Chapter 983 After finishing their meal, Sylvia and Franklin took a stroll near the hotel.
The sun was shining brightly, casting its rays upon the couple. Franklin's dazzling silver hair attracted the attention of many.
With a cold and stern expression, Franklin possessed a handsface that one dare not gaze upon. Coupled with his snow-white hair, he looked like a male protagonist straight out of an anime.
Even bold girls approached him, ignoring Sylvia by his side, and directly struck up a conversation. "Excuse me, are you a celebrity? Or are you cosplaying?" Franklin exuded an icy aura and ignored the girl, holding Sylvia's soft hand as they continued walking.
The girl felt ignored and muttered with embarrassment, "What's so great about him? Is it necessary to ignore people?" Sylvia's clear eyes curved into a crescent moon shape as she turned to look at the girl, her eyes twinkling with a smile. "In my husband's eyes, there is onlyforever. So... it's normal for him not to see you." "You!" The girl rolled her eyes in anger.
Being showered with this display of affection, she becinfuriated and her face turned red, but she couldn't find any words to say.
"Naughty." Franklin reached out his large hand and affectionately ruffled her hair.
It was a rare moment of relaxation for the couple, and it was even rarer to see Sylvia intentionally showing off.
A warm feeling surged in his heart, and the indulgence in his eyes almost overflowed.
There was a hint of sweetness in the air.
Scurious and skeptical passersby secretly captured this scene and uploaded it online.
"An unexpected encounter with a couple. The man is so handsome, and the woman is beautiful. Especially with that silver hair, he looks just like a male protagonist from an anime. Thumbs up!" This passerby was a college student, whose fans on social media were limited to her classmates.
But unexpectedly, her classmates started to share it crazily, and then the entire school began sharing it... As it continued to be shared, it caught the attention of a local influencer.
And then... once the influencer shared it, their fans started sharing it too.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThings quickly spiraled out of control and shot up to the top of the trending list.
This... was getting eerie.
Casually taking a walk on the street could turn someone into an intesensation in Aettosa. This...
Carolyn and Sara, who had already returned to their hotel room, were bored lying on their beds and scrolling through their phones. They stumbled upon the local trending topics.
"Miss Andrews and Mr. Maskelyne are such a perfect match. Even with his silver hair, Mr. Maskelyne is astonishingly handsome." Sara couldn't help but exclaim. "These two are trending everywhere? They were always trending back home, and now they're trending abroad too." "It's mainly because they're good-looking." Carolyn smirked, her lips curling into a smile. "Sara, you're not young anymore. Why don't you have a boyfriend?" Sara didn't expect the topic to suddenly shift to her.
Her face stiffened, and then she forced an awkward smile. "Me... I'm like this. Who would be interested in me?" "What's wrong with you? You're beautiful, have a great job, and are talented. Whoever marries you would be lucky." Carolyn smiled again and continued scrolling through her phone without saying anything else.
Sara's mind drifted further away, and it took her a while to regain her composure before lowering her head sadly.
* In a dark room within a mansion in Aettosa...
A hoarse voice of a middle-aged man sounded, "Damn it! Why hasn't it reached the final stage yet?" "Sir, the woman by his side has hired people from the Blood Medical Sect... so there might be schanges in the situation," a young man reported in a low voice.
"Changes? I only allow success, not failure! Kill all those from the Blood Medical Sect for me!" The man's voice was filled with malice. "He can't go anywhere; he must return to my side!" "Sir... the Blood Medical Sect holds a prominent position in the red-light district. We dare not easily go against them..." The young man lowered his head as he spoke.
"Just a small red-light district. I'll destroy them!" The man said irritably. "What's there to fear about a small family? Just kill them all forand leave that woman with no way out!" "You should believe in this poison, Countless Love Ties. It's said that no one can solve it; we were told that when we obtained it. After all... this poison was created by the infamous poison master Phoenix. But this Phoenix is quite mysterious..." The young man anxiously spoke. Killing several people wasn't easy, especially if it caused riots or international attention; it would be more trouble than it was worth.
The price paid just to bring Franklin back... would be too great.
"He is mine; he can only be mine! That woman is trash; she doesn't deserve to have him by her side!" The man shouted angrily, slapping everything on the table onto the floor.
There was an immediate sound of things crashing to the ground.
The young man was startled and quickly tried to calm the middle-aged man down. "Sir, please calm down. Just wait a few more days; the Blood Medical Sect won't be able to save him for sure. Then it will only be you..." "What about that bastard Tyrell? I handed him over to Tyrell, but what did that bastard do to him? Go kill Tyrell and his wife for me! Otherwise, bringhis head!" The man suppressed his rage and gave orders to the young man again.
The young man sighed. "Tyrell has been supplying us with medicine for years..." "So what?" The middle-aged man coldly interrupted. "He's just a servant; what does he count for? Go!" The young man dared not say anything more and quietly left the room.
The dark room immediately returned to silence.
After the young man left the room, several men approached him. "What did the boss say?" "Kill Tyrell." The young man had a handsand cold face, but his eyes showed no emotion, as if they were still water.
"The boss actually wants to kill him?" One of the men was surprised by this unexpected turn of events.
The boss found out about what yrell has done to that man over the 'ears and becextremely angry.
So... you know what to do." The 'oung man sneered. "His tolerance or Tyrell has reached its limit." "Enough talk; let's go." The men immediately turned around and walked away.
At this moment, Tyrell had no idea that he was facing imminent danger.
He was sunbathing in the courtyard while holding a black cat.
Mrs. Maskelyne brought two glasses of red wine towards him. He reached out and took one of them, swirling it gently before taking a sip.
"Franklin has arrived in Aettosa; it seems he has been poisoned," Mrs. Maskelyne said with a seductive smile. "He was poisoned with Countless Love Ties, which is famous for being incurable." "It's not entirely incurable; that person has an antidote. It's just that we don't know if he will save him.
After all these years, there hasn't been anyone who truly cared for him," Tyrell said sarcastically.
"We have done many things for him as a couple, but what happened in the end? Others gave us better rewards." A hint of irony flashed in Tyrell's eyes. "Why bother with him? It's disappointing." Mrs. Maskelyne pouted her lips, her words just falling off when she suddenly glanced towards a corner of the mansion's wall. She narrowed her eyes slightly and forcefully threw her glass in that direction before grabbing Tyrell from his chair and speaking sternly, "Let's go!" Tyrell immediately followed her lead as they ran forward.
There were too many people who wanted them dead! While running, Tyrell activated the emergency communicator on his waist.
He always carried this life-saving device with him.
As expected, after activating the communicator, dozens of black-clad bodyguards rushed out from the mansion towards the men who had climbed over the wall.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA fight broke out immediately.
Meanwhile, Tyrell and his wife took advantage of the chaos to escape.
Mrs. Maskelyne drove a black BMW out of the garage and rushed out of the mansion.
But soon after, several cars suddenly appeared from one road and began chasing after them relentlessly.
"So many assassins sent this time!" Mrs. Maskelyne exclaimed while glancing at the rearview mirror as she tightly gripped the steering wheel.
Their car sped like lightning while several cars behind them refused to give up.
They seemed determined to ram into them.
Seeing that they were driving on an ordinary road that led to an overpass bridge and then descended from it, revealing a vast sea ahead...
A coldness flashed in Tyrell's eyes. "Abandon the car; let's jump into the sea." Mrs. Maskelyne forcefully drove the car towards the beach until the seawater submerged its wheels.
The two quickly jumped out of the car and dove into the sea.
The cars chasing after them could only see an empty vehicle; its passengers had disappeared without a trace.
"Search! Search thoroughly nearby!" The leader of the men wore a fierce expression.
The black-clad individuals immediately scattered around and searched various rocky areas.
After searching for quite stwithout any results, they reported back, "Can't find them." "They're not here either." "Damn it! They escaped. Let's go!" Back at the hotel, Sylvia and Franklin were completely unaware that they had bectrending topics.
After all, it wasn't their first ttrending online.
Franklin continued to review Lukas' case files, trying to find more evidence or another angle to approach it from.
Sylvia didn't disturb him; instead, she called her partners in the "Secretly Greatly" group chat. Zero: "Who's here? Lukas' case, is there anything that can help me? I'm currently in Aettosa." Privacy
