ВойтиEvan was Zeke's other hope?What kind of cruel joke was this?Hazel's mind collapsed in an instant.The sky falling, the earth splitting apart, oceans crashing into mountains—none of it could compare to what she was feeling now.She had never, not even for a second, imagined it would be Evan.From the very beginning, he had been completely ruled out.Her body slid uncontrollably from the bench, and she crumpled onto the floor, trembling violently.The shock slammed straight into her heart. She spat out another mouthful of blood.No wonder they had exhausted every connection, searched everywhere, and still found nothing.No matter how high the reward had been, it made no difference. They had even nearly been scammed.They had used every method they could think of—and still failed to find the donor. That was because the donor had been Evan all along.The truth behind the mysterious blood donor had finally come to light, but it was a truth they could never accept.Hazel had al
It was utterly shocking.Hazel was stunned.Hadn't Evan only given blood seven or eight times? Where did a hundred come from?She pinched herself hard. The sharp pain told her this wasn't a hallucination. She hadn't misheard.Evan had given blood one hundred times?Her legs gave out, and she collapsed onto the chair outside the transfusion room.At that moment, she couldn't tell what was real and what wasn't."I didn't hear that wrong, did I?""One hundred times? Not ten?"Roxanne and Anya were no better off.The truth slammed into them like a crushing blow, leaving them dazed—like hollow shells. Their minds simply couldn't process it.One hundred times.An ordinary person would be in life-threatening danger after more than ten consecutive transfusions—and Evan had been forced to do it a hundred times? And in such a short span of time?He'd barely had any chance to recover, yet he went through a full hundred transfusions?It was impossible.And the worst part—they had no
At Hazel's words, Roxanne and Anya fell silent. Both of them instinctively looked away.After a moment, they nodded."Yeah."They had felt it too. There was something about this hospital—something almost unnatural. No matter where they went, it all led back to Evan.Memory didn't lie.Everything a person had lived through would return, reshaped and replayed right before their eyes.Hazel felt like she was losing her mind.An indescribable emotion swelled in her chest, heavy and suffocating.Before they knew it, they had wandered into the transfusion room. All three of them wore complicated expressions.This was the place where they had forced Evan, again and again, to give blood to Zeke."Hey, did you hear? Ms. Solberg came to the hospital today.""Yeah. But what's she here for? It's not like there'll be any blood transfusion anymore…"Inside, two nurses who had arrived early were chatting casually.The three heiresses recognized her instantly. One of them was the nurse wh
The next day, Hazel arrived at the hospital with Roxanne and Anya by her side.Standing at the entrance, watching the steady stream of people coming and going, the three heiresses all felt a strange sense of distance, like stepping into a place from another lifetime.It hadn't been that long since they were last here, so why did it feel like ages?What they didn't realize was that the hospital had only ever felt familiar because every visit had been about one thing—bringing Evan in for blood transfusions.Now that Evan was gone, no longer giving blood to Zeke, they had no real reason to come back."Ms. Solberg, you're here?""Good morning, Ms. Solberg!""Ms. Solberg, it's been a while since we last saw you!"It was the morning rush, and staff members greeted them one after another as they passed.But the looks in their eyes—curious, almost as if they were staring at something strange—only made Hazel's already heavy chest tighten further.She let out a slow breath, forcing her
Ever since Evan stabilized the third stage of the Ninefold Arcane Arts, his perception of the world around him had sharpened.The feeling unsettled him.Without hesitation, he warned everyone around him to stay alert and avoid going out unless absolutely necessary.He paid special attention to Stefan and Cynthia.That day, he called them again to remind them."We know, we know…"On the other end of the line, Stefan and Cynthia exchanged uneasy looks.Stefan couldn't help himself. "If you're this worried about us, Evan, why don't you come back and visit? Better yet, stay at our place for a while."Of course they knew Silverton wasn't safe. And in their minds, it probably wouldn't be safe again anytime soon.But the danger they feared came from Cain—the man they believed wouldn't let Evan go.They had no idea that wasn't the real threat at all."And Hazel hasn't been doing well lately either," Cynthia added with a sigh. "Everything's a mess at home… Nothing but chaos."Evan p
The room was filled with corpses.Some of them had been torn apart into chunks, and blood had spread across the floor, pooling all the way to Zeke's feet.What made his scalp prickle even more was the group of people sitting nearby, calmly eating.They had to be the elites the Black Sun had sent to Silverton for this mission.Judging by their faces, they came from all over the world.Only one of them looked like she was from the east, and she was also the only woman present."Hm? You're still alive? Interesting."The woman smiled as she sized Zeke up."I know who you are. You're the organization's only 'successful experiment' who might as well have been a failure…"Only then did Zeke notice her figure. She was tall and striking, dressed in a form-fitting outfit that hugged her curves like it was painted on.Her features were sharp and defined, and the mark on the bridge of her high nose stood out like the finishing touch on a masterpiece."My codename in the organization is
"W-What is that?" Ivana lay trembling on the bed, her face drained of color. It was the first time she had ever seen something like that, and terror rippled through her whole body."That's the Death Writ."Truthfully, Ivana wasn't the only one scared. Evan's heart was pounding too. Before inheri
It was far too abnormal.The entire Silverton elite circle knew that Evan couldn't live without the three heiresses. It was also common knowledge that he was nothing more than Zeke's substitute. In that case, why would Evan agree so readily?'Ms. Solberg is clearly serious this time. Once the divo
"Excuse me, Ms. Stanton. May I see your hand?"No one could have imagined that this would be Evan's very first line to Ivana.Sylvie froze on the spot. Ivana was just as stunned, completely at a loss for words."Forgive me." Before Ivana could even respond, Evan reached out and firmly took her ha
Seeing how decisively he moved, Rosa hurriedly tried to stop him.Even though Hazel had clearly said that the divorce registration had to be signed, Rosa still wanted to give Evan a chance—to back out before the pen hit the paper. That way, everyone could still walk away happy."Will you stop drag
