“However, we’ve already engaged the best tracking team, and they’ve been dispatched to pursue. Those people should have no chance of escape.”
Upon hearing that, Sebastian responded calmly. “If you find any leads, report them to me immediately.
“Yes.” Malcolm nodded in agreement.
Following that, the discussion was almost concluded.
Sebastian told them to go back and rest before returning to his room.
Madelyn was truly exhausted. She had already fallen into a deep sleep and was even emitting faint snores from her little nose.
Sebastian sat by the bed, his dark eyes reflecting her adorable petite face.
Lost in thought. Sebastian suddenly let out a soft sigh.
The group stayed in Rodunst for a few more days.
Though the issues in Rodunst had been mostly resolved, Sebastian’s injury hadn’t fully healed. Naturally. Madelyn wouldn’t allow him to travel around, so they stayed put and patiently nursed his wounds.
During the meeting, Sebastian had no choice but to send Wesley and Harriet back first. “Wesley, we’ve mostly settled matters here, but there’s still a lot of work to be done back home. You should go ahead and handle them.”
Wesley glanced at Sebastian’s arm, promising, “All right, you should stay here until you recover.”
Sebastian nodded slightly.
However, upon hearing that Sebastian was planning to send her back, Harriet’s proud face instantly turned
ashen.
If she and Wesley left first, wouldn’t Madelyn and Sebastian be alone here, getting cozy with each other?
Harriet immediately let out a sheepish laugh and tactfully declined, “There’s no need, Sebastian. I’d rather stay here and sort out the matters concerning the mines. Wesley can handle the domestic matters. When the time comes, I’ll return with you.”
Return with me?
Upon hearing that, Sebastian’s brow furrowed slightly. He promptly dismissed the suggestion, saying, “You don’t need to worry about this matter here. I’ll have some of the senior executives handle the follow–up. You should just return to your work.”
“But I…” Harriet opened her mouth, wanting to say something else, but Sebastian’s expression had already
darkened.
Reluctantly, Harriet nodded. “All right then.”

on, everyone. It’s time for lunch”
Then, she enthusiastically opened the packed lunch and distributed a portion to everyone.
For a moment, everyone in the meeting room felt somewhat awkward.

Watching Madelyn revert back to her usual boisterous and carefree demeanor, Wesley suddenly had his doubts.
Was the assertive woman who stood her ground against him yesterday really Madelyn?
Did he see wrongly? Or was she possessed by some kind of spirit that day?
However, ever since Madelyn argued with him, Wesley hadn’t target her anymore.
Over the past few days, he had been looking at Madelyn with a certain scrutiny.
Wesley suddenly realized that if he observed Madelyn closely, he really couldn’t figure her out. Just how many sides did this woman have?
Why could she be one way today and completely different the next day?
What exactly was going on in that little head of hers?
After everyone had finished their meal, they dispersed.
Since Wesley and Harriet had booked their afternoon flight, they were going to head back to pack their bags.
After everyone had left, only Madelyn and Sebastian remained in the conference room.
The thought of spending the next few days undisturbed and alone with him made Madelyn’s heart blossom with joy.
Suddenly, this joy was abruptly interrupted.
A phone call came through. When Madelyn saw that it was from Janessa, her brows immediately furrowed tightly.
After some thought, she decided to answer the call.
The moment the call connected, Janessa asked anxiously from the other end of the line, “Hello, Madelyn? What’s going on? I haven’t seen you at school these past few days. I hope nothing’s wrong…
Madelyn sneered coldly. Can you be any more fake, Janessa?
She purposely replied, “Oh, don’t worry. Sebastian and I went abroad for our hone having so much fun that I forgot to tell you. What’s up? Do you need something?”
con. We’ve been
“What? You two went on a honeymoon?” Upon hearing that, Janessa nearly let out a shriek.
When did this happen, and why was I unaware of it?

Immediately. Janessa fell silent

Without a doubt, Madelyn knew that Janessa’s face on the other end of the phone must be quite a sight to
However, Madelyn couldn’t be bothered to continue this pointless conversation with her. She simply said, “We’re going out to watch a movie later, so if there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now”
With that, Madelyn hung up without waiting for a response.
Looking at her phone, Janessa seethed with anger and ground her teeth in frustration.
Dmn it, Madelyn. You’ve got to be kidding me!
Afternoon, at the military arms headquarters in Rodunst.
Ever since Madelyn returned with her team that day, Grimo and his crew immediately erased all surveillance footage and retreated.
Over the past few days, although there seemed to be no apparent activity on their part, they were discreetly monitoring Madelyn’s situation.
When Adelar returned that day, he truthfully reported the crazy things Madelyn had done.
Upon hearing that she had disguised herself as Morgana and even had her people pretend to be Morgana’s one–eyed subordinates, Grimo’s emerald green eyes widened in astonishment.
Grimo was shocked. What kind of monster is this woman? How does she have nerves of steel? Who gave her the courage?
Adelar was nearly losing his mind. Every time he thought about that day, his heart would race with fear. He couldn’t help but say, “Boss, I really think that woman is not simple. If she were just a prominent young lady, how could she possess such a strong aura? Even, even…”
Despite witnessing countless battles and killings before, Adelar was now somewhat hesitant and stammering.
“Even what?” Grimo’s strikingly handsome face inexplicably turned serious.
“There was even a moment when I thought this woman was Morgana herself,” Adelar said, his voice trembling.
Upon hearing those words, Grimo felt a faint surprise.
Suddenly, a bizarre thought struck him. Could it be possible that Madelyn was a part of Oceanic Empire?
Otherwise, how could she, a mere civilian, know about his arsenal? It was even less rhusible for her to boldly demand people from him, let alone venture into such a dangerous place an
nerge unscathed.
The more Grimo thought about it, the more he realized that Madelyn was not as simple as she seemed.
Immediately, he ordered, “Adelar, find an opportunity in the next few days to make contact with this. woman again. I think I need to see her one more
