Chapter 1591 I Will Grant You Your Death
Since there was nothing wrong with him, Vinson got himself discharged. Nevertheless, he began to feel
increasingly worried, as there was still no news on Susanne.
Given the number of enemies he had, he was unable to figure out who it was that took his mother.
After returning to Nightshire Manor, he went to his study and call up all his contacts, hoping to find a
lead from them.
Well aware of how busy he was, Arielle returned to her room and studied the CT scan results in greater
detail. For some strange reason, a niggling sense of dread continued to bother her despite the test
results showing that he was fine.
After being holed up in her room for the entire afternoon, she still didn’t come out for dinner until
Geoffrey informed Vinson about it.
Once he came out of his study, Vinson headed upstairs to the bedroom where he saw Arielle so
engrossed with the CT scan that she didn’t even notice him coming in.
‘‘Didn’t the doctor give me a clean bill of health? Why are you still fixated on it?’‘
Vinson walked up to Arielle’s side as he spoke. It was only when she heard his voice that she regained
her senses.
In front of Vinson, she held none of her suspicions back. ‘‘Even though the results of your examination
showed nothing, I still feel that something isn’t right since this is your second fainting episode.’‘ Looking
at him, Arielle suggested, ‘‘Let’s go for another more detailed checkup tomorrow.’‘
Vinson felt that Arielle was overreacting due to her excessive concern for him. He then pulled her into
his arms and gave her a light peck on the forehead. ‘‘I know my body very well, and there are no issues
at all. Your imagination is just running wild from being over-worried about me.’‘
If Susanne hadn’t disappeared, he would definitely get a detailed checkup so that she could have
peace of mind. But now, his mother took priority over everything else.
When Arielle remained silent and put on a gloomy expression, Vinson pondered for a moment before
adding, ‘‘If you’re still concerned, I’ll go for the checkup once we find my mom, all right?’‘
‘‘Okay.’‘ She, too, was cognizant that the search for Susanne was more important, and could
understand why he was delaying the checkup.
Back in Turlen, Lawrence had switched sides, causing a huge change in the balance of power. As a
result, the power struggle between the queen mother and Dylan spilled out from the shadows and into
the open.
That day, the queen mother led her men to confront Dylan but was blocked by Sybil instead.
‘‘Get out of my way!’‘ the queen mother snapped while shooting him a piercing gaze.
As one of Dylan’s men, Sybil had long felt indignant over the queen mother seizing power.
Furthermore, Dylan had ordered him to stop the queen mother from entering. As a result, he would
refuse to let her pass even if she shot him to death.
Bowing slightly, Sybil informed her in a respectful tone, ‘‘Your Majesty, the king is busy and won’t be
able to see you.’‘
The queen mother stared coldly at Sybil. If looks could kill at that moment, he would have died
thousand times over.
‘‘Sybil, I’m the king’s mother and also the queen mother of Turlen. Aren’t you worried that I’d punish
you for getting in my way?’‘ She stared daggers at Sybil.
Nevertheless, the latter shook his head. ‘‘Even so, the old king has ordered me to only obey the current
king for the rest of my life.’‘
‘‘Since death is what you want, I shall grant it to you!’‘ The moment she finished, the queen mother
pointed a gun at Sybil’s head.
