-Elise and Ariel didn’t smile and just stared at what was going on.
“You three are bullying me!” Rylantha stomped her feet angrily, almost creating a hole in the ground.
“What’s the problem with that? Don’t ever think that you can bully anyone as you wish. You have no
friends, but everyone else does. We’ve already been gracious to you. If it had been someone else, you
would have been beaten to death!” Narissa shouted as she waved her fists.
Rylantha trembled slightly in fear but when she realized Narissa was only scaring her, she yelled, “Fine!
I’ll remember what all of you did today and one day, I’ll get even!”
She then brushed past Ariel and exited the store, knocking on Ariel’s shoulder in the process.
Unbeknownst to them, Owen was standing in a quiet corner, watching everything. He quickly followed
Rylantha when she left.
Rylantha walked to the parking lot, cursing Ariel as she took out her car keys. The moment she opened
the car door, a man’s voice rang out from behind. “Miss Abbott, do you want to settle your score with
them?”
Meanwhile, as Elise, Ariel, and Narissa exited the shopping mall, they noticed Alexander’s car parked
on the side of the road.
They had originally planned to go shopping somewhere else. Seeing Alexander’s car, they were
concerned that something happened and therefore got into the car.
“Why are you here? Don’t you have something to work on?” Elise asked.
“The person who keeps an eye on Owen reported that he is in this mall, but he hasn’t shown up yet. I’m
afraid he’ll suspect you and do something to you because of what happened earlier. Hence, I rushed
here.”
While Alexander spoke, he looked intently at the shopping mall.
“You previously complimented my acting, so how would Owen sense that something is amiss?” Elise
teased.
Alexander’s solemn expression was immediately replaced by a smile. “Your acting is flawless, wifey.
I’m just concerned that Owen is a petty jerk. As you know, most men are not as responsible as your
husband, and those useless men love to blame women.”
“Okay. You passed.”
Perhaps because her children and Alexander had spoiled her, Elise now enjoyed teasing Alexander,
expecting him to appease her.
She was behaving more and more like a child.
“Is there any sort of reward for me?” He extended his neck and brought his face closer to hers.
Ariel covered her face tactfully with her hands. “You both can treat me as if I don’t exist. Do whatever
you want.”
On the other hand, Narissa acted completely differently. She turned around to face them and said,
“Just kiss. I’ll be watching.”
That made Elise embarrassed and she quickly pushed Alexander to the side.
Given that Owen posed a danger, Elise did not feel comfortable continuing shopping. And so, they
immediately returned home.
…
The next morning, Alexander and Elise arrived at Zephyr’s house.
The scar-removing balm specifically made for Elise was successfully concocted and she needed to test
its effectiveness today.
Zephyr brought the balm out in a small trolley. Alexander took a look at it and noticed that the balm was
dark green and contained in a porcelain bowl, looking just like a normal clay mask.
“Would it have harmful effects on pregnant women?” he asked.
“Don’t worry. Every ingredient I used for this is safe for the body,” Zephyr answered.
At that, Alexander nodded. “Okay.”
“Remove your mask,” Zephyr then told Elise.
She nodded and reached for the hidden button with her hand. However, the moment she touched it,
she immediately retracted her hands and lowered her head, her expression complicated.
Alexander saw through her and started walking outside. “I’ll wait for you outside.”
When he finished his sentence, he was already outside the door.
Zephyr took a look at Alexander’s leaving figure before turning his gaze to Elise. “Alexander wouldn’t
mind.”
“I know,” Elise said as she began to remove her mask. “But I do. Everyone, particularly women, wishes
to maintain their perfect image in the eyes of their lovers. You’ll understand this when you meet
someone you love.”
“I won’t have that opportunity, then.”
He took the balm and placed it on his hand. “Relax. Though I cannot guarantee that this balm will
restore your face to its previous appearance, I am confident that it will tighten your skin and reduce
wrinkles, just like a normal mask would. It will be nothing but beneficial, so don’t be too nervous.”
“Okay.” Elise then took a deep breath and said, “Apply it on me now.”
Zephyr became solemn as well as he applied a thick layer of the balm to her face with a special tool.
All they had to do now was wait for Elise’s skin to absorb the balm.
An hour later, Zephyr began to clear up the balm. Both of them were extremely nervous when he
touched the scar area.
He paused for a moment and exhaled deeply before scraping the balm away, layer by layer. Then, he
wiped away the residue with a towel.
However, the result was unsatisfactory.
After hearing his disappointed sigh, Elise knew the outcome. Despite her disappointment, she took the
mirror and pretended to examine her face in a relaxed manner.
Zephyr sighed once more. “I indeed have things that I can’t do now. My abilities have deteriorated as I
grew older.”
“Don’t say so, Zephyr. It’s only the first time and I notice that the scar has lightened. At the very least,
this shows that the approach of your research is correct.” Elise began to console Zephyr instead.
“It’s great that you have such positive thinking. Be optimistic and everything is possible. Don’t worry. I
will certainly assist you in regaining your appearance, as I promised.”
“Thank you. I’m counting on you.”
Elise then put on her mask again.
Standing off to one side, Zephyr looked at her with mixed emotions, not daring to say anything else.
After she had finished tidying up, he quietly followed her outside.
Alexander was standing by the door. As soon as he saw Elise coming out, he immediately went over to
her. “Honey, do you feel sick anywhere?”
He wasn’t concerned with the outcome; he was only concerned with whether the balm had caused her
any harm.
“I’m fine.” Elise avoided mentioning the outcome. She then smilingly continued, “Zephyr is really gifted.
I believe he can make this a success in no time.”
“You’re right.” Alexander did not pursue further.
He knew whatever he said at such a moment would affect Elise’s mood.
Zephyr felt defeated too. “Perhaps we could ask Irvin to work on this with me. Kids are always full of
daring ideas and we might have a breakthrough with him onboard.”
Both Elise and Alexander did not say anything, seemingly agreeing to Zephyr’s suggestion. The three
of them then made their way to the Griffith Manor.
When they arrived at the door, they ran into Narissa, who had come over to kill time.
“I’m here at the right time! Are you all going out? Take me along!”
“We’re not. We went to Zephyr’s house earlier,” Elise responded.
“I see.” Narissa was still angry at Zephyr and did not want to continue discussing him. “Oh, my father
just called and said he’ll be going back with you all and won’t be going anywhere else again after that.
He says he’s going back to where he came from.”
“Great. We are all in Cittadel and we won’t have to travel far just to meet each other in the future.
Otherwise, even a quick get-together will be difficult.”
Finally, there was something to be glad about, which successfully improved Elise’s mood.
At this point, Alexander’s phone rang. The rest of them tacitly kept quiet.
A few seconds after placing his phone to his ear, Alexander nonchalantly responded, “Okay.” With that,
he ended the call, his expression solemn.
Elise was worried that he had run into some difficulties, so she asked, “What happened?”
“Matthew escaped.” Alexander sighed deeply and muttered, “The car escorting him crashed, injuring
Jackson and rendering him unconscious. Matthew was nowhere to be found when Jackson awoke.”
