Chapter 321

When Horace faced the kidnapper, he was unable to defend himself before being knocked out.Recalling the man, Horace couldn’t hide his terror. “Alain, he’s not just a man. He’s a monster.”Alain’s expression grew serious. It was rare for anyone to scare Horace this much.“You won’t believe it, but that man… No, that monster… He doesn’t have a face,” Horace said, shaking his head. “Or rather, he has a face but no skin.”The more Horace tried to explain, the more confused he became. “Let me put it this way. His face was all bloodied, and his skin seemed to be rotting. It looked like it had been burned, but not exactly burned. Anyway, I can’t really describe what he looks like.”Eden narrowed her eyes as she listened to Horace’s description. “What did he do to you?”“Caelus saved me before he could do anything,” Horace replied, his eyes filled with fear. “He… He drank human blood right in front of me…”Eden stroked her chin thoughtfully, considering his words carefully.After a mo

The students felt a lot of pressure as they tackled the questions set by the Physics Research Institute lecturers.However, they all knew how rare it was to have Andrew teaching them personally, so none of them complained.After finishing the questions, they were led to their dorms by their teachers.“Professor Hughes's questions were so tough. I didn’t even get to the last few questions,” Joy said with a frown as she came out.“Those are just national-level questions. If they were international-level, I’d be out in the first round,” Ewan said, hanging his head low. “I thought I could finally make my family proud in this physics competition, but I guess I should start packing up now.”Jennifer turned to Eden. “Do you think it was difficult?”Eden glanced at her. “Not really.”“I think so too,” Jennifer said with a smile. “But it is quite challenging for those at the Senior level.”Eden didn’t continue the conversation and instead looked at her phone.It was a message from Alai

Daphne took the knife and grinned. “What a great idea.”She then grabbed Jasmine by the chin and said coldly, “I’m going to make sure you appear with ‘whore’ written on your face during the national stream. You’ll look fantastic with it.”“You can’t do that. I’m from the Hunt family. My dad and my grandma won’t let you get away with this,” Jasmine cried out desperately, her heart racing.“The Hunt family? Compared to mine, your family is nothing. You’re not even worthy of being my family’s household staff,” Daphne said, a cruel glint in her eyes. She raised her hand, ready to start carving on Jasmine’s face.Jasmine was held in place by Daphne’s underlings and had no choice but to close her eyes and brace for the worst.However, she felt no pain at all. She opened her eyes, stunned by what she saw.It was Eden.Eden was holding Daphne’s wrist with a stern expression. “Who do you think you are, trying to hurt my younger sister?”Eden was known for many traits, but one that stood

Ewan blinked. Did he hear that right?The chief wanted him to take on the huge, bulky bodyguards?With his build?He’d probably be flattened by them.“It’s still the mourning period for Eden, so she can’t get into a fight,” Joy whispered to Ewan. “She’s always been kind to you… Now’s the time to repay that kindness.”Ewan considered it, gritted his teeth, and charged at the bodyguards with his fists ready.He threw a punch at one of the bodyguards with all his strength.But the bodyguard just stood there, taking the hit without moving a muscle.Ewan blinked.He looked at his fist.Then at the bodyguard.When did his punches get so strong?Could he really become the boss just with his fists?Ewan threw another punch, but the bodyguard remained unmoved.Ha!Ewan laughed and attacked the other bodyguards, leaving bruises on their faces. Yet, they still didn’t budge.Daphne, seeing what was happening, felt her anger boiling. “You idiots! I told you to beat them up, not to g

The Physics Research Institute wasn’t too far from Rielton’s city center. Although it was already evening, thanks to the Taylor family’s influence, getting into the institute wasn’t difficult.The head butler of the Taylor family arrived with his squad of bodyguards.When Daphne saw him, she quickly pointed at Eden and said, “That’s her, Mr. Taylor! Capture her!”Mr. Taylor looked at Eden; she looked familiar, but he couldn’t quite place her.Since he couldn’t remember where he had seen Eden before, he asked, “Are you the one who’s been causing trouble for Ms. Daphne?”Eden ignored him and said to Ewan, “If you’re tired, take a break. There’s going to be round two.”Ewan immediately stopped, obeying Eden’s command.“Anyone who bullies Ms. Daphne will have to pay the price, no matter who they are,” Mr. Taylor said, his irritation growing as Eden continued to ignore him. “You can choose to either lose an arm or a leg.”Daphne added, “Or you could have your face scarred.”“What i

Mr. Taylor’s expression shifted instantly. No wonder Eden seemed familiar to him—she was Alain’s fiancée after all.Everyone at the Parkers' auction that night had witnessed how much Alain doted on her.If the Taylors offended the Wards, it would be hard for them to keep their standing in Rielton.After a quick moment of thought, he gave a slight bow. “My apologies, Ms. Griffith. I should have been more aware of whom I was speaking to. What happened today is a misunderstanding. I hope you can forgive us for it.“My employer will personally visit the Ward family to ask for your forgiveness.”Eden slipped her hands into her pockets, her face devoid of expression. “The Wards and I are two separate entities.”Mr. Taylor was stunned for a moment before snapping back to reality. “Understood. Then we will go to the Hunt family.”Eden said nothing more.With that, Mr. Taylor led Daphne and the others away.“What’s the meaning of this, Mr. Taylor? I called you here to help me, not to r

Alain stayed silent for a moment before a smile appeared on his face. “My personal villa, the Pear Garden.”As soon as he said that, Eden pushed him into the car. “Drive.”He reached for a thermos flask and took a sip of warm water from it. Eden turned to him and asked, “You’re done with everything?”Alain had bought the thermos flask just for Eden, keeping it in the car so that there would always be hot water when she needed it.“No,” Alain held her hand gently. “This time, it’s pretty complicated. It won’t be over so quickly.”After a brief pause, he added, “I probably won’t be able to spend time with you in the morning, but I’ll try in the evening. I’ll be in Rielton for about ten days.”“You’re leaving?” Eden asked, lowering her eyes as she put the cover back on the thermos flask.She realized she had not seen Alain this busy ever since they met.“Yes, I need to go to the Median Continent. There's something I need to take care of, but…” Alain massaged her head, sighing. “Yo

For the next few days, Eden and Alain were both occupied with their own work.Alain was busy handling the murder cases and investigating the entomancers.Eden was focused on discussing physics research with the professors at the research institute.Although Eden said she would move to Pear Garden, someone reported to the professors that a person had been leaving late at night alone. As a result, the institute increased security and prohibited anyone from entering or leaving after hours.Even though this wasn’t enough to stop Eden, she didn’t feel the need to leave either.She spent the next few days staying inside the research institute.Then, the test for the semi-finals began.This time, each of the ten continents sent a renowned physician to set the test questions, making the competition extremely difficult by international standards.After the written test, half of the students had their heads hung low.Even fewer smiled after completing the laboratory test.Once the lab

“Ms. Griffith, Mr. and Mrs. Ward are already on their way, but they refuse to let Alain go,” Caelus said, waiting at the entrance of the research institute.He knew Eden wouldn’t leave Alain to his fate.Wasting no time, Caelus opened the car door for Eden and added, “Sulien is treating the boss right now, but it’s not going well. You need to take a look.”Eden lowered her head in silence, her mood heavy.Caelus, knowing her temperament, didn’t say much. He drove in quiet understanding.After half an hour, the car pulled up in front of a grand villa—the Johnson family residence.Caelus led Eden into a living room, where they were met with the sound of shouting. “Geoffrey, your son raped my daughter! Not only do you refuse to admit it, you’re trying to pin the blame on me? Let me warn you, if you don’t give us a proper explanation, the Johnson family will do everything in its power to destroy you.“And so what if the Ward family is the most powerful of the four prominent families

Eden ignored Helena and the others, then closed the door behind her.Inside the room, Alain lay in a deep sleep, drenched in sweat. His left arm was in bandages, and he was clearly in bad shape.Sulien, uncertain of what to do, stood up quickly when he saw Eden enter. “Come take a look, Ms. Griffith,” he said.Eden walked over to Alain’s side, checked his pulse, then unbuttoned his collar. Her eyebrows furrowed instantly.Without delay, she pulled her hand back, scribbled the names of a few ingredients, and handed the prescription to Sulien. “Get the medicine ready,” she instructed.Sulien immediately passed it to Caelus and returned to the room after it had been prepared.Looking at Alain with concern, Sulien asked, “What kind of aphrodisiac is this? How is it so strong?”“A special kind. It’s not sold on the market,” Eden replied, her voice cold. Sulien shuddered instinctively.Eden lowered her eyes and gazed at Alain, feeling a strange emotion stir within her.Despite the d
