Chapter 911 I Will Stick With You Come Hell Or High Water

Even when Luca's men surrounded the place outside, his life was in Jara's hands, and he knew Jara would not hesitate to kill him. There was no doubt that the man in front of him was in a crazed state. Indeed, he would die here if he infuriated Jara further. It was better not to say anything provocative. He kept his temper and attempted to offer counsel, "I am at a loss. Jara, calm down and think about it. After all, I am a member of the Marsh family, do you know the consequences if you harm me?" "I may be ordinary kin in the Marsh family. Should I die by your hand, you will still be hunted down for reputation's sake." "Then, you will be hemmed on both sides by the Icarus Association and the Marsh family. Are you sure you want to risk the lives of all in the Lost Vanguard syndicate?" Everyone in the living room fell silent at his words. Jara was unmoved. He did not let go of Luca, but he did not move forward either. Meanwhile, Kayla

Chapter 912 The Guardian Angels Are Watching Over Her

At the castle, Anderson and Clarissa completed their preparations and were waiting for Jara. As soon as Jara stepped into the main hall, Anderson asked him, "How did things go at Luca's place?" Jara threw his stuff on the table and said gravely, "Just as we thought. He isn't involved in this matter. Those men were under the immediate command of headquarters." Wearing a thin smile, Anderson added, "I received news from the men I sent out. The three spies had informed them that they were ordered to kidnap Emmeline. The order was issued by Bret, one of the elders in the Marsh family." Jara thought furiously with his brows knitted. "Bret Marsh?" "Yes, that's right." Then, Anderson placed the information that had just come in on the table and explained quietly, "Beneath the tranquil facade of the Marsh family are many complicated and competing factions." "Our investigations reveal that everyone swears allegiance to the head of the family,

Chapter 913 Just The Two Of Them In Their Own World

Ever since Emmeline was rescued, Jara kept vigil by her bedside. No one could get him to leave, not even when the doctor needed to examine Emmeline. Everyone let him be as they understood how difficult it was for him to snatch Emmeline back. They tried to persuade him, telling him that Emmeline was not in danger and needed to rest. At the same time, the hour was late and he should take a rest. However, all these fell on deaf ears. The doctor left after administering medicine to her and leaving the morning dosage behind. Finally, Jara was alone with Emmeline in the room. He was overcome by emotions as he sat by her bed and held her hand. No one knew that only now he found out how precious Emmeline was to him. These two weeks, he was beside himself with fear, although he appeared calm and composed as he planned the rescue. The fear that he failed to find Emmeline, something bad happened to her, or even worse, he only found her corpse.

Chapter 914 Letting Your Imagination Run Wild

When Emmeline finished the bowl of medicine, Jara summoned the servants to clear the empty bowl. Then, he sat down by the bed and asked Emmeline, "How much do you remember what happened over the past two weeks?" As soon as he mentioned this, Emmeline's face turned pale. Her eyes were full of bewilderment staring at Jara. Her adverse reaction pained Jara, and his mood darkened. He knew that she would not remember much of what had happened. One of the puzzling questions was why Emmeline was left alone during the time she was imprisoned. Emmeline said that she was not abused, and no one interrogated her. Apart from these, she could not recall anything else. She did not know why or what happened during those two weeks. Of course, Jara did not know either as he did not know what she went through. For the moment, Jara had not brought this up with anyone, not even Anderson or Clarissa. Then, there was another more important que

Chapter 915 Discovering Any Abnormalities

To relieve stiffness, Emmeline stretched her arms above her head as she walked. As she was doing this, she replied to Clarissa, "Quite good. I don't particularly feel anything bad." Clarissa remembered what Jara told her. "The doctor mentioned it will take a few days for the residue effects of the sleeping pills to go away." "Is that so?" Emmeline thought for a moment and smiled. "Maybe. I don't feel anything now but a little drowsy, and I just want to sleep." "That's the residue effects." There were a few minutes of silence. Suddenly, Clarissa asked, "By the way, I'd like to find out from you. Were you tortured or otherwise abused when you were kidnapped? Or were you just locked up in the room all the time?" Before the rescue, Jara had explained the situation to Anderson and Clarissa. Jara wanted to discuss the rescue with Anderson and Clarissa as they were just as experienced as he was. His discussion with them would help to strengthen his re

Chapter 916 Worried About Him

Jara reassured Emmeline, "You don't have to worry. Their target is the Lost Vanguard and not you. Likewise, when Clarissa was attacked, the target was not her but the Jordan and the Sapphire families." "Emmeline, I have been through hundreds of battles, and live to this age. I used to believe that I have no vulnerability. But now, I know that you are my vulnerability. Take good care of yourself, and don't expose yourself to any danger for my sake. All right?" Emmeline looked at him earnestly. Never before had she seen such a tender look in his eyes. She was still a little dazed, but inexplicably her heart was pounding away. She touched his gaunt cheeks weathered by hard work, and answered, "All right, I will." With her assurance, Jara smiled in relief. Something crossed Emmeline's mind, and she said, "Oh right. There's something I have to tell you." "What's that?" "Yunne is from the Icarus Association. I was trapped by the

Chapter 917 The People Behind It

There was a small wooden table beside him. The agarwood smoldering in an incense burner filled the room with a fragrance smell. After his subordinate finished his report, the man closed the folding fan and put it away. He said impassively, "So, they divided all the Icarus Association's territory?" With a respectful bow, the subordinate replied, "Yes." Then, the subordinate asked his boss with a confused look. "Boss, we don't understand. Since you helped to destroy the Icarus Association, why don't you... " The man gave a cynical smile. His handsome face seemed to radiate an unusual glow. Then, he mused, "Am I short of money?" Hearing that, the subordinate was stunned into silence. He did not know how much money his boss had, but there was no lack. Naturally, he shook his head. Again the man asked, "Is there anything else that the Marsh family needs to prove its capability and influence?" Again the subordinate

Chapter 918 No Right To Speak

Coby waved his hand to dismiss Rowan and said, "You may go." Then, Rowan bowed and left. After Rowan had left, Coby sat for a while. Then, he got up and walked to the back of the house. The manor was old and designed in a bygone era. There were many rooms in the front and a big garden at the back. The garden was full of rare flowers with several ancient trees. There was also a rock formation giving an ancient aura. There was a stone path that Coby followed to a rocky outcrop in the middle of the garden. Then, he pressed against the rocky outcrop a few times. Suddenly, the rock split apart to reveal the entrance to a tunnel. He quickly walked into the tunnel. The air inside the tunnel was cool and moist, and he could feel a cool breeze blowing against his face. He followed a winding stone path that headed downwards. After a couple of minutes, he reached the end of the tunnel into a cavern. The cavern was a big stone house packe

Chapter 919 This Is So Unfair

Aron did not know what to reply. He opened his mouth, "...." Lauren laughed out loud, "Anderson is right. Tonight you should drink more and keep quiet. When you marry this beautiful girl beside you, then you can talk." Furious, Aron downed a glass of red wine. Then, he turned to Jara and complained, "Dude, you better hurry up. You don't get married or cannot get married is up to you. These people are ganging up on us. Once you get married, I'll do the same right after you." Jara glanced at him but did not rebuke him. The atmosphere over dinner was lively and fun. This was the first time that Lauren was here. So, she was not familiar with the social customs and culture. After dinner, she clamored to go out and have fun. However, Clarissa, Aron, and the others were not keen to go out. In the end, Jameson had no choice but to accompany Lauren out. After she left, Clarissa and the others started to play cards in the living room. They played a

Chapter 920 There Is A Surprise

Jara brushed her off with a cursory, "Oh!" Then, Anderson asked her, "Aren't you playing cards? How come you're out here? Is the card game over?" His question reminded Clarissa why she was there, and she answered, "Oh, the game is over. We're a bit hungry and ready for some snacks. Do you want something to eat? We'll ask the kitchen to cook more if you want." Anderson looked at Jameson and Jara for their opinions. For some reason, Jara was sweating profusely. While he used a towel to wipe his sweat, he answered, "I'll have a bit." Then, Jameson also nodded, "I'll have some too." Everyone had replied, so Clarissa said, "All right, I'll go and tell them." Then, she turned and went inside. However, she had hardly taken a few steps before Jara called out. "Hey, wait a minute." Hearing that, she turned and asked, "What's wrong?" With a huge smile, Jara replied, "When you go inside, ask Emmeline to come out. Just say I a
