Calista had to leave to fetch her tools. Mr. Mysterious offered to prepare them for her, but she was more accustomed to using her own.The moment they left the manor, Yara grabbed her and whispered, "Something isn't right about this place, Calista. The housekeeper kept watching me as if I were a thief while I was in the living room downstairs. She even followed me to the washroom. Just a cursory sweep and I found at least five or more pinhole cameras around. There might even be invisible ones."The Quinn family owned a tech company. The cameras were things Yara was familiar with."If this is a legitimate job, why all the cameras? There's not a single blind spot. Even a mosquito wouldn't be able to fly in without being noticed."Calista's heart sank. She had been hoping the man would make things clear about her mother. It shouldn't have been hard for him to shed some light on the past.However, based on their exchange, the road ahead would no doubt be a tough one."Yeah."They be

Both Paul and Hector followed after Lucian dragged Calista away. Cade got up. He and Paul were friends. Stopping him wasn't an option. But, it was still possible for him to stall Hector.So, he took a step forward and stood in Hector's way. He smiled politely. Even his expression seemed courteous."Can we talk, Mr. Calloway?"Hector narrowed his eyes. His head was casually cocked to one side as he grinned."Sure. What do you want to talk about? Cammie?"Cade stared at him. Compared to his previous demeanor, he was now acting noticeably colder."What did you just call her?" "Cammie. The Yorksworths and Calloways are family friends. We visit each other during holidays and special occasions. I was the one to help her get acquainted with Capeton when she was first brought home to the Yorksworth family."Cade didn't know this. The Carters and Yorksworths shared a good relationship. But the Calloways weren't part of the same circle.Moreover, Hector had left for the military academ

The path was narrow, to begin with. With the crowd, it quickly got packed. Lucian hurriedly led Calista down the mountain with the flashlight of the person in front to guide their way.They couldn't use their phones for light unless necessary. If the battery ran out, they wouldn't be able to call for help even if something went wrong.Everyone else shared the sentiment. They had been there all afternoon. Their phone batteries were running low.Suddenly, Calista felt someone roughly hitting her on her right shoulder. It was a person behind who couldn't wait to rush forward.The mountain path was treacherous to begin with. Every step was taken with caution. Someone bumping into her had her stumbling into the nearby woods.Fortunately, Lucian had a firm grip on her. Despite the sudden turn of events, the man tightened his hold on her the moment she fell by the wayside.She didn't fall, but she twisted her ankle. Pain shot through her every time she moved. The delay had the group of

Calista felt them coming, but she couldn't muster the strength to look. On the other hand, Lucian's eyes remained sharp. He narrowed his eyes at the person who was traveling up the mountain path.It wasn't Cade. The person was alone and well-equipped with hiking equipment. He wore a specialized raincoat that was highly effective against blocking out the rain.His black military boots firmly gripped the slippery mountain trail as if it were a flat surface."Calista …"Seeing the half-conscious Calista held tightly in Lucian's arms, the man rushed to their side. It was Hector. Lucian's tense body finally relaxed.He asked, "Why are you alone?"Hector bent down to check on Calista and sneered when he heard Lucian's words."I'm here to see if you've kicked the bucket yet. If you're not dead, allow me to kick you down the mountain."Lucian said nothing. Hector fastened the flashlight to the buckle on his waist and reached out to take Calista out of Lucian's arms.Lucian instinctive

There was a stormy look in Lucian's eyes as he stared at the pair."Keep your filthy paws to yourself."Hector retracted his hand from Calista's forehead and turned it over several times."You mean this?"He raised a brow at Lucian and stuck his hand back to her forehead in a provocative manner again. He also stroked her head.Calista didn't think a man soon to turn thirty would still be this childish. Before she could stop him, he had stroked her hair so vigorously that it resembled a nest."Do you know what a proper ex-husband should be doing? He should act dead. You, on the other hand, keep returning like a corpse that refuses to die while dragging others down with you."Just as Lucian was about to lift his covers and get out of bed, the nurse returned with a tray and handed him a thermometer."Take your temperature."Then, she turned to Paul, who was still seated on the stool, and said softly, "I'm sorry, sir. It's getting late. This hospital has a rule that states that fa
