“Atlas, I’m very grateful that you came to pick me up, but I’m not a fan of the way you’re speaking to me!”

The man with the sideburns spoke in a displeased tone.

Atlas chuckled. “How did you know I was at Jonford? Did my elder brother contact you?”

His elder brother spent most of his time out of the country, and his phone number was always a foreign one whenever he contacted their

master.

“I don’t want to hear you talk about him. That asshole deliberately told you to use Eremochloa as an antidote. He was trying to poison you!”

The man with the sideburns spoke vehemently.

Atlas was stunned. “No way. He’s always nice to me!”

The man with the sideburns smacked the back of Atlas’ head. “I told

you to stop talking about him. Did you not hear me?”

“Bastard, how dare you slap Mr. Kennedy…”

The burly man sitting in the front passenger seat cried in outrage.

“Shut up!”

The man with the sideburns glared at the burly man.

That man’s mouth instantly sealed shut as if glue had been applied to

1. He could not open his mouth again no matter how hard he tried..

“Come on, let’s go visit your savior!”

The man with the sideburns crossed one leg over the other, a slight smile tugging at his lips.

“I just went to visit him. He’s not available today,” Atlas said while smiling. “You’ve only just returned home. I’ll book you a room at a grand hotel so that you can get some good rest!”

“That’s alright. Just take me to Royal Bay,” the man with the sideburns said calmly.

“How did you know he resides at Royal Bay?”

Atlas knew his master could do divination.

His master had his astrology chart and could use that to roughly

figure out where he was.

However, how had his master figured out exactly where his savior

lived?

The man with the sideburns closed his eyes and said, “Just take me

where I ask you to. Why do you always have so much crap to say?”

Nash had crafted several batches of Rejuvenation Pills at Royal Bay.

He was about to begin crafting Golden Onyx Pills when the Heavenly Masters Token hanging on the wall began emanating a faint golden

light.

Slightly stunned, a smile appeared on Nash’s face as he said, “Could

that be for me?”

He got to his feet and took the Heavenly Masters Token down,

stuffing it into his pocket before leaving the basement.

As he walked out, he bumped into Maria, who had just returned from

getting groceries.

“Good morning, sir!” Maria said while smiling brightly.

“Please brew a pot of the tea Duncan gifted, Maria. I’m expecting an

important guest!”

“Alright!”

Maria immediately headed to the living room and began brewing tea.

Nash lifted Melody into his arms and took her to the second floor.

Melody was awake, and her heart began thumping loudly as she lay in

Nash’s arms.

Nash could sense Melody’s quickening heartbeat. He smiled as he lowered his gaze and asked, “What’s the matter? Feeling shy?”

Melody did not even have the strength to lift a finger or talk.

However, she gathered all her strength and shook her head when she

heard Nash teasing her.

She was the daughter of the richest man of Sagen and was a frequent patron of nightclubs. Why would she be shy?

Even if she was feeling shy, she would never admit it.

Nash smiled but did not say anything as he brought her to one of the

guest rooms. He gently placed her on the bed and pulled a blanket

over her.

After looking around the room, he spotted a remote control on the bedside table.

He placed the remote control in Melody’s hand and guided her thumb across the buttons as he said, “This remote is compatible with all the smart appliances in this room.

“The top button is for the air conditioning, the bottom button is for the television, the one on the right is for the lights, the one on the right is for the curtains, and the button in the middle will allow you to

communicate with whoever is downstairs!”

Melody gripped the remote control tightly. Her cracked lips fluttered slightly as she said in a hoarse voice, “I… want… some water…’

After drinking the medicine Nash brewed, her blood constantly felt like it was boiling. She was constantly dehydrated.

Nash looked around the room and took a bottle of water from the

table. After twisting the cap open, he sat by the bed and helped Melody sit upright.

Melody could not steady herself, so she lay in Nash’s arms. In this

position, she felt her heart rate increasing again.

Nash helped her drink half a bottle of water before he asked gently,”

Do you want any more?”

Melody shook her head slowly. Her thoughts were beginning to feel

muddled.
