Alex nodded and said, "Understood, I'll talk to Paige."

"Hmm."

-

After returning to the apartment, Alex pondered the situation for a while before texting Paige.

Alex: [Are you busy?]

Paige: [Not really. How can I help?]

Alex: [Azure is going to be released soon. Scott facilitated it.]

Paige was shocked upon reading the text. Overwhelmed with emotions, she found it challenging to continue texting and decided to call Alex.

Alex answered promptly, and Paige asked, "How do you know about this?"

"Caroline told me. How do you feel about this matter, Paige?" Alex replied.

"If Scott really is going to get Azure released, I won't let them off!" Paige clenched her phone tightly.

Alex remained silent before sharing details of his conversation with Lucas.

"I can offer you my support, but I'm afraid I can't fully protect you, Paige. Public opinion seems to be the only thing that can safeguard you now," Alex explained.

"I'll do the expose then! I'm not afraid of how others perceive me a

    Caroline was stunned. 'Yes, Kenny is not a Cheasian. Why would he be buried here?'Feeling dejected about not being able to visit Kenny's grave, Caroline requested, "Please help me prepare some flowers."Elvira frowned, confused by the flower request.Marie understood the situation and explained, "In our Cheasian culture, we offer flowers for the deceased.""This is really pointless!" Elvira complained in Spanish.Although Caroline didn't understand Spanish, she could hear the contempt in Elvira's tone.Caroline added, "There's something else.""Can't you just say everything all at once?" Elvira impatiently asked.Caroline requested, "Tell Scott that I'm returning to my company. Please return my phone to me."Elvira stared at Caroline for a moment before leaving to talk to Scott.While Elvira was calling Scott, the sound of a car engine was heard from the yard.Elvira ended the call upon seeing Scott's car and headed outside.

    Josie: [Don't worry about the company. We're proceeding according to the plan. We'll wait for you to personally review the quarterly report when you're back.]Josie: [We're very sorry for Mr. Hayes' passing.]Josie sent a photo, and Caroline tapped on it. It showed all the employees placing white lilies at Kenny's office. Caroline's eyes welled up with tears upon seeing the photo. Her tears dropped on the phone screen. She wiped them away and replied to Josie.Caroline: [Thank you all for waiting patiently. I'll be back in a few days.]She sent the same text message to the work chat group.The employees boiled over with excitement right away.Employee A: [Are you feeling better, Ms. Shenton?

    "You're finally back, Ms. Shenton!" greeted the female receptionist as Caroline returned.Caroline replied with a smile, "Yeah, I'm back."Happily, the receptionist held a card and walked toward the elevator with Caroline.While waiting for the elevator, she looked at Caroline and asked, "Are you feeling better, Ms. Shenton?""Thank you for your concern. I'm pretty much recovered." Caroline smiled elegantly."That's good."The elevator door opened, and the receptionist said, "Please go in, Ms. Shenton."Caroline nodded, entered the elevator with Elvira, and pressed a button.Josie rushed toward the elevator doors upstairs upon learning of Caroline's return. Nervously, she smoothed her clothes and watched the elevator ascend.She took a deep breath and greeted, "Ms. Shenton, welcome back…"Stupefied, Josie looked at the woman standing behind Caroline.Caroline exited the elevator, smiling at Josie.

    It was understandable that Evan wielded significant influence and connections in Angelbay.Scott couldn't swiftly take over those connections, so he had no choice but to seek assistance in maintaining his position.Caroline was disgusted. She couldn't imagine Paige's emotions upon receiving the news.-When Alex read the news in the apartment, he promptly called Paige, who quickly answered. Somberly, Alex conveyed, "Paige, Scott got engaged to Azure."After a brief pause, Paige remarked, "Well, bastards are always the perfect match for bitches."Although she sounded calm, Alex could feel her fury.Concerned, Alex asked, "Paige—""I'm fine. Give me Carol's other number, Alex," Paige interrupted.Alex promptly texted Caroline's contact number to Paige. "I've already sent it to you. Do you need me to do anything?" he asked.Paige gasped. "Get someone to keep an eye on Azure. I'm going to hang up now because I need to talk to Carol.""Okay."After ending the call, Paige swift

    They locked the door and relished typing on the keyboard.Calmly, Axel observed Tyler's enthusiasm for the laptop. "We should get ready to start, Ty."Tyler nodded. "Yeah. It's about time because we've wasted so many days."Axel powered on the laptop and gazed out the window while waiting. "I wonder how Lia's doing now. We haven't received any texts from her."Tyler halted his actions, looking at Axel helplessly. "If I'm not mistaken, she texted us last night. It's only been less than a day."Axel smiled awkwardly. "Is it? I find our days longer without her.""That's because we don't even know what we should do. We can't even go to school, can we?" Tyler explained."I don't know when this kind of life will end.""I'll text Mommy later and ask her to talk to Scott about us going to school.""Yeah, but let's not talk about this first. I'll help you remove the record of logging into the wireless network," Axel suggested."Sure, go ahead. I'll start looking up Elvira.""Great."

    Tyler took control of the phone.Tyler: [I'll ask Aunt Yuliana to send you the data implantation tool tomorrow, Mommy. Be cautious.]Caroline: [Of course. Have you both been eating well lately? Any updates on Lia?]Tyler sent Caroline the photo that Liora had forwarded to him.Upon seeing Liora's selfie, Caroline was taken aback and quickly messaged Tyler.Caroline: [Is Lia no longer in Angelbay?]Tyler was perplexed.Tyler: [No, I don't believe so. She hasn't mentioned leaving Angelbay.]Liora's picture depicted her in a room with different furnishings from Benjamin's place at the cemetery.Caroline: [Give me Lia's contact number, Ty.]She soon received Liora's contact number, realizing only then that Evan and Liora hadn't disclosed it to her.Caroline called Liora without delay. After a brief wait, Liora picked up. "Hello?"Caroline recognized the familiar, childlike voice. Suppressing her longing to see Liora, Caroline gently said, "It's me, Lia."Liora's eyes widened

    "Yeah, it's quite a drastic change, but you've endured it well," Benjamin remarked.Caroline sniffed. "I would like to know about the kids' father, Ben..."Benjamin sighed. "Everyone needs to experience the ups and downs in life, Carol. When you've weathered through it, what awaits you will be nothing but joy."I can't say much, but I can tell you that it's not a bad thing even if it's something that you can't figure out."Benjamin's words filled Caroline with indescribable emotions.She wondered what he meant by that and if she would experience less pain after letting go of Evan.Besides, she didn't understand what he meant by the things she couldn't figure out.Although Benjamin was ambiguous, Caroline still thanked him."Thank you for your advice, Ben. I heard from Lia about the school, and I'll transfer the money to her account.""Please don't, since I'm Lia's mentor. Plus, I can treat her as my granddaughter if you're okay with it since I'm childless."Caroline smiled. "

    "I'll bear the consequences I should bear," Scott said straightforwardly.Azure nodded and said nothing more.Silently, she looked up at the bright moon and grew fonder of Scott. She once felt that Alex was the man she liked the most before meeting Scott, but now she realized that it wasn't the case. The man who could move and charm her the most was the man who had pulled her out of the darkness.She recalled the day when she was released. She had been resistant when her elders told her that she had to get engaged to Scott. After all, she couldn't marry the man she had never met.But Scott's gentle and amiable demeanor changed her thoughts when she saw him conversing with the elders. It might not be a bad thing to marry that kind of man. At least, he was so much better than more than half of the rich heirs in Angelbay.-Azure returned to the villa with Scott that night. After washing up, she sat by the bed in her bathrobe and waited for Scott to exit the bathroom.Nervously, sh

    Reese winced in pain. "Alright, ma'am. I guess I can read your mind? Be gentle!"Liora relaxed her grip at last. "Right, when are we going to that place you mentioned previously?""There's no rush. Your body isn't up for constant actions now. What if you get hurt by those harmful spirits again? I've already committed myself to you out of guilt. If it happens again, I won't have anything else to offer."Liora chuckled. "You make it sound like I'm desperate for your compensation.""What's wrong with that? I'm a strong, handsome man, and everyone loves me!" said Reese, displeased.Liora was astounded by his narcissism.She took a deep breath and said, "Reese.""Hmm?"Liora said, "In truth, I'm not the best choice to be your partner because of my profession. Those spirits may bother me from time to time. I'm the complete opposite of Isaac because of my negative physique.""What happens when you have a negative physique?""Spirits will be drawn to bother me and might cause me a lo

    Reese and Isaac couldn't perceive the spirit, but they witnessed a dark mist dissipating before them.Isaac asked in astonishment, "What's happening, Lia?"Liora turned and answered, "The female spirit didn't want to move on, so her soul has been dissolved.""Dissolved? Do you mean her soul has been destroyed?" asked Reese. Liora nodded and looked around. "Uncle Kenny, please help me find the six spirits."Kenny took on the task and brought those fearful spirits in just a few minutes. Liora asked, "Do you want to choose the same option as her or come with me to Cross Chapel?""Cross Chapel!""We would have left long ago if we weren't trapped here by her threats!""She wouldn't let us go even in death. Aren't our lives worth anything?"After Fiery Red was gone, these spirits began to complain in anger.Liora was infuriated by their complaints. "How dare you criticize her! She may be responsible for your deaths, but what about you then? Do you think you bear no responsibil

    "That's easy for you to say! Those who caused my death may have become spirits, but I still want to stop them from moving on!" Fiery Red barked. Liora frowned. "So, you're implying that those six students caused your death?""Why would I kill them otherwise?"Liora said, "It's time to let them go now that they've faced your revenge. Keeping them trapped is like trapping yourself. Why bother?""Allowing them to move on is letting them off too lightly!" Fiery Red roared. Liora said, "Your obsession is too strong and is keeping you trapped here. You're constantly hurting yourself with painful memories. If you move on properly, it will be a kind of liberation from your past.""Don't preach to me! I'll make it simple for you. It's either you die or my soul gets destroyed!" Fiery Red snapped. She was about to attack Liora just as she finished her sentence. Liora was planning to call out to Isaac when a figure suddenly showed up. Kenny rushed over and blasted away Fiery Red."Y

    Tyler did not comment further upon hearing Liora's reply. In the evening, Isaac returned home from school to find Liora already there. He hurried over, brimming with excitement. "You're back, Lia! How are you feeling? Have you recovered from your injuries?"Isaac's smile stretched from ear to ear.Liora glanced at Isaac meaningfully and said, "Please do me a favor tonight, Isaac."Isaac nodded repeatedly. "Sure, are we heading to the campus?"Liora looked at Isaac in astonishment. "Are you not scared anymore?"The smile on Isaac's face faded slowly. "Spirits are scary, but I don't want to see you bullied by them again, Lia. I wanted to destroy those spirits on the same day after seeing you suffer. However, they told me to respect your decision, so I didn't do that."Liora caressed Isaac's head affectionately. "You've grown, Isaac. You know how to look out for me now."Isaac took Liora's hand and held her hand tightly in his own. "Lia, I've always cared about you. Next time you

    Reese said, "Yes, you have been in love with her for 15 years and have invested a lot of time for her. However, haven't you noticed that Lia is a very rational person? As soon as she figures things out, she can move on immediately."Chester's breathing became irregular. He took two deep breaths shakily while staring at Reese. "Yes, she is more sensitive and rational than anyone else."Reese said, "I'm going to give you another analogy. If Lia chooses to be with me, what are you going to do?""Nothing. I said before that I'd respect Lia's choice no matter what. Similarly, you don't have to worry about anything else. I won't harbor any resentment because of love," Chester replied. Reese said, "In other words, you'll continue to be friends with Lia even if we end up together, is that right?"Chester frowned. "Lia and I are friends. If we can't be together, our relationship will remain the same as before. You like Lia, but you can't stop me from being friends with her, Reese."Reese

    Reese raised his right arm and said, "My entire right arm was covered in blood at the time. I watched the removal of rotten flesh from your back with my own eyes. I couldn't sleep peacefully for days.""That's easy! Just get the doctor to prescribe sleeping pills to you. You will be able to sleep better, right?" Liora said while giggling. Reese crouched down next to the bed, smiling. "Lia, are you mad at me?"Liora was confused. "Mad at you? For what?"Reese scratched his nose. "If I didn't take you there, you wouldn't have gotten injured."Liora took a glance at him, astounded. "This has nothing to do with you taking me there. It's the ignorant spirits. I'll deal with them all once I recover!""You still want to go back there?" Reese exclaimed. "Yes, of course! Hades will be delighted if I can send the seven spirits to him," Liora said. Reese looked at the joyous smile on Liora's face, feeling guilty. "I was hoping that you'd scold me instead of talking to me so casually."

    Reese sent away Tyler and the other, surging them to get some rest while he remained seated, his gaze fixed on Liora.She slept peacefully, her chest rising and falling slowly with each breath. Meanwhile, a nurse approached. Reese noticed her and hastily stood up. "Hello, nurse."The nurse asked, "How can I help you?"Reese said, "May I inquire when Liora can be transferred out of the ICU?"The nurse said, "I'm not too sure about that. It depends on the healing of her wounds and vital signs. She has the most extensive wound that I've ever seen on a girl. She might end up with scars…"The nurse opened the door and walked inside upon saying that. Reese was overwhelmed by a sense of guilt as he thought of the debt he owed to Liora. He knew he could never fully repay it in this lifetime.-Three days later, Liora was transferred out of the ICU.After learning about the incident, Caroline and Evan rushed to the hospital. They were heartbroken to see Liora lying prone on the be

    Fear and worry flooded Reese's mind, making it impossible for him to sleep. He opened his eyes and looked at the sky through the skylight. Reese could not help Liora in her profession, so he wondered if he could help out in her safety. He thought about it before he grabbed his phone to text Tyler. Reese: [Can you tell me where Ms. Yelena is staying?]Soon, Tyler texted Yelena's hotel and room number. Reese: [Thank you, my friend.]Tyler sneered.Tyler: [I haven't settled the score with you over Lia's predicament.]Reese: [I'll accept any punishment you deem necessary. It was my mistake, and I'll take responsibility for it.]There was no reply from Tyler afterward.Reese did not send another text, so he started the car and drove to the hotel. -Half an hour later, Reese arrived at the door of Yelena's room. He pondered briefly before knocking on the door. Soon, he heard a response. "Coming."Yelena opened the door and was surprised to find Reese. "Are you the lad fro

    Liora opened her palm. The outline of the charm was vague, but she could feel its intense energy. She took a deep breath and stood up. After sensing her movement, the spirits glanced at her. Liora turned to look at them and felt the same feeling that stopped her from leaving again!Suppressing the fear, Liora braced herself to walk out of the door.The closer she got to the door, the more intense the gloomy presence became—she felt as if her soul was being crushed. "Don't be scared, Lia!""Try to walk out, Lia! They won't hurt you!""Lia! Axel, Ty, Mr. Gates, and I are waiting for you!"Αfter hearing their voices, Liora shed tears. She gnashed her teeth and continued to stride toward the door, which seemed so close yet remained out of reach. She took a deep breath, raised her hand with the charm, and attempted to walk closer. This time, the spirits all turned to look at her. They rushed forward in unison when they sensed Liora was about to touch the door. Sensing t
