"Ms. Frost, Victoria has fallen!"Waldo observed Victoria's plummet, his voice strained and tremulous."Fly over and land!"Lena's complexion shifted drastically. Without a moment of hesitation or sorrow, she decisively issued a command.The helicopter, originally moving at a leisurely pace, surged like a released arrow toward Victoria's falling point. As it neared the falling area, it slowed down gradually.Lena glanced at the occupants inside the helicopter. "Everyone, except those in the cockpit, disembark and search for her!"Following her command, Lena swiftly plunged into the sea.Within moments, a dozen individuals dove into the sea to search for Victoria.Waldo, addressing Ruby, instructed, "You, stay on the helicopter. Keep a vigilant watch for any signals from Victoria in case she needs assistance …"The probability of this scenario was extremely low. Waldo then remarked, "Victoria fell from above, and we are certain to find her."If someone located her and signaled
Will closed in on Jackalyn's helicopter, initiating a mid-air battle.Initially, Jackalyn held a slight advantage, but Will's reinforcements quickly arrived.The two helicopter teams simultaneously attacked, resulting in a dramatic collision in the skies.While Jackalyn's helicopter pilot demonstrated impressive skills, Will's team proved equally formidable.Soon, Jackalyn's group found themselves falling behind.As the helicopters collided, fiery explosions erupted, instilling a sense of fear with the constant risk of imminent crashes.This was all part of Will's strategic plan.His objective was to compel Jackalyn's team to abandon their helicopters and make an emergency landing.Before Will's arrival, Sean had strategically positioned a group, including Regalia's elite team, in Yrinas.This move significantly increased the odds of success in countering Jackalyn and her accompanying forces.…The helicopter jolted violently, and inside, Jackalyn experienced another harsh t
Will gave the order and swiftly launched himself into the air, his parachute deploying on his back. The others followed suit, jumping one after another.Both teams reconvened at the forest by the cliff.Will's gaze lingered on Sebastian, who stood beside Jackalyn, for a brief moment. Sebastian surveyed the surroundings, relaxing his furrowed brows."Where's Benjamin? Did he not make it?""Is he dead?" Jackalyn blurted out, a mixture of anticipation and reluctance evident in her voice.Sevyn interrupted, "Tsk, Mr. Harper? You should worry about yourself before worrying about him. Your time's running out, fast."Will looked at Sebastian and responded, "Mr. Harper didn't join us."Sebastian's aristocratic demeanor softened, his eyebrows unfurrowing. "I'd like a private conversation with you."Sevyn rebuffed, "There's nothing worth discussing. As Mr. Harper stated, you're responsible for Mrs. Harper's death, so it's going to be an eye for an eye."You bunch of scoundrels not only
Benjamin's untreated wound had escalated into a severe infection, accompanied by a rising fever.Yves was on the brink of desperation.He knelt beside Benjamin, pleading, "Ben, let someone tend to your wounds and at least eat something. You can't continue like this. Your body won't be able to take it. Ben, Mrs. B—"Yves had intended to assure that Victoria would be fine, but the words eluded him.Three days had passed, surpassing the crucial 72-hour golden rescue window.Even if they found her, it was likely a cold, waterlogged corpse. Yet, they hadn't even found a body.Yves couldn't shake the thought of the worst possible outcome.He understood that Benjamin had likely considered the worst-case scenario but couldn't come to terms with it.Unable to offer further reassurance, Yves sat on the ground, biting his lips. This very same man had tears streaming down his face, his sobbing intensifying with each passing moment.Choked up, he embraced Benjamin and let out a heartfelt w
Wendy hung up the phone. Turning around, she saw Silas blocking Yves.Yves forcefully pushed past Silas, advancing determinedly in Wendy's direction."Why are you holding me back? Who was Wendy talking to? What's going on that you're keeping from me?"Wendy took a moment to collect herself.With thoughts of Victoria's current situation flooding in, Wendy's worry and urgency left no room for composure. Her eyes welled up instantly."The call was from Ms. Frost. She asked about me and Victoria's situation, and I …"Yves hung his head, his spirits low.After a moment, Yves looked up at Wendy with desperate eyes. "Wendy, Mrs. B … we're all upset about what happened to her, but Ben is really struggling."He never wanted any of this. If he knew Mrs. B would face problems in Yrinas, he wouldn't have come no matter what."Ben is beating himself up over it. Can you not blame him? Right now, he's not listening to anyone."As Mrs. B's junior, maybe he'll listen to you. Silas, all of you
Silas paled when he saw Wendy's attitude.He walked to Wendy's side and summoned his courage to call out tentatively, "Wendy."Wendy was beyond livid. She could only think about the fact that Victoria was injured everywhere and might remain in a coma forever.Her eyes widened as she looked at Yves who was speaking on behalf of Benjamin and Ethan. His words were like daggers to her heart.She spat, "You're right, it's none of you guys' fault. It's all Victoria's fault for having such good taste in outstanding men."Her sense of justice was too strong, and she poked her nose too much into other people's businesses. She just had to get herself involved in this matter."She shouldn't have gone back to Youngville. She wouldn't have encountered all these things if she hadn't gone back to Youngville and never met all of you!"Victoria was such an outstanding person. She was the best among us. Such a wonderful person—""Wendy!" Yves turned around and called her name in rage, covering h
Benjamin watched as Wendy left. He then stiffly turned around.Fresh blood trickled down from the corner of his lips. They landed on his dirtied and bloodied clothes.Yves came back to Benjamin after seeing Wendy out.He was planning to comfort Benjamin to encourage and cheer him up. He let out a surprised yelp when he saw Benjamin coughing blood."Mr. Harper!""Benjamin!"Ethan, Sean, and the others immediately rushed toward Benjamin.Yves was stunned.He fell onto the ground before Benjamin and cried, "Ben, please, please don't be like this. I … I'm so scared!""Take Mr. Harper away for treatment!" Will's voice was cold as he instructed."No. One. Touch—" Before Benjamin could even finish his words, he coughed out more blood. He then passed out.Even Ethan was shocked. He looked at Benjamin's pale face and shouted hoarsely, "Hurry up and save him!"Sean and a few others carried Benjamin up onto the helicopter."You looked unwell too, Ethan. Do you want to come along?" Yv
Yves was about to follow Sean, but he was stopped by Sevyn.Sevyn said, "Enough, we shouldn't join in if they're to talk business. How are you even willing to look at that poker face of Will? We can just guard Mr. Harper here!"Yves snorted angrily and said, "Stop fooling around. Don't think I don't know that you're in the same circle as Will. Whatever the case, I won't let any of you do this!"…On the other side, Will was talking to Sean."Mr. Harper is weak both physically and mentally now. You should hypnotize him and make him forget about that woman!"Sean replied, "What do you mean "that woman"? That's Mrs. Harper, show some respect!"Will was startled.He frowned before saying, "Yves is an idiot, but why are you talking nonsense just like him now? Not any woman would be a good match for Mr. Harper. She'd just be a burden to him, no matter dead or alive."You're a doctor, you'd know best about Mr. Harper's current condition. He might not even wake up if he can't forget a
