Chapter 1092 The Secret
At that, Natalie turned to Anna. She felt that everything Anna was saying was particularly harsh as if the latter was trying
to agitate Varre. However, Natalie could see that Anna’s words were also hurting Anna herself.
Varre was equally affected. His already pale face turned ashen. In the end, it was a lose-lose situation.
Natalie wanted to say something to lessen the tension of the atmosphere, but she did not know what Anna and Varre
were hung up about, so she dared not voice careless words. All she could do was hold Anna’s clenched fist in hopes of
making Anna calm down.
Varre could see that his daughter did not wish to forgive him. In a hoarse, quiet voice, he said, “Annie, give me the item
that you want to replicate, and I’ll do it as quickly as I can.”

With that, Anna stood up and left the room.
Natalie did not hurry after Anna. Instead, she turned to Varre and inclined her head. “To be honest, I was the one
who asked Anna to ask for this favor. My daughter’s life is on the line for this. Thank you.”
Varre said, “I should be the one thanking you. I didn’t know how I should meet her, but you’ve given me a chance to
do that.”
Unable to stop herself, Natalie asked, “Do you know about your health condition?”
Although Natalie did not take the elder man’s pulse, she could see from his pallor that he must have cancer. Late-
stage cancer, as a matter of fact. Something that surgery, chemotherapy, and acupuncture could not treat.
“I do.”
“Then, Anna…”
Varre shook his head. “It is fate. I hope you’ll keep this a secret for me. I’m already happy to be able to see her in
my last few days in this world. She despises me, but she came to ask for a favor from me for your sake, so you
must have done something exceptionally great for her at one point. I’ll definitely replicate this jade key for you.”
A wave of complicated feelings washed over Natalie when she heard that, but in the end, she nodded solemnly at
him.
Varre opened the box in front of him. When he saw the jade key inside, a look of shock crossed his face.
“This is…”
Although jade keys were rare, they were not one-of-a-kind.
Yet, Varre was stunned by the beauty and elegance of it. At the same time, a thought popped into his head, and he
blurted out, “Where did you get this key from?”

“I don’t know,” Natalie confessed. “I only know that this jade key must mean something special because a hidden force is
trying to snatch it from my hands. I don’t know if this is a key for some kind of mechanism or if it’s a symbol of power.”
Varre closed his eyes.
“This is fate. Fate! I’ve suffered so much for this jade key, but who knew I was going to be able to hold it in my hands
before I die?”
Natalie’s brows snapped together when she heard him, and she asked, “Mr. Varre, what is this key? Why is it so
important?”
“I’ve never seen this key myself before, but I’ve read about its description in the books.” When Varre opened his eyes
again, a melancholic look was in his eyes. “Rumors had it, there is a secret room in the royal mausoleum of Loang, and
there are plenty of priceless treasures in that secret room. The room was made with ancient meteorites, and they cannot
be destroyed unless one uses dynamites. However, if one uses dynamite, the treasures would be destroyed as well.
There was only one key to the secret room, and it was a jade key. If my guess is right, this must be the one.”
