From the moment she had looked over, Bryson hadn’t spared her a single glance.

She detested him for it! She despised his icy indifference!

“Melina? Melina?”

Tyshawn’s voice, laced with concern, snapped her out of her reverie.

“Grandpa has given his blessing for the engagement.

Let’s head back to your family to sort out the details.

“Okay.

” Melina mustered a weak smile, rose, and gave Franco a respectful nod.

“Franco, I’ll leave you to your conversation.

After ending the call, Dotson felt increasingly uneasy as he entered the White family residence.

Maloney’s earlier words echoed in his mind, troubling him.

Hannah guided him to a room upstairs.

“You’ll stay here for now.

If it isn’t to your Liking, I’ll have the butler prepare another.

“Of course not!” Dotson immediately felt a pang of guilt.

“Uh… Boss, may I use your phone? Mine has run out of battery.

I need to call Dilan to see how he’s doing overseas.

Without any suspicion, Hannah handed over her unlocked phone.

“Go ahead and make the call, but please return it to the study afterward.

I need to get some work done.

“Absolutely!”

A wave of relief washed over Dotson as he watched her leave.

He quickly bowed his head and started browsing through the text messages.

Luckily, she had not erased any recent messages.

One of the Latest messages caught his attention.

“Leviathan? Oh my!” Dotson gasped, then covered his mouth fast and looked towards the study.

ALL was quiet, signaling Hannah was deeply absorbed in her work and had not heard him.

Although relieved, Dotson still felt uneasy as his thoughts raced.

Could Leviathan have actually escaped to Cadilind?

It felt like there was no way it could happen.

Yet, holding the phone tightly, he remembered Maloney’s instructions.

He quickly moved to another room, closed the door behind him, and dialed Maloney’s number.

Meanwhile, at the Mitchell mansion, Bryson led Maloney to a secluded room on the third floor.

“Nobody usually comes here, and the butler won’t disturb you.

You’re free to explore as you wish.

The room was spacious and brightly lit, with large windows that Maloney found appealing.

“Not bad…”

He was going to speak more, but then his phone rang.

He pulled out his phone and saw Dotson’s name on the screen.
