in return.”Baby Zetty adm
Baby Zetty shrugged at him. “Then lend me your laboratory. I’ll prove it to you.”The old man thought for a while and nodded at the man with a goatee next to him. “Order the men to prepare the laboratory. Oh, and find more people to help her.”Baby Zetty saw through his scheming thoughts. He wanted to place some capable people beside her so that they could secretly learn her skills. Baby Zetty immediately refused. “I don’t need an assistant.”The old man added, “I’ll give you three months. If the experiment is a success after three months, I’ll let Sir Ares and his group go. But if the experiment fails, that'll be the day of their deaths.”Baby Zetty replied, “You have to guarantee the safety of all of them. If they’re harmed in any way on the day I leave, I’ll back out on our agreement.”The old man pondered for a while. Jay and the others were hostages anyway. They would not be able to escape his grasps. Hence, he said, “Fine.”Just like that, Baby Zetty was imprisoned by the m
“You don’t deserve to know what relationship I have with her,” said Jay coldly.A wicked sneer flashed across the old man’s eyes. “Interesting. So there are still people in this world who don’t take me seriously.”Jay sneered and said, “Who do you think you are? At best, you’re a person trapped in Sacred Land. You’re only able to see the little patch of sky above you. Hence, you believe yourself to be infallible.”Jay hated the man in front of him because he was wise and farsighted enough to see the cruelty and inhumanity on the man’s evil face. He could guess that the tragedies that had befallen Boye and Baby Zetty were all because of him.He wanted to slaughter the man in front of him, but he could not. His body was filled with poison and he was extremely weak.The old man was not resentful over it. Rather, he started smiling sinisterly and said, “You have quite the courageous spirit, but I wonder how long will that last?”Jay looked at him provocatively, his eyes defying both
Nephele commanded coldly, “Men, take him to the backyard.”Nephele had bitten her tongue off once and the ‘living fossil’ stitched it back with a dog’s tongue using his superb technique. Nephele could speak now, but her speech was somewhat unclear, which severely impacted those who were listening to her.Several of her subordinates immediately carried Jay up and dragged him out.The backyard looked extremely confined as impenetrable high walls surrounded the area. There was only a small door to communicate with the outside world. After Jay was thrown into the backyard, those men immediately left.With the small door closed, the backyard became extremely dark.Jay curled up on the ground, looking at this well-structured backyard. The high walls and the dome were made of transparent materials that even houseflies would find this place impossible to escape.Perhaps it was due to the poison in his body, but he gradually grew weaker. For the first time in his life, Jay felt helpless a
However, they clearly remembered that when Baby Zetty came here, she had been an old grandmother with gray hair and a hunched back.Just like that, both of them started believing in Baby Zetty’s medical skills.Jake painfully sought Baby Zetty for confirmation as he said, “Ms. Rozette, there was a plague a few years ago in Sacred Land. Everyone who got the plague had tons of bloody holes in their bodies, and they said that their wounds were rat bites. None of the people who got the plague survived.”When Jake said this, his eyes were filled with indignation. “But I secretly checked on the people who got the plague back then and found that their bodies all have a similar bloodied hole on the back of their heads. So I suspect that the event was not a natural disaster but something caused by humans.”When Baby Zetty heard this, her eyes were overwhelmed with sympathy. It turned out the people of Sacred Land had mistaken the Poison Old Man’s live specimen experiment as a plague.She
Baby Zetty hesitated slightly. She had always considered herself a weak little girl. Being able to help the dying and heal the injured was already the most ambitious thing she could achieve.Asking her to save the people of Sacred Land was something that Baby Zetty had the spirit to do but was lacking in power and strength.She wanted to reject Jake, but seeing his solemn expression and the determined light in his eyes that was shining so brightly akin to Venus itself, Baby Zetty could not help but nod cautiously. “I promise.”Jake grinned at her and said, “Ms. Rozette, the Poison Doctor used poison to detain your whole family. They’re now weak and unable to fight back. So for me to rescue them, I’m afraid you have to find a way to detoxify them first.”Baby Zetty anxiously walked around in circles. “But I don’t know what type of poison is in their bodies.”Jake said, “Don’t worry, I’ll help you get some of their blood.”Baby Zetty gave it a thought and was reluctant for her da
The old man shook his head. “She’s so beautiful, so beautiful that no one can bear to lay a hand on her. If I can be young again, I’ll certainly make her fall into my grasp.”The woman was smiling. “Your feelings for her are sincere, and this is considered her blessing. If she hadn’t gotten your favor, she wouldn’t be able to stay here unscathed.”The old man nodded and said, “But the agreed time will come sooner or later. She’ll leave this place soon.”The woman replied, “Then you have to find a way to keep her here.”“Do you have a way?” the old man asked her.“We can keep Sir Ares here and make him our hostage. I heard that Rozette is a filial daughter, so she must be reluctant to abandon her father here and leave on her own.”“One can’t imprison Sir Ares that long.” The old man sighed regretfully and said, “There are too many capable people around him who are ready to come and rescue him. As long as he’s here, I’m unable to sleep well.”“Then why don’t we just….” The woman m
“Madam Angeline, do you have any last words?” The man showed Angeline mercy and gave her the chance to breathe in some air. Angeline pondered upon it for a while and said, “In the past, I only wished for my family’s peace and my children’s health. Right now, I hope that my children will be able to achieve all of their dreams. I hope that Jens will be able to revitalize our family’s business. I hope that Baby Zetty’s wish for there to be no more pain and suffering in the world comes true. I hope that Baby Robbie’s wish for there to be no more separations in families comes true as well.” The man was stunned. The gun in his hands tilted slightly. “Madam Angeline, wealthy people like you live luxurious lives that are free of worries. How would you ever understand the suffering of ordinary people like us? You didn’t mean anything you said to me just now, right?” Angeline said, “I’m about to die. Why would I lie to you? Although I’m from a wealthy family, I’m also a mother. I love
Angeline said, “Although Jens is young, Whitty isn’t at a ripe age anymore. Whitty has waited for Jens for so many years. She should get something in return.” Sir Ares remained silent. However, there was still an unpleasant expression on his face.Upon catching sight of the expression on Sir Ares’ face, Whitty immediately said, “Daddy, Mommy, Jens and I aren’t in a rush to get married. Jens has decided to get married after having a stable career.”Sir Ares seemed to calm down. Jenson stood up and told Sir Ares, “Daddy, I’d like to marry Whitty.” Sir Ares cast a sideway glance at him and asked, “What’s the reason behind your decision to do so?” Jenson said, “I love her.” Sir Ares’ lips upturned slightly. Not only did Jens’ personality resemble that of his, but his outlook on love was similar to his as well.Upon recalling how persistent he was while pursuing Angeline when he was young, Sir Ares knew that he could not stop Jenson.The relationship between father and son w
Sir Ares stared at Angeline speechlessly. At this moment, their memorable love flashed across his mind. He had once loved someone so deeply. He could go against his parents for her as well. Sir Ares sighed and said, “You really can’t keep your children by your side once they’re all grown up.” Angeline stared at the dispirited man before her. Her heart hurt for him. She reached out to hold his hand. Sir Ares smiled at her as she warmed up his hands. He said in an understanding tone, “Angeline, you’re still the best.” Angeline smiled and said, “Of course, I’m the best. That’s because I’m the only person who will stay by your side till the very end. Gale is such an existence for Angel, and Finn is such an existence for Baby Zetty as well.” Sir Ares said, “Alright, stop teasing me. I got it.” Yes, love was above anything else in the world. That was the tradition of the Ares family. Sir Ares was madly in love with Angeline. However, when it came to others, he felt that
However, when Angeline found out about Grayson and Andy’s marriage, she insisted on holding a grand wedding for them.Angeline and Sir Ares called Andy before them. Angeline spoke up in a touched voice, “Andy, I’ve always treated you like my biological daughter. Now that you’re getting married, I’ll marry you off just like you’re my daughter.” Angeline handed a set of jewelry, a bank card, and a key to Andy. She said, “Andy, although Baby Zetty is married, we didn’t hold a grand wedding for her. I don’t know how other families marry off their daughters. Since you’re a girl, you’ll feel secure after having your own property. You’ll have your own freedom after having your own car. You’ll take the effort to dress up after having your own jewelry.” Andy cried tearfully, “Thank you, Mommy.”Angeline hugged Andy and patted her back as she said, “Don’t cry. You must come back often to visit in the future.” “Alright.” After Angeline finished speaking, Sir Ares stared and Grayson an
Whitney handed the envelope over to Andy and said, “Miss Laurel asked me to hand this to you.” Andy slowly opened the envelope under the sisters’ curious gazes. A red spider lily specimen fell out of the envelope.Tears filled Andy’s eyes when she saw it.The sisters all burst into tears. Whitney said, “I don’t know what meaning it holds for you, but I guess Laurel wants to convey something to all of you since she wanted me to hand it to you. Have you understood what she wants to tell you?”Andy cried out loud, “This is the blood oath that we made at the military intelligence division. When we swore to be sisters, Sis Daisy mentioned that although our fates were predetermined in this lifetime and we don’t get to decide how long we’ll be able to live, we can wait for the sisters in the afterlife after death. We must wait for everyone to gather before reincarnation. We can then be reincarnated as sisters in our next life.” Whitney was touched by this beautiful oath. She teared
Jenson then ordered the servants to search every nook and cranny of Tourmaline Estate and Imperial Capital. Baby Robbie seemed to have vanished into thin air. There was no sign of him anywhere.Sir Ares sighed after hearing the news. Angeline gave up after the long search. She told Jenson, “Don’t look for him. He’s all grown up now. We can’t restrain him anymore. Don’t waste more human and physical resources searching for him. Manage Tourmaline Estate well. You and Whitty will have to take responsibility for this household in the future.” Jenson stared into his mommy’s calm eyes. Although he was curious as to why his mommy, who loved her son more than her own life, could react so calmly to his disappearance, he kept that question in his heart. “Yes, mommy.” After leaving Chateau de Selene, Jenson returned to his room in an upset mood. Whitty walked into his room with a cup of hot tea and placed it in his hands gently. “Jens, you’ve been busy every day lately. You must look af
Baby Robbie nodded sternly. After Angeline’s health recovered a little, Baby Robbie paid her a visit at once. His face no longer gave out a childish air. His handsome face exuded a sharpness that resembled that of his father’s.Angeline knew that Baby Robbie would be filled with guilt for the rest of his life after this incident. She also knew that he would change his habit of fooling around and not thinking before acting. “Mommy, it’s all my fault. If I didn’t blindly believe in her, she wouldn’t have the opportunity to damage Tourmaline Estate,” Baby Robbie said. He was filled with self-guilt. Angeline said, “Baby Robbie, I know what you’re thinking. I’m having the same thoughts right now.” ”Baby Robbie was stunned. He glanced evaluatively at the weak and exhausted expression on his mommy’s face. Somehow, Baby Robbie felt upset on behalf of his mommy. It turned out that he was not the only one who did not have a good eye for people. His mommy was in the same boat as we
Jenson decided to rebuild Tourmaline Estate with the underlying theme of ‘remembrance’. Baby Robbie fell silent after looking through the design plans.“Jens, do you think that I’ve committed a huge sin?” He suddenly voiced out his thoughts. Jenson shook his head and said, “Baby Robbie, you didn’t want any of this to happen. However, you should’ve learned your lesson by now. You can’t be kind to everyone at all times.” Baby Robbie nodded and said, “I didn’t understand the meaning behind these words in the past. I get it now.” Jenson was stunned. After Baby Robbie left Jenson’s place, he paid a visit to Angel’s courtyard. Angel was now around seven years old. She was extremely tall and mentally mature. Therefore, she did not seem like a child at all. “Brother, I heard that you haven’t been in a good mood lately. I wanted to look for you since some time ago. However, look at the state that I’m in. How can I go out?” She waved her sleeves slightly. The furniture within the
Sir Ares stared at Sis Thirteen coldly. His gaze was devoid of the fatherly love that he had always shown her.“I knew that you had a hidden motive when you moved into the Ares family back then. However, I didn’t expect you to be so evil and have such a cruel heart at such a young age. Angeline’s love and adoration toward you didn’t warm your heart at all. To me, you’re not just a traitor. You don’t have a heart at all.” Sis Thirteen stared at Sir Ares in shock. Sir Ares’ scoldings seemed to help her better perceive herself. “You hurt my father. You hurt my daddy. That’s why I steeled my heart and decided to take revenge on the Ares family,” she cried out loud. Sir Ares said in a harsh tone, “Karma exists in the world. Why would I hurt him if he didn’t abduct my children? You don’t have the ability to discern right and wrong. You’re just making excuses for yourself. Do you think you’re being reasonable right now?” Sis Thirteen shook her head in devastation. “I only know that
